Terry Bogard from Fatal Fury probably wasn’t on the tip of many people’s tongues when it came to their dream Smash Bros. guest characters. But now that he’s here, what this brawler lacks in broad notoriety, he more than makes up for with his mechanically dense gameplay. He’s one of the most challenging, but also one of the most fun and satisfying characters in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate to date.
There’s a lot that’s special about Terry, but perhaps most notable is the fact that he has five special moves instead of four, each of which has multiple versions. There are also two super moves that he only gets access too once he’s at 100% damage or higher, a Ryu-style lock-on that always keeps him facing his opponent, and the unique ability to special cancel, which is a holdover from his traditional 2D-fighting-game roots.
