Top 10 WORST Operators In Arknights

[@SUPAH_SUPAH_SUPAH]

Apologies for a bunch of editing mistakes in the subtitles. I'm also really busy with Uni lately. I should specify the Honorable mentions aren't better than 10th place. They are somewhere around 5th, I just did not have enough to say about them to make an entire list spot. I am SO getting my ass beat for putting Carnelian on here. But you only hate me because I tell you the truth. I also forgot to credit someone for a video, it's Aussiroth. Check them out. Discord: discord.gg/superincorporated - - THE COPIUM ARGUMENTS - - “But SUPAH, I use them all the time just fine!”, or, “I only use the bad operators, therefore they’re good”. It doesn’t work like that. It’s more a merit of you the player, managing to get these horrible operators to function. Not of the operators. - - - “But SUPAH, I don’t have the better alternatives!, or, “I don’t have the good operators, therefore the bad ones are good”. Yeah, no sh - t sherlock. This is a gacha game, each individual account will look different. If your account is only composed of operators you found looking through the trash, they’re obviously gonna be useful. You don’t have anything else. Also the support system exists. Any form of ranking operators with each other assumes you have an optimal account, otherwise "Bigger picture" operator reviews would be impossible if you had to account for the fact each individual account differs from one another. - - - “But SUPAH, what about this playstyle that uses them!”, or, “They have a niche where they’re decent, so they’re good”. Again, doesn’t work like that. This list is assuming you’re a normal player. And very very often the niches for bad operators just are not relevant enough, like various Nicheknights. That’s cool if you’re the best in the “Invis removal for players who do not use male operators” niche, but that’s not a big enough niche to be even worth considering. "But Nightmare is a good healer in Casterknights!", cool! But it's not worth mentioning for all the 5 people that play casterknights. - - - “But SUPAH, just play them like this! Or don’t use the bad skills!”, or, “Bad operators are good if you ignore the bad parts”. Again, no. Just because you personally ignore Quartz’s Skill 2, that abomination, doesn’t make the skill magically not exist anymore. The bad parts are still parts of the operator even if you ignore them. - - - BONUS COPIUM ARGUMENT: "But SUPAH, just use these other operators that cover their weaknesses!", or, "Bad operators are good if helped by good operators". Squad slot economy is very important when it comes to meta discussions. You have 12 slots, why should you use 3 slots to fit in a bad unit and like 2 other ops to help them out, when you could use 1 slot for a good unit instead? This is also why operators like Ling are extremely good. Ling is essentially an entire squad fit in 1 squad slot, allowing you 11 others for whatever you want. Also, if the operator needs to be helped out by others, then chances are they aren't very good in the majority of scenarios.

@@kurokaijo5909 the Archetype existed to let Lin exist Lin even had the nerve to make Aak her personal SP battery, since those 15 shots can be translated into 30sp in HALF A SECOND, greatly increasing her Avarage DPS, and the more sp you give to Aak through Saria, Ptilopsis or his own soon-to-come module, Lin's SP technically increases as well I like Carnelian a lot, and her pairing with Aak is extremely fun, but I have to admit that Aak's pairing with Lin seems 100 times better and more flexible

[@CrRaZzyX]

Hey just wanted to ask since I don't have her, why people shit in Carnelian and not Beeswax? Is it simply because a stronger kit is expected for a 6* and carnelians isn't up to the task? I know Lin is strong so I won't blame the archetype, but im kinda curious to know why, just numbers perhaps?

[@MrB10N1CLE]

@@CrRaZzyX my guesses 1) no one uses her (well, I do) 2) because her S2 actually works as a CC w/ low cost, good uptime, and ok burst dps. The enemies get stunned by pillar and gets blocked by it afterwards (3 block btw), which synergizes with her AOE attack (prob w/ AOE caster is that normally their DPS is shite because not enough enemies are nearby. Beeswax can block 3 w/ pillar + 3 from defender) 3) unlike Carn, she doesn't worry about chip damage because she regens like crazy on top of increased DEF and RES, so she's self sustaining. + enemies would prioritize pillar when skill is active. so she's a self-sustaining big red target

[@fishy_the_witch]

Seeing Corroserum in honorable mentions gave me flashbacks of being high on copium thinking he is going to be a good unit cause "Ifrit is good and hes a mini Ifrit". So i build him after he came out and tried to use him as much as possible and experiment around because "surely people are just overexagerating how bad he is". THIS DUDE IS AS BAD AS EVERYONE SAYS. Even in an ideal situation where you have a lane perfect for him and then also wanna silence enemies (sultifera navis had a bunch of stages where in theory he would have been great) he cant perform at all. He doesnt even work in his own niche. Its a pain in the ass to get his S2 useable due to costing 40sp at M3 for a shitty silence any other unit with silence would have done better, faster and more efficent. His S1 is an even more shitty attack up that also stuns himself cause fuck Corroserum. The stun is supposed to make him trigger his Talent for more Sp when not attacking but the Talent is like a piss drop of Sp and does nothing. Dont do copium cause it makes you build units like Corroserum.

[@marielcarey4288]

Tbh I find even with his "self buffing laneholder" style he isn't good at all. I completely maxed him. His s1 is tragic since after you use your devices, he's got no devices. So he can't buff anyone, not even himself. The damage of his s1 is okay, fun in IS with crit relics, but thats it. And his s2 is okay, but still heavily shafted by nature since his device duration sucks, he doesn't cycle them fast enough, and of course, the class restriction. He's literally just a pioneer vanguard with no dp regeneration and decent single target damage. A 2 block mediocre dreadnought. I try so hard to find a place for him, but I can't. He's supposed to have 1 unique thing to him, but he's completely devoid of a niche with Stainless' existence. Heck, even Roberta has a niche with her immortal single hit shields, which get even better with her module :( I say this with love since I I'm a huge simp for him, but there's no hope left with how bad his module was.

[@altocshi]

One interesting note about Spuria, when used with Snipers with slow-enough attack intervals (mainly besiegers and deadeye), the stun could be seen as a buff as it "forces" the stunned sniper's attack cooldown to reset after the stun ends. For Besiegers, it's about the same as their attack interval with the +40 ASPD, and for Deadeyes, it's actually shorter than their attack interval with +40 ASPD, meaning that getting the self-stun proc from Spuria makes their attack interval faster than it would have been with the +40 ASPD.

[@yanfenglin797]

u can also add in therapist to further reduce the stun time. tho this strat is probably never gonna be effective

[@KingOfHarems]

Ok, I’m going to play devils advocate for Carnelian. She has always been a funny unit when it comes to phalanx casters. The simple reason is that the first one we got was already an insane unit, and that was Beeswax. Beeswax’s health regeneration made it so that you could just use her as a ranged tank, and never use her skill. Carnelian has the tankiness, but no health regen until you pop her skill, giving her a bunch of health. The main problem now is that she’s super squishy and can’t tank, while Beeswax summons a replacement tank in her pillar. Of course, she does do a lot of damage and cc now, but if she was tanking before, she’s still tanking now, but without all the defense. Essentially, Carnelian’s main problem was that she had already been powercrept before she came out, by a lower rarity unit, by her sister. I think that if Carnelian had been a 5*, she would’ve been more highly looked upon, but as a 6*, she feels like she has the same problem that Saileach has, which is that lower cost variants are so strong in comparison to the lower cost. Even if Carnelian was the strongest phalanx caster, the improvement compared to the lower rarities is just not worth. She is hot though, so in the end, how could she be bad?

[@xkour2927]

How about using Gladiia instead of Beeswax to tank the damage. She can tank, heal and do damage.

[@gaoaibai6243]

I disagree with this notion tbh. Look Beeswax is a better ranged tank, that is true but her tanking capacity is overall INFERIOR to Lin with module, who has her OUTCLASSED in her niche. Carnelian on the other hand doesnt compete with any of this shenaningans she is a ranged tank too that is true BUT her niche is actually BURST DPS, kinda like an Eyja on steroids. Comparing a unit whose primary function is burst DPS to a unit who specializes in tanking... is like comparing apples to oranges just makes zero senses to me. The whole reason why people DO NOT put Carnelian on ANY "worst" top 10 of anything is because of her massive HP pool and giantic ATK stat. She is just the PERFECT target for Muelsyse to clone period, so she still has purposes unlike Beeswax which is now OUTCLASSED and POWERCREPT by Lin, while Carnelian still does tons of damage and the fact she has tankiness to go along with it too... is just the cherry on top tbh.

[@KingOfHarems]

@@xkour2927 Gladiia is also a viable. I think however, she falls into the same place of being a 6* vs 5*. The investment for Gladiia is a lot higher than Beeswax. Of course, if that's not a problem, she still has two advantages over Gladiia's tanking. As a caster, she has base 15 res, and her class gives her an extra 20 when not using skill, and her Obelisk is just a straight up chonk with 5k hp, and with a 30 cost skill, it's up time isn't too bad. Of course, Gladiia makes up for this with AH synergy, and general utility over Beeswax, so they do feel like they each have a place.

[@KingOfHarems]

@@gaoaibai6243 First, I'm a global player, so I can't say much about Lin or Muelsyse. But the main problem with Carnelian is how she's a good unit, but not a good phalanx caster. All 3 of the other casters have inbuilt solutions to their tanking issues. Firstly, as said, Beeswax summons a replacement tank, so she doesn't get killed. Mint reduces taunt level, so she no longer is the most likely to get attacked. And Lin, though I haven't used her, has barriers, and ways to gain barriers during her skill, which means she can still tank. Carnelian has no solution. Once she pops skill, has no way of not getting targeted or way of staying healthy. She does have her talent, but that's just a patch up more than a fix. The reason I compare Beeswax with her however is since she is a phalanx caster, and if she's not acting like a tank, she would've been better with another subclass with her kit. I don't think she's at all bad, I just think that she could've done with something extra, like maybe ramping health on kills or %health life steal just to make her more in line with the other phalanx casters. Side note though. I haven't seen her with module, and maybe that just fixes all the problems. But as I've said before, 5* vs 6* investment is heavily different. Which is why I also think Lin, even if she is really strong won't completely make Beeswax redundant (plus Beeswax has hp regen vs shields, which has it's slight niche in being self sustain than Lin technically needing a healer)

[@broadbandislife]

Just a nitpitck but you don't bring Saileach for the DP-printer duty Myrtle and Elysium handle much more cost-effectively, you bring her for the buff-debuff-CC hijinks she does with that javelin of a banner. The DP generation is just a bonus.

[@anhramainyu2027]

See the point in most of the video while the Kjera mention was unexpected. She do on average 6% more damage than Click (that is probably not an achivement but still it's already not the Click without damage how was stated in the video) and her control while is more RNG based is still on average the same amount of time of stalling the enemy if you do the calculation. Yeah, she is still your average caster with decent damage and okay-ish cc. She is slightly better than Click but much more expensive so it's not worth the investment if you going for efficiency. But honorable mention in the Top 10 Worst Operators? Nah, not even close, that's just objectively wrong even if we don't consider Gnosis as the option. Also she still has some potential to be MUCH better with just Gnosis on the field while Click is just cheaper and that's it.

Kjera skill 2 attacks do like 160 less DMG than GG s3 attacks. If Kjera finds that freeze they do more than ggs3. Kjera has a lower atk stat than GG, but a 19% atk boost from talent, and they both get 60 more from trust, which gives her more actual atk than GG. (GG 391, Kj 421 per hit, so GG 782 Kj 842 every attack) Then GG takes 80% up on s3, and Kjera takes 55% up and it gets close again with GG having slightly more. (GG 2111, Kj 1957) Then freeze has that 15% arts dmg up deal which gives Kjera more again. Unfortunately reliable freeze requires either another freezer or an aspd buffer. (Kj 2250) Now for why she's not a 6 star: GG s3 gets 50% uptime Kj s2 gets 33% uptime. GG gets global range and stun and 18% res shred so she's simply better, but in the game of big number go wow they're very close. Chill inflicts aspd down on enemies so it's just kind of okay.

I’m not going to lie- I only built Jackie because I thought brawlers were super cool, and kept her around because she thinks of the doctor like a second father figure and found that sweet. Bad operator, bad archetype, but she’s my daughter now. I’ll bring her to stages that are easy or just to see how it goes nowadays

[@Calvados656]

I think its funny that if you give Matoimaru her S2 she is just a better Quartz for all intents and purposes. Also Hung and Corroserum are always my "Why do you hate me Arknights?" pulls.

[@kolesgit969]

The fact that Supah start with 2 min explanation for people who will be offended and finish with insulting them as toddlers is amazing

[@AletesCabot]

So there are few things I'd like to point out 1. As Earthspirit is "situational" etc. I don't think she should be compared to operators like Suzu or Saria (but i do agree with the point she is weak, but usually 4 stars are weaker than 6 stars anyways) 2. I think Vigil "niche" if we can call it like that is his hybrid damage on s3 which is still... badly executed but that's my opinion on his situation. At least his art is good... 3. With Kjera on s2 I never really stuggled with applying Freeze (ofc Gnosis does that way better since it's not rng based) but on s1... (DAMN YOU ATTACK UP GAMMA). And after long time using her I wouldn't say she doesnt have damage as well but that's my personal experience, but imo... there are operators weaker than her that could be in honorable mentions I'm surprised that Kirara , Tomimi (yes she's cute but being melee unit when using skill is bit of... why), Nine coloured deer were not mentioned here

[@umbracloud2378]

For kirara, tomimi and nine color dear. I think people won't even bother to build them anyways. Since we already have a better version operator in our account. Not to mention their class & what they really offer is really niche. So, yeah. There you have it.

@@umbracloud2378 you would be surprised then coz i see in ak community lots of people building at least Tomimi. Dunno bout NCD and Kirara

[@umbracloud2378]

@@AletesCabot I bet the reason people building her because she offer to do both range and melee attack animation. I mean look at her kits. She tried to be a good DPS by offering nothing. That talent range is miserable. She need another ops (to block) + a good tile to get her maximum damage output. Also, if you tried beat a normal stage with her. Perhaps all you can do just hit 3x-6x at best while her skill 2 active (as the enemy run down with certain interval). Another thing, if I need an AOE operator that can deal good amount of dmg. A simple gitano or leonhardt is easily outclass her. That's a 4★ & 5★ common operator on every account. In conclusion, I understand Tomimi is a niche operator. However, people just don't bother to build her because her kit is too niche to be useful. Also, we can easily exchange her with somebody else that do the job better than her.

[@ixplorer734]

"If you put down a caster, why do you want it to heal" Reed alter: exists Also some of my thoughts and corrections: 1. You forgot about Carnelian's 2nd talent, so her overcharge timer is not x2, but more like x1.4, but only for 2nd part of the skill. That doesnt make her much better ofc, but her 2nd module may improve that in the future... :copium: They really did her dirty with the 1st one. 2. Spuria can actually buff some snipers with slow atk speed like Rosa (only s2, with s3 her stun just ends it, heh), so saying she only debuffs them is wrong. :) Again, that doesn't make less bad, but that's mostly bc of her trait. 3. Quartz has one redeeming quality - one of the best trading post skills, and it only requires E1.

[@hermanwillem7057]

she still need her multiplier to ne at max from the start to be competitive to other burst arts damage unit

[@zomfgroflmao1337]

You missed the part when Beeswax is actually better at the niche of her class than her higher rarity sister, because she actually heals while she does nothing, which means she actually can tank better in a lot of situations. The only one I disagree with is Nightmare. While her skills are way too expensive or controllable, her healing per second is actually bonkers and can make some heavy tank strategies possible (she heals not just two targets but also has more attacks than medics and a faster atk interval) and her second skill, while timing it can be problematic, can be used with shifters quite well. (Croissant is a very nice combo with her as she can stack 3 enemies while waiting for Nightmare and shift even more once the skill goes off, making her quite lenient for Nightmare S2 usage.) Also, I want to defend her art a bit, as she is arguably more a victim of early art direction than actually 'bad' art, as a lot of early operators have incredibly subdued art compared to later operators (just look a Liskarm, Jessica etc). I'm very sure that she would look amazing if the artist had the freedom the newer operators get in terms of art direction (given by their other artworks in other games), but sadly the artist didn't work with Hypergryph for a long time, so I doubt there will be updated art for her ever.

Good to know only mistake i made is e2 vigil and chestnut

[@Chaotick]

Kjera?! Had to do a double take at that one. I don't think anyone in the drone caster archetype should be anywhere near the bottom 10; their DPS is too solid, and the drone pursuing a target outside of their range-thing most of them get is too useful/unique. Click punching above her rarity is not enough of a reason. I was expecting a Skyfire: uniquely bad in a weak archetype, and her best DPS skill is Attack Up Gamma. Perfect fit!

[@prd6617]

regarding kjera, her cc are not reliable as other drone caster (click) and most of the time u need other ops with freeze skill to proc her cc and if u dont have gnosis or aurora (like me...) well better just bring click for cc or minimalist for dps

[@devilkazumi578]

​@@prd6617minimalist is hella boring tbh haha

[@Thesupremeone34]

Kjera is also the highest auto-attack of all drone casters because she has that 19% dmg up from her talent. (Yes, higher than GG auto attacks, actually it's on the high end of casters in general). The statement that click does more is untrue and based on reading their base stats without accounting for the talent boost Kjera has. Her S2 does just over 1800 dmg (compare: ggs3 1900ish dmg) If you give her *any* attack speed buff she will get two hits in her chill time giving a fairly reliable 71% freeze chance on chilled enemies, which gives her an additional 10% dmg on top of her skill dmg. Kjera's main issue is her S2 has 33% uptime compared to 50% of ggs3 and that chill is a shitty utility compared to the slow, stun, and global range that other drone casters offer. Chill just slows enemy aspd and then you hope you get lucky and get a freeze for a real cc effect. And unlike minimalist Kjera has drone tracking on-skill which gives her access to the multiple hit dmg stacking of drone casters that minimalist really doesn't have but every other drone casters does have.

[@jezreeldionesio355]

honorable mentions are arguable means they can be anywhere top 20 worst. You need at least one more operator to ice enemies for her to be actually good, so as solo, Click is even better... yeah Skyfire should be in top 10 because she's one of the most useless 5*

I built Frostleaf and Earthspirit really early into my account, and I remember being really annoyed about people saying they were bad. I was really big in the mindset of “No bad Operators, only bad Doctors.” But…yeah, they’re kind of terrible. Arguably, Earthspirit at least has a few niche use cases, but that delves into copium arguments; Frostleaf kinda just sucks, though. She really would have benefitted from being released after the introduction of Cold and Freeze as statuses we can use - maybe she would have been built differently with those as available options. I don’t regret building either of them, though. They got me through the early game, and Frostleaf’s E2 art alone made her worth it, in my mind. I actually built Quartz, too - she’s absolutely awful, but I love her E2 art and her voicelines, so I call it worthwhile. Though, I end up building every 4-star whenever they get a Paradox Simulation, so it probably would have happened eventually anyway.

[@looneyflight]

I'm new within the past few months to this game. I can't tell you how many times I've been excited to get a new character and then go to read online about how much they suck or at best they are niche.

[@AzaelBC]

I always assumed the argument for "Use them with other operators", like Skadi in Abyssal Hunters was good since it's a team/strategy game and stuff, until compared to a baby craddled in someone's arms, Gladiia takes her arms off and Skadi comes crashing down head first into concrete

[@SUPAH_SUPAH_SUPAH]

Yes. And part of that team/strategy is being able to use squad slots efficiently

[@Sceptera]

Poor FrostLeaf I am hoping her Module will help her. Since Pramanix got cold on her attacks from the module, Frostleaf could potential get cold on her attacks. That cold slow would stack with her % slow and S2 would freeze enemies repeatedly solidifying her ground tile Crowd Control niche. l Finally because of her Trust (+defense- really sucks but...) she is the only 4 star non defender that can tank an Aak to the face. Frostleaf was my favorite 4 star when starting out cause of how she was in the story and her backstory. Surprised to not see Flamebringer anywhere on this list or on the honorable mentions.

[@tyaty]

Flamebringer (1 block landholder kit ), Tomimi (melee range Caster), Sideroca/Grrani( overly defensive kit fir her branch ), Ceylon ( Barely can to what her ranch supposed to do ), Kirara ( Ambusher wo can't CC) and the other underwhelming 4/5*-s

Carnelian is genuinely useful in SSS funnily enough. A caster stack for building up Eyja/Passenger who also can stall or area clear on the way out, alternatively if you fuck up a GG Sniper stack Carnelian can basically recycle that spot since she scales well with attack speed too but also needs SP charge stacks. The bind is slightly useful too compared to taking Mint or Beeswax instead since SSS mobs just kill the Obelisk or are just too heavy to get shiftcucked. Though even in SSS she just ends up being a slightly cheaper Passenger most of the time.

[@Khroniclas]

This list is very interesting. I couldn't watch the video instantly, but when I saw the thumbnail and title a few days ago I already started thinking who I would put on this list. My first thought was that 3* and below are blacklisted, because it would be low hanging fruit. Though some of the robots actually have a more viable niche than some operators on this list. The first operators that came to mind were Jackie, Scavenger, Beehunter, Earth spirit, Quartz, Chestnut, Frostleaf and of course Tsukinogi. I also thought about Conviction, which has some potential but honestly it is super RNG and you probably need a buff army which is kinda copium. In theory Vigil has insane potential (peak ST DPS is mixed 4,8k), and honestly he won't be near the top 10 worst operators in practice just like Carnelian, but I still thought about putting Vigil on the list purely because his kit feels clunky. Getting this man to have peak ST DPS is the main challenge of using him. Still love my boy, but god this man needs a good module to boost the wolves. Speaking of Carnelian, I still don't think it is deserved to put her on this list, but I agree with all your points on her and found it to be a very interesting pick for #10. Spuria... Actually I kinda liked Spuria, way worse buff than Aak, only for snipers. Many people already hate her for this. I loved it though, because her damn skill doesn't murder my operators which is the exact thing that turned Aak, the best dps buff of the game in 99% of situations, to one of my least favourite operators. The problem? I thought the selfstun only applied to herself, after watching this video I hate her more than Aak, at least that furry bastard has something going for him. Another obvious choice would be ninecoloured deer, I was also thinking about Sesa or Executor, but I don't use them enough to decide which one is worse. So my list would (in no order) be: - Jackie - Beehunter - Frostleaf - Chestnut - Tsukinogi - Ninecoloured deer - Scavenger - Earth spirit - Quartz I would probably put Vigil in the (dis)honourable mentions, despite me being the only person defending him since his release on CN. Oof. Other dishonourable mentions would be Executor and Sesa.

[@cerizz4771]

i did not expect Quartz to be something bad, except for the defence. i noticed that issue for her to be healed properly because of the 0 defence but high hp pool, but i managed to make her work pretty fine and she even did better than my Matoimaru by blocking two ennemies and stunning the bigger ones. but really dps sucks? if she sucks my whole team does then xd

[@alphaneris]

there are some operators that i think that are genuinely good at specific strats like "casterknights", where carnelian and nightmare are good, or defenderknights where hung is actually good too, but other than that, its difficult to justify their usage outside ultra specific circumstances like class bans in challenges or CCs

What I can ONLY IMAGINE they had in mind for the optimal use of the Crusher archetype is to put them in one of those spaces off to the side not directly in the line of enemies and right in front of a defender. That way they attack the enemies blocked by the defender and aren’t in the line of fire themselves. But like….you can also just use Melantha or ANY OTHER duelist guard. EVEN SKADI and get a similar DPS. They aren’t somehow SO STRONG that using them like that is some big upgrade over duelist guards.

As a new player and only talking early game, I don’t think Frostleaf is bad. She’s very easy to use and adds more dps to a blender.

Especially when your limited on range units spots.

Very expensive but still one of my favorite characters. Defensive charge and forced Aak synergy is what stops him from being good.
