My favorite character is a tie between Anakaris and Dudley. I have no idea why I like those two so much since they have no similarities, but something just feels right about those two. Maybe it’s the fact that they just seem so … fancy. Like, “swimming in a pool of coins like Scrooge McDuck after I finish my caviar” fancy.
Now, the fun part I want to see here are the characters that people HATE the most in fighting games. For whatever reason, be it in design or gameplay, you despise this character. For me, I’ll admit that I truly despise fighting Spider-Man in every game he’s ever been in. I’m not saying he’s “cheap”, because he isn’t, I just find fighting that pest really annoying.
I dislike Vega in ST. You can zone me out with Dhalsim or Sagat and I wouldn’t even be mad. But getting hit by the dives because I don’t know which way it’s gonna hit over and over again and messing up my reversal input just seems kind of infuriating, plus they are also buffering that super. Though I think Vega is pretty damn good with footsies, but the instant I get hit by a knockdown I just think, “Well fuck…”.
Seth is definitely the worst SF character ever. He plays stupid and looks supremely stupid. Seriously, his movelist is the most cliche FG boss move list (everyones good moves!) and aesthetically looks like a grey mannequin. I’ve seen half finished SC custom characters that look better than Seth.
How do you go from Gil, who has all original moves that change their effect depending on the side of the screen you’re on, to default ass, “Shang-Tsung beat me by 16 years” fuckin Seth?
Hmm, I’m beginning to notice that Rufus and Seth have dive kicks and Chun kicks a lot…
Can we just say kicking is for scrubs and that boxing is the one true style?
Love: Karin, Fei-long, Accel from Power Stone, Batsu, Kyosuke, and Kyoko from Rival Schools, Akira Yuki, Jun, Asuka, Leo, Marshall + Forest Law.
Hate: Rufus, Seth, Oni (completely pointless character), Adon, Honda, A3 V-ism Ryu
These lists can go on, but I’ll just stop here.
Fav- Morrigan Aensland. I’mma let yall finish but Morrigan is the greatest FG character of all time.
Hated- Squatch, Joe Higashi, Eiji Shinjo, Fish, Makoto (BB), Carl Glover, Iceman, Holy Sol, A.B.A, D-Jay, Nagare, Chairperson, Gon, Eddie Gordo, Baek, a bunch of KOF characters, and I could go on…
Hmm I thought Sean was most people’s favorite in the 3 series even though he was badly nerfed in 3s. Or is it just because he’s another shotokan clone?
