CESTUS III

Well then do it with Akuma release somewhere in may/june would make sense CPT is supposed to start in june

Guess they will wait the proper begin of S2 , so maybe August/September? Hope to know even just S2 characters list asap

Don't follow Esports shit, but SF6 made me bet on one to get the shiny goods The internet be like "Cestus trust me, can't go wrong betting on that ANgrybird guy, dude just too strong pokemon best bet" Me "Angrybird i chose you!"

Tbh it was'nt Rog to end their association, was Ed abandoning him because did'nt wanted him at his side when Psycho Power will (likely) take over Menat told him "You two have rough times ahead", Ed will later realize these "Two" were him and Falke (the other that was suffering same PP nightmares), he literally tell to Rog he don't want him to get involved/hurt and while leaving will think about seek others like himself So he seek people going through same shit he's going on and free Falke... Knife and Gorilla guess joined later and probably don't go through same sufference, otherwise Menat would have said "you four"

1-Was'nt sure who said it, had doubts between you and somebody else but was sure the idea was expressed here before so thought was worth say it 😁 2- Yeah, we should consider that was setting the canon back to NG days, then stuff either progressed or even got retcon 3- I think we can count that period into same retcon SFV did with Gill becoming Emperor. Guess as today we can just consider that at some point the two orgs both existed without clash... that's the part still standing, then we know SFV events and how to "adjust" it to what we know back to SF3 4- i wonder if we can consider canon all the SF4 rival matches though (if yes then it's indeed a retcon) Back to SF3 i think the idea was up to NG begin having Dudley still never have been involved in "Street Fighter" stuff, just sticking to become a boxing Champion to recover the family's fortune... iirc the car was very last piece, wich got him involved What i mean is before SF4 material and going into SF3 Dudley and Rog was like if they was living in different worlds, the former at peak of his success as boxer getting fame and money, the latter as an has been losing to Alex in "Pride FC" style interstyles tournaments http://www.noe-v.com/images/articles/rf39.jpg Think the team back then really wanted show that distance... so if for a moment we don't know SF4 stuff made sense for them to make that Dudley just knew Rog as a previous era top boxer, given that Dudley sure seem the type that studied boxing history The strange part to me was that in SF4 Dudley seem to not recognize at all Rog (i mean as a famous boxer) 5- Yeah that part was super weird lol, felt like he was just justifying gameplay design choices with lore but at least has been smart enough to keep door open

My guess Bit of Ed gameplay, possibly balance patch info too? Announcement of next Fighting Pass wich should be released in few days (27th i guess)

Yeah it was you 😁

Thanks so much dude! 👍 With Alex covered, some thoughts RYU -Ryu needing SnH to generate denjin shit is interesting, think somebody here already mentioned it -Kinda related Shin Shoryuken coming out as result of "unprecedented surge of energy" makes me think how in 6 we see glimpse of his fist and muscles get boosted by SnH at start of Lv3 -For some reason Ryu respect for Dudley is so cool for me, just sells so well the aura of respect/tradition boxing deserve... to bad i fear we will not get him in SF6 YUN and YANG -The twins different philosophy on approaching martial path is so cool, you can definitely see that in real life, there's ever who stick to the book and try to do things 1:1 and who try to loose the form to seek possible evolution -It's fun how somehow their character next to fight style feels kinda opposite to the usual cliché... Yun who stick to the technique is the energetic/instinctive one, Yang who breaks the technique is more cold minded and thoughtful... usually it's the "hot head" portrayed to break the technique -Love how they seem to be not only protector of the city in the sense of keep streets safe, but they seem involved into try to support it's success/wealth DUDLEY -For whatever reason i love he goes purposely out of ordinary boxing despite being designed to be perfect boxing incarnation... it's kinda like if he reached the perfection of the style for how we know it, and now it's pushing it's evolution NECRO -The part of extreme pain and not be able to stand make sense considering thanks t sf3 sprite we seen they sawed his bones multiple times. Necro's skeleton it's literally like Katsumi Orochi's imaginary one -The idea follow up experiments will be killed only to charge their data on Necro's matrix-like chip to upgrade him it's creepy as fuck, love it. On paper the chip is OP shit, definitely his most underrated asset as fans usually think at him just considering rubber body/electric stuff but on reality the chip alone would still make him a deadly fighter even without these superhuman abilities... considering in SF big picture he's just generic tier freak, they did surprising effort on describe his powers -Ideal woman having "soft body" possibly hint us something about Effie's body modifications IBUKI -Love how ths Q&A shows difference between her people's Ninjutsu and Guy's Bushinryu... Ibuki is extremely talented at taijustsu (hand to hand combat) but is seen as barely useful, while for Bushinryu's standards Guy who's extremely just as much (and likely much more) talented at taijutsu it's the fucking Grandmaster lol. It's interesting she actually have her village ninjutsu mindset, she's simply very talented at fighting but not because she prefer/love it, in fact she seems to see it as waste of time and even use kunai to get work done faster... her taijutsu natural talent seems kinda unintended -Cool to see despite very rural appearance most advanced countries would hire ninjas of the village for high level intelligence shit -Fact they send her to learn not only english but even accents to work under fake identities is funny, the idea of her with blond wig speaking with texan accent crack me up -Lol at them casually throwing infos on G Fucking File as last part of an Ibuki Q&A like nothing (as if SFV G name is'nt casual it's biig shit) ORO -Oro considering to unseal the arm to play videogames is legendary lol Bit strange he have to "consider" it as in same Q&A we know he can switch from 1 to 2 arms without much effort, as he does it to eat -I liked the part where say his eyes may see differently from regular humans... wonder if he can SEE aura/ki, that would explain him being so conscious about fighters potential (like when in W quotes he value Ryu, Gill or Ken) KEN -No reason to find it fun but Ken though on Ryu's Shin Shoryuken cracked me up, indeed it is -Answer on Ken realizing Ryu is different is interesting also for how is written... it's starts claiming they're even but make you realize they're not, more like they're even during current state of things. Guess Ken is starting to grasp what Oro could see cleanly SEAN -Cool to see confirmed Sean has been trained in Matsuda Jiu Jitsu, i mean we knew it thanks to SFV, but this Q&A is much much older so it's the first real confirmation... wish they remember it, another pure Ansatsuken is the last thing SF needs, if i must get Sean in SF6 give me Ansatsuken/MJJ/brawler mix -Sean biting Ken is awesome, fit so much Headbutt Sean (or Ground and Pound Sean) i remember from SF3, not that SFV pussy lol -Sean being at risk of SnH is reasonable given we're told he may lose control while fighting... that explain also Ken KTFO him for the bite, was'nt about pain but about give Sean an hard lesson, if that's Sean's character Ken have to fix it otherwise he would be unfitting to learn advanced Ansatsuken just like Dan -Love he have desire to develop his own special moves, it reduce the risk of get another Ryu/Ken "ETCETERA" -The answer on how Secret Society > Shadaloo and Bison being somebody's puppet would have made our Daemos go crazy for pages. Hope the guy is doing well wherever he is -The way he cuts Sagat chances to bring Muay Thai to SF3 is painful even many years after lol. Wich remind me we should learn from the past, MT rep in S2 or riot -Answer on why Ryu does'nt need to be the lead char to be Ryu is gold, too bad SFV did'nt listen lol

It's Tom's time 😄 used this as base

Used this as base (click for full size)

First thanks for the work, based on Alex alone that seems legit awesome 👍 But for some reason i can't see shit below, maybe because i don't have an account? You know if there's another way to see the pics? EDIT: i'm doing some google search found some direct links if anybody is having same problem as me Not everybody but still something 😁

Wait wait wait... we got other characters Q&A, it hought there was only Alex lol Btw Ryu in SF6 said something strange about Sakura that may hint something 😁

Agree Fun thing i got a Tom created character too, later i post it lol Line could stop here and apply to about every SF character ever 🤣

That's so fucking cool, only one char in and already there's lot to discuss... hope he continue Few considerations - I ever thought Tom to be indeed very strong, but more or less around Alex's level. I was more or less spot on thinking Tom having greater technique and Alex compensating with being larger/stronger... to some extent how i ever tought Nash and Guile, with the latter that ever felt like less skilled but stronger/tougher guy One guess i made back then was that further hint Tom is that good, is that ill usually does'nt fuck up fighters, as see them as valuable precious creatures for his new world... this made me guess Tom was so good to force him into a serious fight rather than hold back/soft sparring I also have the theory Tom may have defeated Urien, as Urien for some mysterious reason hate Tom (add that maybe also know Gill defeated him, would further worse the humiliation) But learning Tom is supposed to have big gap above Alex, actually by the answer even physically Alex consider Tom the superior fighter All this make me think even more that Gill vs Alex may have been to some extent a troll job (like often Gill does) We know Tom admitted Gill fucked him up in a fair fight... and Tom seems to be much better than Alex Later with Oro we learn Ryu and Gill are around same level, and we know Ryu it's absolutely superior to Alex (literally perfect him, showing him there's a whole league above) -Vague answer about him having brothers/sisters is interesting, open door to bunch of theories (in particular involving Secret Society) -The vague answer about Ryu maybe it's related to Q&A covering just NG, while later in TS they fought Would love that, hope they did'nt gave up on Alex lore to focus on Luke... lucky SFV ASF still recognized a future ahead for him Btw yeah even without rights hope they stick with Jean Reno look, at least to some extent To help that one cool detail about Tom profile is his "likes": Patricia, training, croissants, Alex Croissants may link him to France, be it wink at Reno or hint about potential link to Remy's story (or both) Being italian (where is pretty common breakfast food, just got one lol) no idea if for americans/New Yorkers croissants are a bizzarre choice or common there too, but would not be first time Capcom use food in the likes thinking at the character national/cultural background Would be ok with Remy making it into SF6, guaranteed new design would help him lot too lol If ever happen hope they would take it as chance to make him Savate rep... or better to be more accurate Remy using open hand for slaps and palms make his style more like Chausson or very early street Savate, the "ancestor" of what later became the "sport Savate" we know today wich like kickboxing for arms strikes just use normal boxing techniques Considering how anachronistic SF is it's possible Remy without father could have learned it in Paris streets

Well, guess it's kinda inevitable considering the pattern of SF6 alts 👍 Just as aesthetic point would not have complained to get two takes on the tribal style (one new maybe kenyan dress, other being classic design), but as said i'm fine as long i get at least one... and tbh admit it's indeed more coherent her getting mixed stuff since we know she did'nt spent whole life with her tribe in Kenya, as canon wise she has lived in France and Japan too Maybe not as standard/first, and second MUST be Classic, but as third i would not mind if they wink at Nadia

As somebody who hates whole urban/modern shit and love good old Super Stereotype Circus 2 I allow it as long i get classic Elena as Alt But stage needs to be shameless savannah safari with elephants, giraffes, rhinos and shit cheering on background

Also my YT page reading my mind and spamming Tyla videos help in that direction lol Elena and Laura in new engine

See Eddy Gordo in action remind me SF6 must give me Elena in Season2

Not only that but him having short hair currently make perfect sense lore wise 👍

Yeah, actually even on avatar may make sense not show the face (or anything else) , to keep it whatever the player made it look like One thing i noticed by the artworks is it's true Bosch had the scar also before the explosion, but the color changed... original was normal scar tissue, now seem getting charred turned it black/dark gray Super short hair also make sense as long hair of begin got burned Overall i hope when he will end up playable one day (not sure if S2, i think to make a parallel with our Avatar progress they may wait late seasons to consider him SF main cast worthy... also because if he become main cast our avatar would use him too as Master), i hope we get also original Bosch design wich i liked a lot and i already pick it over whatever modern/urbanized shit they will invent for standard short-hair Bosch lol Give me OG Bosch (right) as first alt and tournament Bosch (centre) as 2nd alt... throw in trash can OG without red cloth (left) Yeah lol iirc back when we was discussing this, i made the joke in SF if they say you're dead you're probably alive lol Btw as said also Yua's words where huge hint, was something like "does'nt matter what happen to him, Bosch will ever return to me" Another point made in the past, speaking of Yua our avatar words were even bigger hint... if he was dead, after beating JP avatar would have took the body (wich looked charred but still entire) for the funeral and his family/Yua will know Avatar had to tell that because can't break the secret Bosch survived

Yeah, we spoke about it before but the pics you posted are super clean compared to the material we was using (screenshots made by the first dude who noticed it and made a reddit post), wich help us get final confirmation is indeed Bosch 👍 Another kinda anime foreshadow was his lil sister Yua words, she's sure he'll back no matter what The pink hat is the same he bought in the first mission with our avatar (timestamped) Bosch started have good time after passing bit of time with our avatar, there's a cutscene where clearly imply that would love continue that life but he can't (as he have his mission to free Nayshall from JP) I like the idea he refused help first time, but now changed his mind The hilarious part is how useless has been under story pov Avatar beating JP's (JP himself laugh about it) We did'nt killed him We did'nt captured him We did'nt achieved shit lol Guess one possibility is Avatar at least took Bosch body to give him decent funeral, only to discover that he was still alive and transported him somewhere (Nayshall rebels cave-HQ?) then was chosen live undercover at Buckler being safest option for him I think in S2 we will find him as NPC at Buckler HQ, curious to see his moveset if is changed... very first Bosch used Luke style because was training at his gym, but after we seen bit more of his unique style, even if was Psycho Power version, would like see a version of the latter without purple shit lol Speaking of PP wonder if he's clean now or got still some inside his body EDIT: @bakfromonbeen faster on the hat 😄

I also like it because beside being visually nice remind me this and on general old pieces where Ryu interact with the new hero (even if lol at Abel being SF4 hero) SFV lacked it, even if story mode tried to compensate lol

Don't give much fucks but pic is cool
