The Thorgi Thread

I noticed that Thorgi and his videos are talked about semi-regularly on this website, though he doesn't have an article himself, so I thought to create this thread to discuss him and his videos.

He does a bunch of stuff review games, comic books, movies, tv shows, and more. But one thing he specializes in, especially on his Thorgi's Arcade channel, is building rosters or even creating entire concepts for fighting games.

For example, in his most recent as of the making of this thread video for Thorgi's Arcade he built entire rosters for each Super Smash Bros. as if Sakurai made them with SEGA.

Their are some weird omissions on that roster. But still an entertaining video overall.

He made a video about which teams he'd like to see added to KOF XV as dlc.

Seeing May Lee in the thumbnail makes me sad that she's forever stuck in mobile game hell.

He likes her so much I swear he listed her twice.

Most of those are fine. I wholeheartedly disagree with putting Adelheid with Vice and Mature, though. It makes no sense. They were monitoring Rugal and his experiments on Orochi Power on behalf of Goenitz. Their third should really be Goenitz.

Didn't they turn on Goenitz?

They betrayed him because they decided they liked Iori and wanted him to become the host for Orochi. So they used their power to awaken Iori's Orochi Power instead of saving Goenitz, but he couldnt control it and entered the Riot of the Blood. Iori then killed both Vice and Mature.

But ultimately that just means the team would have internal conflict. Goenitz is still their superior among the Hakkesshu while Vice and Mature are literally undyingly loyal to the Orochi bloodline.

Things like betrayal or dislike arent really reasons to say a team cant work. Rather, they're plot hooks to drive the narrative that the teams follow. Kula didnt like Angel or Khronen, but her being on their team helped round out Khronen's character and facilitate a moment for Team K'.

Of course you could always team them up with Leona's dad if you want Team Good Orochi, but that would require introducing him properly as a new character.

Weird to have backstory deaths back.

His idea for an Anti-Kyokugen team is good, but unfortunately i'm not sure it can fit with team Art of Fighting's ending.

I wonder if he could make a build the roster for an Xbox crossover game

Part 2 of the KOF retrospective

I laughed way to hard at the fourth character slot reveal

2nd year anniversary for the show

10 year anniversary of the Crossover that killed Capcom's comeback

NOW FIGHT YOUR RIVAL

Anyone know the name of the song Thorgi uses in the intro of Build The Roster?

That would be Ken's theme as it plays in Smash Bros.

Does anyone knows if he would consider expanding from fighting games to other genres for his show Expanding the Roster? One idea I have for an episode would be for Sega All-Stars Racing 3.

Fun fact, in the anime series Street Fighter II V, Sagat was sent to prison due to being framed for drug dealing after he refused to participate in a match for a crime syndicate. Fahkumram being a rival in a possible Tekken/Street Fighter game is even more fitting.

I'm not totally sold on Kazuya vs Urien but I do like Akuma vs Feng more than I thought I would.

Part Too

Thorgi dies explaining it all

This week on Build the Roster: Mortal Kombat VS Street Fighter!

• This game would have a gore setting with EX moves in the style of Injustice 2's supers replacing Fatalities.
• There would be a groove style setting where you can fight like a Street Fighter game or a Mortal Kombat game, and the characters would change to be more or less violent to compensate.
• The roster would have 30 characters with 2 bosses as pre-order bonuses. The characters would have to fit the tones of both Mortal Kombat (no overly cutesy characters like Sakura) and Street Fighter (no overly edgy characters like Erron Black).
  • Street Fighter: Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Cammy, Zangief, Rose, M. Bison, Vega, Blanka, Akuma, Jamie, Cody, Poison, Charlie Nash, and Juri Han with Necalli as the boss
  • Mortal Kombat: Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Liu Kang, Sonya Blade, Jax Briggs, Cyrax/Sektor, Raiden, Shang Tsung, Baraka, Goro, Johnny Cage, Takeda, Kano, Kitana, and Mileena with Shao Kahn as the boss
• The DLC fighters:
  • Mortal Kombat: Jade, Kabal, Reptile, Nitara, and Onaga
  • Street Fighter: Guile, Sagat, Crimson Viper, Gill, and Q
