If you are not aware, Justin Wong demoed all three 3rd Strike characters that are in SSF4.
Here my takes on all three characters:
Makoto: I'm impressed at her game still. She's still powerful, but has a slightly new way of use with her Buff Super and the Ultras now. Some moves of hers aren't as abusive while some are better. I think she will be very popular because of this and seeing a buffed Ultra looks pretty scary.
Dudley: Don't really know until I play, but from seeing this I actually like what they did to him in SSF4. His Target Combos are still great and give him a good mixup with also adding some new ones for him. His "Hurricane kick" is interesting. I can see this being used since now Dudley has a way of getting someone off him. The combos in the vid are great and I can't wait to see what other things you can do with him in the upcoming game. If his game becomes really good we can see him used alot as well.
Ibuki: Now I never played with, but I'm impressed. In every SF3 game she has been getting changes and changes so I did expect that in this game. Giving her the Super Jump is very helpful and I think this will allow her to be good, if not better, than C. Viper. Ibuki is automatically going to get popular by C. Viper and other players. Because of this though, she'll be a hard character to learn, but with practice people will learn. Though I don't think she'll be as hard to play as like Viper due to her having those canceled Seismic Hammer and such.
What is your take on this?
