I asked specifically about the Ryu matchup since I had a TON of Ryu players in my pool for Canada Cup. He advised me to ALWAYS keep a Zonk charged, and to keep just outside of shoryuken distance. Idea being that I wouldn’t be able to get hit by a shoryu, and if a hadoken was thrown out, I’d have enough time to react and to punish with a well placed zonk. Other than that, I was told to use U2 and to stick to simple combos I know I can land so I wouldn’t get hardcore punished. That’s about what I remember from our conversation.
That’s some really solid advice,a little trick I like to do myself is to FA a fireball and hold mp so I can have a Zonk knuckle charged at any notice.
That’s pretty much how I played against Ryu before reading this. I’d love to sit down and pick his brain for a few.
