I'm honestly so happy that Striker, Aerial, and Adept lance are all a lot of fun for me to play, and not as useless as I've been hearing a lot of people say. Of course, each style will be situational to certain monsters, but Lance has always been like that. Adept and Guild hunting horn are fantastic, and while I absolutely LOVE aerial HH, it's nearly impossible to use them against any of the demo monsters since they're all short, so I can't get both hits off in the air without wiffing one of them. Other styles I thoroughly enjoy are Striker + Adept SnS, all of the IG styles, all of the CB styles, all of the bow styles, Striker GS (adept GS isn't the most efficient, but it's a nice change of pace that isn't as repetitive as aerial GS), striker hammer, and adept Swaxe. (the ONLY style for that weapon that actually makes the axe mode usable)

I also enjoy Prowler, but I find it will be better when the game comes out, when I can get specialized Palicos that are actually good at specific roles, rather than lackluster in everything (seriously, healing as a Prowler is the most tedious and fruitless task ever, especially against Malfestio in the arena)
