After waiting three months since his reveal, Luke has finally come out… and his story tells us absolutely nothing about Luke's future. The good news is that Luke's story doesn't give me the same feeling of rage that Akira's story did. The bad news is I don't feel anything from his story at all. I've … Continue reading Q Hand Luke →

In August of 2021, Wizards of the Coast announced a Magic: The Gathering crossover with Street Fighter for their ongoing Secret Lair series. While a timeframe has not been released as of the publishing of this article, reactions have been mixed to Street Fighter's inclusion in the card game. Players make the argument that IPs … Continue reading Street Fighter is Magic: The Gathering of Thoughts →

One of the hardest things for a lore theorycrafter to do is make a theory on someone that doesn't have much of a backstory. Birdie is an interesting case. Even though he's a recognizable legacy character, there isn't a whole lot to really theorize on with him. He does, however, have one mystery to him … Continue reading What A Little Birdie Told Me →

Something kept nagging me about Akira's story mode in Street Fighter V. I hated it with a passion because, on the surface, it's all fluff and fanservice. I hated it because there was a better story that could have been told that would have given Akira a more solid reason to be in the game … Continue reading Ibuki: Sugar and Sadness →

If you're into the story of fighting games, … Continue reading Luke, He Is Your Father →

However, the information I've found has been incredibly scattered. I can't really use a lot of the tidbits that have come my way because they're too singular. I … Continue reading Ibuki: The Consequences of Love →

It was quite welcome to see Oro's story advancing the plot of Street Fighter V. While Oro himself wasn't privy to any major conflicts, only engaging with some friendly sparring with Rose and Dhalsim, his story did something no other character's story has done so far - it made Street Fighter look intellectual. Oro, being … Continue reading Searching for Gold: The Wisdom of Oro →

Akira's story in Street Fighter V is a way too sugar-sweet tale of a bunch of girls who got together to have a tea party. As much as I hated what Capcom did with the story, I struggled to find anything at all that could give it any sort of purpose besides what we had … Continue reading The Truth About the Kanzuki Tea Party →

I was looking forward to Akira's story mode, pondering where Capcom could potentially go with it. Akira's backstory is kind of dark, what with her brother being brainwashed twice and her having to rescue him on both accounts with her friends. I was hoping that Capcom would stretch their writing abilities with her and give … Continue reading Akira Kazama’s Bittersweet Symphony →

I had no idea what I was going to write for my 100th article, but I knew I needed something big to commemorate the moment. What theory could I possibly write that was worthy of being the 100th? It would need to have an impact. It would need to be eye-opening. It needed to wait … Continue reading The Street Fighter Gospel of Luke →
