Control Set-up for Ryu - How to do Weak Tilts and Strong Tilts easier

[Yikarur]

hi guys, I'm experimenting on how to do Ryus different moves more easily.
I got a really good solution:
- Set your C-Stick to attack
- Set a shoulder button to attack

Weak Tilt:
- Use C-Stick

Strong Tilt:
- Use C-Stick, then press the shoulder button set to attack (almost simultanously)

This is perfect for Ryu. I'd absolutely recommend every future Ryu main to try this set-up. It will make your life easier.

imo sounds like more effort than just tapping or holding

true, but it allows an extra degree of precision and makes it harder to do the move you don't want to do

awesome i dont even need to change my controls for this. so if hold the attack should button while flicking the right stick it will do the strong version?

So far I've found just using c-stick for light versions and A for heavy works for me.

Stupid question, but if your cstick is set to attack.. what happens when you are running and c-stick up? Do you still do an upsmash?

As the previous poster said - Dash Attack.

But, anticipating the next response you'll make and your reaction to that - It's not difficult to usmash while running using only the stick at all. It'll take some practice if your current muscle memory uses C-Stick, but it is VERY worth learning anyway because having smashes on CStick has some buggy problems when using it for aerials anyway that causes you to not have the highest control over your movement. Every pro switched to tilts on cstick in the earliest days of the game.
