– A Month Before E3 and What Do We Have?

Over the years we at MMORPG have attended countless game shows. Every one of them is unique and has surprises that we try our hardest to share with fans. This year however, on the heels of a very strong PAX East we are entering the E3 territory and many of the big game reveals do not seem like they are on the horizon. How will E3 play out in a few months is anyone’s guess, but here are a few theories for you to consider.

Check out the unique inputs of Street Fighter V newcomer Ed’s moves

One of the unique things about Street Fighter V’s upcoming new character Ed is the unique way in which his special moves are performed, at least for the Street Fighter series. Somewhat similar to Nelson from the The King of Fighters XIV, Ed uses only a combination of button inputs to execute. This has brought about questions of what exactly these inputs are, and how certain things–such as EX versions–will be handled.

For those wondering about these things, wonder no more, as Capcom has released Ed’s command list on the official Street Fighter V website.

One of the interesting things that can be seen in the movelist is how only three of Ed’s moves have EX versions. One of these, Psycho Upper, requires all three punch buttons to be pressed to activate the EX version (as confirmed by Capcom’s Harrison over reddit). This, as well as the other inputs in the list, should make Ed an interesting (and maybe challenging) character to play, especially for pad players.

For those looking forward to try these out, Ed will be playable in the upcoming beta for Street Fighter V’s next round of balance changes. In the meantime, here are some new screenshots of Ed.
