Can I just compliment everyone on how much enthusiasm they showed for the Ortho even though they have played with that character so many times? I know the Ortho meta can get really stale. Really fun to see.
wish i caught this live- classic ortho-shab! one of my fav interactions. orthodontist always makes such interesting games. i know this was the fool reveal but it absolutely stole the show! fantastic as always
I love the enthusiasm of everyone for this clearly brand new characters and asking all these great questions xD Honestly, this is amazing and so much fun^^ "Yeah, I don't think they'll like that, so I'll go ahead and lose this." Lol. Oh Milk. It was just bad luck, really. Not like he tried to cause this to happen!
Yes you can ortho a voudon as the voudon is a character with a mouth. I think a better question is wether the snout of the plague doctor counts as a mouth and can be orthoed.
@Tawnyami I was unsure if one was allowed to become a traveller. Following your line of thought however, it is completely unfair how the golem lacks a mouth where there is certainly room to put one.
I strongly agree that the golem should have a mouth, any ortho daring enough to attempt using the ability of an outsider to help their team should be allowed to. I also do sadly understand your earlier confusion about the specifics of the ability, you would think a character that’s been public for YEARS would be more consistent in it’s ruling. For example you can ortho into a pixie, even though it’s icon is a plushie with no mouth in sight (even if a mouth was visible the seen mouth wouldn’t even be real) meanwhile you CAN’T ortho into a knight which would be just as likely (if not more!) to have a mouth hidden underneath the helmet.
I always thought it was silly that the ortho can gain the ability of characters without teeth (such as the fisherman and raven keeper) when it is based off a specialty of teeth lol. My group has always joked about the pacifist dove and raven keeper raven having a special “beak dentist”.
SPOILERS FOR THE WHOLE THING I've always been a prononent that the best way to show off a new goodie character is to give them as a demon bluff so I was very pleased, it really helped Milk get off the block on that first day though it could also have been interesting to have him die to imply somebody nearby as the No Dashii, this also makes me think that with the Yaggababble you could take off a real Fool's extra life rightt before execution to do the same, it's a very interesting character and I'm looking forward to seeing more of it. Also gotta say, I was skeptical of Bort mantaining madness through Day 3 but it really paid off with the classic Orthodontist-Shab eat the demon in the night phase to win the game, which I still think should be Jinxed in some way. Either way GG to everyone involved.
"The first time you die, you don't." What happens the second time you die? Logically I would assume you still don't die, but it's not clear from the token. This character is really complicated and I want to make sure I don't confuse my players when I explain it to them.
that it specifies "the first time" i would have thought it was clear. it just blocks the first time you would die from happening. it really doesnt seem that complex, any subsequent "kills" would be effective
@@DP9k Then it should say "The second time you die, you do"? So if you're protected by the Devil's Advocate or Innkeeper the second time, you die anyway? All the crazy interactions make my head hurt. I don't even want to think about what happens on the third death. Maybe my group isn't ready for characters this advanced yet.
@@stephenberg6438 why? its redundant to say that. under that logic it should also say it for every whole number infinitely. if it helps you can think of it as an ability that activates automatically once. it stops you from dying once. it doesnt change any rulings about death aside from the first instance in which all it does is protect you. if you wouldnt die such as DA or inn keeper protection then it wouldnt activate, because you werent going to die. if it has activated once it will not protect you again. it does exactly what it says, nothing more, nothing less. there are no tricks to it, no clauses or exceptions. it protects the character from death one single time.
@@stephenberg6438 i dont know why you would think that would be the case. the character does excactly what it says it does. the first time you die, it protects you. it does nothing more and nothing less. you have created exceptions and clauses where none exist. it is one of the most simple interactions that can exist in this game
This game was brilliant. I'm glad Milk got what he deserved with saying the phrase 6 times. Still I feel like pinning Milk and Reznora against each other on final 3, while Rez is claming that they only pick themself was a missed opportunity.
I'm sad I'm late to this reveal because the Fool is so interesting! Can't wait to see what scripts people come up with to showcase it. *Spoilers:* I can't believe you actually clicked to read more. [Insert Fool emote]
Wondering at what point PI is either going to stop introducing new characters or remove previous ones from sanctioned play. New is fun, but this format can only support so much variety of ability and interaction before the mechanism begins falling apart.
If you want to play online, the unofficial Discord server has over 10,000 members. If you sign up for the official app, you'll also get access to the official Discord server. If you want to play in-person then I'd recommend checking out your local board game store/cafe. - Ben
Hi Ben.. thank you for such a prompt reply. I was planning on getting the app. I hadn’t appreciated that that also gave you access to potential people to play with which is awesome. Love the game
Is the Mandela Effect going on right now? I swear I remember seeing the fool in play before. Though I guess it might be April Fools joke? As they named the vid "Fuel". But I thought I saw this char in play before.
Hey!! Just so you know my pronouns are she/they. As for the gane mentioned I don’t have a link but it’s on this channel from like June 2022 or around there
@@DakotaAvery23 Thanks. Also sorry I actually knew but typed by mistake. Just edited it now. I anyways plan to check old videos one by one whenever I get time as I started following this channel very recently. I was following NRB & ECG before.
I believe this may be their april fool's game... It was released on Sunday which technically may have been 3/31/24, but that would show on saved broadcasts as 4/1/24.
Can I just compliment everyone on how much enthusiasm they showed for the Ortho even though they have played with that character so many times? I know the Ortho meta can get really stale. Really fun to see.
For those unaware, this game was recorded on April 1st. April *fools!*
Thank you, I was watching this later in April and they got to YaggaBabble and I was soooo confused
wish i caught this live- classic ortho-shab! one of my fav interactions. orthodontist always makes such interesting games. i know this was the fool reveal but it absolutely stole the show! fantastic as always
I thought the silence near the beginning was on purpose
I think the fool is a broken townsfolk who will destroy the whole game if it isn't changed or removed before it's added to any official script
I think it’s worse than the Sailor, personally
“And then there was Reznora… but we’ll come back to that”
Kudos to BoTC for creating a brand new character with it's wiki & everything just for the April foolery & also create a suitable script for it!!
It’s so interesting to see a character as experimental as the Fool in play. PMI is really cooking with this one.
It took me way too long to figure out why they were all insisting this was the reveal for a Bad Moon Rising character.
If there's an Ortho SW and a real SW and the demon is killed, you get two copies of the same demon.
As we've seen many times before.
This might be my new favorite game of clocktower, that was insane 😆
This video makes my teeth hurt.

I love this so much, Fool is such an interesting character!
I don’t like that Jen chose the Shab ability. I’ve been in similar games where the ortho chooses a demon ability and it always costs good the game
Even when I'm not the Fool I'm still the fool.
How tf did Milk get away with the phrase so many times day one 😂
I seem to have forgotten a common ruling. Can one ortho a Voudon? I know it's definitely come up before, but it's slipping my mind.
Yes you can ortho a voudon as the voudon is a character with a mouth. I think a better question is wether the snout of the plague doctor counts as a mouth and can be orthoed.

Hillariously you can, with no confusion whatsoever, ortho a fisherman

Awesome game as always, really showcases the new characters. Top 3 of all time for the gaslighting alone
The real fool was the demon friend we made along the way.
This is delightful.

What a magnificent ending. Beautiful game, had a lovely time watching it.
It took me 4 minutes to figure out that it was April fools day and not some several-year-old re-upload. Foolish Martian.
Question, doesn't the evil team win since the shab deaths are in order? And once milk dies there are 2 living players and the demon is alive.
Once Milk died and before Reznora died 3 players were alive
D'oh. Missed that brendan was still alive.
This game was brilliant. I'm glad Milk got what he deserved with saying the phrase 6 times. Still I feel like pinning Milk and Reznora against each other on final 3, while Rez is claming that they only pick themself was a missed opportunity.
What a beautifully foolish endeavor!

Yes

had a chance for a neutral game??? would have been the first and super funny

I pity the fool bluff.

Fool? Haven't they been around for two years now?
I'm guessing this EP was filmed on April fool's
@paarthanax3185 yeah

@@Mangaleechmost of the time it is simultaneously both Sunday and Monday, so maybe it was already Monday somewhere in the world

Maybe i missed some talk in the setup about it being April fools day
@@Denzarkithis is streamed on April fools yes, also orthodontist is an April fools character
Why are they talking about the fool as if it is new?
Because that is the joke - that Fool is the new character, and Orthodontist has been there a long time.
April fools stream
I like Rez but snakecharmer cowardice is beyond boring.
It's a valid strat, in particular it lets the Snakecharmer know that if someone claims to have been charmed it means they're full of shit.
