SFIV Already Needs a Patch?

Looks like Street FIghter IV is already in a bit of controversy due to a combo that El Fuerte can do. Some are dubbing it cheesy and I can see why since he can just backhand you to death. In this round you can see the player pull off the combo at around 26 seconds in and he takes quite a bit of health form Akuma and then does it again. This moment in SFIV history officially makes El Fuerte the weakest and cheesiest new character. Check it out and let us know what you think?

Here is what a Capcom official thinks:

In that video El Fuerte does not chain together infinite FP cancels. He chains some together to dizzy the opponent and then repeats a similar combo to win in one round, but that hardly constitutes the use of the term ‘infinite…Let’s wait and see what the Japanese players say about the tiering before we hastily condemn anything.

    It does look pretty cheap maybe they should make the damage inflicted less or the difficulty of the combo move harder to pull off.

    @ EHT - Agreed, this will get tweaked before launch

    Except for the backhand, he actually looks fun to use.
