Standards for Reasons to Pick

This section is intended to help new players and those looking to switch characters to have idea if they would like a given character.
Many of the points made will be subjective, it is ok if you disagree but this isn't a reason to edit or remove something.
Reasons to Pick / Avoid will not include information about the tier placement or direct strength of a character, that information is readily available both on Dustloop and elsewhere. These are valid reasons but invite too much controversy.
It is perfectly valid to have one point listed as both a reason to play and a reason to avoid. For example, high execution requirements may attract some players to a character and make others avoid the character.

{{ReasonsToPick
| intro = {{Character Label|GAME|FULL NAME|24px}} followed by a summary of the character's playstyle in 1 sentence.
| pickMe = bullet point list of strengths
| avoidMe = bullet point list of weaknesses
| tablewidth = NUMBER size. Will determine the % width of the screen that the table fills. Default: 69.

Example

Basic Example

Play if	Avoid if
Pro 1 Pro 2	Con 1 Con 2

Populated Example

Play if

Avoid if

strong neutral game; fast, far-reaching normals that yield knockdown and damage.
Pressure that utilizes many lows, rewarding frame traps, and opportunities to reset pressure or safely return to neutral.
Has a tool for every situation, including two strong anti-airs, a great mash out move in 2P and two reversal attacks.
Can Knockdown after most confirms thanks to Lightning Javelin having a ton of untechable time.
Strong okizeme between 3H, 236D, j.236D, j.D, j.214D, 5K and j.S

Second Chance mix up tools are limited and either require meter or end your turn and put you on the defensive.
His long distance game is very one dimensional and is very outclassed by most other projectile characters.
Many of his buttons have proration leaving Ky with very low average damage.
His approach is very straight forward and easy for more defensive characters to stop.
