Serial Killer - Escort - BG interaction

[cebkel]

I was playing a round as Serial Killer. I planned to attack player A, who had a Bodyguard B on them. However, that night I was roleblocked by Escort C. Since I was not cautious, I ended up killing Escort C. However, I also initiated the Bodyguard's ability and died to the Bodyguard, even though I was roleblocked.

This shouldn't have happened, should it?

If I was roleblocked but my original target didn't have a bodyguard on them, that original target wouldn't have died anyways. So then, why did I die to bodyguard if I didn't attack the bodyguard's target?

did the BG die too?

You always attack your intended target in addition to any roleblockers when not going cautious

Ezra is correct. Serial Killer was buffed in patch 3.2.5, which was the Neutral Killing Buffs update. Serial Killer is now able to attack it's original target regardless of any role-blockers, and can choose whether or not to score secondary kills on role-blockers by use of their togglable 'Cautious' attribute.
