What makes Ed especially unique is how players perform his special moves. His special moves have simple inputs; they only require simultaneous button presses, repeatedly pressing a button, or holding down a button. Only Ed's Critical Art is done by inputting a traditional motion.

He looks fun. Good mix between both Rog and Bison.

 

[Lulubop]

YESSSS FUCK

 

[Guymelef]

Don't like the look.
Really like the moveset.

 

[MadLaughter]

Enough people at Capcom were willing to greenlight that hat.

 

[JayEH]

Holy shit he looks awesome. New main.

 

[bizzarewars]

Woah, psycho boxer. I like the look. Plus, those command grabs were sick.

 

[LelouchViBritannia]

looks like a nash/balrog mod fused.

 

[Brazil]

Dude looks freaking awesome. I love the concept behind the character.

Cue people complaining he's not Sagat or whatever.

 

[Sinatar]

Ed's been hitting the gym, jesus.

 

[gundamkyoukai]

Looks like he could be fun .

Don't care about V after the first week or two, but great move set and nice super.

[Ducktail]

I like his costume and he seems fun to play as.

I was expecting something much worse.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Pretty hype trailer. I can't wait!

 

[Spaced Harrier]

Costume is awful. Like really really bad.

Move set seems good.

Wonder if he has charge inputs?

 

[JayEH]

Just get rid of the hat and it's a great design. I'll just buy the hood costume.

[Mesoian]

Take off that silly ass hat.

 

[jett]

I see what you're doing Capcom.

He has an interesting moveset. Will def give him a try during the beta.

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Moveset looks pretty cool.

Interesting.

EDIT: Costumes

[Numb]

Went from baby eminem to fist of the north star swole in 2 months

 

[Guymelef]

 

[Raylan Targaryen]

In before everyone says new main then drops him after a week

 

[Crayon]

It's kolin all over again. Iffy design, sick moves.

 

[Gradly]

And there is a hoodie costume too and it looks nice

Copied from the other thread

 

[NoctisVsStar]

3rd strike-esque hip hop
V trigger ball like decapre

🤔

 

[B.O.O.M]

He looks great. Imagine what he would be like if he could see with both his eyes

 

[Solidus187]

His play-style actually looks pretty unique, hopefully he's not so low-tier that we never see people use him. I'm still not over that default costume though... yeesh.

 

[wamberz1]

Yesssss, was hoping hoodie would be an alternate.

 

[Skilletor]

Ed looks like every white boxing villain in every chinese martial arts film.

I fucking love it.

 

[BadWolf]

From the blog:

Since Balrog raised Ed, his fighting is centered on boxing but since he carries M. Bison’s genes, his fighting style is enhanced by Psycho Power.

Sounds like Capcom wanted their own version of Rock Howard, guess this is the closest thing for Bison to getting a son.

 

[MrCarter]

He looks GREAT. I really like how he fuses boxing with psycho power.

Story mode and Battle costume looks dope too.

WTF??

Ed has THE GENE

making LTG proud

You're in luck besides his super he has no traditional inputs. All his attacks are done by pressing or holding down buttons

 

[Tyaren]

His default outfit looks pretty dumb imo, especially that hat and cape. I guess his original hoodie outfit will be an alt?

Edit: Ah, saw the images of his alt just now.

It would be pretty funny if a hybrid of 2 charge characters wasn't a charge character.

Better off Ed
