Biggest tips with Hakumen:
- Simply running away for the first 20 seconds is a legit tactic. Gain stars, they gain nothing during that time.
- Abuse your best pokes (3C/j.C / 4C / 2B)
- Practice TK Hotaru. Best DP move in the game (Arguably)
I main Carl but I consider myself decent with the whole roster, maybe in the order Carl/Ragna/Tager/Makoto/Tsubaki/Jin/Lambda/Litchi…
Those are pretty much the characters I play as online most of the time.
Picked up the game a couple of weeks ago
Played most of the characters in Arcade mode but only one I’m focusing on right now is Noel
Just started playing online so I’m not very good but let me know if anyone here wants to play
I can relate to you quite well.
I also use Hazama, who has gradually gotten more difficult to use overtime.
Tsubaki, Taokaka, and Rachel are other characters that pique my interest as of now.
Ragna simply because of Tomokazu Sugita
He’s such a troll half the time in Bururaji xD
On topic though, I’m thinking about picking up Relius and/or Valk. Not because “uuh Relius the new character” or "uuh Valk is Hakumen #2 " but just by playing their stories, arcades and challenges (Relius 7/15, Valk 9/15) really got me into them. Plus their gag reels were great, even though Platinum’s was the funniest for me XD
Have you seen any of the following Gintama, SKET Dance, Daily lives of Highschool Boys.

Haha this was awesome.
I recently watched the lattest in it’s entirety and loved it. I’ve seen some episodes of Gintama but never heard of SKET. I’m such a nerd when it comes to Japanese voice actors, we should make a new topic dedicated to BB’s VAs alone.
Sorry for this off-topic chatter, carry on~
muuuuu
Hazama is my main character and Tager is my 2nd character.
I loved Hazama’s English voice as he nailed the crazy, but his new one is just awful in contrast. Every time it’s a vs. Relius I cringe. Considering swapping it to Japanese now just to avoid this.
CT: Jin/Nu-13
CS: Jin/Ragna
CS2: Jin/Ragna/Tsubaki
CSX: Jin/Ragna/Tsubaki
I initially picked Jin because of Ky Kiske and I liked him a lot so kept using him.
I chose Ragna because I liked his character and he was pretty fun to use so I kept with it.
Tsubaki I was just good at naturally oddly enough. Hmm… not sure why…
I used to use Nu-13 but dropped her because I was pretty bad with her compared to other characters.
Just picked up CS and right now I am playing/learning several characters but I have a wub affair with Tsubaki… tons of fun.
Tao is my baby, I can play mean keep away and I can punish a little…All I know is her distortion where she grabs you is a clutch all the time.
I play Hakumen as my main on CSE, mainly because I just liked his style. The counters are there, but they’re mainly mind game. All the really dangerous stuff I like involves Lotus or Firefly 
Makoto, because she has a kick ass combo system, Hakumen, because of his Parry system, Litchi (Again, kick ass combo system with a variety of moves) and Valkenhein, because of his Fast and Powerful Moves. Those have to be my main characters.
I personally love how Jin looks. His ice powers being so good looking is a bonus. He is my main, i just wish i was good enough to use him like the pros use him.
I never stick with just one person in fighting games.
In Extend, I use Arakune, Tager, Taokaka, and less frequently, Jin, Hakumen, and Noel.
Been maining Rachel since CT. I’m a die-hard character loyalist, so I’ve stuck with her.
Although I own it, I haven’t played a lot of EX. I do like what I have experienced. There is absolutely not BB scene around here though.
Been sticking with Tsubaki still! Definitely my favorite out of the bunch.
I recently put BB on during a local gathering and it was really funny to see the reactions. Quite a few players have never seen it in person and completely tripped out. Was really nice. Didn’t know that there is a really great Jin and an equally awesome Carl! After seeing some Carl in action, I’ve started to pick him up… just enough to learn some tricks.
