Setups featuring New Roles

Lucid's almost done adding roles for this wave, so it's time to make some new setups incorporating them. After all, they're not just for Sandbox.

WHAT THE F'UCK IS BUTTERFLY LOL

I think Butterfly could be really interesting in a medium-sized setup where all sides have a role with a powerful one-shot ability. Would they dare to restore the Ghoul and Bulletproof if it means the live Sniper gets to shoot again? That sort of thing.

Also, Bride with Tailors, plural.

New roles don't add anything to the game. They're just overcomplicated and old roles can achieve those mechanics with certain role combinations.
Out of all of the roles added in this latest batch, I'd say the biggest "retreads" are Justice and Cutler. Butterfly and Huntsman can't just be achieved with old role combinations, nor can Monkey. Snowman turns anybody into a daytime drunk/hooker which is pretty good. Prosecutor has a lot of use (probably more than the Judge, I'd say.)
Butterfly and Huntsman are useless and stupid. Use shrinks and play gallis hunter. Monkey is an overpowered driver. Snowman is a day roleblocker, we have 3 official roleblocking roles. Prosecutor is selfvote for someone to hammer it.

Versions of roles that have been made for the other alignement are unoriginal. Except hooker and drunk, Don and Governor, paparazzi and oracle & lookout and watcher.

This is a good setup: https://epicmafia.com/setup/1369769

I made it too, which makes it even better.

Setups with prosecutor are like: everybody selfs so prosecutor gets hammered.

The problem is that some new roles are glitched and not completely tested and it might take a while to fix them.

As far as I'm aware, only Sidekick and Snowman are currently activated in Main. There's a good few setups using them already:

This Huntsman/Prosecutor setup is pretty good in my opinion:
