Board Thread:Role Ideas (Mafia)/@comment-35167105-20180531070940

Name: Disarmer

Class: Mafia Support

Abilities: Choose a person to remove all temporary protections from that target.

Attributes: You may only perforn three disarmings. If your target has permanent defense (e.g. Serial Killers and Executioners) then their defense will not be removed.

"Disarmable" Defenses (in ranked): A bodyguard or doctor on a target, a self-vesting/healing bodyguard or doctor, a jailed target, a veteran on alert (his attack will still be dealt), and a witch's magical barrier.

Investigator Result (temporary until new roles are added): Your target could be a medium, janitor, retributionist, or disarmer.

Consigliere/Witch Result: Your target removes people's defenses. They must be a disarmer.

So yeah this role would be pretty strong, but honestly that's exactly what the mafia needs since it has abysmal win rates in upper ranked. I am currently in platinum and it literally only wins about 20% of games. Obviously this role would make some jailors think twice about revealing, which is beneficial because it creates more diversity in the strategies that people employ. I would appreciate it if you commented your thoughts on the role below.
