##vote: Peum Guess I have to 'nk' him by voting him :)

Ya, its hard to say. Personally makes me think it has to do with vote manipulation. We really won't know for sure until later on. All I can say definitively is that 4:10 is more mafia than normal so it seems it will be limited in some way or another. Its still a good conversation starter so...

Welcome! First time on smogon or first time ever?

So you think mafia will only be permitted to kill specific people? I guess that would be plausible but Im not sure if that is a sufficient nerf to the NK to justify a 4:10 game. You can be town for having this opinion though.

I think he was joking but it might be the case. 4:10 is definitely more mafia than normal (3:10) and this game seems to be centered around votes so it does kind of emanate the sense of being a pseudo mountainous game where likely many/most roles are vote oriented.

"The mafia's night kill action is non-standard; it revolves around the voting system." I assume this means mafia get extra votes or some form of vote manipulation, so strap in cause this is going to be a game full of wacky hijinx. If I were maf, I would hate not having an NK. Also tbh I feel...

The problem with TR is when people over commit to it. Its good if you approach it with the mindset that you dont always need to use it, depending on the matchup. If you lead Zong and go T1 TR -> T2 Explosion then its bad. If you keep Zong in the back for a late game sweep, its good.

The problem with this is that your opponent has the luxury of knowing if their Gyara/Dnite is Adamant or Jolly and you dont. So worst case scenario, opponent easily dispatches Magneton with EQ and is now winning on material and tempo. Best case, they know they are Adamant and retreat to...

Magnezone is better. The only immediately obvious thing Magneton does over Zone is trap Scarf Magnezone with HP Ground which if you just want to revenge kill after losing Skarm then I guess sure. There is no meaningful speed booster that Scarf Magneton outspeeds. > Tyranitar Ya ok. Im sure...
