Spare Vengeful Fighter, no room in the barracks...

Pulled a +Atk and -Res F!Robin from the banner (going to build this one up), and now I am stuck with 2 spares of him and a spare W!Tharja chilling in the barracks. While I am saving one fodder for the eventual H!Jakob return and maybe save W!Tharja for Close Counter, I still have (at least) one spare VF fodder, but no extra space to keep him because my barracks are full.

Which of the following do you think that I should give VF to (maybe two, or a CC and VF):

Black Knight [Neutral, Lv. 40, Alondite]
Arden [Neutral, Lv. 40+1, Brave Sword+ (no DC currently)]
VA!Eliwood [Neutral, Lv. 40, Casa Blanca+ (no DC)]
VA!Lyn [+Atk/-Spd, Lv. 40, Blarrowl+ (no CC currently)]
Effie [+Atk/-Spd, Lv. 40+3, Brave Lance+ (no DC)]
LA!Hector [Neutral, Lv. 40, Berserk Armads]
Amelia [+Def/-Res, Lv. 40, Slaying Axe+ (no DC)]

Extra: Thoughts on F!Robin x W!Tharja Ally Support? (For lore reasons.)

Arden already has Follow-Up Ring wich works on both phases, and he is more of a player phase unit with his Brave Sword+, so he doesn't really need it.

Black Knight and LA!Eliwood are interesting, but they generally prefer Bold Fighter with Quick Riposte for a more versatile set.

Effie is in a similar point, preferring Bold Figher on the offensive sets and Wary Fighter on the defensive sets. However, Vengeful Fighter has a featured set, so check it out if you are interested.

LA!Hector already has his Berserk Armands' built-in Wrath, and if possible, having a B skill Wrath is more lucrative on him, as it will stack for a devastating +2 cooldown per turn AND +20 damage, on top of the permanent cooldown reduction of Armands.

That leaves Amelia, which has some featured Vengeful Fighter sets, and is the best choice in my opinion, as he can really use the cooldown bonus and does not have to worry much about the enemy doublin her. If you want some tipse, take a look here:

And finally, there is the non-discussed option of merging it to your Robin. Usually, it's kind of a waste, as a single merge does not add really much compared to giving up such a valuable skill, but considering you already have three, it might be worth going for it.

I also wonder why don't you just take out a random 3-4* unit and just leave it there. You can never have enough fodder of 5* exclusive skills.

Thank you for your input.

I really like the idea of the Vengeful Fighter and Slaying Axe+ combo for Amelia, but I don't think she takes advantage of this effect fully because I lack extra DC to give to her. (There is no doubt that it's powerful on melee units, though.) I feel that the effects of VF are wasted if I don't give her DC, but if you have any extra insight to offer then I would gladly appreciate it.

As for the 3-4 Star, it's because I want to have at least one copy of every unit I pull (even stuff like Jakob) and I have a lot of units that I want to build up and promote to 5-Star (though not +10).

This would be a good time to consider upgrading your barracks, truthfully. It'd be worth the investment.
