Enter Terry Bogard, the Legendary Wolf of South Town, one of the most recognizable and beloved characters in the fighting game genre. He is exceptionally strong and rewarding to play, and has tons of combos that enable him to express himself to his fullest, dealing large amounts of damage with ease!

Terry Bogard Overview

Terry Bogard is a powerhouse of a character in Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves. While he is relatively heavier feeling than most of the cast, it doesn't matter too much, as his excellent toolkit and damage output more than make up for it. He may not be as swift as a Rock Howard, but he can still hold his own without breaking a sweat.

He has excellent Counter Hit potential and has access to solid anti-airs, allowing him to control the pace of the match reasonably well. His pokes and neutral tools are very good and provide him just enough for him to confirm the hit and launch into a devastating combo for massive damage. Terry has more than enough at his disposal to consistently win the neutral game and drive the opposition to the corner.

If his movement isn't a dealbreaker for you, then we strongly recommend giving Terry a whirl, as he is incredibly fun and rewarding to play. While his combos can be a bit on the challenging side of things at times, he is still a solid pick for newcomers and veterans alike. However, you must still learn how to implement Feints and Brakes, or his toolkit will be underwhelming, as he relies on them for his more devastating combos!

Terry Bogard Tips And Tricks

Aside from the wealth of information provided above that makes Terry Bogard tick in battle, we wanted to offer a few more tips and tricks that can help you elevate your play with him. Terry's neutral and anti-air game is robust, as we covered earlier, but this is just one part of the formula, since his main goal is to get his opponent into the corner.

And, if he manages to do this, Terry will be able to keep his opponent pinned down with suffocating amounts of pressure,Counter Hit baits, and more, making him one of the deadliest characters in the game. Once you bully your opposition into the corner with Terry's excellent normals and neutral tools, you can turn up the heat and begin trying to bait your opponent into making a mistake.

Since you can Feint his Power Wave (⬇️↘️➡️ LP/HP) and Burning Knuckle (214 LP/HP) actions, you can condition your opponent by utilizing these moves to keep them pinned, only to Feint it and go into another action if they try to jump out of the corner to escape, which can lead to massive damage if you land a Counter Hit and go directly into a combo.

Pairing this with his fantastic pokes and frame trap tools, Terry can quickly Overheat his opponents if they turtle for too long, forcing them to try and make a move to escape, where his excellent anti-airs or other devastating actions can come into play. He's a very solid all-rounder and has the combos and damage output to prove it!
