You are right, but that doesn't stop the Suchong tribe from going after Ryu like a Zerg rushZachary Amaranth said:
What might stop them though is that they don't share Erin's hallucinations.
He shall be spared.[footnote]Captcha: the tribe has spoken [footnote]this thing is freaking me out sometimes... [/footnote][/footnote]
I'm not sure they can risk a thinning of the herd. What if "Suchong" is sick again?Sewa_Yunga said:You are right, but that doesn't stop the Suchong tribe from going after Ryu like a Zerg rush

That pound cake must have been very difficult to carry into this thread. Here, I shall contemplate the meaning of this deep (dumpster deep) iteration of C.M. (and how a homeless man maintains such a physique) while you listen to someDaystar Clarion said:

P.S. I do not think that calisthenics alone would cut it.
What's curious to me is that Bison, with his criminal spanning empire, creates clones of himself to transplant his mind in to should he be killed. Chooses a sexy blonde girl as his intended.

There aren't a lot of backstories for fighters beyond "They fight because why the fuck not." is there?
There are but they are largely isolated to movies/etc, the games themselves do a terrible job of storytelling. At least Tekken tried to have a story. In case of Ryu, a lot of his personal story is based around defeating the primary antagonists like Sagat, M.Bison and finally Seth.ThunderCavalier said:
The SF2 movie (the only good one as far as most fans are concerned) is the one where we get an insight into Ryu's "idle" life. He wonders the world (barefoot like a real man), gets his money from street fights (duh?) and/or doing people favors and helping the weak. That's...about it
Also Sakura keeps running all over the place blurting "Where's Ryu? Anyone seen Ryu? I'm looking for Ryu!" in her cute little school uniform.
Ryu is comparable to Goku in the sense that he doesn't really live for any other reason than to seek friendly fights, never kill (or even seriously wound) anyone and keep getting stronger...but at least Goku had the balls to settle down with a woman and have kids -_-
But hey, I think Ryu is one of the few people where people know him for his MOVES instead of his story. I mean which gamer anywhere doesn't recognize this:
Goku thought marriage was a food and entered into an arrangement he had no actual understanding of. Because he's a good man, he went through with it AND there are only so many women who would put up with a man like him. Ryu on the other hand has more than two brain cells to rub together: there are plenty of ways a man as physically fit and able as Ryu could find 'off the books' work that pays in cash (unskilled labour in construction) or services (deckhand or other scut work on a cargo ship).Yuuki said:There are but they are largely isolated to movies/etc, the games themselves do a terrible job of storytelling.

Well, they don't have to go after Ryu with their whole tribe... And they can attack him while he sleeps to keep their losses as low as possibleZachary Amaranth said:I'm not sure they can risk a thinning of the herd. What if "Suchong" is sick again?

I think there are only a few rats in the tribe that may be able to become a Suchong anyway; those with markings similar to the original Suchong's and those with no markings at all (like the current Suchong who was "marked" by the priest).
Now that I think of it, we need a comic featuring the new Suchong. He needs to prove himself worthy of his heritage!
Most professional athletes have expenses to pay which Ryu doesn't. Even a small tournament would provide enough money for a plane ticket, a few nights in a cheap hotel and his meals. Then it's off to the next fight. Ryu doesn't even need to use training facilities as he makes his own. You would be surprised how far $1000 will go when you live as a nomad.Pogilrup said:
