I don't know where to begin with this thread. Seven pages, hmm.
Well nevertheless, this is quite amusing. I'm laughing so hard right now.
I hope they do actually start somewhere with the reign of DLC characters. I'd highly expect Zasalamel and Talim, but if I had to choose one, I'd probably pick Talim. She was amazing in SC2 and then once SC3 came along I wasn't with it anymore.
Regarding the S&S, I personally believe that

and

are very different. I personally believe that Cassandra was a lot more agile then Sophitia, but Sophitia's moves were slightly slowed down in comparison to Cassandra's moves, but she hit a lot harder then Cassie ever did. I also believe that Sophitia is mainly a counter type of fighter. She's also quite aggressive. Unfortunately from what I've noticed she's horrible at long range, but she easily makes up for it with her strong attack throws, close quartered attack moves, as well as her immense strength and speed and of course, her 236B or 236236B moves to lead into combos or combo finishers. She is definitely more skilled and does more damage then Cassandra.
However, Cassandra's another story.
Cassandra's aggressive as well. She most definitely possesses the ability to place a lot of pressure onto her opponents through her aggressive combos, stuns and throws. Of course, don't forget her 236A which
someone happened to inherit. I can easily say she combines strength with speed and goes together with much grace and ease. However, like Sophitia she has horrible range as well, but she makes up for it with her great strength and speed.
