New & Old Versions Comparison

Here is the list of differences:

• Obvious stuff: O.Dhalsim can not tech throws, does not have the Yoga Blast and Super;
• O.Dhalsim Close Normals behave normally, while for N.Dhalsim they are activated by blocking while pressing the button. N.Dhalsim also received 3 new close crouching normals (that were missing for O.Dhalsim and/or to keep things consistent): Fierce, Short, and Roundhouse;
• O.Dhalsim has some differences in some of his normals:
  • Far Standing Jab can be special canceled;
  • Close Standing Fierce first hit can be special canceled;
  • Far Standing Short can be special canceled;
  • Far Standing Forward can be special canceled (!);
  • Neutral Jumping Jab has new animation and properties;
  • Diagonal Jumping Strong has new animation and properties;
• O.Dhalsim only have the Forward Drill Kick, which is actually activated with Roundhouse;
• O.Dhalsim's teleport has a 1 frame longer startup, a different animation and it does not have a pushbox during the small period of time where Dhalsim's sprites are invisible and he is actually teleporting (i.e. shifting his position);

N.Dhalsim is often regarded as the best character in the game (excluding Akuma who is plain broken). O.Dhalsim isn't as good as his new counterpart, but he is very competitive and can be used against most characters without many problems.

Command Normals

• Drill Zutsuki a.k.a. Mummy Drill: (On air, ↙/↓/↘ + Fierce)

Damage	18[4]		File:ODhalsim mummy2anm.png

Useful because O.Sim can use it as a tick into Noogie.

O.Sim can only use the N.Sim Forward drill (though with the Roundhouse button), so he can't use the other drills to set up the opponent as much from up close, or as a reaction to a thrown fireball.
