Believe it or not, we're entering the final months of 2020 and that means a Street Fighter 5 balance patch is likely on the horizon. With that in mind, we're a bit surprised at how little we're hearing in the way of calls for Akuma nerfs and so we're diving in to highlight the specifics of why he's overpowered and how Capcom should go about fixing him. Also, we recently got more information about Season 5's first DLC character, Dan, and it sounds as though there's a chance the joke character might present some very intriguing opportunities for both casual and eSports players if the stars indeed align like they're threatening to.
