[SETUP] The Apprentice

hey guys i had a cool idea for a setup
there is a 25% chance that you are playing any of these setups

Cop-Nurse5 Vanilla
1 Cop
1 Nurse
1 Mafia Roleblocker
1 Mafia Goon


Doctor-Nurse5 Vanilla
1 Doctor
1 Nurse
1 Mafia Roleblocker
1 Mafia Goon


Cop-Deputy5 Vanilla
1 Cop
1 Deputy
1 Mafia Roleblocker
1 Mafia Goon


Doctor-Deputy5 Vanilla
1 Doctor
1 Deputy
1 Mafia Roleblocker
1 Mafia Goon


If the town power role dies then the deputy becomes the cop and the nurse becomes the doctor
The apprentice knows who the town power role and what role they are
is this balanced or good in the slightest
like im not sure about the roleblocker in mafia
also i can't do math so i dont know to do EV
Invisibility is actually AWESOME!

This reminds me of a setup that was run in the newbie queue, don't remember the name but I believe the setups were cop/doc/maf rb, cop only, doc only, and maf rb only
I'd say change it up so the maf rb only exists in cop/doc and deputy/nurse, and maybe give maf a neapolitan in the other setups (this is because I consider cop/deputy townsided without any mafia power to counter it)

F11; and I think a backup version was even suggested at some point?

Cop/Deputy > Cop/Nurse >>> Doctor/Nurse > Doctor/Deputy. A Doctor protection just isn't worth much with no power role to protect - a single success usually means you're better off no-lynching to restore parity.

I'm biased, but My Name Is Earl is better.
