I find it pretty sad that this topic and another 'why do you dislike Carl' topic are the two threads with the most posts in Carl's entire subforum. And lol, for the first couple of pages it was pretty interesting to see, like 'Yeah really, why?......' Now, it's like 'yeah, ah-hah.. yeeeah.. we get it'. XD It kinda.. grates on my nerves seeing it get bumped now. :/ Not that that'll change anything.

Buuut anyway.. I know someday a new BB character is going to debut that ends up being the fandom's new scapegoat. *crosses fingers* Here's hopin..

@Ragged: To be fair, most people who posted in this thread actually like him, or at least don't hate him. IMO, Carl's more of the "Love it or Hate it" character than a true scapegoat for the entire BB fandom, and I'm more of the former mindset, as you can probably tell.

dont worry...

personally i think hes a troll trying to have a go at some one...

Yeah, I have noticed that, guess it's a blessing but a curse at the same time. I like that most people who like Carl like him a lot, but I don't like how many people don't even give him a chance either. But you're right, lol



Only if they troll Sis first.. lol.

You'd have to like him in order to have the patience to learn him, as opposed to, say, Ragna's easy 4k damage combos off of 5B.

Yeah that's very true, lol. And I have no complaints about that, in fact it keeps things interesting, but I guess it's only natural that the player ratio of the characters would reflect how they view the characters themselves out of gameplay.

I don't think characters like Carl and Rachel are underused necissarily because of what people think of them as characters. For one, I know a number of people who find Rachel to be their favorite character story-wise, but have a hard time with her gameplay, and I met a Hakumen player who considers Carl's story to be the most interesting, but can't use him.

On the other hand, most people who main Tager use him because of how big his damage is, rather than storyline reasons, other than memes and such.

Oh yeah definitely. I was actually referring to the opposite situation (Carl being underused because of his gameplay difficulties and that helps keep some people from ever warming up to his character). But it's interesting to hear particular situations of the former. And yes, that is so so true about the Rachel bit. Rachel is a very likable character but it seems that Rachel players are pretty rare, especially now. So I see what you mean completely.
