Riskiest kharacter?

I must be completely misunderstanding kung lao if he's unsafe. It feels like the opposite to me. Guy has neverending pressure that I can barely poke out of between his strings. I really should study his frame data.

Falls down too much
I can't even pretend I know someone on the roster riskier than Mileena. It's funny how that doesn't equate with "Bottom 5".

I want Kronika to step on my face
Which kharacter playstyle do you think takes the biggest risks? Either they're dead from the start or they secure a win as fast as possible if everything works out? Someone who fights with reckless abandonment and has a bit of a "death wish".
Bone Shaper Shinnok.

But he doesn't really kill the opponent quickly if everything works out because he doesn't have damage.

Chances are he just dies quickly.

Also he's literally the one character who wishes death to all.

Waiting to see a video tutorial because way I'm seeing atm, she's pretty much mid tier in Pyro. Draginata is a gimmick, you can njp it for free. Kobu is rushdown with negative frames so, lol.
I'm not saying I know best. I'm saying, I'm stuck with her atm.
Pretty sure she's a top tier character, although against teleport characters I've heard this variation is the weakest.

Tanya in general is one of the safest characters in the game. Plenty of strings that are 0 or plus on block. I can't think of any that are unsafe. - 4 is really safe for a special. You can always teleport away after a string to be extra safe. Has TP cancel for additional mindgames. Doesn't have to rushdown because of her awesome zoning. Pretty good pokes and normals. She has a lot of tools and mixup to boot.

I think she is a top 10 character and is a great pickup for countering characters like Grandmaster 0.

As for my Riskiest Character:
- Seems like Quan Chi (summoner) is pretty risky. I feel like I either get the first knockdown and body him, or get trapped in his vortex/ can't get in on his zoning and it's GG. But, I guess he has good comeback factor if he can ever escape my knockdown pressure
