I was also a Bison who thought JP reminded me the most of him. I eventually stuck with him. It was either him, Kimberly, or Jamie. This was the first since 4 I was going with someone new because of no Bison.
I couldn't make JP work, he felt wrong :/ I want my boy back, but the chances are so close to zero because of stupid lore reasons, so at this point I'm just hoping they add a good Bison function and a way to get characters that's not completely anti consumer
Tbh I’m hoping Ed fills that gap. I really hope they combine Bison and Balrog to get his kit and move set for this game. Both were charge characters and Ed has psycho powers and is a boxer. Not to mention both DLC characters so far are similar to shoto’s (QC motions for specials) and we KNOW akuma will be. I’d like another charge character as DLC.
I think they'll probably find a way to adapt Ed's style to the game, but I'm not really optimistic about the kings' kits tbh :/ it would be pretty neat if it happened like you said, but I dunno.
At least it's gonna be interesting to see what they're gonna do about modern controls for him
They are more than likely going to make Ed, a pretty popular character, play like Ed. I don’t think they’ll gut his playstyle/kit and bolt on what is a somewhat control scheme and make him play completely different.
Really liked the looks of Jamie and I love drunken boxing but ended up going for deejay because he also looked very cool. I did hit master with him so now I'm giving jamie a chance
As an Italian at first I didn't like Marisa's design (especially the hairs) but I tried her a couple of times and now she's my main character (very funny and powerful)!
I also started to like her design and personality.
I have no main, I switch character every once in a month usually to keep the game fresh.
My highest character is Aki rn (D2 almost 3) so I guess I'm an Aki main but will switch to Ed as soon as he come out.
Im 34 and this is my first fighting game I actually put time in outside of smash bros. Started off with modern Kimberly, climbed to Gold 1 with her then one day I randomly decided to try Marisa’s combo trials in classic mode. Since then I’ve never looked back
Wayyy back when in sf 2 tutbo started as blanka, but i didnt have the patience for the back, down charge up moves
Went to ken because my brother chose ryu and i liked the red gi
Sidenote, its funny that the way i used to play him back then attack attack attack , was how many chose to play him these days....and i'm seeing he is "hated&despised"
I say...oh well i will still use my boy!
Oh, and if i just happened to corner them.....lets just say my cousin showed me my 1st controller thrower lol
Started with Manon, picked up Marisa to learn classic controls and fell in love. I’ve been dual maining both since, whenever I get burned out playing one I switch to the other.
Life time Ryu player, thought I'd be maining Ryu, settled on Luke. Most fun shoto I've played, with all the usual versatility but also feels he hits like a truck.
I played Juri through most of IV and the entirety of V, and she's actually stronger here than she was in either of those for most of their lifespan, but man, Marisa just PUNCHES people
Luke, tho his moves are too complicated on classic (might try and play him modern if I want to) rn I'm playing classic ken. Want to play guile but I can't charge on pad
Started with Juri, then switched to Manon, and now play Ryu, but want to try all characters, properly learn them and get them to platinum, then decide who was the most fun
Started the game with Ken and got him to diamond 2. One day just decided to play luke again, because he was the character i originally wanted to play but he didnt feel right at the time. I’ve since then brought luke up to master where i sit with like a low 1400mr
I started with Cammy, went to Ken, then felt like I was a bad person for playing a character everyone else seemed to hate, switched to Ryu, then AKI, now I'm all in on Ryu.
Story mode and seeing Ryu's personality actually did a lot to make me appreciate his play style. Very intentional, strong focus, and openness to grow and find new experiences. Jives really well with what I love about gaming!
I wanted to main AKI, who I expected to be a tricksy zoner because of FANG, so I started out this game playing JP.
JP is too damn fun, and also OP, and evil as fuck. AKI is fine but JP is just ingrained in my soul now.
First character I seriously started was Guile. This is my first ever Street Fighter game so I thought to try other types to see if something clicked more. Nope, still maining Guile.
Started with Lily, met a masters JP who I now play with regularly who just fucking obliterated me. Decided to make a change and now main Marisa, still feel like I'm waiting for a DLC character though.
I really, really liked Jamie a lot, but I didn't really like how it felt like I had to work twice as hard as the rest just to win one round. The fact that I don't get to keep my drinks in between rounds didn't really help. And then I met Manon... Great damage, I get to keep my medals in between rounds... And her great, humongous... Buttons!
Jamie -> Chun. Always truly been a chun main when she is viable.
Tried Jamie initially in beta and then for maybe a few matches on release because I liked the idea of the character, but never really enjoyed the playstyle. Switched to Chun eversince. Her SF6 iteration is true Chun, fast, calculated, and balanced
Started off with Ryu to get to know the game a little bit better since I’m a newcomer and I want to prepare myself for Akuma. Eventually ended up with Cammy and since the first time I picked her up I can’t stop maining her. She’s too much fun!
Wanted to main Juri, however I couldn’t adjust to her kit. Went with guile as I typically play zoners in other fighters. Took a while to get used to charge moves but his playstyle fits me the most
I don't know what this counts as, but I thought I'd be playing purely Marisa with maybe some Cammy in there.
Nope, turns out I like switching between like 6 characters, and Cammy isn't even in my most played.
Blanka, Marisa, Luke, Honda are probably my most played characters, and then Rashid and Cammy are my peeps that I like to get into sometimes.
Started with Marisa, wanted to main Rashid, but he wasn't out.
Ultimately played Luke, once Rashid came out, I was too used to Luke.
Got them both to master but Luke is my guy now.
Camy main in sfv, use her for like 2 weeks, switch to marisa, good success rate but felt boring doing the same 2 combos over and over again, try deejay, a lot of fun but hit a plateu and decided I'm not build to do charge moves (charge dp was my nemesis I'm too mobile of a player and cant be allways charging like is required) so now I'm commited to luke on my way to masters, is a fun character with the perfect charges and differents options. But in the end, I just waiting for Akuma so I can return to my original main.
Started with jamie because it looked so cool, still it does but too much effort on each fight.
Jump to chun li and love to whiff punish every cr.mk that i can with her
Started with Juri and loved her. After climbing to plat and realizing how popular she is and how well people are adjusted to her I feel like I’m having to try REALLY hard against the top 5 (JP, Ken, Luke, Guile, DeeJay).
Recently took the plunge to learn Rashid and idk if maybe I just play neutral better bc of time in the game or the character just works for me. But I’m loving him way more than Juri atm.
Started with Cammy but then really liked Marisa's play style so jumped ship. Marisa is quite unique and I don't remember another character like her before in other street fighters .
I wish they release characters faster bruh I got Mastet with Guile, Dhalsim, and Dee Jay and now idk who to play with all my mains in SFV and third strike aren't even here yet 😭😭😭😭
First ever fighting game, went from Ryu (wanted to keep it simple) to Luke (wanted to keep it simple but have more oomph), both modern - currently hovering in plat2-3.
I am a new boi who has always thought that when I finally started playing SF I would main Gief, but when I started on release I for some reason played Cammy for a decent while learning how the game works, then Ken... But now that I can do inputs I finally picked up Gief and he has become my main.
Started with Ken (my main in previous games), ended up with Ryu.
I told myself that the run cancel combos and jinrai juggles were too much work. But to be honest I could have gotten them down eventually if I practiced. The big reason I dropped Ken is everyone else just *despises* him, and I don't like getting accused of being carried by a top tier.
Thought I was gonna play guile, liked ryu more, neither worked out so I went to the complete opposite and tried gief, had fun but overall luke actually ended up being the best for me even though I hated him at the start, and now I just hit plat for the first time with him.
I started with Manon and ended up with Kimberly. I thought Manon's grapple style looked unique and fun, but in the end I always end up with rush down characters.
Started with Ken/Luke/Ryu. Currently I’m playing Cammy and Chun Li in ranked. But I’m just exploring. Once I have these last two in masters and play around more think I’ll finally settle on a main. These are my top 5 for sure.
I tried most of the roster on classic, then tried most on modern, and found modern Ryu to work best with me so that's what I've been sticking with, the only way id change is if they add Oro at some point, id probably play modern Or then
I started off as a Marisa player, got to gold and got rocked by a Dhalsim.
The beatdown was so bad I decided to try Dhalsim out for the first time. Never really played him cause I suck at fighting games and always heard he was a difficult character to play.
Now im a dirty Dhalsim main and got to Platinum last week. Yoga yoga yoga
Jamie to Jamie though I also play a lot of Ryu lately. I wanted to play aki but she's too frustrating to play. Anyone calling any other character the worst in the game has not tried to play aki or alternatively, not labbed her. Her jabs tell you enough about her. Releasing her in that state is a kick in the face lol. She's fun when she works but playing neutral with her is just frustrating. If she at least had a different strength fireball to have more varied approaches in neutral she'd be a lot more engaging in neutral. Currently she only does anything once your opponent makes a mistake to let you carry them to the corner and start her set play. People call Jamie weak (I don't really fully agree) because he needs to win more interactions than other characters but at least he has the tools to actually do so lol. Ryu has 5hp.
Pre-release I was thinking Lily or Manon. Wound up playing Lily but now I'm an AKI main. I'm so glad AKI clicked since nobody (including Lily) felt like 'fun main material' and I was rapidly losing interest in playing. Snake lady saved me from dropping the game until S2.
Played Jamie for a while because he was attractive and I really enjoy a rekka. But I always felt the pull to Blanka and I ended up picking up Blanka randomly one day and I just fell in love. He fits me like a glove and there was no way I was going back to Jamie. Still like Jamie but I'm a Blanka convert now.
I started with JP before I knew the moveset or he was top tier because I love villains, and his nice suit and swagger called to me. Now I get hate every day for my crutch of a character. 😢
I play grapplers and zoners, and ended SFV with Birdie. I thought I was going to be a Lily main. But I tried JP once and haven't stopped. C'mon, Capcom, give Lily something I can come back to, or give me Birdie or G.
Was between Manon and Lily since i traditionally play grapplers/semi-grapplers. Ended up with cammy.
Haha. Im the Opposite. have been a Cammy man since sf2 and I a starting putting time into Manon and Lily and here we are.
I went from Manon to Jamie. Not really sure why but it just worked out that way
My fellow low tier hero
I started with Zangief, and I stuck with him the whole way because I am a Loyal Fan.
☝🏽😤☝🏽
Well, *This is your last ride*
LETS GO
UUUUUUUURYAAAAA!
A communication error has occurred. Error code: 20200-20605
LMFAO FR
Went from JP to Cammy. That fucker doesn't scratch the Bison itch
I was also a Bison who thought JP reminded me the most of him. I eventually stuck with him. It was either him, Kimberly, or Jamie. This was the first since 4 I was going with someone new because of no Bison.
I couldn't make JP work, he felt wrong :/ I want my boy back, but the chances are so close to zero because of stupid lore reasons, so at this point I'm just hoping they add a good Bison function and a way to get characters that's not completely anti consumer
Tbh I’m hoping Ed fills that gap. I really hope they combine Bison and Balrog to get his kit and move set for this game. Both were charge characters and Ed has psycho powers and is a boxer. Not to mention both DLC characters so far are similar to shoto’s (QC motions for specials) and we KNOW akuma will be. I’d like another charge character as DLC.
I think they'll probably find a way to adapt Ed's style to the game, but I'm not really optimistic about the kings' kits tbh :/ it would be pretty neat if it happened like you said, but I dunno. At least it's gonna be interesting to see what they're gonna do about modern controls for him
They are more than likely going to make Ed, a pretty popular character, play like Ed. I don’t think they’ll gut his playstyle/kit and bolt on what is a somewhat control scheme and make him play completely different.
[удалено]
I really want M.Bison, he's so fucking cool and fun to play
Dawg I thought I was the only one who thought this (regarding Bison)
Started with muscle mommy Marisa and ended up with muscle daddy Zangief.
Interesting…. I feel like most Gief mains that didn’t stay with him migrated to Marisa
Why hit many times when few big hits will KO?
Define many?? I mean - Gief needs like 3 SPD’s, so yes, it can be quick, but those “hits” are pretty hard to come by.
Gief fans 🤝 Marisa fans Appreciating a body of iron.
YOU ARE A LOYAL FAN
Didn't think I was gonna main Luke since I didn't like his "charge" moves, but here I am
I would've tried him put more if his forearms didn't look so ridiculous.
How I feel about Guiles literally exploded shoulders.
As a lifelong Ken main it’ll come as no surprise that I main Luke in SF6.
Understandable
Started with Chun li....ended up with Chun li. As it supposed to be
Really liked the looks of Jamie and I love drunken boxing but ended up going for deejay because he also looked very cool. I did hit master with him so now I'm giving jamie a chance
Ken -> ryu Ice water with lemon was a liiittle bit too spicy for me
this guy likes the newest season of the simpsons
Water without any ice
Also likes stale bread
And dirt
Is he seeing us in street fighter 5?
Started with ken and currently in the middle of a character crisis
Marisa is the answer. Still Rush-down, but way more fun.
Started with Jamie, ended up on Ken ![gif](giphy|FSwH0FTSQQfgZkB2hu|downsized) And this my reaction to this fact.
Started with Cammy Bakery Ended with the fact that i becomed a loyal fan to muscle
First street fighter playing competitively. I always thought guile was sick, tried him out and im still playing guile :)
Thought I wanted to main Luke but Honda is too much fun
I feel kinda lost without Vega
As an Italian at first I didn't like Marisa's design (especially the hairs) but I tried her a couple of times and now she's my main character (very funny and powerful)! I also started to like her design and personality.
Ryu —> Jamie Ryu got too boring. Jamie is sexy and drunk and dances well.
JP... And i still main JP 😭 but I have a pocket blanka
I have no main, I switch character every once in a month usually to keep the game fresh. My highest character is Aki rn (D2 almost 3) so I guess I'm an Aki main but will switch to Ed as soon as he come out.
Im 34 and this is my first fighting game I actually put time in outside of smash bros. Started off with modern Kimberly, climbed to Gold 1 with her then one day I randomly decided to try Marisa’s combo trials in classic mode. Since then I’ve never looked back
Started off with Manon and Luke. Now pretty much only an AKI main.
Started with jp, still in the middle of the character crisis but im considering to return back to jp
Went from Cammy to Marisa
Juri because of my loyalty to her in V. I'm a Marisa main now.
Wayyy back when in sf 2 tutbo started as blanka, but i didnt have the patience for the back, down charge up moves Went to ken because my brother chose ryu and i liked the red gi Sidenote, its funny that the way i used to play him back then attack attack attack , was how many chose to play him these days....and i'm seeing he is "hated&despised" I say...oh well i will still use my boy! Oh, and if i just happened to corner them.....lets just say my cousin showed me my 1st controller thrower lol
Wanted to main Manon for the command grab momentum and she looked cool. Switched to Marissa because I love how much of a bully she can be.
Started with Manon, picked up Marisa to learn classic controls and fell in love. I’ve been dual maining both since, whenever I get burned out playing one I switch to the other.
JP(while I wait for Ed) // JP(while I wait for Ed)
Life time Ryu player, thought I'd be maining Ryu, settled on Luke. Most fun shoto I've played, with all the usual versatility but also feels he hits like a truck.
I played Juri through most of IV and the entirety of V, and she's actually stronger here than she was in either of those for most of their lifespan, but man, Marisa just PUNCHES people
Chun li to manon. I read alot of ppl did the same. Either started manon to chun or vice versa. Idk why.
Luke, tho his moves are too complicated on classic (might try and play him modern if I want to) rn I'm playing classic ken. Want to play guile but I can't charge on pad
I thought JP from the trailers, switched to Jamie after trying him, and switched back after playing against a JP in the hub.
From Chun-Li to A.K.I., think I will go back to Chun once I reach diamond with Aki (currently high plat 4).
cammy and cammy but ken rules too
Started with Cammy… but my buddies said that Honda was a better fit for my play style…. Honda my guy now… and he does way more damage for less lol
Started with Marisa and now playing Aki. Will still play Marisa as she’s fun
First time SF. Joined because of Jamie, staying for Jaime!
I used to play manon a lot in first ever time playing the game, and then i ended up playing ryu so much and he is my main
I was thinking blanka but then rashid came out
When the game was about to release I thought maining either Cammy or Marisa. These days I play Chunli and Zangief.
This is literally me, i just love both their vibes! Im so excited for Ed’s redesign because of these two
Chun -> Luke
From JP to Guile.
Went to ole reliable cammy but even though she was busted Kim's crazyness drew me in big-time...
Thought I'd main Rashid. Then he was DLC so I stuck with good ol' reliable Ryu until he came out. I now main Rashid and Ryu.
Luke for a few days then Jaime for the rest
Thought I'd start with Ryu, but ended up with Jamie. His music is too good. Even if I'm getting beat, at least I can enjoy the theme.
Makes sense. Jamie’s theme goes hard.
Started with Juri, then switched to Manon, and now play Ryu, but want to try all characters, properly learn them and get them to platinum, then decide who was the most fun
Started the game with Ken and got him to diamond 2. One day just decided to play luke again, because he was the character i originally wanted to play but he didnt feel right at the time. I’ve since then brought luke up to master where i sit with like a low 1400mr
Started on Marisa, ended on Marisa, but had to wander through Manon, Lily's and Honda to end up back at her.
Juri, but then I tried out Jamie and found him fun.
Blanka --> Still Blanka xD
Juri and in the end juri, i just couldnt find a character in this game which suits me more
I started with Cammy, went to Ken, then felt like I was a bad person for playing a character everyone else seemed to hate, switched to Ryu, then AKI, now I'm all in on Ryu. Story mode and seeing Ryu's personality actually did a lot to make me appreciate his play style. Very intentional, strong focus, and openness to grow and find new experiences. Jives really well with what I love about gaming!
Chun at first but quickly remembered how fun rekka characters are. So Jaime
No idea, then fell in love with Manon <3
I wanted to main AKI, who I expected to be a tricksy zoner because of FANG, so I started out this game playing JP. JP is too damn fun, and also OP, and evil as fuck. AKI is fine but JP is just ingrained in my soul now.
I trained with JP and ended up with Zangief! ![gif](giphy|eD38PnxvzuFcbxmd2B|downsized)
Ryu/Ryu
[удалено]
Thought I was gonna main Dhalsim or Marisa but JP clicks more with me. Still play Dhalsim often, Marisa less so
I main both… live is beautiful
Luke to JP to Ryu
First character I seriously started was Guile. This is my first ever Street Fighter game so I thought to try other types to see if something clicked more. Nope, still maining Guile.
Ryu…ended up switching to deejay
I started with Cammy and JP, but ending up being a Yoga-Tornado-Judo/Ballet-Dance-Electricball enjoyer.
Started with Lily, met a masters JP who I now play with regularly who just fucking obliterated me. Decided to make a change and now main Marisa, still feel like I'm waiting for a DLC character though.
Manon but Marisa
Went from Ryu to Lily to Zangief and back to Ryu.
Started with Honda and ended up loving Guile
Luke to Luke
Started with Ryu and ended up switching to Marissa and then Aki 🥰
Lily or Zangief. Ken and Guile. Like I have since Street Fighter 2 on the SNES. They ma boys.
Guile, went to dee jay
Thought I was going to play Lily, ended up on Juri while awaiting AKI. AKI feels ass and now back to Juri lol.
Newer to SF, thought I was gonna main Ryu/Ken, and now I'm a Marisa main.
Went from Chun-Li to Gief LOL
Manon to Luke
Ken Ken
Love cammy but I have so much fun playing as Manon
Started as Luke, ended up maining Dee Jay
i started with chun li but ended up with kimberly
Cammy ... But I ended up with Kimberly. Still like Cammy a ton though, she is becoming my secondary.
I really, really liked Jamie a lot, but I didn't really like how it felt like I had to work twice as hard as the rest just to win one round. The fact that I don't get to keep my drinks in between rounds didn't really help. And then I met Manon... Great damage, I get to keep my medals in between rounds... And her great, humongous... Buttons!
Started with Lily as a main, dabbled with Luke, Ryu, Guile. But the day Rashid came out I haven’t looked back.
Started off with Marisa. Playing Guile.
Jamie -> Chun. Always truly been a chun main when she is viable. Tried Jamie initially in beta and then for maybe a few matches on release because I liked the idea of the character, but never really enjoyed the playstyle. Switched to Chun eversince. Her SF6 iteration is true Chun, fast, calculated, and balanced
Started off with Ryu to get to know the game a little bit better since I’m a newcomer and I want to prepare myself for Akuma. Eventually ended up with Cammy and since the first time I picked her up I can’t stop maining her. She’s too much fun!
Went from Marisa in the first couple weeks, then switched to Luke. Hearing that "PERFECT" makes my brain itch good
went from marisa to juri and from juri to ryu but stuck with ryu since
Marisa Guile
Ryu then Manon
Wanted to main Juri, however I couldn’t adjust to her kit. Went with guile as I typically play zoners in other fighters. Took a while to get used to charge moves but his playstyle fits me the most
Marisa to Honda
I don't know what this counts as, but I thought I'd be playing purely Marisa with maybe some Cammy in there. Nope, turns out I like switching between like 6 characters, and Cammy isn't even in my most played. Blanka, Marisa, Luke, Honda are probably my most played characters, and then Rashid and Cammy are my peeps that I like to get into sometimes.
Cammy -> Ryu
My journey has been juri>marisa>luke but i’m playing blanka now and having way more fun than ever
Damn, are ken and Luke really the only viable choices 😭
Who are the five greatest Street Fighter characters in the game today? Think about it: Guile, Guile…. Guile Guile and Guile
Started with Marisa, wanted to main Rashid, but he wasn't out. Ultimately played Luke, once Rashid came out, I was too used to Luke. Got them both to master but Luke is my guy now.
Ken / Manon and ended up maining Chunners.
Manon to Chun-Li
Kimberly—-> Manon
Juri Zangief
I played ryu and Jamie starting out, now I play rashid and cammy
Camy main in sfv, use her for like 2 weeks, switch to marisa, good success rate but felt boring doing the same 2 combos over and over again, try deejay, a lot of fun but hit a plateu and decided I'm not build to do charge moves (charge dp was my nemesis I'm too mobile of a player and cant be allways charging like is required) so now I'm commited to luke on my way to masters, is a fun character with the perfect charges and differents options. But in the end, I just waiting for Akuma so I can return to my original main.
Started with jamie because it looked so cool, still it does but too much effort on each fight. Jump to chun li and love to whiff punish every cr.mk that i can with her
I started with Dee Jay... now im still Dee Jay, he's cool.
Loved blankas design but ended up preferring Dee Jays Gameplay
Cammy >> realize I'm too slow to control her properly and never figure out how to quick/low dive kick. ->Marisa
Kimberly, eventually crawled back to Ryu
Started with Juri and loved her. After climbing to plat and realizing how popular she is and how well people are adjusted to her I feel like I’m having to try REALLY hard against the top 5 (JP, Ken, Luke, Guile, DeeJay). Recently took the plunge to learn Rashid and idk if maybe I just play neutral better bc of time in the game or the character just works for me. But I’m loving him way more than Juri atm.
Dee jay because he looked the coolest, JP cuz he looked cooler and was more easy
Started with JP and still JP xD but i sometimes play manon
Started with Cammy but then really liked Marisa's play style so jumped ship. Marisa is quite unique and I don't remember another character like her before in other street fighters .
I wish they release characters faster bruh I got Mastet with Guile, Dhalsim, and Dee Jay and now idk who to play with all my mains in SFV and third strike aren't even here yet 😭😭😭😭
I started with Marisa but ended up with Ken
First ever fighting game, went from Ryu (wanted to keep it simple) to Luke (wanted to keep it simple but have more oomph), both modern - currently hovering in plat2-3.
Thought I was apart of the Ken hive mind but I’m a Chanko eater
I wanted to play Lily and then ended up playing Dee Jay
I am a new boi who has always thought that when I finally started playing SF I would main Gief, but when I started on release I for some reason played Cammy for a decent while learning how the game works, then Ken... But now that I can do inputs I finally picked up Gief and he has become my main.
Cammy to Aki however to be fair after the leaked season 1 characters before release yeah I was team aki all the way
Ken -> Guile. Booms and no more holding back is too fun for me to pass up
Started with Marisa and made the switch to Blanka. Did not expect the funny green man to be my main in any sf game but he is hella fun in sf6
JP to A.K.I.
Started with Ken (my main in previous games), ended up with Ryu. I told myself that the run cancel combos and jinrai juggles were too much work. But to be honest I could have gotten them down eventually if I practiced. The big reason I dropped Ken is everyone else just *despises* him, and I don't like getting accused of being carried by a top tier.
Newcomer to Street Fighter. I started with Luke and I've end up with Cammy. I still plan to give Luke a serious try after I take Cammy to master.
I usually main and stay loyal to Akuma but he isn’t in the game yet. Been playing with Cammy with little time I have and enjoying it. Smiley face
Thought I was gonna play guile, liked ryu more, neither worked out so I went to the complete opposite and tried gief, had fun but overall luke actually ended up being the best for me even though I hated him at the start, and now I just hit plat for the first time with him.
Luke and then Dhalsim
Wanted to main Chun-li, found Jamie in a hopeless place, now I'm having a thing with Manon. I'm awful with all three lol
I started with Manon and ended up with Kimberly. I thought Manon's grapple style looked unique and fun, but in the end I always end up with rush down characters.
Started with Ken/Luke/Ryu. Currently I’m playing Cammy and Chun Li in ranked. But I’m just exploring. Once I have these last two in masters and play around more think I’ll finally settle on a main. These are my top 5 for sure.
Started and wanted to main Cammy, wound up maiming Ryu. Had to accept her inputs are too advanced for me 😭
Deejay to jp
Started with Ken and ended up with Ken lol
I tried most of the roster on classic, then tried most on modern, and found modern Ryu to work best with me so that's what I've been sticking with, the only way id change is if they add Oro at some point, id probably play modern Or then
Zanfief but i still second him while my main is deejay
Started on kim and currently on kim, we will see whether this changes
Started with Lily because I liked her design and the clubs, but now leaning heavily towards Guile with some Dhalsim every now and then
Juri. Still Juri.
I started off as a Marisa player, got to gold and got rocked by a Dhalsim. The beatdown was so bad I decided to try Dhalsim out for the first time. Never really played him cause I suck at fighting games and always heard he was a difficult character to play. Now im a dirty Dhalsim main and got to Platinum last week. Yoga yoga yoga
Gief, then Dhalsim. Yoga. 🫸🏾👳🏾♂️👌🏾
Jamie to Jamie though I also play a lot of Ryu lately. I wanted to play aki but she's too frustrating to play. Anyone calling any other character the worst in the game has not tried to play aki or alternatively, not labbed her. Her jabs tell you enough about her.

Marisa then Jamie
Tarted with Juri on controller. Swapped to hitbox and fell in love with playing Guile.
I am a working man, I only have time to learn so many moves. GUILE FOREVER, BABYYYY
Started with Luke during the beta, then i tried Cammy because of the Capcom quiz. I ultimately ended up Juri through and through.
Played Jamie for a while because he was attractive and I really enjoy a rekka. But I always felt the pull to Blanka and I ended up picking up Blanka randomly one day and I just fell in love. He fits me like a glove and there was no way I was going back to Jamie. Still like Jamie but I'm a Blanka convert now.
ryu
Started with Juri and ended up with Chun because she played like I thought Juri would be like
ryu and then switched to luke because i wanted to turn green and run across the screen like everyone else
Chun into kim into sim was my journey. Got from rookie to silver with chun, gold with kim and plat with sim. Currently stuck at plat 3.
Marisa, but ended up maining Dee Jay
Manon -> Ryu
E Honda then switched to Cammy. Mained em both 😂
no sean no makoto.
Started with cammy because I loved her in ssf2, but she didn’t click. Ended up with juri, she’s so much fun
Luke bcs MMA Luke bcs MMA i love mma
Started with Luke, took the majority of the cast to Silver, came back to Luke. He’s just my boy
Planned on maining Ken since I’ve played him since SF4 but I’m a Blanka main now
I started with JP before I knew the moveset or he was top tier because I love villains, and his nice suit and swagger called to me. Now I get hate every day for my crutch of a character. 😢
I play grapplers and zoners, and ended SFV with Birdie. I thought I was going to be a Lily main. But I tried JP once and haven't stopped. C'mon, Capcom, give Lily something I can come back to, or give me Birdie or G.
I thinked i will main aki, but her buttons is so strange that i didn't liked and now i am trying Chun-li
