I think I have to go with Crusader here.

Ambusher does not have to kill. They can wait and become the next mafioso or just be used as a vote. Even waiting for an almost majority to kill the last few people is smart. Even if they do kill, they can easily be used to get rid of a Town Protective role (esp doc) Ambusher is also unique, so it can't be rolled twice (unlike crusader), and waste two mafia slots.

On top of all of that, if an Ambusher plays smartly, they can actually be quite useful. You can go for someone who is poisoned since you might be able to catch a doc. You avoid people who will have multiple people (like someone who was really suspicious, since they may have multiple TI going for them) Visit someone who isn't that noticeable since not many people will visit them usually, but enough so you can make a difference.
