Red is only bad now because he can't be level broken. If compared to only level 50 support chars he's pretty solid stat wise especially since he can use daggers now (better stats than Wakka or Fran who are your other two main support choices). Being able to use 4* black can also be useful when you need to throw death or break on someone but you still need your black mages slots. And of course he's an absolutely great char if you have his diamond pin. At 65 I expect he'd be serious competiton for Wakka in the support slot, if you have a good dagger or one of his relics.
