Young Justice is Tim's team but he is hardly relevant in Young Justice series (like when I saw Young Justice fanfics, Jason and Damian who only appeared once are more prominent in those fanfics than Tim).
However, I don't agree with your comparison with Damian's case. We can't say New52 Teen Titans as "bad book" in the same category as Glass's Teen Titans "bad book". New52 Teen Titans became a bad book because of shitty writing, Glass's Teen Titans became a bad book because the creator intended to be. New52 Teen Titans, as shitty as it is, still painted Tim as a heroic character, even he became one of Teen Titans' founders, something that should be Dick's credit. Lobdell didn't write Tim as a maniac resembled Ra's Al Ghul, put a bomb vest to fake suicide, and be cornered by everyone in the book as the sole problem. If New52 Teen Titans book is bad because of Lobdell's lack of writing ability, Glass's Teen Titans book is a gross book with nasty intention to absolutely butcher Damian's character. Change him to be Magneto for Jon's Professor X of all things.
And sadly, this isn't the first time Damian was written with nasty intention. If Tim didn't yet find a book that grant him development before Urban Legend, Damian's development was constantly reduced for the sake of other's development. You mentioned Injustice, but in Injustice Damian was sacrificed for the sake of Bruce's angst, and now with the upcoming Injustice movie, we Damian stan dread the day when we have to, again, repeatedly tell to people that no, Damian is not Dick's killer, it was a fucking incident and Damian/Dick relationship in canon universe is actually so good. Injustice 2 gave him better development but hardly common people remember it and certainly it wasn't included in game version. And Batman Beyond, where Tim once replaced Terry to be Batman Beyond, Damian is the new Ra's Al Ghul. A decent one, but not a development that was wanted by Damian stan who rooted him to be a hero, and on Damian's Batman Beyond first arc he became an enemy to Terry. DCeased is indeed well-liked by fans, although I dislike that book because Damian didn't sound Damian at all and most times his role is to hug people or morally support Jon. Not to mention Damian's divisive role in other character's mini-story like in Duke's book he became the one who doubt Duke's heroism (after acknowledging him on Robin war, really), in Tynion's Batman he got thrown down by Cass just because he didn't want anyone violate his privacy room (and fandom cheered for that), and whatever he became on Titans of Tomorrow (which is greatly different from Batman666 Damian).
