    One thing i found out AFTER the video is that Akuma's fireball does 700 damage while average fireballs like Ryu's does 600.
    His OD fireball does 1000 damage while other fireballs typically does 800.

      at the distance you show in the video , the opp can DI as an answer ( Heavy fireball recovery at that distance will not recover in time, it's not like you can abuse H fireball at this distance) , and you have others answer other than that to deal with . It would be interresting you show the answer too in the video

    The fireball speed is a major problem. I main Guile and I've actually seen Akuma throw three fireballs into my H. Sonic Blade > boom before it reached him (granted the first did hit the blade before the boom). I do NOT have this problem with Ryu and a total of 1 to 3 frames more recovery across three fireballs will not solve it.
    I was sure Guile wins every traditional fireball war in the game before Akuma (Ryu can be tricky with Denjin, Dee Jay is REALLY tricky but can be done with L sonic blade into boom slowly pushing the clashes towards Dee Jay until you have the frames to use H. sonic blade and throw three hits back at Dee Jay's two).
    I'm not sure Guile beats Akuma as the charged versions at least match H. Blade into boom.

    I feel like i can't do anything against akuma with a good fireball game.
    Even when i predict a fireball and i jump it's often not a punish and he still has time to block.
    I'm fine with akuma being the character that twerks on you because he has loads of mixups and everything.
    But having the best zoning/fireball game on top of that is just absurd.
    That's even without mentioning air fireball because anti airing it without some kind of DP/flash kick. While having to worry about a normal jump in, dive kick, or demon flip is just too much.
    And his absolutely insane walk speed with his amazing buttons that make his neutral game insanely strong.
    You can't just give everything to a character with the excuse that he has slightly less life than the other characters.

    I'm glad for this video. I mean normally you do get to (with good timing) jump to beat fireballs, or parry, but I find myself unable to do anything in the face of the footsie game, even as Ken. Being mental stacked by DR, what I've learned is the best fireball in the game, Messatsu, even his jumps got mix up with air fireball, divekick, and "toes" (6MK) once more, lower HP does not balance an unhittable character. (Plat 1 atm, and it's the patient Akumas that don't do dumb things because they have everything to make an opening that really devoid of hope)

      @@ViewtifulOtaku7 the buffs she got really help her. If they're fishing a lot with CR mk then your st HK will do serious damage since one punish counter combo will lead to 40% of his life gone plus corner positioning. Gladius stops air fireball very consistently and stance stops demon flip options. And if you are stuck in the corner then wake up drive reversal works wonders. If you see them throwing HK a lot in neutral, walk up and crouch block a lot. Akuma HK whiffs on crouching opponents and you get fat Marisa damage if that happens. Hardest things for her to deal with IMO are his stand HP and heavy fireball. Hope this helps

    OH YES. I can 100% confirmed on the hurt box hand extension for it happened to me last night! Using Ryu, I did a very close Level 3 move activation to counter Akuma's hadoken but Ryu's fist went straight THROUGH Akuma's hands. I was so PISSED when that happened for it made INCONSISTENT FIGHTER 6 even more of a reality for it makes no design sense whatsoever as to why Capcom purposely made such a decision like that. Frankly, they really don't care about balancing the game at all.
