Tia Langray is an interesting mix of several well-known fighting game characters. For one... she definitely resembles Yuri Sakazaki with those leggings, converse, and headband. (I guess you would've had to play AOF2 or KOF for years to make that comparison.) Tia also has Chun-Li's lightning kicks, Guile's sonic booms, a Shoryuken, and M. Bison's psycho crusher. Wow. lol. Because the aforementioned characters debuted years before Tia Langray came into existence... Tia is guilty of plagiarism. Go to plagiarism jail. *Bonk*

In the Breakers series, Tia is interestingly enough the only "attractive" female on the roster (unless you're into buff jungle beast-women). That said, Tia is a naturally likeable design considering the limitations of the game's roster. To her credit, Tia is easily one of the more interesting characters from Breakers Revenge and has some pretty solid animations. Her fighting style ain't too bad, overlooking the rip-off stuff. You might even say she's the main protagonist of Breakers and one of the most recognizable characters from the game. You're cool Tia... you're cool. You just don't have to try so hard, y'know? Just be yourself. lol. I actually wouldn't mind seeing her make an appearance in a SNK crossover or even KOF.
