Who is truly the best fighting game protagonist
>>12075049Liu Kang because hes not afraid to kill the other chumps
>>12075049Liu Kang is not the protagonist anymore. He and Raiden switched places.
>>12075049
>>12075049Terry>>12075157based
>>12075157Based
>>12075058Liu Kang is obviously the protagonist in the newer MK games
Anyone of those, except the Tekken guys (and maybe Liu Kang).
Tohno Shiki, of course.
>>12075049Terry>Memorable catchphrases>Hotblooded personality>Unique fighting style>Defining storyline: guy on the streets goes after the big bad rich villain that killed his dad, takes in villain's son and raises him as his own>Fatal Fury->Mark of the Wolves shows passage of timeMark of Wolves made his design even more badass with the bomber jacketTerry's overall design from visuals to narrative is simply masterclass.
>>12075057Well actually Liu Kang was dubbed the most heroic because he was the only character without a true fatality, his finishers were non lethal
>>12075386One of his finishers in the latest game is teleporting both himself and his opponent near a black hole and just holds the person there, slowly being pulled apart by the gravitational force of the black hole. Liu Kang's fine because he's an elder god now

>>12075417That's not me I'm the OP
Terry is the only MC of a fighting game franchise that I consistently use, unless we have collectively decided that Morrigan has stolen Demitri's role as the star of Darkstalkers. There is also Asuka from Asuka 100% that i rather like since she is some chemistry class geek that uses chemical reactions to throw out hadokens. Bad Mr. Frosty in Clayfighter is also pretty cool.
It's that retarded thread by kevin smith again

>>12075058This is the retro board though. We don't care about any of the gay new shit.
Who wins in a fight between them? Terry beat a Roman god in the anime but I don't know his feats in the game canon
The apple guy in Samurai Showdown.
>>12075535>The girl trying to fit in with the FGCLmao
>>12075557He beat the anchient immortal spirits out of two little boys.
Bad Mr. Frosty
I can't think of any boring protagonist characters that I like in these games because they are all boring. Well except I guess I like Mario in Mario games, but who cares about that when it's Smash Bros., wherein he is boring.
>>12075049mitsurugi or siegfriend.
Kazuya or Jin because they have the best movesets and are the most fun to play as out of these
>>12075342Look's so fucking lame, it's your average harem lead from the 00's
>>12075957He's too cool for you
>>12075049Ryu is not a "protagonist". He's just a guy who likes to fight.
>>12075049Kazuya because doing electrics is fun and having a villain lead is cool. I like how all the Tekken leads are people that get consumed with anger and become villains, although I don't think Jin should have followed that path. Haohmaru is cool because he kills his opponents.And Terry is great because he's such a 90s guy with being annoying about it.
For me, it's Kasumi
>>12075386>his finishers were non lethalWut?In MK1 his only finishing moves were that cartwheel uppercut and a stage fatality. His uppercut could arguably be called less lethal (as less lethal as an uppercut that sends you high enough to go off screen can be), but considering it's called a fatality in game, it's definitely a killing move. The stage fatality speaks for itself, and you could also do the cartwheel uppercut off the pit, confirming the lethality of that move.In MK2 one of his finishers is turning into a dragon and eating half the opponent, and his special uppercut returns, retaining its fatality classification.In MK3 he either incinerates the opponent or crushes them to death with an arcade cabinet. No arguments there.
>>12075990Protagonist doesn't mean hero
>>12076004She's hot but I never played those games cause they seemed redundant after Tekken, perhaps wrong but how it seemed
Doryaa!
>>12075538
>>12075538>>12077138REKT
>>12075049Liu Kang would fuck Chun Li
>non lethal fatality
Kazuya and Jin.
Jin circa Tekken 3/Tag
>>12075537Who cares faggit
>>12075049why's the tekken guy on there twice
>>12075537
>>12075049Terry is the coolest, Ryu is the most iconic, even though he's got a "less exciting" stoic and disciplined martial artist personality. Haohmaru gets an honorable mention.
>>12078203Terry is a dweeb
>>12078224Are you ok?
