When it comes to Street Fighter 6, there are several characters on the game’s playable roster that undoubtedly give us nightmares. Whether you wake up in a cold sweat screaming “OD Amnesia!!” or see Luke’s crouching medium punch every time you close your eyes… there are certainly some tough things to deal with found within this game.
But what if someone took several of the best zoning tools in the entire game (with a dash of Juri’s up kicks sprinkled in) and threw them all together? Well, this custom avatar does exactly that, and trust me when I tell you that this is the ultimate Street Fighter 6 nightmare fuel.
Believe it or not, custom avatar battles are actually quite popular in Street Fighter 6. The game allows you to design your very own fighter and equip them with various moves stemming from the entire playable cast, and once you’ve done that, you can hop into the Battle Hub to meet up with other players and slug it out in fun bouts with your avatars.
Naturally, there isn’t much in the way of regulation when it comes to these creations. So you can technically craft a fighter that has Dhalsim’s stretchy limbs and an SPD, if your heart desired it.
This clip from Twitter user lionthegameshow shows two avatars in the heat of battle, and one of the creations here is legit the stuff of nightmares.
Imagine a character who has JP’s portals and ground spikes, Guile’s Sonic Booms, Dhalsim’s arching fireballs, and Juri’s up kicks… yeah. That’s exactly what this avatar is.
The base of the character seems to be built off of Juri, meaning this fighter has her walk speed and normals attacks. But the rest of this avatar has what is essentially all of the best zoning tools you can find in the game.
This design is perfect in its planning, as JP’s spikes and portals cover the ground and air space, Guile’s Sonic Booms are fast and cover the horizontal space in front of them, and Dhalsim’s arching fireballs cover jump ins. If the opponent does manage to get too close, they eat a big Dragon Punch that covers a wide space in front of them.
It’s a horrifying creation, but also kind of brilliant. Either way, it’s terrifying to see in action, so hide under you blanket and hit the play button below to see this insane Street Fighter 6 avatar creation.
