The fact that you can not only see the definition and separation of the individual muscle groups but the fact that they bulge and stretch in the most realistic way when contracting and relaxing is just mind blowing
Marisa's fighting style appears to be based on Pankration (very ancient style, similar to what Gill and Urien use - you can see it in that boot special she has and the counter) She looks sick though I'm not 100% sold on how her hair looks, she looks like she means business - VERY satisfying hits like Alex's big crush counters and grabs. Hoping we get her in a beta later before final release.
well, urien and gill both fight "actual" (by in-universe standards) pankration but marisa seem to be more based on real world historical depiction of pankration with some extra, new flavour on top to really sell the greco-roman ideal beauty of "sheer, unfettered strength"
Which is cool, cause the only other fighting game that has a Pankration fighter I can think of off the top of my head is Jeffery McWild from Virtua Fighter.
Isn't Pankration a Greek fighting style where it involves, grappling, boxing, kicks, in short mma while having a specific rule of not gouging the eyes or punching the groin?
@@gamechanger8908 Not quite: Pankration was specifically the unarmed combat training of the soldiers and it combined greek wrestling with greek boxing. It didn't favor kicks much and it was optimized for war. It is less like MMA and more like modern military CQC disciplines like Fairbarn, Systema and Krav Maga. But it's true there was an olympic variation with a few rules, but it's more or less what most modern olympic martial arts are to their more traditional disciplines, a shadow of it's former glory that many argue whether it's at all the same combat style
The pose of that grapplein 2:36, is actually a reference to a scupture that is called "Wrestlers", actually if you google image Pankration, which is Marisa Fighting style, and also Gil and Urien kinda (they all even have the same kick (the crush counter kick)), you will find one of those scuptures as the very first result. This statue was reproduzed a few times arround and is very famous, it represents the very first martial ark, the Pankration. Gill just made his own version of the statue with street characters
I honestly feel like Manon was the least interesting character for me, I like her aesthetically and I love me some long legged, big booty waifus but I'm not a fan of how she plays. Marisa and JP pretty much stole the show for me
Drive Impact has armor through the entire animation, even when the attack is about to hit. So yeah, that foward punch absolutely obliterated the Drive Impact armor
I think the problem with it is the color. Goofy hair shapes have been a street fighter staple forever, but that explosive bright pink/red on a character with otherwise kind of muted black and gold draws the eyes up to how absurd that hair is, rather than letting you look past it and see the character. Maybe they'll give us a skin where she's wearing the helmet.
I play Luke in SFV and Ken in 3S, so initially it was between them two. Leaning towards Ken. Marissa definitely interests me though. When the character art leaked and the description said she was an pankration/MMA fighter, my hope was that she wouldn’t just be a grappler, that she would have a fireball like Luke.
I too was looking forward to marisa and/or manon, I wanted an aggressive grapple, but after the gameplay I don't think either will suit my playstyle. Marisa is more of a brute. kinda like abigail, and manon a tricky tech char like karin. Dee jay looks betterfor me of the 4 chars shown, hoping that they gave him the SVF vega treatment and got rid of his charges, which he should never have to have.
@@twistedrivera As you probably know he was the weakest char, like literally lowest tier in SF4. I have heard that apparently his charge horizontal kick move (cannot remember name) was supposed to break guard like focus attack but they took it away from him before launch as it was too OP, which actually gutted his playstyle and was too late for them to change him and balance him, hence why he was so low tier. Might be BS or a rumour but it would make sense why he was so crap. Still I don't think deejay should be a charge char at all but if they keep his charge, it should be supplemented with more forward aggressive moves, which it looks like he has. Plus he can feint his projectile and non EX projectile is a double fireball/boom, so even if he is a charge char, he will most likely be stronger and more useful.
@@twistedrivera Why not? All the characters already have a parry and there has already been a similar move with Luke in SFV. Where both at the same time
@@kittymortalkombat It doesn’t make a lot of sense to make a throw counter mechanic since it won’t be all too usable in matches. If it works like Luke V-skill 2 in SFV, then I can see it working that way but I highly doubt they would make a throw specific counter that will rarely be seen
That low tier character attraction or draw that you speak of I have that problem too. Majority of characters I like or get good with usually end up being low to mid tier at best. It's aggravating sometimes.

When you started talking about having a low tier curse. I felt that.
Same bruv
The fact that you can not only see the definition and separation of the individual muscle groups but the fact that they bulge and stretch in the most realistic way when contracting and relaxing is just mind blowing
I feel like SF6 will be the one to definitely set the new standard for fighting games
I love that Luke and Marisa can punch so hard that projectiles come out
Lol, shouldn't be too surprising, Cody can cause Whirlwinds through similar means.
@@fogblades6811 yep
@@fogblades6811 he's probably busy running metro city while all of this is going on...
Luke throws Sand.

I am SO pumped for our giant muscle mommy
Seeing how she leaves you crumpled in a heap after that grab... goddamn I wish that were me
You wish you were dead?
You know the joys of being dominated
I'm already in love with the character. She just looks so forceful

It’s her Level 1. All supers break armour, plus it has the camera angle change the same Luke’s level 1.
Marisa is the Queen. She looks great. Her hair is kinda jank but most of Street fighter chars have crazy hair style
I think the problem with it is the color. Goofy hair shapes have been a street fighter staple forever, but that explosive bright pink/red on a character with otherwise kind of muted black and gold draws the eyes up to how absurd that hair is, rather than letting you look past it and see the character.

Afraid of muscle girl design.
Cowardice.
great vid gg
Marisa is gonna have a school girl costume dlc. Like from the anime project A-Ko
She's 6'8, awesome
Definitely attracted in that way or it's just me
Not just you, brudda 😏
I wanna try out Manon. I didn't even realize she was a grappler until I read the page.
I think she will be kinda like Omega Zangief, big slow ass tank. I'll be playing Dee Jay while listening Sean Paul so I'm good.
I play Luke in SFV and Ken in 3S, so initially it was between them two. Leaning towards Ken. Marissa definitely interests me though. When the character art leaked and the description said she was an pankration/MMA fighter, my hope was that she wouldn’t just be a grappler, that she would have a fireball like Luke.
In Italy we call that style "capelli a caschetto" (trsl. "helmet hair"), but she took it on a pretty literal level.
I forgive her for the insane hair... I mean, come on. Deep down every fighting game character wishes they could be Magneto.
The only character I am excited for atm.. 😩
Alex will be season 2 minimum.
Copium 😂
I absolutely love her. I can’t wait to play her.
THIS IS SPARTAAAAA!!!
MY GUY! -> MY GIRL!
4:15 my guess is It’s her Level 1. All supers break armour, plus it has the camera angle change the same Luke’s level 1.
Hilarious that people keep saying Spartan when she's from Italy
Honestly love the fighting style and the design apart from the hair. the hair honestly looks so weird
Well there are also Roman Italian's
Her info says she's obsessed with ancient Greeks tho
She’s an Italian obsessed with Spartans.
She could be mixed too
Well you can been Italian and love ancient Greece.
She finally got the low tier curse
Nice to see Killer Sally getting a gig after Prison
Sparta is in Greece btw :)
As a balrog main I approve
Foot fetishists are eating well in street fighter 6 apparently
She is so cool god damn I might give her a try when game comes out BUT WHO SHOULD I MAIN??? THEY ALL ARE COOL
They 100% made all the characters look SUPER fun this time around.
I’m so happy that Marisa is a an armor/bruiser character rather than a grappler!
She would give Zangrief a run for his money in terms of muscles...
She making Urien act up
Making his heaven and earth tremble ayo
Lion uppercut
Everyone: Man she looks strong she is brutal.
Me: Is that Marisa...that's a huge bish.
I too was looking forward to marisa and/or manon, I wanted an aggressive grapple, but after the gameplay I don't think either will suit my playstyle.
Marisa is more of a brute. kinda like abigail, and manon a tricky tech char like karin.
Dee jay looks betterfor me of the 4 chars shown, hoping that they gave him the SVF vega treatment and got rid of his charges, which he should never have to have.
Deejay definitely seems really fun to play this time around. Interest me much more than his SF4 iteration
@@twistedrivera As you probably know he was the weakest char, like literally lowest tier in SF4.

H... Heavy punch ? 🥵
Her hair looking like a spartan/magneto helmet is kinda throwing me off.
I think she been trained by bullrog
Marrisa is my main
Marisa's move set looks a bit like Luke's but much more brutal.
Is that her hair or she wears headgear?
She's a red-head with helmet hair.👍
@@spiralgodking9877 OK i just realized it that way because of helmet hair. Make perfect sense.
In online shes my first choice tryhards watch out 😈👊
2:26 Are you sure it's a jab and not a throw?
Looks like a jab. It would be weird if they made it a throw counter instead of a hit counter.

Marissa needs a dude check.
Goddamn capcom couldn't this be a dude💔
We have a lot of beefy men in Street Fighter, the ladies deserve a turn to have a big brickhouse character
@@ObeyDaFist not enough Lady Powerhouses in fighting games in general. So im glad shes one of them.
Marisa is Transgender??? ,😱😱😱😱
Marisa is a dommy mommy

It's like Makoto and Juggernaut had a kid.
