Note this can always be changed as players better utilize moves and figure out optimal strats or ring out setups.

I feel like Astaroth could get faster with ring outs, but the levels in this one are filled with walls and bad spawn positions.. could get a good run for sub 50 maybe, but heavy RNG with enemy movements. Really need to give some of the IL board stuff a try eventually, its a sweet addition here!

Yeah definitely he has huge potential actually if you can get a perfect KO with one move. Which can KO in 3 seconds IGT. Again as I said the times and positions can change with people who can use them to their full potential.

Heihachi is definitely an old run and can be improved I imagine. Also to note that Kilik run of mine I had a faster run, but the frames were choppy. The fastest I got was 1:09.41 naturally I did not want a choppy video. He could probably go as far as B tier. Mitsurugi too could be higher if you do one attack and the one in SC where he slams the sword down. But the AI always moves away when on the ground.

Thanks, I'm hoping this will grow the community and give us something to run. As it is natural Cassandra is one of the best to use others just can't compete. This way people can use the characters they like.
