Duo Lon from King of Fighters XII. What the heck is this? He looks so incredibly goofy, what with that bent left hand and right leg. It probably hurts more to stand like that than actually get hit by others. Besides, King of Fighters always had the weirdest battle stances for it's characters.

Duo Lon in action

 

[Brofield]

I can't unsee that camel toe.

Stupidest fighting stance...

...man, I can't even think of one cause of that gif.

 

[Finaika]

 

[LiK]

yea, that stance looks pretty dumb. OP

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Will this thread end up full of Voldo gifs?

 

[shaowebb]

 

[chertipros]

 

[Concept17]

What is this from? Look at that form on his ball-fondling.

 

[TOM f'N CRUISE]

lol

 

[ElectricBlue187]

this one is actually pretty awesome

 

[Samurai_Heart]

What is this from? Look at that form on his ball-fondling.

He's Oro the hermit in Street Fighter 3. He's apparently supposed to be so badass he ties one hand so that other fighters gets a handicap.

 

[RustyNails]

Let me guess...PCP?

 

[Slamtastic]

Can't find a gif though

 

[El Sloth]

this one is actually pretty awesome

Seriously. Billy is awesome.

Finaika with dat bad taste.

 

[shaowebb]

lol

Let me guess...PCP?

Close enough.

Also I can't find an animated gif of Voldo from Soul Calibur but this is pretty much it.

=

 

[sleepykyo]

I'd like it without the heart. The guy is supposed to be posessed and all, so an impossibly arched back seems fine.

 

[Slamtastic]

I get that Ash's personality and all, but why does the evil boss of the game twirl his hair too?

Oh that right, because SNK's expensive and time consumng decision to stay with sprites led to tons of headwaps.

 

[gurudyne]

Was going to say Voldo, but wow, OP beats that by orders of magnitude. Why is the foot cocked like that?

 

[comrade]

Let me guess...PCP?

Bath salts.

 

[Finaika]

Seriously. Billy is awesome.

Finaika with dat bad taste.

I just thought SNKP were too lazy to animate it compared to his previous stance:

 

[Fusebox]

Lion

That shit might fly in some wuxia movie but it isn't practical!

 

[Perro]

wtf KOF

 

[shaowebb]

Lion

That shit might fly in some wuxia movie but it isn't practical!

I see no problems with this since I main Chin Gentsai in KOF 13

Though not as chill as Chun Li's crouch stance.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Dr. Boskonovitch from Tekken 3. Dude just lays around on the floor.

or maybe it was the most fucking awesome... I am not sure.

 

[Terareflection]

I am glad they went to the 96 stance in XIII.

 

[hypernima]

Looks really comfortable as a fighting stance to me lol

 

[XenoRaven]

Oh that right, because SNK's expensive and time consumng decision to stay with sprites led to tons of headwaps.

And thank goodness they did.

It's hardly stupid though.

I would post Rolento's if I could find it. He stance always seemed real cramped for no reason.

 

[MisterHero]

Yeah I hadn't thought about it in a long time but Lion's a jerk

I suppose it fits with the character, but I feel they ruined Dan's stance in SFIV.

 

[Finaika]

Another one:

 

[XeroSauce]

I actually love Voldo's stance because it confuses the hell out of my friends when I play him.

What are you supposed to do against a half-naked BDSM man writhing on the floor towards you

 

[Fraeon]

Zafina's Voldo-style stance is pretty silly.

 

[shaowebb]

Needs more Street Fighter 3 cast.

Joker-Savage Reign

Honorable mention from Savage Reign goes to Carol Stanzack for fighting with Rhythmic Gymnastics. Her stance isn't too goofy, but my God her other stuff is hilariously terrible for fighting.

 

[Zee-Row]

[SuperDowns]

Looks like Capoeira, not sure if that is intentional.

 

[Fraeon]

I'm not sure whether Ryo's 98 stance is dumb or cool.

 

[Spring-Loaded]

DoA5's Tina. I like little ass-shake though

 

[Zee-Row]

I always thought T-Hawk had a pretty goofy stance.
