Outside of Juri's chest getting bound to fit Lilith's design (Sakura would've been a better fit IMO), I like the VSav outfits. I'd like to see my main Abigail get a Victor costume and Chun-Li dressed up as Lei-Lei. Dhalsim as Lord Raptor would be pretty amazing too IMO.

Another KOF lore master here. Chizuru's big reason for her acting all business at first was that her sister (Who was far more talented at manipulating the Kagura Mirror artifact and practicing the family's martial arts) was murdered in the lead up to her debut in KOF '96. Before that, Chizuru was thought to be a bit of a goof-off that illegally street-raced Motorcycles for fun (With her deceased sister being her mechanic) and slacked off on the fight training and business school stuff because no one expected her to be the heir to her family's vast wealth and influence. As for her dowdy personality in KOF 2003, well, she was being manipulated by a member of the group the boss of that game was part of. Why? As of KOF XIII's story mode she's powerless, no longer fighting and running her family's various businesses. Unless we get another dimension-hopping boss like XIV's in a new game that brings an alternate-universe Chizuru into the mix, I don't expect her to be playable in a new KOF for some time.

Amen. I don't even try to go there anymore.

Najd looks pretty rad. Her mystic abilities look more suited to a boss character IMO, but she fits XIV's design language quite well. Now, who could the last character be? Because my first choice of Blue Mary is looking unlikely now...

I would try to get some games of SFV in with y'all, but I'm stuck working until the 24th and then I've got a small tournament to attend to... On the plus side, I can show up early and get some time in before the rounds start.

Hey y'all. First time on this forum and in this thread. As somebody that never played Street Fighter too much after Third Strike (And wasn't very good to begin with), I feel like SFV is a game that players need to have planned breaks every now and then because the sense of burnout is strong with this one. Of course, this is coming from somebody that can only really practice and do couch casuals for around 5 hours a week because of real-life stuff, but for whatever reason I feel... Not a sense of urgency to get back into playing, but a sense of "OK, I'll digest my knowledge for a day or two, then get back into the lab to put in work".

@Darc_Requiem Like I said on the old forum, reading through these profiles has inspired me to type up a character of my own that I've had in my head for a bit. It began as a legitimate attempt at making a female King of Fighters MC that didn't suck or use T&A to draw people in, but now the it has kind-of sort-of mutated into a parody of several different SNK protagonists in all but name. Somebody liked the idea enough to draw concept art and color it though… I'll post it in this thread when it's done. I have a moveset already typed up, but it's not in SFV style and isn't as technical in terms of notations, frame data and what-have-you.

Long time KOF fan. Put a lot of time in every version of '98 and some of 2k2's versions. I didn't really like how XIII played, but I like XIV despite the substandard graphics. I can't wait to try out Oswald & Heidern.
