Nobody uses Dudley?

I had a quick look at the speedruns on here and seems like everyone's using shotos, but has nobody seriously considered using Dudley?

In true speed TAS runs, I set up a few rules for getting to the end as quickly as possible, some of which being no knocking the enemy down/back, no supers (they waste too much time), and getting hit at least once in the match, because the Perfect announcement also takes up time. Because it's TAS I can somewhat manipulate the AI into comboing into them while they're crouched as often as possible (while crouched you take suffer 30% more damage) but of course it's not guaranteed. I've done TASs with Akuma, Ken and Dudley, with an attempted run as Makoto that I never finished, because I quickly realized Dudley easily outspeeds them. He has the best jumping arc and can do more ground combos without knocking back or down, namely duck in uppercut over machinegun blow. I see the community is rather small at the moment, but still I invite you all to watch my TAS to get a better idea of how, I feel, is the most optimized way to speedrun 3S. I added a counter to it as well.

Also... why not disable the bonus games too? It seems silly to do those. And even if you're going to leave them in, you can also choose to have parry the ball lvl 5 so Sean throws them faster..

Sorry for the late response. Usually with the street fighter boards we try to keep it as close to how u would play it in the arcades with default and max difficulty. Removing the Bonuses would be faster for runs but then would prolly have to add a new category, as that makes it technically an ANY% run. Also if we remove the bonuses might as well allow 1 round fights and difficulty of 1. If someone is interested in this, do the run and I will set up a misc. :)
