I feel like in this SF6 bus scenario, Luke is the guy everyone else keeps trying to subtly leave behind, but every time we think we lost him, he's already found his way back onto the bus
I love how everyone just gets left behind at the bus stop. And then there's Necalli who got locked in the bathroom, Fang who never makes it to the bus, and then Kolin, Ed, and Falke who get shot on sight.
I loved Adon ever since his SF4 ending, where he's watching Sagat, and being all "Hah! I'm so much better than him now! haha!" And Sagat doesn't even know he's there and wouldn't give a shit if he did, 'cause he's moved on with his life and isn't obsessed with fighting any more. And I found that hilarious. He's a joke of a villain.
I honestly dig Adon because he’s the “fallen apprentice” of one of the major SF characters. If he doesn’t show up again it’d be pretty neat to see Sagat with another legacy character that represents how great Adon could’ve been if he chilled out and wasn’t a sadistic prick
If Adon comes back, they should give him a new character development. Maybe make him realize that Sagat went easy on him, so he wants a rematch and then get beaten up badly. He can be cocky and spiteful but also a bit more mature.
@@rekkazan Yeah, like what if he’s still a cocky asshole but he’s still pondering why Sagat became so mellow and left his merciless side behind and that one question could add depth to him maybe.
You reminded me of Max's previous discussion of Luke being Ryu's protégé, and Sean coming back as Ken's. Adon would make a good third example as Sagat's.
I wanna see the bus scenario animated, how each character gets left behind. Especially seeing Abel in the corner just being the milk ice cream, Wonder bread neutral character. Imagining the absurd way Adon gets yeeted off the bus is just hilarious
Ryu and ken at the end feel like they forgot something but say its probably not important, then they cut to fang and necalli and all the other bottom tier characters waiting at the bus stop 🤣
@@tengudwn57 No words. Just looking at each other, nodding in sync. Dhalsim stretches his arm to open the window behind Adon before Dudley shoulder checks him out the window as they hit a bump.
@@mbphilipblack8993 Abel was bland. With Luke being the series' new MMA inspired character & being positioned by Capcom themselves as a future big character for the franchise moving forward, I would not be surprised if we don't see Abel in another SF game for a very very long time.
@@DragonHeart613 Okay I get what you're saying, but the fact he doesn't know his past there's so much to work with and the connection to Seth and Guile is very interesting. He could also play a role in Luke's story as an older fighter potentially motivating him seeing himself in Luke adding to Ryus and Guiles mentorship.
@@DragonHeart613 Yeah I get what you're saying unfortunately he's been replaced with Luke but he was in SF5 in some story elements at best he'll be DLC nowhere near base roster.
I think Kolin has potential for growth (or even a fire version for her in SF6 instead of ice) Hoping Twelve gets justice and becomes Thirteen Makoto def. needs to come back
As a Necro main, I was dredding the Third Strike part, after what Max said last video. But I'm glad Max shares the same opinion that the whole cast either deserves a slot or doesn't deserve the axe. Also I'd LOVE to see hyper realistic stretchy mime tazer fight along side his Harley Quinn esque Goth GF.
Sean carrying on Oro's fight style art would be nice; since Oro was last located in Brazil, from a third strike perspective and would be better Sean to harness his skills and add it to his Metsuda family roots fight style, as well as continue Oro's fight style legacy; it would be like Ryu and Akuma's Satsu No Hado arts scenario, but in a alternate world and not corrupt like arts; Sean is already cocky, so him learning a fight style that involves, using only one hand and arm behind his back, after mastery, would be nice; he then can revist Ken, his previous tutor and show him his new skills he got introduced to by a Hermit(Oro); Sean would be OP in SF6.
I think if people really want Sean, they should at least be okay with Laura. Their little sibling interaction in the SFV story is kind of nice and could lead to some more character development for both of them if they're in the same game together. Laura always sees him as a little brother no matter how strong he gets or maybe have a situation where Sean gets more serious if he has to protect Laura from a dangerous threat.
@@micah459 Not saying you have to like her. Just that since she's Sean's sister she's should most likely be around if he is. I feel like a good chunk of people like one of the yun and yang twins and not the other. But, everyone agrees they should ALWAYS be together. Even with Akira they still brought Daigo into the game along with her, even if they couldn't make him his own character.
Max clearly just doesn't like weird/goofy characters unless they're an explicit joke character. Hence why he doesn't like Blanka, Adon, FANG, Abigail, Rufus, Fuerte ect.
Out of all these, Rufus and Adon are the only ones I can get. Rufus is kinda just there (and is also said to be somewhat insulting as a fat character rep) and Adon's kinda meh. The rest are either fine or F.A.N.G. who should genuinely be kept in the franchise going forward and expand him even more
Dan was a joke character but oddly enough everyone seems to like him now. I didn't like Abigail initially but he looks great in the DamnD costume, in fact he looks much better in just about every other costume. I also found the damage he did at launch was absolute bullshit, but thankfully that's been toned down.
@@karnovrpg dan had more than enough time (and time in the spotlight) to build a fan following though Him being legit good for once in his career was a big moment too
Your take on removing the Joker-esque element of Adon is actually an interesting idea. Maybe after getting more and more experience in the fighting world, he begins to lose that bravado he had in his youth and, if not mellow out, at least begin to get more serious, sorta like what they did with Alex throughout Street Fighter 3.
Wasn't Sagat feeling the satsui no hado in his last story beat? Maybe seeing his old master in such a state could spur some personal development in Adon.
I didn't play much SFIV but the bit that I played as El Fuerte was really fun. It sucks that the Ramon/El Fuerte archetype is usually really annoying to play against so most people who don't main them hate them.
I kinda want Ed and Falke to come back. Not just for their roles in the story, but because of their fighting style. SF has Charge characters and Motion characters, and it was refreshing to see Button characters put in as well. At the very least Capcom shouldn't give up on that mechanic.
@@thepuppetmaster9284 Personally I want them to be brave and do another 3rd Strike or alpha and actually nuke the original cast minus Ryu, Ken, and Chun Li. I know the World Warriors are nostalgic favorites, but let the new people shine. Also because I feel a bit cheated when I'm sold 80% of the same roster every time, granted SFV added some interesting twists to them. Maybe not completely get rid of them, and bring them in, but I rather the newer characters get priority.
@@GuyWithAnAmazingHat It’s insane that Adon is Sagat’s rival and I love that they kinda are despite being in a whole seperate weight class for muay that. It’s really cool
For me the only thing I really hate is all the sounds he constantly makes... it's a bit much and if they toned it down a bit I think it would be less annoying.
After seeing the absolute glow-up Dee Jay received with his looks, moveset, and just overall vibe, I have full confidence that they could take El Fuerte and turn him into someone truly worth being part of the roster
I can't believe people still say "But they can't come back they're dead" in regards to fighting games. Literally every major fighter has brought back a "dead" character at this point except maybe (as far as I know anyway) Guilty Gear. Charlie was ON SCREEN when that was brought up here
@@Wilkins325 I get that. Max generally doesn't buy this line of thinking though and having watched this stream he definitely was being sarcastic here. It even came up a seperate time and he just outright said he was being sarcastic
The thing is when you kill a character, people don't expect them to come back unless hints are left for their return, and usually if a character DOES die the story now has to explain how they were brought back or that they were never ACTUALLY dead to begin with. Plus, on top of all that, if a character is killed and seen as important enough to bring back, then they should have some important reason to be there or it raises the question of why revive them to begin with instead of making a new character? There's a reason most fighting games don't kill characters often. Nash is a good example, at least imo, of a character being brought back done right. Charlie was brought back by the illuminati, with what seems to be the same tech used to make Twelve, and his return served to show even more of what kind of stuff the illuminati is capable of. Plus, SFV was supposed to show the end of Shadoloo, so bringing Charlie back for one last shot at Bison as well as to give some closure for Guile works narratively. After that? He stays dead (At least I'm hoping otherwise, again, why kill him the second time?) as now, his story is essentially over. While I can understand people's problems with this logic, as they still want to play the characters they like, it also leads to a situation where either no one is allowed to really die, aside from the villain of the game (which works for most fighting games to my knowledge since many of them don't even have canon endings for characters till the next game), or leads to dragonball syndrome where death and revival happen so often that a character dying means nothing so you may as well not kill them at all. Now while the former is fine and works for most games, it also means we don't often get stories like Guile and Charlie's. So when we do get stories like that, it should actually mean something. Tl;Dr Fighting games don't tend to kill characters often, at least not in canon endings, but when they do, I feel they should have SOME sense of permanence to them otherwise it defeats the point of killing them to begin with and makes death mean nothing in the story
I would like to see Twelve come back in some evolved super-predator boss form. I feel the realistic style would compliment a creepy monster character like that.
Kolin, Ed and Falke were clearly set up for the next part of the story, yah i agree that their introduction was pretty uninteresting but im pretty sure they are coming back. I do think they have a lot of potential if done right
@@adamfrancescutti7615 yah, i felt like her character was incomplete, hope they give her a grand goal or something so her character becomes interesting
Now hear me out: Give Rufus' fighting style and moveset to his girlfriend Candy and make her the new character who can call Rufus during her supers. I actually enjoy his weird kung-fu movie moves and even his antics, and I think it'd be really funny if he had like a fucked up knee or something and couldn't join the tournament, so Candy offers to take his spot and just so happens to also be a fighting prodigy who can copy moves that she's seen on TV. That way we wouldn't have to deal with his terrible character design and give his playstyle to a cooler, ditzy waifu. Win-win situation lmao
Idk I really enjoyed Kolin. I love the ice powers and the uniqueness of her gameplay it afforded. I also love her design and fighting style. Reminds me of like a Metal Gear character or something.
I liked her too, props to them fully fleshing her out from just being a part of Gill's intros intro a tragic survivor of war turned zealot who you gotta feel for. Also, it's cool to see SF finally go all in on an ice character.
Gameplay wise Ed is one of my favorites SFV characters but jesus tyhey really need to just give him a re-design and a personality. Since he's got the whole boxing apprentice thing going on just have him get beat up by Dudley and have Dudley become his new teacher and have him become all prim and proper while expanding on the Psycho energy stuff
I could see a great story to introduce him. Since Rufus watches a lot of martial art movies and built his fighting style from them. What if King Cobra's an American action movie star that Rufus based it on? It could lead to a slight variation of the style, but from a master user of it. And also lead to a rivalry between King Cobra and Fei Long, such as for best Kung Fu actor in the world.
I’d rather have G again than Q tbh but that’s just me. I thought G was so fun to play whereas I just could never get the hang of playing as Q. He’s got such an awkward style I just can’t be good with a character like that
Even though Max axes some characters I like on this list, for the most part I agree that maybe these characters should not be high priority for future SF rosters
I just hope that SF6 has a bigger and more diverse base roster at launch than SFV had honestly. 16 characters wasn’t nearly enough especially considering the abundance of great and interesting characters this franchise has. I feel like 24-28 characters to start off would be perfect
2:34 no you're wrong FANG is the best hope for a good vilain in sf6, he is not a god that no one understands, he is not M "Lame" Bison, he is a man that will burn the world to bring psyco power to a ruling position FANG MELTS people when they get in his way, what does gill do? talks? my hope for the final boss in sf6 is for FANG to be possed by psyco power, be distorted by it (something like Faust in strive maybe), and summon a Bison stand as a cheap boss mechanic
Best hope for a villain? Come on man. His design is shitty, his personality, his gameplay is shitty, he's a shitty character, just accept it. There's a reason why there's an universal agreement that he shouldn't come back, just like Rufus and Necalli.
@@pichu4455 bro look at street fighter's vilain roster... Balrog could just rob banks, vega just wants to torment women, m bison wouldn't know what to do with the world if he ever go it, sagat is so bad at being a villain that he is now a hero I will admit that urien is cooler than fang, but I still think fang being puppeted by psycho power would be one of the most sinister bosses ever
@@fernandopires135 Or they could just create new villains, as they did with Aki, which Is way cooler than Fang by the way. I agree that Shadaloo members shouldn't come back as main villains tho. They already completed cycles.
3:20 I actually want Laura to come back to Street Fighter 6! I like to see her and Sean as playable characters and interact more just like they did briefly in Street Fighter 5.
I would love Laura to come back. When SFV came out she was the only character I liked gameplay wise. I will say i'd like for them to reapproach her character. Bimbo characters are okay but Laura has literal air in her skull. Besides we need more female grapplers
I like Laura, i always felt they shoulda did the sultry older Woman voice for her instead of the bubbily goofy vibe she has. I like her gameplay and love her go dumb moments.
Also, fun fact, she’s the only Black newcomer we got since SFIV brought the franchise back. Maybe give her a new design, but I’d be down for Laura returning.
Honestly, the reason I can give for F.A.N.G to return is simple. He's a scumbag. He's the guy you want to hate, want to see get hurt, want to see lose. He's also the guy that if you're playing him, you'll find fun finding ways to get away with random crap and every victory just fulfills your inner a-hole. He's also argueably the only guy who could keep Shadaloo alive in it's evil form. That Max hates him, and Max if you see this have fun reading this, but the mere fact he's so hated is why he should get that role. He's the guy you throw out the window, but he grabs onto the back of the bus and finds his way back inside. He's the cockroach you can't get rid of. F.A.N.G returns with some form of scar and his role is punching bag.
I feel similarly with Adon. I like it when fighting games have heel characters and loud annoying goblin man is a very natural one. Plus his gameplay is cool.
@@themrrental2509 Yeah Adon rocks. Plays differently compared to Sagat too. No reason to not bring him back. An annoying voice isn't a good enough reason. It's not even THAT bad
This is way funnier than a "who comes back" but its also a lot sadder. What if they get in and people love them, what if YOU love them, what if they become amazing. I think letting people have their fun is better.
I HOPE they bring back Guy. I've always liked his character design and moves since alpha. Let's bring back the Alpha-Counter mechanic. It's soooooo good
@@lolroflomginternet Not really. They are similar but alpha counters are done specifically after blocking a move. You essentially spend bar to punish anything that hits your gaurd. V reversal I don't believe does that. It can't be activated during blockstun.
I think this analysis and thoughts behind who should remain in their previous generations and who should come forward is awesome! Always neat to see your insight and I agree with most of those takes as well. World warriors are the heart of SF and belong there throughout the generations, while certain Alpha and Third Strike characters come forward as it makes sense for their lore, generation, and playstyle.
I also like Ed and Falke's designs. I would have probably had Falke as a main if her projectiles weren't negative edge charge. If they get rid of negative edge, I don't mind them returning at all.
@@Pazuzu- eh, we already have ibuki as his successor, and i think the black girl teased at the end of the trailer is a ninja too. still, it would only take a few new traits to make him cool.
When Adon got up on the highway and dusted himself off, a truck got over enthusiastic to give him a hug and smacked him into further oncoming traffic lol
I would love to see F.A.N.G get a redesign from a goofy character to a more brooding/creepy and intimidating character, something like what Faust did between Xrd and Strive. Hell, give him the cyborg costume as his default look.
Decapre can be saved with a different moveset and design. That gender-flip mod for SF5 has Bison look like Decapre so do that. She inherits his moves for some story reason and stick with it.
If you are gonna make a new moveset and design then its better to just make a new character no? Is it really worth to bring back Decapre? She doesnt really bring or do anything to the franchise that Cammy and The other dolls already do.
Decapre's issue is that she's a clone of a character who has little to no fleshed out backstory to begin with. I would've rather her be a new Doll or one of the existing others instead of just making another Cammy with remixed Raven ideas from SFxT
I know right, I can't understand why everyone hates him! His design and old school Chinese henchmen aesthetic are great. His fighting style is really fun to play with, and I love the goofy side of Street Fighter. Besides his personality is a ton of fun, and he is suppose to be hated as a snivelling, yet pompous lacky. In my opinion the best SF5 newcomer, besides G, and Zeku.
It's less his design and gameplay for me and just his lack of story relevance or impact in SF. Characters like G, Menat and Rashid have stellar personalities and/or story implications, but FANG's entire personality and plot relevance just revolves around riding M. Bison's coattails.
@@superbigtime While I can understand where you're getting at, I would say that in the story of SFV, F.A.N.G is a very important. He is the instigator of conflicts, and without him, the world warriors would just be sitting around twiddling their thumbs until Bison does his thing. F.A.N.G causes a call for action.
"How about we never let Fang on the bus? Rather, all the other Street Fighter characters gathering to get on the bus for SFVI called up Fang, and they purposely gave him the wrong meet up area & the wrong time. They essentially told him to go to like, an abandoned factory that is filled with drug dealing, and... Uh... Fang got murdered halfway through. So that's where I want Fang. Fang never got on the bus, we all lied to him, and he's not gonna be showing up again. That's what I personally hope for in the future." Apparently, Fang not only survived that encounter with the drug dealers at the abandoned factory, he took a level in badassery to become a much more sinister and enigmatic figure, trained an apprentice where he leaves her all the fighting this time, and is #2 in SFVI's big bad ensemble to bring back Shadaloo in his own way. This is a reminder where you should always be aware of the silly ones, folks.
Tbh I think Rufus coming back with like a completely different personality would be funny. Like he comes back and he’s this monk who’s at peace with the world but he still has the same voice Also Fang is such a ridiculous character I love him
NRS has made me think a character should never be taken off the table. I heard people speculate that Tanya would be in MKX before it happened and I looked up footage of her from old games. I thought she looked super boring and lame. Then she came out in MKX and she immediately became one of my favorite characters. Also, I liked Adon in 4, but mostly because I thought it was satisfying to beat him up with Sagat in Arcade mode.
I don't get the Adon hate :( like, it's a great representation of the hubris of a young, crazy competitor. His world view kinda shatters with his ~hero~ sagat getting rekt. Like if you grew up loving Michael Jordan thinking he's this immortal figure and then he gets beat. A childish twisted reaction to that with a dash of psycho
@@UsoTeaMor not wrong man. He fills a niche that isn't filled personality-wise, which is so much better than 8th boring shoto - something actually unique. And gameplay-wise the potential as a mobile aggressive fighter with the extra combo insanity they added late to 5 would be so fun. Jaguar toothing links and charge elbows, etc. Smdh
@@michaelsaunders1269 What I really like about Adon is that he is a cocky jerk but in his Alpha ending, he's offered to join Shadaloo by Bison and he rejects the offer. Showing that he's not evil, just an arrogant loudmouth. He's my personal favorite male SF character and I really hope he returns for 6. It's funny cuz my fav shotos are Sakura, Dan, and Sean. Each are not that serious and it's refreshing. I don't hate serious characters but it feels like people only want those nowadays and that would be pretty boring. I hope 6 is more fast paced than 5 was that way Adon will fit right in. His lack of a fireball doesn't even feel that bad with his attacks that get you right in the opponent's face. Yeah I can't wait for his return. Glad the god of Muay Thai has his fans. He's great.
@@UsoTeaMor Yessir all your points are fax my friend. Dude just wants to show everyone muay thai is the best, and he is the best, and hey get rekt weak noobs lol ez game yuck weak people suck lmao. Like he's so fun cause he's just a cocky fuck and if you win you feel sick, and if you fuck up and lose it's funny as hell getting humbled by your friends haha. Fingers crossed we can spam a taunt from the God himself in the future. He deserves another storyline.
@@michaelsaunders1269 yeah it's great. So what if he's a jerk? It's fiction. It's fun to have characters like that that you can root for. Know what I'm saying? Plus Urien's about the same in terms of character. Inferior to his brother and is an arrogant loud mouth. And people seemed to like him more in 5 than they initially did in 3. Yeah it's okay if you win or lose with him because of his character's personality. Like with Dan. It's impressive if you win but understandable if you lose. Yeah I hope they bring him back again. His 4 appearance was basically just his Alpha story once again. 4 did that with most of the characters. Nothing new, just a repeat of what we already knew about them.
Nah man, Adon is really cool imo. I've loved his playstyle and moveset ever since Alpha 2. I always thought he was a cooler muay thai character than Sagat. Sagat is just a big slow turtle that throws fireballs while Adon actually moves and fights like a muay thai fighter.
SF characters are often tokenized but I feel like characters like Kolin and Laura were just too much “people from a place” as opposed to real characters, both in their appearance of personalities.
Unpopular option but I think Maki is the Hottest Women in Fighting Games of all time so I definitely want her to come back. Eagle would be a great edition too because he is the most Handsome of them all. If they want to bring all 3 characters that "Fight With Sticks" well, I don't like Rolento so just please leave him out. I play a lot of Capcom vs SNK 2 so yeah that's my go to cross over game. A lot of guys thirst for Morrigan or Mai because of the countless Rule 34, SFM Hentai Animations, and Doujinshi Manga they have but to each their own I suppose... ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Rufus was a GIANT disappointment. He was originally going to be a character named "King Cobra," who was a rival of Ken and a much cooler concept, but then they scrapped him HALF WAY through recording his dialogue and then redesigned him until he became Rufus. Also, Necalli wasn't the worst character; he was actually pretty fun in terms of gameplay but they ruined this character. That Torrent of Power transformation in SF6 would be awesome to see.
F.A.N.G is weird and I too have never bothered to play him, but I really like playing against him, very unique playstyle and design. And thus I would not mind that he returns. You know weird can often be just a bad term for unique.
Nah, if they're setting up the MMA thing, bring Adon back. His whole thing is rising to the top, perfect for SF6. Also going King of Dinosaurs route with El Fuerte could be cool too. A Gen type character with other Kung fu styles instead of snake/crane.
but he's fucking boring. also there are a shit tone of characters who's thing is rising to the top. its a fighting game, thats like 98% of all the motivations
Fighters I would love to have return in SF6 split into series: SF: Ryu, Adon, Birdie, Gen SFII: Chun-Li, Zangief, Dhalsim, Guile, Balrog, Vega, M.Bison SFA: Karin, Sakura, Rose, Sodom SF3: Dudley, Elena, Makoto, Sean, Yun & Yang (but only with Max's tag switch idea) SF4: C.Viper, Juri SFV: G, Rashid, Menat
1. Where is Ken?? You know, the guy who's the main rival+friend of Ryu and also has been in every official street fighter game alongside Ryu. Not even Chun Li was in as many street fighter games as Ken. 2. Gen literally died, idk why people keep mentioning him 3. People are sleeping on Gouken 4. Bison's arc is sleeping rn, I doubt he, Balrog, or Vega are returning 5. Where is Sagat 6. Where is necro 😢
@@blueicydasani4543 I'm a bit tired of having too many Shotos. Ken was good as Ryu's rival but other than that, he doesn't add much to progress any story. I chose only Ryu, Sean and Sakura as the shotos because I don't think their stories are finished. My roster helps develop or progress the lore without too many ways to deviate. They are not just fighters that I like the most. With Gen, just a mention that killed him off screen still leaves the possibility of him returning in some fashion. Even Nash came back from being dead so anything could happen.
@@jherrenor i didn't see this reply til now Ken's returning and he's going through it. I'm also going to comment on the fact that calling Ken out for not contributing to the story is kind of inaccurate. You can't say he doesn't contribute to the story and then say you want Sean. That's contradictory. He's also not just Ryu's rival... he's his best friend. And he contributes to boss fights just as much as any other relevant sf2 world warrior.
@@jherrenor There's also the fact that Sakura's story is exactly just finished. Her sfv story mode is a clear indicator, whereas Ken now has these crazy leaks where he's about to go through an absurd amount of character development
Max “The Shoto” Milian has the nerve to call Able “vanilla” and shit on most of my favorite SF characters, this man clearly loves being an OLD MAAAANNNN!!!🤣 But seriously I do honestly disagree with about 77% of Max’s opinion so I’m bout to smash that like
I know, right? Dude just wants the same archetype for all the characters. Generic "cool" dude. Boring af. His picks were so bad and if a roster were up to him, it would be so generic and boring
Seeing people like Necalli and F.A.N.G getting removed just assures my hunch that max doesn’t understand character variety in a fighting game and would just play a game with all the shotos and nothing else and think “this is healthy for fighting games…”
Problem with FANG was how useless he is instead of being threatening like other villains. Comparing him to similar characters he's like a punkish Waluigi. A joke villain would work but FANG being Sagat's replacement just didn't work. Necali just gets trumped by Akuma.
I really liked Necali at his reveal, but then they made him some weird ass spirit of hated and killed him with power of friendship without him throwing a punch. Dude coulda been a dope Pillar-Man type villain but he’s just a jobber mid boss. The pool noodle hair that explode in every direction with every step didn’t help either.
I think what you guys are missing is that in the grand scheme of things, story in fighting games doesn’t matter. The next game could make anyone the best or worst character with one writing change as it has with all our favorite characters the job and un-job for the sake of the plot. Roster variety is important to get as many people into the games as possible and have a character they can resonate with. I only started street fighter with 3rd strike because of Necro and Q, 5 because of F.A.N.G solely. If all the characters in a fighting game catered to one person, if has failed.
Hugo, Rufus, Rolento, Decapre, El Fuerte, Hakan, Seth, Falke, Necalli, Fang, Necro, T. Hawk, Remy, and Ingrid, are characters I'd easily leave behind. Others that I think are meh but have cool redesign potential are Abel, Adon, C. Viper (yes I've never been a big fan of Viper sorry), and Kolin. Everyone else I either really want or I'm cool with
It’s sad because Abigail is a really cool reference and a concept. He was based off a metal icon’s album title, King Diamond’s Abigail album. King Diamond was so huge and influential in Japan that they made a street fighter character based on the Abigail album.
