Am I the only one who things the Big Four are overrated?

I wrote a pretty long post some time ago about how I thought Jebediah (and by extension, now Valentina) is the most important Kerbal in KSP. TL;DR, Jeb and Val represent the player. Notice how Jeb/Val have built up a following; they have a personality in a game where their only defining feature is that they have bads=yes. Jeb and Val represent the player because as the rocket is launching, we aren't scared or worried, we are (hopefully) having a great time doing so. Landed on Mun? Super Big Smile. Burning through the atmosphere? Super Big Smile. Huge Explosion? Super Big Smile. Perfectly executed Hohman Transfer? Super Big Smile. Completely botched staging event? Super Big Smile.

Jebediah and Valentina are the closest one gets to having a player avatar. As such, I tend to play with them pretty often . The others... well I don't care that much for them .

Mind blown D:

The only one of the starter 4 kerbals I instantly kill or get rid of is Val, female kerbals look stupid and I'd rather not have to deal with there eyesore.

@Frank_G: wow those badges are super cool! I noticed you dont use val on your mission though

Thanks! Val currently trains in a low orbit space station for a Jool Grand 5 mission. She'll have her team assembled soon.
