-Safe jump (empty) into overhead (risky)
–Walk forward, followup with (ft) jabs/grab (risky)
–(ft) cmk hado/ex hado
-Safe jump (empty) into grab / delayed grab
-Safe jump (empty) into meaty cmk hado (ex hado to push away)
-Safe jump hp/hk/lk into:
–tick grab
–delayed cmk hado/ex hado
–clk x3 (ft) cmk hado/ex hado (unmashable string during clkx3 against reversals)
–into jabs, walk forward tick grab
–walk back cmk/hado (same as delayed but gives better spacing against characters with godly jabs like barlog and chun li)
–walk back whiff lk cmk hado (footies mindgame)
–clp cmp/cmp cmp (ft that combo)
-walk back fireball (meaty) – 100% safe if not in dp range - chip dmg

@Shadow VII
I think Evil Ryu has some mixups using his axe kick. I’m not sure. But personally, I don’t like evil ryu because he doesn’t have akuma’s demon flips D=
@Everyone
Oh and these are just the obvious ones that don’t use bar. Another common mixup I use is meaty jabs, walk forward, dp fadc ultra
OS tech beats out most of the mixups you said. They are good mixups, except for cr.mk-cr.mk throw. You are leaving too much time to walk up. They could just jab you out or randomly dp you.
I personally like doing a cross up into Cr.MP then grab, if you hit confirm you can go for a better combo if you want.
Or if you get a knockdown on them with a shoryuken, I like to walk on them and right when I see them getting up I do Cr.MP a bit early if it hits I go for a combo or grab, if they block I go for the grab.
I also like to jump in with J.MK then cr.lk, cr.lp then grab… something simple.
Also whenever they are really low health say like 5 %. I jump in with that ambiguous J.LK. Shit is too legit especially in the corner.
Ryu’s mixups have already been figured out by good players. The crouch tech traps can be tough to deal with but they’re obviously not exclusive to Ryu.
Anyway for completeness sake, here’s a few more.
After b.throw:
dash, mk tatsu = “unblockable” (can’t crouch unless they hold df, standing x-up block only)
After f.throw:
backdash, j.hp (+OS) or air hk tatsu for a front/back mixup. If the tatsu connects then at some ranges and quick-rise timings you can jump and do hk at the last moment to catch them crouch blocking, or just empty jump into cr.hk or cr.mk xx ex hadou, to catch them standing, or if it’s far enough you can even just whiff the j.hk and go into cr.hk (obviously don’t do this if the opponent can anti-air you)
(in the corner) whiff st.hk, j.hk/lk for ambiguous x-up setups
After empty jump (works best with x-ups):
:f: :d: :df: lk + lp. will tech if they try to throw you on landing, will DP in all other cases. make sure you have meter to FADC in case they block
These are some really good changes. The light fireball makes it easier to bait people for anti-airing & can setup for some good setups. The heavy fireball is awesome. If anyone doesn’t mind, can anyone list the combos that they have that goes around the 300ish other than the ones that I’ve found? I understand his neutral game & how plays. Now I’m working on his execution barriers for combos (punishing, tech, etc). Or just his best ones & best knockdowns/setups (Have some but just listing the damaging ones)?
Jump HK cr.MP cr.HP xxHeavyDPxx
Jump HK SHK xxHeavyDPxx
Jump HP SHP xxHeavyDPxx
Cr MP Cr HP xxHeavyDPxx
j.hp, cl.hk, c.hp xx hk tatsu against Gief etc
j.hp, cl.hk, s.mp xx hk tatsu against Rufus
j.hp, cl.hk, c.mp xx hk tatsu against Yun/Yang/Chun
j.hp, cl.hk, c.mk xx hk tatsu against Ryu etc
It’s a mindfuck because people don’t realise you’re comboing it.
