Which Gambit is the most effective?

The one you don't play.

I like the scotch gambit, it's very solid. Queen's gambit is good. Stafford gambit is deadly, especially at 800 level bullet.

The best gambits are:
Queen's Gambit and Catalan for white, Two Knight's Defense and Marshall Attack for black.
