His history as a trash Servant is based prior to his buffs, like he is in NA. Until he gets his updated skills, he is trash tier, can't stargen well even with his skill, has below average NP gen despite his Arts deck, has an unchainable NP as his deck won't support it and can't buff it. He was the definition of an unuseable Servant.

Even Post-Strengthening his mileage varies, as he is still hurt by an inability to properly chain his NP. Projection helps out considerably, but no matter what you are losing out 50% modifier on the Extra Hit as he just can't properly chain UBW. He also lacks starweight, so even though he can generate pretty well and hit like a monster truck if he gets stars, he still needs a C.E to guarentee his pull.

If in the future they ever fixed his deck and made him BBAAQ instead of BAAAQ, he'd instantly jump to top tier, but until then his lacklustre deck hurts him enough that he is only mid-tier (especially since we have Chloe, who while losing out in terms of Crit Damage, just has a much better deck and a free NP5)
