Revision as of 15:38, 2 March 2016


Ken
Shoryuken! A millionaire (by birthright, not effort) playboy with bleached hair (but not eyebrows - representing his 3/4ths Japanese heritage), Ken gets the Money, the Glory, and the Girl. He trained with his rival and friend, Ryu, in a Japanese Dojo under the tutelage of Gouken, a very powerful martial artist who famously went on to simply wake up from being dead. Ken favours a flashy, gung-ho fighting style over the more stoic and traditional Ryu.
In a nutshell
While certainly an overall poorer character than Ryu in SF2HF, Ken is not far behind. In some matchups his slower fireballs and wider arcing Dragon Punch can actually be helpful, and his very doable 'Touch of Death' combos mean one solid hit can always spell an opponent's doom.

- Vs. Balrog (boxer):
- Vs. Blanka:
- Vs. Chun-Li:
- Vs. Dhalsim:
- Vs. E. Honda:
Same as Ryu's strategy versus E. Honda: from about halfscreen away, throw slow fireballs, and sweep with cr.HK to hit with the very tip of the toe as Honda lands. You should be a little more careful chucking fireballs than with Ryu however, since Ken's fireball has more recovery time than Ryu's.
