I think she's a well written character. Seems very much like a flowey from undertale, or someone who's less a normal "normal person" and more a "normal person" because of someone else, namely 25th (also she's annoying as all heck). Keep in mind the story around Rachel has been kind of shaky from the start. She went to meet 25th in a cave every so often, right? Well she wasn't always there. Where did she come from? She knows Arlen Grace and is doing something for her, which 25th was supposed to do,and is an irregular same as the Great warriors, top 4, and 25th Baam, yet because her fighting power is that of a "normal person" she's constantly overshadowed and forgotten about. You say she's lucky, but keep in mind fate and the future is a recurring theme in TOG, an it may be Rachel has some ability to alter it for her better, I think an alternate comic with Rachel as the Protagonist would be just as interesting, albeit fundamentally different. She's also a good antithesis to 25th, who has no long term goals and is kind naïve, and reckless. Rachel ticks none of those boxes, and overall does good. Sure, Rachel wouldn't be all to hated without 25th, but the majority of TOG wouldn't have played out the way it did.
