How much characters do you use from the roster?

i use , sabrewulf, glacius, spinal, fulgore, shadow jago, hisako, riptor, cinder, omen
and now tusk and arbiter so far

Thunder, Wulf, Jago, T.J. Combo, Hisako, Shago and Kim Wu.

Well if you only ever see yourself learning one or two characters, then you should be pretty happy with being able to get a full AAA fighting game for $10.

Passing off matters of taste as fact?

I have a Jago, a Riptor, and also some work on a Glacius and a Fulgore. I’m considering putting some work into ARIA or Maya or Kim Wu or Omen or someone else, hoping I’ll like Mira’s combat design. One day I might put the work into Cinder, but that’s proven very difficult for me so far.

Tusk doesn’t really appeal to me, neither does Thunder, and I get the impression that I could learn both very quickly. Arbiter’s combat design is really cool, but I don’t want to actually play him.I think that’s where I stand with a lot of the roster: I can respect all of the characters and appreciate having a diverse cast to play against, but I’m going to focus in on actually learning to play as characters with playstyles that I prefer.

I think based on our differences in character preferences, you should be appreciative of the relatively large and diverse roster: in order for there to be 6 characters you want to use, and 6 characters I want to use, there need to be far more than 6 characters in the game.

Just bought 2 dudes, TJ Combo and Hisako…When I understand more of the game probably will buy more

This. Just thank you.

I main Glacius and dabble with Jago, Shadow Jago, Fulgore, Arbiter, Cinder & Aria. KI’s probably the only fighting game I play where I can use every character on the roster tho.

Apart from the Season 3 characters, I’ve got the entire cast to Level 50. I tend to favor Sadira or Riptor for a lot of my serious matches, but I’ve taken everyone into both ranked and exhibition at least a few times to try and figure things out/get achievements.

Highly amused that someone said Aria and Kan-Ra are bad. Slightly-less amused (but still pretty amused) that they said Aganos and Maya are also bad. Both Aria and Kan-Ra are recent tournament winning characters, and Maya has both won tournaments and been in Top 8’s throughout the life of S2. Legions of people not playing a character doesn’t mean that character is bad - it might just mean their playstyle is challenging, their gameplan unintuitive, or any number of other factors. Fulgore is widely considered to be the best character in the game, but he’s rarely played at high level. Omen showed up in Top 3 of the KI World Cup when Rico needed a counter pick to Rebelo’s TJ.

On topic, I play Hisako, Jago, Sadira, and Kim Wu. I’ve dabbled with Orchid, Aria, and Thunder, and think the Arbiter might be worth a shot. I’ve bought season packs each season with no intention of playing more than two or three of the characters contained therein, primarily just because I’d like to support this game that I love. I can afford it, and even if I never touch certain characters, I’m pretty happy to do what I can to make this game the success I think it deserves to be.

I own every character except shago, and i use from most to least: spinal, thunder, tj, rash, kim, sadira.

I use the rest now and then but never in ranked.
