Katyusha

Katyusha is a very secretive alt account - my purpose in making it was to have a more organized, cohesive, and just better-quality meta free of my previous reputation, good or bad.

Play Philosophy

As a player, I believe that the key to winning Mafia games is learning how to cooperate with my team. When town, I generally focus on finding townreads and bolstering their reads together in a townbloc. As scum, this cooperative nature is a facade to divide town into opposing townblocs with the rest of my team. The team with control over its group dynamic, ultimately, is victorious.

When identifying scum, I try to think of the game as a narrative. Every slot is the protagonist of its own story and has some sort of drive and desire. By identifying someone's purpose, you can match it to a win condition. Understanding Mafia as a form of narrative also makes it easier for me to fake scumplay, as I can adopt a persona with a genuine purpose that mimics a desire to find scum.
