Bomber: I have always despised roles that have a rampage mechanic (killing all visitors to the target) as it can be extremely unbalanced. I prefer killing roles with set ability (ex: kill your target).

Mademan: The last attribute makes the role a non-ranked, non-classic, exclusive role. Even so, the ability to convert an enemy into an ally and still retain ability in the faction (before the conversion, you have another Mafia Support or Mafia Deception role) is very overpowered. Also, obligatory "conversion role!11!!!11!".

Goon: Pretend you have a team that consists of the Janitor, Consort, and Mafioso. You have the ability to clean, roleblock, and kill. If one of those players dies, you either lose the ability to clean or roleblock, leaving you with two unique abilities. Okay. Now, pretend you have a Goon, Consort, and Mafioso. You have the ability to roleblock and kill. Cool. If one of those players dies, you either lose nothing or the ability to roleblock, leaving you with two abilities. See the problem? In the first scenario, the Mafia not only starts out with more power, but they also have the same power as the Mafia in the second scenario once an ally is lost. This entire thing is basically me saying the Goon is useless.

Switchoor: If you switch the votes of two players, the role has no use as those votes will still appear in some way. The only thing this can do is put a little suspicion on enemies (in which case, "I had my vote switched, other player come out"), or it can softcounter the Mayor. Either way, not a fan of this role.

Disguiser: People put their names in their wills, so this change just makes the Disguiser worse than it already is. This is also just a Janitor clone as it hides the target's role and will.

The Goon is worse than useless: if the Goon saves someone, the person they save is confirmed Mafia. 2 for 1!
