Sheriff is good because it can find mostly all evils and there are only a few counters. The results from a confirmed Sheriff are very trustworthy. He also is better than the Investigator because if someone asks the Investigator to confirm himselves by posting his results, an evil is alarmed already, while Investigator is a pretty good TI already.

So 1 point for Sheriff, 0 for other TI's.

The Lookout can find evils and confirm townies by watching the right targets. But aren't this 2 things the Sheriff can also do? Since not all ppl are visitors, a good Lookout that plays smart sees ~1 visitor every night. 1 result for both roles, however, Lookout's result sometimes doesn't say anything anout innocent or scum.

2 points for Sheriff, 0 for other TI's.

The Spy's skill with the mafia visits isn't very hard. If a player has a bit experience, he can play Spy. The bugs never do much, except sometimes confirm ppl. This is something the Sheriff can do, so that's equal. However, the Spy's mafia visits is based of how well the mafia plays because of the Spy can play well probably. If the mafia plays well, the Spy could be countered by lots of roles.

3 points for Sheriff, 0 for other TI's.

The Tracker is alot like Lookout, but better. He has the same blind spot as the Lookout, however, he has a result every night like the Sheriff. The Tracker also can't be stopped by the Framer, plus, he can also see if a player doesn't visit.

3 points for Sheriff, 1 for ofher TI's.

The Psychic can give out very trustworthy results. However since it's only used in Coven, the game has a chance of a Pirate also. Keeping him alive can help town however since he's NC he's evil to the Psychic. That's a counter for the evil results with a Pirate in it. Same for confirmed town in the good results. And btw, it happens ALOT. So Psychic isn't that well, and the good or evil player in the result dieing the same night doesn't mean much also. So lots of counters, and it's luck-based.

4 for Sheriff, 1 for other TI's.

Sheriff is ranked 2nd from all TI's and ranked 1st from all that can appear in Non-Coven.

Sheriff is a good role.
