Leon and Bayman are like the Cassandra and Sophitia of DOA: Leon was originally meant to replace Bayman, until they felt the need to give Leon few different attacks just to not make Leon the direct clone of Bayman.

They were still played in extreme different ways in DOA4. While Leon was more of a heavy-throw and strong strike character, Bayman was more about combos, counters and juggles.

Leon was a safe mixup rushdown character with big damage on strike/launch, big damage on throw, and above average block punishment.
Bayman was a paradoxical. He was unsafe and slow so he had to be played defensively yet he had no block punishment to speak of. He also had terrible strike damage and only really respectable high-counter throw damage. His only useful gimmick were his holds, offensive and defensive.
One character was built solid as a rock, and the other was built entirely around a flawed gimmick. They were as far apart as you could get.
