Im just imagining a hypothetical. Say you’re playing the fireball game, you have your charge, and you can still use normal fireballs. You get a shoryu knockdown and go for the oki. Now imagine if the opponent is around 68% health and goes for a wake up super or so and so, you block, AND YOU STILL HAVE THE CHARGE. The match is pretty much over. Ryu mains rejoice!
Yeah but you would need to have full resources which is the biggest limiting factor here . At the very least if you're low on drive gauge you probably wont kill hut yes it will definitely be close to killing
@@amann9537 Ryu is already the most popular character in the entire game based on statistics that capcom publishes. This buff isnt going to change anything about player count, the people who want to play ryu are already playing ryu, and one qol change on a mid tier isnt gonna make everyone suddenly jump to that character.
I remember one match i was so used to doing a L hashogeki after a L tatsu for plus frames, that i did it while i had denjin charge. Pretty sure that mistake cost me the game then
@@BronzeAgePepper 5HP TC is actually not bad. It's nearly identical reward to canceling into most of Ryu's specials raw and more lenient to single hit confirm on reaction. You still can force a strike throw mixup with DR, which only makes it somewhat less theoretically optimal than canceling into L.Tatsu (Ryu's only special that can get meterless strike throw oki on grounded opponents). 5MP TC is pretty bad yeah, though using it as a space trap on block at the 2nd hit is somewhat underrated.
I think when after the season 2 change, just the presence of denjin charge will make opponent second guess the risk/reward of trying to play fireball war against Ryu. So they should be more likely to pick other options such as jumping. Ryu players will also get massively rewarded once they start practicing 2mk hit confirm into OD denjin hasho, as this will be like staple in season 2.
That's very true. It's gonna be riskier for your opponent to know what you're gonna do once you have Denjin Charge. Crouching medium kick can't be hit confirmed though, so it's used when whiff punishing for its good reach. A good Ryu button that's hit confirmable is standing heavy punch and that can be used with OD Denjin Hashogeki ;)
If that's the only buff he's got, it's not enough for me for a big seasonal patch... All the characters need new tools and new combo routes against the Top Tiers...
Ryu will become T1 character after this buff(pros Ryu could have a chance to shine in competition), may become T0 too if other T0 characters nerf hard, let us wait and see when it drop
Wow Beam. We went from hoping these changes would happen, to it will within a few days of discussions 😂 I’m sure this temporary patch is just an experiment to see if it doesn’t make him a god. So let’s hope this happens 🤞🤞
Sério para o Ryu ficar muito foda nesse jogo,faltou um shoryuken e tatsumaki elétricos , não consigo aceitar essa sacanagem da Capcom com o personagem mais emblemático de street figther....
Sempre falo isso, fera. Ryu é nervado em relação ao Ken. Se colocar todo potencial de Ryu no jogo, nem Akuma é pário p ele. O tatsu e o shoryuken já passou da hora de ser reformulado, é o mesmo deste o street fighter 2. Isso é uma vergonha!
They’re making Denjin Charge spendable only on heavy special moves. You can now use light hadoken and medium hadoken without losing denjin charge and the same goes for light and medium hashogeki.

Exactly ! he already does too much damage and now this buff. All rank matches will be RYU, akuma, JP

It has happened to me too, pretty annoying but with this buff it looks like that pressure scenario will become scarier for the extra damage potential
Also apparently there's word his TCs can cancel into Denjin charge, further completing his gameplan.
Yeah Ryu stonks actually looking good.
That would actually be so sick! His target combo as it is right now is pretty much useless.
@@Beamthegamer target combos PLURAL, I have to unfortunately quote LTG when it comes to HP -> HK and MP -> LK -> HK: "You serve ZERO purpose."
@@BronzeAgePepper Well said

It also gives ryu something else to do against passive zoners. Now any lapse in pressure on ryu let's him charge. Kind of like drinks for jamie
We asked for this for the last year and now we finally got it. Our prayers worked lol

Ryu main and master and I love this buff except Akuma is coming out and I don't see any reason to still play Ryu.
I get that. I'm also gonna be trying out Akuma when he releases.
If that's the only buff he's got, it's not enough for me for a big seasonal patch...

I made a video discussing all the new buffs he got. Check it out if you’re interested: ruclips.net/video/l87uIFkYOCI/видео.htmlsi=x7iFIWNvET9JerTv

It's crazy how things turned out isn't it?
@@Beamthegamer it’s definitely gonna prevent me from using Akuma 😂😂

u didnt even mention what theyare doing?

If that’s his only buff 👎🏾. I mean its gd but he’s still to DR dependent
