Which NE hurts the Town the Most?

Executioner - Every claim is questioned, every accusation could be false. The Sheriff who found the Mafia could be the Executioner killing a confirmed townie. As players get smarter, more creative ways to kill have come up and you could never guess how the accusation will go. If the Executioner is truly exceptional, they may waste a day for Town when it matters most.

Jester - Town's main form of killing is lynching, so when a Member of the Mafia is on trial and says ludicrous things or has a claim so terrible it must be fake, they are guilty. Right? The Jester questions all of that. It makes people fear guilty. It makes people fear voting. If the Jester is truly exceptional, they may kill the town's most vital member with nothing able to counter it.

Witch - Numbers are essential to the Town when the game hits a 6 v 4 v 1 v 1 (12 players) or lower the Town is desperate to lynch. The Witch is unlike the Jester and Executioner, the Witch may win with the Mafia and NK. That's not their only ability, they may hurt visits to and from many players. Retributionist? A useless townie with no revive. Vigilante? Kills themselves and another. If the Witch is truly exceptional, they may find information and corrupt visits to secrete the mafia victory.
