Deep Rift - missing male survivors
Out of all of the 3 survivors that got deep rift recolors in this rift, they are all girls (Zarina, Mikaela & Nea). Yes, I think the skins look great, and are well designed.
However:
- there is not a single male survivor in the deep rift department. Jake (with his rift outfit) was a good candidate, especially since he's never got a deep rift outfit.
- Nea just got a deep rift recolor in the previous rift
I don't want to trash talk the skins. On the contrary, they look great in my opinion. But as someone who mostly plays male survivors, no deep rift skin for a male survivor sucks.

I've come across a Twitter post that expands on this, and shows how there's been a lack of varierty in characters in recent rifts. Very good points made, and worth checking out, in my opinion:
David, Élodie, Jonah and Vittorio have not been included at all in the last 5 rifts !!
Not to mention that David has not been in a rift ever since he was revealed to be gay. Thankfully, his long store cosmetics drought seems to have finally ended, but he's still nowhere to be seen in rifts. Our first official LGBTQIA2S+ character.
Rifts especially are chances for you to give less popular characters skins, since there are many cosmetics in the rift, and a few cosmetics for unpopular characters should not affect Rift pass sales that much.

It's just so tragic to see this.

Adam has a Deep Rift outfit and I think Felix also unless you mean recently then yeah you're correct.

Yeah it’s kinda unfair that 3 of the survivors in this rift were also in the previous one. And Mikaela also just got an event skin too.
Jake’s outfit would’ve been great as a deep rift. I don’t know why they didn’t go for that.
Also Yun-Jin being in 3 in a row while still receiving tons of shop skins is insane.
There’s a clear bias but unfortunately that’s just how it goes when these are clearly popular characters.

Yeah, I would love to see rifts as ways to help bridge the disparity between the frequency of cosmetics that the more popular survivors get, and those that the less popular survivors get. Store releases are one thing, and people usually use real money to buy them. And more popular characters will sell more. But at least the rifts soften that because there are multiple reasons to buy rift passes. Just having recolors of cosmetics for Haddie or Gabriel would be warmly welcomed.
