Why is Odin so underused?

Just because herc and cgr exist?
I was really excited when odin came out and got him as a 6star but dropped him since my old phone couldnt handle his sp1 animations
but with a new phone and after having done a solo on EOP overseer I am so impressed with Odin.
Almost 100% up time on his true strike and being able to pause buffs just by staying close to the enemy and his sp2 damage is nothing to cough at with energize buffs from heavies to reach sp2 quickly. he really has so much to help him.

People don't understand fully the impact of when someone comes out then changed after how that normally works. The first thing reaches more people while the change reaches less. Alot of players alreday wrote him off as bad.
Spiderman 2099 and Captain Sam also suffered that fate. They came out, people said they were bad and to this day players still think that way about champs like that.
He was also amazing vs Overseer in EOP so I'll probably bring him in during the boss rush again, especially since I've ranked him up further now than I had him at the time. I'm really, really enjoying him.
For me, I don't use him much because his lack of immunities and he's also still unduped (although 6* R3 anyway). Seems like those are required in so much content now. So he does end up being more a support entity than a lane clearer.
And if you're a suicide user (I go back and forth, but have not had them on for AW and usually prefer to have access to all champs anyway), he's pretty much a no-go too.
Great champ, but think he should at least have shock resistance (OG Thor should too).
War Machine, Magneto House of X, and Mister Fantastic are all seen more for what they give other champions.
If you play that game long enough, you’ll gradually aware that “underrated” “overrated” are relative words. There is no underrated champ but there is underrated player behind the control. Therefore you saw players complaining how worse civil worrier was but on the hand you saw MSD use him to one-shot Grandmaster.
There are also a group of Odin’s players and his appearance in YouTube content is not small. I have 3/4/5/6 versions and use him a lot. I learnt the mechanics from other players in this forum and treasure his abilities.
My 5/65 does more damage than my r3 here In ROL without suicide
