Necalli - Garuda
Menat - Pullum
FALKE - Sharon (shooting gimmick)
Rainbow Mika - Blair (classic costume) <- but all costumes are going to be FEXL, ot SFEX
Dan or KEN - Allen (that would be hilarious)
CODY - Cracker Jack (big puncher + baseball bat)
M.BISON - Shadow Geist
URIEN or ED - Vulcano Rosso
ZANGIEF- Darun
NASH - D.Dark
ZEKU - Hayate
Btw i think at best FEXL will stops around 4-5
Iirc other crossovers have been
Many - 1
GG, WZ, CS - 2
RE, CB - 3
MH, MM - 4
DMC - 5
DS - 7
Yeah, that’s kinda given
Would be fun if color #10 get Hakan’s colors, considering Hakan was Capcom’s way to get Darun in SF4 without have Darun
That would be tragedy on levels similar to Ed getting Demitri (instead Bison, wich would have been glorious) or Menat getting Devilotte (instead Karin)
Give Menat a good Pullum costume and would be easily one of Menat’s best
I also think Menat CA is straight wink at Pullum’s dance super
Idk i ever found Shadowgeist to be heavy influenced by Bison (alpha)and Shadaloo
Had similar build (in artworks specially) and stances to A. Bison, a cape (in fexl he even get shin/forearm/shoulder steel protections) and one of his most distinctive moves was having literally Bison’s Head Stomp even with crossed arms
He also boosted his body/power using tech/science
Last, dude mask is literally a skull with a “S” designed to look like a thunder on the forehead… kinda like
“we utilized Gill as a character who appears as an embodiment of what that opponent desires. For Kolin, it’s peace for her country. For Urien, it’s a brother. For Ryu, it’s a stronger opponent.”
The Alpha developers made such a great job redesigning Adon, to the point he became one of my favorite SF characters EVER.
I wonder what would have happened if they had made the same to Joe, Mike, Lee and the others.
I mean, some of them had very lame designs. The SFV era would have been the best moment to bring them back, anyway.
I was also thinking about the Alpha series. That was definitely the most “Japanese-oriented” of the SF chapters, with almost all the new characters aside from Rose (and already existing characters like Charlie and the Final Fighters) being Japanese.
Even the SFEX series was more international.
The “international roster” approach came back for SF3 and continued in SF4 and SF5. I wonder if one day we’ll have a new SF chapter that will be more Japanese-oriented.
