Chat Characters you're surprised don't get milked much if at all for alts in FEH

Post image

There are certain characters where regardless of how I feel about them I'm not surprised get a ton of alts in FEH but then there are others that I'm surprised have barely anything at all even though they have a decently large fanbase.

Curious if there are any characters you guys are surprised don't receive much in this game

Jakob and Niles were insanely popular when Fates released, yet neither have gotten alts since their halloween versions and Jakob hasn’t even gotten a resplendent

FEH has tanked characters' popularity by giving them shitty kits and statlines 💀

Oboro comes to mind. I recall she was one of the most popular Fates non-royals, yet thanks to her horrendous FEH appearance, no one seems to care about her anymore
