Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown was originally released in Japanese Arcades in 2010, then later ported to the PS3 and Xbox 360 consoles, two years later, in 2012. Over this nine year period, there has been some movement in the Tier Lists according to Japanese standards, and more recently, there has been some renewed discussion on Twitter on what the list currently looks like. Notably, Homestay Akira has contributed his latest version, so this is probably a good time to review the evolution of the Tier Lists to date, and take a deep dive into what determines a character's ranking in a game like Virtua Fighter, and why, ultimately, it doesn't really matter.

The legendary Electric Cancel tournament returns to SoCal featuring a 3D centric lineup of games and attractions for today's competitive scene. We're back and bigger than ever before featuring Tekken 7, Soul Calibur VI, Dead or Alive 6, and Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown for the community.
