They were impressed with the gameplay, but overall people are still disappointed with his inclusion, including people fearing that he might’ve replaced Dudley since he is a boxer focusing on speed
This is before the gameplay trailer! Before everyone ever talked about how much they didn't like his inclusion and how he was a wasted slot! Now people are on board after the gameplay trailer but before it is as Top had said.
@@DANCERcow I know a hand full of people who were looking forward to him when he was announced. And this is all I've been looking forward to when it comes to street fighter dlc
I actually think his design makes sense and fits while also being better than his previous design which felt over designed but going with a simpler urban boxer look works better for his character while also appearing to be more sickly than usual possibly due to the psycho power. I would have wanted other characters like Cody, Guy, Fei Long, or G but I can still appreciate his inclusion due to him having a strong importance in the story, his character, and the possibilities with his character.
I couldn’t even make it pst the 2 minute mark of this video. You just have a dislike of Ed and that’s cool but you’re not actually offering any insightful commentary beyond “edgy” or “he looks so emo”. Such a fall from grace of good content. Ed is a great welcomed edition and many people already feel better about his inclusion since the gameplay reveal. Rage baiting at its finest. Kudos Top Hat Frauding.
How would you know there is no insightful commentary if you self admittedly only watched the video for 2 minutes? Find me a video available online that gives a more in-depth look at Ed's lore...I'll wait.

@@Lifeless14 I see what youre saying but we should really retire the misuse of the word "boomer". Replace "boomer" with "older", and it makes more sense. Im probably a few years older than Top Hat and I dont agree with him at all. I honestly could care less if old characters come back. Do I want Dudley? You damn right! But I dont really care so as long as the characters are fun.
I didn't play Ed in SF5 but I find him to be quite interesting and there was room for him to grow. And sure enough it goes with him in SF6 where he has come to his own man and envelope all of the boxing traits with his use of psycho power he learn from his mentor Balrog.
Top Hat purposely makes controversial statements and content for more engagement nowadays. No one, absolutely no one, said they were disappointed about Ed's inclusion. In fact, folks were more intrigued about his redesign in appearance and movesets. The issue has always been his SFV ugly design and/or his lame name Ed.
I havent seen any hate comments under that trailer, hes actually pretty well received, imo He looks like he could be the most fun boxer street fighter has made
As echoed below, I disagree that Ed is unpopular or inclusion is a wrong choice. Could be he is not your choice, which is a fair opinion knowing there are far more exciting past characters that should have been included. I disagree this is a wide view.
What is it with you calling Ed's design simple like it's a bad thing? Street Fighter's character designs have historical been pretty damn simple. For God's sake, up until SF6 Ryu and Ken were wearing the same raggedy old Karate Gis for almost 30 years. And Balrog, the man that raised Ed, up until SFV just wore a sleeveless blue top and blue shorts. To me, it just seems like you're looking for any reason to dislike the character.
We don’t hate him and we think he’s redesign is cool. This video might have had 10% of working before his gameplay trailer but right now you’re way off. You’re on your own mate.
This video has aged insanely poorly. Ed has probably been the most well loved DLC character. He is easily the hardest newcomer, the most unconvential character and he easily will get deeper as time goes on.
Ed is one of my top 5 SF characters since his season 1 character reveal. I've even started wearing clothing similar to his SF6 outfits. 1. Ed 2. Ryu 3. Dudley 4. Cammy 5. Guy
I’m good with Ed because I am enamored with his gameplay (this time) and he has lore implications. I am not the biggest fan of his design, at least of his main costume, but his secondary is fire. I suspect given his lore and odd control scheme in V that Ed, like Luke, was always intended for Street Fighter VI and probably was supposed to be the real foil to Luke and maybe new antagonist.
The only thing I got to say about Ed.... I wish they kept his kicks. Ed in SFV reminded me a bit of TJ Combo, who was like the only boxer I seen in fighting games who actually kicks regularly and not only just having just like, 1 or two kicks like Vanessa and Steve.
I did not care for how Ed felt in V. After watching the gameplay vid for VI I am excited for him now. Maybe we will see Dudley in the story XD I would not mind having three boxers in VI, Balrog more as a tank grappler, Ed as a speedster and Dudly somewhere in between.
Let the haters hate; I am hype for Ed. I like his design. I like his style. He looks like they gave him stances. They only hate Ed is getting is from posers.
I’ve loved Ed since he first came out in SFV and mained him, he’s the main reason I got SF6 when he was leaked. Since I know I won’t get Adon any time soon, at least Ed was guaranteed and his redesign exceeded my expectations.
TopHat....dont ever use " we " as in the entire FGC. Thats you and probably few friends and a handful of haters who rather had Rog or Dudley. Especially Dudley. Ed isnt a bad addition to the game and wasnt either in SFV and the best folks found many trick avenues using him. He looks to be even better in this game using some Steven fox takeaways more than yamazaki. I was hoping for Dudely but his story i think came at an end in SF3 ....so i look forward to this revised ed and gonna use him until i see my mains Urien , Gill and Makoto make the cut. Haters gonna hate .
I mean if people really are disappointed... why? Hell he's the reason (and i mean sf6 showing of him) that I decided Steve Fox be one of my 2 mains on Tekken and customized him to look like Ed, and of course Ed will replace either Manon or Juri as my main (one of the other secondary)
I've seen quite a few people reaction to Ed's gameplay trailer and they have been positive really. Ed has flaws in terms of design but his gameplay does look really impressive and it's nice that they made him a traditional boxer with some identity like the flicks as well as his powers rather than giving him kicks in SFV. This is coming from a person who wants to see Dudley come back by the way. But honestly I don't think Ed is a bad addition since he is still fairly new and there is another opportunity to improve his depth as a character. SF6 Aesthetics and what they are doing to characters like Ed surprisingly works. The biggest issues with the reveal is that Capcom made us wait a long while to see the trailer after getting AKI and of course pretty everyone wants to see Akuma. The Ed trailer was kinda hurt by these problems.
I’ve never played street fighter but I like seeing gameplay and I liked Ed in SFV reminded be of a mma fighter with boxing as their base. Now in SF6 he looks amazing gameplay wise and his overall design is better (I just HATE the haircut) I love boxing and you can clearly tell how he’s a pure boxer now. They gave him the Ali shuffle, bobing/weaving, flickers and incorporating a double end bag as his finisher looks amazing.
It's pretty insane to think that a character with such a throwaway design actually has this much planning and lore built up around him since way back. Like, they really invested in Ed, even more than Luke, who's supposed to be the new face of the series. Well, this makes his character more interesting for sure, plus his new super move is pretty sick, but I still don't like him overall. LOL
Actually, Ed is using his opponent as a heavy bag in his super and his win pose is the speed bag. Very minor mistake. And a note, while Ed is pretty hated, his gameplay trailer did seam to get a decent amount of praise, even from the hardcore tournament players. I liked it and I think ED is one of the most boring and redundant characters in all of SF. Also, SF4 is followed by SF3 - Third Strike, then SFV in the time line. Thanks for video, I love your fighting game dedication. Cheers!
It's OK, with his fight moves he is redeemed. Looking to main him, boxers are my favorite characters! Still wish he was Dudley with that moveset, probably means Dudley is out with all the moves we've seen from Ed...
I think they gave him a build up to being in sf6 if I remember his story in 5. So they kinda had to put him in the game. I dunno man he looks more lit than he did in sf5. Gonna be smoking heads in when he drops my guy. The new Steve of Street Fighter
Everyone in the comments professing their gay love for Ed, meanwhile, I do indeed hate this gd character (not his gameplay, his gameplay looks awesome). I’m more interested in labbing Ed’s boxing style with other moves with my avatar. Don’t care for Ed at all as a character. Dude legit copy and paste sounds and acts like Luke. I guess I was supposed to go “HES SO COOL 🥹🥹🥹”. Instead I went “cringe af; can we get effing akuma PLEASE.”
I would rather him look like a young bison, way too much upside to that instead of another Luke blonde character. His design does come off a bit try hard.
From what ive seen most people dont hate this trailer or him but they don't like his new aesthetics aside from a few streamers ive seen. But personally imho his trailer was unimpressive. His new theme tho 🔥🔥🔥 🎶 👑 or 😰 🎶
Street Fighter's chatacter designs have historically been visually iconic and timeless, so in comparison, Ed's design does look boring...he just looks like "generic d-bag in a hoodie." Not a memorable design compared to the classic SF aesthetic. Similar to Luke in that regard.
Damn, watching this made me feel like I’m one of the few people that actually likes Ed. I played him for a while in SFV and I was hyped when I saw him leaked for the SF6 dlc. His outfit 2 in this game looks cool.
"We hate Ed"
Is "we" in the room with you?
Lol
I think you rushed to make this video without checking how impressed people are with Ed's gameplay in 6.
They were impressed with the gameplay, but overall people are still disappointed with his inclusion, including people fearing that he might’ve replaced Dudley since he is a boxer focusing on speed
This guy does it for every new sf release. It's the only way he can get that view count up.
I don't think that Ed is as hated as Top Hat keeps saying he is...
especially not after seeing his gameplay
Top Hat hates Ed so he's trying to get people to hate Ed too. 😂
This is before the gameplay trailer! Before everyone ever talked about how much they didn't like his inclusion and how he was a wasted slot! Now people are on board after the gameplay trailer but before it is as Top had said.

Only thing I don't like is the hair. Everything else is cool.
Cant wait for his sf6 theme to drop i cant stop replaying the trailer cause of the song
Ed’s alright. Don’t hate him. Balrog is probably proud and Ed looks fun now.
I actually think his design makes sense and fits while also being better than his previous design which felt over designed but going with a simpler urban boxer look works better for his character while also appearing to be more sickly than usual possibly due to the psycho power.

What are you talking about? this was the best character intro trailer yet!
Idiots with boxes on their heads? Really? How much skill does it take to beat up men with boxes on their heads?
Personally I really like ED a lot, this video seems very bias. I'm sure we will get Dudley eventually.
I havent seen any hate comments under that trailer, hes actually pretty well received, imo He looks like he could be the most fun boxer street fighter has made
Can't wait to play Ed in this game he looks really fun to play
Ed plays like how I wished Yamazaki would've in KOF 15. I'm personally excited.

@@TopHatGamingManChannel you are correct
My we = the majority
Your we = yourself and 3 blind men and your dog

Ed looks fun to me
Define "we". I can't wait playing him
I already literally did replying to another comment.
This video has aged insanely poorly. Ed has probably been the most well loved DLC character. He is easily the hardest newcomer, the most unconvential character and he easily will get deeper as time goes on.
Bruv you better put some respec on Ed's name bro.
We?
He looks sick! Very interesting character.
Bro really sad WE hate Ed I'm assuming you mean your subscribers 😂
Ed is one of my top 5 SF characters since his season 1 character reveal. I've even started wearing clothing similar to his SF6 outfits.
1. Ed
2. Ryu
3. Dudley
4. Cammy
5. Guy
I just wished he had a different visual aesthetic. But as a character his moveset is dope.
??? I don't see anything wrong with him......

ED means Erectile Dysfunction
Having lost a huge main event to Luke, Top Hat looks to get some heat back by feuding with midcard star Ed.
I did not care for how Ed felt in V. After watching the gameplay vid for VI I am excited for him now. Maybe we will see Dudley in the story XD I would not mind having three boxers in VI, Balrog more as a tank grappler, Ed as a speedster and Dudly somewhere in between.
Who's we ?
Bro after the new trailer i see that "we" opinion have shift for more positive one because his gameplay look sick as hell
Sorry dude your the only one hating ed bc everyone is liking ed
You’re*
Let the haters hate; I am hype for Ed.
I like his design. I like his style. He looks like they gave him stances.

SF 6 is my first game in this franchise, Ed's trailer was hype AF, i might main him.
Never hated Ed but rather just never cared until SF6, especially with the gameplay trailer.
Yes because he's not Akuma
Bad take. It happens. Next!

It was no leak. It was revealed on purpose. People need to calm down. If you dont like the character, dont use it, s....s.

Yes

We? Who's we? Why're you speaking french? Ed is pretty damn fun to play as he is now
The box head characters remind me of Ichiban's imaginary takes on his enemies as he fights in Yakuza: Like A Dragon.
You all may not believe me but, I like Ed actually anyways.
I'm glad ssooommmeeebody brought up how clearly "Nazi" character's like Ed are..Cause for "some" reason Japanese ppl love Nazi's
Because they were once allies during WW2
Ed is much better designed than Luke at least. Luke is the definition of bland style.
Luke does indeed suck.
It's OK, with his fight moves he is redeemed.
Looking to main him, boxers are my favorite characters!
Still wish he was Dudley with that moveset, probably means Dudley is out with all the moves we've seen from Ed...

We like ed 💪👏👊
His swag, fighting style, and hair style makes it easy.
Ed is better in all respects compared to Luke the abomination.
His other uniform is actually cool.
His look is no worse than the aesthetic of the rest of the game and characters
I like that they made him a full boxer with bison's power but the looks is really crap, reminds me of that failure DMC reboot.
Sagat and M.Bison was way less played characters in SFV than ED
I like Ed
I think if they gave Ed a different haircut his design would have been so much better for his inclusion in SF6.
Ill take Ed over Luke.
Ed and M Bison's story is just Sasuke and Orichimaru's story all over again.
From what ive seen most people dont hate this trailer or him but they don't like his new aesthetics aside from a few streamers ive seen. But personally imho his trailer was unimpressive.

Why does he wear a jacket with no shirt on?
You have to ask? 😂
