Ninjara is easy as hell to play. Minmin is far more technical. Ninjara is simple, move a lot. Just move and attack when you have a chance. Or you can go for a rush down offensive ninjara and abuse teleport and movement speed to confuse and strike all while constantly attacking. He's seriously the easiest to play besides springman.

Springman is tough to master. Springman is one of the best characters in the game because of his shockwave ability, but getting it down is tough. I would argue that Byte and Barq are the easiest to play, as all you need to focus on is mobility with Barq and when to use his jumps (which you shouldn't too much).

I don't know. All you've said is true yet still I barely win with him.  He's just not my type, I guess. On the flip side, I think it's easy to play against him because many players who use him heavily rely on throwing and it's easy to counter once figured out.

Not really bro, I'd say Byte and Barq are pretty hard to play, but I only really play ninjara. But from my experience on ranked (I'm r19) spring man is very simple to play and most new players and even some experienced players will lose simply because a springman does the "spring man 1-2" (dash and spam deflect while punching). And I've used springman maybe once, and I pretty much had the springman 1-2 down. He's easy to master, the problem is using his abilities in ways that aren't predictable. Which if you play against someone like Resolve.... oh god.... you'd understand why he's the actual best character in the game.

Byte and Barq tho.... I don't see him being easy to use, especially after the nerf he got.

Also, what I noticed very fast when playing online is that a lot (like, a LOT) of players will always go for a throw when a fight starts, and will keep trying to use a throw to open a battle, even after evading their attempts and punching the shit out of them the will still do so, until they finally manage to grab me. And only then they continue to use regular punches. Anyone else noticed that, too?

Its a mix up, you don't encounter it that much in higher level play but its something that you see or gets thrown out if you end up doing the same thing at the start every time. Like for me, I tend to dash to charge at the start like most people, other times I throw an arm out for a quick chip damage hit. If I do the usual dash chances of me getting grabbed are fairly high if timed correctly. If I do the punch, I'll punch right through it and get damage. Each of these has its advantages. In the case of the punch, if I miss I don't have charged arms, in the case of the charge, I could get punished for it unless my opponent does the same or unless they miss their attack.

Really? Most players on the Discords seem to think that Byte and Barq are pretty easy to use. They're not that good, but yeah. And of course, Resolve is top 5 on the leaderboards lol. I've lost to him and his Spring quite a few times, but there's a huuuuuge gap between being good with Spring and getting to Resolve's or Defur's level with him. (Also play ARMS pretty competitively)

ninja players its time to come out!

Too many Ninjaras aaaaaaargh!!!

there's not enough ninjaras :(
