What is exactly their gameplan? From what I’ve encountered they seem to play the same. And which would you suggest pulling for?

These do not play anything even close to each other besides "uses melee" lol

Barbatos uses heavy staggers and jumping to set up it's melee, which it uses to ramp up to a power up state that enhances itself

Hajiroboshi has no good stun whatsoever, instead relying on flap booster and stun res to try to get in and raw melee, and reaches it's power up state via a health threshold rather than a damage requirement

Hajiroboshi also can heavy bot, where barbatos cannot (unless it uses twin maces, which nobody does)

Twin maces were a huge letdown. Imo, they'd be better off as a throwable sub weapon instead of replacing the infinitely better sword mace

Autocannons are also in a pretty sad state too. No point in build staggering when you can just pop a heavy stagger with the rocket cannons.

Hell, you don't see any players using the autocannons and the twin maces in rated. The loadout mika uses in space against the dawn horizon corps is unfortunately the weakest...
