Top 10 Best Among Us Impostor Strategies

This is one of the most efficient ways to ensure that the crewmates aren't on your tail and that you don't get voted off and ejected in the first two meetings. Make sure to act as "casually" as possible, but don't act too casual either.

You don't want people to assume that you are the imposter because you're randomly accusing players out of nowhere. You don't want to be that type of person.

As an imposter, you want to blend in as much as possible. That's why you need to vote, accuse, and talk as if you were a crewmate. Be as honest as possible so you aren't suspicious, but don't be too aggressive either.

Instead of calling out, "I think it's blue," say something like, "I thought I saw pink complete a task, so he's in the clear."

In general, avoid venting out into hallways. I don't ever really vent unless I need to get away quickly or the lights are out.

Vents can be useful to travel from place to place, but beware of who else is around you because if someone sees you vent, then that's pretty suspicious.

Under no circumstances do you vent with other people watching.

Self-report and accuse another imposter. Then everyone will think you're legit.

Sometimes it's difficult to team up and coordinate with other imposters. In certain situations, if everyone unanimously votes for the imposter, you might have to as well just to stay in the game.

Remember, fitting in is important.

It's a bit selfish, but defending them will get the crewmates even more suspicious.

Yeah, if the evidence is overwhelming, don't defend them.

When at least four players are standing in the same spot and one of them gets stabbed to death, it is very hard to determine who the killer was. You, as an imposter, should make use of that.

Especially in the security rooms, since people will be on camera and not have a clue what goes on behind them.

I always sabotage lights, and when there are a lot of crewmates on the lights, I will kill.

Obviously, only crewmates can complete tasks, so faking one when other players are near can give you an alibi. To fake a task, stand still in the task spot and wait a bit. Try to leave just after the task bar in the upper left corner fills up to prove that you really did it.

Be careful about which tasks to do. Don't do a short one and be there for 20 seconds or vice versa. Stay away from visible tasks as you can't fake those ones.

Yeah, don't try to fake trash, med-bay scan, or asteroids. If you are on a map that has the mazes, I recommend doing that. You can make the excuse that you keep messing up.

1. Lights
2. O2
3. Reactor
4. Doors
5. Avert Crash Course
6. Comms
7. Seismic Stabilizers

Lights is definitely the best because it limits vision, making it harder to have any evidence. Avert Crash Course and Seismic Stabilizers are behind because they have 60/90 seconds to fix.

Sabotage is a great tool to split the crew up and can force them into a death trap because they have to fix it or it's an automatic game over. You just camp there and then bam, you strike.

I like to turn out the lights and camp in electrical to wait for someone to come by and try to turn the lights on again.

Among Us is a game all about lies and deception, and one of the only pieces of reliable information to the crew is visible tasks to prove innocence. The fewer innocent people there are, the more they will begin to question each other.

You want to cause as much chaos as possible, so those known to be innocent should be your primary targets.

Yes. Imagine if there are four people and I'm an imposter. Blue scans, and I kill yellow. Green sees the body. So that means he'd know it was me because if blue scans, it couldn't be him.

AKA the ones who vote for you. I guess this is similar to "Kill those known to be innocent."

I always do that. Whenever someone snitches on me, I isolate them and kill them.

Definitely. Also, make sure you don't walk into the room with someone you're about to murder with cameras on. Someone smart may notice the other person didn't come out.

Obviously, you'd never kill when the red lights are blinking on the cameras. Be sure to pay attention if someone is watching. They may get offline and then back on to catch you in the act.

If you're about to kill someone in the hallway, always make sure to look and see if the cameras have the red light on. I learned this the hard way.

A lot of people pay attention to who people vote for, but when they vote is also important. Generally, those who wait are pretty suspicious, while those who vote early are innocent, but that's not always the case.

If you wait too long to cast your vote, people will begin to suspect something is up.

If anonymous votes are off, remember who voted for you (if any) when you weren't brought up as a suspect in the chat. You'll want to kill that person as soon as possible.

If you vote too early, you're suspicious, but if you vote too late, people will think something's up, especially if they're voting out your impostor buddy.

Alright, there was this one person who turned out to be the imposter, and there weren't many people left. He was red, and I suddenly realized that he wasn't talking while the other crewmates were blaming themselves. Everybody ignored him.

I cleared my mind and then figured out that HE was the imposter. It was suspicious that he wasn't chatting. So, before he could kill anyone else, I called a meeting and made it clear that he was the suspicious guy. And that's the story, my friends. He nearly got away, but I caught him!

Yeah, one time, someone was about to press the button, but I switched on the reactor and everyone moved but him. Even though he didn't know it, he was standing right next to the other imposter, so he got killed and I won.
