Good mix-up kharacter for beginners?

I've been trying out Sonya, and I do enjoy her. I just find I am getting punished too much, and have trouble closing distance. I am fairly new to fighting games, so someone who is on the easier side would be nice.

I am thinking of trying out Cassie or Jacqui, but I'd love to hear some other ideas.

Thanks!

Sub is super easy to pick up and is the most 50/50 based char in the upper tiers right now. The non optimized combos are like 3-5% lost damage, so you can stick to the easier versions without missing much. His game plan is so simple and let's you focus on spacing, wake up game, footsies. He has fewer options than some but he is very solid. Highly recommend.

Sound like I'm going switch to Sub-Zero! I'll keep Sonya in my back pocket for now.

Thanks for the advice!

Sub Zero or Erron Black. Kano is also a lot of
fun and very effective for how basic his gameplan is.
