Deep sigh

If it kills NK, Mafia's chance of winning is close to 0. NKs help Mafia loads and without it, Mafia are pretty much dead meat. BG pretty much hardcounters NK! It's a TPr pseudo-TK, similar to Lookout being a TI-pseudo TPr. It protects the target and GUARANTEES a good kill. You will never be able to kill a Townie (aside from Vig, but that's extremely unlikely) with this role. It has very little risk in killing a Townie.

This is a smaller threat to Mafia, since Mafia still has a decent-ish chance of winning. But if it kills NK, Mafia is screwed and so is NK. It takes 2 targets out in one when it kills NK (figuratively speaking). The problem is that it kills NK which is stupidly OP for Town because of reduced KPN.
