I like to play bad characters
There really isn't much to elaborate on. Her zoning isn't on par with most of the cast, and as to options up close there's little to none. Allow me to ask you this; how many Hawkgirls do you see showing up to tournaments?
She has plenty of options up close and almost all of it is safe. Hawkgirls can rush down surprisingly well. Keep underestimating her please.

How many non-Supermans do you see show up at tournaments? A character's worth is NOT determined by how many rep it. Hawkgirl is being slept on right now, along with Bane. I predict people are gonna wake up fairly soon to how dirty these two characters can be.

I agree with all of this. Arguably one of the most underrated rushdown characters in the game. I would label her an "abstract" rushdown character.

I kept losing so I switched to Batco.
Well we all obviously are very much entitled to our opinions. I don't see anybody using her in such a way that would alter my current view on her.

Lobo is basically a better Shazam. He depends on command grab setups in much the same way, but has better mobility, better space control, better damage in realistic situations and stronger anti air. The only place Shazam one-ups him, or really one-ups anybody is wakeups. Every character in this poll or named in this thread has more dirt than Shazam, in some cases (Bane and Hawkgirl) by far.

imo Joker has potential, he just needs a little nudge in terms of buffs, nothing ridiculous to make him brain dead, but he definitely has potential. The same goes for Lobo.


However in terms of the worst i would say Lex, really predictable setups that are easy to escape, his dash is good but really baitable

Good Game :)
Other: Superman
-He needs buffs
-He needs to be able to dash out an air heat vision
-He needs to be able to fake a heat zap
-His trait should last longer
-His f2d13 should hit overhead after the d1
-Scoop on block should be +11
-f23 needs slightly longer range
-His d2 should simply be a special laser that Superman throws with his eyes in a diagonal motion. (Infinite range so that it reaches characters who fly)
...Please NRS he needs all this.

But seriously, It's more like "who is the most difficult to use effectively?" than "Who's the worst?"

Lex is really about armor rushdown. His setups aren't meant to be used raw and his trait can be really powerful when used correctly. Watch Rev0lver play on one of the stream archives he was in.
 
Im going to laugh when every single one of those characters wreck shit on everyone later down the road. Keep sleeping on them guys. Do you remember when kabal along with a few others where considered shit early and now they run shit? Keep in mind that the game won't be played the same when more stuff gets discovered as time goes by.
