It never ceases to amaze me that if you look in the Hakan tag you have to scroll by about 7 posts of a nude, un-oiled man that isn’t a wrestler before you find the post about the clothed, oiled up wrestler you originally came in there for.
“Oh my fucking god. Just pick a real fucking character already”
As said by a very disgruntled SFIV (NOT AE) player after his Akuma lost to my Hakan.
To put this in perspective. I am ass-decent at SFIV but even I will admit I play Hakan *completely* wrong. I rely heavily on Oil Slide pressure, I rarely ever oil up and I both primarily play 3D fighters AND play on pad so I cannot do 720s to save my life. That means I don’t command throw.
Which means his Akuma lost to an on-oiled Hakan that dosen’t even use his best move (his P-Command Grab).
Sure, it’s scumbag as all fuck but it’s alsoFUCKING HAKAN.I dropped Cody because I started getting bored back in Super so I picked up Hakan and never looked back.

Updated SSFIVAE 2012 tiers.
Hakan in D rank will never be acceptable. Y’all bitches just don’t understand how Turkish Oil works.
I think I am going to drop being a pad player and get a stick.
Not because I think it’ll help my game at all…I just want a sick-ass customized stick to show off.
That would also require that I actually go to a tournament at some point…
Which would require that I get non-scrubby at a game that people actually PLAY at tournaments.
…Which means I have to main someone else other than Hakan at AE 2012 and Deadpool/Taskmaster/Shuma at Ultimate. Goddamn tier whores.
That feel when no one uses Hakan ever on stream so you never learn any new tech.
Just when I thought I was going to give up on Hakan. Just when I was about to give up and just say “Fuck it” and go back to Cody.
…I fucking Perfect a Yun.
Twice. (He dropped a Genai-jin combo and ate a Focus attack into U2 for the first one, and the second one he was just hellbent on divekicking..so he divekicked into a U2)
There might he hope for you afterall.
