Character Tools Listing: Strengths and weaknesses

[GLoRToR]

I'll be updating the first post.
The point of this thread is to offer a complete overview of the entire cast's strengths and weaknesses, eventually offering a complete understanding of which character has what upper hand over one another and how to get around it. For example. Christie seems to me like a rushdown character with an incredible attack rate and mixup capability but her holds and grapples seem rather limited at first glance. Bass on the other hand seems to have extraordinary upclose hold game and appears to be able to bend the opponent eight ways with one good read on a hold.

Please debate individual characters in their own forums and post solid info here for me to add to the first post. This will be my first project in DoA5 if the community agrees to this.

Ayane obviously excels in spacing and whiff punishment, is relatively safe compared to some characters, and has plenty of options from BT. Also, for the time being, her 66KK4 is arguably her most intimidating tool. She seems to have more trouble with relentless chars who stay in her face. That's what I've seen from a little more than a week of play.

Helena lacks damage and safety but.. she.. hmmm..

Anyway, I'm curious to see how you guys describe Eliot.

Locking this thread.

This is what the tier list discussion is for. You also have the doa5 character sub-forums and that's what those are for. Look into those for this information.
