All day every day training for 3 weeks is quite enough of time especially for someone like PR ROG with top players to train against.
Balrog is going to be in the Street Fighter V June update on Friday
- Thread starter Dartastic
- Start date

never cared about Alpha 3 tbh
never been big on Balrog before but I didn't like Bison either before SFV. I'll definitely give him a try - I love charge characters and I like the idea of a motion super. Also I still haven't spent any FM on either PS4 or PC.
Gotta remember to make sure I do all of the Guile/Alex stuff for free FM on both. Friday's a holiday here so I'll have time surprisingly.

It just gives KBrad an excuse when he goes out in pools.
Chris T too lol.
Chris T more than Kbrad lol.

He looks alright. Never been particularly excited by balrog
I thought SF4 Balrog was really boring, but this version has me interested. The target combos remind me of Dudley, and the dash punches remind me of Alex (who I currently main).

me neither Alpha 2 all day errday
Chris T is in 8th, K-Brad is in 11th, so not really.
This thread.
There's no goddamn way anyone is going to get enough at Balrog in time for Evo. We're talking less than a month's time of practice to fully optimize his kit.
Nevermind that, is he even going to be legal? Didn't Wizard say if the new character(s) weren't in by like the middle of this month they wouldn't be legal?
For most any game Wizard & co. ban anything that at least hasn't been out for a month for players to practice...
Wizard already confirmed both will be legal.
He is legal.
they said both ibuki and balrog will be a-okay
Damn alright then wowwwwww. EVO will surely be interesting then.
3 weeks on a new character definitely isn't enough time, haha. Besides, training that way is pretty bad for you.
Solid practice against good players with breaks >>> Nonstop training.
I meant of him complaining on twitter about stuff.
They had a stream for her like a month ago. Maybe someone will play her against Balrog today.
I'm personally in the "short supers" camp, but the only thing I wish Gigaton Punch did was make the opponent spin head-over-heels like it did in Alpha. That was such a simple, but unique effect that made the move stand out.
Yeah, back in May the week before they announced the delay for the character released.
She has been on a couple or so streams, should be plenty of footage of her on youtube.
I mean...isn't cammy the only one with an unsafe vreversal?
The data is pretty uniform on them other than her.

His v-skill can go through anything if properly timed. Its like Cammy's v-skill, except you get 2 attack button follow-ups out of it, or u can not hit a button & get a follow up throw. YOu can also dash-punch & cancel into your v-skill

It's the same. I've been doing it with Q in 3s for a decade. Having that ability to react makes it so much better.

You just fireball your charge move, it's like doing the chariot tackle SA in third strike after a tackle with Urien.
Does it have a few full-invincible frames? I saw Cammy cr. short him out of it while they were doing casuals, but I can't remember if she was stuffing him at his startup or while he was already into the turn.
EDIT: Someone uploaded the part where they were testing it. At one point it does look like he goes through her LK, although it could've conveniently happened when she had no active frames. Also hard to tell if the folks commentating are speculating or stating facts regarding the move. Guess I'll find out soon enough.

i've always had trouble comboing charge moves into motion supers in 3rd Strike, so i'm not too happy that they made the change to Balrog in this game =(

Bursted out laughing from reading these.
Can't wait for Balrog and Urien, though I hope there's an option to make the latter have darker skin.
