#Serial Killer Rework
1 messages · Page 3 of 1
It will be even funnier if I am evil because I keep evil wills on default LOL
To be fully honest I think that’s a valid counter strategy if you want to do it but it will take a lot of effort
I don’t think it will be meta for that reason
But I think that’s a valid strategy low key
then SK will just ignore you
-# It can easily be fixed by adding the copyying messages feature from TOS1 so you can just copy the will whenever it is posted
-# true
waste of time copying a will of someone whose going to such extremes to counter 1 role that spawns in modes where it has the lowest wr in the game
You can whisper someone “if my will has this word in it then I am fake”
That would be a way easier wa to do it
LOL
@lusty oyster has leveled up! (85 ➜ 86)
oh god
You’d have to hide it in the Will without the SK realising tho
Idk this seems like fun counterplay to me personally
How about "here's a code word, if you don't know it in 3 days you got disguised"
the jester in question:
Yeah that works too
Exactly LUL
me taking on years and millions of debt so when the SK disguises as me they will be financially fucked
This is why it’s valid counterplay to me

It’s a social counterplay
LOL
I mean the thing is though as SK
Me visiting every arsonist in town rq
The SK doesn't have all information of the person they copy, which is where you can catch them
if you're disguising it should be someone you know a lot about
ask the sk if they are a homosexual, if they answer with anything other than "yes i am a catboy" hang them
else this happens
Mhm exaxtly
I whisper a lot so I'd probably just figure out a bunch of shit on one person and then disguise as them
i mean
also this just made me remember
true
literally SK now
I don’t think it’s an issue personally
Exactly LUL
when they become the new person they get to see all the new's whisper but can't see their old whispers
but thats also weird because you'd be altering the message log which is usually the same
wdym new
Afaik
oh you can't see your old whispers
Easier solution: SK gets whisper reading and shuts down whispers entirely
They see all of 12’s past whisper contents?
the sk learning everyone's roles d2
Idk why we are coming up with solutions to this when it’s not a problem
Perfect for my seer claim
If you have valid counterplay it’s not needed
Giving SK whisper reading could be a shrimple buff tho in that regard yes
If it needed it ever
3 whispers 11 "amogus"
4 whispers 12 "FUCK YOU"
11 hops into 12
11 (12) can no longer see "amogus" form 3 but 11 (12) can now see the "FUCK YOU" form 4
We could try it out in its current state and then fix any issues if they become very oppressive
SK now has "I'm All Ears" from ghost face DBD
Exactly
.
Real LOL
SK learns whenever townies fast vault
And sees their aura
oh my god i just thought of something stupid
but i can't say it here
Lethal peruser my beloved
If you can’t say it here is it worth saying at all
peruser
Lethal purse
Lethal Purse
Lethal Percy
Lethal Performance
I can’t believe that serial killer now has the ability that when they basic attack the obsession, the obsession is given a terror radius and the serial killer is undetectable for 30 seconds
aw fuck it
Exactly LUL
imagine as wilding you find out it's an SK game
because 1 and 2 are fucking erping
and then suddenly 1 and 3 countinue the erp
😭
Oh wonderful
Uuuhhhh
SK should read whispers like Wildling LOL
I mean if someone has issue with it delete it but otherwise it’s fine loool
I think whisper reading would have synergy with this ability
Werewolf needs something else
fair
Make all NK read whispers 
no
Jackal: 😭

Every evil can now read whispers
Whisper stonks drops to an all time low
I mean, just make your will hard to Imitate if it's THAT much of a concern
(Which it isn't, since you're countering fucking SK)
Wildling is now out of a job
(Reading whispers is literally all it has going for it)
Town would never whisper. Therefore, whispering would confirm you as evil. Therefore, no players would ever whisper.
The only real suggestion is SK reading whispers
Anyways, what I actually came here to say was that I don't think anything around this idea should be implemented, because I guarantee you I could find a way to metagame it.
I am gonna be honest I think you’re worried over nothing, especially if sk can see whispere
Is Disguise a Basic Attack, just like the regular attack?
yes
do u think it should be Powerful
That would let it take a monarch's place as well as dealing with other NKs
overthrow mon 
I think maybe it should
is it refunded if it fails?
So Monarch isn't immune to it
yea you do not lose the charge
upon failure
I don't see the point. If you try to take an NK, you out them anyway
Monarch
Hmmm
Right yeah its worse than poss jump since poss ignored healing
But healing mech is different in this game
just kill the knights?
While there are knights it would mean monarch cannot be SK
Powerful i dont think is a huge buff
Maybe Disguise should just silently fail if your target was healed , but otherwise bypass any form of defense?
So you don't fuck over TP's, but you can bypass monarch defense
it doesnt rly fuck over tps
cleric gives powerful defense
it still saves
it just makes monarch not immune to it
i think disguise should work this way:
- upon using disguise, you gain invincible defense and rb immunity, and you get 40 million dollars in real life
I was talking about making disguise ignore defense unless TP was on them
I figured out a way to metagame this, I think
Basically yeah
Man tol poss ain’t lookin so hot now
Which makes sense i guess
I think possessor had a 15% winrate
A person who gets stolen will die on their screen, correct?
Lmao
you kill the person you disguise as yes
and take their place
So if that person disconnects, but you as the SK are in their body, what happens?
assuming there are no TPs protecting the knights
You don't learn when dead players dc iirc
You can
also tactical leaving is bannable
they become your corpse so it'll show as if their corpse dcd
under foul play
They're already dead
their corpse show as your old name
so its gonna show as they dcd
the names are permanently swapped
ah right so if they leave, your old body shows as DCd?
Transporter for names 
when does it leave tho
yeah ig
i dont understand the logic
So, we can metagame this. Any person who gets killed by SK, "leave if you got skinstolen"
Same with metagaming Jinx ig
If this worked they would be banned
And it doesn't work as tuba just said
its gonna show as sk's old name dced
Disguising as someone because they are confirmed : Bad, Unoriginal, Metaslave play
Disguising as someone because they have a funny name : Smart, Original, Probably a throw
Tactical Leaving is foul play and suspendable
And it doesn't work in this instance anyway
You could also just fix this by not showing if dead players leave at all but also yeah thats tactical leaving
That would be GREAT
ToL did a lot to make poss work (can you believe it originally got implemented with a role that can read dead chat?)
oh my god LOL
idk
wait
I dislike powerful attacks bc it makes shroud worse
Medium I do not miss at all
Early tol was actually drugged up design and it was GLORIOUS
shroud needs to focus coven
Transporter on the other hand..
😭😭😭 oh my god LOL
I miss transporter
shroud can evade detection a lot
Shroud can evade taxes a lot
Don’t worry
POSS HAD INFINITE JUMPS (:

I think the only buff Shroud needs is to make Shrouded players appear as Shroud to ALL revealers and not just Murder.
I love evading taxes
atp what's the point of attacking
(ignore the 1 million possessors dead)
we believe in SK supremacy here
don't know, but I figured i'd throw in my 2 cents
cool
medium is good concept but ppl leaving ruined the whole role
Because poss in tol has always had the “force someone to attack another” so always jumping could get you knight killed
Medium was a bad concept imo
It hard countered 4 roles and only really confirmed each other
I mean, hard counters roles.. aren't good (Jinx, Medusa, Enchanter in shambles when Medium exists)
Medium hard-counters so many roles though
that too ig
Anyway uh
transporter caused a lot of confusion
Ambusher, Dusa, Janitor and?
Forger
crap yeah right
did u forgor about forger
Froger
Genuinely I think shroud with the tol possessor’s normal attack (force someone to secretly attack a player of your choosing) would make the role infinitely more interesting
give shroud a true control?
Little known fact
I dislike shrouding as a mechanic
I forgot about ambusher not being jinx LOL
Not quite a witch control just
You make someone else carry out your attack
giving shroud a true control but it not giving you their role
The concept of Shrouding is to make another person kill for you.
The issue is: it only affects 3 roles in the game.
I mean forger also did, yet it's still there.. give us back our way to force evil to commit self with vigilante pls :(
Anyway aside from that Medium was basically a glorified version of the ability to see a dead player's feedback that current spy has
and current spy already gets 0 value from that
he does actually
The thing is Transporter would have to be UO immune
the amount of time I was able to gather the seer's last results
Yeah so just-
Actually why don’t I just propose it in a separate thread this is sk thread
witch alr is
Trickster is alr Trans if it was useful
Apparently it's the other way around
Crus and other UO roles are witch immune ??
Original trickster was transport self but kills
Is that supposed to be a downside? It allows evil to fake trans if needed
What I heard anyway
Transporter is either god or negative utility
Tuba is this correct or not
main issue was that you were forced to play like a vet
Really
Told ya
Wack
So witch gets blocked by UO as well
ToS priority makes no sense to me 💀
in vanilla Curt coded socialite so it might be different
I know because I thought admirer was useful once but no it was just me being withc immune
That makes sense to me
Witch is strong it doesn't need to beat UO
It only says RB Immune on the card, also is the message just the "Unwavering Resolve" one?
I think so
yeah
I thought admirer was useful
?
but it was just crus being built different and ignoring witch
astral roles dont get UO from crus
Those were my eggs I was boiling and curt sent them in modmail LOL
astral visits *
LOL
boiled now
i once made a psy bypass crus
Hard boiled !
Jailed players should get witched 
Jailed players should die
Jailor should steal 10% of the defence of anyone they jail and force them to defeat them in a 1v1
What is even the point of the "state your cases" phase of the prosecution?
ask bmg
We won't get a response.
jailor should try to plunder from two people and win in an RPS game
"YOU TARNATION I WAS CONFIRMED MONARCH"
Could also be done in the normal "last words" phase though
flavour prob
Your honor, league of legends
death
"Urine."
Jarate 
Oy, are we still trying to make NKs unique?
Curt said yeah but I dont think its super necessary rn
Considering I'm doing most BTOS2 balance stuff
I know Curt is working on other stuff rn
nks are unique anyway in most lists
Tuba ooooo u are being hypnotised ooooooo u want to make NKs unique ooooooo
its an all any issue
make NKs unique

yeah only one nk in most set lists
I mean AA isn't meant to be balanced
exactly
so it's not really useful to force NK to be unique
AA should be a Ranked rolelist in disguise fr
imagine having an April game and the rolelist is Ranked with Secret Killers
all the slots are any but secretly it generates a fairly balanced ranked list every single time
this is Casual Mode Deception
it's just this every time https://discord.com/channels/1197645970998054992/1269049223387676835
Wildcard Coven Ranked :

is the equivalent of the trollface of this server to me

So I'm too lazy to bother making a post, so here.
Shroud: Choose 2 targets. Force the first to deal a Basic Attack to the second. You will visit your first target. Your first target will still perform their normal ability for the night on their chosen target, and will receive no notification of being Shrouded. However, they will appear as having visited your second target to all visit trackers, as well as acting like a harmful visit and appearing like a Shroud to all role revealers for the night, except Neutral Pariahs.
Coroners will see your second target as having been killed by the Shroud, and will always see your first target as the Shroud, even on future nights.
Just make that the Shroud ability.
I think it should be basic
LEV???
Change the attack to attack to powerful then it's fine
I prefer the SK rework idea that makes it more like old CL instead this bc shroud is so insanely pathetic atm
Lore balance D:
where
so the one that gives it powerful attack for basically no reason
and in most modes here where SK can spawn doesn't do much of anything
^
People need to remember why the old CL design sucked
It was only useful at countering neutrals
That's it
It does nothing to combat town outside of making one role in particular die to it
(Well technically two but if you're killing a Vet by that point you've already lost)
problem with that rework is that there was literally no point to go aggressive until the very very end of the game in specific conditions
Well
I think arsos better tbh
Arso is arguably better yeah
Only in specific rolelists or if it gets lucky
It suffers in tos 2 but
people just sit on their ignites too long imo
Shroud and Arso are the top
SK and WW are the bottom
once you get 3 douses just go for it in most lists
I think Shroud's winrates is a legit tell of their strength, because they do well across a few modes
Consistency seems to be a big factor in NKs
Whereas WW and SK who are difficult to control and can kill their own team accidentally, they suffer
well if it was sk wouldnt be the literal bottom of the barrel though
I dont think its THAT inconsistent
okay I thought you meant consistent gameplay wise
it consistently kills is what I meant
You cannot control bloodlust
it activates on its own and is very easy to lose
plus rampaging is kinda inconsistent by nature
so I think it is very inconsistent
I'm sure part of SK and WW having a lower winrate is them killing each other tho
nps wont die to bloodlust
You will lose bloodlust if you hit them though
And now you're just a godfather
for the next two nights which, probably won't happen!
personally I just think sk is too loud with nothing else to compensate for it
Coroner winrate goes wild
Coroner's winrate is 100% an anomaly LUL
prosecutor being that high is crazy
I think it's a bit of an anomalous result as well
But stats are interesting
not something to treat as gospel of course, there are always different explainations as to why stats might be how they are which isn't "oh this role is just this consistently good/bad!"
But they are a good way to challenge stances you might be too heavily leaning into as well
it can depend on whether or not your team had good/bad roles too
Of course, luck is always a factor
especially in all any
but TAA also had the biggest sample size at the time of these stats being released
what was the sample size for taa
okay thats def nowhere near enough
Would be interested in seeing stats redone
Yeahhh
How long has it been since that stream ?
Get some proper solid stats
Uhh one sec
Almost a month
I posted about them on the 14th of July which is when the stream happened I believe
Maybe
Food for thought
We'll see
For anyone who has played ToL it's like the Possesser
That sk rework didn't have that problem as it had difference properties that affected then town depending on if you choose cautious or not
the properties that interacted with town in question were 2 and they were a pretty big net negative for switching to aggressive
close enough welcome back Fang Gu
(im aware there's a lot of differences, this is a joke)
Possessor is calling.
He’s suing fang gu
my goat
Fang Gu has DA on his side
Possessor is not getting custody
politician wants to sue fang gu for ruining their perfect winning game
Your weapons and your walls are but smoke in dreams
ogre also has a statement it wants to make
kazali better smh
Kazali suuuuck
nunny
you remember when you got marionettes by uyik
and I was perma drunk for the rest of the game
LOL
me and spod were so confused why nobody I picked was cera mad
That game was so confusing for everyone
oh my god that poor log dude
And also the fact the politician perfectly filled for the missing cera madness
So I wouldn’t realise my ability actually worked LOL
it was noite
Yeaa
he played so perfectly dude
Fr LUL
Tbf if I was in their position I might doubt myself as well at that point LOL
cause dude the fact he made someone mechanically ask if there could be another savant
FR LOL
Also like the person who sussed out uyik was demon since D2 but nobody listened to them somehow LOL
I don’t remember who that was tho
He metagamed it
I remember
Because STs kept going into calls with uyik LOL
But he never said that in game
Which is prob a good thing
clearly he was just the 3rd savant
LOLLLL
I think he didn't wanna ruin the game
Yeaaaa
Oh shoot okie!
whats wrong with kazali 😦
its a super underrated demon 😔 everyone nowadays just wants yagga or LM
Uh swiiiiingyyyy
Accidentally deletes all the outsiders moment
removing outsiders?
ah its probably because im biased towards outsiders in general
i love playing/bluffing as outsider
or it adds all 5
wasn't me but ive seen +3 outsiders in 8p :3
that
game was horrid
but
as a spectator it was funny
and then since the base1 outsider was hatter, the kazali turned into the no dashii and poisoned the last two townsfolk
so good was just a bunch of potatoes
How the hell is pros so high when it ends the day In Btos
data set is way too small for those stats to be taken to heart
human psychology, pros is good at maintaining majority, etc.
people see green name, they listen
even if they are evil
Why don't you like it on SK and what should SK get instead
You can't go "I don't like it" and nothing else
First of all, yes the fuck I can
And secondly it's more so because of theming, Serial Killer faking their death could be fine but I feel like it's going to still be overshadowed by Shroud and Arsonist
THEMING LMAO
Yes...?
I just don't like the concept that much currently
If it were buffed I could see it working as a role
But I prefer Serial Killer to be the dual-mode playstyle that was suggested previously
This is basically turning it into the default Basic Attack 1 KPN with a one-trick pony ability
Which is what I see a lot of NK ideas pitched as
I know Serial Killer is one of the 1 KPN Neutral Killings but... eugh
I just don't like how this is executed
I would rather see this on a different role with a much more interesting kill method
I am being picky but when have I never not been 
ANYTHING is better than bloodlust and people already shouted down the old SK rework (which was good by the way)
there was no reason to go aggressive with the old one
unless you were targeting an nk or something with defense
In which case its probably endgame and now you just lost basic defense against an nk/something with defense
I agree with Bloodlust being bad
I'm not saying we don't need a Serial Killer rework
I just don't like this one for Serial Killer
Oh I do agree that the suggested rework previously wasn't great
I just like the concept so much better, to me it has way more potential
https://discord.com/channels/1197645970998054992/1224519823917060217
I made my version of it here
honestly once this rework is added I dont see it going back
it's going to be something that isnt bad enough to be changed before a ton of other things for a while
tuba alr said he's adding it so
Yeah and that disappoints me
The charged ability is interesting for sure
But the fact that it's the only thing that the role has going for it is just... meh
I don't really like it when roles rely on their one-shot ability in order to have a shot at winning
yeah nks have no room for being one tricks
Holy guacamole wave appearance what the fridge 🤯
In tos2 ppl are used to roles having a lot of abilities where the tos1 style where some roles only had one ability is forgotten really, like old tos1 sk had notihng special
the nks only had the ability to perform somewhat in tos1 because the main evil faction wasn't stacked
they just had less ways to get screwed
but they still sucked
honestly I can still see this being weak
it leaves a good amount of room for skill expression, but you'd have to be pretty skilled already in order to make proper use of it I feel like
I don't see this being a bad thing
I guess sk is already pretty difficult on account of having absolutely no accomodations to sustain it
other than rb immunity I guess
every other nk gets a little something at least
Just in general I think people don’t realise that almost every role acting every single night is 100% not something every SDG does by any stretch of the imagination
I don't think that expecting roles to be powerful in a game where many roles are powerful is too much of a stretch
roles can be simple for sure, and some probably should be
but tos2 is really built on power so far
every role does things
it never did that
it isn't?
bloodlust is like the most aids mechanic lmao
just don't run into the rampage
sk doesn't even get access to it a lot of the time because the condition isn't always reliable
im not dealing with this shit, i just woke up
fuck around = block
I don't like to fuck around in #1197948822358331523 god damn it
it's the fact it's bloodlust
along with counter attack
- SK being able to maintain bloodlust
makes it so fucking stupid
sk still literally has nothing to keep it alive though
it's probably the most vulnerable nk just because all it can do is directly attack every night
sk is still worse shroud
what's your point
bloodlust literally does so little for it
all this talk about it being op is completely overblown
SK is poopoo i think is 2nd worst NK beside WW
the point is that
- shroud winning makes no sense dispite being the weakest so stop bringing it up
- SK having INF rampages if fueled is powerful as fuck
shroud isn't the weakest lol
if someone runs into its rampage every single night for some reason?
sk is
SK ISN'T WEAK???
that's debatable
IT HAS THE BEST POTENTIAL KPN
I'd say ww is weaker
aa balancer here
but sk is weak
i don't balance off AA dumbass
well ww won the most in s2
don't piss me off istfg
it has the highest potential kpn but relies on an incredibly swingy and overall unreliable mechanic
I'd say ww is stronger
arso
it has some deception at least
as well as on actually getting kills
running around all over the place with direct basic attacks doesn't exactly lead to good things a lot of the time
shroud is stronger, proved by win rates and its deception
you've constantly gotta deal with all the stuff that can kill you while also having to worry about defense
rampage has some of the easiest counterplay in the game
thinking of dying to rampage? don't!
sk gets it way too late for it to be useful
you can't legally die to rampage if you don't give consent
you can actually die to ww's rampage bc you don't know ww exists n2
secret killers
no lists in casual have that
we need the ranked list back
that doesn't have an NK
yeah
sk's even forced to telegraph itself
see 2 or more sk kills in the span of 2 nights? sk has rampage the next night
you play accordingly
ww's problem is falling off HARD after n2
it relies on a very impactful hit or it just kinda sits there and waits to die
I guess that's why it won the most out of all the NKs in the JR modes
the N2
relying too much on swing
not saying WW is good
but sk is worse
sk doesn't rely so much on swing since as long as it's getting successful picks it can still at the very least maintain 1 kpn
I still prefer WW
but w/e
they're both bad
@lusty oyster sk is probably the worst due to it having no deception at all
it just doesn't make sense
wym
sk should be the best
How
but it's the worse
the 50 different mechanics sk has lmao
how is it a worse WW, it can ramapge n2 n3 & n4... if lucky
yeah sure ur rampaging n2
sure bud
sk literally has nothing to go on other than kills, is the main thing
(that's a fixed bug)
even ww has means of passively visiting
fym you mean "bug"
even if that ability itself is pretty trash on an nk
I think you can't get rampage n2 anymore
you can't power it up twice in 1 night iirc
you can
:)
I thought that was fixed
it's the same system that allows you to chain rampages if you get 2 kills every night
it just counts each individual kill
the bug was actually that you'd get counted for 2 kills if you stacked your attack and the counterattack on an rber
so you only got 1 kill but it counted for 2
misunderstanding
sk is still the worst nk in the game
i don't like how sk works, this is so much more better
i fucking hate bloodlust
it's just this doesn't makes sense as sk has the most potential... but whatever
it's good on paper
it's worse ww in game
*most kill potential
SK rampage n2?????
counter attac
ig
i still want this sk
this sk is must more better than bloodlust sk
give us skinner sk!!!!!!
Yes, if it kills every night
Keyword: if
Yeah I agree with you. It was better when this was shroud in my opinion but the decision was already made.
Yeah bloodlust was a flawed mechanic
No need to worry about shroud since that ship has sailed. It is either SK gets this or nobody does, so let's make sure at least bloodlust gets destroyed
imo sk needs it more
The idea isn't bad but it needs something else for it to do so it isn't a one trick pony
shroud is alr good
Is that really needed?
Yes because let's say you swapped with someone, okay cool, hopefully you tricked town
Now what? You still got the standard nk problems to deal with: tp, ti, and tpow
so what should it get?
That's a good question, something to deal with at least one of those problems
none of the other nks have anything to deal with all 3 reminder
shroud has tp
ww has nothing
arso has tp
possessor had 2 charges of jumping originally but this could be too confusing here
Which is why nk have the worse win rates
Would keeping a second will in notes be metagaming or nah?
No but you would be a bitch
they're not supposed to win lots tbh
yes they are powerful but they're supposed to see how far you can go without a team
shroud and arso going thru tp makes them win more I expect
I would be gamethrowing not to use an optimal strategy is the thing
Honestly
They deserve a proper chance at winning
Give sk, when they jump, a button to switch between their will, the person they jumped will, and do the same for their notepad
again all any issue
It’s called kingmaker XD
you guys are asking for powerful attack
I would not be against powercreeping NK but it would have to be all at once
No
which I can do it for the attack they would jump but only that
I don’t think buffing NK is the answer
Otherwise Mon is immune to this for some reason
this is not needed at all
you could always nerf town

inb4
Tbh make amne tos 1 amne and make it ns
Not only is rarer but it's fun again
AMNE PIRATE BABY WOOOOOOOOOOO
This whole idea of being outted fake as NK is not a skill issue when a four coven team can push you into oblivion
amne jackal 
I like the concept of town amne but it's not executed well rn
meh, amnesiac would turn the game too much
I don't think amne being town and good is really possible at all to do
for a role that only shows up in TAA this isn't an issue
It needs a complete rework
Overhaul it then
the currect amne is bad
Really, I think amne should have never been made town at all
that one is too strong
TAA is a sandbox so ofc it wouldn’t be an issue
it turning tpow may be a bit much I agree
it basically makes a 3rd tpow slot
but I like the recall bit
that evils need to kill
Yeah
i do not like it
the recall ability is cool tho
recall is just a variation of ret
and would be difficult to code it in, youd become the role then become amne again
I think amnesiac will always have crossover with ret to some extent, tbf
Tbh I think make amne tos 1 amne and slapping ns on it is the best way to go
hm ic ic
let ret use seer then it is good ig
No
i would prefer that as a new role
There’s no easy way to make it happen, it has to be single target
Imagine if amne could choose the role that would be too op
I think amne should be its own role in some way though
@cold plover has leveled up! (30 ➜ 31)
L tatsu
*town roles ofc
Tbh retri is already strong (but situational)
But I'm sure Tuba could find a way to make it work
everyone will wait for tpow
yep.
Amnesiac would be cool if you could wait to random draw a role
ts slot is ruined by admi
btw if mon could gain back a charge using revoke why doesn't energise work
no one has came up with a good one i admit btos admirer is not good enough
the original idea
its way too difficult to code
BTOS admirer still better than vanilla any day tho
and the ui can allow you to target 2 ppl same time max
some roles leading to target 3x or 4x
same time
with energize
A role that affects itself vs a role that affects every other role in the game
hm ok
The only thing I could see that could be changed about amne that isn't a rework or an overhaul is giving them the choice to remember automatically or by their own choice
the mon change is proposed , not confirmed to make it
It’s easy to apply human logic to code and say “if x is easy y should be too!” but usually it’s some fucked up other way of working that’s actually way harder
I’m a little worried about mon rework because I don’t want to justify night 1 knights
yeah sorry about that
so many proposed changes did not get in
some people treat it as if i said something its gonna %100 make it
HOW DARE YOU!!! (This is a joke it’s no problem)
Revoking knights would make tt so much more interesting
Main reasoning for mon revoking nights is because knighting evils makes the game end way too fast
It’s another thing in the long chain of trying to not have tos 2 be way too fast
I don't like it bc it makes mon too good
make everyone start with 2 votes and have the Monarch's job be removing them 
A good monarch would revoke for safety and an evil one would revoke for majority
I like current mon
mon is really boring atm
Also tbf I don’t think anyone was coming at it with the same logic, people were looking at it as a “buff” compared to an overall game health thing
and an easy mislynch
"no one likes it"
is not a feedback at all
i saw some ppl say that
but like that just discourages me from bringing up ideas
I personally like it :D
Some people try anything to make their opinion seem like the correct one it’s annoying

make revoking 1 charge then
it already is 1 charge
It was proposed as one charge yeah
well, I don't think it's an issue personally
Me neither
Revoking is a valid strategy and could add to the game
Also evils can still use it to their advantage
adding more depth to a role isn't bad
I still dislike it
just make a poll. If it's not 75% positive, then don't add it IMO
?
Or a post
3-1 ratio of good to bad
Why that specifically?
That biases it towards not adding it
if it's like a 55% approval it doesn't feel as genuine
no
that's the point
Opinions sounded mixed so that would be a smart course of action
I like it. If nearly half the people don't (but majority still likes it), that's still isolating nearly half the playerbase
maybe even 4-1 good to bad ratio
I’m not emotionally attached to the mon rework or anything but I don’t think saying a vast majority liking it is necessary
Prob a bit excessive
plus it isn't a big enough change to have people go batshit insane over
Revoking knights is going to make mon in tt hunt much more interesting
"Monarch can revoke knights now. Game is ruined."
I don't think it's that crazy of a change to make
plus I've heard people talking about how it's a decent change.
that gives Monarch a little more flavor as a role.
Also if monarch gets witched it allows them to revoke the knight if they don't trust the person who was knighted
that too lol
ooh a new idea
It’s just adding dismantle to monarch basically
How would it work with cs though
I mean revoking knights
It would, you know, revoke
maybe a pseudo-announcement where people who don't religiously check #1197948822358331523 could find proposed changes and vote on whether they're good or not.
@noble vector thoughts?
I might be wrong but don’t knights already vanish when monarch swaps?
Idk
technically yeah
Either way it wouldn’t impact too much
It’s so niche to design around a neutral special
aside from jackal
like, if one of the devs likes a change, they could add it to a #proposal-announcement as a "we think it's good and should be in the game. how about everyone else?" and have it from there, since there are many people who don't constantly check #1197948822358331523.
that works too
no I mean
if there's an idea that you or Curtis likes from #1197948822358331523, whether it's your own or someone else's, posting it as a poll sounds interesting
whether in it's own channel or #announcements or #bettertos2-updates
not everyone checks #1197948822358331523 and not everyone watches your mod talks
or comments on them
that is exactly why the modtalk summaries are posted in #bettertos2-updates
i dont get the point
fair. I just think having a poll there would make it easier to grasp the opinions of people
I've come to sa
if you are just basing a role off it's potential
then Arso PB SC (as NA) are way better than SK
shroud and ww are also better
there are many who like to say "I don't like this", whether they have a reason or otherwise. There are few who say "I like this" and explain why. That's why there's 44 likes and 7 dislikes, while 5 of the people who disliked explained why while only like 10 people who liked explained why
having a simple poll just as a simple guage of opinion in an area that people view more sounds useful
I like this because tuba suggested it
lol
i think the reason why dislikes usually needs more explaination than likes is because the suggester already know why people might like it because they know why they like it otherwise they wouldn't really suggest it you don't really see people suggest stuff that they know are pure poopoo that often
I feel like this can be metagamed a LOT easier than a lot of other roles, but I do like it
while true, many explanations for disliking something are pretty bad.
Metagaming is frowned upon but physical evidence is hard to argue against
"I don't like it because of theming" sends 30 messages about it
If an SK who jumped is being inconsistent it can be used against them
Not every game is voice chat.
Besides, better to have an ability that does something instead of "here slap a powerful attack on him and a rampage that doesnt work"
what if SK have an ability that lets him kill people
^
this role will not work in vc lobbies
make him werewolves little brother for a little bit
they can just have the other person take over
act as conversion
ban sk
salt and the thoughts of revenge generally make people just not wanna do that
fanggu style of jump would work in vc lobbies
yea
makes them an SK as well
if you wanna code all of that and make the charges from one to another transfer that's up to you
I think the difference is being SK is fun
id much rather be an NK than be a vampire
I have somewhat of an idea for SK that I’d like to garner feedback on as while I like the idea of “Body jumping” as others have said I think it fits better on another role but I do have an idea to make SK work nicer but idk this is still better than bloodlust by a mile lmao
They have entire videos of people doing that ofc they would
They just ban it later when it gets old
I don't mean voice chat, I mean in terms of how people talk, Like Some People Always Capatalise Their Words and some talk a lot faster than others
(I can quite easily tell sometimes who's who)
you can imitate that unless you physically lack the ability to do something
and most people don't type fast
That can be easily replicated, and I doubt people will notice unless they are actively trying to call people out for jumping
Just talk fast or capitalize words to compensate
Jailor needs to do that too
true
also "hey 2 type a turkish key" can be done but might need to be flagged as foul play
LOL
Ew
c
Shun whoever does that
(pretty sure they have c in turkey?)
that sounds like communication outside the game
^
how are u supposed to know 2 is turkish
that's kinda cheating
yea its against the rules regardless
they have proxz's regname 
in general speaking a diff language is cheating
I’m still using the second will strat since it doesn’t break any rules
Tpows do this anyways
You need a second will to avoid attention in the early to midgame
nah
by that I mean if someone (totally not just you) typos and reveals that they have a turkish keyboard, someone accuses them of being jumped, they can prove via typing that key that they wern't jumped
Sir that is literally a three step recipe to getting banned from stream games
???
oh I know it's metagaming 100% but it's doable, that's just a potential problem I'm pointing out
(and no I won't do that, I just pick up information a lot)
Same, I prefer the previous SK rework as well.
Shroud deserves this rework instead.
lore balancing
old SK rework did literal nothing for the role and was only liked at the time cause CL was problematic and didn't need it
Shroud is a ghost like creature, this rework fits it better.
Serial Killer is a blood thirsty killer.
lore balancing yet again
the ability should still fit the damn role
and a blood thirsty killer is not a serial killer im p certain
think that's just a mass murderer
thats like saying Marshal should be able to murder people at night
cuz who cares about lore balancing
Marshal is a town military role and it kills people during the day
you're using arguments that make 0 sense to prove your point
refer to this
SK stealing identities makes no sense, it fits Shroud better
you're only saying it makes sense for shroud cause it's a ghost
but it doesn't need whatsoever
Shroud is the weakest NK
please tell me what reason shroud needs to be able to hop bodies
tell me a reason why Serial Killer should be able to swap bodies
because they're disguising as someone to not get caught
what
I've only seen Shroud win when there were multiple shrouds.
I've seen SK and WW win alone a few times, but never Shroud (outside an evil heavy April list or smth)
Shroud is the weakest NK
it needs a buff
heck even with multiple shrouds, they still lose because they cant kill other NKs
whereas every other NK can
im mentioning All Any because I've only ever seen Shroud win in All Any
it always loses outside it
While your position is good, two problems sir.
A: This reasoning is unfortunately dog shit
B: It's already going to SK, you should stop wasting your time on this argument. Shouting down the idea will only result in Tuba not giving anyone the idea.
I state again
shroud STATISTICALLY is a better role than SK in the majority of gamemodes
and even then shroud still has a higher wr in all any than SK
A. whatever
B. Shit decision, it doesnt fit SK at all
current Shroud is "meh, could use a bit of help", current SK fucking blows.
that's legit proven by the statistical balance of all any by mist mag and true all any statistics
