Is he the strongest character in the Street Fighter universe?

Is he the strongest character in the Street Fighter universe?

wouldn't Akuma be?

Nope Oro holds that distinction.

Was once. Not so sure now.
Necalli is a fucking pillarman and just ABSORBS PEOPLE so at that point he is probably the strongest.
Dictator is also pretty tough, cannon-wise. Often fighting multiple foes at once as as long as he has plot armor, he will always come back.

Cody apparently either fears or respects evil ryu but bodies regular ryu for free.

Juri is unknown but according to x tekken, Cody and Juri are about even.

Akuma and cody respect each others power but akuma acknowledges that cody is holding back and even Oni suggests that cody could beat him if he wasn't holding back.

Thats all i have so far.

Cool fanfiction, bro.

while we're just talking about stuff, some people might find it interesting that akuma said gen could easily wipe the floor with him if he wasn't so old

confirmed for never beating any version of sf4
its okay, heres your (you)

Gen, Oro, Akuma, everything else is bullshit. Akuma is the strongest because the other two are sick, old and dying

He has the greatest potential but doesn't train

I think it's something along the lines of

Oni > Oro > Akuma = Evil Ryu

I think maybe Gen, Seth, Gill, etc. are up there too somewhere

>Oro

is he really supposed to be akuma level warrior? I had no idea, I thought he was just an old weirdo, I've never gotten his ending in sf3 to find out

I'd wipe the floor with your bitch ass in SFIV, but that's not the point.

You're taking those win quotes out of context and misinterpret them. It's obvious you can't read, let alone play Street Fighter.

cody is the michelangelo of street fighter

someone thinks its cool to have an mentally unfit badass

I still remember Guy beating his ass in the FF ending, maybe this was some kind of samurai thing

there's a lot of fanwanking about who actually beats who, but there's no question that Oro is close to Gill level when he's using both arms

>I share his name
>Played as him vs my friends today
>I barely play any SF
>See this thread today of all days
What do these sign mean?

wew lad, how do you not cut yourself with your edge?
"taking win quotes out of context"
>Cites no contradicting sources
>brings nothing to the thread
>is lonely for companionship so starts a fight on the internet

if you play SF4 like you talk on Sup Forums you must be a pro tournament player eh user? I must of heard of you because you are so good eh user? the next justin wong eh user?

Whats your SF5 id so I can indulge in how top tier you are user?

Oni > E. Ryu > Akuma/Oro > Cody > Ryu
Necalli mite be stronkest tho.

>Cites no contradicting sources
That's not how it works. You make a claim, you bring the proof. You didn't because you knew people would tear your little headcanon to pieces.

I'm not a pro, but I can hold my ground. Currently at 5000 LP. What about you, user? :3

Apart from that: I don't know what my supposed skill has to do with your inability to fucking read.

>is lonely for companionship so starts a fight on the internet
Quite a bit of projection going on here. Also, you sound triggered because someone opposed your fanfiction.

Where does little miss "the origin of psycho power" fit in, or does Capcom consider her canon these days?

He could hold his own against a lot of high tier characters if he actually gave a fuck, but those at the top will demolish him.

I hope Cody gets his shot at finding peace and happiness if he gets into SFV.
He's not a bad guy, but he just can't seem to leave his baggage at the door, so to speak.
I guess he worries that he'd ruin a normal life through the trouble the world would eventually bring to him.
Maybe he reunites with Jessica, or finds another brawler like himself he can be comfortable around. He deserves it.

I hope he gets swallowed by Necalli. Cody is for fags.

Actually everything aside from Zangief's ending is noncanon

Cody goes gay for Guy in SFV. Ono said it's going to be revealed in the story mode.

>You're taking those win quotes out of context and misinterpret them
How?

I don't even get this. A thighfuck?

Of course you wouldn't.

So not a thighfuck then.

Why would he be? Only played 2

He's implied to be absurdly strong and only limited by apathy, though probably not top tier unless he has access to the Messatsu Go Hadou, which has never been implied.

The "strongest character" is whoever Capcom decides to hype up that week.

Okay let me break it down for you because of YOUR inability to read.

POST

YOUR

SF5

ID

:3

As for the rest, I cited my sources, the game was my source, you said "nuh uh" and then you shitted yourself. Its okay, babies often shit themselves. Thats why you are supposed to wear your diapers.

Now post your id so we can all laugh at how shit tier you really are.

>reading lore about SF characters
>suddenly read Cody's
>tfw he is literally me, a guy who tried to do the right thing and got punished for it

And apparently he is strong enough to be respected by Akuma. Funny I never even picked him when I played the old Street Fighter games.
He wasnt even the main character of Final Fight, what the fuck?

Na bro forced meme characters don't need to be canon godlike, Capcom never implied Juri is Oro level, etc.

Your supposed skill was brought up when you said you'd wipe the floor with him. No backing out now. Play him and don't be a bitch.

Again, why is my CFN ID important for the argument at hand? You're flat-out wrong and I told you how many LPs I have because I'm such a nice person. That's more than enough than you deserve.

>As for the rest, I cited my sources, the game was my source
Picture of the quotes? Links to them? No? Then you haven't sourced shit.

See above. The dude sounds like Bronze. Anything below Gold isn't worth playing.

No

>Where does little miss "the origin of psycho power" fit in
Literally goddess tier.

Cody is a bit deeper than that.
He went through Metro city fighting multiple guys (and girls) at the same time.
Now compare that to streetfighter. Sure the guys can do some crazy shit with spinning kicks and dragon punches but its a 1v1.

Cody and gang were fighting 2, 3, 4, 100 guys at a time. You have to be pretty fucking tough to not only do that but also to SURVIVE it.

Cody realized he liked fighting a bit too much. When poison framed him for her crimes, Cody just took it because to him, it didn't matter. In prison he could fight all he wanted.

While we don't know Guys' powerlevel, he apparently is strong enough that Dictator doesn't want to fuck with him either.

In terms of strength, the Final Fight guys are deemed to be pretty fucking strong.

Also
See
You shat the bed and now you are trying to pretend you didn't while we can all smell it before we even enter the room.
Thanks for the top fucking kek though xD

The Final Fight ending?
Guy sucker punches Cody with a short combo for some reason just as Jessica runs up behind them. Not even sure why he did it. It was hardly an ass beating.

>Oni not in Tier 1
wrong

Reading your response to the second guy made me actually start laughing. You're pathetically obvious, my man.

>Tier 2
>Q(hinted)

If this dude proves he is Gold League at the very least, I will play him. If not, he has squandered his chance to redeem himself and will be laughed out of the thread.

Obvious regarding what? Kobe doesn't go to random courts and plays with peasants. If he proves he's worthy, I will play him.

Last chance, by the way: Prove any of the dumb shit you spouted accompanied by your CFN ID or you're a faggot.

Yeah, so far SF5 seems to start with a clean slate. I welcome it though if it gives us 'facts'. I mean as far as fighting games go, everyone needs to have an ending but not that fighting games seem to have "storymodes" we can say for certain what happened rather than the tired old 'well, I guess this maaaaybe happened?'

The SF5 story mode patch can't come soon enough. That said, Why is Necalli after Ryu and not Akuma? Akuma (and Oro) are supposed to be tough guys so I hope (but doubt) we will get an answer to that in July.

>Discussing lore
>WHERE'S YOUR ID
>"Kobe doesn't go to random courts and plays with peasants"
This is some serious autism

Gouki (Akuma), Oro, Gil in the same tier. There is no such thing as Oni, Shin, or Cyber Akuma either. It's all the same guy using his full power or not (or the intent to kill if you would).

Cody is and will be nowhere near that.

If Ryu went E. Ryu, he would be stronger than Akuma.
Oro is way too strong, and Necalli knows it.

I don't even necessarily agree with the other guy but you're definitely the bigger faggot in this situation.
>will be laughed out of the thread.
no u

if he took off the cuffs

Ryu abandons SnH by SF3 and it is suggested that he will still be on Oro's level eventually.

Depending on what is actually canon in IV, Ryu's Dark Hadou was (temporarily?) sealed by Gouken and he faintly tapped into the Power of Nothingness.

I'd imagine the reason Necali is really interested in Ryu isn't because of Evil Ryu's strength, but because of the Power of Nothingness that Ryu will fully realize in typical Japanese Hero Epiphany fashion while the Bison & Necali stuff comes to a head. SFV's eventual story mode will likely see Ryu putting the Satsui no Hadou away for good and become the chill dude with lightning powers he is in SFIII.

Necalli will fuck Bison up, then he will absorb Ryu's SnH, and Ryu will fight him, with the typical Japanese Hero Fighting His Bad Half fashion.

>In prison he could fight all he wanted.

But he leaves all the time to fight people outside.
And his gf left him and he got jailed right after saving the city. If you ask me thats a pretty good reason to get your spirit broken and lose all hope.
All his scenes in dialogues in SF4, SFxTekken, etc all show how hopeless he is and that he really doesnt care anymore about anything other than fighting.

>Nothing but a shadow raging against that which cast it.

That list was LITERALLY taken from the plot guide.

Oro is the strongest.

>You will never have a Street Fighter set in the early 1900s with Oro and Gen as Ryu/Ken.

quality dicktuck

>Ryu abandons SnH by SF3
Will never happen or be retconned. Too much money in whoring out the stale World Warrior plotlines to give that up.

Yes and said "shadow" is a canon top tier powerful character, the fuck's your point?

Alright, where do we rank the big man on a scale of D to S?

This

>Story-wise, Oro is one of the most powerful characters in the series. Much of this power comes from him wielding the arts of Senjutsu, a Chinese originated martial art of mythical and legendary proportions. Through years of practice, he has full mastery over his body and ki, giving him monstrous strength and stamina far surpassing that of many other fighters, even in his old age. Oro's mastery of Senjutsu has also granted him immortality, telekinesis, and the ability to survive extreme atmospheric and environmental conditions; he is shown riding a plane by simply standing on it as it flies.

>As a result of the immense powers he has gained over the decades, Oro has bound one arm through the use of magic while fighting to give the opponent a chance in battle

No one even comes close to Oro in SF canon

just about, right below Ingrid

See

Probably A.

>Yes and said "shadow" is a canon top tier powerful character
Wrong

For a start Oni is a "what if" character and not part of the SF canon, secondly, its been shown he is weaker than Akuma/Gouki

it means you should play some alpha 3 with me and pick cody or something

I agree with you, but we have to remember real world timeline effects on the story.
In 1999, SF3 had no power of nothingness. Ryu just trained and fought and was pretty chill and good at fighting.
This new power of nothing, Ingrid, Necalli, Bison not being dead, its all new revisions since 1999.
Capcom have teased the power of nothingness but in-game it has never existed nor has it in any non-extended universe media.

Ono says the SF4 movies are canon so I believe that it does exist in-universe but back when SF3 was made, none of these concepts were a thing.

Now this will blow your mind possibly because it blew mine but Necalli is the "Ancient One". What am I referring too? Pic related!
(Super Streetfighter 2 Turbo)

I imagine that when combing through previous games, Ono or whomever read through EVERYTHING and so are making references all over the show. I expect as a result we may not only see the power of nothingness but also all sorts of forgotten lore from games past.

Not gonna lie, pretty hyped for storymode but I do seriously expect it to either be shit, or incomplete.
I will accept incomplete if they add to it whenever they add new characters, that would rock pretty hard in my books!

I imagine he beat everyone up in prison that was even remotely threatening and left looking for stronger fights.

wew lad,

TOP
FUCKING
KEK

Wakeupshoryu running his mouth then refusing to play again i see

Gill probably, if it's a fight to the death.

>he dude sounds like Bronze. Anything below Gold isn't worth playing.

There is some irony in the fact that most pros barely play online so they will usually have silver or bronze ranks

>Oni suggests that cody could beat him if he wasn't holding back.
No he fucking doesn't, Oni flat out tells Cody he will actually DIE if he holds back and calls him a coward who runs away from his problems.

Stop being such a pussy and fight, user.

I only picked him in Zero3 because we had the same first name.

> no one's posted the obvious answer

He's not going to play, he's a known shitposter from reddít.

He does this all the time, his name is wakeupshoryu

not canon
