Ended Shadow's League of Legends Mafia: Season II - GAME OVER (Anti-Town Victory)
- Thread starter Shadow
- Start date
Yeah I'll admit (I think I already did) that my role was so overpowered, I hit fourteen targets in four nights. If it was a scum role I would definitely say that 2 mafia, 1 traitor is enough (maybe even no traitor) for an easy win.
Anyways, I extremely overestimated my strategy. I'm sure you guys could have done better, but it happened how it did. I had a nice steak dinner and I'm not really salty about the results anymore. You guys were on point, we were completely scattered. Gg.
Steak dinners are excellent. If I had to choose between a Mafia win and a steak dinner myself, whelp, sorry team - I'm going steak.
Well, I guess maybe you figured he could have been an SK as well?
@Tirin: who were you trying to kill, anyway?
Well, killing the Vig on Day 1 became pretty likely once all of you started actually going along with lynching the guy who'd just claimed Vig. (Sorry, @AndyM03 - business is business.) As for us both targeting Tirin, those weren't bad odds either, since he was being so conspicuous. I personally didn't like that he'd been calling me out all day, and wanted to make sure he wouldn't pull an SK or Cop action on me, and you...

Nah, I picked my N1 targets mostly randomly(i couldn't pass up making TC and FD target eachother) I was about six pages behind, so I skipped to the results picked the first players I thought of.
Once I caught up(just before the N1 results came in) I thought Tirin might be a doctor, thinking it would be good to redirect him to himself if he wasn't already targeting himself. I even told myself something along the lines of "what's the worst that'll happen? He's definitely not the vig" when I targeted him.
If I had switched Req and Tirin the game would have been VERY different.
Yeah conceptually it was pretty fun, I just felt like I never quite had enough HP to do anything safely. It felt like a high-risk, low-reward role, since if you actually take a risk or two, you won't be able to afford to try to take a third or fourth. I like that it had the whole live through a night kill thing, and the undetectable regular kill would have been amazing enough even without the HP recharge if not for the fact that everyone and their dog had redirects. The strongman kill was a little too expensive to use regularly, I think. Was that ability redirectable? I didn't read it as immune to redirects, but if it was it might not have been so terrible, given the sheer amount of bus fuckery that went on.
The ult. Well, it had the potential to shift game balance heavily in one fell swoop. I had been considering trying to save it, trying to pay to make the kills strongman kills, or using it to regain HP in a pinch. Easily the most potentially rewarding ability to use, in fact, so good that the opportunity cost involved with different ways to go about it had me running in circles until Easy made me hit myself and I couldn't afford to do piercing kills with it. Consider that it cost only 1 more HP to kill 3 people through defence than to kill 1 person through defence. I know ults are supposed to be good, but given that this was the only ability I seriously even considered using blood price with, you might want to think about the cost involved with it. Seriously, blood thirst just seemed so much better.
Tolvan.
I almost certainly would've appreciated it if I'd had the time.
I facedesked when I posted that there were 4 mafia. Because there weren't even 4 mafia. I was just panicking because Ro was the one who called me out and last game he almost got Tag lynched "for posting too many facts". You people have terrible lynch logic and I'm taking zero chances.
Whatever my townhunting was totally on point.
