@mistfined 2/2 I'm not gonna sit here and say that only 9 new characters, 2 SFIII, SFIV, and SFV characters, and NO Alpha rep over 4-ish years is good. Especially with how wild and experimental SFV's DLC was.
I also don't jive with the idea that what we got was bad "since the beginning".
@mistfined 1/2 I'll elaborate.
OP said the roster was bad "since the beginning". I showed two characters who were both 1. Heavily criticized from Day 1 and 2. Debuted in the initial starting roster of their game. They were there "since the beginning".
@Xingu1arity_ I promise you, this is the same way people reacted to Sean and Laura in their respective games.
Some of the World Warriors just aren't good rep for their countries 🤷🏿♂️
@RenaisDreaded I respect that opinion, especially as a professional Guile hater.
Though I don't personally fw them, we're brothers in agreeing they'd be a cooler pick than those World Warriors 🤝
@Delta35238779 Not really, no. Whenever I've seen hate slung towards characters like Kimberly or Marisa, it's for *reasons* that tend to get people booted out of conversations.
@RanniTheBitch_ Man said "since the beginning"
I'd gladly take some SF2 rep with a heaping helping of newbies over the entire base roster of SF2 with only 4-ish newcomers. I'll also gladly take Kim, Lily, Manon, etc. over any of SF4's original newcomers (except for the queen).
Niggas hating on the new characters are lame, but...
• No new stages
• No new World Tour interactions
• SF3 rep is still only up to 2 💀
• Yet another guest
This is easily the least productive season of SF6 by a mile.
@Scotia834 I think it'll be Year 6.
Aside from the obvious joke of the SF6 ending updates on 6, I just think that a 6 year lifespan of a modern Street Fighter game makes a little more sense.
sf players are really the only people that complain about old character nostalgia slop then get mad when new shit is introduced like shut the fuck up 😭
#Streetfighter6 I just cannot be mad at this lineup when they FINALLY are debuting new characters. AND THEY ACTUALLY LOOK COOL!!
The last time we got a new character was AKI, and for a game that actually progresses the plot of Street Fighter, that's way too long ago 💀
Genuinely, I'm happy for all my South Asian brothers and sisters who absolutely won with this season. AND ALL 3 OF THEM ARE NEW CHARACTERA OMFG!!!!
...oh, and Tifa's cool. She's gonna stand out in this artstyle by being weirdly not jacked lol.
Year 4 of #StreetFighter6 welcomes Tifa from the FINAL FANTASY VII Remake Series!
🗡️ Yasmine - August 3, 2026

Brand new characters, a guest character, and the second protagonist from World Tour are ready!
@Twilite0 Rillaboom: "That mean 'ol Kingambit giving you trouble, sweetheart. Don't worry. Your ol' pal Rillaboom will OHKO him with a Hammer Arm for you."
@WeedleTwineedle The fangs will leave you utterly disappointed 😔
I had to bench Basculegion after it kept failing to OHKO Garchomp, just barely missing the kill at like 7% HP.
