Also Steve is amazing.
First time in any FG I have found a character that stylistically, aesthetically and conceptually fits. I almost always have to concede some point when I pick characters because I prefer, aesthetically, make characters of medium build. Not, like, Gief who's enormous and not like Yun and Yang or are slight. Conceptually I prefer grounded characters based on a somewhat realistic moveset. Ie a jab looks like a jab, not some batshit backflip, twisting, green energy emitting travesty. If a move is mean to act as a long range poke, it looks like a long range poke, etc. Stylistically however, I prefer very quick, mobile characters who's moveset doesn't look unrealistic, but can still be tricky and dictate pace well.
Rarely do these add up, I usually end up on female characters actually because they most often have the playstyle I prefer, of the fast, mobile, tricky character (I should also.mention that I don't play weak characters.. I almost exclusively recruit from a+ or better - though in Tekken that's largely moot) and I get stuck on them because at the end of the day, playstyle to me is the most important..
But Steve is quite fast. Very mobile and extremely tricky, with a. MOveset grounded in actual boxing (liberties taken obviously) while meeting my more down to earth requirements in appearance and such.
This post serves no purpose. I wanted to play Steve from shortly before launch (I hadn't seen much of him up until that point) but kept reading to pick an easier character, since he's considered very difficult to play.. so I passed over him.. but fuck it. I have Leo who is as easy as it gets for the level of reward (my god B+1+4 is beautiful and bullshit all at once) so I'ma work on Steve.
This has been another pointless post that adds nothing. Thank you for your time and attention.
