You should make a list of the best fake claims for every evil role. This would be insane for the new and intermediate players. (Not because i need that)

Yo pipe if you make guides like this more often I’d totally watch em 😉

Here's one I often think about: The game hinges on voting power. So if you're a town role that can kill, you have a lot of ability to secure a win for your team by increasing your voting margin and potentially getting rid of a killer. But you ALSO can ensure a defeat by offing a friendly voter AND yourself in the process. Few shots are 100% sure things, but gamble wisely. Or don't even take a gamble at all. If you're not fairly sure, it's better to let your power go unused (if you can), than to do two nights of the coven's work for them.

This game is TOUGH for new players to get into, so im really glad you made this. Sometimes we teach a lot about advanced strats and forget new players need the basics. (Not just saying this list is purely the basics it gets more advanced towards the end but point still stands)

1. Make a will 0:18
2. Track claims. Keep track of claims 0:48
3. Post results. Post TI results at the start of everyday 1:12
3+ Hang TI's that post late
4. Hang players who don't defend themselves 1:34
5. Whispering. Utilize the whispers 1:50
5+ Form alliance between other town. Deceive other team.
6. Track whispers 2:22

9+ Do not attack non-threats, you will lose

12+ If you're stuck claim TS, TP, or TK, especially on day 2 with VFA. Will likely need a role by day 4/5
13. Back up (your) teammates if they're in trouble 5:25
13+ Know when to cut your loses, don't follow them to hell. If your coven is pushing someone, vote and guilty them if it's safe to do so. Don't go against your coven, unless it's gonna mess you up. If you're teammate has been voted, but town is unsure, then back up your teammate.
14. Post Psychic visit 6:52

17. Silent Jailor 8:21
17+ If the first thing they post is "Hi"/"Hello" or if the don't claim/post execute them immediately.
18. Identity theft is bad. Do not let people steal your claim 8:59

19+ Example: 1 Coven, 2 Town, 1 WW, do not attack if you are coven
20. Pay attention to your number 9:40

As "backing up teammates" goes, being able to sow any amount of doubt _at all_ in a claim can be helpful. I was in a game as Illusionist where I managed to get my Coven Leader out of being lynched on the day they decided to disempower their offense--they got _roleblocked_ and the Tavern Keeper outed themselves as the one roleblocking. CL had killed a basic defense NE on N1, so town kept going "it's coven leader, it's coven leader game"; for a while, I'd pushed Enchanter as a counter possibility hoping to sow distrust in TI results; in that moment, I pivoted to "it's a CL game and they're empowering offense, they can't be roleblocked" and _got the CL off the stand._

Rit dumped the Tavernkeep into the trash that night and we went on to win that game.

[oldpernilong]

I love saying "why me" as jester it is so funny.

[mysterystring-]

Nice!
I'll keep these tips in mind!
It seems to all boil down to one basic concept: "Pay attention to the situation at hand"
I played a decent bit of ToS 1 and always noticed that people who were distracted died or were hanged pretty quick, but if you put your full focus on the game, more often than not, that was enough to get close to a win

Unless you got Medium
Then you always died n1

[Adagia]

5:28 SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK

[-_noble_-]

Wanted to make sure the 'why me' was in here. Not disappointed😂

[motorhead]

Great guide and content overall. Been getting back into ToS 2 because of your videos.I also started rolling when you casually said "if you're jester... Say why me?" 😂

[kamronik]

Im a new player and things like this help. Especially when no one else are making these. So I've just been watching you play the game and making notes on why you do things the way you do and try to implement them in my own games

[DodoKingThest]

Funny enough I picked up these 20 tips and tricks from simply watching PipeTron but it's great to see it all in one video! I see so many players not post as TI without a good excuse or not claiming right away when I jail them when they are town(they claim tp or ts sometimes).

[rickmaior]

About whispers i had a funny game the other day, i was pros, claiming psy, and asked people for roles, one of them whisper me tpow, a few second later i see 2 people whispering followed by a Conjurer comet, i then proceed to pros the track claim that whisper another guy. He was wildling, the day after we hanged the conjurer.

[eliseo]

Lol, I've been saying hang "Why me" since TOS1 was new and it's funny how it always holds true. Evils can't help but say it.

[gorkem]

i'll add one more, if u dont wanna die n1 u should speak d1. just say random things and people will think your vet baiting and wont attack most of the time

[Vearru]

As executioner it can be okay to say your target is inno, in this game since you can pick a new target if they die if they look like they are town with a claim that could get you voted first it’s better to just wait for them to be killed and then choose a target that’s much more likely to be guiltied.

THANK YOU pipetron for showing us the top 20 tips in Town of Salem Two to become a PRO as the YOUTUBER role...

[spanailos]

Nice quick infos even for someone like me who played the Game for a little while now.
I only say the Jailor Tipp is a bit... weird. I say and will always say "Hey" or "Hi" when I get jailed, bacause I am a polite person. :)

[bigmemvb]

So scared to even start this game cuz it feels like you need 4000 IQ for it
