Ngl, making Ed the (apparent) heir to Bison as Luke is the (apparent) heir to being the poster child is really fucking neat in terms of narrative potential.

[@azuresaiyan9005]

Blonde vs Blonde. Just how Capcom loves it.

[@DuskMindAbyss]

They wont do anything with it

[@Bonehead_Paladin]

I personally see Ed as a contrast to JP JP who held a position of power in shadaloo is carrying on Bison's ambition and desire to exert control on other's while also exerting said power in more subtle and cunning ways as he viewed Bison's brutal methods as pure madness While Ed who was nothing more than a pawn in Bison's eyes is now fighting to dismantle everything bison has dared touching with his bare fists, leveraging his psycho power to enhance his physical aptitude and fight for good

I'm one of those single-player guys so most of my play time in this game is spent in world tour mode. My avatar is modeled after me and I do boxing in real life and was inspired by boxers in fighting games. So the addition of Ed brings the closest to my fantasy of being a fighting game character.😅

[@Juggernaut76]

Just try online. Play casual for about 50 matches just to get a feel for it then do your Ranked matches for placement. Don't be stressed or mad if you lose. There are plenty of people playing at all skill levels. It's a whole new world online. You can go into Battle Hub to mess around, continue to practice in Casual, and apply what you learn in Ranked. It may not be for you or it might click and become your favorite part of the game. There is no in match voice or chat, so you can just focus on playing the game.

[@kevingriffith6011]

The way they worded that background with "neo shadoloo being cast-off experiments" makes me think there's a possibility that we're going to see Seth again... If Ed can work them through that "kill bison" rage bit then they'd be a shoe-in for a spot on the team.

[@fearanger1]

Ayo, using Ed to buildup both him and Seth post-Bison? That'd be sick!

[@afrikasmith1049]

I would love to see Ed, Balrog and Dudley in SF6 now.

[@Hawkster52]

I'm not speaking to Max specifically, but I remember people *praising* that SF6 would go close to a year without any real balance changes or modifications and that they would "let it play out". And yet here we are in February and people have taken a 180 and are upset at the lack of added content or modifications. Beyond the character DLC obviously. I just find that fascinating and it shows you can't win no matter what you do. If they were actively balancing the game and modifying characters, you'd have people complaining that they're not letting things "settle enough" too. Particularly with Capcom Cup on the line in just a few weeks.

[@mfahy9047]

I think part of it is that some pro's and content creators have been playing SF6 for maybe 6 months longer than most people. Between beta's and demo access etc. Add to that stuff like input issues and capcoms crappy pricing habits of late and i understand the frustration. Still, personally would wait it out and assess the season as a whole

[@claytonclaymagic]

i always felt that no balancing was a big mistake, ken and jp ran me off the game i aint play in months and it seems like i wont be playing for afew more sadly

[@ripgasbaron9716]

Since launch I've been on the side that finds this ideia absurd. The problem is that we say "Almost a year for balance changes is ridiculous" And they read "Not releasing a balance patch literally every week is ridiculous" Every 3 months/DLC character would have been good, even because SF6 is already in a considerable good spot balance-wise, with only a few characters needing severe changes

[@alexlovehall7796]

I agree. Gamers are very volitile and don’t know what they want

[@nahuel3433]

Max specifically I'm pretty sure said that he would've liked it was more like half a year rather than close to a full year.

[@TokyoAqua78]

They made him muuuuuch cooler than in SFV. I wanted to say who needs Ed again man, but now that i see him. I like him. Gonna play him till Akuma arrives.

[@mfahy9047]

I wonder if world tour had an influence on adding motion inputs, since they determine which moves can/can't be equiped together

[@MeanieBean]

He has moves reminiscent of the 4 kings of boxing. Hearns flicker jab, Ali shuffle's and the punch wave he does is like Sugar Ray Leonard, that grab where he locks an arm to punch with the free one I figure it's the closest to Roberto, and then the generalness of Hagle. I am a dudley fan too and i wanted him to join SF6 cast, but man if he doesn't i am more than happy with Ed

@@cashordeals3672 Fantastic to see more people learning art, might sound cliche, but as long as you're having fun doing it then you'll learn and improve a lot. If you feel intimidated by practicing art with those game franchises you can also go for simple shapes before trying drawing more complex art styles. Drawing Skullgirls characters is good for practice since their shapes are very noticeable (squares, triangles, circles) and gives you an idea on how to use them for certain kind of bodies and personalities on characters, and of course there's the philosophy of color but that's another world on its own that you'll have to learn later.

Street Fighter has had the best DLC characters by miles for years now. It's actually astounding they never mis-step

[@kamenrangerzeo8251]

They definitely gave Ed a lot more personality from his time from Street fighter V. Even when I was looking at the trailer myself I could tell his play style is definitely different for one he’s using his psycho powers like a scorpion spear move where he grabs you and pulls you close to do a lot more combo damage. Then his finisher is that he basically turns you into a human punching bag and beat you down even more before eventually cutting your strings. His alternate costume definitely fits his motif since he was trained by balrog. 🤔 This does bring up one question though since he’s has some elements of a boxer type fighter does that mean that they’re secretly hinting at Dudley’s possible return? And his stage that he has seems to me that it’s leading towards another possible return of shadowlaw or least one of its remnants that JP is obviously using to enhance his own pyscho abilities.

[@Steelgrey666]

He was taught by Balrog how to box and went on to compete officially in boxing. So i doubt it's a hint at Dudley to that. Balrog and Ed even had a official match with Balrog finally returning to the sport for real as an official boxer. Just from the angle they are going for here, it looks like Ed dropped his boxing career to pursue JP and the other leads.
