It would kinda make sense if the two new characters are rivals or something. But ehhh its no biggie. Ryu,Ken is just like a nostalgia factor.

Urien is a god Bison is a mere imitation. Why look for the perfect body when you already have it.
Zangief is all "do you even lift, bro" to Urien.
If he comes back with the same outfit we can get Underwear Boys

I also just saw the range of his fierce and roundhouse. Stick a button out in footsie range, donate a free crush counter combo.

Will Ono cosplay Urien?, that is the key question
people will hate him because he looks stupid and is white
give me a brown South Asian dude plz
I really hope we get a North African or Egyptian newcomer down the line, that and an Oceanic one, since that we're already getting characters from a variety of continents/subcontinents like North America, South America, the Middle-East and South or South East Asia.
I know some people don't like the idea of diversity for the sake of it, but I'm super on board with it. SF4 didn't diversify enough.
Apparently she was designed by Ono as well.

Me too ... I think SF4 did a much better job than Alpha and 3 in that regard though. France,Mexico,Korea,Turkey.
Its just that the characters themselves were very forgettable.

... I don't think either one of those guys was even aware of Capcom Fighting All-Stars existence.
Could you translate this please

1 new 2 returning, 16 total characters
It's probably a mistake someone made.
So did Zen get the boot? Either that or it was a mistranslation & they meant 2 new (counting Laura as unrevealed) & 1 returning.

Dafook? Did they flip it ? Shouldn't it be 2 new and 1 returning?
If they arent acknowledging the Laura leak , then is Zen not on the initial roster?
ShogunDarius

maybe Zen is an unplayable boss?
That'd certainly make things interesting. How many new guys were there in vanilla SF4?

If you count Gouken and Seth as bosses, 6

It's a translation error. Capcom already said we'd have 4 newcomers, not 3. Zen is not going to be an unplayable boss.
That honestly would surprise me since, like I told bifu before he got banned, I don't think they'd push a newcomer to the DLC wayside.
Exactly. I'm going with mistranslation.
Actually more accurately translates to "there will be 16 characters, plus 1 new, 2 returning."
Which is by itself a conflicting statement. Either there are 16 or 19, and Capcom initially told us it was 16, so let's go with that.
That depends on if Laura counts as unrevealed.
Then what I was thinking doesn't matter then. Still think it's a mistranslation

Yo who here is actually looking forward to Dhalsim? If you ask me i still think he is not on the initial roster. NYCC is going to be Alex or the real American Champ Guile. I hope it's Guile so far the roster has been very dull and lacking variety. You either playing rushdown or grab character. 1 true charge character and 0 zoners so far....They desperately need guile in here.
I'm going with Guile for NYCC and Zen for the Indian event in November.
Dhalsim would put me in an early grave.

"1 true charge character"
There are currently 3 charge characters. There's no such thing as a "fake" charge character.

I'm pretty sure the default right now is Juri and Hakan or Ryu and Oni
Yea you were 99 percent sure urien and alex were in! I'm not gonna ask you who you think is in.

Zen as a boss I can see, Urien as a boss I can see, but Alex as a boss? I dunno about that
Find this highly unlikely. Mistranslation.
I don't think they're counting Laura as revealed (if you want to go for that interpretation), otherwise we'd have one character too many.
Actually, if the translation that I pulled up is correct, the new unplayable boss wouldn't be Zen.
Now THAT would be hype.
I think he would have work some kinda of weird muscle shirt . Like he did with Hugo.
Yeah, unless Ono was the director on Capcom Fighting All-Stars then the whole Ono creating Ingrid doesn't mean anything.
She was the sole original character (technically) in Capcom Fighting Evolution, however.
Or Brazil -> Laura
NYCC -> Nobody
India Games Expo -> Dhalsim
Somewhere else -> Zen
I'm not exactly buying Zen as Indian quite yet.
Great minds think alike. This is exactly how I see it going.

Bro you have no idea how glad i am to be proven wrong. This gives me hope that better characters like Guile will make it in over alex. But It's most likely going be alex I still think. This game needs more grapplers.
North Africa, Brazil, India
Rashid, Laura, Zen
Believe in Ken Bogard.
No, it's that Bogard's info has been pointing to a new Indian newbie, which would make Guile the obvious NYCC reveal now that Alex doesn't make sense alongside Gief.
I see Eisbahn as a new character for DLC added on later, like Hakan, Juri ect.
Lmao for real though
