True, you will do more damage with Gawain plus D'Art line atk/def debuff. But that assuming that you hit hard enough to have 20k per turn difference with ambush + sniper. Because Mordred gives those 4 DoTs that deal together around 20k per turn. Plus you get blind and charm if they land. Early on it was very useful for me to have enemy miss or not act at all.

So in short: Early on Mordred is better that Gawain + sniper.
