That ain't the case. The real truth is Capcom been biting SNK since the 90s. There could be a whole thread on everything Capcom has taken from SNK.

Using the characters you named as an example, Juri is based on May Lee from KOF

SF5 is riddled with examples. Nash having Genocide Cutter, Gief super being modeled after Shermie's, Guile and Lucia having K' fireball, it goes on and on


Also, and this happens in all media, ideas form at similar times around similar trends. Isla for example is just an inspiration from current fashion in Asian countries. Kimberly likely had the same design DNA

Forget about characters, we can even talk game mechanics :sas1: blowback attacks in KOF and alpha counters look maaad familiar, wonder who did it first :sas2:

I mean, tens of former SNK employees in the early 2000s went to work for Capcom. SNK went belly up at the time before Playmore bought them. There's tons of overlap between the two companies and even more if you add in Dimps. But its almost impossible two companies can make the two most known 2D fighters and someone doesn't go..."Damn, that's a good idea."

There were talks back then that Capcom would buy SNK, especially after CvS came out.

they bite each other. the 4 emperors each have an analog in fatal fury special. yuri constantly picking up moves from various street fighters

like mentioned, they are the marvel/dc of the fighting game world. none of it is taken seriously

They bite each other but the bite tally favors Capcom by a mile :russ:

Capcom has multiple entire lifted SNK designs

So if you got 8th in multi versus you made about as much as the MB and Skulllgirls champion. Those indie games aren’t worth the investment if you are a pro.

Drop some knowledge then
Here's a few off top. No pics because fukk all that work :russ:

C. Viper is one of the most popular examples. Her design is blatantly Vanessa. Viper is even a single mother like Vanessa

El Fuerte is a copy and paste of Ramon. The SAME moveset. (Lucha wrestler with identical run cancel moves )

Nash in SF5 has Rugal's Genocide Cutter

Zangief's SF5 super(3 count suplex) is based on Shermie's

Dudley is loosely based on Heavy D. They're night and day aesthetics wise but Heavy D has a corkscrew punch and a counter attack like Dudley's

I don't know the name of G's moves but that jumping air fireball he has? That exact move is from KOF 98 Omega Rugal

Guile and Lucia have variations of K' fireball

Blanka's Vskill 1 is a short hop

Necalli's ground pound Vskill is based on Goro Daimon's ground pound

Rashid's Vskill 1 is a more active, traveling version of Goenitz's tornado

R Mika's chargeable dropkick(HK) is based on Raidens charge dropkick from KOF 13.

Mika, Laura, and Alex(during his vtriggers) are foundationally KOF style grapplers

This is mostly just SF5. There are more, older examples but I'm drawing a blank

You cant be serious with that. Probably costs more for a flight, room, and food than you make on winning some of them pots.

The winners of Multiversus team made 10k but top 32 got paid out from a 100k pot

People that complain about rollback are some of the woat. Anybody remember sf4 players blaming roll back for losing tourneys

Tekken really needs to fix their online infrastructure. They've had the worst online experiences for 5 games now. No replay feature for other worldwide players, can't determine visually if you're going to get a rematch via the rematch button. Replays get erased anytime there's an update, etc.
