[NeverYouMind]

Heihachi Mishima (Tekken)
Manliness, skill, power, money, style, and a pet Karate bear. He's got them all.

Joe Higashi (Fatal Fury)
The eternal optimist and all around goofball with unparalleled Muai Thai skill.

Yuri Sakazaki (Art of Fighting)
The slap you silly practitioner of Kyokugenryu Karate with spunk.

Fei Long (Street Fighter)
Sometimes you just want to play Bruce Lee and this adaptation hits closest to home.

King of Dinosaurs (King of Fighters)
If you want to tear your opponent apart like an animal and then Izuna drop them there is no finer choice.

It's really hard to pick just 5 though. I loved the newest Samurai Shodown, it's a shame that all the layers of paid exclusivity and lack of good netcode killed it, because it's a fantastic game. Granblue is probably my favorite fighting game of the last 10 years, but it's extremely dead on PC.

Alice (Bloody Roar 1)
Necroborg (Rise of the Robots 2)
R. MIKA (Street Fighter Alpha 3)
Cassandra (Soul Calibur 2)
