how do people enjoy playing gryphon

so I recently grinded (gambled) for Gryphon's Test Your Metal armor because i thought it looked really good, and it does! Yet after this I made the unfortunate mistake of actually playing gryphon to show off my cool new outfit and see it in action.

He just plays so clunky and awkward sometimes. Being sent back to neutral is literally just part of his kit essentially. I know he's supposed to be a simple character but it all feels so boring or slow especially when you're fighting actually competent players where they can just block you ouy. Even if you slip past them he has 0 chain pressure at all, just land another light or tap them in the same direction to use your super cool patented veteran moves where you just play rock paper scissors on how your enemy will react.

Maybe he's just not the guy for me but I don't see any appeal to play this character other than looking cool while I do it. His feats are neat i suppose, being a full on support or tank can be gratifying but when it comes to actually pressing the buttons and playing the game its a snore fest, worse than warlord.
