The February update confirmed what I already suspected: that awful leaked skill for Aster is just a reward for the replay of the GX Society of Light Chronicles, not an event for him. If they hadn't already made Master of Fusion so awesome now along with the little boost to Reinforcement, I would've been totally pissed about this. Still no Aster event because they needed to bring back boring Weevil to get that done already. The selection box was good, but I need more, damn it. Come on, Konami. You've been starting to do good for my boy lately, so don't let me down.
Who are these "most people", dude? Give me some kind of credible source outside your little bubble if you want me to believe you. If anything, his cards are at least popular.
That doesn't mean that a lot of people couldn't still care about him. Aster was one of the main characters released in duel links and wasn't made to be a gag like with Bastion and how he was shoved into the promo commercial. And Aster got his own structure deck really early. I don't think they would have done that if there wasn't some support behind him. Either way, his cards are still popular.
