Desk’s Latest Video Shows Guile’s Transition from Family Man to Family Man Between SFIV and SFV

As always, we can expect Desk to break down every intricate mechanic of a game at an alarming pace, and Street Fighter V is no exception. With his sights set on Guile, he now has a video giving us a side-by-side comparison of Guile’s Street Fighter IV iteration with what the character is currently in Street Fighter V. The results, when considering how different many characters are from their SFIV versions, may actually be surprising.

Several of Guile’s combos between the games remain barely untouched, with a few minor differences, such as substituting V-Trigger cancels for EX FADCs, and crush counters for Focus Attacks. Even the damage of each combo remains relatively unchanged, with the key differences being individual move damage. While not bothering to do full comparisons of his normals–which could be discovered by checking each move’s individual frame data on your own–Desk did take special note to compare the travel speed of all versions of his Sonic Booms, which again showed very little change.

If you are a Street Fighter IV Guile player on the fence about whether you should return to your favorite family man after a brief sojourn to other characters, the video below may influence your decision.
