Street Fighter’s legendary cast has seen many changes since the prominence of the penny arcade. New challengers bring quirks in terms of moveset and personality, but the signature characters have proven installment after installment that you can teach old veterans new tricks. Selecting a main is a mix of trial and error, influence, and maybe even a bit of luck. If you’re a fan of footsies, crafty keep away, or powerful pressure, then you’re already one step closer to choosing your character. Play your favorites and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

How to Get Better at Street Fighter V?
Constantly playing more games seems like the best way to improve, however it isn’t efficient and may even hamper progress. Instead focusing on one specific combo or strategy at a time yields better results. Drop into training mode regularly and work on combos, defense, and movement before jumping online. Fundamentals first!
