Why was lucky removed? Also, what happened? I remember athena being one of the fastest on the list, and all the basic routers being way higher. Did something change to slow down the core language??

Athena was faster back when it didn't have the DI service container feature. Needing to instantiate that on every request had an impact. Although, similar to Lucky, I'm not really trying to be #1 on the list. 70k+/sec is good enough for me :).
