THE BEST RYU PLAYER IS ONLY 17 YEARS OLD!?

[@BronzeAgePepper]

thinking of EndingWalker finally getting Ed gives me the same feeling of fear as Tokido getting Akuma. 2024 isn't so far away...

[@han3wmanwukong125]

Can't wait!

[@vapersmith7859]

Ryu players impress me because in order to be a good Ryu player you have to be true to the core of Street Fighter no short cuts or otherwise. This is probably the most impressive 17 year old I've heard of in Street Fighter if I'm honest sounds like when Nuckle Du entered the scene!
