Not exclusive to fighting game characters, mind you.

What do you mean OP? They're hanging just fine

Venom is my favorite Marvel character so naturally I'd like to main him in MvC, but I have always sucked with him.

I have no idea how to play Dhalsim.

Miyamoto in any game he's in. The way diagonal movement works in Raizing games + the his speed feels so strange to me still, but I just need to play him more

Angel is one of the hardest KoF characters but not impossible. Way better in 02OG than most other games though.
Basically she all boils down to "unchain". This is a custom combo that can have a custom starter, middle and finisher. Middle moves can also be linked into each other in some tricky ways. Finally, there's the "dodge" move that can cancel a part and make Angel do a quick dodge back or forward (fully invincible in 02OG, got nerfed later), and also a "teleport" move that can be used similarly.
The cool part is how it all comes together. You can whiff cancel some parts to make a stronger move come out faster, create some crazy mixups, there's also the DM that is safe on block (in 02OG), and finally again in 02OG she even has an infinite.
The problem is that otherwise she has virtually nothing, no DP / projectile, bad neutral, the damage on unchain can be surprisingly bad too (especially if it's not 02OG), and some stupidly hard execution barriers that filter even pros (see: cr.A > b,f+K cancel).
All in all very complex and unorthodox character, great in 02OG but hardly worth the effort in other games. You absolutely want to know KoF basics to a T before you even touch her, like how to use her crossup, how to defend vs jumps without DP, how to mix and start offense and so on. If you're new, just don't bother unless you want to suffer and drop the game.

anakaris is really cool

>>11245550
I think this is true for most people, though I've also heard Dhalsim is bad in general
>>
>>11245550
Not really an SF2 guy myself but… Dhalsim simply has a tool to reach almost any part of the screen. Learn what works at what range, and use it in that range. Obviously, watch some SF2 matches. He's one of the most well rounded top tiers, can win vs anyone really

You don't even know what game he's talking about

>>11245745
You're right, I assumed he meant SFII/SSFII/SSFIIT though I guess it could be MvC2 or anything

I only play Yuka and Kaori mostly

brad wong in the DOA series, he's my favorite zui quan archetype character in any fighting game but he's the hardest one I've tried, even harder than lei in Tekken or shun in VF

>>11244928
angel is fucking difficult and I've been playing fighting games for almost 20 years. at one point I got the hang of her and then after I stopped playing KOF for a few months I lost whatever hang of her I had and I haven't been able to get it back. bizarre yet extremely interesting character

>>11245550
in my opinion the only game where dhalsim is comfortable to play is SF4 and that's not retro yet I think

also on the topic of DOA, ryu hayabusa. why is he so fucking hard?

Hsien-Ko is cute, her and her sister's lore is cool, but I just suck at playing her. Pretty much anyone that isn't just the normal straight forward character of a game
>>
>>11246194
i agree with this. darkstalkers is just built for speed and q-bee dominates that front. hsien-ko is a victim of being total shit in mvc3, at the same time.

I just always button mashed. Seemed to work out.

>>11245586
My sister is such a big fan of him that when she wants to play Darkstalkers she asks to play "the game with the mummy in it".
He's the only thing she can consistently remember about the game.

>>11250834
No wonder. His sprites are very well animated and cool to look at.

Literally any character in this game except for Viper II and Raiden.

Pazuri is indeed notorious for being a difficult character to grapple with, but as far as I'm aware she isn't retro.

The cover art is a trainwreck but the visuals in the game itself are great

>DOA 1 Ryu
lackluster
>DOA 2/3 Ryu
well rounded, but not as flashy as other characters outside izuna
>DOA 4 Ryu
becomes almost broken, nice pokes and combo potential
>DOA 5
not as dominant as 4, but honestly have the most fun experimenting with stances and ninja fuckery
ongyoin can answer almost anyone if you play it correctly

>>11253808
I was saying that about the game itself. It looks kinda fun though.
