Overview
The Doctor is one of the most critical roles to the Town and has the potential to nullify the attempts of the Mafia to kill the innocents at night. Every night the Doctor can target a player, this player will survive an attack at night.
Strategies
- The most standard way to play a Doctor is to simply protect the most valuable role the Town has at the time, hence focus on protecting the Sheriff then Investigators then Escorts and so on.
- Playing a doctor to its maximum potential however is excruciatingly difficult and will either result in a nigh-unkillable town or a town with very few power roles remaining. For example, if a Sheriff has just claimed obviously the Mafia is going to want to take them out, but if they know that a Doctor will surely be protecting them the most logical target for the Mafia is anyone but the Sheriff. Hence the doctors logical decision may not be to protect the Sheriff but rather someone else the Mafia may choose to attack. However the Mafia may predict this and attack the Sheriff anyway; but the Doctor might predict this and just protect the Sheriff and so on.
- See Also: WIFOM
Notes
- A doctor can only prevent one night attack; if a target is attacked by two attackers two doctors must heal the target in order for them to survive.
