Among Us Fans Showcasing Hilarious
High-IQ Play
The Player
of Among Us takes advantage of the lack of voice chat in places to ask the
public to make a great big brain game like the Impostor.
Public lobbies in video games often contain strangers, and in social media platforms such as Among Us, this creates an ideal playground. For co-workers, the game revolves around being able to see what is being told and lying to catch cheaters, and for scammers, the game revolves around being able to escape with lies by killing co-workers.
This concept works well for lobbies full of people
who don’t play together often so they don’t have a lot of previous experience
working with them.
A Follower Among Us who goes by PhantomHylian on Reddit has used this fact to gain victory as the Impostor. When Redditor accidentally killed a man in front of Crewmate, they turned the situation around by pretending their accuser, AlexAce, was their Impostor partner, who was new to the game and did not know how to avoid reporting his partner's murder.
The move made the suspect so suspicious that
the Crewmates chased after Phantom, making the latter team the winner.

The plan
worked because no one in the reception area knew each other, so AlexAce had no
real way of defending himself from Phantom. If everyone had at least some
previous experience with each other, Alex's Crew colleagues would probably have
seen that humorous lie. They could use his knowledge of his style of play or
personality to determine if he would be such a jerk, or if he was a new player
at the time.

though all of this, however, Phantom’s lies remind us of the old beauty of our
memes, especially those that revolve around new players asking everyone else
why their names aren’t as red as they and their partners are. Like Phantom's
strategy, these players play on the idea that new players don't really know
what they're doing, and as a result, they end up being killed themselves and
their Impostor duo. It is funny to see a strategy instead used by a Deceiver to
kill a co-worker successfully.
InnerSloth
developer plans to perform among us 15 Players soon, so the power of the game
shenanigans should grow slightly. The idea of 15 people
typing at the same time already sounds confusing; following a conversation
should be a challenge in itself. Who knows, maybe some new great brain games
will appear in extended numbers. After all, it is not uncommon for lobbies to
make good use of three tricks.
