Gladiator logically with a shield and trident, with his chains and strings, should be a hybrid so his block doesn't have to be refreshed.
Centurion should be an assassin, with his damage, setup, pressure and stamina drain. He shouldn't have all this plus block priority. I also think since he can do his jumping stab to anyone on the ground, it's damage shouldn't be as high as it is.
Shinobi simply needs more health. His mobility and counter attack is great but that means nothing in a 1v2. Revenge doesn't save him like it does others. He gets 50%'ed by most heavy attacks. Or more.
Orochi's new light attack chain is too fast. The initial hit should be reverted to how it was, and the follow up attacks should stay the same. He can win most fights by simply spamming his light in any direction with no penalty.
And lastly to people saying shogoki needs buffed, no, stop. He has a light attack into an instant stamina drain, and is easily top 3 characters to have in a team fight. Armor, a fully charged unlockable heavy and a cc high damage grab, and with his armor passive his dual is good too.

Let me pick at certain pieces of what you said for a minute.
Gladiator does have absolutely abysmal guard timing because of his reflex guard. Despite having a shield, he has an awful time blocking and is more used for dodging attacks. Perhaps this was an intentional design choice, or not. I'm personally not sure.
Centurion is pretty bad on his own, he doesn't really need any sort of nerfs at this moment. In 1v1 he's terrible as long as you stay away from walls, and in 4v4 his a lot better but he's not necessarily good. Making him an assassin as opposed to a hybrid wouldn't make a whole lot of sense thematically.
Shinobi does not need more health. He already has enough to be just about equal to all other assassins. They already gave him more health from when he was released. Turtle with a shinobi and it's very difficult to be damaged, just play him smart.
Orochi is fine aside from his delay window on lights after heavy attacks. It's too long. His normal light chains are perfectly predictable and reactable.
Shugoki needs things to assist his 1v1 potential BADLY, just like Lawbringer. Don't ruin him more just because you got hugged in a teamfight a few times and got angry that you died immediately.
