She can excel without relying too heavily on charge-based attacks, but when she's able to get in close and use her charge attacks in conjunction with some pretty great normal attacks, things can get pretty nasty pretty fast." Honda in that she's a charge-based character who can still be played very offensively. "Decapre is not like Cammy at all she's actually more like E. That was last year, and since then he has been hard at work helping mold Decapre into a balanced fighter. When Rosas first laid eyes on Decapre, she was nothing more than an Excel spreadsheet filled with frame data-the numerical values that represent her attacks. "She's very trick-heavy, with lots of left and right mix-ups to keep up her offense," added senior online and community specialist Peter Rosas. Therefore, a lot of elements unique to her character, such as new special moves and charges, have been implemented." Although she is Cammy's clone in the setting, we wanted to create a distinctive character in terms of her fighting style. "As for Decapre, she's never appeared in a game as a playable character. "Rolento, Poison, Hugo, and Elena have all appeared in Street Fighter X Tekken, so we made sure to stay true to their original design," Ayano continued. We believe that Decapre helps us to understand the aspect of her causal link with Cammy and Shadaloo." We selected the final character from The Dolls so we can further explore the Street Fighter IV universe. However, it doesn't speak much about The Dolls, which fan favorites such as Juli and Juni also belong to. "The Street Fighter IV series is basically a compilation of popular characters from the franchise. Capcom's Art TeamĪccording to the game's assistant producer, Tomoyaki Ayano, Decapre's status as a Doll was one of the main reasons why she was chosen as the fifth character-to help fix a missing link in the game's roster. It's quite rare to come across a design like this, where masking a large portion of the face actually makes it easier to read a character's emotions rather than more difficult. Interestingly, donning her mask allows her to cover the scar and therefore makes her emotional state easier to read. The fact that it crosses right between her eyebrows makes her look angry by default no matter what sort of expression she wears. Earlier this week, I spoke with developer Capcom about why Decapre made the cut, and what went into designing this brand-new fighter for the series.Ī lot of attention was paid to the design of Decapre's scar. It also didn't help that she looks almost exactly like Cammy with a mask. Bison's assassins-dubbed The Dolls-felt underwhelming to some given the series' strong lineup of memorable characters and outrageous personalities. Since Decapre lacks the nostalgia Hugo, Poison, Elena, and Rolento enjoy, as well as the novelty of being a completely original character, the odds were already against her. If our coverage is any indication, the response to this announcement was mixed at best. After several months of rampant speculation-including such contenders as Ibuki's friend and Ken's wife-Capcom finally put the rumors to rest at Final Round 17 in Atlanta, Georgia, with the reveal of Decapre, the next world warrior. These hints and others were all we had to go on as to the identity of Ultra Street Fighter IV's mysterious fifth character, who was first teased in the game's announcement trailer. And Ultra Street Fighter IV will be her fighting game debut. She'll come from the Street Fighter comics.
