What game are you watching? He does not try to overtake Bison at all in SF4. In his prologue he is brought back into Shadaloo to do a specific job (oversee and ensure the safety of the Human Incubators) for the promise of large sums of money. This makes him suspicious because it’s just a simple job for so much money. In his ending we see him plunder the lab after it was destroyed in the tournament, and he steals a young human incubator because he thinks the is very valuable/will get him more money.
He went from a Shadaloo King to a bruiser/thug security guard who talks like a brute dumbass and only cares for money.
No, he is not the same. Feel free to show direct parallels with previous versions of the character to prove your point.
Steve Fox from Tekken has one hop kick attack. I don’t see anybody losing their shit over that. Balrog fans shoudn’t either. I mean Balrog uses dirty tricks like stomping on your foot or headbutting you already, adding just one small kick attack wouldn’t hurt. After all, for pure boxing experience there’s always Dudley
Balrog isn’t clouded by delusions of justice or morality. He will do what he needs to do to win. So no. In fact, it would be in character for him to cheat like that, throw in a kick or bite your face off with his teeth.
Balrog player bets Fight Money in order to face another Balrog player betting Fight Money. Both players use requested Fight money V-Skill throughout the match, in order to get more Fight Money. Losing Balrog shouts “My Fight money” while other player wins and collects his Fight money.
