Street Fighter IV/Gouken

From SuperCombo Wiki

Introduction

Gouken is a balanced character with tools to shut down many common character types, including charge & shotokan characters. He is best played by someone who can consistently predict his opponent's next move based on their prior patterns. Lacking any non-EX specials with fast startup or invincibility frames, he has a weak game when waking up, and his worst matchups are against characters with many safe or armor-breaking moves like Dictator and Boxer. His combos are fricking stupendous, and can sometimes halve an opponent's life with just a single EX bar. Also, he's old. Like older than the hills.
