Constant warping would keep deathstroke on his feet, and a good psycho crusher deluxe would spell the end.
First team, Kuja is a good amount stronger than Seph. I had him or Link in mind for Akuma. Trance Kuja is fast beyond fast. he'd take Akuma. Link with all of his items used in tandem would debatably be the strongest of my team, as he has a very good invulnerability spell. And a little Giant's Mask that make him a hundred or so feet tall, with strength to match. Plus power gauntlets that allow him to lift at least several tons at normal size. Let's see, there's also OniLink, as well as Link's veritable arsenal of magic, weapons, and magical weapons. FuSoYa just has an awesome name, I sincerely believe he's just strong enough to be a distraction long enough for the other 3 to take full advantage of their matches. METEO!!!
Second team, Deathstroke is not my strongest character. He's very stealthy, with plenty of weapons, very good fighting ability, lifting strength around 7 tons or so, and is extremely hard to kill. I had him in mind for Ryu.
Karate Kid is a master of every single martial arts style in the entire universe, and is also a master of every melee weapon in the universe. He is able to knock out extremely durable opponents with single strokes. He is quite capable of dodging and fighting speedsters. He can see weaknesses in anything, from metals to forcefields, and exploit them. He is able to deflect projectiles moving at near light speeds. The dude has no actual superpowers, but has jumped on a street and caused a ripple that knocked out several soldiers. He has punched through tanks. He's my Akuma guy. Whatever Gouki can do, KK can do. Better.
Mantis is insanely agile. She has been studying and practicing martial arts for several thousand years. She is a master of pressure points, able to knock out THOR and stun the JUGGERNAUT with single strikes. Bison's screwed.
Hellboy is a demon, who carries the power of the apocalypse. He's very strong, and experienced in fighting the supernatural (Dante). His Right Hand of Doom should do nicely for a demon killin. Or if not, he just gets help from KK and Mantis.
