Bob (Tekken 6)
Easy to play, amazing poking, amazing frames, amazing evasiveness, there isn't much this character cannot do, with a lot of people considering him the "best Mishima" in the game, Bob Richards is an amazing S tier character.

Starter Guide
Bob is an amazing character as he has most tools you would ever want on a character, his strings are amazing with 2,1,2, df+1,2, b+2,2 and so on.
Bob has a crouch dash with a ton of good options like cd 1 being a safe wind god fist, 4,1+2 being the best hellsweep in the game, cd 3 being a safe mid options while also having an extension to scare your opponent from pressing with cd 3,2 (which is also, you guessed it, safe on block).
Bob has some of the best poking in the game with moves like db+3, db+1 and d+2,1.
The only "weakness" Bob really has is that he can only launch starting from 18 frames (16 if you can do cd 1 fast enough), of course he makes up for this with his while standing 14 frame launcher (WS 2,1).
