I never played Hollywood illusions before yet I won a trophy. then again I had basic logic to help me out

just play... you'll be fine

experience is most important

Killing people in real life usually results in being better when you're evil on epicmafia.com

Imagine confusing basic Scumhunt with basic logic.


My best tip I guess is what vitacon said. Re-read your own gsmes. Pay attention to who was right in the game and figure out how they found the mafia

I meant basic scumhunt. Y'know which setup I was talking about, there's only 1.

The only competitive setup I can think of without an ml is basic logic

Math is hard.

@OP, reread your own games, particularly the ones you lose to improve. The setups don't really matter.

apply this logic to packidy or payafm and you'll know why you're wrong lol

im one of the bestp layers in the game

Lol

Whoever said it was less about setups and more about players is partially right, but that's not all there is too it.

Literally ANY setup with an ml will train you better for competitive play. (Having an ml means that lynching wrong once won't lose town the game.)

The only competitive setup I can think of without an ml is basic logic, and that setup isn't played very often anyway so there's no reason to prepare yourself for it. (Especially as it uses the almost-phased-out whispers)

Another method to improve is to reread the games of a player you perceive as 'good', or 'what you want to become'. I did this way more than most users when I was learning the game, and it definitely benefited my play a lot.

The real reason classic is terrible is that the entire game hinges on the cop cc 90% of the time, and because of that it only teaches you to read inbetween two people directly counterclaiming each other instead of reading within a group of people, which is much much harder. Cheers.

Its less about the setups you play and more about the people you play with. Play with strong or talkative players, and talk more yourself. Even if talking gets you lynched, you'll learn what exactly you said got you lynched (unless your playing with bad players who lynch you for being too active or something).

Play around in sandbox if you don't understand some rolls. You don't need to understand every one of them, just the common ones.

Find a different website to invest your time in

alternatively, and more preferably, this

Voltron doesn't like it and basic variant are the way to go

Find a different website to invest your time in

Just trying a new game.

I recommend Voltron Doesn't Like It https://epicmafia.com/setup/58204

It is statistically the most balanced setup of all time and helps to train players in playing as a clear, townsperson, or mafia in various situations and contexts while being relaitvely simple to grasp. It is often used in competitive play and has been enjoyed for years by newbies and more experienced players alike.

there is a mentor mentee program just pick a mentor and start learning away.

also those people that say that are wrong and u shouldn't listen to them i mean look at me i played a ton of fancy pants and im one of the bestp layers in the game so play whatever you want if u are unsure about something there are a TON of guides in the site to help u

I learned it all by playing a buttload of sandbox games that just forced me to learn how a lot of stuff works / being comfortable with how stuff works. Franky every set up is pretty different and you just gotta learn them one at a time. Once you understand FP/Classic, you could easily move up to something like Jan 2.0.

Competitive mafia itself is a joke. If you're looking to play some serious mafia then go here http://mafiascum.net
