Sandbox strategy - when being a BLU

almost 6 years

Ok in those days sandbox normal setup (7 3 2) we have those roles that makes us see ourselves as blue:

Loudmouth

Gallis

Tricksterer

Turncoat

King

Commuter

So whats the best thing to do when you get one of those roles? Not knowing your real role is annoying. Discuss what you should do on d1 and d2

So any good strategy here?

I suggest act as PR in d1 to force people visiting you to see if u can be loudmouth or commuter

King test d1 is dangerous

I guess u can out as blue in d1 by asking some other people to pop u, but u can die as gallis and maf would take risk to kill u since u can be king or turncoat

If turncoat isnt in the setup game would be easier for u. But if turncoat is in, u need a better plan.

I didnt say those roles are annoying. I meant not knowing our real roles is annoying. And thats why I make this topic, to find out our real roles as fast as we can in the game. then we can use the advantage of those roles to win the game, not just playing them in normal way.

In my setup I removed bulletproof, bleeder because you sit there and watch yourself die slightly slower, it doesn't feel worth it. The other roles you have to figure out who the mafia are /while/ you figure out what role you are. Are you gallis, a liability to the town? Or the king, the easiest to clear in the game? Or maybe you're trickster, who adds that random variant? Or loudmouth, where you need to bait mafia into killing you. These are roles that require you to play more, not less

The other roles are interesting, not annoying. You can be 1 of 4 or 5 roles, king was a great addition because he can accidentally be overpowered. Gallis, lm, trickster and I guess commuter all work in closed roles as the element of surprise.

In a normal sandbox setup you wouldn't have turncoat for starters

Just play the game.

Scumhunting isn't hard. If you get blue and you tab out, why are you playing the game anyway? It's not like most PRs are going to give you anything more interactive than "choose player." Only a small percentage of them give reports and even then half of the time you have players who forget to out their reports because they're tabbed out.
