Kinda forgot about doing this for a while lol
Inclusion: I was loosely familiar with SNK before Terry's intro, so I was a bit beyond the level of people going "Who???" at the sight of him. His inclusion encouraged me to get more familiar with SNK's lineup of arcade titles and I was amazed by how good all of these were. I'd honestly consider them on par with Capcom's arcade output, if not a bit better. Terry was absolutely a great inclusion to represent this company.

Fighter: I was a big fan of him at first, but I think that the other FG reps do more for me gameplay wise. The shotos and Kazuya just do way more interesting things with their toolkits than Terry does for my liking. Not to say he's bad, far from it. I really like the mechanic where he gets super moves over 100%. they're always incredibly satisfying to pull off.

Stage: KoF Arena is one of my favorite stages in the entire game. It's incredibly unique for how its wall mechanics work and make it enjoyable in a way most walk-offs fail to. It's really at its best when in a chaotic free for all, with everyone flying through the walls at every turn.

Music: Okay so they just went insane with the music for no reason. 50 songs spanning throughout SNK's vast library, with more of a focus on KoF. Pretty much all of the inclusions are great, and the remixes are pretty strong too, I really like that they gave one to Stormy Saxophone especially. They knocked it out of the park here.

Great pick and they're all cowards for not giving Terry a Garou alt, hat be damned.
