Guile is the American Air Force officer from Capcom's Street Fighter series, first appearing in Street Fighter II in 1991 and known for his flat top haircut and Sonic Boom attack. Clips tied to his missions and stage intros have circulated on gaming soundboards for years, shared by fighting game fans for edits and streams. The short start cue fits his military character, so creators reuse it whenever a video needs an instant sense of duty, preparation and impending combat without any dialogue.
