Whisperer game
Tried to kill everyone at the start and messed up
Claimed I was yeti and had to loot 2 bodies so they picked me up
Looted one went to the other and booked it
Would've died right then and there
I don't recall if I lived and won or not afterwards

#

Iirc I didn't

#

Ive also seen people put landmines in the middle of 3 berry bushes so you step on it when trying to efficiently harvest them
Pretty big brain and something I never thought of

I like to eat two of the herbs in a clump and put a mine in front of the last one

Killed a survivor with a bear trap and a mine that was placed by a survivor as a ghost by putting their tool in front of both of them. It was funny af

I tripped my own like 6 landmines I put on first objective and everyone believed I was Scout in the first 10 minutes of the game

This set me up for killing off entire groups of Survivors I went bunker hunting with with other landmines and later on, guns.

How to get revenge as ghost traitor 101

Knowing the first objective required materials, I broke the first bunker trying to open it with 2 other people including a survivor who knew very well from the previous game that I break bunkers. The survivor immediately chased me down and killed me. While dying, I assured my partner that I would help as a ghost giving instructions that I'd listen through the red radio when dead and asking to drop poison whenever possible. ID thief stole my role. Let's name the survivor who killed me the killer for future reference.

I didn't get any poison from any living traitor. However, I noticed another survivor hoarding a bunch of poison behind a bunker - I stole and used them. I poisoned the first objective which was accessed by a survivor who got later poisoned. Let's name this survivor the poisoned for future reference.

At some point I wanted to poison the first objective again. I noticed the killer and the poisoned walking together towards the objective. The poisoned was quite paranoid and scared of touching it so the killer reassured the poisoned by interacting the objective first. After finishing the interaction, while saying that it was clear of poison, I used a poison on the objective which the poisoned accessed. After the poisoned got poisoned again, the killer was confused with the situation but the poisoned found a solution by swinging the weapon at the killer to death.

how to get revenge as ghost traitor 103
store sabotages for your Traitor teammate and convert dead Survivors to your cause of being a backpack to the Traitor

Also a very good anti - cycle meta tacticicon_hysteria

one game as traitor there was a bunny's event going on and i needed to steal so i downed the person guarding took it all took a hatch opened a bunker got a new melee and came back like i didnt know what was happening, they said the person who downed them used a ghost sickle so i told them this other guy had a ghost sickle so they exiled him and when we saw him next the survivors killed them

on blackout, revived a down survivor in front of a group of survivors after i was confirmed demon but my charge wasn't up so they just clobbered this guy who wasn't even converted while he was screaming for mercy

I tried it multiple times as confirmed traitor, never succeeded

I just remembered the time I foiled a traitors plan as a ghost. They sabotaged and trapped objective, which was dig site, but only 1 part was needed to repair, and i knew where it was when i was alive, So as a ghost, and in plain view of the traitor who was camping first, i picked up the part and dropped it behind their traps. They now had to go get it otherwise the survivors had an easy repair, so they stepped in their own bear trap to get in, and while they were trapped i simply picked it back up. Anyway the last 2 survivors showed up and the traitor was now standing in plain sight in objective with no traps on the door, so they killed them quite easilly, after which I gave them the part and they went on to win.

TL;DR I made a traitor activate their own trap and got them killed

I was a traitor and my traitor buddy killed someone in the snow, saying they were evil, I immediately ran to the body and put a poison crossbow on it, saying that he had it on him, everyone believed us and we won the game

lol

#

always put traitor items on survivor bodies

#

but like, then the survivors now have a pbow

#

I've done quite a few things, but I'll give two of my examples

Once in Blackout I was converted, and everyone who was converted was Wolfing. I decided to still play my rome somewhat and went back to cabin and try to fix first. I didn't though. I just kept taking the gas and destroying it by making flashbangs. When I was discovered, I had 3 stacks of flashbangs. I got away easily

#

A second thing I did I actually have a clip of. I used a gasoline/campfire explosion to stunlock someone and then get a kill in. If you wanna see it, just dig in the media channel

my only 1000 IQ move is to steal a poisoned xbow from a traitor when he dropped it on the ground and I can access to it (he was getting stuff from an orange crate he just found it correctly), and give it to a survivor (who also noticed the drop and picked it up immediately)

so P/S to everyone else: don't drop your items on the ground when ghosts can pick it up LUL, if you did it make sure ghosts cannot pick it up =D

traded kills

In chess thats called a piece trade

where both players take the other players piece of the same

tacit wren
#

yeah I know

#

I also played chess, I said "traded kills" because it is clearly shown in the pictures, I know all about trade kills and you don't need to be a dick about it @ancient stream

How to sheep perfectly:

1: again peoples trust
2: assure them that you saw your traitor buddy near cabin (while in reality they were out killing someone or getting drinks)
3: TAKE ADVANTAGE OF BUNNIES
-this may seem stupid but the amount of chaos that is possible with group hysteria is insane, just go off a little bit, pretend like you’re coming back in, kill someone, break off again, comeback in pretending it wasn’t you and that you were trying to chase the “traitor” (you) into the hatch but they escaped, while in reality it was you who used the hatch, and walked back to the group from that hatch.
4: poison, poison, and more poison.
-take advantage of poison, people hate it, and it’s easy to fake getting poisoned yourself by just drinking a bottle
And 5: Come out at the last second and kill everyone at the conveniently timed animal wave second objective

or you can watch them die to animals

YEEZY ZEUS

#

you can also take advantage of solar flare and down some people so they cannot be revived unless someone else is transported around them too

As traitor, killed a guy I was alone with, disguised as him, went through traitor tunnel, popped out in front of like 5 people, jumped back in, took off disguise, claimed I killed traitor.

sterile sparrow
#

Its great when you have an unused disguise and manage to use it after getting discovered as traitor, then like 30 seconds later see your previous body get exiled because they didnt realise

#

I don't think this was posted here yet, so I'll repost it from another thread because I love this strategy so much.

While being chased, run behind a bunker and use a disguise kit. It'll be super confusing for the poor Survivors until they figure out there's two of you

I killed someone at second objective, hatched back to the cabin, met up with three people and “stumbled upon” the body, claimed detective and said the suspects were me, the dead person, and a person in the group. Got them killed for free.

sterile sparrow
#

Wait can the suspect of a body include the person?

hot minnow
sterile sparrow
#

Yeh most of the time if you're investigating a corpse you probably already heavily suspect someone else killed them. I'm guessing it may only show the "possible killers" evidence if they actually have a killer that isnt themselves, same as if they get killed by a wolf or the elements

sterile sparrow
#

that's assuming the list of names doesn't update when clothes are swapped

hot minnow
#

I doubt it does

sterile sparrow
#

honestly now that I'm thinking about it theres probably a meta play regardless of how it works

#

if a body cannot have itself as a killer, then if you see a body does so, you know someone, likely the killer, has swapped clothes with the body

#

if the names update, obviously you could track disguise changes

#

and if it can have itself as a killer, then you can usually narrow the killers down to 2 since its unlikely they killed themselves

coarse haven
#

I think it's been mentioned somewhere that the suspects never include the detective or the victim only when neither of those are killers

Because I can't say the other word

tell everyone you are traitor right off bat every game and open a crate. 10/10 recommend
