Other than being visually pleasing, with how easy the metsu hado is to link why would you opt for the SRK ultra, when it most likely would have the linkability of kens ultra and as AA would probably do no more damage than kens which isnt very scary in that respect.
I dont think capcom will be adding anymore ultra’s (trust me i hope I am wrong, I would love if they put in that much effort) but adding a new ultra with different properties means they have to entirely re think the character and how the new ultra impacts their game, in respect to other characters, and to the character itself. I mean choosing an Ultra that is similar to kens, over Ryus metsu hado, is taking away from ryus game not adding to it or breaking even.
Although if they did decide to put in the work for rebalancing, with adding new ultras and allowing you to select them like 3s, it would be nice, as certain ultras may come in handy for certain match ups.
I find it very hard to believe anyone is fast enough to srk that move on reaction. Like I said it’s used in high level play all the time. Daigo uses it, Fuudo, Poongko, all of them, and I can’t recall any of them ever being srk’ed out of it on reaction. Of course you can’t be telegraphing that it’s coming, but that goes without saying.
Eh, I’ve been knocked outta it with a SRK a few times and jabbed outta it about 10000000 times. I love the move. It’s a great mix up but I just dont feel I’m using it correctly. I usually set it up with cLP cLP f+HP or something along those lines
well. i never said change his TATSU, i said ADD the Horizontal AIR tatsu, therefore both KEN/RYU could have a mix up of air tatsus to confuse opponents.
adding AIR Horizontal tatsu to KEN would definitely benefits him more.
Fixing the ExTatsu glitch is a must like someone said earlier. Sure it isn’t that bad, but it sucks because you can get shoryukened out of it(though this instances are rare)
Invincible shoryu all the way up would be a nerf imo. Trade shoryu -> Ex fireball/Ultra rules. Shoryus become a lot less scary when you stop being worried that you take 40% damage if you trade.
Gouken has a horizontal air tatsu. Thats enough. This would be another nerf because using his air tatsu to get out of sticky situations is priceless, plus cross up tatsu…
no mix up… like i said before ppl WHO are smart enough would just bait that out and punish you cuz of the recovery from the jump. and let alone the juggle limit in this game. so this would NOT help Ken at all.
I don’t think the 3rd Strike side kick is going to happen because Gouken is using it as his focus attack. Besides, it loses it’s best trait as the EX version won’t be bouncing anybody off the wall to set up a Ultra for Ryu since as far as I know, no one bounces off the wall in this game.
Fake fireball would be nice, but all the non Ryu players would bitch over being baited into jump ins that would be met with a jab SRK into Ultra or a Fierce SRK>FADC>Ultra. So essentially it’s a set up to a few of your established Ultra set ups.
Honestly, I’d rather just have the red fireball back from the Super/ST days. Give Akuma 900 health or whatever for losing it and add it to Ryu’s arsenal. Like I said in the opening, I want this just for Sagat. The fireball war would be even and essentially it’s the job of both players to decide whether they want to try and close the distance or stay back and hurl fireballs one after another.
Well however he turns out, I just hope he doesn’t get nerfed. At the very least let him stay the same, but I’d prefer if they added at least one new ***useful ***tool to his arsenal.
In anycase, 99% of the people here are in no position to talk about changing the game in anyway, shape, or form. Becuase 99% of the people here are scrubs. including me.
You being annoyed means NOTHING. get the fuck over it.
