So here’s an interesting piece of media - there’s this artwork with all of the original World Warriors (made by Akiman if I correctly understood the text) and it depicts Ryu doing the stance that later became Akuma’s winpose. Coincidence, foreshadowing, or something else?

Ryu uses that stance too.

Just linking this here mainly because her story has some heavy interaction with Ryu. She seems extremely distressed that her friend has succumbed to the SnH and actively goes searches him dowm and it really reminds me of Alpha 3 when Ryu remembers what Chun Li said to him after their battle hoping that he still remains in control.
Ryu and Chun-Li are kind of alike, they both lost their fathers (or at least father-figures) and seek answers, of course Ryu has the extra SnH and Bison to look out for. This isn’t meant to be any shipping bait BTW, just some insight.
As for TEPPEN, the lady in the black cloak seems to be hinting at a expanded story with her inviting the characters into the “land of illusions”
Summary
Also the Iris card for TEPPEN is cruelly ironic, it only comes into affect after the card is defeated. The artwork for her card is her sleeping alongside flowers. Capcom really out here trying to make Iris and Colonel the robot version of Ophelia+Laertes🤦♂.

That looks like a SF3 or Post-3S Chun-Li, and Shadaloo is reforming in the end. Could it be? Is Bison the shiver that ran down her spine?
Maybe!? Given how Vampire Saviour has yet to happen and the game takes place long after an alternate version of the MMX games what if the cloaked lady is making her own “makai” with the energy of fighters both dead and living, including Bison?
That said, imagine a Bison and Sigma fusion, everyone would be screwed over.
2020 is our year.

Good luck man you may have all the Mu and SNH as your ulimate come mechanic in real life.
What i’m liking of Teppen it’s how the cards are portraying the SFers abilities, some feel pretty spot on
Curious to see others characters when next deck will inevitably come out
It’s even possible we will see new playable heroes, as some characters have 2 character-cards (like heroes)
For SF Bison, Ibuki and Zangief
I find the Teppen SF artwork to be very telling and invigorating. I really hope Bison gets added as a playable hero, as I think it could inform us on how Capcom see the character in 2019 and maybe even the future.
Makes me yearn for a new Pocket Fighter with all these guys.

Done with that art style i will surely welcome it
But i will love even “just” a Super Puzzle Fighter sequel NOT done by the mobile people
Bison can easily end up a playable Hero for black decks
If they do
Red - Ryu
Green - Chun Li
Purple - Ibuki
Black - M.Bison
They gave a SFer to each deck color*
I guess they can do the same with MM, DMC, DS and MH
*Zangief could be Green Hero too, but there’s already Chun Li and his cards despite being two don’t seem to be enough “special” to be linked to an Hero
