What characters do you guys see being played the most and which do you see the least?After the recent holidays, I have seen many, MANY nightcaps/snapdragons/acorns. 80's action hero, too. I used to rarely see kernel corn, but I've been seeing him a lot lately. There used to be so many scientists, but I don't really see them anymore. I've also seen an increase in engineers and roses from the support characters weekly mode. For some reason, foot soldier and peashooter have been VERY popular lately. Haven't seen many super brains ever since he was nerfed. I see pretty consistent amounts of electric slide and citron, seems like citron has also been less popular lately. cactus, cadet, and pirate are all wilds cards. Sometimes a server is full of them, or there's only one or two or none. And lastly, I've seen an increase in all star and imp, and a slight decrease in sunflower and chomper.These are just my opinions from what I've seen, so no solid facts here.

@34975634954957 I doubt it'd be that easy, in my experience such raw data is usually very ugly and needs a lot of TLC to make presentable, but I agree that it'd be cool to see.

It occurs that Popcap will have all this data easily available, all the characters ordered on number of times selected. I would love to see this list shared, would take them 10 mins to pull it up I reckon.

@ippig Sunflowers for certain. Understandable though, she improved a bit but is still absolutely zero fun to play in PvP 😭

@PineapplePianoMy list of most used characters:Edit: had some problems to insert the images.

@PineapplePiano I've mostly been seeing nightcaps, snapdragons, 80s, soldiers, roses, cacti, deadbeards, and peashooters, not many acorns, corns, cadets, citrons, sunflowers, scientists, or SBs. and if I forgot any characters they're also probably not that popular.I usually tend to play team vanquish on the PC EU servers if that helps.

Same for me minus the Super Brainz vacancy. Still seeing plenty of him.
I think it’s premature to speak on balance yet but wish healers would be rewarded more appropriately.

The only thing I really haven’t seen is StupidBrainz, Chompass and Scientists. Whole lot of 80’s stars not using primary. So I show them the taco.

@dwooten77 Ikr?! Giddy park yesterday was just full of 80's stars spamming rocket ride and can't missile.

@PineapplePiano It is a strange mix out there at the moment! I'm wondering if there are a lot of newly arrived players who've previously played GW/GW2, as it does mainly seem to be the new characters out there.
I think Foot Soldier is probably around a lot just because of the challenges - I'm seeing a lot of All-Stars & Roses as well.

@PineapplePianoI think it's pretty balanced. It's easier to tell which classes I don't see that much:

Scientists and Chompers.
Edit: Forgot the Sunflowers.
