Easiest Characters to pick up on Stick?

learning the very basics of the game (when to attack, when to guard, how to move) cass or mitsu seems the most straightforward. Once you get a feeling for the overall flow of the game, I believe amy and astaroth are the easiest in the sense of decision making (at a casual level) to get relative success from.
 
IMHO I say Cass/Soph, Sieggy/Nighty, or I even heard that Kilik wasn't so bad for begginers.
 
try to use ivy, I found her easy to use without all the stances just sword forms. i started in whip form, then moved to sepherhants embrance, now I use mainly the sword state but she is awesome on so many levels! if you have x-box live I'd love 2 battle you.

Now i've become massively comfortable with Taki, I find myself raging HARD @ Kilik players, as I can't even begin to get near the little wanker.

I played Kilik in SCII, now I find myself loathing him to the fullest extent.

I absolutely now what you mean. In SCII and III, he was nearly unstoppable. Whenever I play online and someone spams him with me, they always say "U suCK n need 2 leRn 2 Blok."
 
It might not be my place to give advice since I'm a noob, but I would imagine most of the SC cast plays easier with a stick. Just pick whoever you have the most fun with and put the time in!

Actually, I find the opposite. Setsuka and Ivy are way easier to play on pad and Hilde is ONLY played on pad rather than stick. Granted, some characters benefit if you learn a stick - yoshimitsu springing immediately to mind, but you can play any character well on pad and some characters are arguably limited if you play them on stick.
For example:
On pad, I:
Main: Siegfried
Second: Kilik
Tertiary: Ivy

But on Stick, I:
Main: Setsuka
Second: Yoshimitsu
Tertiary: Voldo

Not because they are easier on a stick, but because I physically can't play my pad mains on it and believe me, I've tried hard to achieve that. =/

I've just picked up this game and I was immediately drawn to Tira because she is a crazy weirdo, which is fun. Do you think she is best on a stick? I've been using a stick with her thus far and everything seems to be fine.
 
You shouldn't have any problems on either tbh, she's simple enough to use input wise - if anything GS buffers are easier on a stick, so go with that. =)
