A faster, more aggressive and, above all, French version of Zangief, Abel mixes pro-wrestling with traditional martial arts. C Viper is a supersonic striker with a curious love of aerial elbow drops – and an immediate hit with those who dared select her. So tuned are the newcomers to the game’s boisterous animation that they, more than any of the original World Warriors, make you comfortable with the new aesthetic.
