In any case, Templar has all the makings of a solo serial killer in a 50+p mash, to put that into perspective

(Minus a vest or two but w/e)

It is the only role here that is bad by being hilariously overpowered

I didn’t nominate any especially bad roles intentionally

But if I could I would have nominated Doppelgänger from Hand of Byzantium for being game breakingly strong

doppel would probably not be that insane in a larger setup tbf

or im forgetting quite how strong it was (i only remember it being basically a godfather SK that commonly had 2KPN)

It also had an execution swap on a 1-shot…alongside its other effects
I consider it broken because it was in a 16p mainly

it could also choose the lynch once

and the double kill was strongman

oh

definitely still “less dumb in a bigger setup” but ya thats kinda absurd in a 16p fair enough carry on

tfw you want to design a large game with powerful roles but only have 16p to work with

There was also no prince in the setup it was in
The prince was a cop which couldn’t do anything to stop doppelgänger
Plus it ignored the incredibly bullshit effects of most of the town

So it was unfair for similar reasons to Templar while also being uncounterable in the setup it was in for the most part

do people actually consider the Joker role bad or is it just “hehe boats go brr”

Boats meme mainly

It is written that boats are guaranteed to sink if they are made of titanium or have Jokers on them.

That’s why it’s illegal to have a full 54 deck of cards on a boat
