    Ryu. The people's champ. COME ON!

    Bison would have you living in some oppressive right wing dictatorship if he had his way.

    Ryu has no inner life.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,135 ✭✭✭mistersifter


    Ryu has no inner life.

    Bison is a poor mans Kim Jong Un! :D


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 600 ✭✭✭Lil Sally Anne Jnr.


    Dude is a blank canvas. A pointless, souless deadened individual.

    I hope all my M Bison brethren will vote against Ryu and his idiotic pallette change brother Ken in ALL future fights.

    Bison is number two. Ryu is street fighter. It's like voting for luigi over mario. Also, if you had two good players head to head, one with ryu and one with bison, the player with ryu would win 9 times out of 10. He's by far the strongest character and best all rounder.

    No Matter. My boy Sagat will ate him without salt.

    TIGER UPPERCUT !!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 600 ✭✭✭Lil Sally Anne Jnr.


    Pretty much Sagat all the way now folks this isn't a game, it's art and chaos and madness and immorality against faceless, mass-appeal, pijamas wearing "goodies".


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,135 ✭✭✭mistersifter


    We could do with more like Ryu in today's world - a killer of evil tyrants.

    Reckon he could easily sort out Boris, Trump and the boys.

    Bet women love him too.

    Legend.

    Bison can take Ken and Ryu, only friendship or some other nonsense can beat him.

    M Bison

    Because he's Irish (in the 'Legend of Chun Li' - dunno wat they were smoking when they decided that)

    Well that was one hell of a battle. Good triumphs over Evil, but just barely. We have one last semi-final spot up for grabs. Who takes it, you decide. FIGHT!

    E Honda, prefer his moves and sound effects.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,135 ✭✭✭mistersifter


    Gonna go with Blanka here cos I like Brazilians.

    This is peak analysis. Proud of both of you.

    Okay, Honda allows a slower more defensive method of combat where you can hang back and slowly win through attrition which is an easier tactic to master compared to the frenetic way you have to fight with Blanka


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,135 ✭✭✭mistersifter


    OKAAAAAAY

    I think Blanka is a bit like the incredible Hulk (my favourite superhero) because he is a normal fella but got mutated (by an electrical storm). So I pity him cos he's probably misunderstood but I also like his savagery cos its cool


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,247 ✭✭✭✭DrPhilG


    Blanka. Along with Ryu, my favourite character to use. No worse feeling when facing Blanka than him getting the oul head bite started. Bate the crap out of the controller trying to shake him loose.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 508 ✭✭✭d8491prj5boyvg


    Nice match, both similar characters. Both have the "don't come near me" button bashing move. Blanka far and away superior, though. Fast and agile. Could jump off the corner of the screen like vega and chun li if i remember correctly? Basically could do everything Honda could but with pace.

    Blanka, easily.

    Blanka - I dont like fat or asian people


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,323 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    Blanka- Never chose either of them myself but he was a frustrating **** to play against.


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    Another vote for Blanka here. Half man, half beast and lovely cargo shorts. The electricity attack was among the coolest things in the 90's, right up there with Chicago Bulls memorabilia.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,558 ✭✭✭✭Fourier


    I'm after reading an analysis of their fighting styles and it's a fairly universal consensus that Blanka is just better. I mentioned earlier that E. Honda can hang back and win through attrition but there is a way of doing this with Blanka that is just a bit harder to pull off but will defeat E. Honda. The only benefit of E. Honda is that he is a bit better against very fast characters like Chun Li.

    So I'll have to change to Blanka.


  • Registered Users Posts: 160 ✭✭Urquell


    Honda for me due to the sheer awesomeness of the hundred hand slap.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 6,485 Mod ✭✭✭✭silvervixen84


    Love this thread!

    Blanka for me - using Electric Thunder in a fight was always so exciting.


  • Registered Users Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    With a "shocking" change of heart from Fourier taken into account, we have Blanka leading E.Honda by a score of 8-1 so far. I don't see anything but a Sayonara in the future of the sumo champion.

    E. Honda for me! :cool:

    Raised by electric eels. It's gotta be Blanka
    Bison is number two. Ryu is street fighter. It's like voting for luigi over mario.
    It's more like voting for Waluigi over Mario. And I think everyone agrees, Waluigi is cooler than Mario.
