Zagan the Gravebringer/Moveset

Zagan's moveset is primarily geared towards a powerful offense with moves that are fairly quick and can deal a significant amount of damage. Meanwhile, he is fairly well-rounded and has a decent neutral game as well since he does sport most of the basic tools needed in a fight, with a lack of range being his primary weakness. Naturally, Zagan is a simple character to pick up and play, albeit one who can prove to be one of the most dangerous fighters in the roster when played right, especially given the nature of his Style Action basically being a lifesteal ability.
Despite his incredible power, the Gravebringer does have some blatant weaknesses that smart opponents can utterly break through with ease. For one, Zagan's defenses are fairly lacking, having what few defensive options he does have be rather unsafe, especially on whiff. He also sports below-average max health, making him slightly more frail than one would expect of a well-rounded fighter - even with his Style Action's otherwise-useful effect, and is quite reliant on his Action Gauge to let out his most dangerous setups.
