Wow thanks for the heads up that this list is shit like the rest of eventhubs “contributions” saw the self righteous racism rant with fuerte and already was doubting this garbage.
As a Mexican I can tell you that El Fuerte is not slightly offensive at all. We love him over here because we love seeing our culture represented and interpreted in different media.
Why would he be offensive and not Chun li or Ryu? Lol All characters are caricatures of real things, leave it to uptight white people to decide which ones are OK and which ones are somehow offensive.
And that's not all the characters from Street fighter you never mentioned the Eagle Maki, and Ingrid. pacifically in Street fighter alpha 3 Max on PSP.
@@hugostiglitz491 I'd have to disagree honestly, while ryu is really popular and really iconic. Who doesn't know the "GET OVER HERE!" followed by the meanest ass whooping you've ever received.
I'm honestly offended man, when I saw her pop up I was like Let's go, and then he completely steamrolled over her.....must have had his ass handed to him online by more than one Cammy player LOL. How dare he literally disregard my wife's existence in this universe. In my opinion, Cammy is almost as important as Chun-Li is to Street Fighter.
No matter how much Capcom tries to captivate us with other protagonists, because the truth is that Ryu is and always will be the soul of Street Fighter.
Funny thing, when Street Fighter 2 released, he was one of the last characters I bothered to pick when dropping in a quarter. Thought he was sorta boring when I was younger. I always went for Chun Li, Blanka, or Guile.
Yea, I guess Ryu is the centre of attention but I Like Ken Because of his character development and moveset. This might seem werid but I played SF4 with ken And that's pretty much the only character I use
@@patrickwagner6247 I remember when Street Fighter 2 came internationally (I am from Asia) they kinda make Guile as the main star of SF2, the adverts and game magazine focus alot of Guile on almost all magazine cover and even appear as main character in the Van Damme movie to. I think it was in 1994 when the much better Anime movie that came out in VHS that properly set Ryu as the true main character internationally.
Before I even watch the video, I know Dan Hibiki is sort of the joke of the street fighter series, but he's the embodiment of trying your best even if you look like a fool. All Dan wants to do is honor his father's legacy, and while he isn't exactly good at it, the fact he tries his hardest makes Dan all the more cool for me
Geez, just completely shafted Cammy lol. People like her for more reasons because she's hot and strong. She's probably the most vicious female character that isn't a villain with a hard hitting moves meshed with a high intensity rushdown playstyle that is great to learn the game with. She also is one of the only female characters that is consistently animated and drawn with a focus on power/muscle and strength than finesse/grace like Chun, Ibuki, Sakura, etc. That's what I like about her anyway.
El Fuerte is one of my favourite characters in SF series: funny and has one of the most unique and fascinating fighting styles. He's a luchador and particularily Rey Mysterio reference.
I find it very funny that they think that Mexicans are offended by the character of El Fuerte since if you ask a Mexican they will tell you that they like that character, however what we Mexicans do consider offensive are the characters of Thunder Hawk and Lily that clearly they are *NATIVE AMERICAN* but they want to sell us that they are Mexican
You're right bro, I prefer El Fuerte over Thunder Hawk and Lily, the only Mexican characters created by Capcom that have been worthwhile are Amingo from Marvel vs Capcom 2 and El Fuerte from Street Fighter 4
Vega is my favorite, he's so unique I mean Ryu is a legend but we can find a lot of characters like him in fighting games but we'll never find someone like Vega
We can find characters like Ryu because a lot of characters are based on Ryu. Ryu is to fighting games as Superman is to comics. I hope we see Vega in SF6.
I like most of the Street Fighter 3 characters like Elena, Dudley, and Makoto. Necro, Twelve, and Q has some potential. Also besides F.A.N.G. and Necalli, I also liked the newcomers of Street Fighter 5 like Laura and Menat and I think Ed & Falke have potential if done better.
Laura needs to make up her mind on what hairstyle to have and a change in personality. Ed and Falke can't get much worse so any changes would be an improvement.
Wasn't it confirmed that Oro is one of the only characters who can defeat Akuma at full strength? Like, I remember reading that they one time fought and both agreed to call it a draw, because they'd destroy both themselves and the planet if they continued.
This is obviously subjective but good list overall. Really nice to see Juri so up high for a relatively new character compared to the original World Warriors. She's definitely here to stay.
I still think it was to biased thoward SF2 characters. Like E Honda and Fei Long especially are such generic and shallow characters, it's been done better before and since SF2 and they bring nothing to the archetype. They have nothing to do this high, their icon status is purely due to how old they are, and even then they are completely disposable characters. And though they aren't as bad, T hawk, Blanka and Dee jay aren't that much better and even Zangief has much room to improve. What I don't like about this is that these characters always get the priority in rosters, I think this is especially bad in SF5 and 6 where they take up half of the base roster. There isn't even a single character from alpha and 3 in the base roster of sf6, but apparently blanka, honda and Dee Jay of all characters had to make a come back over Sakura, Ibuki or Yun. You have characters like Sean, Yun and Alex that scream SF6 and yet a green guy that makes no sens in the game's art style gets priority. For me Ryu, Ken, Chun, Akuma and arguably Dhalsim, Guile, Cammy and Vega are the only SF2 characters that deserve a come back.
@@artimist0315Fuckin THANK YOU! I swear to God, I understand that some characters are iconic and therefore will get special treatment, but there’s a limit to how far you should take that shit. Especially when the characters in question are getting so much biased attention in spite of being such shallow characters. Sakura, Ibuki, Yun, Sean, Yun and Alex should’ve gotten the priority roster spots since they match the themes of streetfighter six much better and more importantly, have more room to grow as characters
Aside from just being the SF3 Guile standin I really like Remy's color scheme and I especially think the low Boom is really cool to sorta mirror Sagat having a traditional and a low fireball.
My biggest issue is with Cammy. There’s a ton more to say about her than “she hot and usually really strong.” I might have put her in the top 5. She’s arguably one of the pioneers of the rushdown style and undeniably still one of the best in fighting game history.

Thanks for posting this. Now I won't bother with the video. My comment said: If Gen is not number one, this list is trash. Ranking him low shows they have awful taste. He's the best fighting game character in existence. Fantastic story, personality and fighting style.
The thing that Street Fighter has always suffered from is the story aspect. Lots of interesting designs, such as Necalli, that ended up on the cutting room floor for future games because Capcom never takes the time to flesh out their characters. The focus on waifus, while welcome, is also a factor and takes away from characters that deserve more props, such as Urien and DeeJay. Look at all the costumes Chun-Li received in V but so many other more characters lack in the alternate costumes department. It's terrible. All for the sake of the waifu. There needs to be an equal amount of love for the characters in the roster when it comes to little things like that.
That terrible story in 5 had NOTHING to do with "waifu's", they just didn't want to hire a better writer. And Chun-Li getting more costumes than anyone else is entirely because Capcom knew they would make the most money that way. Characters like F.A.N.G. were largely unpopular, so why would they waste money creating content for a character barely anyone liked or used. It's all tied to profit, it just so happens that hot whamen are highly profitable.
@@serv-on Not completely untrue, but now that the official overview of Ken's story is out; there's way less people being upset and if anything; Ken's current change is very welcomed.
"His wife, on the other han -" Brilliant. Laughed my ass of at the timing of this 🤣 Great video, guys. John, you're great at these, dude. Keep it up. "PSYCHO CLEUSHAH!" 👍
He just decide that characters he's bad with are low tier... Like common Ed being one of the weakest ever when he's actually a fan favourite? He is saying bullshit
Everyone thinks he's easy to play (maybe at low level) but once you start playing competent players you really have to make great reads and mix ups. Even gooteks said he was hard to be good with. Agree with OP his style really added something new to the game which I love.
Imagine leaving Violent Ken off the list but putting Evil Ryu hella high, even though Violent Ken was actually in canon BEFORE evil Ryu because of the anime.
Rufus the first offical fat street fighter character? So you're saying E.Honda isn't fat as a sumo wrestler? Who are all known for being overweight. Yes they gave him muscles in his sprite days but lets be real. E.Honda is fat. OFFICIALLY
Sagat will forever be my #1 video game character of all time! In any video game that has a create a character mode, I will always slap on an eyepatch on them as a tribute to him. I love the Muay Thai fighting style, so he was an instant favorite once he became playable in the Street Fighter series.
He is my favourite too. Such a bad ass and once you learn how to really execute his moves and timing them, your opponent does not stand a chance. Tiger uppercut!!!
Putting the worst, most boring, unispired character at 22 is either a joke or active insanity. Especially considering all the snubbed characters putting a diet Akuma that high is insult to injury.
Pretty good list, but Sean & Necro were waaaaaaaay too low. That was the only glaring issue, but SF has some really great characters, so what can you do? Seems like SF3 characters placed higher if they appeared in other games. Please explain. Zeku could've placed higher, too. After all, you did use his theme song for this video.
Idk, i like Bison a lot. But IMO, he is the Freeza of Street Fighter, like "come on... you are cool and all, but... again?! Seriously?! Just die already..."
Pretty solid list, but I'd rank Cammy above Sagat at least. Maybe Juri up a couple of spots given how much buzz she generates. Not many characters can claim that.
I appreciate your effort in putting this list together, but you ranked Dudley way, WAY too low. He's a Top 10 character for sure. Putting him so low kills this list's credibility. Also, putting Seth higher than Gil is just nuts.
Decent list overall. I wholeheartedly agree with what was said about Ryu. Capcom keeps trying to replace him as the main character, but it's simply not Street Fighter without the endless challenger.
@@txgoldrush How can that be, when it tends to be Ryu who defeats the main villains? Bison, Seth, Akuma.. What noteworthy feat has Chun Li achieved in the series apart from becoming a fanservice icon?
@@txgoldrush Interpreting it as "forced" doesn't change the fact that they're his in-universe achievements. Being that both Ryu and Chun Li tend to represent the franchise, calling Ryu simply a mascot means Chun Li is less than. Her popularity is primarily due to being an attractive female; not for accomplishing anything of worth within the story.
I main Ryu for years, but I also love Ed when he was introduced in SFV I made him my second, so I'm glad to hear that Ed is coming back to Street Fighter 6
OMG. Are you serious? Strong players are not the ones who appear most often in the game. In one comic, Akuma defeated Ryu and Ken so easily that they admitted they didn't stand a chance..😅 Top 3 should be like this. 3 - Ryu 2 - Oro 1 - Akuma
Dude when I learned to play him im 3 he was so much fun to use. How combos,supers and moves make him one of the most fun characters to play with in any fighting game I have ever played.
Good top rank but you missed almost all the Characters from the Street Fighter EX versions, that I'm played EX1 and EX2 in arcade machine, really love playing as Kairi and Cracker Jack
Sodom, Hakan, Luke, Abel, Decapre, Remy, and Sean being lower than Rufus is actually disgusting… wow

6:45, 17:06, 17:25, 20:20, 20:51, 21:28, 22:52 and 23:11 were perfectly timed transitions.
And 23:33
And 19:13
Sagat will forever be my #1 video game character of all time! In any video game that has a create a character mode, I will always slap on an eyepatch on them as a tribute to him. I love the Muay Thai fighting style, so he was an instant favorite once he became playable in the Street Fighter series.
He is my favourite too. Such a bad ass and once you learn how to really execute his moves and timing them, your opponent does not stand a chance. Tiger uppercut!!!
Putting the worst, most boring, unispired character at 22 is either a joke or active insanity. Especially considering all the snubbed characters putting a diet Akuma that high is insult to injury.
This
I'm from mexico and i really enjoy el fuerte, it's too epic, i don't find hin offensive and i actually enjoy his gameplay
Americans always shitting on El Fuerte, while we love him in Mexico. 😂
Sean at 62 is heartbreaking
Pretty good list, but Sean & Necro were waaaaaaaay too low. That was the only glaring issue, but SF has some really great characters, so what can you do?
Seems like SF3 characters placed higher if they appeared in other games. Please explain.
Zeku could've placed higher, too. After all, you did use his theme song for this video.
Putting Necro that low should be illegal
Necro is not that special bro
Should’ve known this tier list would be horrible, it’s what EventHubs is known for
Lmao stopped watching as soon as I saw my boy El fuerte in dead last
Bro dissed El Fuerte
Automatic dislike
As a Mexican, I think Rufus is 10x more offensive than El Fuerte! Lol
How the hell is El Fuerte #72?????
He's at least better than Rufus, come on...
twelve at 66 is a crime.
He should be lower. Completely garbage character.
He should be 12
I think Fei Long was a lil high lol
A little?
Wait why is Sean so low?!
Solid list. I see why you slotted characters the way you did. I personally like Akira and Nash, so I'd put them higher, but good job.
T. Hawk ABOVE Blanka??? Wow...
Complete nonsense
Imaging thinking T.Hawk is charismatic
Dang no one likes El Fuerte? I’m newer to Street Fighter and I picked up 4 not too long ago and the luchadore just resonated with me
What a coincidence to have the most freemasonic character “G” appear at number 33 lol
;)
11:47 little top heavy eh? man's got jokes =]
If you didn't already say it, I was about to!
Why July & juni were not included?
They were playable characters in alpha 3.
Idk, i like Bison a lot. But IMO, he is the Freeza of Street Fighter, like "come on... you are cool and all, but... again?! Seriously?! Just die already..."
I think you were a bit too hard on Blanka, he's a really fun fighter and he's beloved by the community (and he's also my favorite character)
Gotta love how just over half way through the video positivity starts kicking in, GG!
Pretty solid list, but I'd rank Cammy above Sagat at least. Maybe Juri up a couple of spots given how much buzz she generates. Not many characters can claim that.
I appreciate your effort in putting this list together, but you ranked Dudley way, WAY too low. He's a Top 10 character for sure. Putting him so low kills this list's credibility. Also, putting Seth higher than Gil is just nuts.
We need more of Gouken
Blanka at 36? No! I am sure I am not the first person to point this out. Blanka is top 10 or at least top 15. This list is not in perfect order.
Decent list overall. I wholeheartedly agree with what was said about Ryu. Capcom keeps trying to replace him as the main character, but it's simply not Street Fighter without the endless challenger.
He doesn't fit as the main hero like Chun Li does.
@@txgoldrush How can that be, when it tends to be Ryu who defeats the main villains? Bison, Seth, Akuma.. What noteworthy feat has Chun Li achieved in the series apart from becoming a fanservice icon?
@@Shade84 Because it is forced, especially Bison. Second, being an icon that transcends the series is better than being just the mascot.
@@txgoldrush Interpreting it as "forced" doesn't change the fact that they're his in-universe achievements.
Being that both Ryu and Chun Li tend to represent the franchise, calling Ryu simply a mascot means Chun Li is less than. Her popularity is primarily due to being an attractive female; not for accomplishing anything of worth within the story.
@@Shade84 No, along with Guile, she is the story's big good.
Finally somebody who understands The Power Of Vega
correction: Sean made his first appearance in New Gen, not 2nd Impact.
2nd Impact is when Sean shined. 3rd Strike turned him into a complete joke,
My favourite characters:
Dhalsim, Blanka, E. Honda , Dee Jay, Dudley, Ken and Mike Haggar
I main Ryu for years, but I also love Ed when he was introduced in SFV I made him my second, so I'm glad to hear that Ed is coming back to Street Fighter 6
1:48 Today we are all dogs in pain.
I'm surprised, I thought Elena would've been like the top 30s or 20s lol
USf4 got Elena A LOT of hate. Way too favorable frame data couple with some of the most frustrating timer scans with her healing Ultra,
3:43 i dont care how good he is at the game i think hes a really cool design.
As a "Latino" I love el fuerte
Very pleased of the high rankings of Dudley, Ibuki, Vega, Akuma and Cody.
Honda at 14 I'm going to pass out this has to be a joke
I waited too much for this moment. After all, New fighters will appear. Thanks for the ranking.
Street Fighter has over 100 characters the most of any fighting game.
I totally agree with you. This video forgot to add EX street fighter characters in this list. But somebody disagree with my opinion....
@@abdulghafar7195 they aren’t even playable characters wdym
@@abdulghafar7195 they are a diffent IP now and another company has their rights
@@abdulghafar7195 That because Capcom doesn't own the right of such characters
How many characters are in the King of fighters series. Would've thought it'll be more than street fighter.
Really love your description of Cammy
"Number 72 El Fuerte" almost made me click off the video
OMG. Are you serious? Strong players are not the ones who appear most often in the game. In one comic, Akuma defeated Ryu and Ken so easily that they admitted they didn't stand a chance..😅 Top 3 should be like this.
3 - Ryu
2 - Oro
1 - Akuma
Great to see Dudley in the top 25. By far my fave character and hope to see him again in SF6.
Dude when I learned to play him im 3 he was so much fun to use. How combos,supers and moves make him one of the most fun characters to play with in any fighting game I have ever played.
Blanka deserves a better ranking! He is a legend!
He mashed way too many crybaby scrubs. They're still salty,
Juri is my favourite! 💜 Chun-Li, Cammy, M. Bison and Akuma also come close for me too.
Cammy's comment was hilarious
I LOVE NECRO!!!
Would be great to see this list for King of Fighters.
I wonder what could be done with Gill in the future.
Good top rank but you missed almost all the Characters from the Street Fighter EX versions, that I'm played EX1 and EX2 in arcade machine, really love playing as Kairi and Cracker Jack
I was also looking for to ex3 with doctrine dark and skullomania
Kairi, Allen, Pullum, Garuda and Doctrine Dark are awesome characters.
@@renatomorales1973 Garuda was my favorite 👏🏽👏🏽
