Before you start reading or commenting, do notice that this is only a post about units and abilities I think are rare to see in the current meta. You may complain about how UP these units are. But, for those who are going to comment, think deeply if there are any other possible reasons before you drain your complaint.
Also, do note that I rarely play OKW or UKF. So I will include a shortlist for these two factions. Feel free to add more. Besides, I mostly play 3v3 and 4v4, rank around 50 - 30.

T2: Mortar(probably the best of all non-doc mortars since it has flare, but still rare to see.)
T3: Su76, M5(yes, a lot are built but for AA purpose only). T3 conscript upgrade.
T4: Katy(?)(The least seen non-doc rocket artillery piece, and most people won't agree on this pick which I understand why.)
Commander units and abilities:
Conscript PPsh and PTRS upgrade.

Unit and abilities are very tied related to game mode and maps.
Some units abilities never seen in 1vs1 are quite popular in 4vs4 for instance, the thread without mentioning what game mode is referring to is rather vague.

Yeah, true. This is more like a list in the middle. I picked these units base on all game modes(except for a few).

Im not sure if Molotovs, Katyushas,or Assault Officers are all that rarely seen. Katyushas especially are quite popular, they're the quickest nondoc arty to actually land (some of) its rockets, especially from close range.
Relief infantry and Rapid conscription are barely abilities. They both need totally reworking, encouraging the loss of models is not good design... Especially for Ostheer, where for the loss of six Grens/Pioneers/Pgrens you get Ostruppen of all things.
USF offmap smokes are not seen because USF already have the best access to smoke in the game. They generally just don't need an offmap for it.

Yeah, Molotovs is a tricky one. I personally use it a lot. But it is still the least used Anti infantries nade.
Katy is definitely numerous but still the least seen non-doc rocket arti.
I could be wrong with the Assault Officers. I rarely play UKF. But I personally see very few of them being made.

This unit is just bad design IMO.

Molotov should seriously get looked at. Personally I see a lot of Katyushas. Assault Officer is fine, it's just not very popular because it's a close range unit while Tommies and Brens are for long range.

The B4 is absolutely TERRIBLE design. An RNG cannon that can wipe out a medium tank in one shot... or do absolutely nothing because of poor accuracy. Very fun. Very interactive.

That been clarified, i disagree with some choices in general (Katyusha for example) while in some other cases it's a matter of the unit/ability itself or how it only appears on a single commander which is not meta.
Some things should never be meta but a "fun" choice. Ex: Encirclement or B4.
