I love the thought you've put into this, both in terms of variety of critters, but also making them all interesting and varied in terms of game mechanics. There's a few I'm sad to see not in there, but most of them have a counterpart that is either more obvious (Mantis > Mantidfly), or would work better mechanically (much as I love amblygygids, uropygids would work better in this context).

Only other suggestions I'd have are maybe carpenter bees (or heck, Wallace's giant bee), but they run the risk of being OP what with flight, sting, and powerful mandibles, or solpugids because, heck, they're awesome (maybe final boss :D)

scenario: youve been tasked with picking the roster of an arthropod fighting game. theres only 10 slots. what 10 species do you pick

Dragon Mantis: a mantis is obligatory in general and this is one of the flashiest.

Bird Eating Spider: the largest tarantula also feels like a given, for a kind of slower tankish fighter with venom, webbing, and urticating hairs. Could also have moves incorporating a goliath spider's pet frogs :)

Cuckoo Wasp: a wasp is a given too but I pick this for being pretty and being able to roll up into an armored little ball.

Darwin's Beetle: mostly because people would just demand one of the armored big-horned beetles and I think this is the coolest looking one. Even slower than the tarantula with few gimmicks but very durable.

House Centipede: they're infamous for looking weird, there should be at least one myriapod and it could be a good "glass cannon" fighter because they're pretty delicate and drop their legs easily. Could actually shed a led to escape any grapple type attacks until it runs out of them.

Ant Queen: slow and vulnerable but moves are performed by the workers. An alternate skin could be a blue butterfly caterpillar.

Biting Midge: some midges actually suck the blood of other arthropods so this would be a super small evasive fighter that isn't very strong but replenishes its own health.

Velvet Worm: the projectile attack specialist.

Vinegaroon: between a projectile one and slower armored heavy hitter

Mole cricket: I feel like this would be fun and unexpected, able to go underground as well as fly and use a sonic attack.

There's only one figure fit for the zaibatsu

There's Only One Figure Fit For The Zaibatsu

How bad does the Mishima Zaibatsu's stock need to be if they're willing to give away the company as a prize in a martial arts competition, and furthermore how many of Tekken's roster would you even consider CEO material?
