The Basics

Advanced Strategy

Unblockables

Throwing the opponent "Off Axis" is far easier in EXA than EX2+.

Any time Ryu cancels a confirm or Anti Air to Air Shin Tatsumaki (STK), he's in position to hit his opponent with unblockable Oki. Midscreen, meaty j. MK will either OS an ambiguous crossup or hit the opponent off axis on their wakeup. This often leads to a full combo, an unscaled backturned super, or can be routed to loop unblockables.

Midscreen Setup:

Anti Air 623P xx 214214K, Sideswitch, (Hold Forward/Macrowalk), j. MK Unblockable

Punish / Corner Setup:

(j. 5HP), 5LK xx 623HP xx 214214K, Sideswitch, (Hold Forward/Macrowalk), j. MK Unblockable
