Capcom vs SNK 2/Balrog

Introduction

Ahh...Balrog. The Engrish-spewing wonder, based on the stereotypical "banned boxer" mold. Spewing such quotes as "I am John", "I got paid", and the infamous "NON-STOP MEEEEAT!!!"...he's one of the characters commonly laughed at, making victory while using him grounds for humiliating your opponent. But Engrish or no Engrish, he's still the same Balrog we've come to know and love, based on the Street Fighter Alpha model. With his dash punches, he's a good character for people who like to use Q in 3s.

Rule of thumb, most of the girls can go under it, with King being an exception. Then you just add the short guys.

I need to do some more testing. If anybody can confirm more characters, that would be awesome. --Eddosan 02:36, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

Faster to use the height chart, in Buktooth's system FAQ. Rog's st. HP hits height 64 and higher. Dash punch is 68 and higher.
