Testament mains are part of a collective mix-up. They condition you to only expect projectiles so that the one Testament that uses the teleport catches you off guard from the conditioning. Truly the most synchronized group of players.

As a Test main that uses the teleport a lot, even when I shouldn't, I don't care about being effective, I just want to give my opponent a mental breakdown. I sometimes even hold the K button for canceling the teleport and stay in place. I have never got a punnish out of it, but as long as I know I'm messing with my opponents mind, It will always be worth of it.

I'd give Nagoriyuki or Goldlewis a try. They're both big bodied characters and are a lot slower than other characters.

Also Potemkin, he's this games equivalent of Zangeif. Big slow grappler. Though beware, Nago has a unique technique (Blood Rage) that takes a lot of concentration to play around.

Generally you should keep your personal biases almost entirely out of things like this as you don't want to risk new players feeling bad about playing the character they think they'd like the most, potentially leading them to play a different character they don't like as much and leave the game sooner as a result Take the segment on Ky, for instance - a character you've made your feelings on very, very clear in the past. It tells new players _nothing_ about his gameplay (new players stand a good chance of not knowing what a "shoto" is), and it also contains actual misinformation. You specifically said that he "has 1 unique mechanic" in Shock State, but completely neglected to mention Dragon Install, which should undeniably count as a unique mechanic. Instead of talking about DI, or his gameplan, or how his pressure works, or literally anything else that you happily talked about with other characters, you instead complained about him for the rest of the segment, potentially scaring new players who were interested in Ky away from Strive as a whole.

Zato having eddie removed for 7 seconds because someone bursted, yrc'd or did a wild defend which removes all possible pressure zato can use to defend eddie is insane. They removed the BTL baiting burst so there is little consequence for bursting since zato can't use his burst combo anymore, meaning he gets 2-3 hits, then the next interaction is zato only mix since eddie doesn't come back. Most characters now can combo off any hit with zato only being able to WA combo off a clean hit cs, or a CH 2h or 5H in the corner. Why nerf the cmd grab dmg if it wont even bring eddie back.
