I totally agree with you, Balrog is crap. People always use the same combo with him, it's so annoying. Him frame traps are predictable and he's not tough. I'm a Ryu player and Guy Player, so whenever Balrog uses that headbutt and misses, it's so easy to punish him. I give him a 0 out of 5. No rate at all.
Regardless of what your thoughts on balrog are, I still say that shotos are much easier to use effectively, which explains why on psn, 75% of the people use ryu\ken\akuma
Rogs backstory is a bit more in depth then that goggle. He's a former american boxer who was suspended indefinitely for permanently injuring and accidentally killing someone in the ring due to excessive force and illegal maneuvers like his headbutt and elbow hits. He joined Shadowloo but he wasn't top dog right away. He had to work his way up in the organization in order to be Bisons inforcer.
i kindve agree with you, his move sets are pretty basic that packs a big punch. with balrog, its all on timing. all his moves could be countered easily yet keeps the opponent second guessing if he doesnt dash aggressively, making him fun to use.

@crowwinters I think he meant playing AGAINST the character, which would be fairly obvious since goggle only plays El fuerte and hakan.

hahaha, annotation at beginning of vid: "NOTE: I don't play Balrog." then, zoom to 0:35 "These are my thoughts based on playing the character."
