If Jacky plays similiar like in VF5, then he is pretty much the best Character:
Keep in Mind, Sarah is ok In VF5, but nothing special, Jacky is Top 3 in VF, he doesn’t have + Frames on block like Sarah, but his other stuff is much much better:
Purely speculating, valid only if they don’t change him much from VF5 to DoA5:
-Jacky is the Sidestepkiller, Full circular High/Mid/Low, best and fastest Highcrushing Low Sweep
-Jacky has pretty much the best Strings, highly delayable, High/Mid/Low etc.
-Jacky is the King of true combos, most of his Launchers do require Counter hits, but they are safe on block. Half of your Life bar is easily gone in 1 Combo, better not whiff Holds vs. Jacky.
-Jacky can cancel many of his moves in SS or SSS, Slideshuffle and SideSideshuffle, so he is pretty much highly unpredictable.
So, safe Launchers, High Damage, unpredictable because of his ability to simply SS into Launcher/whatever, Jacky has all the stuff other characters, especially DoA-Characters, don’t have.
Heck, I bet he can even be played much more risky, the Rest of the DoA-Cast is lacking launchers, risk/reward in Jackys Favor, his SomerSault or Smash Upper on counter Hit reaaaaly hurt.

I hope these can transition into Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate.

Well that K cancel was shown in the reveal video that you can use it to continue the juggle in the air like that video. I'm sure Jacky's 4K+G will work like Sarah does in this game, or like Pai's 46P+K. I'm curious if that K cancel will be easier like Akira's knee is easier.

Probably. I find all the moves like that easier in Dead or Alive 5 honestly. I went back last night and did Sarah's command training on Virtua Fighter and I found it to be a bit more demanding. Dead or Alive seems to be a bit more lenient.

Probably the only juggles to carry over will be the ones not involving wall or bound, unless they really do implement bound in 5U... Pai had some sweet looking combos in FS but like 99% of them didn't work in DOA5
His combos look great though, the moves look more Bruce Lee-like than Jann Lee's
And oh yeah the timing thing, no doubt easier. DOA's always been dial-a-combo lol

Indeed I used Pai in FS I still have a habit of doing PP4PK instead of PPKK. I can't use her for shit in DoA.
I've always thought Law was the best representation then Jacky.
This I'm excited about cause I know it will most likely happen. I just don't wanna say for sure it will happen since the game isn't out.
during the parry animation.

Oh it was that broadcast just today on gamespot. It was on twitch so it will most likely be archived later. So look later for Day 2 archives.

Now that I watched it again I don't see it either >.< Apparently it was me just really wanting it to be in the game.

I agree with that actually sabaki's is one example. I got into DoA late, so to my knowledge sabaki's are new and came in at DoA4. Giving it to someone else is an interesting idea. Like give it to someone like Eliot? Being the linear character he is having a auto parry could give him that necessary edge that other characters do not.
