Fighting Games I've Played Ranked By The Most Fucked Up Freak On The Roster

The greatest promise of a fighting game is that you can play as a guy who's just an absolute freak of nature

Merkava

Undisputed Fighting Game Freak GOAT. This guy will command grab you from across the screen, fly off with your dead body post match, and then say some shit that uses like five SAT words. Absolute king shit.

1

Melty Blood: Type Lumina
Melty Blood: Type Lumina
Neco-Arc

Just an absolute cognitohazard all around. Neco-Arc is in your walls.

2

Street Fighter V
Street Fighter V
Blanka

The blueprint for all these guys, one of the first and one of the best to ever do it.

3

Guilty Gear: Strive
Guilty Gear: Strive
Faust

Faust is the doctor that's in it purely for the love of the game, but the game in question happens to be malpractice. This guy moves in ways that should not be possible

4

MultiVersus
MultiVersus
Taz

For all of the shortcomings of this game, putting the Tazmanian Devil in a fighting game was one of their best ideas.

5

Skullgirls: 2nd Encore
Skullgirls: 2nd Encore
Double

Everyone loves a good flesh golem. It is deeply unsettling to use a move as this character.

6

Slap City
Slap City
Ultra Fishbunjin 3000

God I love this guy. Who wouldn't want to play as a shredded platypus thing that throws dumbbells at people?

7

Duck Game
Duck Game
Meeee

Plenty of quality freak hats to choose from, but this one I think is the champ. Barely comprehensible what this thing even is supposed to be.

8

BlazBlue: Central Fiction
BlazBlue: Central Fiction
Arakune

This is what I think Shy Guy would be like if their mask was not sealing away their true power. Zato Guilty Gear if he was cool.

9

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Wario

Somewhat controversial pick here, but I think Wario embodies the freak spirit the most. He is weird and has the Freak Moveset, which is based on vibes but I know it when I see it.

10

Tekken 7
Tekken 7
Kuma

Literally just a bear. Gotta love it. Tekken is full of freaks but I can't get enough of an actual real bear in a fighting game.

11

SoulCalibur VI
SoulCalibur VI
Astaroth

Big ol' axe guy goes chop chop. Simple as.

12

Rivals of Aether
Rivals of Aether
Hodan

In a game full of weird animals its hard to stand out, but I think the ape hitting you with a wet towel takes the cake.

13

BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle
BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle
Blitztank

An actual tank. I didn't play Akatsuki Blitzkampf, but I did play BBTAG so this counts. Akatsuki is my UNICLR goat tho.

14

Granblue Fantasy: Versus
Granblue Fantasy: Versus
Vaseraga

I played this game for like an hour but this guy seems pretty spooky. The real freak is whoever decided you had to play 7 ranked matches before you could direct connect.
