Super Street Fighter IV AE/Dhalsim

Dhalsim

Although greatly opposed to violence and its antithetical nature to his yoga practices, Dhalsim has become one of the most powerful warriors on the Street Fighter circuit thanks to his intense training, meditation, and practice with the yoga arts. Originally, he entered Street Fighting as a means to financially save his village from an epidemic but, after discovering the corruption and evils behind the workings of the circuit, Dhalsim has vowed to purge the world of these evils and continues to fight as a means to that end.

In a nutshell

Probably the most calculated of the defensive characters, Dhalsim requires great reflexes and a deep understanding of his entire arsenal. No one option counters multiple attempts to break your defense, so it is imperative to know them all and know them well and to be able to pull them out at a moment's notice. Quick reaction and a steady mind are key for Dhalsim, but just be ready to accept matches where you keep the opponent out for 80 seconds only to have them get in and defeat you in 10 seconds. Thus is the life of Dhalsim players.
