—Introduction Tagline

Terry (テリー, Terry) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and the first third-party representative from SNK. He was officially announced in the September 4th, 2019 Nintendo Direct as the fourth downloadable character from the Fighters Pass. He was released on November 6th, 2019 and is classified as fighter #74.

Takashi Kondō reprises his role as Terry from The King of Fighters XIV and onwards.

Attributes

Terry Bogard is a tall, heavyweight fighter that uses special inputs for his special moves much like that of Ryu and Ken, and also shares their unique trait of always facing their opponent in 1v1 matches. He has slow air speed and decent running speed, along with a poor recovery, but is characterized most by his great ground game and special moves, as well as his special ability to spot dodge into a counter-attack, and his comeback mechanic which allows incredibly powerful special moves that require a specific input combination to use.

Terry's playstyle capitalizes on his strong bait-and-punish options. Terry has good tools and hitboxes that can threaten lighter characters because of how early they kill. Terry sports many finishing moves in his forward tilt, dash attack, smash attacks, back and down aerials, and a majority of his specials. Forward tilt sports good range and above-average damage, while granting Terry's leg intangibility; dash attack possesses good knockback, damage, and traveling distance while being able to cross up shields; forward smash deals very high damage and knockback with impressive horizontal range to boot; up smash has good vertical range and also deals high damage and knockback; down smash has good range and high speed, but is still decently strong; back aerial deals high damage and knockback and sports excellent range; and down aerial is Terry's most damaging aerial, and can meteor smash opponents.

One of Terry's biggest strengths is his punish game. Due to his special cancelling after moves such as Jab, Neutral Air, and Down Air, Terry can successfully deal a large amount of damage from any opening. Terry's comeback mechanic allows him access to two moves, Power Geyser (↓ ↙ ← ↙ → + attack/special or ↓ ← ↓ → + attack/special), and Buster Wolf (↓ ↘ → ↓ ↘ → + attack/special or ↓ → ↓ → + attack/special). Power Geyser releases from the ground directly in front of Terry in a massive explosion with incredible height and damage, acting as an extremely effective anti-air move as well as dealing a considerable amount of shield damage very quickly. Buster Wolf causes Terry to dash forward a fair distance into a two hits attack which causes incredible damage and knockback. Furthermore, Terry can cancel out of his side special, Burning Knuckle, directly into Buster Wolf, which can then, in turn, cancel into his Final Smash, Triple Wolf. This combo deals upwards of anywhere from 60-90% damage depending on how the player sets up the combo, often ending in a KO.

Although he is known for being a punishing character with a plethora of KO moves, set-ups, and confirms, Terry still has a good combo game. Neutral attack can easily chain into itself or Special Cancel to deal high amounts of damage; up tilt boasts both high speed and damage, has good range, Special Cancels, and juggles aerial opponents; and down tilt deals extremely low damage and knockback while having very low all-around lag, allowing it to be spammed. Neutral and up aerials both provide plentiful combo opportunities due to their mixture of low all-around lag, good range, and decent damage and knockback.

In spite of his strengths, Terry still has some drawbacks. Terry's two extra specials via his comeback mechanic serves as a double-edged sword; because these special moves are only accessible by reaching 100% damage or 0.3× max HP, and they are extremely risky to use, as each move has considerable startup and ending lag, especially Buster Wolf. This makes Terry's comeback mechanic the epitome of risk vs reward, forcing his playstyle to drastically change when it comes into play.

Terry's recovery is another glaring weakness of his: Rising Tackle is unable to sweetspot the ledge, and sports a relatively large hurtbox, making Terry reasonably easy to KO at high percents if the player using him fails to land his specials or combo starters. Terry's neutral is largely based on baiting the opponent to approach and reading their habits to get a single combo extension. His neutral is also relatively weak due to having no good poke tools outside of his Power Wave, though his standard jab combo does an above-average amount of damage. There are other ways for Terry to approach, such as his Side Special and his Down Special. His air and ground speed is average, making approaches from the air weak unless he starts close to his target. Despite his poor air speed, his neutral air can combo into itself with ease, giving Terry a form of Wall of Pain, which can then be easily followed up with his Down Air meteor smash.

Overall, Terry is a heavyweight character with lots of combo options, powerful yet predictable specials, poor and predictable recovery, but astounding damage and KO options. His comeback mechanic changes his playstyle from damage racking and combo-oriented to fishing for KOs with his super specials and setups. When at higher percentages, Terry's already good ground game is enhanced with the addition of his special moves, allowing him to quickly close out stocks and rack up damage, however he must be careful not to make mistakes as he can be KO'd easily at high percentages or gimped at very low percentages.

Moveset

  • Fighter ability: In one-on-one matches, Terry always faces his opponents, much like Ryu and Ken.
  • Fighter ability: When Terry is at 100% damage in Stock or Time battles, or 0.3× max HP in Stamina battle, he can perform two Super Special Moves in the form of Power Geyser and Buster Wolf.
    • It will be indicated with a "GO!" next to his fighter portrait.
  • Fighter ability: Dodge Attack — Pressing the attack button immediately after performing a spot dodge will make Terry perform a counterattack that deals 13% and has an identical animation to his up tilt, but with different mechanics (see below).
  • As with Ryu and Ken, Terry has weak and strong variants of all his special moves, which depend on how long the button is held; tap the button for the weak variation and hold the button longer for the strong. The strong variations do more damage and propel Terry further.
    • Also as with Ryu and Ken, Terry's input specials also utilize "negative edge", where specials can be performed on the release of a held attack button after performing certain stick motions.

Note: All numbers are listed as base damage, without the 1v1 multiplier.

  Name Damage Description
Neutral attack Jab, Body Blow, High Kick 3% A high jab, followed by a hit to the body, and ending with a high kick launcher. The first two attacks can each be canceled into special attacks, most reliably Power Dunk. The second hit strikes twice, and the move deals an impressively high amount of damage for a neutral attack. Holding the attack button also causes Terry to repeat the first hit. Based on his standing light punch, close-range standing heavy punch, and standing light kick in most games.
1% (hit 1), 2% (hit 2)
7%
Forward tilt Middle Kick 12% (leg), 13% (foot) A middle-height kick that grants intangibility to his attacking leg. It has an impressive damage output, especially when sweetspotted. Can be canceled into specials and is a very easy and reliable confirm into Buster Wolf. Based on his standing heavy kick in his home series.
Up tilt Rising Upper 11% An uppercut. Somewhat quick, and can be canceled into specials. It renders his attacking arm intangible. Based on Terry's anti-air command normal in his home series.
Down tilt Under Kick 3% A low kick. Deals extremely low damage, but can be spammed safely due to its very low lag overall. It can be special-canceled. Based on his crouching light kick in his home series.
Dash attack Power Charge 13% (clean), 10% (late) A charging shoulder tackle, akin to Samus, Captain Falcon or Ganondorf. Based on Terry's special move introduced in Real Bout Fatal Fury Special. The clean hit possesses decent horizontal KO potential, and the move can also cross up shields.
Forward smash Backspin Kick 18% A spinning kick in which Terry slightly reels back before leaping forward while performing it. Considerable starting and ending lag, but boasts extremely good KO power. Based on his C+D attack, albeit with a heavily altered animation.
Up smash Wild Upper 16% (early), 18% (late) Terry crouches down and performs an uppercut, similar to Ryu's up smash. It deals more damage with its late hit.
Down smash Slide Kick 12% A low kick. In a similar vein to Mewtwo and Lucas, it only hits in front of Terry. Based on his crouching heavy kick.
Neutral aerial Chop 7% (clean), 5% (late) A quick aerial chop. Can be canceled into specials. It has moderately low lag and very low knockback, even at high percents, allowing it to potentially chain into itself and offer a lot of combo opportunities. Based on his jumping light punch.
Forward aerial Jump Kick 11% (clean), 8% (late) A diagonally angled kick. Based on his jumping light kick or jumping heavy kick when jumping forward or backward in his home series.
Back aerial Jump Backward Kick 15% (clean), 12% (late) Spins around and kicks behind himself. Somewhat similar to Ryu's back aerial. Based on his jumping heavy kick, albeit mirrored.
Up aerial Somersault Kick 9% A flipping kick above Terry. Has low end lag and can combo into itself or other moves at low to mid percents and can be used at higher percents for kill setups. Similar to Mario's up aerial in terms of utility. Based off of Kim Kaphwan's Hienzan.
Down aerial Jump Karate Punch 17% (fist), 15% (arm) A downward punch. Has a meteor effect if sweetspotted, launching opponents at a very diagonal angle akin to a spike. The sourspot pops the opponent up slightly if they are hit on the ground, whereas the sweetspot launches opponents at a rather horizontal angle that limits its follow-up potential. Based on his jumping heavy punch.
Grab   Reaches out with both hands.
Pummel   1.5% Performs a gut punch. Based on the first hit of his front throw in Fatal Fury.
Forward throw Buster Throw 10% Slams the opponent on the ground in front of him. Based on his back throw in Fatal Fury. KOing middleweights at around 166% at the ledge of Final Destination.

Neutral special Power Wave 8% (tapped), 9% (held), 10% (aerial, tapped), 11% (aerial, held) Terry punches the ground, generating a wave of energy. If used in the air, he will release a short-ranged burst of energy, also known as Round Wave. The Round Wave offers decent knockback and can KO opponents offstage.

3.6%, 9.6% (Input, Tapped);
3.6%, 12% (Input, Held)
Unlike any fighter, Terry has two side specials depending on the input; a forward and a backward special.

Burning Knuckle (Forward Special): Terry charges forwards with an energy punch. Can be held instead of tapped for more traveling distance, damage and knockback. Special input is ↓ ↘ → + attack/special (where → is the direction Terry is facing), which increases knockback with a slight boost to damage. If the special input is performed, a subtle fiery green visual effect will be added to the move.

Crack Shoot (Backward Special): Performs a move similar to a flying axe kick. Special input is ↓ ↙ ← + attack/special (where ← is the direction behind Terry), which increases knockback with a slight boost to damage.

Up special Rising Tackle 11.9% (Standard, Tapped), 13.9% (Standard, Held), 14.6% (Input, Tapped), 16.6% (Input, Held) Terry jumps in the air, performing an upward spin that deals multiple hits. Can be held instead of tapped for more distance and damage. If ↓ is briefly held before performing the up special input, Terry will be intangible for much of the move's duration and deal more damage.
Down special Power Dunk 1%, 2% (Standard Rising Hit 1-2), 12% (Standard Descending), 14% (Standard Descending, Late), 1.2%, 2.4% (Input Rising Hit 1-2), 13.2% (Input Descending), 16.8% (Input Descending, Late) Terry jumps diagonally, hitting the opponent twice with a knee strike, before punching diagonally downwards with an energy punch. Can be easily combo'd into from jab 2. Special input is → ↓ ↘ + attack/special, which grants intangibility during the rising part of the move and increases knockback while slightly boosting damage. The strong input special will meteor smash at the end of the move if Terry's fist hits the opponent dead center. Like with Burning Knuckle, the special input will have a special trail effect if done correctly.
Final Smash Triple Wolf 52% (If either of the first two hits of Triple Geyser connects [Hitting with all three does not change the damage]), 46% (If only the last hit of Triple Geyser connects), 24% (To secondary targets hit by more than one hit of Triple Geyser), 18% (To secondary targets only hit by the final hit of Triple Geyser) Terry starts with his Triple Geyser, where he punches the ground three times to erupt three big geysers. If the last geyser hits the opponent, Terry will do his Power Dunk on the stomach before ending with his Max Buster Wolf. This move can cancel any move except for Power Geyser and the later hits of his special moves. The follow-up from Triple Geyser will only hit one opponent. To those who will not get hit, the final geyser deals increased knockback.

Dodge Attack

Terry has the unique ability to perform a counterattack right after spot dodging. This is inspired by a mechanic in Fatal Fury where characters can shift to the background and foreground, with an attack that sends them back into the main plane. It is also similar to a mechanic from The King of Fighters series which allows fighters to perform a quick dodge, which can quickly be acted out of. By pressing the attack button immediately after performing a spot dodge, Terry will interrupt the dodge with a modified version of his up tilt. It has been sped up to strike 2 frames faster, his entire upper body is also intangible, instead of just his arm, and it deals more knockback and launches at a higher angle. However, it deals less shieldstun, and cannot be cancelled into any special moves.

Super Special Moves

When Terry is at 100% damage in Stock or Time battles or 0.3× max HP in Stamina battles, he can perform two Super Special Moves using command inputs:

  • Power Geyser (↓ ↙ ← ↙ → + attack/special or ↓ ← ↓ → + attack/special) - Terry will punch the ground, erupting a big geyser of energy. Does 26%. Has high vertical range.
  • Buster Wolf (↓ ↘ → ↓ ↘ → + attack/special or ↓ → ↓ → + attack/special) - Terry charges towards his opponent with an energy punch. If hit, he will release a tremendous explosion. The initial blow does 5% damage, and the explosion does 20% damage to the initial target and 15% to anybody else hit by the blast, for a total of 25% damage.

Buster Wolf will not follow through with the second hit if the opponent is shielding or hit while downed. Neither move can be performed in the air.

On-screen appearance

Jumps onto the stage from the background and adjusts his hat, similarly to the lane switching mechanic of the Fatal Fury games.

Taunts

  • Up taunt: Gestures and says, "Hey, come on, come on!" Based on his signature intro pose.
  • Side taunt: Turns to the side and points, saying, "Stand up." Based on a victory pose he received in Garou: Mark of the Wolves.
  • Down taunt: Takes his hat off and spins it around, before putting it back on. Based off of his taunt in Real Bout Fatal Fury.

Idle poses

  • Adjusts his cap before quickly pumping his fists.
  • Hops on his feet.

Victory poses

  • Turns around and throws his hat to the side with his back facing the screen, while saying "Okay!". Based on his signature victory pose in virtually every appearance he makes.
  • Holds the brim of his hat, dramatically turns it to the side, then tosses it behind him while shouting “Okay!” in a much more intense fashion than his signature pose. The camera then zooms in on his smiling face. Based on his victory pose from The King of Fighters '94 and '95.
  • Brushes his hat against his legs several times before putting it back on his head, while looking to the side and hiding his eyes with his hat. Based on his Round 1 victory pose from Real Bout Fatal Fury, and several other games thereafter.

In competitive play

Due to Terry's extremely recent release, it is hard to tell how viable he is at all levels of play. His combo-oriented gameplan paired with his extremely powerful finishers at higher percents shows a glimmer of what he could be competitively. For now, it is too early in his lifetime to tell how viable he is. The initial response from top players has been mixed, with some lauding his high damaging combos and kill setups while others stating his poor disadvantage and recovery as large drawbacks.

Classic Mode: The King of Smash

Terry's congratulations screen.

Every match is a stamina battle, where the player faces three opponents, one by one. This is based on The King of Fighters series, which features 3-on-3 battles. The characters on each team have a thematic consistency, either belonging to the same series or sharing certain attributes. Terry will start off with 150 stamina while his opponents start with 100.

Role In World of Light

The message that shows Terry's availability in World of Light

Due to his status as downloadable content, Terry does not have a legitimate role in World of Light. Instead, he is unlocked for use in the mode after freeing 10 fighters from Galeem's control. If loading an existing save file that meets this condition before downloading Terry, he is immediately unlocked.

Trivia

  • Terry's codename within the game files is "dolly". It is a pun based on the Japanese pronunciation of the last syllables of his surname and first name, respectively (Bogādo Te), and it could also refer to how his home stage in the Fatal Fury series often takes place on the dolly of a train.
  • Terry's reveal trailer makes several references to other SNK titles.
    • The beginning of the trailer shows an invitation falling into Kyo Kusanagi's hand, taken directly from the opening of The King of Fighters '94 (which even used the same monospaced font for in-game text); the message ending with [S] is a reference to Rugal Bernstein ending the message with his initial [R], with the Smash director Masahiro Sakurai instead ending it with his initial.
      • However, according to Sakurai, the [S] was snuck in by the team without him knowing; he later states that the [S] could also mean Super Smash Bros., and not just "Sakurai".
    • Ryo Sakazaki's cut-in is a sequence taken from the intro of The King of Fighters '96. The music being played (which continues into the Andy and Joe segment) is from the first stage of Art of Fighting, where the player fights Ryuhaku Todoh.
    • Joe Higashi and Andy Bogard's appearance features a sequence from Fatal Fury Special.
    • Geese Howard falling from his tower references Geese's demise at the end of Fatal Fury: King of Fighters. His sprite has been edited to match his design from Fatal Fury 3: Road to the Final Victory. The music being played in this segment is Geese's traditional theme song, "Soy Sauce for Geese", as heard in Fatal Fury Special.
    • Nakoruru's sequence is from the Vs. screen of Samurai Shodown II. The music is her stage theme from the first Samurai Shodown game, known as "Banquet of Nature".
    • Iori Yagami's sequence is taken directly from the intro sequence of The King of Fighters '95, with his laughter being his signature win pose. The music for this part is his team's theme, "Stormy Saxophone 2", from The King of Fighters '96.
    • Additionally, the frame in which the letter rests on the floor in a spotlight before Terry grabs it is nearly identical to the one in the intro sequence of The King of Fighters '95, albeit in a slightly different camera angle.
    • Terry's silhouette is from the intro of Real Bout Fatal Fury.
    • In Terry's full trailer, Terry wearing his black alternate costume and performing his "Stand up" taunt alongside Lucas is a reference to a victory pose of him and Rock Howard posing akimbo with one another.
  • Terry is the 2nd DLC fighter to have multiple trailers, after Joker, as well as the second trailer for a DLC fighter to feature a victory animation, also after Joker.
    • Terry is also the only character who has had his reveal trailer updated at a later date.
    • In his second trailer, the beginning removes the timeline of Nintendo consoles, makes Terry's splash art background red instead of blue, and shows gameplay of him.
  • Terry is the fourth fighter to receive an invitation letter in his reveal trailer, after Villager, Isabelle, and Joker.
  • Terry's inclusion marks the second time Capcom, SNK, and Square Enix (and, more specifically, Street Fighter, Fatal Fury, and Final Fantasy) have crossed over in a fighting game developed by Bandai Namco, as Akuma, Geese Howard, and Noctis Lucis Caelum previously crossed over in Tekken 7.
    • Additionally, disregarding the aforementioned guest characters, this is the first time Capcom and SNK characters have appeared in a crossover fighting game since SNK vs. Capcom: SVC Chaos.
  • Terry is the fourth newcomer in Ultimate to not be announced in the same presentation as another, after Inkling, Isabelle, and Joker.
  • Terry is the only newcomer in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate so far whose splash screen uses an in-game model; Chrom's, Dark Samus's, and Piranha Plant's use their artwork; Joker's is hand-drawn as seen in his release trailer; and the remainder of the newcomers appear in pre-rendered CGI. This does not include Inkling and Daisy, who do not have splash screens at all.
  • Terry is the only character in the game who may vocalize when rolling.
    • Terry is the second character in the Smash series who vocals when rolling. The first was Fox in Smash 64.
  • When KO'd by reaching 0 HP in Stamina Mode, Terry uses his heavy knockback scream rather than his standard KO scream. This trait is shared with Mario, Dr. Mario, and Hero.
  • Terry is both the first third-party character and the first DLC character to be capable of autocanceling all aerials in a short hop.
  • Terry is the first character in the series to have a Forward Special and Backward Special.
  • Terry, Ryu, and Hero are the only characters who have stamina battles for their Classic Mode routes.
  • Terry, along with Jigglypuff and Bayonetta, are the only characters who do not have a designated boss in his Classic Mode; all characters he battles in his Classic Mode are playable characters.
  • Terry has the second-highest amount of playable opponents to fight against in Classic Mode, with a total of 21, with Mario via his own Classic Mode route facing just two more in total.
  • Terry is the second DLC fighter not to appear in any Spirit battles, the first being Piranha Plant, and the first fighter in the Fighter's Pass with this distinction.
  • Terry's attacks emit unique sound effects, which are taken from the original Fatal Fury games on the Neo Geo. He is the fifth character with this distinction, after Snake, Ryu, Cloud, and Ken.
    • Coincidentally, all five of these characters are from third-party series.
      • Terry also has unique sound effects when landing from a fall, which are also taken from the original Fatal Fury.
