SF6 ▰ Have You Seen The #1 Ranked Ryu?【Street Fighter 6】

[@dmgeno]

Lore accurate Ryu.

[@Mubarak-11B]

When I play him he's drunk Ryu.

[@AngryVibeZ]

@@Mubarak-11B😂😂😂😂😂

[@TheSpectator64]

What a like from this guy is he uses different combo routes if wants a setup for denjin charge, for more corner carry, for efficient use of drive gauge or just for more optimal damage, a character specialist through and through.

[@BruceT-rg8bp]

It is more like spam gauge instead of drive gauge lol

[@ditch_magnet]

the casual backstep at 8:12 to counter the only button luke has gotten to press since, like, the beginning of the match

[@YoursTrulyLXIX]

Oh my GOD that's the best part of the video 😂

[@docd0071]

This Ryu. Damn. He doesnt care if he is burn out as long as he got good positioning in the corner.

[@yared8771]

The voice actor of Ryu is sooo dam sick

[@Tres_Nueve]

I was about to make this comment, Ryu sounds hardcore in this game

[@Maxime-ng7kd]

Dude thank you for pointing this out now that I listen to him he sounds so good

[@eggimage]

probably COVID but yea he sounded sick

[@floridaman7206]

Fun fact: his english voice actor is Kyle Herbert who also voices adult Gohan from dragonball

[@yared8771]

​@@floridaman7206wow 👌 didn't know that

[@Nadrojsleek]

At 3:32 Jamie flashes blue to parry, and Ryu flashes at the exact same time to drive rush. I've heard that the parry freeze often gives players a medium kick instead of their intended parry. If Paladin did this intentionally, that is some next level strategy.

[@ONI1013.]

Yep notice the same thing. That was impressive. Also watch 7:08, that was even better

[@RootofYishay]

This is how Ryu is to be properly utilized 👊

[@henrysimmons6767]

Agreed

[@jevonsw1]

They way he casually glides backwards like ultra instinct and forces a whiff. I’m stealing that,

[@Caiocsilveira]

Ya the devs are proud of this guy. We are rly tired of that bunch of hadou-shoryu-spam crap in the lobby

[@PilotCharlesCalvin]

so all the tier lists on ryu are made by people that aren’t good enough, unless others are better if they utilise their characters better

[@sairsonat9816]

Pretty much how AI would do anyways.

[@reostars00]

Never seen such refined and polished gameplay like this

[@ptysme]

So many linking options I had no idea. Makes me want to play Ryu!!

[@dominick_sg]

​@georgerosales479not at all! The combos are not that hard, the most difficult part about all of this is deciding WHEN to use and how to approach each combo (not even mentioning memorizing each route lol).

[@NoMoreLies365]

​@dominick_sg claimed its not hard at all then begins to breakdown how hard it is 😂.

[@nanakixiii3]

Jamie: "Today, I think I will drink round start." Ryu: "So you have chosen 40% of your life bar."

[@Dokurofan]

Nice setups and conversions, he's really entertaining to watch ! Thanks for the upload

[@Mamontustel]

this guy makes it his mission to play Ryu like the SF lore intended

[@aboelbeeshgames6180]

It's amazing how many different characters he faced in such high level, which shows you how balanced the game is on such earlier stage of the game's life.. Well done Capcom

[@Vagabond-92]

Game is balanced its just People crying about some characters theydont know how to play against

[@pemegangkoencisyurga]

@@Vagabond-92 meanwhile LTG is still complaining about how to play against Ryu and Ken, and i love it

[@BruceT-rg8bp]

Balanced? The new system gives people to spam... this game is broken

[@mionaruse9450]

​@@BruceT-rg8bpagreed but it can also easily be avoided if playing right.

[@SuraiKitsune]

@@BruceT-rg8bpspam? broken? well, cant wait for all the top players, like this ryu, that only win by spamming. Cant also wait for the tournaments with all the spammers on the top 5 like MenaRD or Punk....

[@gelapxjinkuro]

Damn 2:09 Paladin is playing mind games with that footsies. It's like next level shit of chess tournament finals

[@brandomangamer8293]

The first song is Shin Akuma's theme from Street Fighter Alpha 3.

[@ayara8157]

Fantastic! I love Ryu and hope someone dominates the FGC with him.

[@TwoLuckii]

5:45 Final Fantasy XIII boss battle music. I haven’t heard that in so long ❤

[@adihartono]

That 'Daigo parry' at 0:55 is always a joy to watch

[@TheVirginMeri]

He basically just blocked it lol, Daigo parry would be perfect parries

[@watafulgames]

@@TheVirginMeri No, he was doing the parry, you can see the blue light around Ryu.

[@ZuddyZud]

@@watafulgames There's a difference between parries (which is just holding the button down and you see the blue light you talk about) and perfect parries, which you need to input for every hit, and the game slows down for each block. Think you have seen that once or twice.

[@HaggenKennedy]

@@watafulgames Paladin did the normal parry, not perfect parry. Jimmy has a video where he replicates the Daigo parry with perfect parries, and it's actually insane. Much more difficult to do now than it ever was in the entire history of the SF franchise.

[@watafulgames]

@@ZuddyZud I see, but was a parry and not just a simple block right? Idk how to do in SF6 both of them, but nice to know. Thanks for u explanation.

[@ehsanulaminkhan205]

This is Insane Gameplay with Ryu!! No need to mention his conversions; it speaks for itself. It's almost like the person is on auto-pilot when certain things happen. For example, shoryuken, he rarely misses. Comes out at will. I think having the ability to utilize Shoryuken willingly plays a vital role if you are playing with Ryu. Combos are just perfect every time. Such control over every little thing. For example, Baits, oh my God controller's Baits are just perfectly timed. Puts me to Shame ngl

[@lostsoul7980]

He’s a PC player. So probably using “hitbox” that’s likely the reason why his specials and supers come out so easy

[@lilbenttwig1524]

@@lostsoul7980hitboxes work on my ps5 as well. It’s not just a pc thing

[@YukonJack]

​@@lostsoul7980plenty of players use a hitbox, there's not much downside to it if it feels right.

[@santiagolopezmedina5980]

@@lostsoul7980 You also need to relearn how to play when you take up a hitbox, so is not exactly unfair.

[@winningtechnique1849]

When you say "every time" don't forget this is highlights.

[@HaggenKennedy]

Absolutely ridiculous. What an incredible display of skill. His gameplay is an advanced chess match, and he's two steps ahead of his opponent in every choice he makes. Every combo is optimal. Conversions are flawless. Ample route exploration. Godly reaction times. Impeccable execution. This man isn't a Master, he's a Warlord. It's very hard to be that sharp in the heat of battle. Too many moving pieces, but he pulls it off. Impressive. 👍🏻

[@weiwu2113]

Dude a master piece at this game like he going to check mate u

[@WRILLI4M]

I wonder how hard this guy have trained so far to achieve this level. Must've been a relentless training regimen.

[@agriosbr]

My thoughts exactly..the guy is a machine.

[@listerofsmeg884]

this is what amuses me when people say esports aren't real 'sports', they require just the same level of dedication, tactics, thinking ahead as any other kind of non-athletic sport

[@Goukimane]

This comment is written like dialogue from a Metal Gear Solid game.

[@NBWDOUGHBOY]

These videos always start out with a Perfect.

[@jamesbutler5630]

His fireball cancel into Dr uppercut is nasty I’m stealing that lol😂😂😂😂

[@RJ_400]

The first Ryun player I’ve seen tht utilizes his new moves such as the charge and denji🔥 When he fakes the hadoken with a denji sheeesssshhhhh

[@zainy_inc154]

7:08 was crazy

[@timbathy]

More impressive than his conversions...this person's zoning and footsies is an absolutely work of art

[@Gmork-pb9dl]

Paladin is only 16 yrs old!

[@Alessandro90933]

Oh really. Cool!

[@daddyjayplays31]

The way he fakes that short haduken then capitalize on the opponent's reaction is just insane to me

[@sonoftroy8572]

The final fantasy background music! Nice touch

[@ReverenceQ2]

you have an excellent choice of back ground music on this SF6 uploads 👌👌

[@RonDouglasTV]

1:14 - watch as he reads the situation, crouches, waits, and then jumps at the perfect moment. to counter. This is what it would look like if Ryu himself was playing SF6

[@WRILLI4M]

In fact, this is the absolute closest to how I imagine Ryu would actually fight in other media, like films or TV shows.

[@fujineetomori]

And the match afterwards at 1:50 he starts with a flurry of hadoukens, then baits the last "hadouken" with a hashogeki when he knows the Zangief will jump in order to recover in time for an anti-air

[@SleepySetzer]

Love the Shin Akima sound track from SFZ3, make the fight so much overpowering and intense.

[@tWs-ELEMENOHPEEE]

5:40 FF13 Saber Edge song blended perfectly with that perfect ko. Everything at 7:08 was mind blowing!

[@fatalradius]

Your character is as good as you are. This guy displays that with Ryu.

[@cavc1979]

I learned that when that legend won world's with panda in T7

[@qualthos1]

A true world warrior! Paladin - what a perfect name for a holy and enlightened martial artist.

[@TigreExtremo]

Mom can we have Akuma in SF6? We have Akuma at home Akuma at home: *Ryu with red SFX*

[@yared8771]

03:05 insane, what a beautiful massage gave Paladin to Honda in these few seconds

[@adamwall-r6f]

Is the red hado a mod?

[@yared8771]

​@@adamwall-r6fI think so

[@EliasAlucard]

That's awesome, would love to see him meet Daigo. Dude has the game down to a science, and Daigo has skills too. This reminds me, I need to get an arcade stick just for Street Fighter 6, because this game wasn't meant to play with the DualSense.

[@b3_breaks_free]

What an interesting compilation and music!

[@Shepdoggaming]

To me It seem like the other opponents not fighting back period

[@thelastchoi6217]

7:17 goddamnnn u made just enough meter for the hashogeki super for the game clutch… so goot homahgah😮

damn the drive rush DPs. those are crazy

[@UnfairHunter]

Evil Ryu unlocked🔥

[@Otomeza8]

The animation @ 2:01!! 😵😭 That's cruel and unusual business there, player! Have to burn double the incense and offer extra prayers at the shrine for that poor Zangief! Them's the brakes, I guess?

[@spooky4223]

I like how theres alot of routes he uses that i also use without having seen any gameplay. Theres also alot ive never seen and will need to incorporate.

[@gamenmetrea9144]

Awesome online Street Fighter 6 match. Just installed the game myself.

[@georgehernandez2156]

Man Ryu doesnt have much combos without using his drive gauge.

[@kickroxtv]

FINALLY SOMEONE TO REPRESENT FOR RYU!!!!

[@RushianRichard]

This guy just breaths hit confirms, a new Beast has arisen. 😱

[@mecalegrand3542]

0:55 thats bring back memories...

[@MingoDynasty]

These rounds are too cherry picked... Sure this Ryu player has insane combo and burst potential and is not afraid to blow all 6 bars within 5 seconds of the round starting, but I think we would learn a lot more from watching full matches, so we don't just see the "combo video montage", but also the reads, adaptations, and neutral game.

[@paladin850]

Im the Ryu. I agree. He didn’t show my loses or anything. Some of the vods for these fights are on my channel.

​@@DEPORTKYLEDefinitely still his problem for not giving us this Ryu👀

[@BornInsane0]

Daigos Ryu was never flashy. It was always just solid.

that Chun li parry was insane

[@ninji5226]

So this shows me Ryu isnt that bad if you get the mechanics of the game down to a science. He utilized dr like its second nature. Still think Ryu got hosed in this game but this is proof he can be good.

[@jjschow]

That last one felt personal.

[@Slimbound]

First time I ever watch someone using Saber’s Edge as a background OST in a video.

[@DOGEonPC]

To think that he's casually beating the other opponents at Master rank. There are levels to this game, that's for sure.

[@yann-pennaneac]

holy cow ! the way he blocked the attack of chun li was crazy.

[@onizagru]

They need a training option for combo routes, where you can see the inputs coming like Guitar Hero.

[@faikwok2130]

1:40 Why the drive gauge was fully recovered suddenly?

[@Miffsta]

Guile was dizzied after the Drive Impact blowback to the wall while in Burnout. Notice the Drive Gauge lock during the dizzy. As soon as Ryu starts hitting him, it resets the gauge and with the combo end dropping Guile to the ground, Burnout also ends, and fully replenishes the gauge.

[@voINNOCENTov]

Not a single wake up reversal was used in the making of this video

[@Otherfabbros]
