  • Picking a main in any fighting game can be a difficult process, but it doesn't have to be! In this video, I look at the 9 legal characters of Sonic the Fighters and go over some of the basics of their gameplay to help players decide who to main in the game.
    This video was made in part using research and frame data from Mystic Noodle, K.O.S. and Puppyluvv and should be seen as a follow up of sorts to my previous video on Sonic the Fighters' mechanics. That video is highly recommended as a primer before watching this one if you find any STF jargon confusing. Enjoy!

    I've played the game a decent amount casually over the years, and I was always invested in Fang over any other character. A major part of that is because for a lot of characters at a low level, the differences between punches and kicks feel very arbitrary. I never felt like I needed to use kick attacks, they felt redundant. However, with Fang, there is a clear difference between punch attacks and kick attacks, especially considering that his projectile punch attacks cannot break barriers, thus forcing one to rely on kicks early on. It felt like Fang had a complete moveset I needed to learn and engage with while everyone else had like half of a moveset in comparison. Naturally, at higher levels of play this isn't true at all, but for a new player up against other new players or the ai playing as Fang early on helped get me accustomed to actually using all three buttons and learning what circumstances promoted different attacks.

    Fighting game noob, Iron Tagger/ Potemkin main, and being my favorite sonic character along with being the only sonic game he is playable I have no regrets picking Bark even when I whiff a grab or move at the speed molasses. I consider it penalty training for grapplers in other games. Also Biff Baff animation is just too good.

    2:30 funny enough this makes sense. Virtua fighter 2 is probably the only poorly balanced game in the series. It’s also produced by Yu Suzuki & developed by AM2. & the best character in the game Lau also is the first opponent despite exploiting tons of techniques that make him better than the guy designed to be the best character in the game.
