Board Thread:Role Ideas (Mafia)/@comment-38593192-20200219083045/@comment-32881402-20200220123654

I mean it's a cool idea but the problem is that everything's out of your control, which doesn't necessarily nerf the strength of the role. Mechanics which rely on visits are generally very inconsistent, so this role could either have a massive impact on the game, painting everyone who needs to be painted so mafia are free to claim, etc., but then it could also be very useless and would be unable to paint people it needs to paint.

This role also hardcounters the retri. While janitor does this, it is limited to 3 cleans whereas painter is able to paint many more.

I like how it's similar to disguiser in the sense that it can claim anything it wants and can trick town using wills, but it seems like a role too complicated and inconsistent for ranked play
