are there any fighting game characters that are bad for lore reasons and must stay bad in every game, joke characters not included they are not bad
like imagine playing a bad character and the entire world is agreeing, the description, in-game banter between characters, when you win with the character it's just a lose screen for the opponent freaking out about how they lost, they don't have their own arcade mode and they only show up in other character's arcade modes
and at first this archetype would just be weak, maybe cowardly, but as the archetype was refined through numerous fighting game iterations and spread to other games it would develop frantically, and now the original is called something specific like "traditional loser" and there are new ones like the anti-losers, who are so anti-social they don't want to be in your damn game or take this seriously, like in one other character's arcade mode the anti-loser is at a cafe drinking coffee and you bump their coffee cup and it spills on their shirt and this is the SECRET BOSS CHARACTER menacing kanji appear around them the sky is blood red your skin is burning BEWARE THE BROKEN CUP, FIRST SHOT, PULL!!
