''Fatal Fury'''s legendary Hungry Wolf, Terry Bogard, is not one to miss out on a King of Fighters tournament, and he always comes back a bit different from the last. In The King of Fighters XV, Terry bears a close resemblance to his '98 iteration, featuring an all-motion input moveset (dropping the charge motion for his DP), and the return of his Power Dunk (623K[K]) leaping punch, the heavy variant being armored so he can muscle through zoning attempts. Terry's light Power Charge (426B) is also cancellable into Rising Tackle (623P[P]) or Power Dunk, leading to high damage combos or okizeme.
One of the most recognizable characters in fighting games, ''Fatal Fury'''s own Legendary Wolf, Terry Bogard, is a well-rounded brawler with an emphasis on pressure and midrange presence. Terry excels at closing the gap between him and his opponent with his far-reaching specials and pokes, with very high damage and guard-crushing potential once he gets in.
Terry also has an assortment of specials that are safe on block, such as his '''EX''' Power Wave (236AC), a Burning Knuckle (214P) or heavy Power Charge (426D) from a distance, and his Crack Shoot (214B/D), which ranges from -2 to -1 on block, allowing him to launch a frightening offense that can obliterate guard meter.
Terry plays a relatively simple gameplan, which is to get in and try not to get pushed out. He has numerous solid buttons in his standing normals, all of which have great reach; his Back Knuckle (6A) command normal is also decent as a neutral poke. Both his grounded and aerial blowback have excellent range and dodge low attacks, which makes them great for approaches. He even has a projectile in Power Wave (236P[P]), which he can use for pressure as well as a niche zoning tool. And as always, he has a reliable anti-air in Rising Tackle which, after several years, is once again a DP motion which allows Terry to consistently punish jump-in attempts. Rising Upper (3C), an extender for his light attacks, also works well in this regard.
Terry isn't without his flaws, of course. As his nickname may imply, Terry isn't at his strongest unless he has plenty of meter to burn. His only overhead is locked behind EX, so he has no way to initiate a highly-damaging combo with an overhead, not to mention without meter. And while many of Terry's standing normals have a lot of range, they're all only super cancellable, so he'll need 2 bars to do any real damage with them. For these reasons, Terry is typically placed in the mid or anchor position, where he has the meter to initiate combos that do plenty of damage to both the opponent's life bar and their guard meter.
Terry's pressure can be stifling if properly spaced. Burning Knuckle (214P[P]) is hugely unsafe on paper, but if throw out from further rages it becomes a powerful tool for frame trapping and space trapping. His heavy Power Charge (426D) is +2 on block at max range with high pushback, making it great for baiting out whiff punishes. '''EX''' Power Wave is +5 on block at point blank and does massive guard damage, which makes it great for extending pressure strings or breaking guard. Lastly, his Crack Shoot (214K[K]) is a decent approach tool, with the '''EX''' version being a fast overhead at 20 frames. All of these options make Terry a nuisance at any range for opponents looking for openings or gaps in Terry's pressure.
If you're new to KOF, know Terry from his variety of other appearances, or want to deal big damage and make a comeback, Terry is a great choice for you.
But the real threat is Terry's damage. With command normal extensions for both his light and heavy attacks as well as the ability to cancel his light Power Charge into Rising Tackle or Power Dunk (623K[K]), Terry can easily take a solid chunk out of the opponent's lifebar without any resources. But once Terry has a bar or more, he becomes hugely threatening. Terry is already a very meter-efficient character thanks to the solid reward he gets off his Shatter Strike as well as his Power Charge cancels, but this in itself makes his meter-dumping capabilities incredibly powerful. In a similar vein to Kyo Kusanagi, Terry can perform Power Geyser loops in the corner with the right execution, which overall makes him a devastating offensive character with great meter efficiency.
It should be noted, however, that beyond his damage and guard-crushing potential, Terry has no real gimmicks. Terry lacks crossups and an overhead he can combo off of, which makes it difficult for Terry to open up defensive opponents. At long range, it's hard for Terry to contest the opponent, especially since his only zoning option is a grounded fireball, which makes it easy to dodge. Terry is also significantly weaker without resources. Without meter, Terry can't threaten opponents with safe guard breaks or surprise overheads and his most important attribute, his incredibly high damage.
Overall, Terry is a simple but solid character with unique but effective space control. He's welcoming for beginners, but still fleshed-out enough to work well in the hands of more seasoned players who are aware of their spacing. If you're willing to handle being weaker without meter and want to make big comebacks with resources, then give Terry a shot.

* '''Great Metered Offense''': Due to his incredible guard damage with EX Power Wave coupled with his relative safety, Terry can establish a terrifying offense game that can quickly turn into unavoidable guardbreak setups against opponents lacking meter or the reactions for the situation. While he relies heavily on meter to keep his offense strong, there's few things as frightening or common as a well-stocked Anchor Terry.

Terry's iconic exploding punch super. Doesn't have a very tall hitbox (won't connect after Rising Tackle except in the corner) but does go relatively far.
Buster Wolf has much better horizontal range than Power Geyser, but its vertical hitbox is smaller and will whiff after Rising Tackle. It also has slightly lower damage, making it less optimal for most scenarios.
After their adopted father and martial arts master Jeff Bogard was cruelly assassinated by crime lord Geese Howard, Terry and his brother Andy Bogard set off on a mission for revenge where they would travel the world learning various fighting styles. Terry’s bright personality and acts of kindness solidified him in the eyes of children on the streets as a sort of hero.
One of the most recognizable characters in fighting games, Fatal Fury's own Legendary Wolf, Terry Bogard, is a well-rounded brawler with an emphasis on pressure and midrange presence. Terry excels at closing the gap between him and his opponent with his far-reaching specials and pokes, with very high damage and guard-crushing potential once he gets in.
Terry plays a relatively simple gameplan, which is to get in and try not to get pushed out. He has numerous solid buttons in his standing normals, all of which have great reach; his Back Knuckle (6A) command normal is also decent as a neutral poke. Both his grounded and aerial blowback have excellent range and dodge low attacks, which makes them great for approaches. He even has a projectile in Power Wave (236P[P]), which he can use for pressure as well as a niche zoning tool. And as always, he has a reliable anti-air in Rising Tackle which, after several years, is once again a DP motion which allows Terry to consistently punish jump-in attempts. Rising Upper (3C), an extender for his light attacks, also works well in this regard.
Terry's pressure can be stifling if properly spaced. Burning Knuckle (214P[P]) is hugely unsafe on paper, but if throw out from further rages it becomes a powerful tool for frame trapping and space trapping. His heavy Power Charge (426D) is +2 on block at max range with high pushback, making it great for baiting out whiff punishes. EX Power Wave is +5 on block at point blank and does massive guard damage, which makes it great for extending pressure strings or breaking guard. Lastly, his Crack Shoot (214K[K]) is a decent approach tool, with the EX version being a fast overhead at 20 frames. All of these options make Terry a nuisance at any range for opponents looking for openings or gaps in Terry's pressure.
But the real threat is Terry's damage. With command normal extensions for both his light and heavy attacks as well as the ability to cancel his light Power Charge into Rising Tackle or Power Dunk (623K[K]), Terry can easily take a solid chunk out of the opponent's lifebar without any resources. But once Terry has a bar or more, he becomes hugely threatening. Terry is already a very meter-efficient character thanks to the solid reward he gets off his Shatter Strike as well as his Power Charge cancels, but this in itself makes his meter-dumping capabilities incredibly powerful. In a similar vein to Kyo Kusanagi, Terry can perform Power Geyser loops in the corner with the right execution, which overall makes him a devastating offensive character with great meter efficiency.
It should be noted, however, that beyond his damage and guard-crushing potential, Terry has no real gimmicks. Terry lacks crossups and an overhead he can combo off of, which makes it difficult for Terry to open up defensive opponents. At long range, it's hard for Terry to contest the opponent, especially since his only zoning option is a grounded fireball, which makes it easy to dodge. Terry is also significantly weaker without resources. Without meter, Terry can't threaten opponents with safe guard breaks or surprise overheads and his most important attribute, his incredibly high damage.
Overall, Terry is a simple but solid character with unique but effective space control. He's welcoming for beginners, but still fleshed-out enough to work well in the hands of more seasoned players who are aware of their spacing. If you're willing to handle being weaker without meter and want to make big comebacks with resources, then give Terry a shot.
Terry Bogard is a versatile and simple character who spends meter for big damage.
Pros
Cons
Easy: Terry is very easy to understand and versatile, making him great for any team. He has a large toolkit, easy confirms off of heavies, and relatively simple inputs. His basic BnB combos can be learnt in seconds.
Exceptional Metered Damage: Both of Terry's supers deal fantastic damage, especially the MAX versions. Even better, both of his supers are designed to be used in conjunction with each other and easily flow into his Climax, meaning Terry can threaten a massive meter dump off of any hit. Terry has such high damage potential with meter that he can ToD off of an anti-air DP.
Large and Safe Toolset: Terry has it all- a fireball, a DP, an EX overhead, two screen-crossing moves and an armored lunge for beating projectiles. Best of all, many of his tools are surprisingly safe on block when done at a distance, such as 214C. Terry can also spend meter to make himself plus in many scenarios, such as 236AC.
Great Metered Offense: Due to his incredible guard damage with EX Power Wave coupled with his relative safety, Terry can establish a terrifying offense game that can quickly turn into unavoidable guardbreak setups against opponents lacking meter or the reactions for the situation. While he relies heavily on meter to keep his offense strong, there's few things as frightening or common as a well-stocked Anchor Terry.
Hungry for Meter: Terry needs meter for his biggest damage potential and safest pressure. While Terry has many uses for his meterless tools, he really shines with easy access to EX and supers. He also tends not to build much meter back either, making it difficult to accrue his stock back once he's blown it.
Meterless Mixup: Can struggle to effectively open up opponents without meter, lacking meterless overheads and only one low he can combo from, meaning smart use of shorthops is very important.
Awkward Light Confirms: Canceling into Terry's specials from lights (besides Power Dunk and Rising Tackle) requires canceling into Rising Upper (3C), as his specials otherwise start up too slowly to cancel from lights. This means that Terry requires more spatial awareness than other characters.
Committal Footsies: Some of Terry's farthest-reaching normals, such as his 5B and 5C, are only super-cancelable. This means that Terry has to spend a lot of meter to convert stray hits into any meaningful damage, which isn't worth the cost.

Whiffs on crouchers at range.
Shifts Terry forward slightly if pressed again before recovery ends.
With available meter, Far D becomes a dangerous quick max option due to its huge range and low damage scaling from being a heavy attack. Learning to hit confirm this attack into quick max is valuable for Terry.
Very powerful high kick that excels at anti-airing and controlling neutral, just barely whiffing at round start.

Great air-to-air: fast, good horizontal range, and has a good amount of active frames.
You can stick this out early during a forward hop to pre-emptively check jumps
This move whiffs completely on crouching opponents, so be mindful about the spacing when using this move so you don't whiff in front of your opponent and eat a 2B punish.

Great at crossing up opponents from a full jump or superjump. One of Terry's main mix-up options at midscreen
Note: j.D from a hop or hyperhop will not cross up most crouching opponents (except really large crouchers such as Antonov or Rugal), so be careful not to accidentally hop over your opponent during your pressure,

Somewhat slow, but has a big hitbox with a lot of horizontal range and can be timed to not whiff against crouching opponents (use when Terry reaches the top of his hop height)
Can function as both an air-to-ground and an air-to-air
Good for rushing your opponent down, or putting out a big hitbox to wall them out in neutral

Terry punches the ground, generating a shockwave that travels across the screen.
EX version connects into Buster Wolf whenever it hits.
Power Wave is Terry's signature projectile. Power Wave is quite mediocre as a zoning option due to its slow startup and recovery, and as a ground-based projectile, it's quite easy to jump over. For these reasons, Power Wave is most effective at midrange as a blockstring ender, where it would be hard for the opponent to punish.
The EX version, meanwhile, is a very powerful pressure tool. It is +5 on block at point-blank range and depletes around 17% of the opponent's guard bar. In certain blockstrings, Terry can destroy around 50% of the opponent's guard bar until he's pushed out of range. On hit, it puts the opponent into decently long hitstun before launching, allowing Terry to combo into Buster Wolf almost wherever it connects.

Terry briefly pauses before launching forwards with a straight punch.
Unsafe on block at point blank, but is plus at max range.
Burning Knuckle is Terry's most straightforward combo ender. It has decent damage and oki on hit and is great for basic combos, including super cancels. While relatively unsafe at point blank, Burning Knuckle's frame advantage increases at further ranges and is plus on block at max range. At its furthest range, 214C is one of the most plus-on-block non-projectile moves in the game and cannot be punished except by command grabs.
214A: Soft knockdown. Combos from heavies and 3C.
214C: Exactly one frame too slow to combo from heavies. Only combos from crumples, such as 41236BD. Sliding hard knockdown.
214AC: Sliding hard knockdown. Combos from heavies and 3C.

Terry flips forward with an outstretched leg, striking opponents repeatedly as he flies forwards.
Slightly minus on block.
Only the EX version is a true overhead.
214D hits only twice on grounded opponents. The third hit only lands if the opponent is airborne.
Crack Shoot isn't plus, but is one of the safest moves Terry can throw out without having to spend meter. On hit its attributes are mediocre; it doesn't knock down or super cancel, leaves the opponent standing with little to no advantage, and scales with its own hits, making it a very poor combo tool in general. Its best use is as a general approach and pressure tool.
The EX version is Terry's only overhead, and it's quite safe for an overhead at -2 on block. It's also one of the faster overheads in the game at 20 frames of startup, which also means Terry can combo into it. Despite this, its hit reward is middling. It causes a soft knockdown on hit and cannot be followed up with anything, making it impossible for Terry to get any good reward off of it.

Reversal/anti-air.
A version is invulnerable to air-attacks.
C & EX versions have full invulnerability.
The reversal DP, a staple part of any poster boy's toolkit. Rising Tackle is great combo ender, especially when paired with 426B for extra damage.
Note: Rising Tackle can be canceled into Power Geyser by performing the DP input as 632146P. Performing 236P right after will cause Power Geyser to come out.

426BD crumples, although 236CD is typically a better option if Terry has at least one bar.
The second hit of 623K followups will whiff if Terry previously used 623BD in the combo.
Terry performs a low-angled shoulder charge. Power Charge has a decent amount of utility; the light version can cancel into 623P or 623K, while the heavy version can be used to create frame traps or spacing traps, depending on Terry's distance from the opponent.
Below are the followups for 426B. The followups allow Terry to build just under 0.5 bars, which is great for combos involving meter.
623A: Possibly worst option. Lowest damage.
623B: Higher damage, and leads to a hard knockdown. Good oki.
623C: Best option if you want to do Power Geyser as a combo ender. Gives Terry a massive amount of meter on hit.
623D: Highest damage, but whiffs outside of the corner.

This move hits before leaving the ground and again on the way down. NOT on the way up.
EX version hits opponents laying on the ground after a hard knockdown (a.k.a. OTG).
Terry leaps into the air with a knee strike before slamming back down into the ground with a straight punch. This is Terry's fastest move that can cause a hard knockdown meterless, but it has rather mediocre range and has a tendency to whiff if 6A and 3C are used from normals. Like Rising Tackle, it is one of Terry's only specials that can combo from lights without using 3C.

Fully invincible projectile super that doesn't go very far.
Too slow to reliably work as a reversal, but can be tricky to punish.
Preferable over Buster Wolf as a combo ender in almost all scenarios due to its massive hitbox. Also does better damage.
Terry punches the ground, creating a stationary, but highly powerful version of Power Wave. Similar to Kyo Kusanagi, Terry can perform Power Geyser loops in the corner with 41236B, but this requires a delay in the followup 632146P, so it is a bit finicky.

Super that goes near full screen in the blink of an eye.
MAX version has projectile invulnerability and goes full screen, beats pretty much any projectile, including a Maxima laser.
