I’ve grown tired of the Shippu for a bit, and decided to pick up on the Shinryuken, considering no one else does and I useually only save up 1 super bar anyway . Also, Im not a big fan of EX Moves either. I know about Cross up J.mk, but is there any other way beside the obvious cr.mk stuff and mp, fp chain?
ahh! but the EX hurricane is so good–does decent damage, hits multiple times and very quickly, has good priority, is variable and you can combo off it.
The real magic with Shinryuken isn’t what you can do with it, it’s what your opponent can’t do because of it. Unless they’re brain dead they’ll know they can’t jump anywhere near you, which means they have to contend with Ken’s ground game when you can jump and they can’t.
I haven’t done this in a while (i.e. tested it out recently since I never use SA2), but I’m pretty sure this works: cr.MK x WP Shoryuken, kara (w/ cr.MK or cr.HK) Super 2
It’s kind of hard to do, and it might be character specific (I’m guessing it’d be really easy to do on Elena or Q), but I’m too lazy to test.
Stick to SA3. Oh and stop with that stuff about “oh I don’t like EX moves”. You might as well just purposely lose matches if you don’t like EX moves. LOL.
