Hadouken: Ryu Combo Videos from Sonic Hurricane

Combo Video Extraordinaire Maj from Sonic Hurricane has recently been cranking out some great Ryu combo videos that demonstrate various aspects of the SF4 combo engine.

From the description:

0:11 The first hit of Ryu’s j.MP creates a free juggle state every time, so if you can avoid connecting the second hit, you can follow up with anything. Dhalsim’s j.LP is a useful setup because it allows you to hit him at the top of his arc from the end of yours. It would’ve been nice to juggle with a Focus Attack but it’s too slow, so i went with Ryu’s c.HK instead. Juggling sweeps is always cool.

His most recent video is the first of a series of combo video challenges, again focused on Ryu, where he tries to get Ryu’s Ultra damage scaled down to 5 points each:

Great work Maj!
