Astaroth and Viola Announced at TGS

I regret ever reading the comments, there is enough info here to start a bad fan fiction.

Videos look good so far, only thing I don't like is the instant guard or whatever it is called. Looks like there is no counter play involved and kinda random if these game journalists can pull it out of nowhere. I remember similar mechanism in Naruto fighting games where if you press guard just before an attack hits you will dodge and teleport behind your opponent. Everybody just ends up constantly tapping the guard button whenever possible and the whole offense/defense thing becomes a mess.
Just guard isn't THAT good, though.. Kayane said most moves can only be JG punished with A.A, and few moves could be punished with B.B, depending on their recovery time.
 
They could always change his mechanic. Since they want something new, how about making Bangoo a character who's weapon is his ARMOR?

He'll be like fully clad in heavy armor decorated with animal skin. And he'll have some of Rock's trademark moves like the flying lariat and butt attack, but infused with his specialty: Auto-GI attacks.

Or he can be the double tomahawk guy. Could be a nice foil to Cervantes, sword dual wield vs axe dual wield.
