Ah yes, that video tutorial. Saw it a bit back, found the provided information to be excellent. And thanks for the evalution, I thought the team was pretty solid, just wanted to get a more of an expert's opinion on the matter.Just curious though, what do you think of Guile? I know someone (my brother) who has to have him on absolutely every team he has.
he's not the brighest person anyway, since he thinks Colossus's Anti-Air assist is better than the normal dash one, though I try to explain to him that it's rarely going to work.
Guile is a pretty decent character in my opinion. To somewhat break him down, he has some pretty good air combos (c.lk, c.hp, ^ *hold down to charge*, sj.lp, sj.lk, sj.mp, sj.mk, Summersault kick; does about 60 damage on normal characters out of the 143 point damage scale), a semi-infinite (c.lk, c.hp, ^, sj.lp, sj.lk, sj.mp, pause, hp grab, OTG c.lk, c.hp, repeat; will irritate opponents who don't know how to tech hit LOL) a great c.hp in general which counters a lot of incoming attacks, a good projectile which travels all the way across the screen, can cancel almost all of his normals to combo to any ground super, his Crossfire Assault air super which has almost instant startup and a good DHC tool, and an overall great assist character for controlling large amount of diagnal area. However, he does have some flaws. He has very bad recovery on his Sonic Hurricane super and Summersault Strike super (should really only be used if you are certain the super will hit), has almost no air mobiltiy (his Crossfire Assault kinda counts as an air dash at the expense of a super meter LOL), very limited rushdown offensive priorities, has slow dash/wavedash capabilities, and limited specials which consist of all having to charge. Overall, an okay character. About the Colossus thing, yeah, that assist only works if you opponent likes to be airborne more than half of the time. Even
if that is the case, ground assist still outweighs it in sheer versatility.
If you got anymore questions, I'll try my best to answer them 🙂
