Punk recently made some big moves at Tampa Never Sleeps this past weekend by showing off Ed's potential at a large tournament - even going as far as using Ed to take down iDom in Loser's Finals. But does he really think Ed is the next broken character of the game? Kizzie Kay and Punkdagod break down his strengths and flaws in the Street Fighter 6 meta so far!

@@Xeltosstanding mp is fine, not every button needs to reach the moon. It really shines just flow charting off dr. Can go to jab to tick throw, can go into itself to frame trap. If you go with the frame trap you can Cr lk safe and cancel depending on block or hit. If it hits straight up on dr you get to go into hp. It's a really decent button, just not at all meant for whiff punishing. His jab need some more reach, maybe shave off some recovery on some mids to give him the chance to dp jumpers.

@AdamJorgensen 5 месяцев назад

Whether Ed is strong or not isn't a huge issue for me. I'm generally around the middle of the bell-curve when it comes to how well I do in FGs, which means that it's not really the characters which are the limiting factor. I'm enjoying playing Ed waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more than Manon who was the only other character that appealed so far. I managed to crawl up to Gold 5/Plat 1 with her where I proceeded to gatekeep myself at said level until I went back to playing other FGs for a bit XD As such, I'm super pleased with Ed, especially after the disappointment of AKI (Who I really wanted to enjoy but just could not get into playing, same story as Cammie). It's really nice when a character releases that you find reinvigorates your enjoyment of the game 🙂

@Agent_A_Graham 5 месяцев назад

It makes sense you enjoy boring Ed when you enjoyed Manon.

@Lamren 5 месяцев назад

It's not really about Ed being strong or not ultimately, but moreso that he has a lot of shortcomings that can make him frustrating/unfun to play. His combo routes are surprisingly straight forward without any sauce really, so it doesn't even feel that rewarding to put up with his issues.

I obviously respect Punk’s opinion, and I’m not saying he’s wrong, he may very well be correct. However in a recent video Broski said something that hit home, that Ed is such a complex character we’re talking months before anyone figures him properly. I don’t know where he will end up on the tier list, but i think a lot of new stuff is going to be found that may influence that.

@GenderNeutch 5 месяцев назад

Rashid is starting to shine after a couple months, given that we've even seen him progress quite far in Capcom Cup for examlpe. But I doubt AKI is going to get super strong without any further patches, and the first impressions of Ed don't seem to enthusiastic. Granted, that might change, given time, but I'm curious - what are everyone's thought on the strength of the DLC characters? As far as I'm aware, historically DLC characters used to be kinda OP (at least at first) in order to get people to buy the season passes. I don't doubt that Akuma turns out quite strong, but who knows. But I'm kinda surprised about the strength of the characters so far.

@Lexicon865 5 месяцев назад

I hope this ends with these three and that while I don't want every DLC to be OP, I hope from Akuma onwards they'd all be competent Because it'd feel weird if they eventually add say Poison or Dudley or Sagat and have them end up lackluster somehow

@topherick 5 месяцев назад

I'd be shocked if they don't buff his jab in the balance patch. If they make his rush projectile invulnerable, then he's going to be a big problem. I think the only DLC character that's not great is AKI, but thats because she feels a little underdeveloped. Rashid is fine. Ed is fine. Akuma is going to be ridiculous I'm sure.

@jayro792 5 месяцев назад

The players who know how to play AKI will tell you that she is strong. People need to learn or at least realise these unique type characters wont play how youd like them to be prepared to change your style to fit instead of saying they are trash or something.

@Digital.midori 5 месяцев назад

@@jayro792no they won’t tell you that. They’ll say she’s low mid tier at best. Theres only a few “strong” Aki players anyway. Her poison gimmick sucks, all her normals are short/stubby, few wakeup options, and her DI cancel buttons are bad

@SlaineReigns 5 месяцев назад

Honestly i feel like Ed could be strong. However that Jab makes him extremely incompetent in short ranges. That needs to be fixed imo, you cant even confirm his Blitz consistently with it. For a boxer that's just unacceptable imo.

@yuankun99 5 месяцев назад

Thank you Punk for telling the truth. I thought the same thing about Ed when I started to using him. He's fun to use if your opponent is not a experience player, but if your opponent is good, he'll know how to exploit all these Ed's weakness that you mentioned.

@berimb0l076 4 месяца назад

My gripe with ed is it feels like his hurtbox is there way before the attack happens with the flicker kick buttons, so someone throwing pokes out mid screen will beat the flickers most of the time

@NessOnett8 5 месяцев назад

I appreciate Punk saying the truth. Ed is not good. There's a small chance he could get good eventually when people "figure him out." But out of the gate, by the numbers, he's kinda awful. And I'm surprised some people are still saying he's strong. Guess that means I can look forward to buffs in the future, since I've been an Ed main for years and I love his gameplay, so I'm sticking with him. Just like...give me a better jab at least. Everything else I can live with. But that jab tho...for a BOXER?!?

@juffe_h1666 5 месяцев назад

Still a solid character tho there are worse 😅

@SlaineReigns 5 месяцев назад

My take on Ed is they really redeemed this character, both in looks and gameplay. I already loved how he played and look in sfv (he was my first char to pickup cuz he was easy. I started tail end of SFV), but IMO SF6 revitalized him for the majority of the people. His gameplay is the most unique in the game bar none and his fight style now is extremely cool to a lot of people due to him being a pure boxer. Strength-wise though, i feel like he can be strong, but his jabs are his number one downfall. Its ironic as well since he's a pure boxer, but he has the worst jab in the game. Hopefully Capcom fixes this though. Fingers crossed cuz he is my main along with Juri.

I hope that Ed gets a little more cohesive whenever we get our big update. I think he is the coolest character in the game, and definitely my main and who I've been waiting on for quite a while. I don't think he's bad at all, he's just not exceptional. He feels a little unfinished to me. It seems like there's a lot of ideas going on with his kit, but they just don't quite work. I wonder if he was rushed out. I also find it incredibly strange that his backsway is what it is. He has no follow-up out of it or anything, it just seems very odd. A huge missed opportunity.

@marcbraun5342 5 месяцев назад

I want to like him, I love his design and his animations, even his character and backstory, I want to play a boxer. On paper he's everything I wanted, even to the parts of his toolkit and how they are performed. But I can't make him work for me, it feels too clunky and I can't connect as much as I want. Some things are counterintuitive, that crouching hp isn't his normal anti air and that the medium flickers does the opposite when crouched. His moves seem to be very specific to the situation and the timing a bit too strict, stubby jabs, no overhead, only standing hk has good frames and that's one of the specific moves. I want to like and based on the character even would like to main him, I'm just not good playing him.

@Ryan-uu4tw 5 месяцев назад

I would have been angry if Ed came out, he was hands down the best character, and now everyone mains him… better off this way to start. Buffs and nerfs are on their way.

@saado99 5 месяцев назад

Summarizes everything I also felt about the character. Really fun, not easy and fun to use, but man the fact that hes so easy to jump in on, anti zoning tools really suck (Guile, dhalsim etc feels really hard), pressure game weak, prone to DI, terrible jabs, weak DR and also he didn't mention very weak DR normals also. Very bad pushback on the moves and frame advantage. I also really dislike his antiairs in general, for a character that's so easy to jump in on. So slow, hard to use, and also really bad against cross ups which makes it really easy to escape the corner against him. He does have strengths for sure though, his mid range actually is really good. Although like punk said, it's not that much better than other characters' normals like Luke, Chun Li, Ken, Juri etc. if not worse because again, not much reward (okay damage), big risk (jump/DI) and just in general awkward as hell. His lvl2 damage is actually really absurd honestly so he also has that going for him, but unless someone finds crazy use of it, Rashid's and JPs are definitely better.

I agreed with everything that Punk said about Ed. His mid range game is solid but it does has some flaws but a pretty good mid-range game character but what were the game devs thinking when they design his standing and crouching punch lol? Overall, Ed is my main character because he kind of has Balrog's move sets sprinkle with Dudley's furious punches and it's a blast pulling off a huge combo with his CA 2. It does take a lot work to get a lot of damage compare to some other characters like Ryu or Ken but damn it feels rewarding doing it though. I hope Capcom comes out with a patch to change up his light punches and make him a little faster but I'm enjoying him so far.

If you're a Dev, you get multiple chances to make a character stronger. You get one chance to make a character cool. Ed's first impression to the fanbase in SF5 was terrible. He was bland and boring and it stuck with the character throughout SF5's life cycle. I'm willing to bet that the Devs put all of their focus on making him cooler and changing public opinion on him (which is hard to do) and saved making him stronger for later patches.

Well said, this is legit the way to go imo, either way making DLC characters strong just so people will buy them is a cheap move & I respect capcom going with the best possible route for the DLC characters so far, tho I'm not too hopeful about Akuma, best they could do is make him strong but really risky to play.

My biggest complaint is he doesn’t feel like a boxer 😂 not that good up close and bad movement 🤷🏾‍♂️ still a cool character

What I like about Ed's up close game being so-so and him not ducking fireballs is that this leaves room for Dudley to come back! I hope season 2 is majority Third Strike characters like Dudley, Makoto and so on.

I agree slash kinda disagree with Punk. I agree because he's not top tier but I've been in the lab alot with Ed and from watching punk play with ed he's only using ed to about 50-60% of his full potential. The main thing is that he's only doing half combos and I know he only said he's been playing for a week but he obviously hasn't been in the lab enough because he's missing a good amount of damgage and corner carry opportunities in his combos. Also he hasn't found ed's meaty setups in the corner yet. I wouldn't care to comment something if he said "I know I don't know Ed's best combo routes yet but from what im doing right now his damage aint that good" but he just flat out said his damage is bad which is not true. I wanted to add that just shows how good Punk is as a player because he's basically winning with Ed off just pure fighting game skill/fundamentals not character skill/knowledge

I’m always on offense with Ed and it’s prolly why I’m 1400 Mr 😂. Glad things I feel are being said here, makes me feel allot better.

Both costumes, color 3 got the Boba Fett colors. Mostly green with accents of yellow and red. Easily favorite there. Kinda wish you could mix and match the outfits a little though. Not feeling the skinny jeans on costume 1 or the big gloves on 2. But either way it's fine. Gameplay: I have very mixed feelings on him. I think he feels like a worse Seth from SF5. His CR HP is his sweep, his CR HK is a high, his combos are similar, but you get punished for the very common muscle memory of target combo > QCF P since it'll whiff almost every time. You need to be doing blitz or flicker to finish combos, which is ok. but muscle memory messes that up a LOT for me. Similarly, his CR MK is also a high so you need to retrain muscle memory to do CR MP for any other character you would play. Making him intentionally opposite like that really doesn't do the character any favors, so to change his easier inputs on top of it just feels like a punishment to actual Ed players. And to put a further point on it, something that Broski had said was why change the kit? Why not make a new character if that's the route they wanted to go? Or else keep it similar and evolve it. Instead, he feels like a variant version of Seth to me, but missing some of his tools and not as good.

@TooSweaty7 5 месяцев назад

I feel ed would've made more sense.He's grabbing shadaloo and flipping it on its head and make it his own. Instead of some random dude named luke that they just dropped on us. Following neo shadaloo would be way better than following what story that luke has. Especially since shadaloo ties into the rest of the cast.

So ive been playing ed since launch and hes def not easy to play...but hes fun as hell...im a defensive player so his defensive playstyle fits me...i get more mileage out of whiff punishing with him using his flicker jabs or his standing HP if im close enuff, since u can drive rush out of them... ed is horrible if his backs in the corner...mid screen is where u want to be...doesnt have many options to open up opponents in the corner since he doesnt have an overhead However, he needs space...hes best midscreen...he doesnt really have anything defensively when HES in the corner since his dp cant be reliable...also, u can jump in on ed so easily if u wiff MOST of his moves because of the recovery...like punishing for being offensive...which is painful

@MrShinTensei 5 месяцев назад

@lickarcade 5 месяцев назад

What is happening with sf6 is Capcom is scared that rushdown/mixup archetypes are going to overwhelm, scare and frustrate players- so they make them intentionally weak and do trash damage (like Ed & Kimberly). But because drive rush makes EVERY character able to rush down and get plus frames- footsie/confirm characters like deejay/Ken/Luke become MONSTERS and are going to be hard to balance. Sf6 is a good game, but I have to say the latest balance patch attempt was too little too late. I’d love to see some real effort from Capcom, rather than just dangling fan favorite characters-like Akuma- after the game’s honeymoon phase. Lame way to generate hype.

@rickg8109 5 месяцев назад

I think character wise he’s a lot better than he was in V where I felt he was milk toast. I’m nowhere near as good as most folks but I’m glad to hear your opinions because that’s how I feel. I tried to use him like a boxer and got slaughtered. It’s only when I’m super defensive, (which isn’t my style) that I do O.K. I feel like he can be pretty good and now I’m hopeful for the next update, although I’m really hopeful to see Aki in the next update getting improved

He can also mix up his tether angle to catch jumpins, plus he has his command dash which can be used to whiff punish or GTFO. He's dangerous to jump in on

Lying to get your point across is funny. Not top 5. And he only had very few glaring weaknesses, compared to Ed who has a LOT. Not comparable.

@DeathDasein 5 месяцев назад

Slow. Low Damage. Bad buttons. Bad DP. Bad Jab. Almost no safe move. Very weak to DI. Bad DR. Hard to use and technical. He would be fine on launch where he could got away with gimmicks against scrubs, nowadays ppl are more aware about frame data and the game mechanics. Having said this I like this direction capcom took, I don't fancy broken chars like brain dead Luke.
