Clown Buff idea
What if Clown got a secondary power: Banana Peel
The Clown takes a short moment, about a couple of seconds, to eat a banana and drop the peel in front of him. A survivor that steps on the banana peel slips and falls into the dying state for 5 seconds, after which the survivor gets up and returns to their original health state. A teammate can help the survivor that slipped to reduce the 5 seconds to 1 second. While being downed by the banana peel the Clown can pick up the survivor and hook them.

What if they just turned the clown into Carol Baskins and instead of gas, she throws sardine oil. When you get enough oil stacks, then a tiger pounces on you and she can git you.
