I already saw people tested him.

His NP Gain is standard, usual leap by one crits Arts card. Not having any case of lower NP Gain that need to be 'unlocked' by critical damage like EMIYA Alter or Moriarty. So yeah, he pretty much good by current FGO standard.

However, here I agree with opinion wrote on that Reddit link.

While his kit easily see better use than Gil, its also fact that AOE Buster competition in Archer class is harsh; worse than Rider actually as no one bad on Archer class.

Arjuna seems powercreeped, but he's still the better NP spammer among AOE Buster Archer, that's already including Napoleon. Tesla sporting better survivability and vast damage boost as good as him, maybe better, which make Napoleon somewhat weaker pick compare to him.

Ishtar have no issue competing with him on damage, survivability, and sure hit despite his invul. pierce and invul. locked behind RNG.

Gil kit may not as cool as him but the fact he can supply his own star, still the best when it comes to taking advantages of Independent Action also Servant Killer which is more certain target than Divine-only, still put Gil as top of AOE Archer.

So while Napoleon bring brand-new skills that looks-like-he-powercreeped-old-ones, its not like all previous AOE Buster Archer suddenly replaced by him, as all previous AOE Buster Archer already have what they excels at and they are no slacker on what they capable of.

The competition worsened when EMIYA included as UBW and AAAQB deck can be argued seeing more use than concentrated firepower of him, without need of being SSR.
