Version history
8/4 - Includes FP, FK and projectiles. It's more of a novelty FAQ. Shows
the damage done by each move in relation to a regular character's fierce
punch/kick.
8/5 - Added a few special moves and modified some comments.
8/5 - Edited the wording a little. Added some notes and comments.
8/23 – Changed defence to Defense and added Evil/Orochi Iori's stats.
8/29 – Changed defense to Life. Added Evil Ryu's stats. Added to the
Notes.
Notes:
1. First Attack usually gives you a 1-2 level damage boost. For
example, if the character does 100 (11.76%) damage normally, it'll boost
up to 113 for a First Attack strike!
2. Most characters have about the same defence. The only real exception
is Zangief who can take 35% more damage making him very durable.
3. I am not the greatest player at this game, so the comments reflect an
AVERAGE gamer's opinions.
5. Some of the move names may be wrong. I did a little research into the
manual and some older games.
6. Not all of the moves are here yet. I haven't got time. I'll add them
and Supers at a later date.
7. Geese's Double Reppu Ken, and Evil Ryu and Iori's projectiles will
absorb a projectile and continue going.
8. The damage estimates are approximate. I try to be as exact as
possible.
Kyo
Kyo is an ok fighter. However, without a projectile, you'll have to rely
on a lot of close in fighting. His main strength is quickness and
combos.

FK - 100
Flaming Rush - 100
Shiki Nue Tumi - 74
Fireball (2 hit) - 100
R.E.D Kick - 142
7-5 Bouncer - 63
Terry
Terry is awesome!!! His moves are easy to do and his combos do a lot of
damage. A good character to start off with. I hate the ponytail though.
Life - 850
FP - 100
FK - 100
Power Wave - 100
Raising Tackle (7-hit) - 121
Power Dunk - 150
Crack Shoot (3-hit) - 105
Iori
I don't like Iori. Most of his good moves require you to be in close and
Iori is very vulnerable when not in extremely close. However, if you
have good timing and can hit those in close moves, Iori isn't bad.
Life - 850
FP - 74
FK - 100
Dark Thrust - 100
Fireball (3-hit) - 142
Dark Crescent Slice - 142
Sou Kuishi - 142
Deadly Flower - 38
Ryo
I personally suck with Ryo. His moves are really hard to pull off for
beginners. And his special moves don't do enough damage to be worth the
extra effort.
Life - 890
FP - 100
FK - 113
Tiger Flame - 74
Koho - 63
Lightning Legs - 142
Mai
Mai is very quick. And her moves are damaging if you combo them. Most of
her moves have long range. But to be good with her, you'll have to play
a little first.
Life - 850
FP - 74
FK - 63
Kacho-Sen - 113
Ryu En Bu 1 hit - 74
2 hit - 121
Night Plover - 121
Haohmaru
A great beginner's character. His Fierce is crazily strong!!! Use him
for Time Attack! Other than that, if you are starved for moves, though,
look elsewhere.
Life - 850
FP - 243
FK - 100
Cyclone Slash - 100
Crescent Moon (3-hit) - 150
Yuri
She has a lot of Fireball type moves. Other than that though, she is
very average. Her Sai-ha move provides a temporary shield, which is
rather useful.
Life - 850
FP - 74
FK - 100
Tiger Flame - 74
Tiger Flame in Air - 100
Sai-Ha - 100
Hundred Blow Slap - 142
Nakoruru
Has a larger variety of moves than Haohmaru (from Samurai Showdown).
Very quick and devastating at any distance. If you are in a jam, just
call on her bird (Mamahaha, QCB+K i think), and she'll have some new
moves from that position.
Life - 850
FP - 142
FK - 074
Mamahaha Call - 038
Lela Mutsubu - 100
Kamui Mutsube (from Mamahaha Grab) - 121
Kamui Risse (3-hit) - 121
Akari
I have to admit, I don't play with Akari much, so I have no idea if she
is good or not. Her moves look rather cool though.
Life - 850
FP - 100
FK - 100
Fire Blast - 113
WP Version of Fire Blast - 100
Astro-Revolve - 38
Athena
Her teleporting around is pretty good and her psycho ball is damaging.
She is a good counter character. Pyscho Sword is rather damaging and is
a good #2 move in a combo.
Life - 850
FP - 074
FK - 100
Psycho Ball - 113
Psycho Sword (7-hit) - 189
Psycho reflect - 113
Geese
This guy is awesome! He has a counter for everything! But when the AI is
Geese, watch out, he is near impossible. He Forward+Punch move is useful
also.
Life - 890
FP - 100
FK - 113
Double/Single Reppu Ken - 100
Jai Ken - 150
Leona
Her Earring Bombing thing is really cool, but other than that, her moves
aren't so great. She is kinda vampire-like to me.
Life - 850
FP - 100
FK - 100
Boomerang - 38
Earring –142
Ken
My favorite character! He is quick, his moves are easy to pull off and
so are his supers. However, I think Capcom put too many of these type of
fighters into this game (4, Ken, Ryu, Akuma and Evil Ryu).
Life - 850
FP - 63
FK - 100
Hadoken - 100
Shoru-ken (3-hit fire) - 142
Spinning Kick (5-hit) - 142
Ryu
Like Ken, but slower, and more powerful. His Super Fireball knocks down
the opponent.
Life - 850
FP - 100
FK - 100
Hadoken - 100
Shoryu Fireball - 113
Shoru-ken - 100
Spinning Kick (3-hit) - 142
Morrigan
Very versatile. Has a nice variety of super combos. Not many moves, but
they have their place in the game.
Life - 850
FP - 100
FK - 100
Soul Fist - 74
Shadow Blade - 100
Chun-Li
Chun-Li is pretty worthless. If you like to press kick a lot, then go
for it, otherwise stay away.
Life - 850
FP - 100
FK - 100
Kiko-ken - 100
Tensho-kyaku - 121
Sen-en shu - 113
Zangief
He is a good in close fighter, and has a variety of grab moves. And he
is extremely durable, he can take 135% of the damage of a normal
character!
Life - 1148
FP - 100
FK - 113
Spinning Lariat (2-hit) - 142
1-hit - 38
Banishing Hand - 100
Felicia
Extremely quick, and her kitty rolls and ball attacks are very useful.
Too bad she has no projectile.
Life - 850
FP - 38
2 hit FP - 100
FK - 63
2 hit FK - 113
Rolling Buckler and Punch Follow - 142
Delta Kick (2-hit) - 100
Cat Spike - 142
Sakura
A female version of Ken. I like how a lot of her moves are multi hit
(like shooh-ken being 6-hits instead of shoryu-ken's 3)
Life - 850
FP - 74
FK - 100
Haduken - 74
Shooh-ken (6-hit) - 121
Shunpu-kyaku (3-hit) - 95
Akuma
Basically the same as Ryu, except for Air fireball and a spinning trip
move and teleporting. He looks cooler too.
Life - 850
FP - 100
FK - 100
Hadoken - 100
Flaming Hadoken - 113
Spinning Kick - 142
Shoru-ken (3-hit) - 113
Dan
Dan was bad in the other street fighters and he still sucks now. His
Gado-ken goes an inch and he is slow. I don't even know why he is in
this game. Come on Capcom and SNK put in Megaman!!! :)
Life - 890
FP - 100
FK - 100
Gado-ken - 100
Koryu-ken - 100
Danku-kyaku - 130
B.B. Hood
Not a great character, but very entertaining to play with! A Little Red
riding hood with an arsenal.
Life - 850
4 hit FP - 100
1 hit FP - 28
7 hit FP - 170
FK - 100
Happy Missile - 113
Shy Strike - 121 (can charge up to double damge by holding P)
Guile
Guile has 2 moves, Sonic Boom and Flash Kick. Good thing, they are both
very useful. Still, he is very pokey and his lack of moves can frustrate
you, or you'll be using 1 the whole time, which is kinda cheap.
Life - 850
FP - 100
FK - 100
Sonic Boom - 100
M. Bison
Its tough to pull off all the Charge Forward, Back stuff on a NGPC
joystick. Therefore, I think Bison isn't that great. But if you can use
him correctly, he is powerful.
Life - 850
FP - 100
FK - 113
2 hit FK - 142
Pyscho Blast - 121
Head Press - 142 can follow with P - +142
Knee Press - 150
Evil/Orochi Iori
He isn't that different from regular Iori. His Defense is extremely low
however. And he isn't that powerful with regular attacks. His specials
get a little premium in power, but not enough to make up for his lack of
Defense. Use regular Iori instead.
Defense – 700

FK - 100
Dark Thrust - 74
Fireball (3-hit) - 170
Dark Crescent Slice - 150
Sou Kuishi - 150
Deadly Flower – 38
Evil Ryu
He is a buffed up Ryu. If you like the fact that he does more damage and
his fireballs can absorb projectiles and fire back, you should pick him
despite the fact that he has less life.
Life – 700
FP – 74
FK – 113
Hadoken – ~121

Shoryu-Ken Uppercut - 142
