V-Trigger Cancels

V System

V-Reversal

A forward moving strike attack; also notable for being the fastest V-Reversal in the game at 12 frames

V-Skill

Ken's V-Skill allows him to cancel many of his moves into a short run, including moves that normally are not special cancelable such as his sweep. By holding MP+MK, Ken will perform a kick at the end knocking the opponent up and allowing juggle combos as well as generating V-Meter. Run cancels are an important part of many of his combos and pressure, however during the run animation he is in a counter state.

V-Trigger 1

Heat Rush is a 3 bar V-Trigger that powers up many of Ken's special attacks with fire. His Hadokens become fire hadokens causing a knockdown on hit, and his Tatsus and Shoryukens become more damaging and have a higher combo count allowing new powerful combos. In addition, on activation Ken takes a large step forward allowing many him to continue his combos at further ranges than many characters. This is a great choice in most situations

V-Trigger 2

Shinryuken is a 2 bar V-Trigger that when activated causes Ken to do a Shinryuken straight up. By mashing HP+HK during it, Ken can do more hits/damage at the cost of using more V-Gauge. If used entirely on activation, Ken can follow up with either a CA or an EX Shoryuken for more damage by canceling the landing recovery into either. While it is projectile invincibility on startup, Shinryuken does not have any strike invincibility at any point like an EX Shoryuken and with 9f of startup it makes a poor reversal.

Strategy

Playing as Ken

Fighting Against Ken

Ken has some of the deadliest crush counter buttons in the game, and if they are able to consistently confirm off them can lead into big damage and pressure. Be careful throwing out pokes if they prove they can capitalize on this. EX Shoryuken is also a popular move due to its invincibility, damage, and moving forward; always keep it in mind especially near a round's end. Many will try to cancel Shoryuken's into V-Trigger 1 to stay safe; while this prevents them from getting crush countered it is still -7 and should be punished as such. The timing for it is trickier than it seems, but it is a worthwhile skill to practice.
