Which fight game character is YOUR best?

[digitalpress]

Doesn't matter what game, what console, or even if it's the arcade or handheld version of a game. What single fighting game character have you had the most success with? You know, the one that you would choose if it were for a one time, "all the marbles" kind of competition.

[Nature Boy]

Ling Xiaoyu from Tekken Tag Tournament.

I don't play many fighting games at all (don't really like 'em) - but this was a launch day purchase for me so it got a *lot* of play (on my own and with friends).

[Retsudo]

Paul Phoenix- Because he uses a mixed style of martial arts. But he's powerful and too the point. I have to admit, when I first saw him in the arcade, I laughed at him. I though he looked like Ken from SF with a flat top.

[NE146]

E Honda.. only because no one else seems to pick him and odds are they wouldn't have as much real world experience playing against someone like myself who's stupidly spent the past 12 years obsessively trying to master him :D

[Gamereviewgod]

Either Genjuro or Haomaru. They might be bit slower than the reast of the crowd, 2 or 3 firece shots and your dead. :D

[IntvGene]

Juggernaut or Magneto from the Capcom vs. series... at least against my friends. For some reason, I can just seem to pound with these two. I know that they are good characters, but I don't think that they are necessarily the strongest of the series.

[Zubiac666]

I don't really know
I'm between "Lord Deimos" from "Mace-The dark age" (cause he speaks nearly the same dialect)
and "Jago" from Killer Instinct (cause he would kick all other "ninjas" to hell with his ULTRA COMBO* )

*shouting out loud

[Sotenga]

Akuma would probably be my overall greatest, though I'm also pretty damn good with Terry Bogard, Cable, Genjuro, and Alex. But messing with my Akuma is OFF-LIMITS. :evil laugh:

[djbeatmongrel]

although i suck at fighters, i can stomp some ass with Millia Rage in Guilty Gear X.

[Oobgarm]

Ryu. He's the first character I picked when I stepped up to the SFII machine for the first time. I've since gotten pretty damn good with him. Ken's cool as well, but I prefer the longer range fireball rather than the flaming Shoryuken.

[jaydubnb]

To visit my most devestating character, you'd have to hop into a time machine and set the clock back about 12 years and play Street Fighter II: The World Warrior. That version of Guile is a f'n monster. Jp Fierce, Standing Fierce, Sonic Boom, Fierce Backfist = say bye bye.

For an all around character regardless of one single incarnation? Terry Bogard.

[§ Gideon §]

I'd pick Ryu (SSF2) like Oobgard.

Or, I may pick Kim Kaphwan (KoF '97).

Or, I could go with Captain Falcon (SSB).

Favorites are hard.

[Sph1nx]

Kitrini (That is soooo not spelled right) from MK2. Preferably Genesis version.

[Darth Sensei]

E Honda.. only because no one else seems to pick him and odds are they wouldn't have as much real world experience playing against someone like myself who's stupidly spent the past 12 years obsessively trying to master him :D

I like him too. He's very similar to another favorite of mine, Blanka.

However, my best fighter has to be Martial Law, hands down.

D

[EnemyZero]

Id say either Xianghua (yeah thats not spelled right) and Ivy from soul cal. or for some reason no one can beat me using Captain Falcon on SSBM

[spoon]

Spider-Man (Capcom)

[ManekiNeko]

Who else but Dan Hibiki?
Well, I like to play as Cammy or Ken too, when I feel like winning.

JR

[nesman85]

i don't play fighters too much and i'm not very good with ANY character, but i guess my best character is ryu in street fighter 2 turbo. i'm also alright with rayden in mortal kombat 2... just not against anybody who has any skills.

[gamergary]

Akuma Ryu and War Machine are what I beat down my friends with.

[WiseSalesman]

for some reason no one can beat me using Captain Falcon on SSBM

REeeeeeeaaaallyyy.....You're not anywhere near Ohio, are you? My Zelda is unstoppable in one-on-one.

Anyway, I'd pick Super Smash Bros. (N64) Fox.

Failing that, SSBM Zelda, SC2 Heihachi, SC Hwang, or MSH Spiderman.

And that's about it. Except for the Smash Bros games, I pretty much suck at fighters. When it comes to SSB, however, I am like unto a god! 8-)

Okay, seriously though. There are only two game in which I will brag on my skills; DDR and the SSB games. And I'm nowhere NEAR as good at DDR as I am at SSB. If anyone's near the Cleveland area and wants a challenge, I'm happy to provide it. :evil:

[ubersaurus]

SF2: Hyper Fighting Ryu, and E Honda
KOF/CvS2 Athena
Smash Bros/Smash Bros Melee Fox McCloud

[AB Positive]

I said it before, I'll say it again.

If I was closer to you I'd whoop your a$$ in SSB and SSBM. :P

I can beat anyone with any character in those games. I especially enjoyed playing my three friends against me to 100 kills, which of course I beat the crap out of them. 8-)

Other than that, probably Ken from the SF series is my best character.

[bargora]

Sara. Or Sophitia. Not like I'd get the marbles anyway, but there you go...

[portnoyd]

There's two. One, probably the first choice, would be Colossus, specifically from MvsC2.:

http://schwillz.com/colossus.gif

And two, even better if they're paired up together. is Tron Bonne from MvsC2:

http://schwillz.com/tron.gif

Throw Sentinel in between them, and you've got my team. :)

dave

[Starcade]

Combo from Killer Instinct is my main guy :)

[WiseSalesman]

I can beat anyone with any character in those games. I especially enjoyed playing my three friends against me to 100 kills, which of course I beat the crap out of them. 8-)

I'd enjoy the challenge, but I am QUITE comfortable in my abilities. There's a chance (a small one :P ) that you might win but, trust me, you wouldn't whip my ass.

And if, by some chance, you DID turnout to be better me, I can guarantee with 100% certainty you couldn't do it with every character.

Yeah, I've done the three on one thing too. I also played a friend, who had logged a LOT of time into the first one, for three hours without him landing a hit on me in SSB when I played as fox. That's my personal accomplishment in that game.

Actually, Drexel, I think we've had this conversation before :D . I think the thread was called "What game are you REALLY good at" or something like that. Since a matchup isn't really possible (thanks for the lack of internet support, nintendo) I'll give you the benefit of the doubt for now and call you my equal. :P

</arrogance>

[Spoony Bard]

Zato1-ONE/Eddie from the Guilty Gear series, because through playing him my interest in competitive fighting games was resurrected.

And also because he can kill you off a knockdown 8-)

[SegaAges]

Hands Down, Ken from CvS2. I got good with Ken just because I used to play World Warriors with my friends, and they always picked Ryu and had a rule where you couldn't pick the same person. The only problem is that I am only good at the Dreamcast version of CvS2 with Ken. I will step into the arcade and get stomped, but there have been numerous times when my friends play that game with me in the arcades, stomp the crap out of my, and then we go to my place, and they are lucky to get 3 or 4 hits in.

[Balloon Fight]

Since i mainly play the vs. series and SSBM, I'd have to say- Magneto and Cable are my best, but sometimes i own with Sentinel.
For SSBM its Falco all the way, but i can mix it up with a good Dr. Mario.

[Drexel923]

</arrogance>

Yeah, we did have this conversation before. It would be a pretty good match I agree, though I have a better idea. Form the greatest tag team ever and rule the world! :evil:

I haven't played in a long time so you probably would whip my ass, but it would be a match for the ages. 8-)

Eiji Shinjo - D-Xhird *looks around and slowly backs out of the room*

[scooterb23]

Blanka.

Although I can hold my own with Jigglypuff or Pikachu in SSBM :)

[calthaer]

Wolverine from the Marvel vs. Capcom or XMen vs. Street Fighter.

I usually pair him with Charlie or Akuma.

[Kid Fenris]

Sara. Or Sophitia. Not like I'd get the marbles anyway, but there you go...

When next we meet, I shall see to it that you and Sophitia BURN TOGETHER LIKE AUTUMN LEAVES.

Anyway, I'm gonna have to go with Millia Rage (Spot the hair-metal allusion!) from the Guilty Gear series. She's the only character with whom I've been confident enough to enter an official tournament. Granted, I was no match for a fiendish Faust player in the third round, but it was the first time I thought I actually had a chance against skilled opponents.

[bargora]

Sara. Or Sophitia. Not like I'd get the marbles anyway, but there you go...

When next we meet, I shall see to it that you and Sophitia BURN TOGETHER LIKE AUTUMN LEAVES.

And then my Voldo's gonna dice you all up bloodier than a potato peeler and Mantis Crawl all over your corpses! :evil laugh:

Don't mess with Cervantes or Maxi either. Taki and Nightmare are also monsters under my guidance. :evil:

[Kroogah]

I can beat nearly all my friends in SSBM with MR. GAME AND WATCH. I have beaten guys that have been playing the game since the original was released with MR. GAME AND WATCH.

2D fighters? Sagat.

3D fighters? Bryan Fury.

[Neonsolid]

Gone.

[jwl]

Sakura in Marvel VS Capcom 2, and pretty much any other games she's in.

[izret101]

Scorpion in any normal fighting game.
Dr. Mario in SSBM.
Marvel vs. Capcom2 team Wolverine, Cable, Juggernaut.

[Nez]

Iori's my go to guy.

Followed by King, Ralph, and Benimaru.

[-hellvin-]

Soul Calibur - Lizard Man

Lizard man is fucking death. You will be ringed out. Such a whorish character. Too bad he got kinda screwed in SC2. One thing that pissed me off about that game.

[RetroYoungen]

I said it before, I'll say it again.

KING

she is without a doubt, unfuckwithable.

-AG

The term "unfuckwithable" is the greatest thing I've read in a while, as I missed this thread the first time 'round.

In Millenium Fight SNK vs. Capcom for the NGPC, I'm nearly god-like with both Evil Iori and Ryu (not as much Evil Ryu, surprisingly). For the Samurai Showdown series, Nakaruru are my ladies.

And Kinf for whatever game she's in. Whether I'm good with her or not, I'll play as her. Though Nakaruru is hotter ( :P @ AdamG ) and I can kick AdamG's ass with her ( :P :P ). :D

[Howie6925]

dhalsim would be my best, next to ken in street fighter 2(any)

[Escape•From•Jenny•Island]

Billy Kane (FF and KOF), Mature (KOF), Vice (KOF and CvS) Yamazaki (FF KOF and CvS), Lee Recca (Last Blade), Goenitz (KOF and SvC), Genjuro (SamSho and SvC), Gato (MOTW and KOF '03), Freeman (MOTW), Demitri (Vampire and SvC), Millia Rage (Guilty Gear), Testament (Guilty Gear), Reiji (Power Instinct), Sonia Romaneko (ROTD), Guy (SFA), Ken (CvS and).

Billy is deffinately my favorite though, untouchable 8-)

[NintendoMan]

I like using RYU from the Street Fighter's the most. BUT, the person I am best with is Raphael from Soul Calibur 2. I kick ass with him!!!

[DTJAAAAMJSLM]

Terry Bogard!

[El CiF]

i was always really good with misturugi in all the soul calibur games including soul edge. funny thing is i dont really like him that much

[FantasiaWHT]

I'm accounted to be pretty damn good with Sheik (I never play as Zelda, hehe. Handicapping myself even)

My best friend is the king of all fighting games that I've ever met (he manages another EB and constantly has competitions where he challenges any customer to beat him with ANY character in ANY fighting game) and I can trounce him in SSBM with Sheik :)

Juggling is soooooo sweet

[Predatorxs]

RYU, I literally.. kill people with RYU, (Ken and Akuma) complete the holy Trinity.. ;)

http://www.xs.dsl.pipex.com/avator/ms_ufo.gif..XS

[tony_good]

I find Ken, Ryu, and Akuma boring, even though they are probably the best rounded characters.

It used to be Guile, but Remy from SFIII 3rd Strike is so much better.

It's a toss up between Remy and Rolento. But ONLY from SFA2. After that, he seemed so watered down, I was crushed!

[suznjak]

Shin Akuma and Ultimate Rugal.The gods of fighting games :angry:

[Mr.FoodMonster]

I'll just name off a couple, because I cant pick just one.

Yoshimitsu - Tekken games
Faust - Guilty Gear games
Voldo - Soul games
Megaman - VS. games

Yeah, I suppose thats good for now

[Xexyz]

I seem to crush my friends pretty easily when using Iori in any KoF game. His awkward fighting style works well for me. Close 2nd would be Ryu/Ken/Akuma, doesn't matyter which one, theya re basically the same (although Akuma is my favorite).

[Mr.Faxanadu]

Cody in Final Fight

[nate1749]

I can't believe my favorite hasn't been mentioned

Lei - Tekken series


When I first got psx it had a tekken demo and you could only be him or the girl & I've been playing him since. It's always fun to play him in the arcade and it seems that quite a few people don't know about his slide while he's laying on his stomach. I don't know why they didn't put this life-saving move in the instruction manual.

Nate

[retroman]

mine would have to be Baraka from MK2

[WanganRunner]

The twin tit-tacular terror of Ayumi and Kasumi in DOA2 Hardcore

[Lothars]

I have to say Ryu, Ken and Scorpion are the three that comes to mind, but also like kazuya from tekken

[MagicMajenta]

I'm really not sure. I would have to say the shoto characters in the fighting games most likely. I'm really good with characters like Ken, Guile, Ryu, Dimitri, Terry Bogard, K, Baek, Sub Zero, Kitana, to name a few. I don't know which one of those are my best but I am adept at using them.

[Neo Demon]

I would say Goku from the game Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3. Fundamentally I have more advantage in his kicks more then his punches because I wind up throwing more nice combos.

~Neo Demon~

[vulcanjedi]

Hmm

I have played Pai from VFII in expert mode without a continue to get up to Dural. But can not beat her. :(

And done the same with Little Sarah in VF Kids but there is something disturbing about her little tubetop

VJ

[MegaDrive20XX]

I can't pick one...so here I go...

SF3 3rd Strike....Hugo...that glare he gives off before he faces Alex, too pimp

Fatal Fury/KOF- Terry without a doubt

SF Alpha series...Gen...first character in a Capcom series to have two styles

SF2- Ken

Guilty Gear- Testament

Tekken- Heihachi Mishima

Last Blade 2- Hibiki

CVS2- Kyosuke (Nice in 2D form)

Samurai Shodown- Hanzo

AOF series- Mr. Karate

Soul Calibur- Nightmare

Virtua Fighter- Lau Chan

[jdc]

My Monk job in FFXI beats the living crap out of ANYTHING. :D

Seriously, I like using Sophitia in the Soul Calibur games. I was also pretty good with a few characters in the N64's Fighter's Destiny.

I find that many fighters are too fast and frenzied for me to be any good at.

[poloplayr]

Ryu.

[Jibbajaba]

Ryu for me as well. I've been playing SF2 since it came out, and it is the only fighting game that I'm decent at.

Chris

[towerofsong]

I'm crap at all fighting games, apart from IK+
So i'll say that guy in white from IK+
*hums the theme tune*

[blissfulnoise]

Jedah from Darkstalkers. Coolest. Character. Eva!

Any character that can drag you to hell or use your bloody body to sign a contract for your soul rocks in my book.

But, Dudley from Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike is no one to be messed with. Guttertrash!

[Poofta!]

Luigi in Super Smash Brothers Melee. and if i wanna play around, Kirby. =]

[Dj Glitch]

B.B. Hood- MvC 2
Zelda- SSBM
Ling Xiaoyu- Tekken
Christie- DOA 3
Kasumi- DOA 2
Kitana- MK II
Mai- CvS 2
Morrigan- MvC
Shermie- KOF
Yurika- Project Justice
Ayame- Power Stone

[briguy578]

Cervantes, from the Soul Calibur games.

To be honest, I'm not very good at fighting games, and Cervantes is one of the only characters I've played that I could ever win with.

[Kroogah]

Oh my God I need to update my pitiful answers.

SF2 series: Blanka or E. Honda
SFA series: Adon, Rolento
SF3 series: Dudley, Ibuki (not in 3S), Hugo
KoF/SvC: King, Yashiro, Kim, Terry, '97-98 Kyo
Tekken: Bryan, Bruce, Lee
SamSho: Genjuro

[squidblatt]

Blanka. I'm actually pretty good with him. Everyone else I just button-mash and hope for the best.

[DTJAAAAMJSLM]

Terry Bogard!
