@FLStyle
I saw some of Arturo playing the story mode last night. I know most fighting games aren't known for their story but the "cutscenes" (90% still-images with voiceovers) looked really bad.
 
"I love my sister!"
 
"Fight me and prove it."
 
*whack*
 
"Okay, you proved it."
 
Now repeat that for 2-3 hours. Congratulations you have unlocked everything there is to unlock from the story mode. Also, you're only allowed to play 2 characters and their alts (and one of them whines either way) for almost all of the story and there are no alternate paths for losing a match. Have fun.

Fun fact: 95% of people buy fighting games for the multiplayer. Nobody is going to touch the story mode.

[citation needed], especially since the streamers were playing through that same story mode to unlock shit.

Besides, if that is true, why the fuck are they charging a full $60 for it?

I must admit I'm not sure how the meter usage works in sc5.

Wow, so many controller issues there at the end. It was really hard to watch.
