10 Creepy Fighting Game Characters That ANNIHILATED You

6. Shin Akuma - Street Fighter

Right before legendary warrior Akuma becomes Shin Akuma through almost entirely fusing with a dark power he says “I am power made flesh! Feel how weak you truly are!" And trust me, you’re going to.

With the Satsui no Hado energy coursing through his veins, Akuma is even more deadly than usual. In any form Akuma looks really freaky, but this particular form depicts him with a maniacal grin, bright white hair, and a darker red undertone to his skin.

Don’t let the flip-flops fool you, Akuma has enough teleports, double Zanku Hadokuns, and low-recovery special moves that take priority to more than ensure your plan for a chill afternoon playing Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo goes in the toilet. Shin Akuma is faster than usual, very difficult to evade, and perfectly capable of reading your inputs and exploiting any gaps in your attack-style.

It’s worth remembering that he’s actually a secret boss rewarded to you for doing well, so, good job?

The designers programmed him to mimic an expert player and I’m pretty sure few who have gone up against him would disagree with that assessment.
