Easiest / Most Difficult Characters to Learn

[GAV]

Am I the only one who thinks 44 hat links aren't that hard? lol, they can be inconsistent for me at times but once I get it once it becomes easy for me.

They're not, but that doesn't get you to his meta.

Oh Yeah... and for me

Hardest

1 Cassie
2 Kotal Kahn
3 D' Vorah
4 Tanya (only because I am learning now )

Easiest

1 Raiden
2 Liu Kang
3 Kano
4 Erron Black
5 Kitana (though I'm used to playing her every game)

Yeh that's all over the place that chart.

HQT & Liu are pretty hard.

Kotal execution wasn't simplistic for me until I learned to go neutral between F1's. Even after that, there's a big difference between the un-upped 31-33's everyone does and the un-upped 42-54's that the dedicated Kotal players are doing. Once you get past that, his meta isn't all that simple at all. You gotta get in.

Jason is pretty simple, but he still has underlying tech. Goro is in Kotal's class, IMO, execution-wise. Everyone can play around with him a little and look OK with him, but its making the most of opportunities with him that gets you to his meta - and that means big damage and setting the course just right to set them up and keep him from being a target. Then, once you get to his meta - its just not that simple.

Bojutsu remains in a class by itself for execution simplicity.

There's a difference between learning and mastering a character and understanding their potential.

In terms of picking up and starting out, Jason, Goro, and Kotal are probably the easiest.

This ain't the same as being barebones or lacking in tech. They all have their intricacies, Kotal especially is an inch wide and a mile deep.
