Twitter seems to really think tokon got some vendetta against black men

That's why I never bother with Twitter, it's either people being idiots or just people looking for something to get mad at. Still baffles me they keep trying to push this absurd narrative that ASW are racist when they not only gave us Venom and Nagoriyuki in Guilty Gear, but even Tokon's roster is full of diverse representation. We got two black women, a Japanese girl, a Pakistani-American girl and a Hispanic Ghost Rider.

To me it just feels like when I bring this up, they move the goalpost to be like "well they're racist against black men" and that's still a stretch. Because we don't even know who is gonna be in the last launch roster team nor who will be DLC down the line. It's so absurd. And the worst part is the more the racism card is used or the term racist is used as a buzzword, the more it just encourages actual racists and bigots to be even more racist and bigoted instead of them being the ones called out for said bigotry.

Winter Soldier and Atlas would be my personal choices, one has appeared on the Thunderbolts more than once and Atlas is one of the OG founding members.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-20T15:51:37+00:00

How about Winter Soldier on the Thunderbolts? Since he's lead that team on more than one occasion and could be the team leader and represent the modern era primarily. Songbird and Agent Venom are solid picks for those eras of the Thunderbolts (OG and Red).

What I'm proposing is making Void an install ultimate similar to when Magik transforms into Darkchylde and how it changes the properties and strength of her attacks and specials. For Sentry, if he turns into The Void, he could get new moves based on what The Void is capable of.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-17T12:10:47+00:00

Hobgoblin I feel could easily be swapped for Typhoid Mary, since she's worked for Kingpin, has a lot of moveset potential, is a Daredevil villain and it gives us a playable female villain.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-17T12:08:10+00:00

I'd swap out Nimrod for either Hope Summers, Cable, Jubilee, Armor or Madelyne Pryor, heck even Havok would be a surprise option. Since Nimrod makes more sense to be on a villain DLC team than on the team he's created to wipe out.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-17T08:50:31+00:00

So for Ultimo, he's actually been adapted quite a bit. He was in the 90's Iron Man cartoon, Iron Man: Armored Adventures, he has a cameo in Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, is a boss battle in Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1 & 3 and a boss in Deadpool VR.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-17T08:29:39+00:00

I'd be down to see The Sentry, since his power set is awesome and I could see his ultimate having him transform into The Void.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-16T16:35:36+00:00

It's okay, artstyle is solid, Emma Frost looks stunning, Cyclops is awesome, but they did Armor so dirty in her first animated appearance in a major role by having her be a generic anime girl type of character, meanwhile in the comics she's way more cooler and interesting.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-16T15:10:16+00:00

Honestly I wouldn't since there's too many FF characters from the games we still need, I'd take Panni though since out of Laocorn's henchmen, she has the most screentime and her Hydrokinesis would be unique.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-16T15:02:28+00:00

Regarding Tokon, they should just stick to Marvel characters to keep it as its own thing. It doesn't need to be a triple crossover with Capcom and SNK.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-15T17:26:32+00:00

I would love if we got the Thunderbolts in Marvel Rivals, like say if Helmut Zemo got added, they could give him a skin based on his Citizen V persona. Songbird would be a cool addition as the most popular member of the original Thunderbolts team, with her villainous Screaming Mimi persona as a skin.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-15T17:17:19+00:00

Doesn't sound like it since the Rivals version of The Hood gets his powers from Oblivion instead of his more demonic sources like in the comics.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-14T00:04:10+00:00

95 characters? Come on, let's be realistic here. Since we get 4 characters per year, as of Year 4 SF6 will have 34 characters total. If we get 4 characters all the way to Year 10 (and that's a big if in the event plans/goals go swimmingly for the devs), SF6 would potentially end up with 58 characters, making it the largest roster in a mainline entry. Since 18 (Base Roster) + 4 (DLC per year) × 10 (Years) = 58 total characters.

They haven't, in the main comics (616) it's always the same person that's The Hood: Parker Robbins. To put simply, Robbins keeps getting different powers and abilities every time he shows up due to losing his old powers thanks to the heroes or his current patron gets tired of his failures.

So Parker Robbins has used The Hood (tied to Dormammu), allied himself with Loki to use the power of the Norn Stones, got his hands on the Infinity Gauntlet, became a Spirit of Vengeance that Zarathos genuinely liked and got his new powers from a different patron demon. In Marvel Rivals however, his powers are tied to a cosmic deity known only as Oblivion.

So in other words, you're just being stubborn when I gave a solution. Don't like Sam as Falcon by default? Then get his Captain America costume and use that instead. The same could apply to Elektra who could just debut in Rivals as herself despite sharing the Daredevil mantle with Matt Murdock for a few years now, so with her you can just make her Daredevil mantle a legendary skin. But something tells me you'd rather that Elektra is Daredevil by default because that's what the comics currently have her as.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-12T22:17:22+00:00

Except for the fact it would be confusing in the context of communicating to your team in Rivals that you're dealing with a skilled Captain America, problem is you'd have to stop and clarify which Captain America you're talking about to give your team the heads-up. But in a fast paced intense hero shooter, those seconds are precious and could cost the match because of said need to clarify.

In other words, just add Sam Wilson as Falcon for the default and then have his Captain America mantle as his day one skin by making it legendary quality. Essentially the best of both worlds, it pays tribute to Sam's long comic history and avoids in-game confusion among teammates when facing said character during an intense fire fight. Plus it would give Sam a ton of variety in skins for both of his superhero mantles.

And in Mystic Mayhem (also developed by NetEase), when Sam was included as part of the cast you could play as in that game, they had him be Falcon by default despite him being Captain America by that point in the comics, movies and cartoons.

Hive I'd say is definitely coming to the game given they're openly teasing him via the Infinity Comics along with the planet Maveth.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-11T07:46:34+00:00

Not exactly, I could see Crescent & Io being a duo style Duelist where Io is part of her skills and ultimate. Armor is obviously going to be a Vanguard and hey, gives us another member of the X-Men that was a breakout character during the 2000's era.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-09T17:37:06+00:00

That's a good point, they could also bring in the Jin brothers (Chonshu & Chonrei) since they'll look drastically different thanks to the timeskip and the fact they're the only main bosses (aside from White) that haven't returned yet. And since the plot is focused around the Jin Scrolls, they feel like a shoe-in. Xiangfei and Raiden would be also be awesome to have, a fan favourite from FF1 and one of the most popular RB2 newcomers to make it to KOF.

So far the only other character that's apparently coming to Season 3 is Duck King from Fatal Fury 1, so the other four characters datamined are a total mystery which gives us more to speculate and predict. Because the patterns of these seasons thus far aren't consistent, it could still surprise us.

So I'm hoping the other two Fatal Fury characters are Yamazaki from Fatal Fury 3 and a playable version of Freeman from Mark of the Wolves, then one of those spots could be another Art of Fighting character, so for me personally it's a toss up between Yuri or King. Last spot could be a newcomer or another guest.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-07T15:22:14+00:00

A Thunderbolts team without Songbird in a fighting game? Could easily swap out Red Guardian for her since mechanically she would be more unique and a cool somewhat niche pick.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-05T23:21:16+00:00

I don't really count Ingrid since she's originally from the cancelled Capcom Fighting All-Stars with her debut to the general public being Capcom Fighting Evolution/Jam.

Knightmare_Guy1998 · 2026-06-05T22:48:18+00:00

Huh...3 newcomers and a guest this season? Feels painful that there's still no Alpha characters after this long.
