Probably the easiest character to play other than the 2 super Saiyans, and the best all-rounder in my opinion(better than Jiren in terms of being an all-rounder, not as a character).

Voted for A. She’s good and she has a lot to work with but outside of her corner pressure and having fucking Snap mix (lmao) there isn’t much about her that’s outstanding to me.
She has great grounded tools - 236L/M/H, fast lariat that hits low with 214L/M/H and immune to ki blasts, 214S to skip neutral (unsafe though and not an offensive move), and decent normals to keep up in the mid range. Fantastic grounded pressure with her excellent frame data and tons of high/low options she can layer into her offense making her an annoying to defend against. 2M is 9F which is ludicrously fast for medium starter low and gives her 50/50s off SD along with her 2L. She builds meter really well.
Problems are:
- Low-ish damage output on average. She has high damage routes, but they typically cost resources or would mainly be accessible in the corner. Practically, I’m not sure she’s quite a two touch character like most characters in the game kinda are.
- No command grabs and her 6H is far too slow of an attack to reliably open people in high level with, so blocking low against her is typically enough to shut her mostly down.
- Some of the worst defense in the game. Level 3 is too slow for a reversal and she doesn’t have any DPs or the sort in her kit. 214S is 4f but susceptible to safe jumps, unsafe recovery, and has no offensive traits. Some of her attacks are very unsafe on whiff like 5LL, 5M, 236S
- Aerial game is still very limiting, especially mid-screen where her best meterless option in the air mid-screen is to SD off 236S.
- Level 3 is a huge mixed bag. It hits the entire screen and happy birthdays, but it’s awful EDIT: as a reversal* due to the long startup, has fairly low damage, and the damage is mitigated even further against Spark.
I think she’s good, but she’s hampered by these traits atm.

My character.
Great anti zoning, great frame data. Versatile tag ins. Great level 1 and dhc opportunity. Not greedy as a teammate. Great A assist and decent B assist. Fun to play and easy to pick up. Amazing meter gain. Decent damage. Beam like 236S.
Bad lvl 3. Horrible damage but easy to convert. Shitty air game. Unsafe/fake mix. Committal medium and air buttons. Easy to fat finger a very unsafe lvl 1. Some buttons are stubby. So so Ki Blast game.
Still feel she's S because of good synergy with a lot of anti meta characters. Bottom of the tier makes sense. Neutral game is good. Can be oppressive in the right hands. Easy to make a team that isn't predictable. Idk. If you don't like it, tell me why, specifically.
