Silly Contrived ToL Matches

ToL has a lot of interesting interactions between various classes and they can make for some silly scenarios. For example, it’s technically possible for BD to win on Day 2 without any executions. Here are a few fun ones I’ve come up with so far:

Code Name: Dogpile

Requires

2x Knight
Sorc
Inq
Alch/Merc
Alch/Merc
2x Phys
MM
Assassin
Sage
Hunter
King

Timeline

Night 1
Assassin attacks Prince

Night 2
Assassin attacks Phys(1)
Phys(1) rezzes Prince

Day 3
Assassin Poisons CW

Night 3
MM Converts CW
Hunter Wolfs CW
Phys(2) rezzes Phys(1)

Day 4
Phys(2) vote up Merc’s targets (if any are present)

Night 4
Sorceror uses Circle of Death on Phys(2)
Knights uses Cold Steel on Phys(2)
Inq uses Ruthless Efficiency on Phys(2)
Alchs/Mercs use Poison/Rebound on Phys(2)
Assassin uses Assassinate on Phys(2)

DKs use Cold Steel on Sage
Hunter uses Wolf on Sage
King uses Execute on Sage

Sage swaps Phys(2) & Self

On Night 4 the Sage will bleed out, die from poisoning, be attacked by a wolf and then murdered 10 extra times, just to be sure. In the morning you will see it announced that the King ordered his execution, and boy did he.

I think, in theory, you can get something similar using a possessor and running the Sage into a Hunter bear and having 2 mercs + 1 alch or vice-versa.

Code Name: Everyone Dies

Requires

Prince
King
Sorcerer
Inquisitor
Cult Leader
Ritualist
Alch
9x Non-occupy immune BD (Princess/Knight/Paladin/Observer/Noble)

Timeline

Night 1
Nobody dies

Day 2
Cult Leader bleeds Inquisitor

Night 2
Nothing happens

Night 3
Sorcerer uses Circle of Death on Prince
Cult Leader uses Eradicate on Prince & King
King uses Order Execution on Sorcerer
Ritualist swaps Ritualist & Alch
BD visit Prince
Inquisitor stabs Alch
Alch bombs Ritualist

This means:

Prince and King die to Cult Leader
BD + Cult Leader die to CoD
Ritualist dies to Inq
Alch dies to self-bomb
Sorcerer dies to Order Execution
Inq bleeds out

And everyone is dead on N3. The best part is this could actually happen in a game!

As I think of more, I’ll update this thread.

It’s possible for Unseen to have majority of votes D2 with no deaths.

Merc on MM
Merc on assassin
Evil King
Sorcerer
Aristocrat
MM
Assassin

That’s 9 votes which is the required number to vote someone up

After which 2 of the BD won’t be able to vote so you only need 1 person to not Pardon and you have majority immediately. (Unfortunately you cannot also have a Fool or Scorned to be that one person because Inquisitor is taking the final Neut slot)
