For those that don't know kenny omega is a huge street fighter fan, he even has the hadoken motion as a move in his wresling.
He plays a lot of SF4-6 and he was also dressed as Cody for SF5's Cody reveal; also did a whole bunch of promotion and commentary for SF5.

Killer roster. It'll be interesting to see what they'll do with C-Viper cuz her kit in SF4 was a bit... hm, how should I say it... limited and not so interesting.

As a C.Viper player that still playing USF4, her kit is far from limited.
At least in comparison with either Fei Long or Makoto with are extremely limited to ground skills.

That might be the worst character reveal trailer ever made. Quite an accomplishment that.
Still very excited though, Sagat and Alex are literally my ideal additions to the game, and I actually don't mind Crimson Viper coming back and I'm trying to be open minded to Ingrid even though I kinda fuckin hate her. I'm just excited enough about Sagat and Alex to be totally fine with the others.

By limited I mean her move set and stuff she can do in comparison to other and more complex characters.
They upgraded her or somethin' from base SF4? I don't remember her kit being interesting and diverse enough in the base version. Same goes for Rose and her kit actually. I have't played USF4, cuz by that time I was done with SF4.

Awesome, I always disliked Ingrid (let's hope they fix her character design and gameplay to make her interesting) but Sagat, C.Viper and Alex were some of my most wanted returning characters.
Now for season 4 please bring back Geki, Maki, Fei Long and Sean, and for season 5 Haggar, Abel, Sodom and adult Sakura.

Many of the new characters have far more kit than the original cast. Rufus, C.Viper, Abel. Is the only way for Capcom to sell new players are Ryu and Chun-li still vasty popular members of the game.
Her shock for example, Ryu uppercut just gets stronger and slower as you use different kinds of punchs(low,mid,high), as for C.viper you get normal shock, lower shock and anti-air shock.
She always had a vast kit in comparison to other players, not to mention she have the higher jump of the entire game. She can cast cancel her own moves, cancel after-delay moves by fake trigger moves. I mean, most of the pro C.Viper players go nuts with her.
I would classify her as the most hard character to proper use in the entire game.
I mean, Makoto have fuck nothing in compasion.

Don't like Rufus, but thankfully he's not in SF6
To no one's surprise. Ryu is the easiest character to learn and use and he always has been, just like Ken.
I hope they'll have more to her kit this time other than shock, meaning more and diverse kinds of moves she can do to not always rely on shock and be viable both on the ground and in the air. I'm not a pro, but I played SF4 A LOT back in the day and almost unlocked all of the achievements. I mean, I like her design, but I just don't like her kit from SF4 that much on the base level and it's fine, not every character's kit can be liked by everyone.
P.S. Just watched the trailer. I've no words. Probably the worst character reveal trailer I've seen, but the worst part about it - I can't unwatch it now.

She is the most complex character . There's no character than can do cr.lk cancel feint , cr.mp cancel feint , cr.lk cancel feint and then a sudden launch burn kick that crosses up . She has a feint cancel into super jump that reach opponent everywhere in the screen , yes including point blank . Her burn kick can be canceled in every jump directions or from blocked jump attack which has insane mixup potential . Her cr.HP cancel feint cr.HP ex seismo super jump burn kick into ultra is probably one of the most damaging combo in the game with a single EX meter. She can also choose to sweep from that combo for oki . She also has a meterless DP that trades into ultra with counter hit . She can do all these in the vanilla version if I'm not mistaken , I don't remember every nuance but I have a friend that plays her in tournament level so I know how insane this character could be . Her only weakness was her wake up option and her burn kick can be dodged with low forward , but the latter can easily be faked .
Watch how Latif play and you might start wondering if this character can do everything , she needs insane execution to really unlock her . Her kit only felt basic for someone that can't execute it , and probably only the top 5% of SF players could .

Outside of Always Lite Ensnare Xtra all of those are going to be cancer to play against. You get projectile/flying knee spam, cross-up super hop kick/electric fist spam, and arc projectile/instant flashkick spam. I checked out after season 1 though so whatevah.

I have a suspicion that Marvel Tokon is going to eat SF6's lunch.
I wonder if they'll have a similar cadence of 4 characters per season. I feel like there's so much more that they can do with Marvel characters and with Sony and Marvel backing I wonder if they'll push characters out faster knowing that they have a larger roster of relevant characters to work with or just stick with the standard model. I think Mortal Kombat does 3 MK characters and 3 guest characters.
I feel like you could get to 80 characters within this game platform over the next 5 years or so.

Extremely stupid way to reveal it, most people don't even know who that guy is.

Completely different game styles, even if they're the same genre. SF6 won't feel anything if Tokon is successful, the same happened with SFV and DBFZ and god was SFV bad even.

If you don't think there's some level of crossover in the FGC, I'm not sure what to tell you here...

If you know anything about the FGC you'd know there's very little overlap between subgenres. SF6 plays very differently from an hyper fighter, you can play both and be just fine, most people will prefer one or the other though and stick to them.
This is just history, SF4 and MvC3U coexisted just fine.
Yes C Viper is pretty amazing and was the best of the new SF4 characters in terms of gameplay. Technical and interesting and I was wanting to see her come back throughout SFV but it never happened.

USF4 had a steam peak of 5,547
UMVC3 had a steam peak of 2,487
Street Fighter V had a steam peak of 14,783
Mortal Kombat X had a steam pack of 15,743
So, no I don't think I'd say they co-existed just fine. There is absolutely some crossover there and cannibalization. You're too focused on core players as opposed to casuals who make up the largest percentage of players.
Right now the vast majority of the FGC is on SF6 and Tekken 8 and some people playing Mortal Kombat 1. There's not much competition or crossover right now, but I assure you we'll see a big drop in SF6 players by the end of the spring next year as a result of Tokon.

I think she's fun to play but I can't stand her design or her character in general. That being said, I think I mainly just hated her being introduced to SF in IV as she just didn't seem to fit as a SF character to me, but I've accepted that, as a franchise, it's changed a great deal but I still love it and I'm actually somewhat excited to try her now. Then again, I'm no technical player, definitely nowhere near as good as most folks who really take winning seriously, (I just enjoy playing casually), so how she actually plays, as far as competitive viability, is always going to be far less interesting than how fun she is to play and how good her design is. For reference, I'm a Guile main, (scrub city here and proud of it), and I've also adores Alex and Sagat in the past titles, I've also mained Bison, Ken, and Akuma in past titles, and I've mained Terry and Mai in KoF and Terry in Garou, so the roster is kind of becoming my ideal roster now lol, so I'm pretty pumped. All we're missing now for characters I've gotten decent with in the past is Hugo and Cody, neither of which I expect to see hit VI, and I'm fine with it.

Age is catching up to Sagat. Lost some of his mass.

do not tempt fate do not contrain Wonder Woman's thighs do not do not
Cant wait to see the new C.Viper design.
Ingrid is certainly a choice, has she ever been playable in mainline Street Fighter?

It should honestly be a banable offense to start a thread that's just a title and a YouTube video. You shouldn't have to skim through the thread to try to glean whatever basic information should be in the OP. I just want to know what new characters are going to be added, and I imagine that's what most people who click on a topic like this are hoping for, rather than being prompted to watch an extended commercial with no context.
