Two reasons.
1. SNK faggots are ALL larpers, no one outside of latin america gives a single shit about it, but they will pretend to
2. AWFUL guest characters like ronaldo and the singer gave the game a lot of bad rep

>LE GAME IS JUST TOO HARD ROFL
MvC and Third strike are even harder, yet still manage to get more players.
SamSho was insanely easy execution-wise and mechanic-wise, yet that game also died quickly.
face it no one cares about nu-SNK, and it will never compete in the big leagues with slime fighter and kekken.
Even KOF has a harder skill floor/ceiling, yet it has more players
>because the game actually requires lab work and you cant get to higher rank without labbing
this is true for most fighting games, you bafoon. in fact, this was a big thing in Tekken 7 (Not so much T8 becuase its completely braindead) where getting to intermediate ranks was super easy and just required running your game plan, but getting to high ranks was a big filter because you had to lab out counterplays to a lot of characters gimmicks and knowledge check while your own gimmicks would stop working once people learned which moves were susceptible to side step left/right

Tired of you pretentious SNK faggots trying to die on the "its too hard for normalfags" hill
