User blog comment:SimpleorGidofter/Unpopular Units: Felneus/@comment-25876510-20150514051137

Still remember the times where we desperately tried to get Felneus. Then Dia came, and she was Felneus's first true contender as the Unlimited SBB unit. Then Uda came... then Zelnite, and then the duo of Elza and Faris. Following that, Claire and Diana come in.

...yep, Felneus is outclassed, but by no means, not useful. Ares' Excelsior is a valued Leader Skill, regardless of where it's used, being one of the best along with Spark Fills BB (Deemo, Rosetta, Raaga, Rubii). Felneus has simply lost the luster it had when it first arrived.
