Street Fighter Alpha

Introduction

The 1995 Interquel that tells the story between Street Fighter and Street Fighter II along with Final Fight characters, and was rebooted in the sequel (Ken's Ending can be the only cannon fact in this game, due that he fought in the first USA Martial Arts Tournament instead of the World one that had won by Ryu).

Defense tiers

This is very basic and works as follows

Akuma takes 1-3 extra damage from most moves in the game

Birdie takes around 1-4 Less damage from most moves in the game

Everyone else has normal defense ratings

Supers

supers can not be blocked if your not blocking before the super flash and are close enough effectively making almost all supers 0 frame startup in a sense(just like rolento tripwire in a2)

The only exceptions are

sodom 720 you can jump it like an alex power bomb  : *(

Adon kick Super

Birdie supers aside from the charge one

obviously rose jump super and shadows since one is a buff and one is a antiair move
