I will be honest, i don't really remember, what free toons they give you in the beginning, but:

Countering the reflection isn't that hard, you just need to use 1 skill or chase with any debuff, then use Hashirama's ult on your target.

You are on a new server, so I understand that your moonscrolls needed for power items, but getting Edo Nagato isn't a bad thing either. He is expensive, but a really annoying ninja. Especially when you are able to trial him.
