The Mythical Predator Steps on the Cage

Terry Bogard, nicknamed the “Legendary Wolf,” is one more character that has a lot of history back in the fighting games universe. Debuting in 1991’s Fatal Fury: Terry Bogard, one of the main characters in the SNK’s fighting game series, King of Fighters, gained much popularity due to his Dojo and his rough looking charm. His Hey are you all right Buster Wolf that he always says has become such a catchphrase.

This way, with his inclusion in Street Fighter 6, gamers will be able to enjoy a mix of the old and new, in terms of gameplay strategies. Specifically, Terry’s Power Wave, Rising Tackle, and Burn Knuckle moves are unlikely to lose their aesthetics when translated to Street Fighter 6 from King of Fighters. Some of the familiar elements will be necessary in ensuring Terry becomes comfortable within the Street Fighter environment.

What to Expect in Gameplay.

Terry is a combination of strong attacks and useful special moves due to which he is a dangerous opponent for any Street Fighter 6 character. Here’s a breakdown of what players can expect:

Power Wave

A ranged weapon that can push map pressure opponents from afar.

Rising Tackle

Essentially, the Mole auntir is ideal for the purpose of telegraphing and answering jump-ins.

Burn Knuckle

A swift moving brawl that can reduce the distance between Terry and his opponent in a rather short time.

Crack Shoot

An overhead attack that can be used in any part of the stage to get past your opponent’s crouching guard.

In Street Fighter 6, there must be some changes to match the sentiment of such combos, maneuvers, and strikes along with the Drive System. Combos and strategies were mentioned by players as things that they can hope to find new in Terry’s versatile move set.

Advantages on the Competitive Structure

It is believed that the inclusion of Terry Bogard to the roster will make a massive difference at the level of competition. Street Fighter 6 has already been described as a deep and balanced title, and by including a character such as Terry with a back story such as his, the game will have even more depth strategically and be more exciting overall.

The tournament players will have to limitlessly learn how to circumvent Terry’s play style as well as how to include Terry as part of their own strategies. This should cause the meta to shift and Terry mains who were never present in the rankings may now climb the ranks and play at the higher level.
