Tired of the boys vs. girls argument? Tired of your favorite character being erased from history? Tired of the bickering of who's a top tier? Tired of heartlessly grinding your matchups to no avail? Tired of crying for patch on patch on patch (you know who you are). Well then. This is the path for you. Here I will list the different archetypes as seen in fighting games. The deal: pick three of them to create an answer for all of your potential matchups that fit your style. In every fighting game, there are a few mainstays that never get erased from the game, and are there for teaching purposes. Everyone should choose at least one of these types of characters, a BALANCED character. One should also choose someone who can give OFFENSIVE ability and DEFENSIVE ability in times of need. That's it really. Some archetypes do crossover, but be aware when this happens. You can tell pretty much when you play or look at a character where they exactly fall. And with a dedicated grind to perfect your archetype, you too can achieve greatness, against the AI, your friends, locals, and tourneys across the globe. Happy triage creation!
