Super Street Fighter IV AE/Cody

Cody

Lauded as a hero in the rescuing of Mayor Mike Haggar's daughter Jessica from the Mad Gear Gang in Metro City, it was expected for Cody to live a promising future as Jessica was also his girlfriend. However, the lure of combat from battling Mad Gear never left his blood and Cody turned to a life of constant fighting out of boredom! Eventually, his penchant for picking random brawls landed him in jail, and his relationship with Jessica was permanently ruined. But from time to time, Cody escapes prison almost at will and returns to the life of fighting, now taking to the Street Fighting circuit to find opponents.

In a nutshell

Cody is a rather versatile character who can play a strong defense with Bad Stone and Ruffian Kicks, but at the same time can be scary to deal with when he gets on the offense. He has a very direct method of attacking, utilizing Frame Traps and Hit Comfirms to deal most of his damage. He also has one of the farthest Overheads in the game. However, Cody suffers from a weak defense, especially being burdened with one of the wosrt Back Dashes in the game. He's definitely a character who has to work hard for his victories, which is odd considering how bored Cody is.

AE Changes

• Crouching Light Kick now has a 3 frame start up. Frame advantage on hit is still the same. Should be a better low poke, with reach, now.
• F + Hard Kick has more ability to juggle after connecting it. Until now, on a grounded opponent, the first hits of EX Criminal Upper didn't connect, but now they will.
• The range at which Cody can pick up the knife has been increased.
