My friend code is SW-3686-1162-9804.

I finally gave in and bought all the remaining DLC characters I didn't have (Fighter Pass 2 + Piranha Plant). I'm a very casual player, I can probably beat other casual players with some regularity but I'm hopeless even against, like, level 8 and up CPUs.

Nevertheless, it was fun trying out the new characters.

Piranha Plant - Tricky to use and I'm not really used to his low mobility, probably not gonna be one of my favorites any time soon.
Joker - Fun to use (I like fast characters) and comes from one of my all-time favorite series. His normal mode does feel weak but once he summons Arsene... I feel a bit pressured to make the most out of the bar and usually get all panicky and do stupid stuff.
Hero - Kinda eh since I don't really like the RNG-based spell, and especially since I don't have the effects memorized. And accessing the menu and trying to read it in the middle of the battle is scary. I do appreciate the costumes though.
Banjo & Kazooie - Also feels tricky to use. I'm especially nervous about using their neutral B and side B since they feel like huge commitments.
Terry - Eh. I'm kinda meh on the fighting game characters. And he doesn't really bring anything I wasn't getting from Ryu/Ken.
Byleth - They feel weirdly heavy. The monastery and cameos are pretty fun even if vanilla. Not really interested in using them a lot.

Min Min - Surprisingly pretty fun, even if tricky. I need to be more careful with my attacks but I like the amount of options she has. Would like to try her out more.
Steve/Alex - If I can get used to their mechanics, they seem pretty fun and troll-ish to use. I need more time with them. But I dunno about the mining RNG.
Sephiroth - Pleasantly surprised by how powerful he feels to play. Really feels like playing a boss character. And his Classic mode quite surprised me since it was a Boss Rush.
Pyra/Mythra - Also a bit surprised at how much I enjoyed them. All the specials are interesting enough but still feel intuitive in what they do.
Kazuya - Another pleasant surprise. He still feels somewhat hard to master (especially his combos), but he can also be played simply and still be effective. And I really like the Tekken-style flourishes when they activate. And the destructible stage was fun too.
Sora - My boy. Really fun to use due to how much he feels like on his home series. But it's been hard for me to use him effectively. Need more practice.

Ranking based on how much I enjoy playing them:
Joker > Pyra/Mythra > Min Min > Sephy > Kazuya > Sora > Hero > Piranha Plant > Banjo & Kazooie > Byleth > Terry
