I just thought, Ryus ceiling game is going to be even better than before thanks to the power launcher.

I mentioned that in the stream, yeah. Especially in the home with the walls and items. You could do crazy junk like:
6K 4H+K 3P P+K PL PP4PK(maybe?) 214P 236P+KPPShoho

Imagine launching them into the ceiling with izuna, then smashing them into furniture and getting a CB, then PL, then 214p-shoho. Something to test for sure when the game comes out.

Imo here....

1K needs to go back to doa 4 or doad status. If 1KP is safe then it doesnt have to stun. if 1k is the deep doa 4 stun then it needs to be unsafe as it is.
1P into mid punch is not an issue he has.we would be better off asking for our doa 4 1kp back.
2F+K. Yes this one would be nice. as slow as it is yes. he does not need this but it would be good.
3K is pointless and really doesn't need to be buffed. Some moves are bound to be crappy.
As far as gap closing I think he will be ok with his new tracking move. The gap closing technique is called spacing.
As far as high crushing mids doesn't 3P+K still work? If they brought back the delay the move could be pretty useful.
Ah 12 frame mid. I do not think he needs a 12 frame mid. imo we should ask for 6P to stun on normal hit and be negative 5 again.

By the time I learned Ryu he was never about string mixup. He has much simpler mixups and for the most part was designed to have good keep out and counter hit tools. He was steve fox in tekken. His B1 was 8K. if rig can get a 12 frame mid kick why can't we get a 12 frame high? It doesnt even have to be 12 frames. Just much faster thn it is now. He didn't need strings. Lacking mids was a character flaw. Low holds defeat a lot of his options. If we were low held we were read. That's just how it is. It is our job to make them stop so we can go for our good tools. I still think the most important buffs he needs are safe 6P that stuns on normal hit. Any low to open you up on normal hit. Last but not least a good ch launcher. if they give him that i think toning him down in other areas would be just fine.

Our new low throw Izuna does make balancing him kinda hard now though. So he will have unSEable stuns and a 50 50Izuna mix up.Then he has 6KK for amazing damage to mix it up with.

I cant remember the last time I used KK as a guard break to be honest lol, I dont even remember the last time I used it at all XD. I sometimes use the K to break distance but thats really all I do. He needs his 4Pk back lets see if they bring it back in the future patches

K is better than you would think, you can hit confirm it into kp for a good stun.
When I firsted started Ryu back in April my first critical burst was
KP PP(or another P) P+K
I used it like 24/7 and after I got countered so many times my brain just said : NO HADES NO !
I think I'll remember that next time, Its one his moves I less use. Sort of like his 3K2K i barely use that at all.

Ah, I remember those days. lol xD

4K is actually pretty good.

Anyway, I don't agree but I've already said my piece. Until release I'm just going to hold my tongue and see how things play out.

I'm sick of all the Ninja Gaiden costumes but.... Cyborg Busa and Dark Dragon Sword Busa I wouldn't actually mind since Oni Busa has never been in DoA and Cyborg Busa hasn't been seen since DoA2U so this would be interesting DLC.

but I would also like to have some classic traditional Ninja stuff aka DoA3 C2 and 80% of DoA2U's costumes

Ninja of the future would be awesome.

Was never really a fan of the black one with the red scarf, though.
 
ALL DOA6 DOA5 DOA4 DOA3 DOA2U DOAD
