Best way to play hypno, is to stay the fuck home and fake claim a TI role, to cause a mislynch and take the heat off of your more important team mates. Unless that 1 in 10000 games happens where a hypno message can be actually useful. (at 11k games so far (not all of them mafia games tho)....still never thought ''I wish we had a hypno right now'').
Its new to classic, but claiming trans in coven dlc, is pretty much an insta lynch, especially if youve only transed sus people/dead people/yourself with a townie. (idk do people pay attention to trans early transes after it turns out the guys he claimed to trans were mafia, in classic?)
Same with escort....sooner or later you are gonna RB someone that visits and receives info.
I actually made a thread about all of the hypno messages and how shit they are: viewtopic.php?f=14&t=110246&hilit=+hypnotist (this was before it was added to classic - still, it hasnt changed, people just arent used to it yet.....)

I just "trans" a random townie n1, and I tell my mafia to claim transed if they get caught by a TI. This strat works pretty well in most gamemodes, including in ranked sometimes though that depends on the skill of the people you're playing with. It has the potential to get 2 townies killed for free (accusing TI and the guy you hypno'd). If there's a spy though, you're not gonna be useful anyway so there's really no downside to this strategy. You can also try making someone think they were healed when one MK is unable to kill, and a spy won't be able to disprove this, but it's pretty easy to tell especially if you aren't going with a doc claim, as no one will claim to have healed the guy you hypno'd.

Makes sense on paper, but in reality when theres a surprise doc n5 (when the sus mafioso is jailed/RBed) it tends to fall apart prettyf fast and 2 maf are outed instead of 1.
Claiming transed AFTER the TI has posted info is kind of a dead give away as well. Sure theres a townie claiming transed (if theres no spy in game), that can make noobs question whether to vote or not..... but after you claim trans and post your will (because town will be pushing the trans to claim and say who the TI found AND just having the role exist forces transporters to post their will within 3 seconds of day 2 starting, to confirm themselves) either they lynch the TIs target, see hes mafia, which gets you jailed and exed n2, or mislynch the townie, see hes town and you or the TI's target gets jailed and exed n2 and the other lynched day 3.
So while the deception is effective on noobs, on pros you are basically outing 2 mafia at once...
