Also, since only two people posted advocating for it, let's have a brief lull in action

Well, nice to see Lucas die before the true story began.

Rest in pieces, SYM-04 sucked him dry in 3 seconds flat. He could of ended up with some broken bones, bruises, gashes, stab wounds, frostbite, getting the shit kicked out of him by a midget, or thrown out of the arena... but fate was cruel.

Oh god, yes. I need this in my life right now. I'm glad (or hope) this roleplay is still looking for players. I have plenty of experience and a lot of eagerness. I want to start working on my character now, but I saw you guys are looking for certain fighter styles. Can someone explain to me what Shotoclone/Grappler/Zoner fighting styles entail exactly?

They're fighting game terms.

A shotoclone is an allrounder, with not too many overpowered super-moves that require tricky button presses. They're usually the first character you can pick in fighting games. The Ur example is Ryu from street fighter. They usually center around three moves, a fireball they can spam from across the stage, a big, powerful, but slow to wind up rush or kick that leaves them open if they miss, and a big, showy uppercut to swat at the opponents who'll jump over their fireball. In Fighting games, there's usually a time limit, so sitting at one end of the stage and blocking the fireballs isn't really a good strategy. So it always comes down to who's going to move first, and if they can get past the uppercut and strike them while they're doing the uppercut or getting around it. The term comes from Shotokan Karate, which is what Ryu and Ken were meant to be performing in street fighter.

A grappler character is a big, stronk, heavy guy who's strongest attacks revolve around grabbing the other character and throwing him. In fighting games, a throw will always beat a shield, but will be beaten in turn by just punching them before they can punch you. They're the scissors in the strategy game of fighting games, and they'll usually have not a lot of projectile weapons to encourage that style of play of just grabbing a guy and suplexing his ass. Think Zangeif or Alex.

A zoner is a character who's completely opposite to the Grappler. Their entire strategy revolves around playing keep-away with their opponent, using projectiles with wierd arcs and laying traps down to make up for the fact that their shield is weak and their throws can't get the opponent away far enough. Think Dhalsim or Ingrid.

Fighting games are really worth getting into, by the way.

You you so much for the explanation! I think I might go for a Shotoclone, but I might end up making a grappler depending on how things turn out in my head. I'll get to work reading over the character sheets and will make sure not to post up an incomplete or WIP character. Though I will admit I'm not entirely used to the formatting on this site, so if my sheet looks weird when I post it I apologize up front. I'll try my best to make sure it looks presentable though.

I came up with a plot for the people who aren't in the tournament. I'm a genius, right?

▻ Revenge
  • After the fall of their champion, Claudio Carmo, the O Massacre de soldados (the gang responsible for attacking everyone before the tournament) decide to get revenge on the Nomads that are participating in the tournament the only way they know how; by ruining it for everyone. They have a plan, but will it reach fruition?

@Holy SoldierNot really, the similarities kind of start and end at "Created to be a super soldier". Even then the design is pretty different and the people who made Voyt didn't really much care what they'd be setting him out to do as long as they saw profits.

@Drag Is he fuckin' Erron Black????

I like him, accepted.

@wxps350 Also, the match ups aren't displayed until the start of the round (Just to prevent people from going out and screwing with opponents in between rounds). So there's no way SYM-04 or the people running him would know he's fighting Lucas yet.

And (just as a reminder) Justin entered the tournament under an alias.
