Doc not being able to accidentally doc yak was probably a bigger reason why it became townsided though


not directly. but it lead to me specifically claiming hit BP d1 after a doc save and winning because of it. like, claiming as doctor/tracker myself and not getting night killed because of it, or when yakked and "clear" until people caught on


Indirectly too, but definitely directly. Why wouldn't it directly greatly affect it?

No 3 man mafia teams
No doc joints
Doc couldn't doc until all yaks are out, now he could


we're comparing it to the old days, where doc joints were only dnoe by heathens who got purged


Intentionally, but noob docs would mess up all the time

honestly. i take it all back. i played in 90% of the DLYV games after it got unblacklisted and carried the hell out of whatever team i was on. so i don't think the newer DLYV stats were accurate

not necessarily. i mean, yeah, FP players all suck, but they stick to FP. DLYV ended up townsided because mafia got wrecked


Yak is the key to understanding how to play either side. Yes yak setups will be outgrown, however mafia have a huge edge currently because townies aren't conditioned to think or act on their own.

I'd have to see DLYV in the current meta to understand if its actually mafia's fault for losing. If so things can be done to fix that. DLYV is more of a fun setup than a competitive one anyways, I'd be looking for one that gives town a shot at mafia with incompetent players without crowding out mafia's chances at a decent game.


it was a shift in meta. we started lynching on day 1 mylo and not letting people claim when they got lynched (even tracker) and we were pretty accurate when we did it. and during the times we got the lynch wrong. mafia ended up hitting BP and getting wrecked after that


man those were fun times, me you and kerry winning all day everyday

i used to fearkill zovea back in the day because he'd be the only player with the gusto to accurately FOS me aside from tryhards

one of my favorite parts about DLYV is that you could yak someone you hated and they'd either have to carry you to a win or risk gamethrowing

that sounds awesome tbh


i kinda just forced it to happen and the townies had no idea what was going on became obvious town, so mafia were easy to pick out. and when i was mafia, they crumbled, but i ended up hitting BP and losing
