This reminds me of the “Favourite fighting game characters” thread, but I can see how it would be different for some, as a main doesn’t necessarily need to be a favourite.

However, in my case, they usually are.

  • Street Fighter: Cammy and Cody.
  • Killer Instinct: Orchid (and most likely Tusk).
  • Mortal Kombat: Jade, Reiko and Tanya.
  • Injustice: Nightwing and Catwoman.
  • Guilty Gear: Millia, Venom and Testament (also taken a liking of Sin in GGXrd, and will most likely try and main Raven in Revelator).
  • Tekken: Nina, Lars and Kunimitsu (whenever she’s available).
  • Virtua Fighter: Sarah and Jacky.
  • Dead or Alive: Hayate and Kasumi (also Sarah and Jacky in DOA5).
  • Blazblue: Bang Shishigami.
  • King of Fighters: K’, Vice and Ash (Benimaru will most likely replace Ash in KOFXIV).
  • Soul Calibur: Taki, Ivy and Zwei.

I guess these are the more recent/relevant fighting games that I play. Not sure if I forgot any…

UMK3: Kabal - Backup: Jade
MK Trilogy: Baraka - Backup: Kabal

MK:A: Sareena - Backup: Baraka
MK9: Smoke - Backup: Baraka
MKX: Erron Black (Outlaw) - Backup: Kung Jin (Bojutsu)

*Put an asterisk on MK:DA because while I used Shang Tsung and Mavado the most, I also used Scorpion, Kenshi, Kung Lao and Drahmin a lot. Man… Such an underrated roster in that game.
