Differences From Ryu

Hadoken: All strengths are red fireballs and knockdown at close range. and fireball do more stun.
Shoryuken: and versions are multi-hitting which may result in dropped combos if not done up close. This causes them to do less damage and stun as an anti-air, but more damage on the ground, and gives him new juggle abilities(similar to Akuma).
Tatsu: and versions are multi-hitting and have an additional hitbox on the way up (similar to Akuma/Ken). This results in new juggle abilities(similar to Akuma), but all versions do less damage and stun.
Air Tatsu: and versions are multi-hitting. All versions do less damage(unless getting all hits) and stun.
Teleport: New move (similar to Akuma).
Messatsu Goshoryu: New move (similar to Akuma/Ken).
Raging Demon: New move (similar to Akuma).
Infinite CC Blowout Range: CC blowout has no range restriction, will hit full-screen and will blowout even active normals. This is unique to Evil Ryu and results in a much wider range of CC usage and new ways to combo into CC.
Defense Modifier: Has a lower defense modifier, which results in Evil Ryu taking more damage (similar to Akuma).

Move List

Normal Moves

SFA2 Framedata Glossary
Damage	Units of base damage inflicted by the move (100% life bar = 144 units of health). Most moves have a damage range; the number inside the square brackets indicates which Random Damage Table the move uses to look up any additional damage and the % chance of doing so.
Stun	Units of stun inflicted by the move.
Startup	The frame the move hits on (1st active frame). Super moves with a screen freeze will separate pre- and post-screen freeze startup frames by a '+' (Ex: 5+0).
Active	The portion of a move that can hit. How many frames a move remains active for. ()=Inactive frames in-between active frames. [xN]=Repeated sequences.
Frame Adv	The frame advantage values when the attack is blocked. (Add +1 frame to all OnBlockAdv values for the move's OnHitAdv value; Ex: +2oB/+3oH, -4oB/-3oH)
Meter	The units of meter gained on whiff/block/hit. (48, 96, and 144 units of meter are required for 1, 2, and 3 bars of meter respectively)
Block	Low attacks must be blocked crouching. High attacks must be blocked standing. Mid attacks can be blocked either way.
Properties	Chain Cancel: Can be canceled into itself or another normal attack. Special Cancel: Can be canceled into a special attack. Super Cancel: Can be canceled into a super attack.

Upper: Has frames that are invincible to mid/higher attacks (aka low profile). Counterhit: Deals and/or takes more damage when counter hit.
Frames	All framedata collected with the game speed set to normal, where the game tickrate and framerate are the same(60fps).
Speed	All framedata collected with the game speed set to normal.
Hitboxes	All hitbox images have the character standing/jumping in the exact same position, so hitbox distances can be easily compared. Blue: Hurtbox - hittable area of a character. Red: Hitbox - attacking area of an action. Yellow: Throwbox - throwing area of an action. Green: Pushbox - collidable area of a character. White: Axis - core of a character from which all other boxes reference. Pink: Projectile Hitbox - attacking area of a projectile. Light Blue: Projectile Hurtbox - hittable area of a projectile.

3 frames of startup invul; 0 of which while active.

Best used as an invincible anti-air. Will also anti-air jump-in CCs. Not a great reversal because of the lower hurtbox during the first hit; it will trade with low attacks. Amazing way to build meter from full-screen when kara-canceled with cr.hk (11 units).

7 frames of startup invul; 4 of which while active.

Best used as a reversal. Not the best version to anit-air with because it's not invincible after the first hit.

Damage	Stun	Startup	Active	Frame Adv	Meter	Block	Properties
N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	N/A	0/-/-	N/A

Receives 125% damage when counter hit.

Ryu will use his fireball animation where nothing comes out, but it has very fast recovery and can catch foes off-guard during a fireball war. Not used often due to the placement of the start button can vary depending on your controller setup, and a inputting it incorrectly will give you a regular taunt instead, which can be dangerous.

Super Moves

Startup Invulnerability Notes:

At the end of a super screen freeze, projectiles will start moving before the opponent's character is unfrozen, giving the supers more projectile invul. frames than hit invul. frames.

Command grab that travels a little less than 2/3 screen. Horrible in this game, you can be point blank and they can jump. Go for it at your own risk, definite style points if you land it.

The Basics

I like to zone with ryu, fireball away, build meter, cc for chip whatever. E. Ryu is scary cause its hard to rush him when he has meter, after a few eaten ccs your opponent wont rush you so much. This is in you favor since his fireball is so good. Some matches I burn a lvl 1 cc as soon as I get it just to push them back or do some mix up, which is effective to an extent. AC’s hurt E. Ryu, but you can also do his cc mix-up to bait it out. If you are getting rushed, no other super should be used other than hurricane kick super for wake up, or cc.

Advanced Strategy

Lvl 1 cc mix-up:

Activate, 4 lp fireballs, PPP teleport

Now this put you in a shield of Fireballs, the teleport instantly recovers in cc, and if your opponent is blocking this you can:

Throw them, you can actually throw then in between fireball hits. Overhead, depend when you hit this you can sometimes combo after due to the fireballs hitting. Nothing, let them AC and block, they just wasted some meter. What to do it you hit them with blowout:

Well if within or a little outside sweep range go for his cc:

c.rh xx lk hurricane xN, fp dp

Hadouken Knockdown
After a c.mk xx fireball knockdown, hold uf, j.lk at the last second. Its a safe jump in and if it hits go into c.lk x2 fireball. Alot of times they try to throw which leads to c.lk x2 xx fireball another knockdown into the same situation. Repeat til j.lk and c.lk is blocked.

From the blocked c.lk, go for throw, or c.mk xx fireball if you think they expected your throw attempt. If they jump at you when you have meter, cc them with s.mp/c.mp xx lk hurricanes xN, end with hp dp. If they jump from afar, actiavte, s.fp xx hk hurricane into lk hurricanes, end with dp.

C.fp is one of the best meaties and if it hits you can link a c.mk or sweep, if blocked walk forward and throw, or go for a counter hit. S.mk is a really good anti cross up, hitting instantly above his head.

Combos

These combos are exclusive only to Evil Ryu, for more combos that both Evil Ryu and regular Ryu can do, click here

(next to opponent standing) c.mk (or c.lk x2) xx lk hurricane, fp dp

(standing or crouching) c.fp xx hadouken

c.lk x2 or c. mk xx any lvl shoryureppa

c.lk x3 or c.mk xx any lvl shinku hadouken

Standing Chars Only

j. , cr. xx Hadouken OR Any Level Shinkuu Hadou OR Any Level Shoryureppa (End with Reppa for the most damaging combo)

Corner Only

c.fp xx hk hurricane (hurts sagat bad)

j. mp xx Any Level Reppa (Timing is slightly later against smaller characters like Chun)

Custom Combos

UPDATED: Better Customs at lvl 3

c.rh xx lk hurricane x3, fp dp x2 c.rh xx lk hurricane x2, lp dp, lp dp, hp dp c.rh xx lk hurricane x3, hp fireball x4, hp dp c.rh xx hp dp, hp dp, lp dp, hp dp. Neat lvl 1:

s.mp xN xx lp dp, lk hurricane, lp dp Note in CC mode E. Ryu’s specials are like regular Ryu’s.

Now thats not it. Due to infinite blowout E. Ryu can COMBO into CC. How? Here’s How:

c.mp meaty c.fp meaty c.fp c.lp any jump in

Activating after any of these let to continue to combo in CC, starting with a c.rh.

BUT WAIT THERE’S MORE!

Tired of people jumping on you, well then just anti-air cc. Shoto’s have probably the best AA ccs. If no cc is available, used c.fp or s.mp (cancel into hurricane to move close or hadouken to push back). S.mk works as a anti-cross up.

Activate, s.mp xx lk hurricane xN, fp dp

Now if they jump from afar…

Activate, s.fp xx rh hurricane, fp dp

Congrats! You just made you opponent think twice about jumping on you which leads to more hadouken and cc mix-up fun! This is just a quick overview if you have any in depth question feel free to ask.

Also vs fireballers, if you hit a air hurricane kick…

immeadiately jump activate, j.mp xx hurricane, land, continue hurricane kick juggle, end with fp dp.

Tournament Legality

Evil Ryu is only in the US versions of the game, while his CC activation can cause hit stun from anywhere on screen, he doesn't completely overpower the regular cast. The character is legal unless noted by the tournament organizer.
