Hayate is the most well rounded. He's a good at all, but a master of none. I definitely would say him.
The only thing i really don't like about him is his combo throw.

Which one? The Raijin? Both?
Does it really need said?
Thanks for your help Prince Adon. I really appreciate it.I'm still learning her, but I'm more than willing to help!
I would say Hayate. Hayate is a character that wins just using the basics. So I would stick with him as far as learning the basics goes.
OK, now that everyone has agreed on Hayate. Could anyone give me literally like a few pointers on how to use Hayate well? Like how to play? What are his safe moves? Combos etc.

The key to using Hayate well is being able to multitask and perform well at all ranges of combat. He is best played at mid range where he can create more space if he needs to and keep people off him with moves like his mixups, , , as well as or approach his opponent aggressively with things like mixups, and . His wind dash () can also be used to approach but you have to make sure your opponent respects the amount of space you control. If you just put it out whenever you feel like it you will end up getting hit out of it alot. The same is to be said for his .
When you get in close range you will basically want to mix up your strings (free cancel or delay), poking (use your mostly if you feel the need to complete a string; especially at walls.) and with your charged guard breaks and throws. You may want to teleport occasionally instead of doing a guard break to fake people out.
Some good safe moves Hayate has are:
- This is semi safe so you have to be prepared to break neutral throws or fuzzy guard other throw attempts.
As for combos for a beginner I recommend:
OR
He has more damaging ones than these but for now use this. Once you understand how the stun system and threshold works I'll introduce you to those.
I'm able to do those combos but... I wanna know how you would use the ranges? And can Hayate space/zone? If so how? P.S I read the Ein guide and I really enjoyed it.
I may be hosting an Xboxlive lobby on Saturday in the afternoon-evening by the way. Probably going to have it start around 5pm PST. And it'll be streamed, this time, I will be using a mic and hosting a party chat as well. So feel free to socialize and if anyone has questions or are in need of advice as we play, feel free to ask me.
I may then use Tournament Mode as well, so everyone can play instead of waiting. But most importantly, everyone can test themselves versus one another as a way to see how everyone is progressing. To see if players are learning.
how long will the lobby be up? ill come joinI as said before, I'll be hosting a lobby and stream at 5pm PST, so in about 20 minutes. If anyone wants to play today, send me a message on Xboxlive or reply here.
