David Sirlin is back and he's going in depth on what players can expect from the rebalanced Dhalsim in Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo HD Remix. He can keep away, he can go on offense, and he’s got an answer for pretty much everything. On top of all that, he’s also pretty good at keeping some characters in a throw loop of repeated noogies. His throw range is so long that he can hit some characters just outside of their throw range, then noogie them. Considering all that Dhalsim is great at, he doesn’t need this throw abuse to win.
Dhalsim’s noogie (this hold with the medium punch button) now has shorter range. He can still attempt a throw trap, but only from close enough that the opponent can reverse it. The range on his fierce throw is unchanged (still far!) so he can still “cheap” into a fierce throw. Remember that the fierce throw tosses the opponent away so that Dhalsim cannot repeat the trap.
