Adelheid has been in the story mode only for like 2 games now. Make him playable again dammit.
I'd hate to be part of the group of folks over at SNK who pick who gets in and with XIV's end there's even MORE options, on top of whoever new they wanna introduce. Like there's so many godamn options.Really looking forward to seeing what characters make it into the roster thanks to the story set up at the end of XIV.
Pretty much anyone is fair game to show up (from any game, dead or alive, any time in history, even non-SNK).
Team Last Blade, Team Tekken, Team Fighting EX Layer, Team DOA let's go.

And yes, please, AGAIN. Dude was like the most popular member of Kim's team for several years...and then he got dropped because Eolith wanted to try and have May Lee be poised as a "Korean Athena".
I love the Kamen Rider girl, too, but there was NO WAY she was going to be what they wanted her to be, and we lost out on Jhun for no good reason.
Now that you mention that, I kind of wish they just went back to the original concept of this being an all star SNK game. Add Samurai Shodown, Last Blade and World Heroes characters (there was already Nakoruru in XIV even). Throw in a Metal Slug character too.

On the plus side May Lee is awesome and has her own fighting style that plays nothing like Jhun.
There is no reason for them both not to return.
And let's be honest, there is no reason for Choi/Chang (or Gang Il) to ever make it into a roster over Jhun/May Lee.
I've wanted this for a while myself. I doubt they ever would since she's supposed to be that "cute but deceptively strong" trope, but it'd be nice if they tried making her at least a little chubby like XIII Athena.That one girl who wanted to be a sumo wrestler (Hinako?) but now she's actually built like one.
Ah gotcha.Wonder what happenedLess than 0% chance. From what I remember SNK Community people aren't even allowed to say his name, even on something like Discord.
Watch KOFXV doing exactly what XIV did, have a huge roster in the base game that put most other fighting games that release these days to shame. I'm ready for it.On the plus side May Lee is awesome and has her own fighting style that plays nothing like Jhun.

Yeah KOF kinda became its own thing over time with a huge arsenal of its own original (very popular) characters.
NGBC felt like a counter to that. Its roster was so fresh.
The number of great characters they can choose from is insane.
At least there's DLC now and they aren't locked in post launch like in the old days.
They pretty much ripped off Tetsuo from Akira (even down to having the same VA) and instead of getting sued out the ass just erased him from existence. It's a real shame.
And it'd be one thing if Nameless (his "serial numbers filed off" counterpart) was in the mix regularly, too, but we haven't seen him since 02UM.

Isn't Ash supposed to be good now? Him teaming up with Rugal and Igniz seems wrong Maybe if it was Saiki.I remember I made a roster wishlist months ago (like before EVO I think lol) that mostly catered to my tastes but I think would still please people. I think it went like;
Japan Team/Fatal Fury Team/AoF Team/Kim Team/Ikari Warriors/K' Team/New Faces Team - The usual three
Psycho Soldier Team - Athena, Kensou, Bao
Women Fighters Team - King, Mai, Luong
Iori Team - Iori, Oswald, Shingo (really struggled to find a place for Shingo but settled on this, not happy with it though)
Elisabeth Team - Elisabeth, Duo Lon, Kukiri
Agents Team - Vanessa, Seth, Ramon
Korean Justice Team - Juhn, May Lee, New Character
China Team - Shun'ei, Meitenkun, Mian
NESTS Outcast Team - Nameless, Angel, Krizalid
Adelheid Team - Adelheid, Mature, Vice
South Asia Team - all newcomers
Resurrected Boss Team - Rugal, Igniz, Ash
I think I could die happy if the roster was even close to this but I expect most of these teams to never, ever happen lol.

Very much so! I'd like a suspenders team honestly with some others redesigned.
Ash will always be a tweener leaning toward good so yeah I don't see him teaming up with villains. I think they'll follow through with the xiv ending and have it be Ash, Liz, and Kukri.Isn't Ash supposed to be good now? Him teaming up with Rugal and Igniz seems wrong Maybe if it was Saiki.
Yeah I'd totally be fine with Nameless just taking his spot, shame he's been AWOL like you said. I wonder if he's even canon given he was only in a dream match game.
There's a clear and starling lack of old in this list. Chin ousted for Bao, Tung Fu Rue ousted for Mian. Presumably Yuri instead of Takuma. Gang Li the only one of the new team Kim not coming back. Just Oswald there by his lonesome. (Chang and Choi are ???)
I see how it is.
At the very least, I don't think there's anything indicating that he's a character that they don't care about. He's re-appeared more recently in stuff like KOF All Stars.
That's more than what can be said for the MI and EX misfits who likely NEVER will appear in anything else outside of their subseries. When even the mobile stuff doesn't acknowledge you, you know it's bad!
Meanwhile, Gang Il has a good style, but I can't remember if he himself was well-liked or if it was just his playstyle. Otherwise, they can bench him and just have Luong keeping Kim and Jhun in-line.
May Lee could join any prospective team of choice. Most, if not all of the "pachislot" gang likely ain't returning, right?

Have him use flames, but every time it takes some of his HP away.I just would like Shingo to return with some new mechanics, moves.... even flames!
More like they are happy to have gotten away without getting sued lol.
Iirc they try not to even mention him at SNK anymore.
I wonder if there's any chance we'll get a big shake up on the Fatal Fury team, like Rock joining the team for real, not just as a DLC character.
They (well, Elioth) just went too far with him. It wasn't just a similar design, but also attacks and even voice actor. Compare with Benimaru, who looks like Polnareff but otherwise is his own character. That's why Nameless exists, although even him hasn't gotten much use.
Me me me
I don't care if you can only play with three characters, but each team should have four fighters to choose from IMO.
