When you look at him he has almost everything you could want in a character but still almost no one plays him or at least I never see any.

In base:

\\-A combo starter that grabs ragdoll

\\-A move that hits even after it gets interrupted

\\-Same move deflects projectiles, parries and reduces your cooldowns

\\-A move with a built in get out of jail free card(second wind)

\\-5 moves in total(I count rika as 1 move)

\\-Vey easy and reliable 70 dmg combos while most characters barely get 60

In Awk:

\\-A move with decent range, bypassing block and also copies

\\-A move that stuns in a large radius and in publics can be used up to 8 times in a row

\\-A big aoe move that has a variant that can combo start

\\-A one shot beam move

\\-90 dmg combos while most awakening rely on spamming said moves

\\-A domain that can take your awk bar away that also can be used to farm awk again in public servers

\\-8 moves

\\-2 ways to domain confirm(maybe even 3 I don't remember if Awk 3rd move confirms)

\\-Copy(this itself makes Yuta worth playing imo)

\-Also one of the cooler Awk animations imo

Final notes:

I know his domain isn't the best but still all it takes is one mistake and you're most likely dead.

Copy was nerfed(wing king and HP were removed) but the base move is really good even without copying anyone.

Domain Awk farming was patched last update but its still recent enough so it doesn't explain why no one uses him.

So my question at the start still stands, Why is there almost no Yutas?

Why does almost anyone sleep on Yuta?
