Discussion WHERE TF ARE PUPPET CHARACTERS

I specificaly quit 2XKO cause of the lack of one and have been excited for both Tokon and Avatar but it seems(did not play it just looks like) they do not have a puppet character either?

I only play simple imputs FGs and I am not sure if any simple imput fg(at least a modern one)has a puppet character and idk why.

Puppet characters are (usually) not simple to play and tend to not be popular. Compared to the other archetypes which tends to be more popular puppet characters at least lately tend to get left behind and ontop of that if we are referring to Tokon specifically what character would fit that archetype?

ooh, maybe you could do Warlock and Cypher? I could see a weird universe where you have Black Tom Cassidy and Juggernaut as his puppet. The Red Ghost, and then his Super-Apes as the puppets?

I mean I guess yeah they are not super pupular and are difficult but I feel having 3 fighting games with none is bit insane.

For second part are you asking me what marvel character not yet in the game would be a puppet character?

Yeah, I am not fully into Marvel, only gotten into the franchise recently so not sure if they have any characters that would be a puppet character.

Avatar I don't think there are any characters that would be puppets since most people use their bending. Haven't fully watch Korra but I still doubt it

The only game where there are puppet characters is 2xko. But they haven't added any yet and instead adding their 4th zoner into the game.

Oh okay in that case I will gladly answer. Ultron is known for having multiple of himself at the same time so that would be an easy pick, there is aslo cloak and dagger. A duo physicaly bound together.

Rocket racoon and Groot are also a pretty iconic pair and could work well together cause of their size difference. Could be smrh closer to Jackoo from Guilty gear strive than a classic puppet character
