Ken General Thread: Go with the Flow

Street Fighter V Ken

Only way I use run is from max distance lol and I mean max distance including his step kick

762

Haha fucking post of the week right here, I love it.

So far Ken seems like he will be a lot of fun, loving his combos. I can’t comment on it to much since I didn’t find any matches last night but I enjoyed using him even if it was only training mode. He still needs 2 be tweaked a bit in a few areas but once he is he will be a blast

Seems the run is just there for him to close the gap during footsies quicker. I guess they dont want a character with as prominent of a neutral game as a shoto to be able to safely run you down with run cancel strings.

765

How do you switch to Japanese voice?

766

I had a good streak, had about 5 matches in 30 minutes then everything just stopped…

I only faced 2 ken Mirrors, everyone else has been Mika

767

Go to sound settings

768

Looks like you can do more after an air tatsu cross-up when you’re in V-Trigger. cr.MP to Target Combo works.

769

Settings - Voice Options

770

You can get any dp from his b.mk overhead on counterhit

771

Man I like this version of ken. But cr.mk being dogshit is really messing with me. Lol

772

close range sweep => once the opponent is grounded do lk tatsu to switch side and then right away MK tatsu to switch the side once again ( it hits opponent ) then juggle into fierce SRK

773

A couple cc combos and a jump in combo

In v-trigger mp dp can juggle into ex dp and it does a good chunk of damage.

774

Wish I was at home to try this. Sounds hilarious.

775

The run shouldn’t be safe bit it should be better than it is, it should be a bit more deceptive in how safe or unsafe it is

776

Ken in this version is not like the Ken that people are WANTING to play. He’s more pressure heavy it seems to me & making the most of V-Trig.

This is like 3s Ken on steroids. What a beastly character.

I was hoping id get to do lunch early enough to go home and fight the Ken army, but coworker is taking so long to get back that it won’t even be worth it anymore.
