Ryu Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition 2012 Moves, Combos, Strategy Guide

did you know that during their training that Ken learned his moves faster than Ryu, even though Ryu trained harder than Ken, also Ken focused on improving his Shoryuken to the extent that flames accompany his shoryuken and he even had his own move Shinryuuken, Ryu focused on the Hado principle and thats why he has alot of fireball moves, Hadoken, flame Hadoken, Shinkuu Hadoken, Metsu Hadoken.

ok this is lucy... whats with the bs that we have to log in to comment = ="

@lucy

here is Ryu on you tube, Its against PC on the hardest difficulty, help me point out weaknesses in my game.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CAryGj...

playing with Akuma

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNc7ZH...

some more videos of me in action

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-H9_NV... (Akuma)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7lNSn... (Ryu vs Guile)

@lucy

be gentle when criticizing

Ryu's Medium and Hard Dragon Punches hit twice now. Damage is down on it, but if you Focus Attack Dash Cancel, you only get one hit from it, so damage is down even farther. Trades into Ultra from Dragon Punches are gone, and most trades into Ultra from Street Fighter 4 are gone, but not all. Puts you in a floaty state, and you can't combo after wards.

Oh no! Ryu has been robbed, WHY CAPCOM WHY!!!!

I think thats fair, trade into ultra is rediculous... lmao. I wonder if they took out viper's trade ultra then, cause hers is actually difficult to do.

I really dont know how to comment on ur videos dude, they are comps, are it doesnt look like you are doing a lot, to tell the truth. But u got the ryu spirit, so keep working on it!

Hey what programs can i use to record my games so i can post them? Preferably one that has high-res video playback

wow what part of this did I miss y do we have to sign in to make a crappy comment.
@Ryu apprentice u have the idea but lack the experience u remind me of my Abel in the sense of finding holes and punishing mistakes if u keep playing and even playing the computer u will see what means beat what and the priority a certian move have like on very hard Abel is god on that game so I go in the training room and just fight him and I learn things its all about learning the game

I beat some SG players and they are over-rated and I think that its all about style and all about zoning and spacing and online players forget that and fall vitim of a Srk whan they get beat down by fireballs
@ Lucy I was just playing about my Viper skill lol I play Guile, Abel, Akuma and Ryu and soon Hakan and of course Adon but Ur viper will own mine I was kidding u lol

lol! oh well, I guess I still have a long way to go then. I wished there was a street fighter community here in Nigeria, (the only closest opponent i have fought online is from Egypt)
I guess I have to put down my gloves, there are too many great players out there.

@lucy
Thanks for the advice man

@cutty
I would really love to see your guile in action, I play guile too but I'm not effective like I am with playing Charlie.

I play... Ryu, Viper, Akuma, Sagat, Abel, Sakura, Cammy, Balrog, Chun Li, and Rufus. Well, i play them relatively decently for now. I tend to only learn the characters who are at least somewhat useful in their own way lmao

I was about to hang up my gloves a few minutes ago and guess what I found, a Nigeria street fighter community!!! I am so happy,am heading there straight away now to spar with some people, heard that there is a guy that's as good as justin wong and he's so good that no one wants to play him.

I am an apprentice but not for long, Thanks guys.

@lucy

Thnaks man. do me one more favour I will paste a replay of me playing gief either today or tomorrow. let me know your thoughts and hints.

@lucy
you can use fraps to record your games at high resolution, it kind of uses resources and unless your pc is very good it may cause the game to lag a bit. the one i use is zsoft and doesnt require much to run and can also use high resolution. my pc is not that power ful so I had to turn down the settings and resolutions and thats why the quality is quite low

will go out in search of other street fighters. I guess its time I leave the comfort of my PC and head out, to feel the fear of losing, the pain of defeat and the joy of victory. To get better no matter what the result may be and never give up in my quest to be the greatest street fighter that ever lived (even better than Daigo Umehara and Justin Wong). It doesnt matter how many techniques I know its the guts to keep on fighting that counts and you may never know what the future holds.

The answer is between my two thumbs and my controller.....

lol go ahead ryu apprentice

@ Lushy man u hvae a casts lol I play more alpha characters so in super I will be a diverse machine but I think I will keep able and Akuma a little bit longer cuz playing ryu may get boring I need an Ace in the hole

@Apprentice
lol i love that "the answer is between my two thumbs and controller...." thats awsome man!

Hope you learn lots at the SF4 community, its impossible to learn enough to get good on your own, u need people to play and help you.

ok thanks, i will look into those programs!

@Cutty
i may really give up on Ryu if the nerf is really that significant when SSF4 becomes mainstream. It might have to come down and pick Viper, Akuma, or Sagat :/ or maybe even rufus if they didnt nerf him lmao.

all they did for sstf4 is tone the good people down because of the noobs complaints to the game thats it its actually going to make the hardcore players hate 4 series even more now... no more trade srk ultra anymore wtf

@Cutty
yea man i agree! ok, i accept the nerf of the trade srk ultra, it was kinda overpowered... but ryu's fadc doing less damage is stupid. I wouldnt be suprised if some would prefer to stay with original SF4

@Apprentice
thos programs arent free :( lol

@Lushy

yeah I know it aint free, but zsoft is free as long as you can bear their logo lodged at the top of the screen (like in my vids) if you can manage that then go for it.

tried out at the arcades and I didnt do so bad, I played against three guys, I won all my matches with the first but got owned by the second guy with his guile (he wasnt so good just that the controller wasnt responding well enough) all he does is to sweep and even though I know I can focus attack the second sweep it wouldnt just come out, the third guy beat my akuma and gief but my ken and ryu was better than his,so though am sad am not there yet I am happy I played someone stronger than me,

The funny part is that they say that ryu's ultra was hard to land and was suprised I can pull of a fadc into ultra and ex tatsu into ultra. I have the chance to be the best and I am going to be the best.

Lucy thanks for all your advice. (I am now comfortable with lp to mp links.

@Apprentice
Thats great man! Get some real matches in! Train hard, become the best in your community! When playing in a real community, you'll improve a lot faster than playing bullsh!t matches online.

Btw, if guile sweeps you and u can react on block, dont bother focuses the second hit, shoryuken or ultra :D

Also, can you post me a link where i can dl zsoft for free? or whichever version u are using, thx :)

I cant really remember the link that I used to download mine, send me an email at ugonnaleonard@yahoo.com and I will send you my own copy.

am still training as much as I can.

here is the zangief vid

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9owJV... (I love this one)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yi2llH...

a few good SPDs, especially the ones that caught abel's throws. That walk up bear hug never really works with humans though, so dont be using that too much.

Record and post some of you playing some online matches man, even if you didnt win, i can give you more pointers that way than watch you abuse the SF4 AI :P

@lushy

got owned at the arcades today against arguably one of the best players in the country, 2wins and 25losses and also got owned alot but looks like I am one of the best ryu player he has faced yet, he always seems to win by a hair's breath.

I wonder why I should continue fighting, I dont have the time nor the mentor to be able to be the best.

I will try to record online matches but it will be seriously lagged.

Anyway how are you doing? waiting for SSF4? I am thinking about stopping playing street fighter for a while.

Though I know the moves and all that I lack the spirit of a fighter. Maybe if I lay off a bit empty myself of all I know then return I may be a master.

........

well, i dont know what it really is to play, but i play to win :D

Thanks Apprentice for the zdsoft recorder! Unfortunately, i dont think i will be recording/uploading any videos because whenever i begin the recording, my game begins to lag A LOT, and makes it pretty much unplayable.

If i find a better recorder than doesnt lag me when it is on, then ill try to make some vids, but until then, o well :(

Cutty, how is ur playing coming along? Havnt heard much about you lately bro.

Theres a tourny two weeks from now, wondering if i should attend. Itll cost me 20-25 dollars, but i will probably go if my friends do. XD

ok to cut down on the lag you can reduce the resolution that the zdsoft records with, alternatively you can connect a tv to your system and record via a dvd recorder/player.

Good luck on the tournament

Hello Pain, welcome to the page :D thx for the tip

@Lushy I hear man I just was doing skool work lol... I decided not to have a main for sstf4 until a major tourney is ready for me to enter because It seems Ryu was nerfed and lower tier characters are better so I will play the game and when Evo rolls around I can getin on some action... But for some reason I feel Abel will raise and I learning him and he has what it takes to be goddy what do you think?
I think u should play in the tourney man it never hurts to pay and see where your skill level is at

I play Ps3 so if I wanted to record matches and stream video i would need a dvd player or what?

I bro made Sg and he mains Ken and I beat him wit my newly discovered Abel game I feel if Abel had a better roll and faster sweep he would be better but rushdown characters like Cammy and turtles like chun give me probs lol

Ryu apprentice have you tried anyone else in the game yet? I play Guile Abel Ryu Akuma so when super comes out I will play Abel more but y don't you bounce around more to see who fits your playstyle also
The first time I played stf4 in the arcades I played very defensively their was the guy their who had 25 game win streak and I nearly beat him he and I had a battle of the footsie's lol but I blew an ultra and lose... I'm a pad player so by me losing made me practice more and harder. And my friends seen my weakness so they came to my house and we were just making each other better

This was no run of the mill aracde it was Aracde AI Aracde Infinity it was japanese sticks and cabinets everywhere so the guy was super legit he destroyed everyone and I barely lost cuz I don't the stick I know the game :-}

thats pretty legit man. If i continue through with the game enough to and think i am good enough, i want to go play in Tokyo like my friends, and visit Arcadia Infinity to fight some of the best Americans.

Abel does have trouble with Cammy specifically because he has no good anti air for her while she is fast moving and her cannon spike pretty much beats out everything you have and if u rolled and she whiffed, she still goes pretty far.

School is starting for me again... blah :/

is it wise to remap the controller from the default state in order to pull off moves easier, does daigo do that?

and one sf veteran said to practice a particular combo 100 times per day, does that work.

why does ryu have a bad day with balrog, cammy and blanka.

learned to fadc skatnetsu hadoken dash into ultra today.

appart from mp mp tatsu(hk) which other link does most damage.

now mashing lp really bait moves.....

what is the meaning of the signs on ryu's glove?

pad vs fightstick which one is better?

@cutty
if you have a ps3 you can easily record your movies either by connecting your tv to a dvd recorder via a AV out. or you can buy a TV card for the pc and relay it that way.

@lushy

still waitin for your vids, friend.

LUSHY TEACH ME THE WAYS OF THE RYU!!!!!!!!!!

@Pain
You MAY want to remap your controller, but daigo does not do that because he, like most other top ranking players, play on the default japanese style arcade cabinet setup

Practice combos 100 times a day? Theres no harm, go for it if u want to! but that seems like a lot of effort... even though i find myself practing a combo over and over sometimes too

Balrog is definitely one of Ryu's most difficult matchups. Cammy and Blanka should be fine, just gotta get used to it.
But why? Dunno, just is, figure that out urself lol

several of Ryu's most damaging combo are:
fHP, crHP, HP shoryuken
crMP, crHP, HP shoryuken

No idea what his glove says

Fightstick is much, MUCH better... i cant emphasize enough lol

I actually did a few recordings last night, but i recorded them with zdsoft uncompressed because it lagged me the least so it was still mildly playable. BUT, the 3 min videos turned out to be over 1 GB each!?!? So i did not bother to upload those obviously. Next time i head to the arcade, i will hopefully get some videos recorded by camera/mobile and i will post those if the quality is acceptable.

@Friedpork
go away nubcakes :D

:(

I am soo happy his shoryuken is getting down-powered is SSF4, he was way to easy to use and dominate with in SF4, now he will actually take more than just a shoryuken, ultra, hadoken, and jump in heavy kick to win with him. Still i think they need to do more to down power sagat far more than Ryu. Im just happy he will be totally fair in SSF4

@Canabalistic
Sagat got nerfed way less than Ryu is true. Ryu's uppercut did not have to be nerfed in my opinion, he is definitely one of the stronger characters in the game, but everyone knows how to play against him, thats his problem, and every average Ryu player will get owned because of it.

Ryus just need his 3 main moves: crouching foward (crMK), hadoken, and shoryuken. :D

Lucy, I can help ya with the size, will send you a video conveter that will reduce the size to 9mb or at most 12mb without losing quality. should I use the same email you used?

People hate whI see y peoplepeople get beat by ryu a lot so stop whiningg and learn the matches up hate ryu cuz u get beat by him... u know who is honestly the best in the game Rufus cuz his damage output is high high defense and stamina he has more ultra potential than ryu he is the best in the game the reason noone plays him at a high level look at jwong rufus compare it to ryu or abel and decide for yourself. Btw how many time must people complain about Ryu but in third strike no body played but me now they nerf the only person I liked damn

Btw the I typed this in class sorry for the bad grammer lol but if any deserves a nerf its Rufus for the fat he has no weakness he can't be zoned he can't be rushed down and if turtles its a wrap for u and his tornado move eats 1 fireball and move. Forward and he isn't a bad match for my able but his dive kick is to good and deadly if performed low if he didn't get nerf in super he is my new main lol but I hate the his new alt costume... whomever has the best alt uniform is my new main lol

Well Cutty, i have to agree with you. I do play Rufus to some extent. He is definitely one of the more easily annoying/good characters of the cast, and his ultra is very easy to link. I heard that he getting nerfed in some ways for sure though

But u mentioned he cant get zoned... but i disagree with that. He can rush down really well with his divekick, but he takes quite a beating getting up to your opponent, but once you do, you usually more than make up for it :P

@Apprentice
Wow, thats awsome! Yes, please send that to me ^^

ok. will do just that. just remember that you have to convert your vids to flv.

@ lushy yea I guess but when I'm ryu I don't lose. To rufus but when I play guile or able which are rufus favorable matches I get owned or its a chess match I think if Akuma dive kick isn't as good as rufus on super I may quit the game all together. Did I mention the ex messiah kick stops all Abel mixups that move is the best thing on the game by the chip damage or a clean hit and the options he gets afterwards are to good so I think I will try rufus more to give more of a indepth analysis lol

@Cutty
well you should say "you dont lose" with Ryu, everyone loses. Actually, if you anticipate a ex messiah, you can neutral jump and he will whiff, as Able, u can ultra when u land... guile... just do watever lmao

@Apprentice
received the video converter, thank you! I will start recording when i can :D

Yea I meant I usually take that match but I'm working on the matchup wit Able still cuz I picked him up Saturday and its coming along fine it seems that people run away from him during the match cuz they don't see a lot of Abel players all they do is spam fireballs and get by ultras lol

@Cutty
well i spam fireballs UNTIL you have ultra :P and safe jumps own abels, so im not afraid to go in at all

@Apprentice
ive come across yet another problem. I manages to record two videos, the quality wasnt great but whatever, i just want to post something. But once i converted it, im not sure why, but the video multiplied o.o like... a match i had against a akuma which the video was about 8 minutes... turned out to be over 2 hours after conversion, which the video just repeats over and over. I know i can just edit out the extra parts, but why did it do that? = ="

That has never happened to me before...

here is the process I normally take

1.Open the converter
2.Click on new task then select import file...
3.Select the file that I want to convert and choose open.
4.Next I select the video output format (in this case FLV)
5.Then I click on convert now.

It has never given me problems, one other thing I should mention, the zdsoft video format I use is MPEG4 video (in the zdsoft settings tab) It may be that so try recording in that format and then convert. Let me know if the problem continues.

Lushy lol if Abel had a descent move to attack jumpins like a get the heck off me kind of thing he would be top tier but anyway screw the tier list I think its rewarding to beat Giefs and Cammys but the I need to be in the center of the match not the corner then I would have a chance lol so ur Ryu against my Abel sounds fun cuz shotos either play a turtle style and mke mistakes or try to rush me down and get scooped a lot lol

@Apprentice
That is exactly what i do, maybe ill change the zdsoft video setting. Maybe you guys just wait for my camera recorded videos, i tried to get some yesterday, but my phone ran outa battery lol

@Cutty
easy to rush able down imo

Yea ur right he is easy to rushdown and to keep out but I think he will climb during the tier list changes so I may keep him around... have u notice if akuma trades on a srk he can't throw any fireballs maybe its just me but he can't throw nothing which is complete bs so is that how ryu will play like now?

oh man.... went to the arcades today and lost to the best player in the arcade again. he virtually mopped the floor with me, I could only win against others but not him. I lost all my matches against him and won 80% of the rest of the matches.

@cutty
How ya doing

@lucy
I dont know what to do to improve anymore. playing the best is not helping

@RyeTehGreatestever

Thanks for the advice, it shows what you know

WOw check out the changes they made its going to make me play the original street fighter game. I believe the tier list will change but other thing like Rufus and chun li players will rejoice cuz they aren't fireball characters that can zone them lol look like I may oil up after all ;)

Well... the damage nerf on all uppercuts will annoying. Having a pre-tourny training session this friday, may be able to get some vids up if someone wants to record :P

@Apprentice
do what you need to win, thats it

I cant believe this! I pulled off a FADC in a laggy online

match! I did it, I did it. Am so Happy!!!!

Hey lucy wats up, I always seem to miss you by an hour online, I will catch you tomorrow

why are the srk nerfed so bady I love the anti air yyyy this makes me a sad shoto so I will be moving to abel I think or Adon

nah dont be too sad, we will still shove our shoto boots sideways into their candy asses

Of course I have a home but I always liked grapplers Alex i my all-time fav character for some reason but Abel is cool but I think Alpha ryu is the best ryu ever and 3s is up there but 4 RYu sucks

LOL

Maybe the metsu shoryuken will make up for it, but i doubt it

officially I got my ass whopped by Lushy, if you feel like you are good just play him alright.

@lucy
Thanks for the fight, you really showed a new thing in the attacking game. Hope to fight ya again someday.

I just noticed you can land a EX hadoken to ultra without FADC midscreen, anyone know if that only works against certain characters?

thats only in the corner, yeah it works on all characters,but the ex with fadc works anywhere in the midscreen and even in the corners and its an unexpected move (even daigo doesnt use it much if at all) it takes a lot of practice to master it. for some reason its easier for me to land after a double cMP then ex hadoken fadc ultra

what I was saying is that I managed to do the EX hadoken to ultra midscreen without FADC... Was playing a C.Viper online and did it by mistake, have to be close when doing the hadoken though. But since its really fast you can do it to quickly punish even a small mistake and land the ultra.

well sure but I think it has a very narrow window to hit and most of the time you may miss and if the guy techs the fall you are wide open to get punished

Its with a heavy heart that I hereby announce the death of my dear PC controller, who passed away after several

hours of surgery due to injuries sustained from the battle with a great fighter aka LushyLushy whose brutal FADC

into ultra and Balrog's one headbutt too many have fatally injured the poor controller, the controller was the

first I ever used to play street fighter 4 and helped me through countless fights, learning to FADC, not to mention

was with me as I learned my combos, I'm gonna miss you controller, Oh well this is where I say goodbye dear

controller, its nothing personal but I gotta get a new one (for about $7) to continue to battle. lol!

@apprentice
wow a controller for 7 bucks lmao. Thats cheap. That was some intense emotions you gave to bid your controller fairwell dude. lmao

dude those matches really did not reflect mine, nor your skills. 3-5 seconds of input delay, who can possibly play their best with that? You havn't shown me your true color of battle, nor have i shown you :P Maybe one day you visit Vancouver, BC in Canada, we will have a real match :D

@Demonbreeder
thats interesting, lemme test that out

Vancover British Columbia is where you from Lushy? thats cool I'm here in the USA florida until the summer then its back home maybe I rent sstf4 and we can spar?

After testing the EX HD to ultra midscreen without FADC I noticed you can combo into it quite easily from as an example c.MP though I still havent tested this against any other character than C.Viper.

@lushy
yeah it was my favourite, I spent like two hours trying to fix it, it stopped working after our last match lol!

@Demonbreeder
ex into ulra is possible but it aint worth it, the only way you can land it comfortably is after a fadc, it combos easily into ex hd and ultra.

@lushy

yeah controllers are quite cheap here. tried playing online with keyboard and it was hard, going to market today. looking forward to fighting you again.

I can land it pretty easily now.
May your controller rest in peace.
Hope mine doesnt break anytime soon lol, Madcatz TE sticks are expensive, though I totally think its worth it.

just bought a duo controller (2 in 1) for like $9. so i am going to unleash some hadoken tonite!

Lushy I await you

so PC can play with x-box live right?

nah I dont think so, lushy has a PC version too. long time no chat cutty, you seem to love abel adon and akuma more than Ryu. so hows your fighting life been lately

I'm here still my game is still improving lol I just troll the net finding new news about super street fighter 4 so I can make my adjutments accordingly lol but anyway Its still about ryu tho I'm curious to see how he will play in in super

My sympathies for your died pad

BTw Ryu apprentice do u have street fighter alpha 3? I wont to know what I did I beat my friend he was ken and I was Ryu and after the match my Ryu helped his Ken up off the ground I never seen that before is that an arcade thing or what cuz we were in the cades playing?

nope I havent seen that before, maybe is a hidden stuff! wish I could see that.

@Cutty
PC CANNOT play with XBL. We should spar... but how? o.o

@Demonbreeder
interesting find, but shoryuken FADC would still be more practical all around.

Tourny today, wish me luck guys :D

True, the SRK FADC is more practical most of the time, though this have its uses, also if you time it right you land all hits of the ultra after the EX hadoken, after 7 hits of the ultra the character bounces backwards and land on it again and takes the 8th hit. Another cool thing is that a lvl 2/3 FA as anti air will send the opponent flying and you can land the ultra after that too, same thing here they bounce back after a few hits and land on it again, hard to time this right but when I got used to it I found its pretty useful in some situations.

btw good luck on the tourney!

@cutty

Good luck, go show them waht you are made of

it happened again my ryu help his ken and his ken helped my ryu on the rematch its back-flpiipin awesome lol yea but I think from the vids I'm seeing that ryu hadoken is hella fast which is a plus but if the srk is nerfensived y play a anti-air ryu game?? which was my specialty and his links look easier so he has some upside it seems and Akuma so maybe all isn't lost for super street figher 4

Goodluck in the tourney whoever is going lol

@cutty
Yep it happens in Ryu vs Ken matches in alpha 3, I experimented a bit and I realised that if you win the second round with a shinkuu hadoken that he will help ken up and also if you win with metsu shoryuken and hold mK(medium kick) button he will also help Ken up. looks cool and shows how they value each other.

about ryu being nerfed its no longer a new thing, they nerfed him in sf3 (slow hadoken, shinkuu hadoken does pitiful damage, joudan shotoku geri is way too slow and his meter fills very slowly) but still I kicked ass with him so dont fear, he is still the best and his metsu shoryuken does simiar damage to the shun goku satsu (50% of the lifebar when done to cammy).

@Lushy

How did the tournament go? I fought with a guy online and his game was slight lag but the battles were intense, he is a very good akuma player and never gives me space to breathe, he mopped the floor with my ryu and I can only beat him with Bison, I really felt a connection between fighters and what it means to communicate through one's fists.

eh... 7th place... kinda disappointed. I lost to a Bison... and it was the most stupid way too. (for game point) I had not much life left, he had literally NO LIFE in his bar, he jumped in on me so i wanted to mash shoryu to chip or whatever. But a regular standing light punch game out and i died = ="

@lushy

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! why!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAD FAITH IN YOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!

for losing that easy I am challenging you to an online 7 round bout, choose a date and time that is ok for you. (LOL! JUST KIDDING)

anyway 7th place aint so bad and I know you did your best, nice fighting man.

WETHER WE WIN OR WE LOSE ALL OF OUR BATTLES MAKES US STRONGER!

I hate Trials.

@surgefist

Ryu's trials are the easiest, if you train hard you can pull it off with no difficulty, i finished mine barely 3hours after installing the game

@lushy

I feel your pain, anyway dont fret, like I always say....

"IT'S NOT ABOUT WINNING, IT'S MAKING SURE THAT THE OTHER GUY LOSES!"

@Lushy its alright we all get have those duh moment and lose lol atleast u cracked the top 8 and understood why u lost and thats always a good thing. good job tho

@Ryu apprentice yea I won with the Shinku hadoken and I wanted to know are their anything else with any other characters I know if ryu fight sagat and depending on the ism he beats Dan up lol but about akuma and Ryu

hurray, I really enjoyed myself at the arcade, 57 Wins to 16 Losses, playing online matches really upped my game! I feel like am the king of my world at the moment. i was throwing out FADC into Ultra like a airplane on auto pilot. I used Vega, Bison and of course Ryu. Thanks guys for all you help and advice and many thanks to Lushy for kicking my ass online and showing me where to improve.

@cuttyb1987

I dont know if there are others, I think there is one of Sagat holding up Dan by the throat in the beginning of Ryu vs Sagat (alpha 2 I think)

I will check out if there's others

@everyone
Thx guys for the support!

@Apprentice
Good job dude, thats the way to go!

yeah Thanks man, couldnt have done it without ya, have you read the book "playing to win" ? I am currently reading it and it talks about how to play a game competitively and tips to be a master.

Ryu Apprentice are u a stick or a pad player maybe u should invest in the fight stick cuz 57 wins is awesome man forreal

@cutty

I have never used a stick, I use a pad always. one advantage of a fight stick is that execution capability is twice as fast as a pad (eg, you can perform a kara demon with a stick but not with a pad.)

But if you use a pad you aint going to be hampered that much either

I will consider getting a fightstick when I go pro, for now I am working on my techniques, strategy and mind set,

for the most part I think winning is a matter of getting into your opponents head and program what you want him to do,

though I am not perfect I am still working on mind games and how not to panic when I am cornered(Though with Bison that isnt a problem and I can always cLP,cLP,cLP,cMk with Ryu to get some breathing room space).

my only weakness is that I dont really have peace of mind to remain calm when I am being harrased by Akuma, Blanka and Balrog. I am thinking of practicing breathing techniques lol!

well the thing is, you should get a stick early on because you can get used to it now while you are learning. If later on, you go pro and decide to get a stick, your gonna get frustrated and go back to pad which just wont work.

A good bison should screw you up in the corner o.o his crouching short would stuff your jap

OMG Ryu lost his super trap WTF I thought it was a rumor but naw its true why? what I mean is If I had a super and I throw A FIREBALL and A NOOB JUMPS I Throw A super and catch them landing wtf

He cant do that more so ryu is DAN now or what???

WHAT?!!!?! NO SUPER TRAP!?!! THATS BS!

yea man thats what I said and Seth Killian said people will prefer the super versions of the characters first the srks cool but the ultra was pushin it and now the super trap dam I'm pissed what else his ex-tastu doesn't juggle give me a break he could do it in third strike
