Moveset looks great. Don't like the character design at all though. It's bland and his hat is way too small for his head. Why? Bisons hat fits fine.

I honestly can't tell who this is aimed at lol.
Casuals won't like it since mashing will lead to random shit. Also his moveset is completely different from everyone elses.
Hardcore fans won't like it but that's mainly because they don't like anything that isn't from SF2 or SF3.

Press for awesome.
Jaw dropping
Looks like he has an OTG at 53 seconds
I think they know the game is a lost cause so they're just throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks for future games.

Damn, that is so true haha.
I can't really get my head around it either, as to what the decision behind this was. I'm curious to try him out though and watch other people play him because if he's OP I'm going to laugh my ass off at the almost non existent stick usage lol.
A character I can play with one hand PogChamp
Good point.
Street fighter hasn't been good since 2
I bet you there is some SF1 fan out there who like
Street Fighter hasn't been good since 1
Nah, casuals will like it because mashing will now lead to cool shit happening on screen.
That's why they like games like MK and 3D fighters. You don't need to know what you're doing to have stuff come out. Did you watch the athletes play for eleauge? See Shaq mashing c.lk? That looks bad to the person playing and the casual watching. With Ed, you'll get shiny purple stuff of on screen intead of the weakest attack over and over repeatedly.

But he is not. Capcom official stance on his nationality is "unknown".

The next DLC character should only have two buttons and the strength should vary depending on how hard you mash them.

That music is insufferable. Where's all the cool acid jazz from 3rd Strike etc? Sigh.
Any way, his design is pretty creatively bankrupt but he looks fun/satisfying to use at least.

How is this any different than names like Ryu, Ken, Charlie, or Cammy? LOL.
What do you expect when Balrog is his dad lol

Well, Arcade mode, along with other features & classic characters, are coming. Capcom will be shouting their announcement from the rooftops.

Only one move is done by rapid press. This is the quintessential casual character. The only move that requires execution is his CA. Everything else can be done via mashing.
Counter: I think there's tons cool about him. I like my white boxing chinese movie martial arts villains.

Love everything except the hair.
They need the reverse for Sakura so she's still a school girl.
I want her back so bad.
SNEAKERS DOES WHAT CAPCOM DOESN'T.
When do you think? ... Please? Just a very vague answer works so you don't ruin anything... Please? Haha.

I never really enjoyed playing shotos too much but I always had a soft spot for her.

Two button press input sounds interesting, but I'm worried about how that'll work on a pad. I have a hard time doing Urien's EX ground-to-air fireball because it's involves a simultaneous face+trigger button combo that I seem to miss half the time. And the config menu does not let you map any two button press, just a handful of pre-set ones (not LP+HP).
Design wise, I like everything about him except that hat. I'll probably go with his Story Mode costume for now.

It's in 3s, I'd suggest you play it but let's be honest that people only pretend to play it.
