I know people hated how they added so many Janeways in succession one year, but I still think we need two more:
Year of Hell Janeway
Endgame Admiral Janeway
Yeah, well, it seems like those who hated it have been very efficient at convincing DB to never have a Janeway event ever again
Amazingly, as of the upcoming event this week, Janeway's only inclusion in any 2018 event has been 2* Kathryn Janeway being the threshold reward in "The Captain's Oath 2". And, of course, being a Starfleet Captain, her personae all got a minor event bonus. I'm among those who have bemoaned the frequency of Janeway in previous events, but that was based on two things. First, the concentration of them in 2017: She was in six of that year's 52 events, including all four of its Mega-Events, and two of her events were in consecutive weeks.
03-09-2017 Alpha and Omega
05-25-2017 The Process of Assimilation 4: Resistance
07-27-2017 A Good Day to Lie 4: Blood for Blood
08-03-2017 They Came from the Holodeck! 3
10-05-2017 Discovery: A New Anomaly 1: Streak of Stardust
12-28-2017 Smoke & Mirrors 4: Operation: Earth
The other element that irked me was that throughout that time, there were still several main cast characters who had yet to be included in any events at all. Three of them still hadn't been chosen for any events until after all six of Janeway's 2017 appearances: Scotty (2/2/18), Kes (5/17/18), and Archer (5/22/18). Poor Archer was even included in the in-game conversation portion of "Streak of Stardust", in the Captain Archer artwork for the card that still has not been added to the game, and that all felt like trolling.
But now that everyone has been in at least one event, I'm fine with Janeway returning to active event duty. She has a lot of fans, and they should get the fun and excitement of getting to use her! (I would just like to ask that someone remind DB that Jadzia isn't the only Dax and that Ezri has only had one persona added since launch, and that was back in October, 2016.)
Updated to include today's 5* Replicant Boothby from VOY, which breaks that series' tie with Disco and ENT. Also revised the Crew by Rarity chart to be color coordinated!
Also, I'm not going to add it to the OP since it's a bit long to scroll past with three charts already, but in case you're curious what it looks like if we combine all ten movies into a single category:
All data is updated and finalized as of today's release of 5* Juliana Tainer and the announced crew for this week's event. DS9 had the most new crew, with 45. TNG was second with 36, but also had another 9 from movies. If those are combined, then today's Juliana Tainer ties TNG with DS9.
Perhaps they should stop calling the different stars common, uncommon, rare and super rare. It seems that the Super rares (4*s) and Rares (3*s) are more common than the commons (1*s)?

Oh, certainly. I was speaking about her being shut out of events this year.
