Rashid Confirmed for Street Fighter V

So people are saying Juri is going to be a no show? Too bad, she was starting to become an interesting character. Though there's still some spots left.

New character should be fun to play as. The design looks nice.

Off topic: Part of me wishes Capcom could borrow Terry Bogard from SNK for this game. I mean it's not like they're making console games these days, and it's just wasted talent at this point.
 
Awesome design, I can't wait to see all the special kind of cool stuff you can do with his tornados.
 
So, I'm guessing nobody thinks this Rashid character is a lazy design... a fucking guard from Aladdin. So. Fucking. Lazy.



I guess Street Fighter fans are just getting the art style they deserve. Or maybe I'm the fool for thinking that Onotroll would come up with cool characters like these

These two characters are horrible. Rashid is a way better character design and fits perfectly in the SF cast.
 
Seems ok, looks like he has a multi-directional fireball like Juri maybe? At point in that short video, a fireball goes up about 45 degrees rather than straight across.

I don't know if I'd say the design was lazy, they do try and be pretty 'iconic' to the region of the fighter, so there's usually some stereotyping going on with SF designs. Also, maybe I'm stupid but I thought "Rashid" was going to be female, doh!

I think this pretty much confirms the rumoured new characters now one of them has turned out to be correct.

Looks like it arcs to me. Started straight and then arc'ed up at the end of the animation.
 
Really didn't know how to react to the design at first; I did the same thing as the guy filming lol. But it's funny that this was the most "obvious" option after all the teases.
 
Looks like a Tekken character. What happened to Capcom? SF characters used to have a great design without draw on overused stereotypes.
Can't tell if this is bait or not

Drawing on overused stereotypes is like SF's entire thing and always has been

See:

Zangief, Dhalsim, T Hawk and Fei Long in SF2

Elena and Hugo in SF3

Rufus, Fuerte and Hakan in SF4
 
STREET FIFGHTER V!

(IGN... lol)

Edit: He looks pretty cool. His Critical Art is lame and his scouter looks very poor, but he looks like he would be fun to play.
 
Ok, now that I've seen the reveal in HD I must say he (and his moveset) looks better than I'd expected. But still a character I most likely won't play.
 
looks great... The pronunciation is wrong.

He says Ra' sheed. But his name is Ra' shid. The "i" is silent and it should not be pronounced with a double ee.

Minor quirk... lol
