| ===Special Moves===
| |
| | |
| ====Hadouken====
| |
| [[QCF]]+[[P]] (all games),[[QCF]]+[[2P]] ([[SF3TS]])<br>
| |
| Ken gathers [[Chi]] into an energy ball and releases that energy towards an opponent. In later games, his Hadouken was weakened while his Shoryuken strengthened. This move is always performed with [[QCF]]+[[P]]. The higher the strength of the punch button pressed, the faster the hadouken travels across the screen. The Hadouken is about half the size of a Ken and is released at chest-level. Ken does not have a large variety of alternate versions of this move as Ryu does. The [[EX]] version in [[Street Fighter 3: Third Strike]] can be considered the fourth level of Hadouken after an [[HP]] version, although it does hit twice and will knock down an opponent.
| |
| | |
| ====Shoryuken====
| |
| [[DP]]+[[P]] (all games), [[DP]]+[[2P]] ([[SF3TS]])<br>
| |
| Ken's specialty attack. It is a rising dragon uppercut attack which moves slightly forwards (though not as forwards as Ken's would later do). Ken was eventually given a stronger version of this move, which moves forwards more than Ryu's. The higher the strength of the punch button used, the higher, farther, and harder the attack. The fierce version of this move in later games moves with fire and will knock down and enflame a struck opponent. The [[EX]] version in [[Street Fighter 3: Third Strike]] can be considered the fourth level of Shoryuken after the [[HP]] version.
| |
| | |
| ====Tatsumaki Senpukyaku====
| |
| [[QCB]]+[[K]] (all games), [[QCB]]+[[2K]] ([[SF3TS]])<br>
| |
| The [[Tatsumaki Senpukyaku]] is the third basic move characteristic of the [[Shotokan]] style of martial arts. Ken leaps straight in the air with one leg while the other spins around in a fierce hurricane kick. While spinning, Ken travels horizontally forwards across the screen. In [[Street Fighter II Turbo]] and most games since, this move can be performed in the air. The higher the strength of the kick button used, the longer, farther, and harder the attack. The [[EX]] version in [[Street Fighter 3: Third Strike]] can be considered the fourth level of this move after the [[HP]] version. In the [[Marvel vs Capcom Series]], Ken will also move upwards while moving forwards across ths screen (while Ryu's does not).
