Another character that all of a sudden has a beard for no reason. I know for sure Ryu would never be the type to shave since he has everything he owns on him at all times, and with the way Sim seems to be similar, I doubt he'd shave either.
I do like that they didn't touch his appearance otherwise, other than some more paint on his body.
His ground flames let Zangief touch them both times standing with no visual damage so I wonder what the deal is with that. Yoga Catastrophe looks terrible / weak visually but it at least looks faster.
