They buffed Ryu So So much, what do you guys think of him now?? Is he ready to finally win in SF6? Subscribe for coverage of more characters, thx for all the support guys #sf6 #ryu #balancepatch
Thanks for the video Izonk ! Going through the patch notes it seems like they've buffed almost all normals and specials Ryu has, the only nerf I saw was OD Denjin Hash. Damage reduction from 1000 to 800. Which is fair tbh as other specials deal more damage now. Solar plexus +3 on block is nuts (hopefully they don't revert it back) and Level 1 can come out when OD Fireball is still on screen is simply incredible !
I think solar plexus needed it, its so dumb in the old patch. 20f su and then +1 but out of throw range..so all you can really do is press lp to stop them from mashing…and sometimes it doesnt even reach and Ryu gets hit pff +3 is great, you can now press mp and if it counter hits, cmk always combos And the denin od hasho needed the nerf because he will have denjin a LOT now, he gets it much easier and can keep it for combos now. Man hes good, i just did the luke video, ryu is better than him, im calling it
Im honestly stunned by how many clear buffs they gave him, this is crazy haha enjoy them! He’s mega good in the corner now with better zoning and better neutral conversions. And better pressure LOL what..
After seeing your Ryu guides I decided to try out this character. I want to do that crazy denjin combos, they seem like they will put my fingers to play sf6 like a Mozart partiture 😅. Thanks for this examples, it's realty useful to see this straight to the point without video fillers.
Haha you can do it! Start simple by getting the charge and then doing mp, cmp qcb p+p. That will crumple them (charged od hashogeki). After that you can do hp, hk, charge to get the charge back again orrr hp into light tatsu if you wanna keep attacking 🙌
My homie linked me this vid. I didn't get to look at the patch notes cause all I thought Ryu changes were just denjin charge, this is nasty and I learned alot. Thanks my man
Yw!! Yea man the denin charge (keeping it) is big, but the new ways and setups (corner) to get them are just as big. Then the +3 on fhp is nice, he got a lot of stuff 😎
I think the biggest wins are that Hashogeki takes more drive meter away from opponents and is more safe on block than previously. Finally have the tools to crack open heavy blockers.
I think the denjin charge and the target combo cancels are massive. He’s gonna knock you down in the corner, get denjin, and be plus enough to press a medium that will also leave him plus. Its mad scary to press on him now, a punish counter into of hashogeki = death ☠️ honestly better to see if they are willing to throw loop you and then try a jump
Finally… a character I like in a fighting game is actually good. I’ve been cursed with every character that I like in a fg being mid tier at best but my boy Ryu has been GIGA BUFFED! No more being outshined by ken
And they'll still downplay Ryu. He was already a very good character, just over shadowed by Luke doing the same thing even better. Meanwhile, Ken's run DP buff isn't nearly as cool as they made it look. The OD dragon lash combo only seems to work off of target combo, not heavy jinrai. So you're spending 2 bars to do 150 more damage than the old target combo, run DL, H DP. The run DP does seem a bit easier to get from H kick punish counter at least.
Well its out of throw range, he has to walk up to enforce a strike/throw mixup so its not that oppressive imo, its not as good as dragon lash for example. It has 20 su, is jumpable, DI’able, not that hard to parry..i dont think this buff is THAT great, just useful because at +1 its pretty bad The ability to keep his denjin charge and the TC’s that cancel into charge are much more dangerous imo
The dmg output against Akumas low health is def incouraging! It just depends on how dominant Akuma is So far, from what ive seen, ryu is better than ken and luke, i honestly think he is
@@iZonkGaming2021 Luke maybe the worst shoto character in S2 5HP is a big buff, but would any Luke players want to change this buff for those nerf? I guess not Most of the big combo routes in match up are not start with 5HP, it start with 2MP, 4HK or 2HP 5HP only use as big combo starter when shimmy Whiff punish big mistake Lucky jump in Times will tell
Nah, Ryu deserves every buff and then some. This past year has been a struggle dealing with the stuff other characters have been able to do. Ryu had to fly to where others could walk, too. Now, hopefully, in season 2 and beyond, Ryu can get some respect put back on his name and let people know who the real main character is 😂
Im doing the Luke patch next, almost done and bro…they def nerfed him and with these massive buffs to ryu, im pretty sure Ryu is the better shoto rn! Holy shit who woulda thought that
Damn they went in hard to make Ryu Good, wow...
As it should be. He's still the main protagonist of SF.

He can have an actual fireball war now.

Oh wow had no clue he got buffed so much. Tempting to try him out.
Oh my RYU is a GOD NOW
He’s good bro, im stunned as a parttime Ryu player myself 😅 I think he can compete now at the highest level for sure

Giga buffed is accurate haha if you take these buffs and add the hashogeki buffs from last minor update, he is so much better now then at launch
And they'll still downplay Ryu. He was already a very good character, just over shadowed by Luke doing the same thing even better.

I think Ryu is atleast as good as Ken and Luke now, might be better. If i had to pick now for a tournament in 3 months? In picking ryu
Now Ryu just spam solar plexus since its +3 on block, which is instant mixup game 😐
Well its out of throw range, he has to walk up to enforce a strike/throw mixup so its not that oppressive imo, its not as good as dragon lash for example. It has 20 su, is jumpable, DI’able, not that hard to parry..i dont think this buff is THAT great, just useful because at +1 its pretty bad

Hopefully ryu can beat akuma

@@iZonkGaming2021 Luke maybe the worst shoto character in S2

Most of the big combo routes in match up are not start with 5HP, it start with 2MP, 4HK or 2HP
5HP only use as big combo starter when
shimmy
Whiff punish big mistake
Lucky jump in
Times will tell
i think they went a little overboard with this stuff, they turned him into a menace
