Opinion
Zangief become my favorite Street Fighter character from day
one. Zangief can be described by the 3 S's; "Slow",
"Sluggish", and "Strong". Zangief is a grappler
type character, which means he needs to be extremly close to a
character to inflict maximum damage. Getting close to an opponent
to inflict damage may seem like a disadvantage till you realize
Zangief's most damaging move, the feared "Spinning Piledriver",
is an unblockable attack. I can remember back in the day when
people would only use Ryu or Blanka and
ridicule the use of any other characters. I enjoyed the fact that
people understimated my Zangief, it would make my victories that
much sweeterr.
