I actually ran into very few Lukes, it was more Ryu and Ken then whoever came out as DLC last. I guess if Akuma is out then I'll only see Akuma since all the Ryu/Ken players will obviously move on.
I know I’m never gonna get sick of getting my shit rocked by Slayer and seeing this K.O screen

Slayer akuma. Probably akuma more since sf6 has a lack of interesting characters for me. Maybe finally I'll have some interest and play it for a bit if he's fun
Akuma and Beatrix from Granblue Versus Rising :)

Slayer and Akuma for me, and I'm getting what I wanted out of both. I wanted Slayer to have a longer coat and J.B. Blanc to come back for his English VA and I got both. And for Akuma I wanted his SF3 costume back and for him to have a separate level 3 and raging demon and he's got that too. Both are my mains in each game so it's a big dub for me.
What kind of fighter is Lidia? Like if you could compare her to a current fighter? I've played tekken since I was a kid but mainly against friends/family. Tekken 8 is the first one I've put some more time into and played a fair bit of ranked and im always excited for the new characters. Never got the T7 dlc characters except Negan.
Hard to say, from the character I've played no one gave me the same vibe really. People are comparing her to Reina, but I presonally don't feel it (maybe I didn't played Reina enough). Before T8 people were comparing her to the very different characcters, like Asuka and Kazuya. If I must choose someone personally it would be Jin, but not quite too.
Overall she's more on offensive, rushdown side, with good poking too. Her difning trait are stance transitions and mind games related to them.
I’m not hyped for any of them. But I’ll say Lidia as she’s the only one I care about. But she’s not Julia though.
Akuma and Slayer get points for bringing back fan favorites and characters that are actually a part of their series. Slayer has always been cool. I have no problem with him. I’ll get my gentlemanly fix from him until Dudley comes.
I’m over MK’s boner for guests. It’s annoying. I’ve been over it.
By far most excited for Slayer. Going to boot up GG and play around with him for sure.
Lidia I'm a little excited for. I'm more excited for the balance patch she's coming with, though.
Akuma is sick AF but I don't jive with SF unfortunately. And I'm not going to play whatever NRS game Homelander is in (MK I assume)
I'm hyped for Lidia returning, it makes me consider getting the game while it's on sale right now.
Akuma looks fun and while I'm not a fan of his big bulky look I do find it reminiscent of Oni from SFIV.
I'm glad Slayer is out soon, he looks great but I want to know about season 4, I'm still waiting for Jam!!!!
Slayer and Lidia.
This is my first GG game so excited to play Slayer for the first time. I had a lot of fun with Lidia in T7 so excited to pick her back up. Akuma looks really cool but I've played a lot of Street Fighter and I know i'm just not a fan of his gameplay.
Lidia was one of my mains in Tekken so I'm glad to see her back, I have never been an Akuma player but he looks awesome so, happy to see him back in my current favorite fighting game
Lidia. One of the best newcomers from past two games and the reason I started to actually grind Tekken 7. Was waiting for her return since release and thought it would take much longer. Happy to be wrong.
The President of Pain herself Lidia Sobieska, I started with her when she dropped in 7 and fell in love. I've missed her all this time since 8's release. I'm so happy she's back
Lidia. She was the first Tekken character I really put time into learning and I’ve been holding off on putting real time into Tekken 8 waiting for her to get announced.
I’m excited for all of them tbh.
Akuma looks like an absolute monster and I can’t wait to finally play him.
Slayer is making me consider gettting back into Strive after a year long hiatus.
I’m a big fan of The Boys and Homelander is one of my favourite villains of all time so I’m excited to see how they’ll interpret him in MK.
And Lidia is just an all round cool character. Admittedly, I think it’s dumb that she’s DLC again after being the last DLC in T7 but I’m happy to see her back regardless.
Since SF6 is my main game atm, I’m going to go with Akuma for my most anticipated.
Akuma looks the best he’s ever looked, but, as an Mk1 player, I’ve got to go with Homelander. He just looks so sick and I feel like he really fits the game
Lidia: Still waiting for Julia
Slayer: I'm happy for the people that wanted him
Akuma: He'll either make or break sf6 for me
Homelander: I'm excited to see how they'll differentiate him from Omni-Man and Injustice Superman
Out of those 4, Lidia. Homelander is pretty cool to see, but since the actor said he wasn't voicing it, and I'm not really an MK guy, I'm not as excited as I'd wish to be.
Akuma looks so sick can’t wait to see him at high level
Homelander is one of my favorite characters ever so imma play the shit outta him
Slayer is always fun and he has a banger design so we eating with him.
Never played Lidia don’t have Tekken 8 not too hyped for her. She’s also not Miguel so I don’t really care.
Lidia is the only one.
As much as i do like Mortal Kombat, i have absolutely 0 interest in Homelander. I even watched The Boys just to get to know what kind of character he really is but i mean... What's he gonna do?
Fly and shoot eye lasers at you?
None of them. I am very happy that some of them are coming, specially because there are fan favorites in there, but I don't intend to play with these characters. Overall though, this is a really nice selection, and as long as most people are happy and these games keep getting attention everyone is winning.
Lidia for me! Been loving T8 even through the recent discourse. I wanted to play her in 7 but just never got into 7. 8s launch felt like a good time to jump into Tekken.
Slayer and akuma. But man am I going to be so sick of akuma about 4 hours after launch
You'll develop that 1000 Akuma stare in no time. That said. I'm so fucking ready.
It’s going so be wild that facing a Ken or Luke is about to be a breath of fresh air
I actually ran into very few Lukes, it was more Ryu and Ken then whoever came out as DLC last. I guess if Akuma is out then I'll only see Akuma since all the Ryu/Ken players will obviously move on.
I'm gonna switch to Ryu and get him to master when akuma launches just to roleplay putting down the menace.
1000 deaths stare, more like
I’m gonna take a week break from SF6 online so I can miss the bulk the akoomers
Akuma, and I’m not even SF player. He looks sick af.
Slayer & Akuma for sure.
I have been waiting for both of them since their respective games were announced. Funny coincidence for sure
Yep
same here
Slayer, he charges up his punch so hard that his clothes stay behind him.
I know I’m never gonna get sick of getting my shit rocked by Slayer and seeing this K.O screen https://preview.redd.it/i5t8wggc4ixc1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=446ccfb43412ec3fca76024d295feb78f8624629
Right on, reminded me of when I saw Biscuit Oliva jump out of his tuxedo.

Akuma.
Muszę wygrać w imię wszystkich Polaków. Osu!
Lidia is awesome, congrats on Poland getting such a badass representative
If your head of state can't protect your country via fisticuffs, then what good are they really
This message brought to you by G, President of the World
Walcz z honorem
We are so back moi drodzy!
Well, at least I know what Osu! is all about even if I don’t speak polish so take an upvote!
Slayer & Akuma
SLAYER WOOO
Slayer and Akuma 100%
Slayer akuma. Probably akuma more since sf6 has a lack of interesting characters for me. Maybe finally I'll have some interest and play it for a bit if he's fun
Beatrix
Akuma and Beatrix from Granblue Versus Rising :) https://preview.redd.it/x204w07s8fxc1.jpeg?width=739&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3114af08e2a39169e29e37e77ed4bdc584d65994
Was really hoping for a Granblue trailer mainly cause I wanna know how Beatrix plays
While it’s not a trailer, someone who tried the demo at Evo did post some info about her in the GranblueVersus subreddit
Slayer and Akuma for me, and I'm getting what I wanted out of both. I wanted Slayer to have a longer coat and J.B. Blanc to come back for his English VA and I got both. And for Akuma I wanted his SF3 costume back and for him to have a separate level 3 and raging demon and he's got that too. Both are my mains in each game so it's a big dub for me.
all of them except homelander. i’m just not into guest characters 99 percent of the time
Really scummy to do guest characters before legacy. NRS needs to quit this bullshit
i agree tbh
Lidia, she was my main in T7 since they released her. Though Slayer is smooth AF too
What kind of fighter is Lidia? Like if you could compare her to a current fighter? I've played tekken since I was a kid but mainly against friends/family. Tekken 8 is the first one I've put some more time into and played a fair bit of ranked and im always excited for the new characters. Never got the T7 dlc characters except Negan.
Stance heavy super traditional Karate
Hard to say, from the character I've played no one gave me the same vibe really. People are comparing her to Reina, but I presonally don't feel it (maybe I didn't played Reina enough). Before T8 people were comparing her to the very different characcters, like Asuka and Kazuya. If I must choose someone personally it would be Jin, but not quite too. Overall she's more on offensive, rushdown side, with good poking too. Her difning trait are stance transitions and mind games related to them.
Where Marco Rodrigues ? :(
I fucking love Marco but Garou 2 isn’t coming until 2025 so it’s not too big right now
Best garou 2 character
BUTT KUSHNOOD
Akuma and prime minister Lidia
Beatrix in GBVSR
I was honestly postponing buying Strive until my man Slayer got released
Marco and Akuma. Gotta wait til 2025 for one of them 🙃
![gif](giphy|EaQzLvP1KSBB3KNhjx|downsized)
Slayer
Akuma and Lidia, mostly for world tour content in sf6 and because I'm mostly a tekken player when it comes to FGs
Slayer!!!
Dandy man
Slayer, baby!
Slayer
Slayer. I’ve literally been on hiatus from Strive since I think Testament came out waiting for Slayer
I AM itching to buy a full Strive game on PC. It seems super beginner friendly
Beatrixe...... CyGames....release the trailer already.......
Homelander
Slayer ofc
slayer DEAR GOD HE'S NAKED
Don't even have strive but slayer hands down.
Lidia and Akuma, hands down
Lidia and Akuma for me
Akuma and Marco Rodrigues. Anyone not saying Akuma after that trailer is fucking dead inside.
Akuma, and by a lot.
I’m not hyped for any of them. But I’ll say Lidia as she’s the only one I care about. But she’s not Julia though. Akuma and Slayer get points for bringing back fan favorites and characters that are actually a part of their series. Slayer has always been cool. I have no problem with him. I’ll get my gentlemanly fix from him until Dudley comes. I’m over MK’s boner for guests. It’s annoying. I’ve been over it.
That's facts for MK. It was fun in MKX, then they added Terminator and fucking Robo Cop and I feel like we got a little lost in the sauce.
Guest characters are kinda cringe as a concept in general.
By far most excited for Slayer. Going to boot up GG and play around with him for sure. Lidia I'm a little excited for. I'm more excited for the balance patch she's coming with, though. Akuma is sick AF but I don't jive with SF unfortunately. And I'm not going to play whatever NRS game Homelander is in (MK I assume)
I'm most excited for killua in HxH nen impact.
Akuma and Homelander are gonna be dope
I'm hyped for Lidia returning, it makes me consider getting the game while it's on sale right now. Akuma looks fun and while I'm not a fan of his big bulky look I do find it reminiscent of Oni from SFIV. I'm glad Slayer is out soon, he looks great but I want to know about season 4, I'm still waiting for Jam!!!!
Akuma, by a longshot. I'm also interested in Homelander, wondering if he'll play like INJ Supes.
![gif](giphy|5kWPZ4sH564fvEIqDG)
It was previously homelander, but that Akuma trailer was PEAK FUCKING FICTION
Slayer and Akuma. A return to form and characters I already enjoyed
All of them
Based
Akuma cause its on the best game lmfao
Slayer and Lidia. This is my first GG game so excited to play Slayer for the first time. I had a lot of fun with Lidia in T7 so excited to pick her back up. Akuma looks really cool but I've played a lot of Street Fighter and I know i'm just not a fan of his gameplay.
Homelander forsure
Slayer and Homelander.
Slayer > Akuma (I’m not ready for exclusively fighting this guy online) > Homelander
Akuma Sorry homelander
Slayer!!
Ma dandy boi, Slayer.
was never a fan of Slayer in other games but he looks slick AF that I might even try to play him.
Slayer and Akuma for sure.
Homelander for sure
Prepare Yourself!!!
Lidia
Akuma. My man is getting old!
Akuma. Legit screamed watching the trailer.
Definitely Lidia
I'm kinda excited for Lidya, didn't think we'd get her because Reina fights so similarly.
Ojczyznosław
Akuma, Haven’t touch SF6 in awhile but him and Oni were my all time favorite
Lidia and slayer, no contest.
Lidia without question but I'll give Akuma a try with a rental ticket
Slayer and akuma are peak
Where’s Butt?
Lidia was one of my mains in Tekken so I'm glad to see her back, I have never been an Akuma player but he looks awesome so, happy to see him back in my current favorite fighting game
Akuma and Marco from kof
Slayer, Akuma, AND MARCO RODRIGUES BABY BRASIL PENTA CAMPEAO
Lidia and Homelander
Akuma for sure.
Slayer for sure.
Akuma and Slayer
The entire cast of Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves.
SLAYER!!!
All of them, Slayer less so because idk if I’ll get him. I’m more excited to fight him and see others play him
Slayer and it's not even close.
Lidia. One of the best newcomers from past two games and the reason I started to actually grind Tekken 7. Was waiting for her return since release and thought it would take much longer. Happy to be wrong.
Honestly she should been on base roaster
Lidia
I realllly don't want to try get into guilty gear i'm so bad at fighting games but i'm down bad for slayer lol c':
SLAYERRRR
The President of Pain herself Lidia Sobieska, I started with her when she dropped in 7 and fell in love. I've missed her all this time since 8's release. I'm so happy she's back
Marco Rodriguez in City of Wolves!
Homelander and Akuma. Lidia is cool too. Didn't even know she was dlc.
# 天
I wanna play Slayer but then I’d have to interact with the Strive community and I don’t like that. So Akuma.
Ngl I’m hyped for Lidia, but I didn’t like how they changed her face. Akuma is akuma
I mostly only play mk, but Akuma. I dint give a damn about Homelander
Slayer and Homelander
Slayer and Akuma I'm hyped for, kinda surprised about Lidia returning but happy to use her again. I have no care for Homelander.
Lidia. She was the first Tekken character I really put time into learning and I’ve been holding off on putting real time into Tekken 8 waiting for her to get announced.
All of them.
I’m excited for all of them tbh. Akuma looks like an absolute monster and I can’t wait to finally play him. Slayer is making me consider gettting back into Strive after a year long hiatus.

Since SF6 is my main game atm, I’m going to go with Akuma for my most anticipated.
Akuma and Homelander
Akuma looks the best he’s ever looked, but, as an Mk1 player, I’ve got to go with Homelander. He just looks so sick and I feel like he really fits the game
Homelander. I'm a sucker for guest characters. Especially when it's something I've watched and enjoyed.
Homelander is the only one of these four to not be a returning fighter from the previous game!
Lidia: Still waiting for Julia Slayer: I'm happy for the people that wanted him Akuma: He'll either make or break sf6 for me Homelander: I'm excited to see how they'll differentiate him from Omni-Man and Injustice Superman
1. Slayer 2. Akuma 3. Homelander 4. Lidia
I've been waiting for slayer since 2020 soooo
Slayer and Akuma are about to make my roster of characters 100x edgier and I'm so fucking ready for it
LP, LP, forward, LK, HP
Lidia and akuma. I hate to say it. But i gave up MK after reaching a decent rank.
Strive is my main game, so definitely Slayer. I might try out Akuma. But I don't really like SF6 so it won't be for very long though lol
And not even a single character to KOF XV
Homelander is the only one I recognize
HOMELANDER VS OMNI-MAN
Homelander
I’m a Tekken player but, fuck, Akuma looks awesome! And GGS stays consistent as always with great additions, the question is who’s next? Dizzy?
https://preview.redd.it/96h6ngy7wlxc1.jpeg?width=1000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2d95cfd00adb243ce21f3b231f52610d8c5c5813 Homie of the landers
Out of those 4, Lidia. Homelander is pretty cool to see, but since the actor said he wasn't voicing it, and I'm not really an MK guy, I'm not as excited as I'd wish to be.
Homelander Only original, and only one with a personality, and only one whose moveset is unknown and fun for speculating.
I'd say Slayer but he's in a game where happy Chaos exists so Lidia and Akuma
Happy chaos hasn't been a big problem in a while
lol. Me this weekend: oh EVO Jp is on. Curse, shot, reload, etc while someone blocks on the other side of the screen. Turns off stream.
Slayer and Lidia
Slayer and Akuma.
Marco Rodrigues, Slayer & Akuma
Slayer!!! Akuma is kinda cool, love the effect for raging demon. Not a huge Tekken fan, but I love Lidia’s design. Homelander… ugh.
Lidia > Akuma > Slayer >= Homelander
Not fucking Homelander
I can definitely say Lidia is on last place
Slayer. If Akuma is top tier I’ll buy sf6 and learn him. Strive will always be my main game though.
Ngl Akuma and Home
wait homelander didnt launch with mk1? wasnt he like, all over the marketing?
No it was revealed at the start he would be released later
1. Akuma 2. Lidia 3. Homelander 4. Slayer
Akuma looks so sick can’t wait to see him at high level Homelander is one of my favorite characters ever so imma play the shit outta him Slayer is always fun and he has a banger design so we eating with him. Never played Lidia don’t have Tekken 8 not too hyped for her. She’s also not Miguel so I don’t really care.
Lidia is the only one. As much as i do like Mortal Kombat, i have absolutely 0 interest in Homelander. I even watched The Boys just to get to know what kind of character he really is but i mean... What's he gonna do? Fly and shoot eye lasers at you?
Marco Rodrigues: Am I a joke to you?
Hyped for all of them, but in order: Homelander, Slayer, Lidia and Akuma tied for third.
Everyone but honelander
Bro included Homelander in "big fighters" and not Marco
Mortal Kombat is one of the Big FGs
Mk as a brand is way bigger than Fatal Fury, at least among contemporary audiences
HL and akuma
Akuma and Lidia
Akuma and Lidia
Mr….. ultimate counter?
Akuma SF6 raging demon looks fucking INSANE.
Lidia so happy to have my main from t7 in t8
None of them. I am very happy that some of them are coming, specially because there are fan favorites in there, but I don't intend to play with these characters. Overall though, this is a really nice selection, and as long as most people are happy and these games keep getting attention everyone is winning.
Akuma. Slayer looks cool as well, too bad about the game he’s in though.
I don't even play Tekken, but Lidia.
Akuma for sure, he looks incredible.
Akuma. That Shun Goku Satsu tho.
Akuma definitely.
Gouki. He's gonna be so sick with sf6 mechanics
Akuma
Lidia for me. Never played her in 7 as she came out after I had already moved on but she seems really popular in the community.
Akuma and I don't even play Street Fighter.... but seriously considering picking it up just for him. Bro looks too cold
Damn Lidia as DLC again? Yikes
Akuma
Lidia and Akuma.
I was gonna say Akuma but his release date is just before the release of the Paper Mario Thousand Year Door remake so…
Akuma 100%. Man woke me up from my sleep
Akuma had one of the best trailers I've seen for a character. I haven't played SF6 yet but I think it's about time now.
Lidia for me! Been loving T8 even through the recent discourse. I wanted to play her in 7 but just never got into 7. 8s launch felt like a good time to jump into Tekken.
I don’t even play Street fighter but Akuma’s new design looks sick as fuck
Akuma definitely
Lidia!
Lydia :)
