Introduction

About Akuma

Having embraced the Satsui No Hado, Akuma seeks only to improve his ability by fighting the strongest opponents

Of the Shotos in Street Fighter V, Akuma (Gouki in Japan) is the most offensive oriented of them and has the most tools. With his regular and red fireballs Akuma can effectively zone people out, and with his fast + on block buttons and strong crush counters and fast walk speed he can effectively play footsies or mix people up with Demon Flip; and with an invincible reversal, a 3f jab, and his parry V-Skill he can get out of pressure and start his offense again. In other words Akuma has it all. His air fireball also makes it easy to approach against some characters when he decides he wants to pressure. His largest weakness is his Low.png HP, which at 900 is the lowest in the game meaning making mistakes become much more costly. If you want it all at the cost of your life, Akuma is the character for you.
