no, i disagree. mishima ryu is probably the hardest hitting art i've seen in fighting game so far. i doubt ryu could tear robots in half with a simple body blow. Hiehachi and Kazuya were jacking those robots so hard i was actually happy the jacks didn't feel pain, so to speak. Heihachi survived the freaking HUGE ASS explosion. i doubt anyone from SF KoF could do that. i seriously do...save maybe the god tiers like Gouki etc. Heihachi wasn't even SCARED from taht explosion. he's a tough mofo. not to mention kazuya and hehiachi did all that after a thorough ass whoopping from Jin. Jin himself fought and defeated a fire breathing, part dragon, part bull, part snake, part whatever (Ogre) and won even though he fought with his bare hands. literaelly. BARE HANDS. Need i remind you that Ogre practically destroyed a helicopter with a simple back hand.
also cyborgs like Bryan who can tear off the top part of a tank and throw it 30 to 40 feet away are midtiers in the tekken universe.
everyone from SF KoF universe has projectiles, powers, flames, electiriciyt etc to fight. Tekken characters PWN with their bare hands. if anyone's outclassing any one, its the Tekken characters outclassing SF/KoF characters.
also, you DO know that the hadou-ken is simply as strong as a well laid kick right? also, ken's hadouken is like a well laid punch. so no, projectiles really don't matter. also they don't matter when you're up against guys who:
-beat firebreathing dragons
-laser beam shooting demons
so no...it really doesn't matter.
oh and it wasn't "garuda". it was ganryu.
i know...its disgusting nonetheless. *ma-wash-me*
Later dudes
