While it is true that impostors need to kill nearly all of their compatriots, it may be worthwhile to pick who an impostor wants to avoid killing. A good part of the game is dedicated toward kicking out players, which means impostor players may want to tilt things in their favor by leaving less skilled players alive since they are less likely to determine an impostor’s identity. Beginner players are especially useful in this regard, since their newness to the game means they are not privy to how the game works yet.
