=== Turn Based Strategy ===
* ''[[Advance Wars]]'' has Andy, which has no effect on his troops, be it positive or negative, as well as a repair power that is useful for all units.
** ''Dual Strike'' adds Jake, a better contender for the title. Jake has no weakness, but a usable general strength of extra damage on plains (the most common type of terrain) and, more importantly, a CO power that's combines a lesser version of Max's direct fire focus and a lesser version of Grit's indirect fire focus without getting either of their crippling weaknesses. In practice however, competitive players consider Jake an indirect specialist, just a less focused one, since having ''any'' boost to indirect unit range is rare.
** In the reboot ''Days of Ruin'', the closest is possibly Carter/Forsythe, who has no CO power and a universally useful (and friggin' huge) CO aura, or Isabella/Catleia, who also has a universal (and pretty fair-sized) CO aura and a universally useful CO power (+2 movement to all direct combat units, +2 range to all indirects).
* Eliwood from ''[[Fire Emblem]]: Rekka no Ken'' has more evenly balanced growths than Hector or Lyn with the exception of slightly higher luck growth.
** Across the series, the cavalier and mercenary classes are fairly like this, and several of the former are often given to the player fairly early in the story. (It's upgrade is also the traditional class of [[Crutch Character|"Jeigans."]])
