Twelve Overview - Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike [4K]

Twelve breaks down the character's core design philosophy: unconventional movement tools like airdash paired with an invisibility taunt, likely borrowing visual inspiration from other fighting games' experimental designs. The developers compensated for these utilities by crippling damage output across the board — every combo, every hit deals noticeably less than the cast average. That Blasted Salami frames this as a deliberate balance choice, implying the character would have destabilized the game at normal damage values. Useful if you're learning why Twelve feels momentum-starved despite having evasion options most of the cast lacks.
