That's a strange complaint especially when the retail version did come with all the costumes up until release. I'm pumped there's new costumes and plan to pick them all up.
It's also worth point out the bullshit. The Comparability pack is 536.36 MB. However so are all the other individual costume packs. Which means that the compatibility pack is it's own DLC with it's own hidden locked content. It's not even close to worth the money. I caved and bought the 2014 challengers pack but even then, £3.19 is a fucking joke. It should be free.
Posting these b/c it's rare for me to get wins, especially against Rolento. If you're an insomniac, pay special attention, as any dhalsim match will put you to sleep.
Sim vs. Rolento
Sim vs. Cammy
Personally I think Rolento can safely handle Shaldim.
Edit: Dhalsi- whatever >: (
I play and main both (hence my name).
(I don't play characters how they should so people will most likely disagree with me)
Cody:
(I also point out that I am Cody with Knife player)
- Use (EX)Zonk Bingo Punch to get around fireballs. (FADC on block if you're scared/on hit into Ultra)
- Zonk Knuckle leaves Codys upper body invulnerable to attacks but only briefly. But this means you can dodge any mid and high attack. If a Ryu/any other character does an attack, Cody will duck into the background and hit. But if you use Bingo Punch, you can be hit low/tripped.
- Crouching Light kick is a great poke tool as it was buffed to 2frame start up. Also, try to confirm into a combo from it. Should out prioritise Ryu medium kick Poke
- EX Slide goes through fireballs and Metsu Hadouken
- Crouching Medium punch is an OK poke and can be special cancel-able. This is is also an easy special cancel-able confirm.
- Ryu cannot Tatsu through the rocks or knife. Rocks contain a special property unlike any other projectile in the game that stops them being have the same type properties as hadoukens/projectiles. Which means, as stated before, Ryu can Tatsu through Ken, Akuma, Poisons fireball etc but not Codys. Feel free to play the fireball game from full screen (but obviously be wary of your start up frames, though you have good recovery).
(I think Gouken is the only other character)
- EX Rocks are easy to confirm into Ultra or other big hitting combos.
- After being hit by a Shoryken, use sand attack (Up attack) on wake up to get Ryu (and other characters) if your arse. A lot of people will try to keep in your face. This stops it. Just don't spam if it if you're going to get crossed-up as it's unsafe
- Wake up Sand Attack also counts as a projectile and will stop Hadouken pressure on wakeup.
- Wake up Sand Attack is a reversal/lowers your hurtbox lower/the hitbox is higher than Cody during the animation/is an anti-air and stops every single character in the game from crossing you up due to the moves properties (See for yourself).
- Wake up Sand Attack can also be FADCd on hit/block to confirm into Ultra.
-
Use the knife. Makes him have the best normals in the game. I can't stress this enough and they do chip on block.
- Back Medium punch will beat all of Ryus jumping attacks. Good anti-air
- Standing heavy punch/kick have further range than all of Ryus attack making them also a good anti-air
- Utilise Codys Dash. He has little to no wake-up game but doing a wake-up dash can get you out of the corner and away from potential corner pressure or a cross-up. He has a pretty good forward dash
- Press down + taunt for fake rocks/Fake knife. This baits every player/character in the game to reacting.
Very important mind game.
- Criminal upper on hit puts you at safe jump range so SHORYUUUUKEN(!) won't hit if you safe jump.
- Ultra 2 goes through fireballs. The beginning sand attack is considered a fireball and will rival/fight against/absorb on coming projectiles.
- Standing medium kick goes above Ryus crouching medium kick making it an OK poke
I'll add more later and I can't be bothered to proof read. Also, too lazy to type out Poison but she's just a frkkin' amazing zoning character.

Going to shamlessly plug my channel here but if anyone is interested in seeing all 20(yes 20) colours of Poison and Hugos Vacation Pack DLC, then I just uploaded a video of them here:
