Personally I say Ana Bray because I love watching Zavala get mad. And she's really skilled. I know it feels like replacing Cayde and they don't wanna but they gotta. they're receiving all this political flack from Lakshmi and FWC because they're in a place of weakness. So here's my list of hunter canidates...

I personally think the writing has set it up for Crow. Seems a lot of people aren't on board with this, which is fine, everyone is entitled to their opinions. Cayde-6 is loved by the community, and why should he not be, he's our deadpool. I personally never met the man, but i read his journal... The Vanguard Dare is a joke. No hunter wants the role. It is a dare, a prize with a bad reward. Cayde even mentions that he created the dare on a whim, on his own hubris. The set up for Uldren/crow to be the new hunter vanguard is brilliant because it forces him into the role. Does any hunter want the role? It is only fitting that the man who pointed this out essentially thought he was taking the role for life; saving hunter's from the politics, and forcing his killer into a fate worse then death. I know a lot of you despise Uldren, but from my days of watching WWE have tought be anything it is the worse villains that become the best bad guys. The about face from heel to hero is always a great trope. Not to mention that from a lore perspective; Crows fate as Hunter Vanguard is a suitable punishment for the murder of Cayde.
