Gimmick Awards 2023 – Best Fighting Game Toolkit Podcast

Every year, we fight over fighting games. We're enthusiastic about the genre (that's an understatement) and it's a delight to see the new ideas and spins on characters that surface as new games and DLC release. Sometimes, it's the little things that make all the difference: a few tweaks to a classic character to reinvent them. Sometimes it's an entirely new concept. Let's talk about the candidates for Best Fighting Game Toolkit this year. The Nominees Are: Suisei Hoshimachi (Idol Showdown) Juri (Street Fighter 6) Jamie (Street Fighter 6) Marisa (Street Fighter 6) Ryu (Street Fighter 6) Brawler (DNF Duel) Spectre (DNF Duel) Hinako Shijo (KoF XV) Anila (Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising) Siegfried (Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising) Asuka R# (Guilty Gear Strive) Bedman? (Guilty Gear Strive) Johnny (Guilty Gear Strive) Kimberly (Street Fighter 6) Here's our write-up for the winners!
