[2021] Why do people choose a weak but fun character instead of the OP character?

Personally, I think it's more about fun factor. I play Amaru a lot and while she's not exactly a "meta" op, she's fun and it's nice to play someone who's not one of the top ops like Zofia or something.

That would explain why people play Jager so much, after taking him for a spin I see why people love playing him.

I feel like Jager hits that happy medium between being useful and fun to play. There are quite a few ops that sit in that same boat as well like Alibi, Monty, etc.
