Introduction
This guy with the boxing gloves is Balrog(M. Bison in the japanese version), but let's call him just Boxer, to prevent confusion. If you used him in any Street Fighter game, you'll probably know that he is a charge character, but there is a difference between the SF games, and this game. Here, he is bad. Bad enough to be low tier(I think Dan can stand a chance against him). Now for his pros and cons:
The Champ's Good and Bad things
Good Things:
- Has nice normals to use as pokes/footsies;
- Has decent charge attacks(I mean, he has only charge moves);
- He got an anti-air that can juggle your opponent;
- Exceed does good damage(Like most of the others in the game, but it will help him);
- TAP(Turn-around punch) can dodge some moves(Only the mid and low-hitting ones);
- Has easy, short, but effective combos to use in a match;
Bad things:
- Very hard to master(You can use his strats from other games, but I can't say that they will work);
- Has no Command Moves(When I said that he has only charge moves, I wasn't lying);
- Most of his Special and Super Moves can be countered easily;
- Exceed has short reach;
- Although the TAP can dodge some moves, it can't dodge Super projectiles(Probably because most of them are big);
- Has no long range options;
- And no good air options(Meaning that he can't jump freely, unless if he can get a stun);
- Has no long combos(I think he has one, but it will be hard to do, I'm pretty sure, because you'll charge almost everytime).
