Powerful/Basic, Detection Immunity, RB Immunity, Control Immunity

...Okay

Choose someone to plunder during the day. They are roleblocked that night (they don't know it's a pirate duel, just thinks regular rb)

...Except RB's don't occur until the end of the night, so either they get RB'd like normal or they get "jail" RB'd like the normal Pirate.

normal rb.

That night, pick a weapon based on what role you think they are:

Scimitar: TI, MD

That just seems like a random pairing to me

'''because MD trick Investigatives. In AH Mafia, MD and Consig-like roles are in the same alignment, Mafia Information.'''

Rapier: TP, NK

That's better...

Pistol: TK, MK, NE

Invest: He's Vig/Vet/Maf bois!

(Pirate ecstacy)

Hook: TS, MS

MD probably deserves to be here more tbh

'''Wait a sec, wheres Coven? NC? Vamps for classic?'''

-Coven doesn't exist

-NC doesn't exist

-Vamps don't exist

because this is ranked.

(but put NC with TS and CE with TP, if you have to)

If you guess correctly, you deal a Powerful attack to them.

If not, welp whatever.

mhm

After two correct guesses you get Powerful defense.

After another two, you get Unstoppable attack.

O.o​​​​​​​

Escort Invest results. I guess that's fine...

tell me if it's good ehe

Well It's not bad? It's just really really weird.

A) Juggarnaught. Someone had to say it.

uh what

B) This kinda hardcounters Veterans, since it can find them rather easily and defend themselves from them if they alert (after a kill or two of course)

but if they don't have the plunders then they die to Vet.

C) Notice how no NK (or ANY killer) in the game has Powerful attacks N1. The reason for that is so people with defence can feel safe N1 (Excluding the Ambusher, Veteran, Bodyguard and Crusader, all of whom rely on people visiting the right target)

So why can the normal Pirate do it, selecting a target no less?

It's NC! The entire point of NC is to shake up the status quo!

'''but it's not gonna guess correctly Night 1. Hopefully.'''

actually 25% is a little too much.



whatever

D) This rather takes out the fun "RNG" element of the NC version, turning it into a killer who has to guess its target's faction. That just doesn't seem that fun to play... Not being able to win with other factions hurts it too.

​​​​​​​yeah, regular pirate can be like that, but this is fun for ranked.

E) This counters TI of all things. Who do you think is going to get attacked by Pirate first?

good.
