Ideally, you should discard anything below L5 (or in some cases lower rarity 5-star girls) in any champion draft regardless of levels. Your number of re-rolls for champion drafts grows proportionally with your harem (you get one more draft re-roll every 10 eligible girls added to your harem). Eligible girls are your harem size minus your total number of 1-star girls (the filler commons from Dark Lord and/or GP). So in my case for instance, I have 1480 girls in total now, including all of the 106 1-star girls, so as far as champions are concerned I have 1374 girls to pick from in any draft. Having experienced this from all the way back when I barely had enough girls to fill the 10 slots (and like 1 or 2 re-rolls) to these days where I have 1374 eligible girls and I think 137 (free) re-rolls per draft, the concern you express was never a thing. Right now, I have 24 maxed-out Mythics, 91 maxed-out L5s, along with both of the 2 E5s and 8 of the R5s maxed out as well that I can potentially fall back on. That's 125 girls, of which only about a third is relevant for any given draft, due to the old-school 3-class system champions still go by. Actually it's often even less than that because the random selection of 5 poses to match for a champion run don't always neatly include all 4 poses that exist for that champion's class. So realistically, on average there are maybe 1/4 of my 125 top girls, so about 31 picks I'm aiming for to fill up those 5 slots the best I can in a given draft. Out of 1374 girls eligible for random selection. That's not a whole lot on paper, but with a proper drafting strategy I hardly ever need to use up more than about half of my 130+ re-rolls to land on a team of 5 (or possibly 6-7 if that's relevant, which it generally isn't). It's hard to go more in-depth without knowing your own current numbers and this would go far beyond this event thread's topic (we could move this to its own Q&A thread and discuss strategies for champion drafts as much as you'd like if this helps, though). But no matter what it is, I'm very confident in telling you that you should be able to make a decent draft every single time regardless of how many girls you add to your harem that you will never want to pick in a champion draft. Bottom line, if that's a legit concern for you, it really shouldn't. We can review this together in more details for your own situation if you want. But adding fodder to your total number of girls doesn't reduce your odds of making a decent champion draft, ever. And you should always unlock and claim every girl you can regardless. It's a core pillar of progress in this game. It's not just about reaching the minimum of 100 girls of each of the 8 colors to max out your passive elemental bonuses, or slightly increasing your harem income in Ymens or even the tiny HP boost you get from your total harem levels. Collecting an extra girl or 10 or 100 will never hurt your harem even if you leave them at 0 stars and level 1 forever (more realistically level 250 over time, since that's the real base line in the long run for filler girls, because you don't need any gems for that and there are many tasks and contests that reward you for leveling up girls, and those first 250 levels are dirt cheap in terms of books). Hope this helps.
