I agree with this guy, Havik, Hotaru, Mavado, and there are a few really good new characters that have been made. Havik is just freakin' awesome.

Ones that need to go are Kobra, Jarek, Sheeva, Hsu Hao, Mokap, Daegon, Drahmin, Moloch, Shujinko, Li Mei, and Chameleon/Khameleon

Kobra and Jarek are both virtually unneeded members to beef up teh BDC, and neitehr have much to make them stand out. However... I would save Kira, because it's good to see a villaness, and she's got attitude. If they would take time to give her individual moves, I'd love to keep seeing the deadly little red-head.

Sheeva and Kintaro both should go... we have Goro, and that's the only real four armed shokan we really need.

Hsu Hao... if a member who created you wants you dead... you know you're awful. I'd say my RDC KAK, Tolomov would be a much beter replacement (not just tooting my own horn), even the founder, Daegon was killed off against Taven, so therefore, he should not be around either.

Mokap, I'm not wasting my time on him. Drahmin and Moloch, it's a good idea... but Drahmin is waayyy too cheesy, and if there's Goro, or even Onaga (which isn't really that useful either, tbh), there's no need for the big oni. Instead, make a smaller kharacter sized oni, like Drahmin... but just better.

Shujinko.... I just don't like this guy, solely because he has no individual moves of his own. it's just "Hey, Boon. I'm going to throw every good character we've made's moves onto this old fart, so he can obliterate everyone by FIRIN MAH LAZOR"  He has no real purpose to be honest, especially if we are going back in time to before his existance.

Li Mei, in my honest opinion is just useless T+A, especially when she debuted. She had a little story going for her, but not enough where I would spare her from being FINISHED!

As for teh 'meleons... look at Shujinko, and you'll see why.
