I feel like his neutral game is serviceable, with some decent gotcha moves (EX Barcelona, command grab). Which fits me great because I really enjoyed playing a neutral game/patient Rufus in SF4.

If claw/no claw makes him more adaptable to different matchups, that would be pretty sweet. I haven't gotten that far yet, though. Like if claw is better against fireballers and no claw is better against non-fireballers. We'll see. I have some vids to watch.

I also like the fact that he has some semi-complex combos with cancelling into claw switch and then linking to other stuff. As a Guile main, it's something Guile had in IV that is missing in V (no, the corner sonic boom loop is not that hard).
