counters are made to only be useful to players with good timing, not those who use counters all day and forget the other moves, and the benefit of a successful counter is an extra magatama(a bar for hakumens special moves) so hakumens counters are only good for players with good timing and know how to combo with hakumen.
Haku-men=not exactly the first character to call "noob friendly"
It depends on what level of play you're talking about. At low levels of play, Hakumen's very noob friendly, because his C attacks have good range, high damage, and amazing priority. You can pretty much spam C at low-levels and have a fair amount of success.
BUT! At the level of play contained in this video, from what I understand, Hakumen is towards the lower end of the tiers, so he actually takes more skill to use effectively than the others.
From my experience Haku-Men's counters don't do decent damage but they have to hit at the exact right moment or they are wasted. A lot of time you are better off blocking.
Too bad, Shadow lost his temper at the end... Seems like he got pissed off.

Haku-men isn't a noob friendly character? No shit. Now Jin, that's the ultimate noob friendly character.

The ultimate? That's a bit strong. I think Ken from street fighter and Misturugi from soulcalibur 4 would have something to say about that.

soul calibur is not really a good example 90 percent of that cast is noob friendly

Jin may be easy for noobs to pick up at first, but it takes a lot of work to really be skilled with him, just like any other character.

One of the best uses of Haku-Men's drive is to set up for his distortion drive, so much damage.

Shadow's Hakumen does attempts more counters than Buppa's, I've noticed...

Bang's counters were extremely power; not so sure if Haku-men's offer enough reward to justify the risk though...
