Properly spaced bair and fair I believe are safe. If you're on the grown and your opponent shields, try to throw in a light utilt before a heavy ftilt. Should break their shield

Double tap and then release. Also, if your planned follow up is a t.srk, you don't need to dash forward. Just input the t.SRK and it will cancel into a true combo.

Actually, I was wrong... Seems you can drop shield in the middle of being hit by a metsu. I'm doubtful that you have enough shieldstun to pull that combo off... And even if you can, I doubt very many good ryu's will give you the opportunity

I'm not sure on the precise numbers, but you cannot drop shield durring the animation of a metsu if you are hit by one

1.5*(% damage) or 1.5*(.4)(% damage)? 1.5 multiplied by damage makes sense, but I'll have to verify this means that light dtilt gives floor(1.5 * 1.6) = 2 frames, enough to combo into a second buffered l.dtlit If you are hit into the air by a move - such as l.uptilt by example, you do...

Does anyone know precisely how Ryu's moves modify hitstun, if at all? Surely down tilt, a one percent move, should have 0 frames of hitstun. Perhaps hitstun is round to +inf, but I don't think this accounts for all the hitstun I have encountered. If no one has studied this, I might get myself...

Down throw too, if, I recall correctly. Remember, you have to time both throws correctly in order to hit luma in her transit

Anything that comes before the (T)SRK understage is pretty easily punishable. If you manage to connect the second hit I'm sure that nair is effective

This is really weird, and certainly very useful for Ryu. Any option that leads into TSRK is in my book. And I echo the same sentiment: certainly this can't be new. However, where is any information on this tech?

I mean any button attack comes out faster than c stick, so theoretically L would work fine. C stick is fine for setting up combos if you only want to hit once tho.

By the way, downtilt is a lot easier to combo into itself with the a-button. I'm not sure exactly why this is the case but you can easily verify it for yourself.

C-stick set to attack is a must. It allows you to perform directional rising nairs, which is super important

I just realized while making this that this could be something that all characters have and I'm about to make a major fool out of myself, but whatever: I'm in class right now and can't test this. I honestly can't believe I've noticed this before, but I need some sort of confirmation/information...

Interesting, these seem like good options against less experience players. Is the tek required to pull it off worth it?

For #1, almost all of his tilts. Unless a move cancels momentum, it will slide. Hence the point of a perfect pivot, a slide that can be cancelled into a move.
