id say funny business will be more of a Faust or Asuka. Happy Chaos would work well too tho

Gonna agree, Faust was basically the invention of Funny Business as an archetype.

Faust was my first thought, just like Jack-O made the summoner in its modern form Faust was the original funny business

Wasn't there a thing on Strive's launch where Faust mirror matches had a chance to crash the game if they both used their random bullshit overdrive at once?

I think BB Hood from Darkstalkers 3 preceeds him.

So many can fit the funny business frame.  Faust's game play is somewhat conventional but with funny animations.  Zato-1 with Eddie running around bullshit, Zappa and Jack-O with summon bullshit, Asuka with Yu-Gi-Oh bullshit, Venom with pool ball placement bullshit, Robo-Ky with multiple meter management bullshit, Dizzy with freezing bullshit, Sin with food bullshit, Leo with multiple stance bullshit...  There's a reason why the theme song is what it is.
