Hawkeye
Orphaned at a young age, Clint Barton and his brother Barney fled to a traveling circus. Clint was trained as a master archer, and eventually became known to the world as Hawkeye, the world's greatest marksman. Growing up, Hawkeye idolized Captain America, and sought to use his abilities for good, Although there were some minor altercations beforehand, including being framed, he eventually caught the eye of, and ended up joining the Avengers. Hawkeye can get a bit cocky and hot-headed at times, but he can definitely back up his words with a multitude of specially-crafted arrows at his leisure.
In a nutshell
A strong zoning character, Hawkeye can fill the screen with projectiles to keep out even the best of rushdown. He has all the tools a keepaway character could want, ranging from angled shots, projectile normal attacks, and a tracking arrow hyper, but even his melee normals are all very solid. At a range, hes a menace, but up close, he can combo with the best of them.

Strategy vs. Hawkeye
- Hawkeye's omnidirectional Gimlet hyper is powerful in part because it is instant on start-up after the cinematic, but you can take advantage of it being instant and avoid it completely with a few different few actions; provided you are not in block-stun. The first option is using a power up hyper like Berserker Charge during the cinematic of Gimlet. The invincibility and quick recovery time of these types of hypers will have you dodging Gimlet and leaving you in great position to punish, or at the very least with good frame advantage. The second option is to use the invincibility of "raw" tags to dodge the Gimlet. Though this option will not leave you in as good position afterwords, it can be used by the entire cast and can still be very useful to save a character from a chip death.
