Monkey D. Luffy
Monkey D. Luffy is one of the more balanced fighters, probably because he’s the star of the series. For those just getting into One Piece: Burning Blood, he’s one of the first characters you’re able to use, and you should definitely consider having him on your team. What Straw Hat lacks in ranged abilities, he more than makes up for in speed. Triggering his abilities puts Luffy in Second Gear, allowing him to quickly dash around the stages, and increasing the potency of his punches and kicks.
His Awakening places him in the brand new Fourth Gear. While basic movement in this form leaves a bit to be desired, his dashing and dodging abilities are still up to snuff, and his damage output is insane. Luffy can quickly and easily dispatch an opponent when in the right hands, and thanks to his Haki, Logia opponents aren’t even safe.
