Expect more updated combo guides in the future. Annotations are in the video description. Thanks for watching!

[@19HajimeSaitou91]

10:09 skype sound noticed only that lol

[@l.r.7505]

Hey Vesper I found with ryu vt1 activated you double ex fire ball. So basic mp,crp>ex fb>ex fb. Loving S3 so far, my boy's ryu and nash are back.

[@amassasa]

I need a Karin guide U.U

[@VesperArcade]

Yeah we skipped the double ex fireball because it wasn't worth the bar.

[@Krazy_Kenny]

VesperArcade kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHympH2FZcpkodk

[@riccardocarlini1746]

Nothing more satisfying than seeing a slow mo EX donkey kick. Thank you

[@mir2266]

Sorry guys, I made a couple of mistakes during the video editing process. If you see anything weird on screen make sure to look at the description text below the video. Every combo is correct over there. I'll make sure to check better next time!

[@swiftyxrd]

Just saying, this should probably be pinned.

[@phosphorescenceking6114]

By the way, the corner combo v-trigger 1 canceling the target combo into light Shoryu then ex Shoryu? You can put a back hard kick before the light Shoryu and it still works the same. Both hits of the back hard kick, specifically. I don't think it does much more damage, but it does a lot more stun. Also, due to the properties of wall bounces in this game, Ryu gets bigger combos off of ex Donkey Kick if he's in the corner. So, say you do the target combo in the corner and activate trigger and reset with a medium punch, then dash underneath to get a crossup. You can do stand strong, crouch fierce, ex Donkey Kick, back roundhouse (both hits), ex Shoryu. Conversely, Ryu's juggles are worse if his opponent is the one in the corner after the wall bounce, just like Abigail's ex command grab.

[@surumeman7195]

10:09 I looked at my discord twice

[@jkoch6599]

s.hk CC s.mp, s.hp, s.hk (target combo) is very reliable for me and the range is good

[@mhamedali2181]

Wow just wow that was amazing man

[@LokeshKumar-sk3wd]

Superb tutorial. Please add all character combos in future.

[@antonioanderson3670]

This vídeo is great!!make more vídeos like this!

[@Danyboyx]

Really good video man

[@devsf4]

Sick stuff guys!

[@NURCU]

Perfect

[@Silvereyeshot]

3:30 has it listed as a LK after the counter hit but is LP

[@WilliamFAlmeida]

This is great. Thanks

[@josepartida1711]

Thanks vesper Trying to learn Ryu after guile took me to silver Ryu is definitely harder to use

[@snipersev0743]

Well done video

[@TheCrazyToontowner]

at 8:51 you dont actually have to spend EX on the second DP if your in VT1, you can juggle a second LP DP, but in VT2 you have to burn the EX to get a juggle.

[@gxqx797]

Snuffychris605 correctamundo. You can also cancel the 2nd LP DP in the juggle to a CA... so if opponent is in the corner and u have full resources; it aint a bad option :)

[@elatic6377]

how about if you don't have full resources. He probably was thinking for damage

[@gxqx797]

AnimeFunnies-TV full resources is only for CA... if u have one EX bar and Vt1 then ofcourse ex shoryu juggle is best for damage :)

[@TheCrazyToontowner]

Gx Qx I felt he still shoulda mentioned it, so for example if you didnt have any meter youd still get some damage.

[@gxqx797]

Snuffychris605 yh inwasnt disagreeing with u bro... just offering another combo potential as you were :)

[@AbsolutelyAbsurDDD]

Great combo guide. Not sure if its just me, but 4:43 seems like the inputs shown on screen are not even close to what's being done

[@Spleenatron9]

notation at 1:25 is wrong, you didn't change it for the DP version.

[@MailMayne]

Thanks man

[@millly1]

You got a lot of character to go through. Are you planing on doing one patch note one day and a combo video the day after?

[@kirilkenobi5691]

thanks ) nice

[@nicethelyrical1529]

Will you do a video explaining what you can and can't do with VT1 and VT2.. for example. Is the fireball still the same in VT2 as in VT1?

[@power_serg2122]

I'm trying really hard to do these combos, but man it's tough. I need to keep trying.

[@kuanlimputera]

POWER_Serg yeah with frequently a short practice you're going to master it. Doing linking at this game isn't so hard compare to street fighter iv.

[@neohunterX]

I haven't touched SFV since season 1 lol Your old guides are still relevant right? Wanna play some Alex.

[@sweetlemonade123]

Are some of this combos not possible now? Like ex tatsu into ex dp stuff?

[@jesse1up]

Hey on that v trigger 2 when activated and I counter ryu don’t do the punch after he just counters how do I get the punch

[@Legotankt34]

Are there any specific ones here that won't work in SF 4? Not sure if it's my incompetence or the game itself. I've only gotten the first one so far.

[@emc0075]

Hi Vesper can you do BnB combos for Ken please

[@lfgamble3924]

Lol. It took probly 2 hours of just trial and error. I come from nrs games. Where u hit the entire string, and the entire string comes out. In this game u basically wait for each ti come out. In hearing myself explain it, it doesnt SEEM like that big of a deal. But its huge.

[@xravia79]

Sweet. I wanna see what cool Chun Li stuff you find

[@ustinodj]

Why is Ryu's most important BnB not in here? The amazing reset proven by vesper himself, EX donkey kick into reset into solar plexus?

[@charlieraaa6381]

Always been ryu and still will be even if he is low tier

[@danielrojas1416]

You can do one for ken? :)

[@SkySesshomaru]

What about the corner VT1 3 bars combo? It ends with 2 EX Hadouken and EX Shoryuken

[@4235koko]

That combo does insane stun.

[@angelagordon7039]

How do you input DP after c.lk,c.lp? The timing on it seems so strict. I am using a stick and still find this rough... any help would be great

[@TidusTsunami]

you should be holding down forward when hitting c.lp and using the shortcut for dp:down forward to down to down forward

[@Erox006]

Are some of these combos still possible in current SFV ? some of these not seem to work , Also you are showing very difficult combos on the early ones and some really easy ones in middle (for beginners) This is disheartening people as you can see from the comment section .

[@FlackooPretty]

How do you charge the fireball?

[@khalidpapa6299]

Hold P after doing the motion for the fire ball while in VT1

[@Pandabearmadness]

I'm sorry i like to think of myself as a decent sf player but i don't understand crush counters or hit confirms. Could anyone put it in layman's terms for me. I do both of those things instinctively or naturally but I don't really understand it.

[@Pandabearmadness]

Also whiff publishes

[@MrIrishMoore1]

Crush counter is a counter hit with a specific button like heavy punch or heavy kick that that does extra damage and puts opponent in longer hit stun. Hit confirm is visually seeing your attack hit the opponent so you know to press the next button. If it doesn't hit you know not to press another button so you don't get punished. Whiff punish is punishing the opponent after they whiff an attack. Most times a normal button will extend their hit box giving you an opportunity to hit them as they recover

[@Pandabearmadness]

Matt Moore thank you both,

[@custommedia8677]

WHAT MEAN DP PP ON V2...?

[@leonardchaves3128]

Akuma! Please!

[@ankurverma4839]

Ryu needs more conversions when opponent is crouching

[@dansolo6417]

Lol they take away offline fm then reduce the amount of fm you get for missions and make you gamble fm!!! I’m glad I made new account and farmed fm ready for this and next season

[@doge4243]

Dat discord ping at 10:09

[@AyoMrB]

I checked Discord when that went off xD

[@HoseB932]

same

[@andrewstark1320]

No meaties :( ?

[@jesusacevedo4635]

Excelent , plz menat

[@Despiporri]

How can i understand all of this combos if i don't even know what does C.LK, C.LP XX HP DP what the fk is that? xD

[@pianomansjpm]

Do people not use Number Pad Notations for stick positions in Street Fighter? I personally think 236 is much quicker to pick up that qcf, but maybe that’s just me.

[@AutobotShiesty]

PLZ PLZ PLZ I NEED A GUIDE FOR ALEX

[@Ratchet25]

His V-trigger and EX combos aren't really worth the resources unless you're certain that it's going to stun or kill.

[@kraize6440]

Why is it that CAPCOM made Ryu too weak comparable to KEN? Ryu supposed to have new skills as well since he's been training all his life.

[@singaporestrayan6384]

RIP Ryu V trigger combos ): The damage is just not worth it anymore ):

[@aspreedacore]

that 500 dmg v trig combo at the end tho, also RYU RISE UP *cries* I won't rise up with you but alongside you

[@CNRhKXtreme]

The damage on that last combo. :|

[@Farm4Gold]

Fuck bro even the first combo is too hard for me.

[@AftershockPS3]

Pride of Japan > RYU not a popular Pride of USA > GUILD very popular

[@koolkid.7552]

Playing with ryu on a pad is awful.

[@AverageBrawlEnjoyer]

"ryu doesnt have combos in this game"

[@rubenberrios6777]

Really then what is this video about?

[@discource3221]

Would like a more simple guide not a bunch of fucking letters I don’t understand

[@carlosmendoza6906]

No like combos, bether on line

[@andreabalestrieri443]

Stupid combos for ryu

[@Menace6ix]

He still sucks takes diago a evo champ to make him look ok. For the rest of us better off picking akuma

[@peacockmusicpage]

V trigger 2 sucks

[@MuhammedAli-gj8qw]

It's still sucks
