It is a very powerful roles, it jas the ability to immediately find most evils in a ranked game. Comparing this to invest, Sheriff is much more certain, with the cost of not finding a few roles. However the major thing that sets sheriff back is its easy claim, it is not difficult to fake a will of a sheriff, and executioners commonly use it as a claim to lynch a townie. This is the sort of thing that kind of sets sheriffs back in power. Plus, if somebody is accused of mafia, they just have the easy excuse of 'I was framed', if there is no spy, or the classic 'hes exe'. More often than not these will happen, and normally there is no way of telling between them. Still, sheriff is such a powerful role that it normally is worth the risk that they might be exe, and to lynch the said evil. But if there is more than 1 sheriff, then it kind of becomes counter-productive, as there is no way of finding certain evils with only sheriffs. Better 1 sheriff than 2 or 3.
