Board Thread:Role Ideas (Mafia)/@comment-32651233-20181110043948/@comment-36539941-20181110234757

While I do agree that Mafia does need a buff, I think the reason that Mafia needs a buff is due to the fact that quite a few of it's roles are straight up useless/are crazy hard to use/rely on other Mafia members to do a good job (Framer's just useless, Ambusher's stupidly hard to play properly, and Disguiser relies on Consigliere giving Disguiser a TI to disguise as). What I think should happen is giving Framer and the lot a buff, instead of making new and strong roles. For example, instead of making a strong TI that gets hard countered by Framer to boost Framer's viability, just directly improve Framer's utility, like if LO sees a Mafia member visit someone, instead of seeing the Mafia member's name, they'll see the name of the person the Framer framed that night. That way, Mafia won't suffer if they don't have Framer to counter the new and strong TI, but when Mafia does have Framer, they can go for Jailors and Mayors more often and not risk getting caught by LO.
