Ryu

Ryu only has one goal in life: to perfect his skills and become the ultimate martial artist. A fairly aloof warrior, Ryu continually travels the globe in search of stronger and stronger opponents to help him achieve this goal. After defeating Sagat for the World Champion Street Fighter title, he was considered by most to be the most powerful fighter in the world. And yet, Ryu's true potential may still remain untapped, and only a glimpse of it was seen in his climactic battle with Shadaloo's leader, M. Bison. Only time will tell if Ryu can avoid being swallowed up by the dangerous power of the Satsui no Hado...

In a nutshell

Ryu epitomizes the saying of "A minute to learn, a lifetime to master" the most of any Street Fighter character. Ryu has all the basic tools you need: great normals, a projectile, an effect anti-air, Focus Attack Dash Cancel (FADC) combos, etc. But as a result, he has very few gimmicks and shenanigans. You can get by playing Ryu with a solid understanding of his basic strategy, but learning Ryu at the highlest level requires very solid mind games and very solid fundamentals.

Moves

Standing Close Normals

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Close LP	Close Jab	Close lp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ A quick elbow to the opponent. Like other close jabs/LPs, wihffs on crouchers sometimes. I find it easier to combo to a c.HP on a standing opponent using this. Chain, special and super cancellable.
File:No image.png	Close MP	Close Strong	Close mp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Punch to the gut. Unsafe on block if you don't cancel it to something else. Special and super cancellable.
File:No image.png	Close HP	Close Fierce	Close hp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Not used often outside of combos. Unsafe if you don't cancel. Special and super cancellable.
File:No image.png	Close LK	Close Short	Close lk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ A low kick to the shin. Tiny bit unsafe on block.
File:No image.png	Close MK	Close Forward	Close mk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ A knee to the opponent's stomach. Not really used much. Special and super cancellable.
File:No image.png	Close HK	Close Roundhouse	Close hk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Axe kick that hits twice. Good damage.

Standing Far Normals

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Far LP	Far Jab	lp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Quick jab with short range. Special and super cancellable. Against some characters with rushing attacks (some rekkas, honda headbutt, etc.) you can throw out jabs at random to stop them.
File:No image.png	Far MP	Far Strong	mp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ A straight punch with good range. Decent poke. Also can make a good anti-air. Special cancelable, so cancel it to a Hadoken on block to get some free damage.
File:No image.png	Far HP	Far Fierce	hp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Does a ton of damage and stun, makes a good whiff punisher if you're in the range.
File:No image.png	Far LK	Far Short	lk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ A quick kick into the air diagonally. Decent anti-air if you can time it right.
File:No image.png	Far MK	Far Forward	mk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Decent range side kick. Doesn't move him forward like his Evil counterpart does, but is still a decent move.
File:No image.png	Far HK	Far Roundhouse	hk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Makes a good anti-air if the opponent is jumping in from afar.

Crouching Normals

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Crouch LP	Crouch Jab	d + lp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Combo extender/starter. Chain, special, and super cancellable.
File:No image.png	Crouch MP	Crouch Strong	d + mp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Crouching straight punch. Really good on your opponent's wakeup, since it gives frame advantage on hit or block, and stuffs a lot of stuff if used preemptively. Combos into plenty of other moves on hit. Special and super cancelable.
File:No image.png	Crouch HP	Crouch Fierce	d + hp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ A uppercut. Good anti air/crossup if you think a Shoryuken will miss, however NEVER use this on the ground (Unless you are going to cancel it) as the recovery is horrible.
File:No image.png	Crouch LK	Crouch Short	d + lk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Rapid-fire combo starter with short range.
File:No image.png	Crouch MK	Crouch Forward	d + mk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ The shoto-patented c.MK. Good for spacing, can cancel it into a Hadoken to continue pressure/chip, and used in bread n butter combos. Good range, and hits low, but don't get predictable with these as they can be punished on whiff. Special and super cancelable.
File:No image.png	Crouch HK	Crouch Roundhouse	d + hk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Sweep kick. Sometimes used as a combo ender or punisher. Unsafe on block, so don't throw this out at random.

Neutral Jumping Normals

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Neutral Jump LP	Neutral Jump Jab	u + lp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ (No uses/strategies)
File:No image.png	Neutral Jump MP	Neutral Jump Strong	u + mp

Diagonal Jumping Normals

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Diagonal Jump LP	Diagonal Jump Jab	ub / uf + lp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ (No uses/strategies)
File:No image.png	Diagonal Jump MP	Diagonal Jump Strong	ub / uf + mp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ The preferred air-to-air move. Hits twice. The first hit can be cancelled into an Air Tatsumaki for a bit more damage. Depending on how many hits you get, you can juggle different moves. If it only hits once, they go into a free juggle state in which basically anything will hit them. If you get two hits, you can only followup with:
File:No image.png	Diagonal Jump HP	Diagonal Jump Fierce	ub / uf + hp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ (No uses/strategies)
File:No image.png	Diagonal Jump LK	Diagonal Jump Short	ub / uf + lk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Crosses up.
File:No image.png	Diagonal Jump MK	Diagonal Jump Forward	ub / uf + mk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Crosses up.
File:No image.png	Diagonal Jump HK	Diagonal Jump Roundhouse	ub / uf + hk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ The best jump in to do from long-range/not crossing up.

Unique Attacks

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Collarbone Breaker	Overhead	f + mp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Ryu punches downward. Hits high, meaning that a crouching opponent has to stand up to block it. Also hits twice, so that people can't (regular) focus if they see it coming, however it is rather slow. It makes good use at the end of a blockstring if your opponent likes to block your blockstrings crouching. It is possible to combo afterwards, but it must hit in the last active frames of the attack and be properly spaced.
File:No image.png	Solar Plexus Strike	Rocket Punch	f + hp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Ryu moves a little forward and punches forward. Hits twice, so it also breaks regular focus. On hit, leaves you a small window of time to combo afterwards, usually the Shoryuken for ease of use.

Focus Attacks

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Focus Attack (Level 1)	Level 1 Focus	mp + mk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ (No uses/strategies)
File:No image.png	Focus Attack (Level 2)	Level 2 Focus	mp + mk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ (No uses/strategies)
File:No image.png	Focus Attack (Level 3)	Level 3 Focus	mp + mk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ (No uses/strategies)

Throws

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Shoulder Throw	Forward Throw	f or n + lp + lk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ (No uses/strategies)
File:No image.png	Somersault Throw	Back Throw	b + lp + lk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ (No uses/strategies)

Special Moves

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Hadoken	Fireball	qcf + p ex
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Ryu throws a blue ball of energy at his opponent. An integral move in Ryu's basic strategy. The only difference between the regular hadokens is their speed: LP goes the slowest while HP goes the fastest, and MP is in between. Does ok damage, and is relatively safe on block when spaced properly. Always end your blockstrings with a Hadoken for chip damage, also if you're not sure if a Shoryuken as a combo ender will connect. The EX version hits twice, knocks down, and is pretty safe in general (also lights the opponent on fire as an aesthetic effect). In a fireball war with enough meter you can throw an EX fireball to pass through the opponent's regular fireball to hit them and knock them down, allowing you to move freely for a short time.
File:No image.png	Shoryuken	Uppercut/Dragon Punch	dp + p ex
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Ryu does an upper which is fully invincible, follows up with a rising punch, then remains completely defenseless as he falls back to the ground. The Hadoken's best friend. If your opponent jumps over your Hadoken late, this is the go-to special. The LP version takes care of most of your anti-air purposes, however does not have as much invincibility as the MP and HP counterparts. Also great for stopping pressure as it starts up really quickly and knocks the opponent down and away. However, like all great-momentum breakers, its easily punishable on block, so don't do "psychic DPs" too often unless you have the meter to back it up! (even then, don't do that all that often either, as if the opponent blocks and you FADC forward, then its -5). The LP and MP versions are focus/super cancelable, which can save your butt if you guess wrong. HP version isn't, so NEVER use the HP version unless you are ending a combo/going for a chip KO. The EX version of the Shoryuken hits twice and is FADCable on the first hit. In Ultra, the juggle properties of the EX was changed, so you can reset the opponent after you FADC it (ie: EX Shoryu FADC jump HP)
File:No image.png	Tatsumaki Senpukyaku	Hurricane Kick	qcb + k ex armorbreak
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Ryu advances with a spinning kick that will knock down the opponent if it hits. The kick button used determines the distance and length. Dodges fireballs for a good portion of the move duration a little bit before startup, but it cannot hit crouching opponents. Gives a lot of corner carry, so it makes a good combo ender on standing opponents if you want to push them to the corner. The EX version is identical to his Shinku Tatsumaki super from the Alpha/Marvel series. It doesn't move forward, but makes a good counter like a shoryuken. Does a ton of damage, and knocks the opponent across the entire screen, and can be followed up in the corner.
File:No image.png	Air Tatsumaki Senpukyaku	Air Hurricane	(in air) qcb + k ex
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Ryu does his Tatsumaki in the air. Changes his air trajectory when used, however, it can't be used as a corner escape like in previous SF4 versions. On hit, you can followup with a EX Hadoken or a Shinku Hadoken. The EX version completely stops him while in the air for a time, then dropping down to the ground. Makes a good safety if you make a bad jump decision (ie accidentally jump back on a fireball that could KO you)

Super Combo

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Shinku Hadoken	Super Combo	qcf qcf + p
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ An upgraded version of his Hadoken. Hits 5 times, does good damage, causes a hard knockdown. Can be a combo ender after his Hadoken and Shoryuken, not so much his Tatsumaki except for certain situations.

Ultra Combos

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Metsu Hadoken	Ultra Combo I	qcf qcf + 3p
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ (No uses/strategies)
File:No image.png	Metsu Shoryuken	Ultra Combo II	qcf qcf + 3k armorbreak

Strategy

Mastering Hadoken

While Ryu is a jack-of-all-trades that can perform well at any distance, it should come as no surprise that his best position is long-range zoning, and learning how to implement his use of Hadokens at is critical to mastering Ryu.

Your main strategy as a Ryu player will be to capitalize on your opponent's mistakes, so make sure you watch your opponent's reactions carefully. If they simply block, they'll be putting you in the most favorable position by taking chip damage and giving you time to inch forward and maintain pressure.
