| − | Q is ''the'' character from Capcom's 1999 [[Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike]]. Expert players are quick to recognize that Q is, undoubtedly, the best character in the game in all places and at all times. Simply selecting him is the equivalent of winning before the match has even started.

| | | | |
| − | However, in an attempt to prevent extreme overuse of the character in tournaments, high-level players continuously rank Q as a low-tier character. Thus, misguided players believe they have incentives to refine their skills with other fighters.

| − |
| |
| − | As seen in his [http://www.vgmuseum.com/end/arcade/a/sf3-3q.htm ending], Q has a habit of appearing in random locations. It's not quite photobombing, but this act still has potential for maximum random shenanigans.
