The Basics

It's Guile.

Despite having the fastest projectile recovery in the game, EXA Guile doesn't typically zone his opponents from fullscreen. Consider SFEX fireballs an augment to the footsie game instead.

  • Expect to play a stunningly active Guile if you want to win consistently. Look for every chance you can to land Air Throw and run a mixup afterward.
  • Kara 2LK Sonic Boom is very good.
