At the very least they could have just followed through with the whole Dragon Power story with Lin and all that instead of dumping it. Would have made him more interesting than just "legacy character who eats buns and fanbois over Athena every game".But at least 2001 was a lot more fun to play than '99 or 2000.
Plus, it's not like Ash hasn't been a staple this entire time. Who is a more Eolith era character than Ash? So I don't buy the thinking SNK has been avoiding them. I think people just like to read conspiracy into coincidence.
Remember when they hinted at Kensou being the next main character after Nests? And the whole world said, no thanks.
About Duck, it's true it doesn't make sense, but I'd welcome him under any circumstances.
I'm all for bringing Duck back, but if they really want to "shatter expectations" they should made a FF1 team or something. Him, Richard Meyer, Michael Max, or Hwa Jai. Or just a "characters from Fatal Fury you haven't seen in forever" team with any one of Xiangfei, Franco Bash, Alfred, etc.
