Guy

Known for teaming up with Cody and Metro City Mayor Mike Haggar in ending the Mad Gear Gang's reign of terror in Metro City, Guy took what he learned from his battle to rescue Haggar's daughter to heart and was determined to fine-tune his skills in the Bushin style of martial arts, a responsibility he took seriously being named the 39th master of Bushin-ryu. He took to the world of Street Fighting and it was there he learned of M. Bison and gained a new purpose in life: to rid the world of the evils of Shadaloo and M. Bison himself.

In a nutshell

Guy is a very tricky character. Not only can he be tricky to fight against, dealing with his "cross-up or not" mix-ups using Jumping Medium Kick and the Elbow Drop or dealing with his Run pressure up close or getting grabbed by surprise Bushin Throws, he's also a very tricky character to learn. Most of his attack plans and mix-ups are very unorthodox when compared to the majority of the cast, but that's one of his big advantages: opponents may not be used to this type of offense and defense. And that only makes Guy's mix-up game and odd style that much more effective.
