The magnum opus of the Fatal Fury series despite not carrying over that much from those games. Every character has solid tools to be competitive with none of the advanced tech being mindlessly abusable. The presentation is also stellar, boasting fantastic animation and gorgeous stages. While I do think the game could have some minor changes (removing 1 frame unblockable supers, making guard cancels cost meter, etc) this is undeniably one of the most polished and satisfying fighters ever.
