[edit] History
[edit] Dead or Alive 3
One day, Brad's old drunken master Chen, great teacher of Zui Ba Xian Quan, says: "Bring me the legendary drink. The name is 'Genra'." "What is 'Genra'?", Brad asks himself, "It seems like a riddle." So Brad Wong begins his journey in search of 'Genra'. After three years of wandering, he finds himself in a fighting tournament.
[edit] Dead or Alive 4
Brad is still looking for the legendary drink Genra when he enters the fourth Dead or Alive tournament. During the third tournament he thought he had found it, but it turned out to be some sort of genetic monstrosity.
During his CGI ending scene, he had finally found the legendary drink, Genra, which gave him quite a trippy experience. It was not explained why the drink and the ninja-turned-monster share the same name.
[edit] Personality
Brad Wong seems to be characterized by his love of the drink as well as his overall nonchalant demeanor. He fights with honor and exhibits the spirit of a true martial artist in that he treats others with the respect they deserve, never talking down to an opponent, though of course, if attacked, he will defend himself.
[edit] Gameplay
Brad Wong is classed as a trick character. Regarding his tier however, he lacks priority in his moves. Despite this, many of his moves are visually unpredictable (especially those newer to the game) due to the "drunken" quality of his fighting style, being able to employ evasive maneuvers and make quick use of his various stances. However Brad is usually effective against new players only since they find his attacks impossible to counter or defend against. He's the only character to have kept all of his down attacks.
