BBTag: Top 10 most newcommer friendly characters

Could just as well be "Top 10 Easiest Characters in Blazblue Cross Tag Battle", although it would change placements.
The ranking is mostly meant for characters who you can play without much practice.
For example: despite Ragna and Weiss having more difficult combos, you can still just do those from my "Easy Combos"-series and be good to go for your initial month(s) of play: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIIO6LRhcrdpsvvn1wHOp52e31m6yGSC1
Orie and Vatista didn't make it, because all their decent combos require you to learn their harder aircombo route.
So the criteria for "newcommer friendliness" is primarily the ease of use on a lower level. A list on characters who grant you easy success at competitive tournaments would be different (but with some similarities). Accomplishing a top 8 major with Makoto is pretty hard, for example.
