For essentially two decades at this point, fans have been pleading for SNK and Capcom to work together again, and the wish is finally being fulfilled for a new generation.
Capcom just released the official character guide video for Terry Bogard in Street Fighter 6 as the game’s second DLC character for Season 2 after M. Bison.
Like all of the other previous DLC character guides released for SF6, the team shows off all of Terry special moves and attributes in action with more detailed explanations as to how they can be applied in the heat of battle.
Capcom makes sure to point out at the beginning that Terry excels in both offense and defensive options with a slew of normal and special attacks that are pretty straightforward to use and understand.
The guide starts off focusing on the Power Wave, which they point out moves slowly over a long distance for the light version while the medium is much faster, can cancel out opposing projectiles and knocks down on counter hit but doesn’t travel fullscreen.
Power Wave’s Overdrive variant moves even slower than the light version but can hit multiple times and makes it a great approach tool using Drive Rush similarly to Juri.
His heavy version of the input gives Terry the Round Wave that doesn’t travel at all, but it is plus on block.
Capcom even brought in one of Terry’s most obscure specials in Quick Burn, which they state can be used to combo from light attacks, hits overhead on the second punch and sounds fairly safe on block except to maybe light attacks.
On the medium and heavy inputs you use for Quick Burn, Terry can also perform his signature Burning Knuckle that travels different distances depending on the strength.
They note that Mr. Bogard can actually be at advantage if the knuckle is blocked at the correct spacing, which they point out is indicated by the screen shaking.
The guide also gives an example for continuing a combo after a Punish Counter OD Knuckle into his Buster Wolf Super or more extensions in the corner.
Terry is still slated to release in just over a week from now on September 24, so fans won’t have to wait much longer to take the wild wolf for a spin themselves.
