Because it turns out that corner carry, okizeme, abundant throw/shimmy opportunites, 3 frame tatsu, an overhead that combos, and an EX DP is enough to win games in the SFV meta.Welcome to r/StreetFighter, a subreddit dedicated to build the fighting game community, harbor a healthy competitive nature, and be welcoming to players and fans alike. Ryu sucks at both of those styles.īTW Ken has done well in tournaments at various times, even in season 3 you have ChrisT and Bigbird putting in work. Capcom, Ryu is able to access Kens moveset when the player enters a certain command.) He also appears in the Street Fighter. But if you want to play in tournaments Akuma is the best shoto, and Ryu is split into two characters, Ken for rushdown and Sagat for zoning. Seriously though, any character can work online. Ken is mid-tier because he has the basic shoto layout but with very good corner carry and okizeme, an overhead that can combo because why not, and that stupid backthrow that dumps you in the corner from mid screen. So what I'm about to say is if you took the truth, played it as a guitar note, amped it up to 11 with heavy ambience, fuzz, and also had a phaser going.

I'm going to give you a jarring, honest opinion, and then exaggerate it further. Ryu vs Ken with custom mods to make them look like their Evil variants from past games.FF.
