Chun-li Vs the masked menace in SF2: the animated movie is one of the greatest fights in anime history.

[@ShadewTheHegenog]

No way?! Chun li fought spider man ?!?!

The song they played for the fight was great. KMFDM - Ultra.

[@willcousiniii2481]

Loved that fight

[@HateSonneillon]

Vega is my favorite character ever since I was a kid. I can't believe I never heard of Matador before. Thank you for this video!

[@clarencegutsy7309]

Vega is the coolest SF character. I've never seen a fighting game character that plays quite like him and his visual design on paper sounds so stupid but in execution is perfect and immediately creates a character you won't forget. Not only that but he's actually interesting from a story/lore perspective. His hatred of ugliness has him obsessed with killing potentially anyone he deems hideous, his love of beauty has him prone to doing acts of strange kindness such as saving Cammy from dying. Psychotic but gallant, a hero in his own mind and a sadistic narcissist to anyone else. He's what happens when you take Prince Charming and mix him with Patrick Bateman. Definitely my favorite villain in SF and should be in every game. Please give him a good reversal and hitboxes, Capcom.

[@OpoumConsumer]

Try Choi Bounge in King Of Fighters

[@casco84]

It's cool how the short film implemented the symbol on Vega's mask as his mom's scar.

[@windowone]

I love these kind of videos, especially made by this guy because he goes into chronological order of the games

[@305VERSATILE]

Vega is one of my favorite characters. Intimidated by the Four Kings before being able to play them, Sagat was 1st and Vega was 2nd of them i played. Im always down to learn more of the Background stories. Hats off to you, Top Hat.

[@jadedj5385]

From design to personality Vega is one of my favorites. Favorite win quotes include: Vs. Hakan: "Just when I thought you could not get any more disgusting I had to touch you" And "Strange… Everyone’s blood is beautiful, even if the owner is not." Just a damn maniac 😂. Please return in SF6

[@dunkmanpr5398]

My main since day one, my friends know , when i pick vega , its gonna be an hard ass fight. Also the reason i learned to do a backflip at 6 years old lol

[@dealpha3698]

Balrog is my favourite SF character since the 90s, I was amazed the first time I saw him climb the wire fence in his stage.

Absolute favorite character since I was a small child. 33 now and it still hasn't changed. Coolest character in street fighter.

[@PaulAnthony-hs1qx]

33?! That's old! 😳

[@User-pu3lc]

Really want Vega in SF6. Very very sad it’s like the first game he wasn’t in the starting roster for.

[@jonathanjackgoodman2764]

Vega and Sagat......went through a couple controllers because of them. May they both rot in a digital hell somewhere.

[@youngpoola3275]

Vega is the G.o.a.t of street fighter once Iearn how to play with him it's on and popping 😊

[@magvs_mæstro216]

What does Vega say on the SNES version when he wins? "Yoga a lay hee" is what eye hear😅

[@rockguy1992]

My all-time favorite fighting character

[@tombrand236]

Loving these SF character videos!!!

[@jamesnorton7601]

I'd like to see a version of Vega a counter character called Mauled. This Vega was brutally beaten by Akuma for his actions against Chun Li who see's it a as vulgar actions of a fighter. Bent claws, deformed and plenty of scars.

[@kennethmaldonado8681]

You that sounds amazing

[@angelvelazquez2249]

Since when does Akuma care for something besides fighting the strongest?

[@komborekt7016]

Viscande Vega from Street Fighter Duel demands your respect!

[@FFVison]

I hated fighting this guy in SF2, especially in the Turbo version. I wonder if Vega is left handed or if he just wears his claw on that hand. In SF2, he always wears it on his foreground hand as the sprite is flipped when he is facing the other way as a programming shortcut.

[@brittislove]

Absolutely great video!

[@christophergordon6250]

We should get a 2026 version of Street Fighter Alpha 3. That would be awesome.

[@F1ghtGam3r]

Still waiting on that Street Fighter X Megaman video ❤

[@thesorrow4664]

Vega is basically the Zlatan of combat sports

[@horuslupercal2385]

OR..... Zlatan views himself as the Vega of world football? 🤔

[@Rising_Light]

Vega's design was partly inspired by the Nameless Asura from Hokuto No Ken 2. His howls and diving were partially inspired by Rei of HNK also.

[@wess2691]

Whenever the hair is brown it’s a good game.. last being sf4 ,

[@Blastopia]

So true I hated how he played 5. I skipped that game after playing him at a friends house

[@christophergordon6250]

Wasn't his default hair color in Street Fighter Alpha 3 blonde? Because that is one of the best Street Fighter games of all times. Which means it breaks that curse.

[@JohnDoe-iz3jd]

Street fighter duel has 3 Vega's

[@kratoscraken5614]

I liked his design and his stroy but i never used him👍. Wait....wasn't Vega originally a blonde 🤔

[@Alexcobra861]

It depends on the games: brown hair in Street Fighter 2, blonde hair in Street Fighter Alpha, brown hair again in Street Fighter 4, then again and finally blonde in Street Fighter 5.

What is the best way to get rid of the smell of the water in your house and then you can use it to clean it up and then you can put it in the fridge for a couple days and then you

[@jonjon6534]

😳I guess it's pretty dangerous to fight a person who prefers death over a mark on his face.

[@theaquariancontrarian3316]

I was pissed when they gutted his abilities in sf2 new challengers edition.

[@anasevi9456]

The only other effete antagonist to straight up disturb me as a sprog on the same level as Vega growing up; was early portrayals of Him from the Powerpuff girls. Just such unapologetic narcissus and sociopathy eminates from Vega. Reminds me, only reason to watch that old Street Fighter Animated movie from the 1990s was the fight with him and Chung Lee, my older brother showed it to me as a kid and it still holds up. Rest of that movie?; nope.

[@BlackLabbi]

This was my favorite Charakter in my Youth 😁

[@geneglenn5119]

I noticed a mistake in your video. Vega and bison names were swapped in America releases from Japan not Vega and balrog

[@moniqueloomis9772]

No. His name is Balrog in Japan. It's credited that way in the Japanese animated series.
