Cursed gauntlet crew?

Have you ever run certain crew in the gauntlet and just felt that they're cursed. Like even when that specific crew member would reasonably beat the crew member you put it up against or even when your cursed crew member has a bonus, it just seems to lose more than it ever wins? I think many of us probably think this in the back of our minds for some of the crew we have.
Note: this thread isn't for conspiracy theories against DB, it's just for fun and commiserating about crew that just seem like ne'er-do-wells.
For me, I never seem to have luck with Minuet, Resistance Damar, or Gladiator McCoy.
They've won a few gauntlet rounds for me, but it always seems as if they lose way more often than they win, and that's even when they have 25-45% bonuses.
What are your cursed crew?

It’s because Guinan is all-powerful

TP: Do better!!!
Generally though, I don't use Mirror Picard. He's either up against Mirror Picard (and loses) or he doesn't get used. Stats are good but totally pointless running him.

Admiral Riker on the other hand can do no wrong.
Benny Hill should do well by the numbers, but never does.
My Gun Show Picard is almost always on my team, but he is very fickle. He has too wide a range to be predictable.
Amen. I loved my Doc Crusher, but Nurse what's-her-name makes her no longer useful. I use the nurse half the time and Phlox the other half.
Chancellor Gowron looks like he should be amazing, but he never delivers for me.
Mine sure isn't - I've had her lose matches in her 65% crit gauntlet because she didn't even crit once. Every time I use her she loses, so I don't bother anymore. I'm pretty sure she knows I don't like her and she's being spiteful. Definitely cursed for me.
I have never won against Resistance Damar!
Have good luck with Gladiator McCoy and Minuet!
It is RNGesus!
Very often 1% difference!
Thanks
And Blade La Forge is opponent I now avoid after some defeats which makes one tear the hair out.
That's not the topic of how I meant cursed crew. Cursed crew are crew you have which do terrible in gauntlet despite having the range or bonuses to do well, yet they never seem to.
For you Mirror Picard isn't so much a curse as he is a bane.

Actually, my Chancellor Gowron seems a bit cursed. He loses a lot of "sure wins".
Mine tends to fare pretty well compared to yours then.

(Yes, I'm aware he's not a Gauntlet power house today, but at the time he was still worth bringing, and I based my dismay off the calculated chances of success from the Gauntlet tool app whose name I've forgotten.)
These days, I still take Surak, but largely as a defensive measure since mine so consistently loses.
She keeps this up, and I might just push her off a boat.
1. Voyage.

3. Only pursue characters I care about.
4. Contribute to the fleet.

6. Have fun.
7. Voyage.
8. Have fun!
I have had streaks like this where I will lose (by a large margin) 5 highly favourable battles in a row to wipe out my crew but never paid attention to time of day. So in my case, the whole crew needs the airlock because they obviously don't like my leadership style. 🤗
Who is teabag Janeway?

As for the opposite, I've had so many lucky wins with Valeris, she is just too awesome.
