Just as the title reads. In some cases, a character portrayed on a card (say, Luke on Supernatural Reflexes) is one who wants that card equipped very much. In others (such as Vader on Heightened Perception) would be wasting squad points and force points in investing in them. Which cards are atrocious on the portrayed pilots? Mediocre? Actually decent/auto-include?
Card Art and The Effectiveness of Equipping it to the Pilots Portrayed
Every time I go to look for my Redline pilot and proton torp cards I end up finding X-wings and cluster missiles.
Agile gunner on a phantom: Utterly useless
Juke art makes me miss ye ole comm relay Omega leader
Now, "Midnight" can't even use juke with her ability!!!
I think it is weird that Kad Solus has the art with a torpedo of some description on it, but Joy Rekkoff is the Fang Fighter that actually has an ability directly linked to carrying them.
Proton Torpedoes are pretty good on X-wings.
That being said, Outmaneuver is a card that is very Win-More, (it only helps you in games you were going to win already) on a TIE Defender.
It's also terrible against the Millennium Falcon.

Still a good option if points allow it. Is the defender tokenless? Do you have an evade? No incoming modified shots? Pop that lock to mod dice and ditch that natty evade! Sure, fanatical is the default talent, but juke offers the higher skill ceiling if you know how to turn it on and off effectively with a nearby coordinate. There is a reason why Marcel of Gold Squad equips it to great effectivity.

Not sure if this counts but pretty much all of the Spectre crew are terrible on any version of the VCX Or maybe it's just that the VCX is terrible? Haha.
On that note, Ion Cannon is always the better choice on the VCX over Dorsal Turret despite what the card image tries to tell you.
Also hotshot gunner and veteran turret gunner can't go on the wookie gunship, #conspiracy?
