Jesus Christ, he's gotta have some weaknesses. His moves are surprisingly safe, his normals are fantastic and he has a way to get through fireballs.

His defense has got to be the worst in the game or something.

 

[Neoxon]

Way to step on the toes of Ibuki's hype, Balrog.

 

[Salty Rice]

Damn Balrog looks awesome.

 

[mysteriousmage09]

Balrog is ridiculous, god damn!

 

[Ferrio]

V-skill is pretty boring

 

[Village]

Way to step on the toes of Ibuki's hype, Balrog.

Its cory balrog time

 

[spindashing]

....WTF BALROG IS TOO GOOD

 

[kirblar]

His wakeup options seem worse than Birdie's.

 

["God's Beard!"]

he can v trigger cancel his overhead holy shit

nobody else can do that

 

[KingBroly]

That's -2? REALLY!?

 

[Alucrid]

an overhead, that follows up a projectile dodge, that can get a combo, that can be made safe with v trigger

8 frames has never been stronger

 

[spindashing]

EVEN HIS HEADBUTT IS SAFE

 

[spindashing]

WHAT THE FUCKSNEMENDSKAJ

 

[KingBroly]

What the hell, man? Balrog is too good

His damage doesn't look too good.

 

[Xeteh]

Man Balrog is looking insane.

 

[Zackat]

[Alienous]

[Alucrid]

i ain't competing

it's going to be great

 

[Spinosaurus]

Yo this character has everything.

I'm getting ST Rog vibes.

 

[『Inaba Resident』]

fighting Balrog
with 8 frames of lag

 

[BronsonLee]

how much health does he have?

All of it

 

[Sinatar]

Yo this character has everything.

I'm getting ST Rog vibes.

He has no wakeup or reversal options.

 

[BadWolf]

EVO should be fun.

 

[Xeteh]

Nope, not a charge CA.

 

[lucebuce12]

That turn punch. I ... can't ... I don't......

This fucking character.

 

[cackhyena]

EVO legal

lol

 

[KingBroly]

Fireball Super

Holy shit

 

[Neoxon]

Fireball Super

Holy shit

It's game over, guys. PR Balrog won EVO.

 

[spindashing]

New main. I need this man. Fuck.

 

[Emperor Bohe]

kinda sad that the super isn't charge motion like guile tho

 

[El Sloth]

Why'd they give Rog Bionic Arm tho

 

[JayEH]

this is good. this is very good. there's no escape indeed.

 

[Sinatar]

Fireball super actually makes it harder to combo into out of his dash punches. Interesting choice.

 

[Steroyd]

Holy fucking shit you can't neutral jump with a CA charged Balrog from full screen.

 

[lucebuce12]

And for those who aren't that impressed with the CA, remember it's one hit.

You know how Karin's CA always does more damage than you expect? That's cause the scaling means that larger and fewer hits are more effective than smaller and more hits.

 

[Dartastic]

Man. I can't waaaaaaaaaaait for this update.

Also, he has no crossup. So that's a weakness.

 

[spindashing]

GOD BLESS DIRTY BOXERS

 

[Emperor Bohe]

Why'd they give Rog Bionic Arm tho

he had it first in Alpha 3 breh

 

[Gren]

I'm no good at on-the-fly shenanigans, so his V-Skill will be put to bad use by me (and I'm sure to be susceptible to falling for it myself).

Had to close the stream for a bit, but did they go over what might be his best anti-airs? I only saw the neutral jump straight punch they did.

 

[Zackat]

this guy is ridiculous

 

[Tallshortman]

PR rog Evo top 8 confirmed.

 

[Alucrid]

i'll never make fun of balrog's tiny hands again

 

[PK Gaming]

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.

 

[Alchemist]

Full screen CA looooool

 

[jwhit28]

I'm gonna miss headbutt. I wish they would have made torpedo punch v-reversal instead.

His cr.hp seems to be his best normal for it.

It's also a CC because why not.

 

[pablito]

Chris T and KBrad already salty Balrog and Ibuki gonna be EVO legal lol

 

[jett]

THE DAMAGE on those last two combos

I hope Eduardo can take this Rog to the end at Evo.

 

[Slowdive]

That damage.
