all right I'd like to introduce you to
the newest sherry in ScrewAttack apparel
I thought we weren't supposed to make
any new size until we sold out of the
old stuff
yeah don't you worry about that anyway
let me present to you the brand new top
10 shirt isn't that just a 10 year
anniversary
no top 10 tation hey click the link in
the description to buy the brand-new not
in any way old top 10 shirt if you don't
imma get eaten when I first started
working at screwed tag back in 2008 we
used to have this ritual where after
work every single day we would play
Street Fighter 3 and new generation that
was my introduction to fighting game and
I've been playing them ever since and in
that time I wonder there are so many
weird bizarre creepy fighting in
characters that exist out there more
than you might realize
hey I'm never sick for screwattack's top
10 here fighting game characters number
10 I just I just don't understand this
one
are you sure taking a game about
collecting little monsters that fight
each other and building a fighter around
them is genius pokken tournament is
Tekken for Pokemon fans and one of the
most interesting things about pokken is
all the strange fighters that could
appear but looking at the 600-plus
pokemon and being like yeah let's put
Chandelure in here has to be one of the
weirdest decision not to mention that
Chandelure is this one of the weirdest
Pokemon period yeah I get it though its
Pokemon you don't want to fill it up
with just the obvious sumo wrestlers
kickboxers ninjas and fist fighters but
doing so for a freaking lamp that's it's
just a possessed chandelier the upper
crust silver spoon of lamp man Wiker may
have gotten something like blast aways
instead
Blastoise put up a pretty good fight in
our Pokemon battle royale just saying
number nine when own osan decided that
the PlayStation versions of Street
Fighter cross Tekken II to their classic
Mega Man treatment series creator in a
food Ehsan challenge tend to come up
with quote something original so we
ended up with Mega Man but mostly his
bad box art for this versions got 25
years of what can only be assumed to be
hard-drinking
and/or
desert after every meal I mean look at
him he's aged terribly he doesn't look
anything like a fighter but yet in the
world of Street Fighter cross Tekken
he's as athletic as ever as a digger bad
boxart Megaman is sort of like a poor
man's Tomb Raider role gives him a call
in hold on a second that's role
how can one robot turn into hot Kristen
Bell and the other turned into Steven
Seagal and spandex and dr. light is some
sort of monster anyway bad box start
mega man's appearance is on par with
some of the other weirdos you might find
in a game like Street Fighter cross
Tekken but it's still pretty unsettling
to see the blue bomber in such poor
health remember kids diabetes is no joke
that means number eight you know
Capcom's decision to make a
paper-pushing lawyer join the fighting
game universe may have seen the north of
ox at the time but attorney phoenix
wright has made himself quite a
competitor in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom
3 it isn't so strange that this
well-dressed Mansion Grayson already
bizarre franchise but what makes Phoenix
truly odd is how he fights which is to
say he doesn't fight he just launches an
investigation and takes you to court I'm
not kidding his strategy is to collect
evidence across the battlefield and nail
a conviction where the sentence is
damned so if Phoenix manages to stack
three pieces of evidence and hits them
with an objection this otherwise low
tier becomes God's here in a matter of
seconds and that's not to mention that a
lot of Phoenix's normal moves or stuff
like summoning sawlogs or is assistant
Maya or pacing back and forth that hits
you a thousand times for some reason
this guy's so weird
whether it's a well-timed sneeze
launcher or a la P paper toss Phoenix is
constantly setting up the opposing party
to feel the full force of the law number
seven every once in a while the
developers get to put their touch on the
fight against roster by including a
character that was never meant to be can
it answer meet mortal kombat slushee
fighters who is created as a skin for
various models while building Mortal
Kombat for what s/he arcade games let
through multiple revisions so didn't
meets included in the game making his
way as a full-on easter egg
with me taking hold of the fan base and
the debate ranging on whether he would
remain a joke character or not that the
realm of listening so by the time we
arrived at mortal kombat armageddon heat
was officially canon as Shang Tsung's
failed experiment to escape the flesh
pit now he's described as a fun
character who assists shinnok I don't
think I want to know what kind of fun
this guy's into because we're talking
about a guy who rips off his own head
and slides around in his own blood
how he gonna give it to me he's got to
keep the grotesque fun of world combat
very much alive number 6 now we love us
some street fighter in this office and
while it has its fair share of weird
characters none is more mysterious than
cute from Street Fighter 3 third strike
thing is nobody knows who this guy is or
even what he is his metal face and
mannerisms make us pretty sure he's a
robot but then again there's some skin
showing around the neckline is he a man
is he a machine we may never know what
we do know is that Q is some sort of
creep if the fact that he's chasing kids
across the stage is any sort of
indication
clusters is white gloves and that
flashers trench coat I don't know man it
could be innocent problem is he was most
definitely trying to touch you with this
super art called total destruction this
is a move where Q grab you and forces
you into a sex act that results in a
mighty explosion but like a real one
that leaves you dead
number 5 when your main is a big bellied
cactus in a taro you get looks most
players just don't understand the
importance of a Mingo in him being the
sole champion of a race of man plant but
that's probably because he's the most
obscure character in the long list of
weirdos found in Marvel vs. Capcom 2
condensing a lot for a game that
features little red riding-hood packing
heat a Mingo is weird not only because
of his character design but he's weird
because of his origin which is to say he
doesn't have one a Mingo comes from a
cancel project that no one really knows
much about repurpose specifically for
Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and there's really
nothing else Dilip probably also didn't
help that a Mingo is a bottom tier
character to boost
I guess the fighting game world is only
big enough for one
ray'll rocking cactus number four now
the world of fighting games is filled
with animal characters there are some
games where the inclusion of an animal
is just weird man pacing points
fighters destinies bovine brawler sushi
sea fighters destiny is a game meant to
bring the Virtua Fighter audience over
to the n64 and there was a critical
darling and fresh-faced if you could
survive fighters destinies rodeo record
attack mode for more than a minute
you unlock Russia the cow and it's
pretty much just the cow a cow that
stands upright and fights all the other
normal if not mildly racist Warrior II
minutiae Lucentis cow like where you
target is like a bowl but also torts
like Nicki Minaj and if you get too
close to this deadly dairy cow he will
unleash that ancient Chinese art of them
yep it's a frigging Chinese calf from
Hong Kong to pork number three this one
is forever burned into my retinas the
BDSM junkie Volvo is one of the
strangest fighters from the arcade era
of yesteryear he's a mainstay of the
soul franchise going as far back as the
Lynch and even back then this bandage
wrapped Wolverine wannabe was creepy
crawling his way through the roster I
don't know about you guys but there's
just something about watching the way he
moves that makes me feel like I need to
take a shower yeah I suppose it's not
all his fault though I mean the guy who
lives in a pit after all a pit that he
was sealed in causing him to go blind
and also insane so in the simplest of
terms all doors like if Edward
Scissorhands and Gollum had a baby who
then went out to join Cirque du Soleil
kinda like that Volvo's fighting style
is also so demented that they couldn't
even motion capture the character in the
first few installments they had to
animate this weirdo entirely by hand
fortunately both always led to one of
the greatest pieces of machinima you've
never heard of damn cold oh damn so is
that at least numbered too
Yoga a peaceful exercise where you
stretch out your body relax your mind
but as the Wii Fit trainer has shown us
it can also be used to send your
opponent straight to hell
great watching this peaceful exercise
beings to create such devastation
doesn't really look like she's fighting
at all rather the Wii Fit trainer just
aggressively poses near you
blasting opponents into the stratosphere
tree Cobra Sun Salutation Wii Fit
trainer is no poser
when it comes to weaponizing yoga even
the Wii Balance Board gets a few
fleeting moments of attention before
disappearing from our minds forever and
should you grab a Smash Ball Wii Fit
trainer will assume the warrior poses
one last time to blast everyone she
faces with a rainbow of positive energy
and every post he can muster namaste
it's number one in the race to find a
weirdest warrior among this list of
crazy creatures and absurd personas
nothing nothing was more surprising or
satisfying than Hornets up hearing in
fighters megamix a red and blue racer
from everyone's arcade favorite Daytona
USA somehow made the cut into Sega's
ultimate fighting game mashup this car
can punch kick and grind his way to
victory
using his for floating tires bit thing
is hilarious like simply watching this
antropomorphic car jump in Crouch that
alone is enough to get you laughing but
when you consider its comical size lack
of any real lens or the fully
destructible body panels Hornet is by
far the weirdest fighting game character
ever just to make it Weaver he wasn't
even actually a character before we
never loved Daytona USA because of its
characters we loved it because it was a
cool racing game in the arcade it's
probably the most legendary attract
theme of any cabinet
Oh
but thanks to fighters megamix we will
never forget the warrior car named
hornet the secret number 11 this time is
from one of them many mortal kombat
ripoffs called Kasumi ninja everybody's
weird in that game but none more so than
Angus McGregor it was Scotsman who lifts
up his kilt to shoot fireballs out of
his penis take a second to think about
how painful that would be if you enjoyed
