MvC3: Ryu - Combo 02 - Simple Bread & Butter Variation

[TheLK4D4]

God i still can't figure out how you play this fucking game.Everytime i try to use Ryu's shroyuken it does hadoken i can't even get that far...most confusing fighting game ever. i will still with Tekken /Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat thanks.

[jdrmanmusiqking]

damn... ryu combos do crazy damage to say they're so simple to do o_O

[888ktan]

is there a secret to the dash?? i can't dash close enough. Is it my timing of the dash tats the problem??

[Algahiem]

I just though I should mention to that this is a mid screen combo. (ie: the opponent must at about mid screen distance). Just an FYI for anyone practising this combo.

[KashgroundTM]

about time this wasnt a high tier character

[90Juch]

how do u shoot hyper hadoken upward

[Naminator236]

@90Juch hold UP after activating the hyper move.

You can also hold DOWn while in air to make it shoot downwards.

[90Juch]

@Naminator236 preciate it man

[90Juch]

i like ryu or wolverine for 3rd character

so i can do hyper after aerial combo in air

[IKEEMBLEM]

Dont know why people never use Ryu, hes great in this game, good damage, attack speed, easy to learn, and excellant supers.

[theroyalpain]

@IKEEMBLEM I've heard several reasons from others: Either it's "he's always been there", "I prefer Akuma/Dante/etc.", or just people cant keep up with his pacing on combos in comparison to others.

[NeoSZboy]

@IKEEMBLEM \It's all about the high tiers

[IKEEMBLEM]

@NeoSZboy I cant stand tiers. All it ends up in is fighting maybe 7 differant fighters all the time online. That means no diversity and that means no fun. Im sick of fighting Sentinel in 90% of my matches, same for storm and magneto.

[NeoSZboy]

@IKEEMBLEM

I guess rather than people being original with there teams, they much rather pick characters that everybody else is using and just mash away

[IKEEMBLEM]

@NeoSZboy They should just balance everyone, health i dont mind but getting killed in 5 hits by sentinel when im pheonix is bull

[NeoSZboy]

@IKEEMBLEM

It's actually pretty balanced, I say that the ones that need some more blancing is Dante, Sentinel, and Wesker

[Raarzorz]

@NeoSZboy Wesker maybe, but the other two not so much lol. People want Dante nerfed because they get styled on by a 90 hit combo with no assists, but to be honest, you do the same damage in 8 hits with Thor. =/ And I think Sentinel is perfect. Why sit there for 20 seconds watching a mega long high damage combo happen, when Sentinel will give you the courtesy of shortening it down to 3 seconds. I love fighting Sentinel. ^ ^

[Raarzorz]

@IKEEMBLEM Pheonix dies from flies landing on her because not only does she have 2 healthbars, both pheonix and DP have healing field. Instant red health regen without tagging out. >.>

[IKEEMBLEM]

@Raarzorz thats true but doesent mean much when your in the middle of a combo and will die in the next 2 seconds anyway

[mynameistnb]

@IKEEMBLEM

not as much movement as akuma. worse fireballs than akuma. no otg. can be a little bland. no airdash.

good but not akuma good and you have to make every single hit count.

[MrSteelersfan54]

@IKEEMBLEM when i fight people who use him they just spam

[IKEEMBLEM]

@MrSteelersfan54 well his circle version hadouken is cheap, I almost never use it, i always do launch combos with his shoryuken and tastsumaki.

[Zimx02]

@IKEEMBLEM It's probably that he's garbage compared to most characters.

[IKEEMBLEM]

@Zimx02 not at all, i singled the whole story mode with him at max difficulty and it was easy. Ryu is way underrated.

[Zimx02]

@IKEEMBLEM Yeah, so did I, but that does not make him good. The computer is easy, and there are characters that far outdo him. You must be knew to the competitive scene.

[IKEEMBLEM]

@Zimx02 Ive been in the pas 3 EVO tournamens and a member of The Fighters Generation, I know plenty. Ryu is a underrated character who I enjoy using and is rock solid with good stats and can hold his own against any other character in the game.

[Zimx02]

@IKEEMBLEM He's got no approach, poor mobility, relatively poor hitboxes, no otgs outside of shinku, sub-par assist. He's deals great damage, so he's usually just a niche character. Alone, he's entirely a mindgames character (which is why I've always loved the character), but that just means that you have to be better than your opponent, and you're always walking on thin ice; any other character with omnipresent hitbox (like all of them) and a good assist can counter him. Middlelow tier at best.

[IKEEMBLEM]

@Zimx02 He is indeed a mindgames character and when using him, using partners with good assists is key. Storm and Wolvering are good choices since if they are blocked it will push the opponet in the corner. Use your partners until the their guard breaks or opens up then rush in with Ryu and the fight will likely be over right there.

[Phaiyte]

@IKEEMBLEM Although I do love using Ryu on my team, I can vouch for anyone that he does have some pretty hindering issues to where in a real competitive scene he just gets blown away. Also the computer on any fighting game isn't something to go by when talking about an individual's skill level. An example of a really good character in this game would be something more like Chun-Li or Spencer. Those two along with Wesker will probably be my new team soon as well.

[undrtakr9991]

@IKEEMBLEM i think its cuz when people first play as him they dont really know how to use him to his full potential. hes has all these great moves...like an unexperienced player with him would say hes tool slow and broken. but hes really a great character. i love using him

[OvaNineThousand]

@IKEEMBLEM

People don't like him 'cause he doesn't have great mobility, and his range is medium-poor. He's a great character, indeed, but if the player doesn't know how to get in, he's useless.

[Firespiritmars]

@IKEEMBLEM too hard to land the first hit, easier with other characters. just saying.

[ZXShadow1]

@IKEEMBLEM People see Akuma and automatically think he's better, which is not the case. Akuma has stronger attacks and may have the strongest lvl 3 (does 485,000 dmg) But Akuma is slower and a bit harder to use. Akuma's Aerial Tatsumaki Zankyukyaku does not hover like Ryu's, plus Ryu's Shinku Hadouken has more areas to aim then Akuma's Mesattsu Gohadou. It really all depends on the person.

[DoubleAsian616]

@ZXShadow1 I don't agree with some of the things you're saying. Akuma IS faster than Ryu, he has the fastest walk speed in the game, and his normals are obnoxiously fast. Ryu has better hitbox oriented normals. Yes Ryu's Tatsu floats, but it's not safe at all in the air, whereas Akuma's are. Akuma is suited for the diehard rush down players, he's definitely more difficult to use than Ryu who is user friendly to all levels of play. Not to mention his SIMPLE punish combos do 400K+ with no effort.

[ZXShadow1]

@DoubleAsian616 Well, you're probably right about the speed thing. And yeah, it really does depend on the person playing. (I never really tried to compare their speed, so I just assumed Akuma was slower). And yeah, Ryu's combos are very good, very good for beginners. But like I said before, people see Akuma and automatically think he's better, and that Ryu is useless compared to Akuma. Which is not the case. Did you know that their buffing him up in UMvC3?

[DoubleAsian616]

@ZXShadow1 "Most" people jumped on the band wagon when MVC3 was released. They assume things because of appearances. And yeah, I'm well aware Ryu is getting buffed. He's probably the 2nd most imrproved character next to Capt America. I use Ryu extensively on one of my teams. Ryu Magneto Wesker., with Mag's Hyper Grav assist, Ryu is opened up to wonders of combos, and with a nice OTG by wesker, it makes for a solid relaunch. I can probably do a 32-hit combo, no meter. About 600K.

[ZXShadow1]

@DoubleAsian616 Yes pretty good team. Right now, I'm trying to experiment with teams for a bit. But before my team was Felicia, Zero, and Akuma. And I used Zero's Shippuga assist to help Felicia extend her combos often.

Sorya Sorya Orya I want some pound cake Sorya Orya Sorya Orya

Shinkuu..

HADOOOKEN.

[OverKiiiillll]

@Karmoon7 for the longest time when i was a kid, it sounded like he was saying "i wunt sum pumpkin"

[Xerolimits89]

how do you dash that far after the wall bounce kick? cant seem to follow up after

[want2learn2sing]

@Xerolimits89 quater circle both punches

[PrimalLight2323]

@want2learn2sing quarter circle + 2xpunch would execute his shinku hadouken, to dash quickly just tap two attack buttons at the same time.

[ashimoshuken]

do u need to be near the corner to follow the mule kick with H or you can also be mid-screen?

[norcal69sf]

@ashimoshuken lol mule kick! thats what i call it too! hahaha

[CashOnDelivery4]

idk about the simple part

[Onrar]

I can't seem to get the dash H to connect, am I just sucking or is there some trick to it?

[ricebox360]

how do you perform the cross-sidekick move? the move that sends his opponents bouncing off the wall. - Thanks in advance.

[EfanOne]

@ricebox360

reverse dragon punch notation + any attack button

[ricebox360]

@EfanOne Thanks alot.

[OlMickNasty]
