glad u talked to the devs…

It’ll still be a good combo tool atleast if that’s true. I’m guessing HP will be the anti air one although if LP has a good hit box you could probably anti air and trade and get ultra that way. I also wonder what the stipulation on air hit is that lets him get full ultra off of EX backswing blow but not other launchers.

I’m hoping that he does indeed have a ton of options. I know a large number of Balrog players who need to be taught a lesson in the ring. Ah, the sweet science has a dignified representative again. I’m just disappointed that we won’t get to see Dudley leap from his classic his automobile before the round starts.

Right, because its easier. High technicality/execution barrier neutralizes that, or at least makes it so if you’re godlike, its because you’ve really earned it. Which is why the characteristics of “easy to use” and “top tier” should never go hand in hand (my issue with most of the high tiers in SF4.)

That’s always gonna be SF bro. SF is a simple ass game, sorry to say. If it makes you feel better I do play other games on the side and whore out more complicated top tiers, although I don’t play other fighters nearly as much as I used to.

what are you talking about? top tier and easy doesn’t have to go hand in hand in sf - if you look at yun and mak in third strike (yun specifically because him and chun are so close to eachother in the tier list), he isn’t easy to use at all - mak ain’t either

only chicken players play advantageous fighters with many ways to link into their ultra and super. fight like a man, play fei long

your trolling is well timed brucelee-kid

Uh huh. Playing 3s for 2 times on a cabinet doesn’t really qualify as playing 3s all along haha.

Highly unlikely if they were playing 3s around 2004.

Another 09’er complaining about bandwagons lol.

I usually don’t bring up join dates but in this thread it is funny as hell.
There are no such things as bandwagons in street fighter. People will play a character because they think he looks dope, or his playstyle is great or whatever.
I actually welcome more people playing the character, especially since he’s from 3s.
So please, all the people acting as if they reserved Dudley before anyone else, just stfu.

I can say that I have never ever played dudley in 3S, I used Ken and chun li. But he sure as hell looks dope in this game and I’ll be sure to tinker with this character.

Sir I am going to need you to head to the ibuki and viper forums sir. This is dudley land and I can’t remember you playing him…lol But anyway DJ make sure you get your copy so we can practice up. I am going to holla at you about ibuki too. You know I never used here in 3S but why not in this one. But as far as dudley goes oh yeah you know I am playing him again. Ryu is going to be taking a back seat for awhile.

Jeet Kune Do was all about using what worked and discarding the crap. Fei Long is crap… discard him. A real Jeet Kune Do man plays Dudley.

Who said i played it twice? I lived in Morocco for 3 years when i was younger, sure it really did get old when i was the youngest kid at the place and getting my money and credits stolen or downright smacked in the head while playing, but I’ve played third strike and i played SF2, I’m born in 1989 my older brother had SF2 on the mega drive and i played that shit then. Sure i wasn’t good at all and there was no way that could ever get better with the people picking on me. But i always liked third strike, i think the game has a style that no other game will ever rival.

I do agree on the rest of your post, people will play whoever the fuck they want and yeah more power to people wanting to play an interesting character.

Cool story, bro.

Every post doesn’t need your life story, you know.

Yeah point taken.

See when I was a young boy, I used to skip my last class or two in high school and go to the arcades to blow my money on Soul Calibur 2. Random people would come in and I’d beat the shit out of them and thought I was amazing. But after a while, other people like me started showing up and suddenly I had some competition. Tournaments started popping up and I was mad when I didn’t win my first few. But I trained got better, and kept on playing. Eventually I started winning the tournaments regularly, and then I got cocky. I was a big fish in a little pond. But I was young so I didn’t know. I called ATL out and they actually wasted their time driving all the way up to NC to rape me and the rest of our players. I played Rob the Destroyer near the finals and he SHAT ON ME HARD with Xianghua, who was top tier as fuck in that game. I got my ass beat and learned my place in the fighting game world, and have been playing ever since.

But the moral of this story is… PICK TOP TIER LIKE THAT GUY THAT RAPED YOUNG ME. See I can do it too.

Dudley for president.

What are you on about? My story had nothing to do with top tier if you want to make a sequel stick somewhat to the original plot. But nonetheless i won’t go with the usual internet meme of cool story bro, I’ll change it up to Hey nice tale mate. You know so we can keep it classy and all that.

I dunno I just felt like posting a story that I could relate back to dudley while I wait for this pizza to cook. Nothing personal, chap.

Would invite you to Rome but the pizza is god awful here.

Dudley’s looking too good man, I’m scared everybody will be hopping on him. He has some sick ass combos.
