The point of most antagonists is that they have their own goals in mind.
Only gangs and conspirators HAVE TO work together. Gangs vs other gangs.. and conspirators against the crew in secret (and since most antags work alone it's why they are the least popular ones)
Yes, also Nukies... I didn't forget them. But they are can still work indivually and be dangerous. Gangs and Conspirators need some stealth.
But every other one is doing their own thing. In fact some antagonists are encouraged to fight eachother as they get in eachothers way regardless.
A vampire and changeling both want to kill for their own reasons, they COULD work together, but both want as much resources from dead players thus are enemies most of the time.
Now imagine the polymorphing/clown's revenge wizard doing their thing and you are a changeling, he is effectively taking out your food and making them unable to be consumed.. (Well cluwnes can be consumed but everyone will notice em)
At this point you have the tools to knock the wizard out for good so security isn't on high alert constantly.
Remember Stealth Antagonists do not like rampaging antagonists cause they put security on high alert looking for them, thus the stealthers might get caught.
Stealth antagonists like antagonists who cause chaos in 1 point so Security ain't looking across the station to do their antagging.
Rampagers run around and go everywhere.
