#8 - Fantasy Draft Lineup: Street Fighter (Part 1)


Listen Later

Welcome to The Penny Men’s underground tournament of fists, fireballs, and fierce opinions! This week, the boys go toe-to-toe with Street Fighter, the legendary Capcom franchise that sparked an arcade revolution—and at least three cartoon adaptations nobody asked for!


In this roundhouse-kicking installment, Ben, Gregory, and Tom each draft their dream Street Fighter roster—eight fighters and one boss from any corner of the sprawling, spin-kicking franchise! From alpha prequels to 3D face-smashers, rival schools to final fights, even those weird EX games? They’re all fair game!


Expect:

  • Deep dives into arcade lore, from the pizza parlor machines of their childhood to PlayStation manuals advertising “the game of the movie of the game”!
  • A recap of Street Fighter’s wild history: multiple timelines, character redesigns, comic cameos, and more Ryu than your brain can handle!
  • A solemn tribute to Street Fighter 2010, the bizarre space-fighting NES game that turned Ken Masters into a grieving scientist with laser arms!

But that’s not all!


🥋 Featuring:

  • 24 roster picks
  • 3 artistically-rendered team lineups
  • 1 phantom jar of predictions
  • 0 appearances by Dan (probably)

Street Fighter fatigue? Never heard of it!

Too young to remember arcades? Doesn’t matter!

Think M. Bison is secretly a plagiarist? You’re not alone!

Choose your fighter—then hit play!

🎮👊💥
