Street Fighter V: 15 Huge Roster Omissions That Must Return

5. Q

The neglect of Street Fighter III: Third Strike has gone on long enough Capcom. As a man-child who's been a fan of the series since being a real toddler, I love the iconic cast from Street Fighter II just as much as the next guy, but isn't it time we gave some love to some lesser-known faces? Why don't we start with a guy who's (real) face has never been seen? Third Strike has a whole host of characters that deserve to be given the chance to wow fans with a 3D update, and Q is undoubtedly high up on the waiting list of contenders. Sure, there's the likes of Alex, Oro and Urien that fans really want to see turn up for Street Fighter V, but Q trumps them all on the most-wanted list. Perhaps its the enigmatic metal mask that hides his real identity or the vocal mannerisms that make him sound like Darth Vader with emphysema; nobody can pinpoint exactly what it is that makes Q so memorable. Just as bizarre as his appearance, Q's fighting style is like a mix between drunken fist and wrestling manoeuvres. If that doesn't already sound unique, how about a special attack that sees him flash orange and explode as soon as he touches you. Interested? You should be, and so should Capcom. Please guys, make it happen!
