The sickest Ken gameplay on the internet.

Da illest Ken there is.

[@snowys4168]

Right there with Sajam being too quick to hit confirm the matchmaking popup. I only manage to dodge wifi players like 20% of the time.

[@deice3]

I don't even dodge Wifi symbols, I feel it has very little to do with actual internet quality where I live. Supposed wired players have connection problems equally often (likely since a wired 4G/5G router will be shown as wired in-game). It does mean I have low trigger finger to stop at one and done, if there is any hiccup AND I see Wifi.

Couldn't imagine playing fighting games when I had covid, let alone streaming them. Hope you're doing well.

[@Armitage01101]

The run stop adds like 30 damage to the crMK +... +target combo + tatsu/dp/lash. It's way easier to just go into crMK +cr MP + target combo etc. than to risk flubbing the runstop.

[@GuitarSlayer136]

The fact that an "s" wasn't added to Master in the title is a rare Sajam L imo.

hell yea, nonstop bangers on the road to master

Road to KEN MASTERS!!

[@billmore6486]

How are you able to play so many fighting games. on top that, be able commentate on alot of them too? I know it's a ton of practice, but wow master rank on multiple characters.

[@snowys4168]

He's a Gamer. Also it's his job and Master rank is only the top 2% of players. SFV highest rank is the top 0.5%, as comparison. Master rank isn't easy to get, but Sajam has been at this for like a decade now and all that experience accumulates. I'm not trying to say it's no big deal Sajam is gonna get master rank with every character, but it's because he is a very very very very good gamer, not because he's a god gamer. Also I think street fighter has the least amount of differences between characters of most fighting games? Like 75% of the cast is shoto and everyone is going for light light special, level 3 all deals the same damage, combos are all dr cancels, etc. He didn't take all the gg strive characters to celestial although he definitely could.

[@billmore6486]

@@snowys4168 Oh right thanks for explanation. I guess it's all skill checks and and knowledge. I just assumed switching characters requires you to learn a whole new mental flowchart. But if 75% translates between each character I guess it's more doable.

[@Armitage01101]

Also easy punish for flubbed DPs: crHP cancel into heavy kick Jinrai, OD dragonlash, HP DP. Does 3800. If you don't want the side switch you can just do L1 super instead of HP DP.

[@kirkshammett94]

Ken is honestly hard AF to play well. I main him and have tried almost every other character and he’s definitely tough to master

[@imtx_xmti]

He is THE definition of a balanced all rounder, nothing especially toxic (maybe dr heavy punch), just solid strong tools that are better then other characters, so he isn’t a character that would carry you like Honda and JP, but is really good and someone solid would do especially well with him

[@acecun6202]

@@imtx_xmtiHe definitely is a character that can carry you. The learning process is steep because the reality of it is, is that he’s a character that doesn’t really have a flow chart anymore. He can literally confirm off everything and I mean everything and get TONS of pressure of anything. A regular standing jab can easily turn into a corner carry that gives you OKI on top of knocking 30% off your health. He’s versatile, fluid, powerful, and most importantly safe. A lot of his usual pokes or strings come from a place where he’s either safe due to his string leaving him just out of punish range or he’s safe because he’s choosing to poke you from downtown Detroit with his cMk which he’s going to immediately confirm into his dash or drive rush.

[@heroicsquirrel3195]

@@imtx_xmtihes toxic af and can and does carry many talentless bums, one of the most op characters in the game ffs. In the first two weeks of the game i tried placements with ken and got plat 2, every other character i tried got put in gold or lower, i was a super silver player in sfv, he carried me up n over a mountain 😂

[@heroicsquirrel3195]

@@acecun6202exactly, you understand and the worst is that these kens are everywhere actually thinking theyre good and outplaying people, we will see after the nerf how they play

[@TheGameVerse]

​@@heroicsquirrel3195ah yes, thats a good plan. Wait 10 more months for the patch rather than learn the matchup. That'll show those Ken players 😅. Kens strengths arent even all that evident at low levels. Im in plat and Kens are essentially interchangeable with Ryus at this level. Plenty of characters that can carry people through silver/gold/plat better than Ken

[@GunslingProductions]

I wish you a speedy recovery sajam

[@Mr.Faust3]

the road to kenough

[@BooAxe]

Does anyone know why Jamie's don't just chug as much as possible when they're full screen? Is there a cooldown on his chug? I always see them take a drink and then stop and come back in

[@Sandberry]

It has some recovery on it and there's always a risk someone will drive rush in and blow you up for it, or throw a projectile you can't block or parry in time.

[@tootsie_]

It's safer to take multiple drinks than one big chug. If you take two quick drinks, between the drinks you can parry, block and do other actions as needed. I'm pretty sure you also gain drinks slower by chugging

[@chimpmasterflex]

A lot of the times you just let your opponent back in, on your ass. Drive rush is an option too, but there's more niche cases like where cammy can level 3 him after certain mid-screen combos if he tries to drink. Manon can also kick him in the face faster than you'd think. I'm sure ken can run dp and there might be more. Pretty much only time he can take multiple swigs safely is off punish counter heavy kick(?) and palm. He may not be hit for some of his drinks, but it's such a big risk with minimal payout.

[@dannysmithiv570]

Sajam asks who’s at work watching the stream as I sit at work watching this video. He knows me so well ☺️

[@AntLeonardi01]

It’s a shame we never get to see Sajam enter tournaments.

[@ensanesane]

There's still his old injustice tourney footage if you want to reminisce

[@AntLeonardi01]

eh... nah ... I played that game. It was crap lol. Last NRS game I gave a go honestly.

[@FFxStrife]

1:27:00 Can anyone explain why Ken didn't hit the wall and get stunned here? That's supposed to happen if you're in burnout right?

[@williamweller3620]

If the DI connects while they're in blockstun they won't get stunned. If you look on the right side of the screen it says "lock" which means ken was in blockstun. Basically you can't do a true blockstring into di you have to leave a gap

[@tangramman]

3:03 look! It's Xavier: Renegade Angel!

I thought based on the title you were gonna make your player name Shoryu-Ken but this is good too XD

[@FinalBossJelly]

I don't mind losing, but I'll sometimes one and done when I get put against someone who is so clearly vastly above my skill level that I'm not really gonna learn anything from the beat down. I'm a lower ranked player and improving slowly but surely, so fighting someone who's better than me helps to learn my weaknesses, but when someone picks you apart so thoroughly because of a clear massive gulf in skill level then it's hard for me to even begin to understand where anything went wrong, so it's a waste of both of our times to do another set they're just gonna win 2-0 effortlessly again But obviously this is me acknowledging it's because I'm a very low ranked player new to SF6, I feel like anyone up at diamond has far less of an excuse

[@acecun6202]

You’d be surprised there are times where I just have someone’s number two games in a row. And times where I get double perfected and that’s me sitting in Diamond 5 on my main. Such is life
