Warriors Fate: Street Fighter story thread, revived

Death - Not a bad Tier list. Personally, I would make 5 Tiers, placing Feilong in Tier 4 and everone else in Tier 5! I base this on absolutely nothing but my love for Feilong! WAATAAA!!!

No, seriously I think that Zangief and T-Hawk should be in Tier 4 while everyone else is in Tier 5. These guys are all Tier 5 on Saiki’s most current Tier list being the reason. Dhalsim is higher on your list (On Saiki’s he’s Tier 5) and I agree with that because after SF2 he gives up fighting to live with his family. Man, this is hard to think about! And I’d place Guile and Chun-Li in Tier 2 because either one of them defeated Vega, they just are not as strong right now because they’ve retired.

Personally, (based on absolutely nothing…) I think Zangief continues to fight after SF2. I also think T-Hawk does as well. T-Hawk can’t really rest like a lot of the SF2 cast because he has the hardship of rebuilding his homeland. Just my opinion.

In my opinion, Vega (Spaniard) is miles ahead of Balrog (Boxer) they shouldn’t be on the same tier.

I’m glad that people have answered. I would like more people to comment. And Clay we kinda argue about everything on this thread so don’t worry about it. You have alot of knowledge and I would like to hear your point of view. Holla

saiki mentioned that gen uses ki in his attacks, but that he doesn’t use any tangible or visible ki. well, i may just be a westerner, but my interpretation of ki is that EVERYONE has it, whether or not they’re a fighter, no matter what tier they’re on.

i see ki as energy, as a life-force, not as blue sphere you throw at people. of course, having a fighter turn his / her ki into something tangible is quite common, i am under the impression that it is in all things, and all fighters, whether it be gen, akuma or e. honda, use this energy to attack. of course, those with better ki manipulation are better attacks, and thus (generally) better fighter

Why is it then that Gouki is portraited with red eyes?? no normal human being has red eyes… and you cant even see if he has normal eyes… its just entirely red.No Human would have eyes like that.

The same reason lots of other characters have no pupils or eyebrows, I imagine. Artistic license.

Gotta agree with Tiamatroar. Sagat is usually drawn with no pupil and no one’s calling him a demon.

this is posted as Gill’s Info in GameGen:
General: Little is known about the madman named Gill, except that he controls a powerful secret society which has ruled nearly all underworld activites worldwide for thousands of years. The society’s objective is to make Earth into a Utopian society by the year 2200. Every 24 years, a new president of this circle is chosen from the children of 1024 groups of specialists. Based on Zodiac predictions, Chinese Fuunshu, and various fortune-telling and witchcraft, a few of these children are picked to be trained and educated in all forms of Earth culture, from the fighting arts and scholarly pursuits. Gill was selected as the newest president, and he embraced his role fully as a leader of the order. Gill is a master of many different martial arts and is also highly intelligent, but is also power-hungry. Gill hosted the third World Warriors tournament on his hidden island as a way of financing his entry into the global arena of politics. He also wanted to test his skills against the best fighters in the world. As a means of financing his empire, Gill reposessed a very influential family’s estate. He also had a soldier created to protect him, the cybersoldier known only as Necro. Confident that no one could beat him, he issued the challenge to many of the world’s greatest Street Fighters, including the last tournament’s champion and titleholder, Ryu. Seeking another in his empire as a soldier, Gill went to the home of an ex-soldier named Tom, who had taken in the son of his friend and taught him a great deal about the fighting arts. Attempting to persuade Tom to convince Alex to join his organization proved futile, and he ended up badly beating Tom. Thus, the challenge was issued to Alex, who then sought revenge against Gill for Tom’s defeat. It would not be Alex who brought the downfall of Gill, but the champion himself, Ryu. He was then confronted by Ibuki and Dudley. Beaten, he could do nothing but concede defeat, and gave Dudley back the last of his father’s unreclaimed possessions, his car. Before his mysterious disappearance, he also handed Ibuki files on his organization, known as the G-Files. Right before his escape, he ensnared an angry Necro as he activated the island’s self-destruct sequence. The organization, displeased with the performance of Gill’s brother Urien, decided to teach him a lesson by giving him what he wanted, namely the presidency of the secret order. However Gill still remains higher up than Urien, with a promotion to the rank of Emperor. Gill has not been seen since then, and many rumors persist that he is still biding his time for revenge against the Street Fighters whom were instrumental in his organization’s collapse.

Is it entirely true what is stated here about Gill??


About Akuma, he has always been portraid with red eyes…in every game exept his CvS2 SNK Portrait,where it isnt certain what color are his eyes… even in the neo geo card game he is portraid with red eyes… I’m not talking no pupil,cuz thats comon…I’m talking entire red eyes…not even Gill has ever been portraid with red eyes…

I dont know, to me, its kinda telling me something…but, maybe its just my obsesion with everything Evil.

most people here would agree that the bios listed on gamegen are way off, and gill’s bio is no exception. just look at some of the mistakes frankie has made:

angel [KOF]: “An easy going young girl who entered the KOF2001 tournament supposedly for fun.”

hon fu [FF]: “Young martial artist aspiring to be the best.”

That, IS not true. Frankie has a reputation for messing up with the characters’ storylines. :smiley:

Tiamat and sano are right. (Take anime, for example. Their eyebrows seem to “float” and overlap their hair. WTF???)

Quick question: Which of Ken’s supers is the most powerful, storylinewise?

I think it’s the Shinryuken. He gives it the most flash and is more FORCIBLE. (the other supers are “barrage” supers which tend to waste more energy)

I once hated Nash, but I like him better due to his heroism and cool looks, not to mention discussions on this thread!!! :slight_smile:

el cabron:
Already explained Gouki’s appearance. That’s how it is, no more, no less. The eyes make him look more intimidating and help present a super human aura. His abilities are exactly that, beyond human.

Actually, I think that his (Gouki’s) eyes are yellow in 3s.:stuck_out_tongue:
Gill’s eyes aren’t supposed to be red. The inspirations for Gill’s and Gouki’s designs differ greatly.

Also, that bio on Gill is messed up. Alex won the 3s. tourney. Ryu never fought Gill. Alex plays a role in Gill’s future plans, so Gill jobbed to him. Gill isn’t as evil or as maniacal as that bio would lead you to believe. He’s not a madman, maybe overly idealistic, but not a megalomaniac. Also, he hasn’t disappeared, it’s just that the SF3 storyline remains unfinished. Everybody is just kind of doing their own thing.

Magnet-0:
I would also tend to believe that the Shinryu-ken is Ken’s strongest super. His SF3 incarnation seems to indicate this as well.
-Clay

Duh! Just figured out that Charlie is a First Lieutenant in SFA 3. :stuck_out_tongue:

no… in third strike his eyes are red too.

you can check all the pics in this page and tell me that he doesnt have red eye balls in all of them.

These two are from alpha 3 not 3S. And Shin Akuma in SF3 second Impact is the one with yellow eyes.

Why is there two translations of the Shun Goku Satsu? Why Imprisoning Death Flash? Did someone just made that up and Kao Megura got fooled? Please answer.

Speaking of Gouki, does anyone have an idea of how old he is?

Is there any official artwork of Gouken and Goutetsu? I haven’t seen them yet, and I don’t play SFA.

Hey, who made the thread a sticky? He must be very cool.

http://www.vgmuseum.com/end/arcade/a/sfaaku.htm

Gouken and Goutetsu. Goutetsu’s the more skinny latter one.

Look at the top of the Fan Fiction board. Owe it to The Damned, the one formerly known as Sho 2. :wink:

Hmmm…now that I look at it…Amy and Mel are cousins! YOO HOO! Random info #483829 :smiley:

Wow. Gouki looks younger than both of them. I wonder why?

El Cabron:
Minor variations in things like pointed teeth or glowing eyes don’t have to mean anything other than that’s how that particular artist draws the character. Most (but not all) of the very “strong” people have glowing eyes.
That Gill doesn’t have glowing eyes doesn’t mean he’s weaker than Gouki. Urien has glowing eyes but he isn’t stronger than Gill.

I put those in there so that people would see that Gouki has always been portraid with red eye balls and that it just wasnt the artist’s choice to draw him up that way… the third strike portrait IS in the links I provided.

Well, I’m the only one who thinks that this should have some sort of meaning,cuz no one seems to care at all that he ALWAYS has been portraid that way… In fact you can look at the endidng that tiamat posted in where gouki apears with Goutetsu and Gouken…he has also red eyes in there.
They also refrain to Gouki as:
"If Evil has a name it is AKUMA"
Of course this would probably be a miss translation from the original ending by Capcom USA…

No other character has ever been portraid with REDEYEBALLS…EXEPT FOR EVIL RYU,or as some of you call him, SnH Ryu.
