Street Fighter IV Remix/E. Honda

Overview Combos Matchups Strategy

Introduction

Honda went down the wrong alley and was offered the forbidden chanko stew that gives you power at a dark price. He has become a regular.

E. Honda is an extremely unusual grappler. While many grapplers focus solely on strike/throw mixups, Honda comes with a hoverdash instead of a normal dash. This hoverdash can be cancelled into air normals, allowing Honda to create fast overheads or fake into lows or grabs easily. This strange mixup game is backed up by an even more unique tool among grapplers, 236K Stomp.. This is a seismo-esque projectile, where the version dictates the location of the hitbox. Honda can cancel this stomp into his hoverdash, allowing for powerful combos or unique punishes.

Honda excels up close with his aforementioned mixup potential, where he can threaten overheads from hoverdash or empty hoverdash lows. His standard pressure is still strong however thanks to 6MP, a two hit plus on block normal which can be cancelled into off normals and into specials. His damage is extremely high thanks to 236K working as a launcher and his ability to relaunch with 6HP, and all combos can end in a hard knockdown with j.214K Sumo Smash.

Honda can struggle somewhat in neutral, as while he has great pokes to control the ground, he's lacking in strong anti-airs to dissuade jumping. j.2MP, 5HK, 6HP, and 236P can all work as anti-airs, but fill different niches, forcing him to decide in the moment and punishing him should he be wrong. j.2MP requires you to be airborne, 5HK has a hurtbox extension, 6HP has a lot of startup and recovery, and 236P is extremely consistent but very low reward. Honda also struggles in mobility, as his hoverdash replaces a standard dash, and unlike his hoverdash twin Yun he lacks the top tier walkspeed to make up for it.

If you want a character who steamrolls with flashy combos and unique offense made of hoverdash mixups on oki and sustained plus frames on offense, with the threat of massive damage behind them all, Honda is a great pick to play.
