Ryu changes in SSFIV thread

:party::woot::party:ryu for bottom tier:party::woot::party:

thought id get the thread back on topic

A perfect place for the SF posterboy, no?

I know Bas created the OTG v-isms, but I thought Daigo introduced the across the screen ones to the west.

Nah he beat Nuki in a mirror in the final.

:\

I’ll back down if I’m wrong but how do you know this?

Oh I know Bas was better than Daigo in A3 don’t worry about that.

Sorry if I’m completely wrong but I honestly thought this was the other way round. Not being around back then the only things I have to go by are stories and old grainy clips on youtube. It seems to me Daigo and Nuki were the ones doing the v-akuma shit first and then Bas arrived on the scene later and took it up a notch. You can see in the 1998 tourny clips all the v-isms aren’t that damage efficient and there’s no fancy OTG shit. I really thought Bas came to prominence after the initial Japanese tournament. (Oldest clips I can find from him are from 2001) I really don’t get all these Led Zeppelin analogies, thought Bas was a pretty well known top player…believe me I’m not just trying to give Daigo credit where it isn’t due, I just genuinely thought he was one of the pioneering Akuma players back in the day. ANYWAY…

Sorry for the continued off topic-ness but it doesn’t seem like there’s any new Ryu stuff to discuss anyway.

Wonder if these are possible in the corner without meter:

f+fp, cr. fp XX sk. HK, fp SRK ==> 372 maybe?
cr. fp XX sk. HK, fp SRK ==> 284 maybe?
cr. sk, cr. jp, cr. fp XX sk. HK, fp SRK ==> 262 maybe?
cl. st. fp, jp. SRK, fp. SRK ==> 284 maybe?
f+fp, cr. fp, jp. SRK, fp. SRK ==> 380 maybe?
cr. sk, cr. jp, cr. fp XX jp. SRK, fp. SRK ==> 309 maybe?

FADC SRK combos:

cr. sk, cr. jp, jp. SRK FADC fp. SRK ==> 250 maybe?
f+fp, cr. fp xx jp. SRK FADC fp. SRK ==> 380 maybe? not bad for two bars.
cr. sk, cr. jp, cr. fp XX fp. FB FADC st. fp XX jp. SRK FADC fp. SRK ==> 376 maybe?

assuming fp. srk is 80 on first hit and second hit, and second hit has juggle properties.
assuming vanilla sf4 scaling.

Is this SF4 damage? I thought there was heavier scaling now after fadc’s.

don’t know how scaling will be, so I am assuming vanilla sf4 scaling. Updated post to reflect this. If someone knows by how much stuff will get scaled please chime in. personally I think more damage scaling is bad, but whatever.

So new characters seem better?

Cammy
Fei Long
El Fruete
E Honda
Guile

and maybe Dan would like to say other wise.
Seeing how I would’nt be surprised if Dan gets further bumped up in rank.
A real character doesn’t need fire balls.

—off topic
I may have used Bass before, but I was mention a character not a person
Slow Zangeif type of guy with tech-able grabs yet good enough to get by with just plain brawling

I like to throw aduken.

Its a bad idea if you get attacked before the rose hits. Otherwise, its the smartest thing you can do. Not having the option to parry it WOULD make it OP as you get no wakeup options ever and get to start every wakeup in a blockstring. Rose gets parried all the time in top level play, so maybe get back to licking sirlins salty, crybaby balls.

Did someone die?

???

I don’t think so. More like there’s nothing to talk about anymore until the game drops.

:rofl:

I almost spit coffee on my keyboard you bastard.

That dude was probably the most interesting troll I’ve seen here in a while.

:rofl:

he wasn’t a troll, he meant what he said

and “having adouken is advantageous, using adouken is chicken and abusing adouken is winning” is the best one liner in the history of srk

Well, that and (pardon my french, this is a quote): Nigga you mad?

:rofl:

i think they need to put a cap on how many ryus can be played online

I will pick metsu shoryuken just so I can hear the music stop playing in the background

Best Idea I’ve heard in a while, or maybe you should randomly get Dan instead of Ryu when you try and pick him.

looking at the new vids it seems that fadcing into ultra is not as useful. almost a waste.
