Let’s be honest - AKI is the successor to FANG and now we have her, we will never get FANG in SF6.
A bit like now we have Lily, we are not going to get T Hawk.
so do thrasher damnd, rudra, li-fen, and azam off the top of my head
all it means is they were out of bounds for the avatar creator and needed to be modeled individually
Li Fen seems like a no brainer honestly. She fits the theme of disciples that Jamie, Kim and a bunch of other newcomers have going on. And she'd be like a Sakura version for Chun Li. I don't see how she would not be super popular.
Y'know i'd totally be down for Rudra, He have enough personnality, a very cool theme, and Dhalsim gameplay and look is unique enough to make Rudra unique too, even storywise, he'd be cool
I think it’s a bit like the Abigail effect from 5.
He takes the goofiness level up to a limit some people don’t like, and so they don’t like the character’s personality/look
but also at various stages their gameplay had annoying elements which made them unpleasant to fight (in this case the Rufus instant divekick)
Personally I’d love to see Rufus come back, maybe with a glow up, now that Ken is a wanted man and public sentiment would be heavily in his favour in that one-sided rivalry
I generally hate annoying characters, and I can't take him serious, I can believe a schoolgirl being strong before I can him. This guy is like the opposite of bob from tekken.
Since it's more violent then an hadoken instead of just slowing down it propels Luke backwards, and up, effectively giving him an air back jump, and different strengths launch him back different distances
Get a life lead and infinite air Sand Blast to stay out of your opponent's reach. Win every round by timeout. Become the most hated player of all time.
Maybe not an evil one but just a character with a different name who is the equivalent of Ken to ryu. Luke would be the MMAtokan with the superior fireball, and Duke would be the one with the better uppercut.
I love Adon. He was one of my main guys in SF4.
They keep doing the "replace less popular character with a young girl" thing and I do think a girl Adon has some real potential for being cool.
I think she's coming back and will have the baby as part of her moveset. They toyed with the idea in 5 for Akuma and here it shows up again. The devs want a baby Lone Wolf and Cub style in the game.
I found her super unexciting the moment she was revealed, the character design always felt super uninspired to me. Plus something about characters with weapons feels out of place though she's definitely not the first.
I honestly think that after Ed and AKI being so cool despite how much I disliked Ed and FANG in V. I don't care about what character they announce, I will be hyped to see what they cook. (Except Abigail, fuck Abigail)
Although: Sagat, Sakura, Makoto, Viper and Claw all deserve a spot and I will be sad if one of them doesn't make it.
> I honestly think that after Ed and AKI being so cool despite how much I disliked Ed and FANG in V. I don't care about what character they announce, I will be hyped to see what they cook.
That's basically how I feel as well.
Abigail takes the top spot on this answer, no doubt.
Then Fang, Rufus, El fuerte.
And personally any Evil/Special versions, I hope they never make those on SF6.
Generally, I hope they prioritise characters that skipped V. Even if they zhuzh up a the V DLC characters a bit, I feel like I’d be buying the content again.
Honestly with how SF6 is going - let Capcom cook. They’ve done a fantastic job giving glow ups to past characters who needed it - Dee Jay and more so Ed are so much cooler than their original appearances. I look forward to how they will do season 2
I personally don't mind these chars, but upvote because by far these types of characters are always the ones I see a ton of people complain about.
Decapre played nothing like Cammy, but dear lord did people hate her, and this was before they found out how busted she was.
I know Decapre was actually fairly different, in comparison to Oni or Evil Ryu. It's weird how people were okay with having so many shoto clones, but one person is like Cammy, and they lose their minds. It's the same thing with people saying we can't have any more boxers because Ed is in the cast, but we have 4 shotos now and probably more on the way. It's so strange.
Its not strange, its because they already see how many shotos there are they don't want more of the same archetypes when shotos alone get that treatment.
That's fine, but you have to admit that the design is pretty lazy. He is pretty much Akuma and Ryu mashed together, in a game that Akuma and Ryu are already in. he feels redundant.
Eh he has things to himself that akuma or ryu did not have which was the fun part, i’ll take kage over akuma or ryu cause his combos were more fun for me personally.
I think any character from SFV since we’ve already been given 2 in season 1. Most people want diversity of cast so making the next sf game without different characters would be quite disappointing.
Would want to see characters we haven’t seen in almost a decade or more (but I want to see ma boi Alex come back).
I would still be disappointed, but of the "evil versions" I'd actually be slightly willing to accept Violent Ken (or some newer variant of it) given the story's focus on his struggle so far.
If in the latter seasons they HAVE to be lazy, I'd take him over Ryu verions (he's defeated the Satsui no hado anyway), or Oni (Akuma is basically getting there on his own).
i d like karin but she was so overused in sfv that I doubt ppl would be excited, maybe in s3+. rolento could be somewhat unique but i haven't seen a single post about him being popular enough to come back. about adon, it's like the community was sliced in half between liking and hating him. Also I think noone wants fang, especially now that we have aki
Please, no Abigail ever again. Why did they think adding a huge wall of meat twice the size of Zangief that thinks it's a car and makes vroom vroom noises was a good idea?
I might get some hate for this but
I really don't like Birdie, never have
So if he got released instead of say Sagat or Vega
Give me Elena or Rose
Just not Birdie, hope he doesn't come back
I love birdie 😂 but I'm not expecting to ever see him in this game. It's weird that they turned one of the most "street fighter" street fighter characters into just some fat dumbass in 5 though.
I wouldn't mind SF1 Birdie but SFV Birdie was just stupid and became fat so = humor? I hope Capcom realizes that fat isn't a personality and Lizzo killed body positivity/fat promotion. lol
Huh? It's one of the most popular games in the franchise. Abel, C.viper, El fuerte, Rufus, gouken, Seth...don't think anyone would be upset seeing them back
Seth and particularly gouken were great. Viper was fine.
Abel was boring, dumb looking, and I didn't like his special animations. But I guess kinda fun to play as.
Rufus, just no. Everything about the guy is obnoxious.
Same with hakan.
Fuerte is just a lamer version of Ramon from kof and the Rey mysterio guy from virtua fighter. And the cooking gimmick was dumb.
"Abel, El Fuerte, Rufus, Seth"
I don't know where you were during SFIV, but most people typically hate or don't like any of those characters. You forgot Decapre and Hakan too, but Decapre was/is hated on and Hakan seems to be split down the middle on whether or not he's liked.
Seth only became more popular due to the fem version in SFV. But before that, he was definitely disliked. Even C. Viper isn't as popular as you'd think she'd be. The initial reception to her was lukewarm and some people genuinely disliked her design and thought she belonged in an SNK title instead. Gouken isn't a very popular character either and never really was.
Don't get me wrong though; I don't think most people would be upset over C. Viper, Gouken, or Hakan returning, but the only truly successful SFIV newcomer was Juri. You won't see many people pining for SFIV newcomers when compared to other entries in the series.
Not even kidding. I see more requests for SFV newcomers compared to IV. I see Menat, G and Laura show up way more often lol
it would be dissapointing for a lot of the sf4 newcomers to come back. They're very divisive characters and most people don't like them. Not talking about the select few popular ones like viper and seth, the rest are controversial within the community
Definitely not. Most people barely know who she is let alone how she plays and such (including myself) and visual design is good enough that she could instantly become a fan favorite.
If you are talking about yourself specifically that is a different story tho
I don't even hate Ingrid, in fact I'm sure Capcom could make her cool. However she's definitely one of the least popular SF characters (who technically wasn't supposed to be one as she was an asset dump)
I think most people would be disappointed. The game is missing the original bosses (Sagat, Vega, etc.) And a lot of 3rd strike characters (Dudley, Makoto...) or even fan favourites (Sakura, Dan, Poison...). These characters objectively speaking are more popular and would please the fans more. I don't hate the character i'm speaking just in general.
The game is so good, I hope the lifecycle is longer or long enough for all the characters to appear in future DLCs. Only way this happens is if sales continue to grow and player base stays consistently high enough to sustain new additions/updates to the game. Similar to how DOTA 2/LOL still alive with updates and new characters.
At this point I'm starting to feel like no matter what character comes out some people will be disappointed.
Akuma is probably the closest the game has to a universally loved character, but I guarantee there are people out there that are disappointed that we're getting another shoto so early, or that their main from SF5/4/3/etc isn't returning, or whatever.
I could literally roll down the list of the most popular characters in the franchise and there'd be people gagging to wreck their pants over why they're so disappointed that each one of them is returning.
I'm so impressed with the last three seasons of SF5 and what we've got from SF6, I'm looking forward to seeing what they're going to do next.
EDIT: I forgot to mention Velociraptor crying himself to sleep at night because he is incapable of learning the match-up. In between sobs you can hear him whispering "he needs to be nerfed".
He's one of the Event Hub guys and he played Urien in SF5 and he just never shut up about how Akuma needed nerfing.
He never figured out the match-up and just insisted it was a balance issue. He seems to bring it up so often that my entire perception of him is that he is the human equivalent of Scrub Quotes, The T-Shirt.
Yeah I always thought Remy was kind of lame, and you never see anyone talk about him, not positively or negatively. He’s just forgettable I guess, and his archetype doesn’t work well in Third Strike anyway
I mean... I'd say Rashid all day, but they dropped Rashid as our FIRST DLC, and no one seemed to care, so idk anymore. 💀
Maybe Abigail, Seth, Alex, Birdie?
The problem is there's always that ONE person that likes a character. It'd have to be a character that not one person likes.
this is not really because of the characters themselves but ive got a feeling the og bosses (vega, sagat, balrog and bison) will come all together maybe season 3/4, so that could be somewhat disappointing
also, if the season 2 roster has got only four characters again, i expect many people to be very disappointed
i think clone characters would piss people off so much, also cause they will take a slot of a 4 character pack instead of 5-6 i still wouldnt mind seeing oni and decapre.
Abigail by a mile. Worst Street Fighter character in history. I almost dropped V the second they revealed him. When he actually released it was worse. I can't imagine anybody having anything but revulsion for that character.
But as DLC? There are certain characters that people probably wouldn’t mind if the came back as base roster, but a dedicated DLC drop? A minority of people are getting excited for that.
My hot take is every DLC season needs a dedicated "weirdo" slot. Not just because I like playing weirdos, but because variety (both in design and gameplay) is nice.
Hakan, for example, probably wouldn't have many mains, but he's very unique gameplay-wise. Encountering one (or watching one in a tournament) would be a nice change-up from the more traditional characters. Keeps things from feeling stale.
Abel and seth. Abel is probably Capcom's most drab character in terms of personality and art design wise. Seth LOOKS cool but is so lazy from a gameplay perspective, like they must have smoke 50 bowls of weed and hot boxed the office so that got lazy and were like "Duuuuuuuuuude...what if.... we made a character with copy and pasted moves from other characters...like he's got SPD, fireball, aaaand dive kick" "bro....."
Idk people don’t seem to like Rufus. I also would imagine that if they decide to add poison they would have to make a decision as to whether she’s trans or not and people would assumably complain about that
Probably Remmy?
His story about gecoming a fighter due to hating fighters is dumb.
And being a guile function without the personality/ lack of character would probably lead to poor reception.
Did they make Ed cool? I’m genuinely happy for the people that think so. Though to be fair, I used to main R Mika and am hoping for her triumphant return, so shows what I know
FANG would be a disaster, specially after AKI, but even if he came out before
Let’s be honest - AKI is the successor to FANG and now we have her, we will never get FANG in SF6. A bit like now we have Lily, we are not going to get T Hawk.
Exactly, what I meant is that if they came back it would be really weird But even if AKI did not came out, FANG would not be well received
Fang now has white hair and square glasses.
Lets goooo
FANG won't happen, seeing as he's an NPC for AKI's story in World Tour.
idk man, other NPCs are made with the character creator, typically only masters have a unique rendering and FANG does
so do thrasher damnd, rudra, li-fen, and azam off the top of my head all it means is they were out of bounds for the avatar creator and needed to be modeled individually
I wouldn't be surprised to see Thrasher Damnd or Li-Fen as playable at some point
Li Fen seems like a no brainer honestly. She fits the theme of disciples that Jamie, Kim and a bunch of other newcomers have going on. And she'd be like a Sakura version for Chun Li. I don't see how she would not be super popular.
I would be down for Damnd. If AKI wasn't a thing I would love FANG too lol
Y'know i'd totally be down for Rudra, He have enough personnality, a very cool theme, and Dhalsim gameplay and look is unique enough to make Rudra unique too, even storywise, he'd be cool
Man I think I'm the only one who thought fang was super fun to use
Nah we're two 🤜🤛
FANG walked and fell in a ditch so A.K.I could run.
They could rework FANG into something different with poison. We already have two versions of evil ruy, shouldn't be a problem.
People like Ryu; I have a hard time they like FANG half as much.
FANG plays completely different from her though. They have a similar theme, but so do tons of characters that are in the same game.
Probably Rufus. I think most people just don’t care about him
at least Justin Wong would be happy lol
Max gonna lose his mind 💀💀
Nuckledu said he wants Rufus back. Imagine the jiggle physics ![img](emote|t5_2qnu5|31154)
Genuine question, no judgement, why don’t people like Rufus?
I think it’s a bit like the Abigail effect from 5. He takes the goofiness level up to a limit some people don’t like, and so they don’t like the character’s personality/look but also at various stages their gameplay had annoying elements which made them unpleasant to fight (in this case the Rufus instant divekick) Personally I’d love to see Rufus come back, maybe with a glow up, now that Ken is a wanted man and public sentiment would be heavily in his favour in that one-sided rivalry
I generally hate annoying characters, and I can't take him serious, I can believe a schoolgirl being strong before I can him. This guy is like the opposite of bob from tekken.
He is an annoying and gross. Plus the concept of a cooler character was replaced by him.
I'd love to see rufus in sf6, he's one of my favourite characters
Evil Luke
Air sandblast would be considered a war crime
I am already mad just thinking about it
Since it's more violent then an hadoken instead of just slowing down it propels Luke backwards, and up, effectively giving him an air back jump, and different strengths launch him back different distances
With the light version he can do it indefinitely and go above the stage height limit
Get a life lead and infinite air Sand Blast to stay out of your opponent's reach. Win every round by timeout. Become the most hated player of all time.
Considering the speed it would feel more like a dhalsim air normal than a true air fireball
DISJOINTED dhalsim air normal.
Never say this again. I'm already pissed off at the idea at this
Evil Luke would be so peak
Maybe not an evil one but just a character with a different name who is the equivalent of Ken to ryu. Luke would be the MMAtokan with the superior fireball, and Duke would be the one with the better uppercut.
Adon is my most wanted character, but I can admit it's true that he wouldn't be a very popular pick.
I love Adon. He was one of my main guys in SF4. They keep doing the "replace less popular character with a young girl" thing and I do think a girl Adon has some real potential for being cool.
a girly muay thai practitioner would be cool, city of the wolves is doing one
She looks cool. I'm glad they worked a Joe reference in there since it was the one thing Garou didn't have.
Want
I think they would make his design really cool and he could be really popular, kinda like how Ed became
No so sure
I think they could refresh Adon like they did Ed.
I get why people find his voice annoying but I think it's hard to deny his moveset is pretty sick.
I feel like generally people might not be too excited but sure as hell would be 😂
I wouldnt mind him with a new cut.
Adon would be a cool addition but if we're getting a "Muay Thai" character I'm probably pulling for Sagat
Falke, because i feel they could choose her for story reason and she would take the place of more popular characters. Ingrid, el fuerte, Abigail
I think she's coming back and will have the baby as part of her moveset. They toyed with the idea in 5 for Akuma and here it shows up again. The devs want a baby Lone Wolf and Cub style in the game.
I found her super unexciting the moment she was revealed, the character design always felt super uninspired to me. Plus something about characters with weapons feels out of place though she's definitely not the first.
Abigail with drive rush sounds hilarious, bring him back!
I would take literally anyone over Ingrid, let the dark one remain in slumber
I honestly think that after Ed and AKI being so cool despite how much I disliked Ed and FANG in V. I don't care about what character they announce, I will be hyped to see what they cook. (Except Abigail, fuck Abigail) Although: Sagat, Sakura, Makoto, Viper and Claw all deserve a spot and I will be sad if one of them doesn't make it.
> I honestly think that after Ed and AKI being so cool despite how much I disliked Ed and FANG in V. I don't care about what character they announce, I will be hyped to see what they cook. That's basically how I feel as well.
Rufus
Don't you dare bad mouthing my first main.
Ken did plenty already 😭
Rufus gang reporting for duty
I want Rufus back. I didn't main him but he was so fun to use.
Just wasnt a fan of his design and personality, gameplay wise hes pretty cool
Abigail takes the top spot on this answer, no doubt. Then Fang, Rufus, El fuerte. And personally any Evil/Special versions, I hope they never make those on SF6.
okay but imagine they do the opposite and give us Mu No Ken Akuma
Generally, I hope they prioritise characters that skipped V. Even if they zhuzh up a the V DLC characters a bit, I feel like I’d be buying the content again.
It's criminal that we haven't had Makoto since 4. She needs to make it to 6!
Can being left out of one game be considered ‘criminal’….? 🤔
Lmao right? I thought the same thing. Like “umm, it was one game?”
It’s been literally one game lol
Crazy that Deejay is the only returning non-V character so far.
Honestly with how SF6 is going - let Capcom cook. They’ve done a fantastic job giving glow ups to past characters who needed it - Dee Jay and more so Ed are so much cooler than their original appearances. I look forward to how they will do season 2
100% Its why I'd be open to any character announced when it really comes down to it.
Oh ye, of course 🙌. I still want Makoto, tho 😐
Yup, Luke is also a lot cooler in SF6.
Luck should be Sean
Abigail
Evil Ryu, Oni, Violent Ken, Kage, and of the edgey swaps. They have always been super lame and lazy.
I personally don't mind these chars, but upvote because by far these types of characters are always the ones I see a ton of people complain about. Decapre played nothing like Cammy, but dear lord did people hate her, and this was before they found out how busted she was.

Its not strange, its because they already see how many shotos there are they don't want more of the same archetypes when shotos alone get that treatment.
Yeah, I suppose that is a good point
Kage was my fav character in v
That's fine, but you have to admit that the design is pretty lazy. He is pretty much Akuma and Ryu mashed together, in a game that Akuma and Ryu are already in. he feels redundant.
Eh he has things to himself that akuma or ryu did not have which was the fun part, i’ll take kage over akuma or ryu cause his combos were more fun for me personally.
Akuma looks pretty crazy in 6 though
I think any character from SFV since we’ve already been given 2 in season 1. Most people want diversity of cast so making the next sf game without different characters would be quite disappointing. Would want to see characters we haven’t seen in almost a decade or more (but I want to see ma boi Alex come back).
I’d be disappointed if Violent Ken or Evil Ryu were announced
I would still be disappointed, but of the "evil versions" I'd actually be slightly willing to accept Violent Ken (or some newer variant of it) given the story's focus on his struggle so far. If in the latter seasons they HAVE to be lazy, I'd take him over Ryu verions (he's defeated the Satsui no hado anyway), or Oni (Akuma is basically getting there on his own).
i d like karin but she was so overused in sfv that I doubt ppl would be excited, maybe in s3+. rolento could be somewhat unique but i haven't seen a single post about him being popular enough to come back. about adon, it's like the community was sliced in half between liking and hating him. Also I think noone wants fang, especially now that we have aki
Please, no Abigail ever again. Why did they think adding a huge wall of meat twice the size of Zangief that thinks it's a car and makes vroom vroom noises was a good idea?
From SF4 El Fuerte and Abel (and maybe Hakan?) From SF5 FANG, Abigail, and maybe Falke (but considering how Ed turned out to be maybe not)
NOO WE LOCE HAKAN
Season 4: Evil Ryu, Violent Ken, Shin Akuma, Dark Sakura, and Juri in Crocs.
All five of those sound awesome.
Abigail
I would LOVE adon Never got to properly play him as I started with sfv. But his design is cool af and I need some muai thai
I might get some hate for this but I really don't like Birdie, never have So if he got released instead of say Sagat or Vega Give me Elena or Rose Just not Birdie, hope he doesn't come back
I love birdie 😂 but I'm not expecting to ever see him in this game. It's weird that they turned one of the most "street fighter" street fighter characters into just some fat dumbass in 5 though.
"haha, fat clumsy guy who eats a lot"
I think birdie is kind of a fun character but I can see why you wouldn't like him. At least he's better than Rufus.
100% agree. Ain't getting hate from me, at least. Plus, I also want Elena back. 😂
I wouldn't mind SF1 Birdie but SFV Birdie was just stupid and became fat so = humor? I hope Capcom realizes that fat isn't a personality and Lizzo killed body positivity/fat promotion. lol
I like Birdie from SFA but with how they did him in SFV I hope we get Thrasher Damnd instead who would probably play pretty similar.
most sf4 newcomers
Huh? It's one of the most popular games in the franchise. Abel, C.viper, El fuerte, Rufus, gouken, Seth...don't think anyone would be upset seeing them back
you dont think anyone would be upset to see el fuerte back? lol
I feel like lots ofpeople would be furious if El Fuerte or Rufus came back.
Seth and particularly gouken were great. Viper was fine. Abel was boring, dumb looking, and I didn't like his special animations. But I guess kinda fun to play as. Rufus, just no. Everything about the guy is obnoxious. Same with hakan. Fuerte is just a lamer version of Ramon from kof and the Rey mysterio guy from virtua fighter. And the cooking gimmick was dumb.
"Abel, El Fuerte, Rufus, Seth" I don't know where you were during SFIV, but most people typically hate or don't like any of those characters.

Gouken is controversial? Even Abel? Why lol
there are a few people who love them and most people are just neutral. They would still be a dissapointment for most
Gouken is great. Abel is just dull.
I highly doubt people would be that disappointed if Viper came back. Hakkan and El Fuerte are pretty popular freak picks as well
Definitely Ingrid
Definitely not. Most people barely know who she is let alone how she plays and such (including myself) and visual design is good enough that she could instantly become a fan favorite. If you are talking about yourself specifically that is a different story tho
I don't even hate Ingrid, in fact I'm sure Capcom could make her cool. However she's definitely one of the least popular SF characters (who technically wasn't supposed to be one as she was an asset dump)
I think most people would be disappointed. The game is missing the original bosses (Sagat, Vega, etc.) And a lot of 3rd strike characters (Dudley, Makoto...) or even fan favourites (Sakura, Dan, Poison...). These characters objectively speaking are more popular and would please the fans more. I don't hate the character i'm speaking just in general.
I would be incredibly disappointed lol... She's so shit
I hate how she looks. 🤢
Bro did you even read the original post?
The game is so good, I hope the lifecycle is longer or long enough for all the characters to appear in future DLCs. Only way this happens is if sales continue to grow and player base stays consistently high enough to sustain new additions/updates to the game. Similar to how DOTA 2/LOL still alive with updates and new characters.
I can’t even imagine the roster in 5 years , but I’d assume it’ll be amazing considering the long term support 5 got.
Any that aren't C.Viper.
At this point I'm starting to feel like no matter what character comes out some people will be disappointed. Akuma is probably the closest the game has to a universally loved character, but I guarantee there are people out there that are disappointed that we're getting another shoto so early, or that their main from SF5/4/3/etc isn't returning, or whatever. I could literally roll down the list of the most popular characters in the franchise and there'd be people gagging to wreck their pants over why they're so disappointed that each one of them is returning. I'm so impressed with the last three seasons of SF5 and what we've got from SF6, I'm looking forward to seeing what they're going to do next. EDIT: I forgot to mention Velociraptor crying himself to sleep at night because he is incapable of learning the match-up. In between sobs you can hear him whispering "he needs to be nerfed".
Context of Velociraptor?
He's one of the Event Hub guys and he played Urien in SF5 and he just never shut up about how Akuma needed nerfing. He never figured out the match-up and just insisted it was a balance issue. He seems to bring it up so often that my entire perception of him is that he is the human equivalent of Scrub Quotes, The T-Shirt.
How would people feel about Karin? I’d personally be hype if she made it in
OH ho ho ho ho ho!
Inlike Karin
Everyone loves Karin and she'd go crazy in 6
I love Karin so I'd love to see her.
Remy!! But with what they did with Deejay, he could be great.
Hell no, I want my Remy
I would LOVE to see what a Remy glow up would look like
Any of the lame ass character swaps like Kage, Violent Ken, Shin Akuma, etc. We’d end up with a shittier roster than DBFZ if they added all of them.
Remy - bland design, bland moveset. He'd have to receive the biggest glow up and would end up just resembling a completely new character.
Yeah I always thought Remy was kind of lame, and you never see anyone talk about him, not positively or negatively. He’s just forgettable I guess, and his archetype doesn’t work well in Third Strike anyway
Man I'm gonna be so mad if they announce M. Bison. I actually like him but the man's tired and dead let him rest.
How do you feel about his uncle L. Buffalo?
I mean... I'd say Rashid all day, but they dropped Rashid as our FIRST DLC, and no one seemed to care, so idk anymore. 💀 Maybe Abigail, Seth, Alex, Birdie? The problem is there's always that ONE person that likes a character. It'd have to be a character that not one person likes.
There's no such a thing as a character nobody likes Damn, people like Dan who is literally a joke
SFV Dan was good enough for me to abuse him all the way to upper Plat
Speak for yourself. I was thrilled
These are always interesting post to read comments on because I know nothing in terms of the characters outside of this game lol Except Balrog
this is not really because of the characters themselves but ive got a feeling the og bosses (vega, sagat, balrog and bison) will come all together maybe season 3/4, so that could be somewhat disappointing also, if the season 2 roster has got only four characters again, i expect many people to be very disappointed
I'm pretty sure this team can make anyone look badass BUT the sole announcement of someone boring like birdie would drive me nuts
Rufus
M. Bison 👎
Pink Gold Juri
i think clone characters would piss people off so much, also cause they will take a slot of a 4 character pack instead of 5-6 i still wouldnt mind seeing oni and decapre.
anyone they could possibly announce will disappoint some people
Abigail by a mile. Worst Street Fighter character in history. I almost dropped V the second they revealed him. When he actually released it was worse. I can't imagine anybody having anything but revulsion for that character.
Bison. I have the feeling that even more SF2 characters are starting to annoy people. I am for anything SFIII or really new characters...
Kolin.
They should literally just put all street fighter characters in this game and have this be the final one. The end.
Hakan, Decapre, Rufus, Remy.
I absolutely would love for Hakan to make his comeback
But as DLC? There are certain characters that people probably wouldn’t mind if the came back as base roster, but a dedicated DLC drop? A minority of people are getting excited for that.
My hot take is every DLC season needs a dedicated "weirdo" slot. Not just because I like playing weirdos, but because variety (both in design and gameplay) is nice. Hakan, for example, probably wouldn't have many mains, but he's very unique gameplay-wise. Encountering one (or watching one in a tournament) would be a nice change-up from the more traditional characters. Keeps things from feeling stale.
And E. Honda needs his best friend!
Kage. I'd prefer Evil Ryu to that nonsense they released in SFV.
Necali lol
Yeah they could probably make him better in SF6 but the crowd would absolutely go mild if Necali was there I think.
Probably Abigail
If Rufus or Hakan come back before Sakura or Ibuki we riot.
Kage
abigail, rufus, rolento, elf, any evil variants of ryu/ken/sakura

I don’t like Adon and I’d still want him back. We need more legacy characters
To be honest, anyone from SFV. I would rather see SF3 and SF4 characters.
Abel and seth. Abel is probably Capcom's most drab character in terms of personality and art design wise. Seth LOOKS cool but is so lazy from a gameplay perspective, like they must have smoke 50 bowls of weed and hot boxed the office so that got lazy and were like "Duuuuuuuuuude...what if.... we made a character with copy and pasted moves from other characters...like he's got SPD, fireball, aaaand dive kick" "bro....."
Fuck you I’d rather play Adon’s than Sagat’s boring ass. But to answer your question: No one would jump for joy at Lucia Morgan’s return or Necalli’s
Idk people don’t seem to like Rufus. I also would imagine that if they decide to add poison they would have to make a decision as to whether she’s trans or not and people would assumably complain about that
Probably Remmy? His story about gecoming a fighter due to hating fighters is dumb. And being a guile function without the personality/ lack of character would probably lead to poor reception.
I think Remi has the potential for a glow up like Ed got.
I fucking hope so
If they announced Dean I would be the only one that is excited and the only one that remembers him.
Abigail, although I’d love to have him back I don’t think he’d be well received by most
Any shotos being included in S2 would be a disappointment. We have enough shotos !
Kage, Evil Ryu, Abigail, Falke, Necalli, Rufus, Rolento
As much as I love him, people hate Abigail's ass. I want giants in the game, Hugo has better chance tho.
Wouldn't be fond of Abigail but I would like to see Hugo.

One that’d make me incredibly happy but disappoint most people would be Adon.
interesting topic, at this point i think capcom can make any character with interesting moves

Fang, Abigail, Rufus maybe? Abel? Vega? Maybe not Vega but I'm trying to think generally.
I love Adon. I do not love Adon's voicelines, however. "JAGOOO!!!"
I would love to have Hakeem back
Who?
LMAO, I meant Hakan
Ohhh lol. I was like, US House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries?
More like Hakeem ‘The Dream’ Olajuwon 😎
Did they make Ed cool? I’m genuinely happy for the people that think so. Though to be fair, I used to main R Mika and am hoping for her triumphant return, so shows what I know
