Ghostblade (DnF Duel)

Image
Ghostblade is a space control character that has incredible pressure after getting a single knockdown. Standing B has great range and has strong follow-ups, making it a strong poke and round start option. Spectral Eradication is an excellent space control tool thanks to its long range and damage potential on Counter Hit. Ghost Retracer is not fully invincible so use Guard Cancel to get out of pressure but it can be used to close in for a throw mixup. His Ghost specials allow him to keep pressure up while remaining safe from reversals or go in for mixups.

Fukua (Skullgirls)

Image
  Fukua is a versatile character that can snowball rounds with her mixups.   Jumping LP and HK are amazing air-to-air and air-to-ground buttons respectively.  Love Dart is a solid projectile, useful for stuffing approaches or closing distance depending on the version used.    HP Platonic Drillationship is her invincible reversal but is slow and unsafe.   Forever A Clone gives Fukua a deadly mixup game. Holding the button drains her life but allows her to store it for safe mixups when pressuring the opponent. Best Friends Forever turns grabs or Forever A Clone into full combos if cancelled into.

Elizabeth (BBTAG)

Image
    Elizabeth is a slow mid-range character with strong support capabilities.   Her Standing A, Standing B and Maziodyne cover the ground well, whereas her aerials cover air space well, though her aerials lack in air-to-ground capabilities.   Once on offense, she can mix the opponent up using her command grabs. Her B combo extends into a command grab and her command grab super you can combo into. Elizabeth can generate meter for the team with Mind Charge. She can use her assists or Cross Combo to cover a lot of space to allow her teammate to start an offense.

Devil Jin (Tekken 7)

Image
Devil Jin is an all-rounder that excels when he creates openings by backdashing or sidestepping. 1,1,2 is one of your best moves. Use 1,1 as a poke or punish and if it connects, finish the string with the 2. Use your knockdowns to either enforce a mixup between →→2 or → ☆ ↓↘4 or bait them into attacking and punish them. Many of Devil Jin's moves are avoided by low stances such as Xiaoyu's Phoenix or other evasive moves. b4 will connect against these. →→→3 can be used to pressure a defensive opponent or as an opponent is getting up.

Carmine (BBTAG)

Image
Carmine is a pressure character that covers the stage in puddles that cost his own health. His A autocombo is his go-to poke. It's fast, has good cancel options and the final hit heals you . His Standing B, Jumping B, and B specials control horizontal space well. Use them to create a chance to get in. Once on offense, use Spin! and Thrust! to make your opponent sit still to mix them up or force them to make a risky escape. His →P helps his partner create similar pressure when Carmine's not the active character.

Baiken (GGACR)

Image
Baiken is a space control character with strong pressure and control of the match even when blocking. Tatami Gaeshi is your strongest tool. Use it to cover a retreat, approach from the air and loop pressure on the ground. Kabari, your S and HS normals and Jumping D are all strong space control tools from midscreen. When guarding, your guard cancels can put you back on offense. Especially the D one, which leads to a button-sealing super. On offense, Suzuran lets her use her guard cancels in neutral or run through attacks to use her ↓K, ↓D or throw.

Akatsuki (ABK)

Image
    Akatsuki is a well rounded character with strong close range options and the most consistent super in the game. His B and ↓ B have good range and can combo into →C at close range or ↓ ↙←C at long range, making them strong pokes. His →C and ↓ ↙←C are unsafe if blocked though.   His ↓ ↓A is a fast, invincible reversal, whereas his ↓ ↓C is a strong anti-air.  His →B is an overhead that combos into ↓A if you can time it right.  Try to save meter for Akatsuki's super, his EX moves are only okay and his super is very strong.
