6 Worst Reasons for Entering a Fighting Tournament

- Entering a fighting tournament is a big decision, since the other fighters will be able to shoot fireballs, shatter your bones like breadsticks or be literally the devil, so you’d better be doing it for a good reason. Unlike the fighters in this video. Subscribe for more like this, why not: www.tinyurl.com/SubToOxbox
Many of the participants in Street Fighter 4's tournament have good reasons for being there. Abel is an amnesiac, for instance, looking to defeat the surviving members of the evil organisation Shadoloo. Rufus wants to get one over on Ken and prove that he's the strongest fighter in America. And Mexican luchador El Fuerte wants some new recipes. Ok, that one is less good.
Let's say for the sake of argument that great fighters eat great food, and that the only way to get them to share those recipes is to pummel them unconscious. It turns out, none of that even matters, because El Fuerte is a terrible, terrible chef.
If only there were some other way of getting better at cooking or finding recipes, but sadly this is the only way. That El Fuerte could think of.

And here I thought the worst reason to enter a fighting tournament was because Dr. Karate killed my father again.
Winners don't lose!
i wouldn't say that

Law's situation only gets worse after Tekken 4. His dojo chain also goes under, he becomes a dishwasher, gets deported for working in Japan illegally, and his son causes a huge traffic accident and Marshall has to pay for it.
SolidSonicTH actually since you win a lot of money the traffic accident is a great reason to fight lol.
Seraph Sephiroth
Exactly. If his T4 story is bad, then his T5 story makes up for it (despite the fact T5's plot is a lot thinner than T4's in general).
Personally I thought Law's reasoning wasn't awful in the first place but certainly by 5 the stakes were high enough to justify entering the tournament.
SolidSonicTH Opening up failing businesses is a bad reason to join a dangerous tournament, maybe if he was creating new businesses it would make sense, but law has been a gag character for a while lol
Seraph Sephiroth Dude seriously needs to some reflecting. Or did he miss the introspection day of his Kung Fu lessons? Probably thought it was pointless.
😠Okay, this is fucking stupid.😟
Namco is now just brutally murdering The Character's Life!!
I dunno, I personally love Skullomania's "Fuck work, I'm gonna be a superhero!" attitude to life.
He’s the embodiment of the subreddit r/antiwork lol
Well in defense of Marshall Law, Sega had Segata Sanshiro beat the crap out of everyone not playing with a Sega Saturn and it actually help the sales a lot!
but that's because people didn't want to.... oh i don't know....blow up TWICE!!!! Just from a simple hip toss.
what the sega saturn was at risk of blowing up or something
No, that's one of Segata Sanshiro's abilities, he throws you away, you explode upon hitting the ground, then he turns around and walks away, and you explode again.
PLAY UNTIL YOUR FINGERS BREAK!!!
😠And They He Fucking Died.😆
Every fighting game has that one character that's there for no good reason. There's the "want to promote their business/school of martial arts/family" crowd. The "wants to impress the boy/girl of their dreams" crowd. The "thought it was a fun thing to do in between gigs, oblivious to the evil conspiracies" crowd. Etc.
Then there's Remy from Street Fighter III, who joins an international fighting tournament because he hates fighting, thinks people who fight are horrible, and wants to prove it by... er... fighting a bunch of martial artists who remind him of his deadbeat dad.
I'm sure it makes sense to him.
The first reason is actually a good one. There are plenty of people in real life who fight in order to promote their gym, dojo, family and fighting system. The Gracie "clan" is a prime example. *Edit:* But I know they don't fight in order to stop a cabal of megalomanics hell-bent on world domination/destruction, so you do have a point.
Beowulf wanted to come out of retirement and fight the Skullgirl, all because she was controlling his greatest opponent's dismembered arm. Which was his trophy.
The promoting business is not bad. It will give his/her school a good reputation.
If Remy ever returns his reason would probably be "my therapist told me to enter"
I once entered a fighting tournament with my friends to decide who got the last slice of pizza.
I would just take the pizza while everyone else was busy fighting for it.
Johnny Hellström Then you have no honour. You would be sacrificed to the Pizza Gods...it's not as fun as it sounds.
WhammyTime91 Worth it.
Totally irrelevant, this video is about bad reasons to enter fighting tournaments
What sort of pizza was it?
I love fighting games character back stories. Always either something ridiculous or evil.
mikail irwan Often both.
like ridiculously evil?
Harley365 Aww :(
Or both
well, not every time
A dinner where someone questions the quality of the food devolving into a semi-professional fighting tournament? Ahhh, sounds just like a family Christmas!
Or just any family dinner. OR dinner with my friends... dinners in general for me actually, even when I'm eating alone. And let me tell you, it's harder than it sounds to have a successful semi-professional fighting tournament with just yourself. ;)
XD
Can't forget Dee Jay from Street Fighter, who's using the tournament to get people to listen to his album...like if Meek Mill entered UFC
Cable11191 meek mill would have to make music first
CactusHeart79 he actually does make rap songs. They suck
taylorgordon93 nah he has several albums too. They suck
taylorgordon93 no solo albums
Villager: Literally gets a letter in the mail and ABANDONS THE TOWN HE RUNS AS MAYOR TO GO KICK MARIO'S ASS. We never find out what's in the letter, either.
Tom Nook's death threat
Inhaled Corn likely an invite
The letter probably said something that had to do how much of a wuss Animal Crossing and it’s characters are so Villager went to prove a point.
Prank gone too far lol
Great plan, Johnny! Prove you don't rely on special effects by fighting a bunch of unbelievable people and creatures who do impossible things! Everyone's bound to believe you then!
Amaranth
If he wins then he also has the corpses of his enemies as evidence. If he loses then no one on Earth will be able to bother him.
It is a win win situation.
OriginalPiMan He just has to bring them back from Outworld. I wonder what the carry-on policy is for those portals?
Only one deceased per Earthrealmer. Outworld mages bring undead armies for free.
And the crazy part is, his stupidity eventually caused him to become a hero with a gorgeous wife and a loving daughter. Some people have all the luck...
The weird thing is MK9 reveals he's actually skeptical all of THAT stuff is real (he compliments Baraka on his makeup and costuming but otherwise thinks the blades and teeth are just props) but he himself can throw green energy bolts and doesn't seem to think THAT'S unusual (since he wants to prove his ability to do so isn't just movie magic).
His story is strange (especially since he's some kind of descendant of an artificial race of meta-humans from the Mediterranean that were created as protectorates for Earth, hence his energy abilities).
Stone Cold goes undercover in Al-Queda... I'd watch that.
"Allahu Ackbar, you sum****!"
The only way that could get more awesome is if he fought Zombie Bin Laden and Stone Cold Stunnered his head off
thunderstudent Zombie Bin Laden and Frankensein (Frankenstein Saddam Hussein). HELL IN A (sleeper) CELL.
Amaranth LOL, I'd pay to see that.
You would *have* to pay for that, as that sounds like one of those exclusive Pay-Per-View matches that cost like $30 to watch.
There was a character in Samurai Showdown named Ukyo (thank you internet search engines for the name) who was fighting all over the world in search of the ultimate bouquet of flowers for his girlfriend. If you screwed up so bad that you have to risk decapitation to find the flowers to smooth things over with your lady friend then maybe it's time to just start seeing other people.
Have you seen what they charge at a florists??
Isn't Dudley in street fighter also just trying to add exotic flowers to his rose garden or something?
Ukyo is dying with tuberculosis and his beloved girls falls in love with other guy... sounds a good reason now? Not for me.
I tried making a Venn Diagram for this, with 'these reasons' in one circle and 'sanity' in the other. Not only could I not get them to overlap, they actually refused to be on the same side of the piece of paper.
The car from street fighter
Don't let this distract you from the fact that Goku has endangered multiple universes to "fight strong guys"
I think Vegeta fits that bill more than Goku. But I get your point Goku tend to go overboard.
Zeno was already going to destroy the universe
One of the worst developed characters in all of anime
Haha! Exactly. "Let's not fuse together, Vegeta. Let's risk all of existence to fight the guy that killed both my sons, my wife, best friends and all living things on Earth."
@@owenkorando9595 Zeno's motives are different. He's an emperor God, for him all others are his subjects. Nothing more and nothing less.
Marshal Law needs Gordon Ramsay to give him the what for on Kitchen Nightmares. Now THAT is a fight I'd enjoy watching
Legend has it that Gordon Ramsay can use a butcher knife like a samurai uses a sword. So it would be a pretty good fight.
Sonya Oliaji Oh, yes I love Gordon Ramsay, Especially Hell's Kitchen
Sonya Oliaji Or send Robert Irvine and make a Restaurant Impossible episode on Marshalls restaurant
Sonya Oliaji Or ask Sanji from one piece to show him how it's done, in both cooking and martial arts.
Oh No!😆
Jeffery McWild from Virtua Fighter enters tournaments to catch a shark.
To be fair, he enters the tournaments to win money to buy a boat he plans to use to catch said shark. The way you said it makes it seem like he's hoping to run into the shark in the tournament fights so he can headbutt it into submission.
+bzcharkl lol Seeing that happen in a fighting game honestly wouldn't surprise me.
Seriously. Dan Hibiki had a better motive to enter the street fighter tournament and he is one of the worst fighters in the game!
Rock Marcus See, I don't know if I'd enter a fighting tournament to avenge my father's death, I'd probably just shoot Sagat in the back of the head or something lol
then you'd go to prison, as you see in streetfighter you cant get arrested for beating the crap out of someone, as long as its in a tournament
Iron M That's why Dan had better motivation to enter the Street Fighter Tournament to begin with! His vengeance would be legal
Rock Marcus i was talking 2 man from nantucket cause he said just shoot Sagat
Iron M No, I'm agreeing with you and reinforcing your poi t
Not going to lie I had repressed Street Fighter The Video Game The Movie The Video Game memories from my mind so when I saw Blade I thought it was legitimately Wesley Snipes' Blade still probably would have made more sense.
he's actually in a fighting game isnt he?
TheDark4light I don't know, I don't remember him in MvC and I can't think of him appearing in anything else, unless of course you are referring to Wesley Snipes who 's appearance in Demolition Man was pretty much copied for Raven from Tekken.
Well, there's "Brade" in Broforce, but that's not a fighting game...
I may be thinking of someone else but I could have sworn he was one of those secret special characters. Like Kratos in Mortal Kombat or Darth Vader in Soul Calibur.
Your comment was harder to understand
So I've come to the conclusion that all angry chefs are dangerous fighters who could kill me. This obviously means that in Tekken 7 Gordon Ramsey is going to be a special guest character who fights Marshall Law to improve his cooking prowess.
Ha!!
Can't wait for Gordon's winning one liner.
+saifis "You call that fighting?! I've made culinary diasters better than your fighting skills! Go back to the kitchen!"
This... Meat... Is... RAAAW! *knocks out opponent*
* gets roundhoused *
I'VE CUT CARROTS THAT HAD MORE OF A KICK THAN YOU
Dudley. Gil took his car keys.
🤣
Law had a restaurant chain? I thought he was just a very committed Bruce Lee impersonator.
That was Forest Law, Marshall's son.
At least in the film Johnny's Mentor/Shang Tsung convieniently left out the "to the death" part and made sound like a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get a massive amount of publicity and street cred.
Marshall Law's signature drink is WATAAAHH!!
That's Liu Kang fave too... seems a lot of Jet Kun Do fighters like WATAAAAH!
Sssssshhhutaaaaap!
Or Bruce Lee clones. I think Fei Long doesn't, though.
That’s clearly Fei-long’s favorite. Law just stole it from him. Lol
SHUT UP HE IS MY FAVORITE
My little brother, who thought he could beat me....
Best $5 dollars ever.
you're a jerk
As long as he agreed to it...
reza choudhury that doesn't make it any better.
Iron M why not?
MegaDale42 cause hes taking advantage of his brother
To be fair, in Johnny's case he entered the tournament because he has a gigantic ego. We are talking about Steven Seagal levels of vanity.
So some of the fighters sucked at there job but are really good at beating the shit out of people. well okay I'll accept that.
But rather than use their winnings to cut their losses and change their careers _to_ beating the tar out of people, all they seem to think of doing is going _back_ to the jobs they suck at.
perhaps did they like those jobs and just want to keep doing what they love
Very similar to real life celebrites
I've got someone you missed! You skipped Lionface who joined for the sole purpose to amuse Andy and Mike with his lion based moves and magical disappearing hair!
I can't wait for Stone Cold Steve Austin to give the entirety of Al-Qaeda the stunner
too bad he cant Stun Osama Bin Laden anymore. that would've been so fucking funny. yeah he delivers the Stone Cold Stunner to Bin Laden right before he gets shot to death by Seal Team Six. Stone Cold then cracks open a cold one after he gets to tha chopper.
Zack! Fom Dead or Alive. He's a DJ who learns Muay Thai boxing by himself and enters the tournament for money and fame. He then won, bought an entire island, and invited only the female participants to play beach volleyball...Ok, you win, Zack.
Honestly, that sounds like a great reason.
What about Lee Chaolan? He may have had a few reasons to enter the tournament, but I doubt anyone would agree that his goal of putting Heihachi in a banana hammock was a good one.
Everyone in Super Smash Bros.? Sometimes they are best friends and just fight each other as if there was no tomorrow. And there isn't even a prize. Just... for fighting a giant hand.
Smash Bros is basically kids playing with toys though so there doesn't need to be a reason.
Twisted Toon Taylor Tell that to Samus, who is shooting rockets at kids. Or to Wario, who munches on the other characters
Grooorg Laserdeth You missed my point. Samus and Wario are toys. The fighters are toys being puppeted by the children.
Twisted Toon Taylor Ah right, damn, forgot about the backstory.
It's kind of a shame the newer Smash Bros moved away from the whole toy theme. I thought that was one of the most charming aspects of the original N64 game. The opening cutscene is literally toys being taken out of a toybox.
This is definitely getting a Commenter Edition...
I'd enter the Street Fighter tournament on the off chance I get butt crushed by R Mika
You. I like you.
That’s a pretty good reason
That's agreeable
lmao
You might get pile drives by zangief
T.J. Combo in Killer Instinct: Keep his career alive through a cheating scandal.
Roger Jr. in Tekken 5: Find his missing father (who is not in the tournament, BTW).
Tony Umeda in Bushido Blade 2: Get into the pants of a Shainto assassin he saw at the fish mart.
Prince Doza in Ehrgeiz: Boredom.
Sarah Bryant in Virtua Fighter 4: Help herself figure out if she really does want to kill her brother or not.
Jeffrey McWild in Virtua Fighter continuity: Raise enough money to buy a boat so he can go all Captain Ahab and hunt down a "Devil Shark".
Fallout in Blood Storm: No reason. Like. . . Literally no reason whatsoever. You play as him and win, he disappears right back into the radioactive zone from whence he came without a word.
At least Roger was probably just following a lead from when ol' Daddy vanished, and I'm pretty sure Boredom is a valid answer, at least you are probably aware of the risks and whatnot
i keep waiting for skullomania to suddenly start saying what you gonna do brother
Surpringly enough, Ibuki joins the Street Fighter IV tournament to find "cool boys".
Yup, screw Tinder or whatever dating site or service availabe, Fighting Tournaments are the best place to find a boyfriend!
the logic she had there would be equally valid as a member of the audience even...
MQF II apparently she’s a little hot between the legs
How is that girl again?🤨
@@setsers1 Well, she's a ninja. Ibuki is a ninja girl who's trying to enter the Street Fighter tournament to find a boyfriend. One of the absolute stupidest and worst reasons for anything really, including entering a fighting tournament. She's also a high schooler. It's awful. It'd be like me, entering a fighting tournament to find a girlfriend. One of the most laughably stupid reasons for ANYTHING. And, in her ending, she doesn't even find said boyfriend, just beats up the main villain Seth, and does some stupid awkward stereotypical teen, disney channel sitcom romance movie bullshit, but she's a ninja. So, if you're into sorta cute ninja girls, Ibuki's probably the one for you!
@@shawnfields2369
Hey remember when Ibuki would lowkey diss you for losing to her in 3rd strike?
Yeah me neither she's just a giddy high school girl who wants to find herself a cute boy.
The philosophy of fighting game developer, chuck every character you can think of at the wall and see what stick. Reasons = unimportant!
Ogre thinks your disdain of his power is amusing. He will allow you to live until you give up hope that anyone will be able to defeat his amazing powers.
maybe he confused the king of iron fist tournament with iron chef?
which you may say is a cooking show, wouldn't they know the difference? but given how crazy Asian competition shows are, maybe he really didn't know better.
Stone Cold Steve Austin infiltrating Al Qaeda?
"If you wanna see me open a can of whoop-ass on these infidels, give me a Jahannam Yeah!"
... I would watch that
MegaDale42 who wouldn't
MegaDale42 I support.
everyone get the petitions out
man.... that would top the daytime TV charts, i bet!
did you look up what hell is to muslums just to make that comment?
i feel some of the fighters from dead or alive should be on here
jay lawless Aren't most of them "ninjas" (holding back snickering)
Cody Hines Far as I’m aware, no, only two of them claim that title (Ryuu from Ninja Gaideb guest starring and... Ayana I think). The rest are just variable martial artists, I think an actress or just a rich girl with a bad attitude, and so on.
Lei fang is a possibe candidate
Brigitte from Guilty Gear. Wants to prove he's a man by being a bounty hunter. It would be much simpler to just change his outfit.
And his name.
omg that last one. I want a character similar to that in every fighting game
Everyone in smash bros.
All of them.
What do they gain?
Nothing. No reason to fight.
They're toys being played with by a little kid. There doesn't need to be logic with something like that.
Danemr Reschke but why is he doing it
he should be playing video games
like super smash bros
*PLAYS SMASH BROS WHILE PLAYING SMASHBROS.*
RonaldMcJuicy Hmm... maybe his nintendo 64 was broken that day?
Danemr Reschke Oh :(
I feel bad for the kid then
Well, Captain Falcon gained relevance since his series has been dead . . .
Marth helped his series come to Western audiences . . .
And Pit brought back his series from the 80s!
But they’re all just toys being played by someone or some people. So there’s no other motive than to have fun! Perhaps you forgot that part? Lol
Keep up the good work oxbox
So everyone who takes on fighting sucks at their jobs...apparently
Be honest, would you enter a tournament where it is apparently perfectly legal for some dude to ripp out your spinal collum - beacuse reasons I guess - , if you had ANY viable alternative?
Ian Harding if they were good at their jobs they wouldn't resort to fighting. The only people who think winning a fight makes them right are idiots.
IIRC uwe boll challenged people to a fight to prove his movies aren't horrible pieces of garbage.
Or get sued and sent to jail.
***** Depends how rich you are. Only a small percent can take advantage of that.
Ian Harding No, not really. There are plenty of fighters who are great at their day jobs. For example: Johnny Cage is an award winning movie star, he even went on to make movies of the Mortal Kombat tournaments, which were huge hits. Chun-Li is one of Interpol's top agents. Ken Masters is a successful businessman.
Real talk, Skullomania is the best thing I've ever heard.
The Mishima's have the silliest reason of all to join a fighting tournament - petty family squabbles. Millions of dollars to gather the best fighters just so Heihachi can prove he can beat up his dad and his kids? Why can't they just get drunk at the next family gathering and brawl it out like the rest of us?
Well in Tekken 6 it was justifiable with the whole monster thing.
Anyway, they're rich and they have super natural powers and more offsprings then the Kardashians, why wouldn't they use billions.
Yeah the main plot of Tekken never made any sense until Tekken 5 finally happened and tried explaining the backstory of the first Tekken. Funny how now they try to explain all that mess!
@@our_illumination949 No. Pay attention to the games.
In the first game kaguya wanted to publicly humaialte Heihachi(because he threw him off a cliff) and have his enterprise(only do-able through tge tournament.
That's a solid backstory for the first and second game.
@@User-es3em You mean Kazuya?
Fun fact: Kazumi was first mentioned in Tekken 2. Didn't become an actual character until 7 though.
Wouldn't call a private match public humiliation.
MAN OH MAN! Sans! You have been practicing those moves? Papyrus is gonna like this
This was a lot of fun. Great upload.
I love the commentary on these videos.
I don't know how I feel about you calling Street Fighter: The Movie a bad movie. I mean, objectively it was a terrible movie. But it was also super awesome.
They had an invisible speedboat. Zangief was hilarious and no one will ever top Raul Julia as M. "For me it was Tuesday" Bison. One hell of a ham and cheese sandwich.
"That explains why he fights like someone who just walked into an unexpected spider web" lol
I just subscribed based on the commentary alone...This is some very witty content... thank you
All great choices, except for the Mortal Kombat one. When you have the mystical power to throw green energy balls from your hands, even a behind-the-scenes documentary isn't going to convince the general public that you are a legit martial artist. They are still going to think it's all special effects. That's why Johnny Cage entered the tournament, to prove that his abilities are real against the best fighters in the world, in a legitimate fighting tournament.
He didn't know that there were would be supernatural opponents in the tournament.
Or the location of the tournament...
I don't think beaten powerful nobodies in tournament most people don't know about would prove his moves aren't fake.
Actually Outside Xbox, Marshall Law's Restaurant chain was successful. The reason it went downhill was because of a rival chain that was quickly getting more popular and basically drove him out of business. Hardly a terrible idea when you actually look at it that way and far from being a terrible cook (Way better then El Fuerte, who would not get far in "Iron Chef" or one round of "Chopped" with skills that bad).
If anything, opening a amusement park is by far a more questionable reason considering its not exactly guaranteed you'll even have a permit or planning permission to build one.
I think the fact that he snaps at someone saying his food sucks shows he's a bad cook who can't take some criticism, even if it was unconstructive
Those were punks who didn't really seem to be connoisseurs. I, too, react differently to polite complaints and vulgar rants.
You should never enter fights because its wrong....and medical bills
insurance
Canada
Also in a very less efecttive way...Argentina (wich is Canada but going it wrong)
So what about the fighters who go in the UFC?
well there awesome Garcia.....that's my reason :)
Been watching you guys for years now but i just got myself an xbox one! finally i cant justify watching your videos to people
Wow... I loved Saturday Night Slam Masters and just found out the story behind Gunloc being Guile's brother. Mind Blown.
How about the guy who entered a fighting tournament to get back the head of his village's Buddha?
...no, wait, that's the plot of Onk-Bak
OD Smith Hey, that movie was awesome. And in his defense, most of the fights were because his drunk guide strung him along to pay back his debts.
No denying the film is awesome, but there's no way to make the plot about the villain stealing Buddha heads sound the wrong side of bonkers.
The one with the kidnapped elephant was better.
What about that guy from Tekken Tag? The one with the spiked hair and built a dojo in a space colony just to fight aliens?
Paul Phoenix? He's been in the series from the very beginning.
And yet it is still fun to watch him epic fail. In one of his story mode endings he wants to fight aliens and they show up. The only thing you could say is "You got your aliens. Now what tough guy?" XD
Tania Bams - Too true, man. XD
That's Paul Phoenix. He wants to be the toughest in the universe, hence the desire to fight aliens xD He probably wants to fight aliens because he felt cheated back in Tekken 3. Paul beat Ogre in Tekken 3 and left in the belief that he had won, but Ogre transformed into True Ogre and Jin Kazama had to clean up after him by killing True Ogre.
Dope video. I didn't realize at the time that law beat up his costumers
I didn't know about that last character. 😆
I bet it was fun designing him for the character artists! That walking animation, lol
Commenter edition suggestion:
Accidentaly sleepwalking into Yomi, Kanji Tatsumi, Persona 4 Arena.
Falling asleep on a train: Junpei Iori, Persona 4 Arena The Ultimax
gotta love el feurte man. and ibuki from street fighter definitely should of been on here. I mean come on, she entered just so she could meet a few cute boys? really?!?!
This was a great video can you do an updated version of fighting games now
LOL!!! Dorkly did a video about johnny cage fighting Raiden. I'm so glad you mentioned that. :D
What about Hakan from SSFIV, he was already a terrible character but his motivation make him even worse, he enters the World Warrior tournament just so he can fins ingredients to make oil,
Really?
danick00 Plus to find husbands for his literally dozens of daughters.
Hakan only has 8 daughters though... And it's not just to find new oils, it's to promote his brand.
M-rated characters like Kratos and Needles Kane once fought each other over spilt ice cream
Great video. Funny how many people fight for the purpose of good food.
Brad Wong from Dead or Alive was looking for the ultimate wine or something called "Genra." Which was coincidentally the same name as that specific Dead or Alive's antagonist.
Little Mac: Tired of people calling him short
ninja ice too bad he can't jump either
Concerning Martial Law.... to be fair in the first Tekken game he entered because Baek came and wrecked havoc on his dojo and injured his students.
Then his son Forest Law was in a coma from an accident and he needed the money for medical bills.
The restaurant was actually just secondary reasons....
I love this list! XD
In SFIV Dudley has a worse motive than El Fuerte, he just want new roses to his collection and forgot about his father missing car
Beowulf from Skullgirls is a washed - out fighter, trying to use the sudden appearance of a psychic monster to prove how tough he is. He never has any idea what is going on, and has to be saved by the star of a children's tv show.
At least he was originally a fighter, sure he might be way outa his league, but he knew how to fight, and figured he could make some fame on the job...... didn't turn out so well for him
Actually, it was to keep the Skullgirl from taking his only memento of one of his colleagues - which happens to be that guy's severed arm.
Marshall and El Fuerte obviously didn't go to Tōtsuki Culinary Academy
Eh, Azami is shitting all over it.
In Johnny Cage's defense, he saved the world.
outsidexbox You should do many more of these, hell, Twisted Metal could be a list all on its own (looking at you Hammerhead).
Norimaru, regional?
I don't think MARVEL SUPER HEROES VS STREET FIGHTER is a fighting tournament.
That is a good point. It's more like a video game version of Infinity War.
WHY ARE THERE SO MANY COOKS!?!
Rachel Swank 🎶Too many cooks!🎶
This was a good list.
Johnny Cages reason makes sense for his character. He thought people in the MK tournament were wearing make up and costumes. In Hollywood, big stunts an actor does are assumed to be special effects, it's a good reason
It would be if that was backed up by anything else on the island, and if doing a public performance wasn't an option.
The worst reason for entering a fighting tournament has got to be to destroy the crime syndicate that's running it by challenging the leader into a match. Really, that's not how you do that.
You could have fooled several actucal historical figures.
you underestimate how amazing food can taste, nothing better than chocolate pizza kebab drowned in maple syrup
pretty much they only fight in super smash brothers for the hell of it so pretty much every character in that game
I am pretty sure R.O.B. fights to prove he is a better fighter than a controller
that sounds disgusting.... yet strangely enticing.
GodzThirdLeg
sorry i did not know that i was more talking about 64 and melee but i know melee had a bit of a story i just dont remember it too well
Martin Šriber
i am creative i guess, well i did come up with it at 2 am so maybe that has something to do with it
TheDark4light
its something everyone has to try never
Yay early list!
The Howard Dean scream at 3:13 has me in tears
That's how Johnny C do!!! That's how Johnny C do!!!
Mokap
I was expecting him to be number one, to be honest
The83rdTrombonist In defense. Technically Mokap was confused and he was from an alternate dimension. But yeah its pretty stupid.
To be fair Mokap didn't want to be there. He was unwillingly transported to Outworld while doing Motion Capture for one of Jonny's movies
Isn't Mokap some unfortunate bystander caught in an interdimensional war who just happened to be also a martial artist. No different from Stryker's in essence.
There's a difference between being a fan and having a death wish
Honorable mention to tao kaka who initially has a plan but eventually eats dumplings and takes a nap in a sunbeam.
I join a fighting tournament because to prove I'm good at games
I'd like to see a video about "awesomely useful items given to you at the most useless time" like
a sniper rifle made available right before entering a sewer. The most powerful sword you've ever seen with a level restriction 15 levels higher than you. after grinding through a massive boss fight, you find a weapon 4 seconds later that would have made the fight a breeze.
Great video, but Stone Cold Steve Austin infiltrating Al Queda is a fairly decent amazingly brilliant idea.
Most fighting characters go to tournaments for ridiculous reasons. I like this list still, good job sir
You think that's bad? Ibuki's motivation in Street Fighter IV was to fight just to literally just to chase guys,hell Yun's no better in the same damn game Yun just joined just because he has a crush on Chun-Li which drags in Yang in to try and keep Yun out of trouble...how much weed has Capcom been smoking?
All of it.
Andre Gon But how much is all of it?
Kaitos Konami amounts of weed
A2Zanarchy There's over nine thousand kinds of Konami kind of weed!
Kaitos ten thousand if you count developmental strains.
Too bad it's specifically a list for videogames because my favorite "dumb reason for entering a fighting tournament" is from the original Dragon Ball. In a world with seemingly endless gadgets and resources, a guy enters a fighting tournament for the money to buy water for his village, which is facing a horrible drought. Why is this dumb? BECAUSE THERE'S TONS OF CLEAN WATER WHERE THE TOURNAMENT IS BEING HELD AND ALL HE ENDS UP HAVING TO DO IS GRAB A FEW CAPSULES, FIT SOME WATER TANKS IN THEM, AND LEAVE.
Looool @7:46 "HYPER STRONG MIRACLE TREASURE " 😂😂😂
Skullomania is based on Skullman, the Proto Kamen Rider #1. He even had Kamen Rider#1's henshin belt.
