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. That said, having such a immense focus on offense also means he's pretty meager when it comes to playing defensively and can be taken down fairly quickly should he get too careless. However, his Style Action slightly circumvents that by granting him a small health recovery every time it hits, but even that can only help for so long.
