There are sixteen playable characters in DNF Duel, all contributing their own unique and chaotic twist on the game's fast-paced combat system. Dragon Knight is an excellent example of how characters can mix things up, as she's allowed to send her adorable dragon companion, Astra, into battle to help her extend combos, create pressure, and much more.

With the ability to create pressure from just about anywhere and mix her opponents up with quick and hard-to-read overheads, Dragon Knight offers a devious and direct playstyle that can be hard to deal with if you're on the receiving end of her fury. However, as much as she's fierce, she can be equally tricky to pick up, which is her biggest drawback.
In a cast of insane characters, Dragon Knight is among the most unique, thanks partly to her dragon buddy, Astra, and her ability to temporarily fly and swiftly dash across the stage to escape danger, close the gap, or land an instant overhead. However, like most mix-up and pressure-focused characters in fighting games, she can be a bit overwhelming to try and pick up for newcomers, as she has many tools at her disposal that you must be using at all times to get the most out of her.
This isn't to say that beginners shouldn't play her, just that learning how to properly weave in Astra and extend combos will take a bit more time with someone like Dragon Knight as opposed to some of the other options you have available to you. Still, what she offers gives her the potential to be an exceptional character with tons of potential, which is always exciting.
