I miss dudley so much, he's such a fun character. And having the muscle distortion in SF6 would fit him so good, just imagine it on this absolute brick unit.
Sean and Makoto highly deservers come back, he can bring some good mechanics with interesting twist, these two needs more love, they highly deserve it. thank you for seeing so much potential both story and gameplay, Sean mix of ken and bit of Ryu after him losing to him in third strike by God, he would be fun and cool as hell Edit: hot damn, thank y'all
I’m telling you there is no one I want more back in street fighter than Q. That man was so mysterious and so much fun. Makoto may always be my girl who I will always play, but Q was just such an interesting character that I want more of him.
that's a lot like Zeku's gimmick, and they already have a fair bit in common. I'd be down for just kinda mashing all that together. CVS2 kinda did that with Yun being playable and Yang appearing in a few moves, but I'd be open to them mixing together
I wouldn’t say it’s an incredible idea, Yun and Yang already are one character, his name is Gen. Yang and Yun in Street Fighter 3 Third Strike were basically Alpha Gen split into two different characters. It would however be cool if Yang and Yun as one character had a tag mechanic along the lines of Marvel vs Capcom Infinity.
@@DIOBrando-ij2bp Or they could play like Akira/Daigo and the more "popular" one will be the playable character and the other will be the call in they may even do something similar to one of Roses new moves where she has that Astral projection/ Soul illusion thing (it's called Genei Jin or V-trigger II) that fights with her and does every move she does causing double damage i can see them implementing the mechanic if they won't put them both in.
same, I'd also just like them to finally offically connect they're fighting games and add more not street fighter characters, like a Darkstalkers rep like Morrigan or Demtri since they have been thrown in sfv twice, and also some more like someone from power stone and more rival schools as well. not saying we need a lot, I'd just like to see atleast one of these show up
Yes please! Ever since I learned that Final Fight is incorporated with Street Fighter, I always felt that Final Fight characters have become a staple in the Street Fighter franchise and should stay forever. Cody, Guy, Rolento, Sodom, Poison, Hugo, Abigail, etc. At least one or two of these guys should be in every Street Fighter game. Better yet, more, if not all of them if possible. As for Rival Schools, I never played the game, but I welcome them with open arms. Keep expanding the Street Fighter universe. Akira was nice, although I haven't played her yet, she looks cool and I wouldn't mind if she returned along with someone else from that game.
@@Hyper_Light_Grifter And Mike Haggar. I think it's about time Haggar made his first appearance in a Street Fighter game. Yes, I am aware of Marvel vs Capcom, but I don't know of that really counts. Plus, I can imagine Haggar's appearance being like a badass old dude kind of like Heihachi, Gen, or obviously Oro, but as a wrestler unlike those three. I think that would be pretty cool. His gameplay can also be a little bit based on his appearances in MvC just to make him stand out from other grapplers/wrestlers like Hugo, Zangief, or Abigail.
I really miss Makoto, Dudley, Adon, and Fei Long. In terms of returning characters I definitely want Juri and Alex to come back. Alex especially since he was the main character from 3rd strike and I still think they need to develop him since nothing really happened to him in 5. Edit: also If there is a far casting wish to make, I want Maki in a street fighter game. She is so fucking cool having played her in CvS2.
@@Bubbabyte99 Maki was added to SFA3 Max after appearing in CvS2. Her model and movement were ported from CvS2 to MAX, plus MAX came out 8 years after the original SFA3 did. Same thing with Eagle and Yun btw.
She only appeared in two games and one crossover spin-off I really wouldn’t consider her a mainstay. Plus out of all the newcomers in SF4, her Viper and Abel are the only ones that are interesting and play a major part in the main story and other character stories
I agree that Dee Jay could use some kind of rework if he was to return. Just keep his smile. It's my favorite thing about him. I smile back whenever I look at him. Dee Jay without a big white toothy grin is like M. Bison without a big white toothy grin. Just thinking about it in my mind, it doesn't look right.
I agree too. I want Dee Jay to return. Hes my main in Street Fighter next to Ryu, Fei Long, Ken, and Dudley. He’s my spirit animal because we both smile🤣🤣👊🏾👊🏾
I wanna see Poison and Hugo with the tag team mechanics that you mentioned for Yun and Yang. Their fighting styles complement each other and would cover their weaknesses perfectly
I immediately thought of Sean and Luke being rivals when Luke was announced as "the future of street fighter". I'm really hoping SF6 is a big sequel to 3
8:36 normally I agree with you on this point about dead characters but personally I feel like they are trying to move forward in the timeline. If Bison is in then I could see him being like a nightmare geese situation. But canon wise it would be really unsatisfying if he came back after how they hyped up the death in 5
Bring him back but change him, like story wise have him depowered or dying and have it reflect in his gameplay. Like change certain moves because he doesnt have the power to perform them correctly maybe
He would just be DLC. It's as simple as that lol. No need to make it a story thing but like you mentioned, he would probably just be a ghost haunting fighters or dolls.
Max: "I want Capcom to make Sodom an American weeb that speaks broken Japanese and goes hard on Japan culture." Translation: "I want Chipp Zanuff from Guilty Gear in Street Fighter."
If Capcom was smart, a lot of the roster in 6 needs to be returning characters from Third Strike. Since it takes place much later in the timeline, and SF6 is supposedly "the future of the franchise" they'd be insane not to have Third Strike members come back. Edit: For the record, after reading the comments (damn, y'all! XD) I when I said Third Strike, I meant the cast of all versions of SF3 up to that version. Just because I said the latest version, doesn't mean that it I meant only the newest cast additions. Really, who does that?
Third Strike only introduced Makoto, Q, Remy and Twelve, so that's like one character I'd particularly care to see back. The whole Street Fighter 3 series though, now you got some bangers to choose from.
@@clvago I mean I feel like OP and pretty much everybody when they bring up 3rd Strike as far as character options is referring to the whole bundle of SFIII, the same as Max didn't bother distinguishing between the various versions of IV and the characters that each of them brought. Honestly feels like it would kind of be stupid _to_ do that.
Luke's story mode in Street Fighter V felt like Guile passing the torch onto him. If that's a central theme of SF6, Luke, Sean, and Sakura should really be the three most important characters to its story.
That would be interesting if a lot of the characters were pretty much h disciples. R.Mika could be Zangief's Li- Fen could be Chun Li's Dhalsim's son could join, And of course Balrog's would be Ed.
@@phabiorules Yes that's exactly my kind of thinking with this SF6 title. I assume it will be an Old school Vs New school type scenario some classics returning and some new characters with their sidekicks/protégés to add to yours like: Sean for Ken Sakura for Ryu Menat for Rose Ibuki for Guy R. Mika for Zangief Nash or Remy for Guile
I preferred the Guile and Charlie/Nash dynamic even Remy from 3rd Strike would be a cool contender to come back and take on that kind of stoic, moral high composed role and see Luke more as being paired with Ryu as a kinda unorthodox paring as they are both different and there fightings styles directly juxtapose each other Ryu's formal martial art vs Lukes wild and undefined MMA style. This would then push Ryu to take on a mentor role turning him into the new Gouken style character that fits his natural progression and have Luke as his "Student" as Sakura seems to be stepping away from fighting to focus on a family like Gohan from DBZ/DBS so someone needs to fill that role
@@samuelemmanuel5150 I do still believe a Luke and Ryu paring would be far better but elaborate on how Guile would be better. I think it's a cool thing to see Luke and Ryu as teased by the trailer these characters will have some interaction/importance in SF6 story and like i said the paring would help Ryu take a step forward to that Gouken role he's intended to take and their fighting styles directly juxtapose each other it would have some cool story implications with the Old school vs New school approach Traditional vs Modern
Yun and Yang being the same character is an amazing idea. How I imagine it working is that you could press Kx3 in neutral to switch between the two, or spend a bar of meter with Px3 to do a tagging uppercut that lets the incoming brother follow-up with a juggle, kinda like in SFxT.
How would that work in world tour though? Maybe one of the twins shows up out of nowhere? Or whichever master is set to come in as an assist? I wouldn't even mind if Bosch just showed up as your tag partner, with or without cardboard box.
If viper doesn’t come back I’m gonna fuckin flip. Already pissed me off with her being in so many character intro and ending stories in SFV and she never made it into the game.
19:00 In Third Strike there’s the special intro for Yang and Yun here there both synchronously back flip into the stage mirroring each other. I think if you did a play on that and expanded it it could work.
I want to say that Gouken's being represented by the new take on Ryu. I'm actually hoping that his gameplay style reflects that, and maybe Sakura can step up and take on a hybrid Ryu's former playstyle as a successor since she's just as driven
I felt like Sakura's story conclusion in SFV kinda determined that she isn't really all that hyped about fighting anymore, and is focusing on starting a family. If any new characters come out, I'd hope that Sakura's direction would be to crush on them or work together with them to develop chemistry, to follow up on finding a future suitor for her family dream.
Yeah i agree it's about time Ryu takes on Goukens role and while this is happening Sakura would have become the new Ryu so to speak and Sean becomes much more competent rivalling Ken as that was the initial plan i or i always thought it to be.
@@JaceAce22 Yeah i thought it was cute that Sakura had a crush on Ryu before and she eventually would have outgrown it but with the recent SF5 ending this won't be happening. I would have liked her to focus on her training rather than start a family she would have become the new Ryu so to speak and Sean becomes much more competent rivalling Ken establishing a new rivalry between him/her possibly romance (of topic but the pairing reminds me of Baki's Kozue and Mohammad Alai Jr. ) i've always shipped these to and can see it much more as the age gap between her and Ryu is too large.
@@JaceAce22 True! And if anything, it'd be neat if Sean ushered in a new Shoto style, with Ken and Akuma as the "familiar". Usher in a true new leg in Street Fighter and be bold like SF3 was
@@mbphilipblack8993 Part of her drive was that she was inspired by Ryu's show of strength when he saved her from a mugging or whatevs, but yeah, I do keep forgetting that Sakura's desire is in part a high-school crush on Ryu. Which isn't 'as' weird given Ryu's age being about 19-20ish in Alpha. But as the gap got wider because Capcom is bad at continuity with Sakura being 18 by SF5 and Ryu in his, like, late 30s? I was hoping that it would turn into an actual drive. But they leaned into the opposite direction, which... I mean, guess it's fairly unique in the SF world for one of the series staples to actually settle down and be a family man, but still. I was hoping that Sakura would be Ryu's successor, but eh, it be how it beee
I know it's a hot take, but I would love to see Elena back (bias, she's my main in SFIII). There's plenty we can explore with her: she likes to dance via Capoeira, make friends, preserve the environment, has healing powers, is a cultural exchange student, and practitioner of medicine. She's also the princess of her tribe. I could also see a Josuke Crazy Diamond playstyle - where she heals you, but then you take more damage than before, or an alternate win condition where if she heals you enough: she wins. Really lean into that super that people hate, but twist it. Of course I already like her playstyle, character design, animations, and happy-go-lucky friendly personality, but I'd like to see more from her too.
You know what? I think G should be the villain of the next game, he has the charisma and the mystery that none of us know if he's good or bad. It would be cool for all the characters to be chilling, with G as president, and as the story progresses G is discovered to creation of something and he fights both the new and old characters alike: Luke, Shawn, Ryu, Chun, etc.
If we need a Final Fight ninja, let’s bring back Maki, Guy and Zeku had their time, and could still show up later if they wanted to, but Maki needs some love.
He's the best newcomer from SF5 didn't really like Laura and felt her familial tie to Sean was very forced and felt unauthentic and she plays to similar to blanka however she's a lot better and alright but would come under Rashid and i like the Arabic fighter's inclusion some more representation as Street Fighter is supposed to be about "World Warriors" so both of these characters should come back to keep that concept alive
Rashid is a character who I like, but I hope they change him a bit, since I thought he was pretty annoying in regards to his personality and playstyle.
@@mbphilipblack8993 He means he doesn’t agree. Just like how you guys are saying “he’s the best new character in the game” but not explaining. Honestly, I like G for his style, hype, one liners, and uniqueness overall. He was good, but not game breaking. Never was big on the early Rashid gameplay, because they literally made him op. Movement, rolling under fireballs, impossible to corner, and a bunch of other things. Yeah, totally different from now, but it soured my view. I’d be fine with him, assuming they didn’t make him OP out of the box again, but there’s a lot I’d rather see before him.
I'll admit, I'm the big weirdo who wants Ed, Falke, and Decapre to come back. But otherwise I agree with most of what was said here with a few extra points. 1) Instead of Nash, bring Remy back... and give him Nash's moves. That way you can keep the character dead but still have someone who fills that same play style (and continue the meta joke of Remy having filled that role in 3 to replace Guile). 2) Makoto's scarf was a tech demo for the way you could animate in Third Strike's engine, so having her show off how you can animate fighting game characters in the RE Engine makes a LOT of sense. So yeah, big agree on wanting her back even if just for that. 3) If this is an attempt to keep moving the timeline forward... I kinda wanna see a new character who's the actual genetic kid of a classic character. Like Mel or Guile's daughter being old enough to start getting into Street Fighting themselves, or maybe it's the son/daughter of an Alpha character who hasn't been back in a while and the reason we haven't seen said character since then is because they were too busy raising said kid. A legitimate legacy character, as it were.
I would prefer to see Geki II for SF6 instead of always Vega. The reason why he is called Geki II is because the original Geki from SF1 died. Capcom confirmed that.
I'd say Dudley, Makoto, C Viper, and a version of 12 are garanteed to be in the next game. Ryu and Chun are already confirmed to be in every game regardless, and we already know Luke is gonna be in it too for returners I'd say Ken, Juri, Sean, Akuma, a version of Kage or Evil Ryu, Cammy, Seth, atleast either Ed or Falke, Rashid, Zangief, Sakura,Sagat and Dhalsim are garanteed to join regardless tho, dlc or base.
I know is kinda impossible but I really want to see some EX characters reincorporated again. Imagine having Skullomania, Blair, Cracker Jack, Darun and Garuda on Street Fighter once again
Give me Makoto with her Geese Howard looking outfit from the SF4 concept art. She was such a fun character and kinda broke the trend of female fighters being delicate and agile by being a clunky tomboy who punched harder than a grown man. Give her a visual design tweak and I reckon she could work really well going forward.
When Viper comes back, I really want her to keep some MvC3 stuff she had, especially burn kick Feints. Obviously toned down for SF but still lean into the flashy mixup lady she was designed to be.
Yang and Yun could be on screen at the same time like dramatic battle (or is it reverse dramatic battle?), but the special move you use determines who comes to the front. If you use Tourouzan, Yang goes to front, if you use You Hou, Yun jumps in front. Whoever is in front is who you’re controlling for normals. Supers could be double team moves.
I hope Makoto will come back. That's the one character I feel strongly about. now to react about some of the other, A reworked Dee Jay could fit just right in Street Fighter VI direction. Zeku doesn't necessarily "have" to come back, but it would be very easy to bring him back. This would be a stance character if they want to include one, and story-wise they could do something with him setting up his new martial art movement, etc. would definitely be cool if Sean came back, but not treated as a joke character (gameplay wise, I'm fine with character having comedic traits). And while I do think G is cool, and agree that having both him and Q as the mysterious guy we don't know anything about would be redundant... But I think with Gill as the main Vilain, Q would make the most sense? Really like the idea about Yun and Yang. anyway, I hope Makoto will be here.
I just want Q back so bad. There's this weird stigma that people have that we have G so that's the same as Q which is just insane. Not only have they NEVER been confirmed to have anything to do with each other, even if they are the same character they play so different from each other. I just want the brutal unrefined brawler style that Q had back in Third Strike.
Ah, a fellow Q enjoyer. It's sad to see folks dismiss Q completely just because G exists and has some similar animations and a one letter name. I always preferred the more clumsy, physical and unrefined style of Q to the more showman-esque and elemental/magical style of G.
If Street Fighter 6 has a heat mechanic as shown in the teaser, Makoto would definitely fit well in the next game. When she turns red, she'll be streaming from the "heat". Crimson Viper should come back. I feel she'll have a stylist move set when Capcom gives her new moves. I want to see El Fuerte come back, he's a funny yet unique character that Capcom needs to add more flavor.
I preferred the Guile and Charlie/Nash dynamic heck even Remy from 3rd Strike would be a cool contender to come back and take on that kind of stoic, moral high composed role and see Luke more as being paired with Ryu as a kinda unorthodox paring as they are both different and there fightings styles directly juxtapose each other Ryu's formal martial art vs Lukes wild and undefined MMA style. This would then push Ryu to take on a mentor role turning him into the new Gouken style character that fits his natural progression and have Luke as his "Student" as Sakura seems to be stepping away from fighting to focus on a family like Gohan from DBZ/DBS so someone needs to fill that role
I would love to see Sean return, yeah. The back wall backboard idea would be really cool to see what can come from that. Imagine throwing a high arching basketball, do a quick combo, leap into the air and do a front flip kick that fires the basketball strait down that bounces the opponent into the air to continue your combo. While if you just do that kick downwards without the ball, it just lays them flat on the ground. Just something I think would be a lot of fun to see different properties being effected because his basketball was used in a combo
I want Fei Long, DeeJay, Sean, Elena and Abel or Guy to come back in SF6. I assume it will be a Old school Vs New school type scenario some classic/returning favourites and some new characters or sidekicks/ protégés like Sean for Ken, Sakura for Ryu, Menat for Rose, Ibuki for Guy, R. Mika for Zangief and Nash or Remy for Guile
@@gatfatf Ibuki and Guy are definitely not affiliated in any way. There's official artwork of some of the ninjas from Ibuki's clan/group and they dress just like her, while Maki, another Bushinryu clan member, dresses very similarly to Guy.
I'm very confident that Oro will make a return given how the story says that Ryu has been training under him in SF3. Also in terms of how a mix of Yun and Yang should work is basically as a loveletter to MVC where one character is on the field and they switch using a super-armored kick. To cut down on some work if needed they can share supers and win poses etc.
how much time do you think they put into creating the initial teaser? If the answer is a reasonable amount of time and effort, I think it would be neat if they revealed characters in similar trailers. Like have R.Mika and Zangief sparing, Cody and Dudley arguing over tea, etc.
Makoto has to since she is an SFIII character and supposedly SF6 is going to be a continuation so she definetly has to return. As for Guy, I just want to see where he was during SFV and where was he when Cody became mayor. Plus, I feel like Zeku already had his fun in V as his replacement and Guy has to return. Although, I think it would be ten times better if both Guy and Zeku returned since Zeku did have some unique stuff that Guy never had so I can see Zeku coming back along with Guy. That is if age doesn't get the best of him. But it is more than likely Guy will return.
@@crashingblow3753 Why not being Maki? Guy and Zeku were in IV and V respectively, VI could have Maki to still have a Final Fight ninja, but give love to someone who hasn’t been around in a while.
Omg that's a really cool idea ! Yang and Yun being one character could be sick even though I really prefer Yun for his design and gameplay I feel like that would be a good way to not have them take the spot of another character. Because they are like Ryu and Ken, it would feel weird now to only add ONE right ?
I just want Alex again. He was my first SF main in 3S and I just like his move set the most, because he's a grappler that has multiple ways of getting in range. I'm not good at 2D fighters but with Alex I always feel like I can get into the groove.
I stood up when Max said Dee Jay BIG YES I just love the positive energy that the guy has while also being a low key BEAST in the lore, I'd love to see him get more love and complexity.
Based Dan take. They took a classic beloved joke character. Kept what made him charming but made him more than just "he's a shoto but sucks". I want him in every street fighter from here out
In my own personal list, I also wanted Sean to definitely return, but my personal idea for a rivalry wouldn't be with Luke, but Mel, Ken's son. If this were to take place after 3rd Strike somehow, imagine a young adult Mel, who learned to fight like his dad, being friendly rivals with Ken's pupil, like the Gouken to their Ryu and Ken.
Yea please bring back Sodom ! He a character that capcom shud of brung back a longggggg time ago ! & yes bring back Sean ! He shud of been back too & based on tha type of game sf6 is wit tha urban esk type of feel , he would b a perfect fit for tha game , plus we got basketball parry in sf6 & he was tha one that was orginally tha one throwing tha basketballs & thats someone they definitely shud use for tha game honestly ,
Yes yes yes. Sean, Eagle, Dudley, DJ remixed, Gouken, Twelve, Elena. Mainly Sean and Dudley. The idea with the ball extender is legit. I think you should be able to bounce it off any of the 4 corners of the screen though. I also wanna see street fighter alpha air combat return as well.
I have an idea for Makoto if she ever comes back in SF6. All 3 of her specials will be her CA. Her Tanden-Renki activates, press a button and she grabs her opponent and chokes them, staggering them. Then part of her Abare Tosanami happens, and finish it off with her Seichusen-Godanzuki.
I agree on G, he definitely should and most likely will return. On the other hand, I'm a Q fanboy and I fear we will never see him again other than as a costume for G.
I'd like to see Poison return. It would be a missed opportunity for Capcom to not iterate further on her new fighting style considering her SFxT/SF4 iterations were arguably shoto.
I want Gen to come back somehow. For a character that has beaten Akuma they did him dirty in SFV by killing him off screen. But since we only know that from the accounts of one character, it may not have been true. In fact, not only do I want him back, I think it might be cool if they had him as a Grandmaster final boss for some of the fighters.
I never played any SF game but when I was looking at SF3 matches Dudley really stood out. So sick. His sprite intros, his theme, the rose taunt setup, the voice lines. Such a great character. Hope he is in with DLC.
I'd love the idea of the twins as one character. Yun could jump in on his skateboard Yang could either roll or divekick in. Maybe have certain moves that are switch moves. The Idea of being able to start a genei-jin combo into a seiei enbu combo sounds so sick. Also I know I'm in the minority but I really want Remy in SF6
I REEEEEEEALLY want to see Dean from Final Fight 3 come back, Lucia got 5, Dean should get 6, he has so much potential, electric attacks, buff and intimidating, not quite as imposing as Haggar, but jacked enough to know he means business, that would honestly sell the game to me, just to play that badass again
Would be cool. Though I'm a Lucia boi so I'd just say give both, go even more ham on the Final Fight since they don't wanna actually make more lol. That's SF's brother, anyone who complains can go watch a franchise history video or whatever
His take in Yun and Yang is basically Hisui And Kohaku in Melty Blood Type Lumina, they have their own movesets but one of them is replaced with assists from the other sister and they swap in and out by high-fiveing
I'm so glad to hear that Max is 100% on board that the fact that Ken is coming back while the other content creators I've watched believe that they're not sure that he's coming back simply because Luke has a similar personality and he's the face of SF6
There would be a riot if Ken wasn't in that's like Mortal Kombat with Sub Zero or Gulity Gear without Ky Ken might not be the face of Street Fighter but he is the the 2nd half of it
In SFIII New Gen Ryu was actually supposed to be the only returning character, but they added Ken after cuz there was an extra slot left I will be shocked if he’s not included
Man I just want Cody to come back. I love what they did with him thematically and stylistically, now I just need it to be in a game I actually wanna play.
Max seems to forget that SF rosters usually always follow the story, this will be a new era, there will be a new boss. Ryu killed Bison, literally erased his existence.
Because no one knows SF6 story then no one can say Bison won't appear because of "the story". Anything can be done to have him in the game in some way at all so dismissing the chance is rather silly. Its a wait and see situation for everyone.
You cannot kill Bison, you can destroy his body but his essence will move to a new host. For Ryu it was the most important day of his life when he "killed" Bison, for Bison it was Tuesday.
The characters I want to see and come back in SF 6 is Chun li , Nash, Rashid, juri, gill, menat, urien plus have these featured characters: dudley, felong, decapre, Elena, oni, evil Ryu, c viper, deejay, gouken
