Among Us is the latest sensation among streamers and pretty much the entire gaming community. It is a game that is seemingly easy but can get extremely complicated as the play goes on. Even though the game has 2 Impostors in every round, it can get really difficult for the Impostors Thankfully, Jack ‘CouRage’ Dunlop shared this amazing ‘500iq’ tip that will definitely work if done correctly.

A couple of days ago, Jack streamed a game of Among Us with streamers like Ninja, Valkyrae, DrLupo, Sykkuno, and a few others. The game began with him and DrLupo being the Impostors. This is when he suddenly had a brainwave and decided to try something. While the other players went away to do their tasks, CouRage pretended to be AFK and remained in the cafeteria.

Surprisingly, when the first round was over, no one suspected him as he just stayed idle and did nothing. But, as the rounds progressed, people died and the players figured out that Dr Lupo was on impostor and kicked him out. At this point, CouRage was still pretending to be AFK and remained in the cafeteria.
