'''oh really? that's like the literal main fucking thing it was designed for''' The fact is Blackmailer can claim spy so easily that it's just such an easy claim for mafia. yeah no shit but no one trusts spy claims anyway Claim spy early on, get yourself "confirmed", look for whispers (town rarely checks for bmer) and get info to the mafia. '''people rarely whisper their roles to some random dude. thats like 5 elo play. ''' This is my favorite role, after all. yeah, that's your opinion The visit ability isn't very useful but in the late game it's mainly used to prevent TI from giving out info about possible mafia members. late game what usually ends up happening is town knows who the evils are but no longer have majority It works best if you don't claim spy actually, because people don't suspect a blackmailer and you suddenly blackmail the TI, confusing the town and keeping your mafia safe for a night. '''and thus contradicting 2 of your previous sentences. Also, the blackmailed person can just spam votes on whichever evil they found, and town will just lynch them if they don't have a solid claim'''
