The very first time I tried blazblue, I immediately went to the training mode and looked for the coolest/most attractive person. Sadly, at that time, all the designs looked so weird and so I went with the most "normal" which was Noel. I also tried Tsubaki as well, but the combo changes from CS2 to CSX put me off. I ended up just choosing the characters that fun gameplay mechanics with out being overly difficult as BB was my first real fighting game, and ended up choosing 3 robot girls
Though I still can't figure out which of the 3 that I like better.
