Notable SF6 Ryu players

Name	Region	Stream/Socials	Notes
Kusanagi	France	Twitch	The French prodigy, winner of Capcom Pro Tour 2024 qualifying event Ultimate Fighting Arena 2024 in a tense Grand Finals set vs Xiaohai. The hallmark of Kusanagi's play is his immaculate spacing, a fitting quality for a former tournament-level Luke player; notice how careful his movements are when he finds his desired position.
Yas	Japan	Twitch	A widely-admired Ryu main who has regularly been the #1 online ranked Ryu player. An all-rounder in style, Yas' play is a good point of study for those who wish to understand Ryu's potential on both offense and defense.
Semy28	Germany	Twitch	One of Germany's star SF6 players, Semy28 can be counted on for his explosive, close-range style and his consistent Top 3 performances in the CPT 2024 World Warrior German region online series.
Paladin	USA	Twitch Youtube	Representing Ryu on the US East Coast, a community featuring some of the toughest competition in the world, Paladin regularly places high in tournament and uploads in-depth analysis of their performances to Youtube.
EndingWalker	UK	Twitch	The first player to qualify for a Capcom Cup in the SF6 era while playing Ryu, EndingWalker has since shifted focus to Ed (the character he was most associated with in SFV) post-Capcom Cup X. At the time, EndingWalker's 'call-out'-heavy approach made a deep impression and was the most prominent showing of a then-unpopular character in the tournament scene.
Sekiganryu	Japan	Twitch	A standout player on Japanese netplay since SFIV, Sekiganryu has earned an international audience for his stolidly patient mid-range play over the years. He has maintained a high standard of performance going into SF6 and is maybe the most "classicist" in style among contemporary Ryu experts.
Darlin	China	--	Regularly seen playing online against the cream of China, Korea and Japan, Darlin's unconventional strings and pressure-cooker offense has the appearance of improvisation, but this belies a deep technical understanding of the character. A must-watch for those who want to see Ryu played successfully at his most sideways.
