Sagat
Sagat has maintained a massive fanbase ever since appearing in the original Street Fighter, which isn’t a common occurrence.
This Muay Thai kickbox is also a former member of M. Bison’s evil organization Shadaloo, in which he served as a personal bodyguard for Street Fighter II’s main antagonist. Before this, Sagat received a devastating defeat from the hands of Ryu during the first tournament, where he gained a massive scar on his chest.
Being “The God of Muay Thai,” Sagat is mostly about throwing out long reaching kicks and brutal projectiles. Once you master his long reach, Sagat is a force to be reckoned with.
Guile
This Air Force veteran has been a staple of the series ever since being thrown into a crate by M. Bison himself on the cover of Street Fighter II.
Since making his first appearance in that title, Guile has been searching for the whereabouts of his best friend Charlie, giving players a reason to beat up any fighter standing in their way of Guile’s investigation.
It’s just not his storyline that players recognize, though, it’s that epic flattop Guile sports. With fancy flash kicks, sonic booms and a whole lot of hair gel, Guile has easily became one the many favorites in the Street Fighter series.
