In Street Fighter 6, even Ken vs. Ken matchups are tough due to the opponent’s rapid-fire attacks, and I’m desperately paying the D gauge to throw out a dragon punch just to manage. But seriously, what do characters without a dragon punch do?

Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

If you see something glowing blue or trying hard, I’ll throw it.

1: Japan Otaku Reviews

Thunder is truly amazing.

The countermeasures of Ken against the opponent’s strategies are superior and have a higher expected value, a technique of the gods.

Even if I get hit by a reversal Shoryuken, the gauge is delicious. If you stay quiet, I’ll grind you down with a standing strong and then hit you with a tasty godlike kick.

2: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’ll do my best with a positive impact.

4: Japan Otaku Reviews

Street Fighter 6 is a good example of having strong characters with powerful special moves.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews

So, on top of that, they have strong normal moves, hadoukens, dragon punches, rush moves, switches, carry moves, and judo as well.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews

That option for legs is unfairly varied.

It’s too unfair to be able to stop without letting it out.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews

Even though it’s mainly about striking and strong, being able to shoot projectiles in between is really impressive.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews

Can we at least make the OD bullet not a big deal…?

9: Japan Otaku Reviews

To be honest, even if she gets nerfed poorly, I feel like she won’t move from a position like Cammy’s right now.

But I feel like even if we do Kennerf, it will just lead to more Akumas and the environment will become even worse…

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

Gouki is able to properly perceive the pre-motion of the wave.

Just weaken the middle kick and middle punch in 2, and that’s fine.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews

It feels like Akuma has become relatively stronger while everyone else has fallen behind.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews

I really think that the fact that Akuma’s Hadou doesn’t become visible lacks credibility, so I believe it directly hits the official reasoning for adjustments in Street Fighter 6.

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Ken and Akuma seem like rivals.

If one of them goes, we just have to move.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews

The martial arts uniform is versatile.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

The middle foot rush doesn’t rot… it feels off due to the reach difference, though.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>15

I think they should apply about a 50% correction to that.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like I was screwed before the derivative with Zangi.

18: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

No matter how much data I see showing that this guy has a short reach, my feelings just won’t accept it.

19: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

>>18

If you stop, it’s short, but this game frequently moves back and forth.

The actual reach is influenced by walking speed.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews

Terry is being called weak and weak.

During the match, it often turns into “Naa~ga!” with the middle kick!

22: Japan Otaku Reviews

If it doesn’t derive, it’s said that guarding against the negative confirm is advantageous, but that’s tough.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m using Guile, but I quickly use OD Somersault Kick when I have the chance.

If you use Sonic to create distance, the D gauge will come back again.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, Ken’s walking speed is the same as Ryu’s, both tied for 10th place.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>24

The rush is…

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since it’s a discussion about the feeling of the length of the midfoot, I might not be talking about the rush.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews

As long as it’s fun, it’s fine, but an online fighting game that goes as far as ranked matches…

Isn’t it likely that dissatisfaction grows since it’s almost impossible to outsmart someone of the same rank?

28: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>27

It’s interesting that you can now catch up to something you couldn’t before.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>28

In Street Fighter 6, since the walking speed has a slow initial movement, it makes me wonder if there is a way to work around this with some cleverness.

I used to love fighting games, but I’m not playing them now, so I was wondering how people feel about them, and I think I understand it a bit now.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>27

So it’s not just that I only play ranked matches; I study more than those around me, take them down, and move up.

Those who don’t do that can only complain for their entire lives.

29: Japan Otaku Reviews

If they’re of the same rank, a slight character difference can easily be overcome.

It’s very tough to face a higher-ranked opponent.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want to set both a reversal D-river and guard simultaneously in training mode. Is there a way to do that?

61: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>30

In the dummy settings for drive reversal, if you press △ or medium punch, you can set the percentages for “do not do, guard cancel reversal, reversal” individually.

If you set “Guard activation” to 0 and made all the guard settings guard or something, wouldn’t that work?

31: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Let Ryuu take care of the D-gauge shaving.

You have the skill and ability to go and touch.

158: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>31

Ryu has more power to shave off.

It’s difficult to approach and create a situation, so as a result, it’s true that Ken tends to get worn down more.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well then!

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>32

Hmph!

34: Japan Otaku Reviews

The system is strong, so there can be upward shifts too.

This is addictive.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m practicing to catch my rival today by using AKI’s reversal OD movement technique with a hidden Kopa Koa throw.

Who are you?

38: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think you can use 3 gauges for the invincible state of the foot rush with 4 gauge OD.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>38

It’s just a shitty adjustment that only benefits those who have nothing.

Don’t go for a foot rush, just do a cancel rush instead.

40: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I think increasing the consumption of D-gauge just slows down the game progression and makes it boring.

41: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

There are hardly any fighting games where you can’t outsmart an opponent of the same rank.

Unless there is a significant character disparity,

42: Japan Otaku Reviews

When there are projectiles on the screen, it might be good if the recovery for the side that shot them is slower.

43: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

If something like Thunder were to be implemented in the current character, it would be the first thing to be fixed because of its performance, right?

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

The bullets could be stronger; after all, they prepared three countermeasures with the Jump Impact Jasper Rush common system.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews

I don’t know what to do when I’m stuck and getting hit hard by Yuki’s mid-P.

Do I have to work hard to be able to make it to the second time?

46: Japan Otaku Reviews

Don’t walk backward.

47: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you’re in the center, after blocking a standing medium punch, step back because you’re outside the range of throws.

In that case, Juri can only catch backdashes with medium kick after standing medium punch, but then it can be interrupted with moves that are 5 frames or faster.

During Rush stand heavy punch, you can follow up with a core crouching punch to catch backdashes, so the defending side can’t backdash or use small attacks. You either have to use an invincible move, successfully execute a perfect parry, or escape throws, and you just have to try to outsmart your opponent.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews

I hope everyone in the dojo doesn’t become weak, and I’m wishing for that on Amazon.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews

I really think it’s not good that just spamming special moves has become a powerful option.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

Well, that’s also the interesting part about Ken, so it’s fine to reduce it.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

The current stacking of bullets for offensive moves is clearly not good.

I want you to play with it a little.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

Feel free to make the bullets stronger, but please implement bullets for all characters.

Lack of balls is tough.

53: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The string should be a strike!

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>53

Lily is troubled.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews

I won’t complain to Ken.

Instead, I hope that Ken users won’t complain about other characters.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews

The medium foot rush guarantees a D-reversal, so it’s good to just throw it.

As long as you don’t eat it, it’s not that strong.

One way to fight is to bait the opponent’s medium foot rush and gain a gauge advantage with D-reversal.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>55

The guaranteed D reversal after a medium foot rush won’t be enough time after the screen goes dark, so it seems like you don’t know this and haven’t tried it yourself to realize it.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

At the mid-foot stage, the hit rate increases, and even if it gets guarded, it becomes strong because it can lead to throws and shimmy from rush combos.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

Personally, what I can’t agree with the most about Ken is that he has projectiles with this level of performance.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

In this game, the rush speed is more important than the normal walking speed…

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

Terry seems to be able to go to Ken, but I don’t know the reason.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

Isn’t it unfair that you can run and chase after the one you hit?

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think everyone should be able to rush at Vega class without ammunition.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>65

What’s going to happen to Manon?

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>65

Players who use throwing characters are really stupid.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews

The rush is getting faster, which is a relief.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

Here? I can’t find that setting no matter which button I press, could it be a different page?

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>67

There is a type of drive reversal called “random.”

Each ratio can be set after selecting it.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>75

I did it! Now I can practice efficiently, thank you!!

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder if Ryu can use Ken’s OD projectile to chase.

Ryu, get more motivated and run!

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

Dealing with the Middle Lightning is easiest for Manon, right?

It is more important to be 5 frames longer than the presence of Shoryu.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>69

I’m using Manon, and it’s great if I can always land the weak kick on 5F, but it often doesn’t hit, so it’s pretty tough.

If it hits as precisely as a double knee press, that’s good.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

Just making it guard normally is a mind game that favors Ken.

Isn’t it too much like Shinjiro to think that you’re putting in a special move because you think it is?

74: Japan Otaku Reviews

Most collaborations can be managed with D-Riva, but…

That doesn’t come out so quickly.

77: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

In other words, characters with 5F long moves and Shoryuken are the easiest to handle…

Yes, it’s Ken.

80: Japan Otaku Reviews

The technique does not match the risk-return.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are quite a few Kens who just die from getting hit by SA1 while I’m only doing Juli around MR1600.

I guess you can basically win just with Thunder…

82: Japan Otaku Reviews

Aren’t you playing the same kind of mind games with OD Hancho without the gauge?

83: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>82

It’s not as wide-ranging in options for Naka, Shita, Omote, Ura, and Nage at that level.

85: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>83

The thunder is weak.

Mai is definitely broken.

84: Japan Otaku Reviews

Thunder is truly low risk and high return, isn’t it?

Considering Ken’s normal moves and rush capabilities, it’s a technique that should be put to use, but that kind of return is just not acceptable…

86: Japan Otaku Reviews

In the end, Ryu has achieved better results in the tournament.

95: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>86

It’s fine if everyone is Blaz, right?

“How many CC appearances and how many MR top ranks do you have?”

110: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>95

The man who, despite being the second highest since the first year, managed to avoid significant weakening.

87: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

That Ryu is like someone who has won in human performance.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews

If Ken is nerfed with this, I think I would go beyond anger and start laughing.

89: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was invited by a friend to watch a tournament, and it seems Ken is popular; there were many players using him, but they all got beaten up.

What kind of character is that JP anyway? It’s not funny, is it?

90: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

It’s not that there are many because they’re popular, but rather there are many because they’re strong.

It’s a tournament with a prize of 200 million yen.

91: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

While Flowers and Birds are strong, I think Thunder is stronger when it comes to countermeasures against countermeasures.

92: Japan Otaku Reviews

Aren’t there a lot of characters that seem a bit outside the top competitive environment at tournaments?

In the end, it might be about how it feels in your hand or compatibility.

98: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>92

It feels like something I’m good at or something I can bet my soul on.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you prepare thoroughly, you can win, but if you can’t, it’s tough.

I think I’ve heard that somewhere.

94: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Well, it’s true that there are many because they are strong, but they are also generally popular, Ken…

96: Japan Otaku Reviews

Because there are no gaps in performance, I would like them to add some weaknesses that seem like actual weaknesses.

97: Japan Otaku Reviews

There shouldn’t be a nerf for Ryu…

Isn’t there?

100: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>97

Just because something is weak doesn’t mean it won’t get nerfed.

Characters that were weak have also been affected by adjustments in a way that they are weakened somewhere due to the balance with the reinforced parts.

99: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s frustrating that even when you were about to hit the opponent in the air at the edge, the weak follow-up still leads to a continuous stack.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews

Specifications have weakened bullets and rising dragons, so collateral damage is definitely possible.

102: Japan Otaku Reviews

I hope Ken gets buffed soon because his medium kick is short, he doesn’t have any advantageous normals, and he doesn’t have a rush middle attack, so it’s tough.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

103: Japan Otaku Reviews

Legend population count as of 03/12/2025:
1st – Mai (58)
2nd – JP (38)
3rd – Ken (32)
4th – Akuma, Zangief (28)
6th – Vega (27)
7th – Cammy (26)
8th – Luke, Blanka (22)
10th – Kimberly (21)
11th – Juri (20)
12th – DJ (19)
13th – Rashid (17)
14th – Ed (16)
15th – A.K.I. (15)
16th – Terry, Chun-Li, Jamie, Manon, Honda (14)
21st – Ryu (13)
22nd – Dhalsim (12)
23rd – Guile (11)
24th – Mariza (9)
25th – Lily (6)
*Note: The total does not add up to 500 due to fluctuations in the numbers.

104: Japan Otaku Reviews

Manon wants Ken’s people to make adjustments.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think he’s strong, but compared to M. Bison, his character power drops by about two tiers, so if they’re going to nerf Ken, how much do they have to reduce those three characters…? It feels that way.

106: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems like Ryu-san normally has the risk of getting involved during judo or while adjusting mid-level rushes.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews

It would be best if everyone became like Ken.

108: Japan Otaku Reviews

Alright, let’s do it like this: Ken’s stamina is 9000.

113: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>108

If all the techniques’ performance becomes on par with Akuma, then that’s fine, right?

118: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>113

Isn’t that already Gouki?

121: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>113

I will bestow upon you the middle foot, the big punch, and the big kick.

109: Japan Otaku Reviews

In tournaments, the only chance to see the Dragon Tail kick is as a weak move for combos, which could be interpreted like Ed’s SA2.

111: Japan Otaku Reviews

The only part where Blaz has an advantage over Ryu in terms of performance is the Wave Palm Strike.

112: Japan Otaku Reviews

Blanca is too empty for adjustments.

115: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems Ed has been saved.

116: Japan Otaku Reviews

As expected, Zangief is strong and there are a lot of them, it’s frustrating.

117: Japan Otaku Reviews

You don’t have to lower Ken, okay?

Instead, level up other characters to the same level as Ken.

119: Japan Otaku Reviews

If big P and Shoryu are treated as having the same performance as Akuma, that would be troublesome.

120: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Even professional Ken players who were heavily invested in politics during year1 have already given up and accepted that Ken is one of the strongest characters.

122: Japan Otaku Reviews

I sometimes think that rush speed is determined by the character’s vibe, even though that’s probably not the case.

134: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>122

Global musician > Ninja

The atmosphere of speed within CAPCOM is

123: Japan Otaku Reviews

Let’s set the physical strength to 6900 and the speed to X.

124: Japan Otaku Reviews

Lily probably doesn’t have character power after all.

Even when I try it myself, with the wind dash option, the returns are too low, and I have to win the read so many times to make it work.

125: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Lily is so boring that she could die before the strong and weak.

126: Japan Otaku Reviews

JP is currently a bit strong.

128: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>126

Yeah

It’s the two strong ones, JP and Ryu.

127: Japan Otaku Reviews

The pros are now accustomed to standing in the middle after watching, so I wonder if they will adjust to that.

130: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>127

This is a level of discussion that has nothing to do with 99.9% of the tropical population.

138: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>130

Don’t worry, this is Capcom, who has been adjusting while only watching the professional scene until now.

129: Japan Otaku Reviews

Let’s practice!

131: Japan Otaku Reviews

I think it’s hard to understand why only Ken’s Shoryuken has invincibility on startup.

136: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>131

It’s really helpful to be able to go after seeing the reach, regardless of the reach itself.

132: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

It was a tournament that showcased the importance of the player’s skill rather than the character itself.

133: Japan Otaku Reviews

The CC participants were probably taking quite a hit in the mid-range rush as well.

I wasn’t really on good terms with Blaz.

135: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you’re at the middle of a rush, it’s fairly easy to hold it up, so it’s not a very high-level discussion.

Standing every time in the middle of the stage is a superhuman.

142: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>135

It feels good to kill these delusional guys in the middle of a stretch.

I’m going to eat like an idiot.

146: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>142

That’s right.

The fastest 20F can be seen, so delaying it has become the meta, right?

There was a scene in the last CC where that happened.

137: Japan Otaku Reviews

I can do it!

139: Japan Otaku Reviews

If you want to make the middle rush safe on guard and slightly advantageous, make it +4 on hit for all characters.

140: Japan Otaku Reviews

There is no image of Vega dashing with full power either.

145: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>140

I guess I have to drive the truck after all, Vega.

141: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s hard to understand why Zangief is running in a rush like that.

143: Japan Otaku Reviews

143: Japan Otaku Reviews

Please say it casually.

144: Japan Otaku Reviews

Vega has the image of hovering while standing upright with arms crossed.

147: Japan Otaku Reviews

At my rank, there’s no lower rush, so I can just stand.

I want to go up and see the screen sometime…

148: Japan Otaku Reviews

If we’re talking about the fastest timing, then that’s fine.

The unexpected decay is indeed unreasonable.

149: Japan Otaku Reviews

Does that mean it’s okay for Vega to run at full speed because he has amnesia?

150: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

There are a lot of customers.

151: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>150

It’s not something to be irritable about, unless it’s something abusive or foul-mouthed.

152: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

>>150

What’s wrong all of a sudden…?

169: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>152

153: Japan Otaku Reviews

Before whether it’s visible or not, it can be extremely painful to start a counter with a delayed graph.

154: Japan Otaku Reviews

I should be able to see it, so I need to parry, but even if I can see it, I still end up standing.

155: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want to socially erase Ken~

157: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>155

JP’s response

156: Japan Otaku Reviews

When I see the user saying they’re trying hard while using it, I can’t help but hold my head in despair.

159: Japan Otaku Reviews

A wonderful person in CC was crushed and returned, losing to the technique of the gods.

Terry is a godly character who guarantees Buster Wolf if he guards the first hit of a weak to mid-level lightning attack.

161: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>159

That was really exciting, wasn’t it?

163: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>159

Even after being confirmed for a second time, I was still doing it out of habit; it’s already an addiction.

167: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>163

That match was so incredible that I can genuinely say the reason for the defeat was lightning.

160: Japan Otaku Reviews

If I had three drive gauges, it would be too troublesome to think of the main middle kick rush and a separate slot for the Pachinko OD wave projectile rush.

162: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Please stop being difficult and bringing up performance issues when you’re just a pig watching through a stream.

164: Japan Otaku Reviews

Ryu also advances nicely with K2 press, creating some good follow-ups.

165: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s so obvious!

166: Japan Otaku Reviews

There’s no one in ranked matches except for Terry.

It seems that there was a lack of measures, or rather, it must have been difficult to switch mindsets.

168: Japan Otaku Reviews

I’m relieved that Mai isn’t causing that much trouble, damn glasses.

170: Japan Otaku Reviews

I was probably doing something simple because I had an upset stomach after eating Nakamoto.
