  Being able to instantly use moves that required the player to charge was bullshit.

  He was a cheap motherfucker, but nowhere as much as Goro, who had unblockable moves and could interrupt your hits and combos

    Yeah Goro was probably cheaper overall, but the CPU in general in SF had unblockable moves and invincibility that they used to interrupt your attack. Of course, input reading goes on in a lot of games and MKI was I’m sure no exception (found this MKII video about it). I think it just got ramped up even more for M Bison, so he ended up being pretty comparable to the MK bosses as well.
