Balrog

Balrog, known as M. Bison (マイク・バイソン) in Japan, is a character from the Street Fighter series. He first appeared as a boss character in Street Fighter II. Rising from a childhood of poverty, Balrog was once a great boxing champion and prize fighter. He was banned from boxing for permanently injuring his opponents and accidentally killing one (as well as his illegal maneuvers, particularly his headbutt), so he joined the Shadaloo criminal organization, and worked his way up from the bottom, eventually becoming M. Bison's chief enforcer as well as one of the feared "Four Heavenly Kings".

Street Fighter X Mega Man
Balrog appears as one of the final bosses on Street Fighter X Mega Man. His weakness is the Mega Buster and the Soul Satellite.

Attacks
Even though he has a very limited moveset, each move will cause Instant Death, including making contact damage.
 * Dash Straight (a powerful straight punch)
 * Dash Upper (a powerful uppercut jab)

Strategy
Balrog appears as the first of M. Bison's henchmen that Mega Man will fight upon clearing the areas of the eight main bosses. This boss fight is very unique since he follows Mega Man from behind, unleashing unlimited barrages of punches that will instantaneously drain Mega Man's health should he catch up to him and successfully land a hit. He will do a 4 punch combo and then pause for a moment. Though Balrog's style is impetuous, his defense is not impregnable against Mega Buster fire. However, a far easier way to defeat Balrog is to just keep running to the right; eventually Balrog will fall into a pit opened by falling tiles that drop after being traversed by Mega Man. Along the stage, multiple enemies will start to show up. If an enemy hits Mega Man, it will give Balrog the opportunity to get closer and strike him, Mega Man's inviframes won't work with Balrog's punches. After defeating Balrog, Mega Man can quickly slide as far as he can to the right before the stage ends to get a hidden E-Tank.

If one is attempting to make a Perfect run of this stage, it's recommended to use the Soul Satellite weapon to both, shoot and protect Mega Man from incoming shots, the weapon can also take 1 health from Balrog per shot. So actually defeating Balrog is possible. But it risks missing an E-Tank at the end of the stage.
