EX Terry is a character with tools for every distance, like a fireball for long distances and solid pokes for midrange, but close up is where he shines. He has great confirms from both lows and jump-ins, a mix of frametraps and true blockstrings, and great combo damage. One of his best aspects is that his go-to strings are good combos on hit and safe blockstrings/frametraps on block, letting him autopilot his way through. With Extra mode meter, he also gets access to some very damaging Quick MAX combos that make him a lot scarier. His weaknesses include fairly weak anti-airing options, and a lack of mixups outside of the general system tools. | |||

Introduction
EX Terry is a character with tools for every distance, like a fireball for long distances and solid pokes for midrange, but close up is where he shines. He has great confirms from both lows and jump-ins, a mix of frametraps and true blockstrings, and great combo damage. One of his best aspects is that his go-to strings are good combos on hit and safe blockstrings/frametraps on block, letting him autopilot his way through. With Extra mode meter, he also gets access to some very damaging Quick MAX combos that make him a lot scarier. His weaknesses include fairly weak anti-airing options, and a lack of mixups outside of the general system tools.

Special Moves
Burning Knuckles: qcb+A/C
- A dash punch. A version goes a short distance and C version goes fullscreen.

- Good zoning and pressure tool, as it's safe on block.
- Can be hopped over.
- Has a deadzone right in front of EX Terry.
- Moves with low invincibility can go through the projectile.
Round Wave: dp+A/C
- A close-ranged stationary projectile.
- On hit and block it's special- and super-cancelable, so you can use it to extend pressure or combos.
- Long startup and recovery, making it very punishable on whiff since you can't cancel it into something safe.
- Also very punishable on block and hit if you don't cancel it into anything.
Crack Shot: qcb+B/D
- An arching kick. B version travels shorter and lower down than the D version.
- B version is a good preemptive anti-air, and can be fairly safe on block if spaced.
- B version will whiff on short crouchers.
- D version takes longer to come out, but is plus on block and does multiple hits.
- as an anti air D version hits higher up than B version.
- only the last hit of D version will hit short crouchers.
Fire Kick:hcf + B/D
- a sliding kick with two hits that hits low.
- the first hit of the sliding kick is special cancelable which means you can make some true blockstrings and frame traps when combined with his other specials.
- the second hit is only cancelable into his rising tackle.
- good move to cancel into both as a combo and on block as it has a lot of reach and comes out fast so you can combo even from further distances.
- unsafe on block unless the first hit is cancelled into qcf+A or qcb+B.
- when not cancelled it causes a juggleable state so you can do a j.D for a reset. if you just let the opponent fall it causes a soft knockdown.
Rising Tackle: d~u + A/C
- a big upwards travelling spinning kick. B version goes a shorter distance but comes out faster.
- B version has startup invincibility and can be used as a fast anti air.
- D version has startup + some active frame invincibility making it a good reversal.
- unsafe on block or whiff.
- Causes soft knockdown.
Desperation Moves
Power Geyser:: qcb, db, f + A/C
- a large energy wave in front of Terry.
- has a large range upwards and in front of Terry so it works great as an anti air.
- its large range also makes it easy to combo into from all of his super cancelable tools.
- has full startup invulnerability but none on the active frames so it can trade.
- causes soft knockdown.
- the Max version does 3 big power geysers in a row, each appearing in front of the last.
- does more damage but the last hit can whiff if the move was done too close to the corner.
- causes soft knockdown.
Combos
- cr.B cr.A cr.A df+C hcf+K d~u+C/ j.D
low confirm combo. the rising tackle finisher is for max damage and the j.D is for a reset.
- cr.B cr.A cr.A df+C qcbf+P
low confirm into super.
- (j.X) cl.C f+A hcf+K d~u+C/j.D
standard combo from a jumpin or a heavy starter. on a jumpin you need to go into f+A on the first hit of cl.C for the combo to work.
- (j.X) cl.C f+A qcb,f+P
simple super combo from a jumpin or heavy.
- cr.B cr.A cr.A df+C hcf+K ABC qcb,f+P
Low confirm into a extra mode quick max that allows a super to connect after the second hit of hcf+K
- (j.X) cl.C df+C hcf+K(1) qcb+D ABC cr.A df+C qcb,f+P
A quick max combo that works on standing opponents only as the qcb+D will whiff on crouchers. on a crossup starter you can replace the later cr.A with a cl.D for more damage.
