Matchup Favorability
Favorability ratings are based on data collected by @CatCammy6 on Twitter based on ranked matches of similarly-skilled high rank players.

A.K.I.
Dhalsim vs. A.K.I. (48.05%)
No Data
Akuma
Dhalsim vs. Akuma (47.95%)
- OD Yoga Blast or Level 2 Super can beat Akuma's air fireball and demon flip approaches.
Blanka
Dhalsim vs. Blanka (48.44%)
- They like to slide in neutral to beat your fireball and other pokes. 5MK can stuff it but isn't entirely consistent. Blocking and punishing is the most consistent counter.
- 4MP can combo into 63214HP if it anti-airs Rainbow Ball.
Cammy
Dhalsim vs. Cammy (48.81%)
- Spin Knuckle will go cleanly through your fireballs, so be careful about throwing them out.
- Yoga Float is good for controlling the neutral here. Just watch out for Cannon Spike.
Chun-Li
Dhalsim vs. Chun-Li (53.68%)
- Chun will try to Hazanshu over your projectiles, but can get blown up by a DI in response.
Serenity Stream stance will low-profile the following moves:
- j.HK, 4MP, 236K (upward hit, point blank)
Dee Jay
Dhalsim vs. DeeJay (49.47%)
No Data
Dhalsim
Dhalsim vs. Dhalsim (50%)
Memey mirror matchup. Dhalsim can counter himself pretty well.
- Standard anti-fireball tips apply. Use 2MK, 2HK, and 2HP. Use them from Drive Rush if necessary. Yoga Float can go over them too, but be aware that Dhalsim is pretty good at countering Float.
- Yoga Float can be countered with 4HP and 5HK depending on height and distance. You'll probably have to cancel into them from Drive Rush. If you're the one floating, this can be avoided by teleporting away or quickly ending the float with j.LP.
- Watch for teleport spammers. You can do 4HK if they teleport high enough or just jab them if they teleport close to the ground.
Ed
Dhalsim vs. Ed (57.43%)
No Data
E.Honda
Dhalsim vs. E.Honda (46.88%)
Annoying matchup to deal with, but Dhalsim has the tools to keep Honda under control assuming that you know what they're going to do.
- Headbutt will get stuffed by fireballs, so be sure to throw those out.
- Once Honda respects your fireballs, you'll want to watch for OD headbutt which will go cleanly through them, but is punishable if blocked - no perfect parry required.
- Also watch for butt slams and regular jumps once they're afraid of your fireballs.
- Yoga Float can be good for avoiding headbutts, but you're susceptible to getting butt slammed.
- Butt slam can be avoided with 2MK and then punished with 1HP.
- It's important to use your pokes to keep Honda under control, but keep in mind that they will generally get stuffed by headbutt. 4MK can beat headbutt, but it has to be timed well.

Guile
Dhalsim vs. Guile (51.21%)
No Data
Jamie
Dhalsim vs. Jamie (51.39%)
- Drink attempts in neutral can be punished by your normals depending on range. Watch out for them trying to go fullscreen to sneak in a drink.
JP
Dhalsim vs. JP (51.81%)
OD Amnesia Bombs:
- After blocking/parrying the first bomb, Ground Teleport makes the second bomb whiff
- Be careful if JP is nearby, as he can hit you out of startup for a full combo
Juri
Dhalsim vs. Juri (49.68%)
- Her divekick can be stuffed with 4HP.
Ken
Dhalsim vs. Ken (50.92%)
No Data
Kimberly
Dhalsim vs. Kimberly (43.91%)
No Data
Lily
Dhalsim vs. Lily (61.36%)
No Data
Luke
Dhalsim vs. Luke (51.09%)
- Sand Blast is an annoying projectile to deal with. It's too fast to counter with 2HP - you'll just get hit. Slides work but of course carry risk. Yoga Float can go over it but can get stuffed by Rising Uppercut or Impaler (overhead kick). You have to watch for OD Sand Blast too - it will cleanly beat your projectile and knock you down if you didn't OD it. It's good to only throw out a few projectiles at a time then wait because of this. You're going to have to resort to parrying a lot and patiently waiting for Luke to make their move. Remember not too get too caught up with countering their fireballs because they will just jump at you too.
M.Bison
Dhalsim vs. M.Bison (39.77%)
No Data
Manon
Dhalsim vs. Manon (55.83%)
No Data
Marisa
Dhalsim vs. Marisa (58.55%)
No Data
Rashid
Dhalsim vs. Rashid (45.53%)
No Data
Ryu
Dhalsim vs. Ryu (53.11%)
No Data
Zangief
Dhalsim vs. Zangief (62.99%)
- Punish his overhead kick with 1HP. 2MP is too slow and will get blocked.
- Watch out for yolo Siberian Express attempts and be ready with a float punish.
- Watch out for occasional Tundra Storm (anti-kick move) attempts too. Some people like to do it to counter your 5HK.
- Respect his level 3 super. Zangiefs like to do it after an empty jump or in the middle of your blockstring pressure.
- Don't be afraid to go on offense. Zangief doesn't have great defense outside of level 3, and his lack of anti-zoning tools means that you can set up offense with fireballs more easily.
