I think Ultra has the best character select theme out of all the SF4 games. It has the most hype and energy and just feels pure. No fluff or bullshit or trying to be something it's not. It reminds me of a time when games knew they were games and were unapologetic about it.
i wish they bring back those cool intros in the alpha series like when its akuma vs evil ryu both doing the black out move.. or ken and ryu goofing around before they fight..
A game full of shotos? I don't really agree with that being fun. Half the fun of fighting games is seeing all the cool, unique fighting styles and moves that each characters have. Characters like Dudley, Alex, Juri, Guy, and Yang are awesome. I'd get bored so fast if everyone started using just shoto characters. Diversity is important in my opinion.
I totally agree, but what I love about Shoto fights is that it just feels like both characters are really fairly balanced, have a pretty even matchup and have a lot of the same tools available to them. All the shotos are still really unique but there's just something about shoto matches that makes them feel pretty action packed and exciting. If all usf4 had was shotos I wouldn't play, but I do like a good shoto vs shoto, just a good bunch of fun imo :)
official unofficial SF story guy here. They're not Shotokan but Ansastuken however when its E.Ryu vs Akuma or Gouki then its Satsui no Hado Ansatsuken. We must fear and respect the power of Satsui No Hado!!!
i started playing e ryu recently too, and i must say a whole lotta fucking fun. The bonus is the damage output from one short or jab..not to mention how disgusting his axe kick pressure can be if played right
Same here. I used to be a Ken user too from SFII to Alpha. Then my friend held a tournament at his house with his friends an EVERYONE but his brother used Ken (he used Ryu) I had an epiphany, There had to be another way...now I main Chun Li and Vega (claw) with Makoto on the side.
I know what you mean man. My school's gaming club had a SF4 tournament and all the ken/ryu/sakura/akuma matches really were not that interesting to watch, which is why I picked Zangief. I made it to the semi-finals even though I had very little experience with the game. Someone using ryu won the tournament though.
Match #1 - Satsui No Hadou drives them to kill each other. 4:37 - He's not Mr T, so he doesn't pity them. Match #2 - A 1990's tough guy. Match #3 - Master against student. Match #4 - Don't help him!
Hello Max ... Not a big shoto fan (gameplay wise), but you should consider using the Axe kick some more to keep the pressure up, and frame trapping if possible (perhaps as an option select or to get in, not just in combos)
That cause with Gen the super in to ultra set up well before ultra was his most damaging setup an now i ultra since the damage for the setupwas nerfed everyine just goes ucw with gen for the options and either burn meter for fadc combos or save for super to wiff punish its kinda a necessary for gen since ge doesnt deal that much damage
Hey Maximilian, I know you like to play as E.ryu but I prefer oni and I know he has a large hitbox and his fireballs really bad but his damage he does in his combos is huge and if you learn oni's strengths and weaknesses and the next thing you know you will be great with him and for a bonus he has a red and yellow color and i hope this comment helped you and if it did have great day :D.
Hey Max, you have to realize you have full Ultra to punish sometimes. I know you like to go for the tough links and combos, but seriously, punishing with a full Ultra is just as viable. 4:247:22
Unrelated thought to the video Max but with capcom potentially selling off the rights to its properties any thoughts on the fighting game insanity if Arc System Works got a hold of the brand. Just imagine GG v BB v SF.
I think that his name was shin or shun from the movie alpha the animation anyway I feel that Ryun little brother should be in here in his young age then like will play more then
I won't debate or hate on your opinions, but I will disagree. Street Fighter for me will always be something like Rog vs Yun, or Vega vs Yuri Juri. And with all due respect and no trolling, El Fuerte vs Rufus. Anyone else got a crazy match they love to watch/play?
you know its been a while since you did a boss rage video. I was thinking maybe you can fight Giga bowser in super smash bros. melee adventure mode. on Very Hard. you probably know this already but just in case, you have to reach giga bowser by going through the adventure mode without using a continue. its ok to lose a few lives on the way but once you see that continue screen you have to start over. the game also has to be on normal or higher difficulty for him to appear after regular bowser
Whats th3 difference between ken and ryu? Like I know their specials and stuff are different but is there a more techical thing I'm missing? I'm not really all into fighting games I just enjoy watching the vids. I just ask cause whenever I see a street fighter vid I always see people pick ken over ryu or akuma when they seem to have similar movements and attacks for the most part
Ryu is all about fundamentals and zoning out your oppenent. You pretty much just control the match until you win, but ken has alot more style. He's more of a rush down and combo the living fuck out of you kind of character.
id really like to see you work with yun in ssf4. your crazy good with him in third strike even though hes like completely different in certain ways in ssf4 i think it would be cool :D
Your over head tatsu, puts you in a bad position, what I mean is it wiffs over the opponents head and puts you in the corner, but overall I love your gameplays max👍🏼
I remember the first time I went online not only was he my first Guile opponent he was the first person to destroy me in like 10sec. I remember the beating like it was yesterday *hides in corner*
These Gouken players always keep dashing in and out all over the place, this character is surprisingly nimble. Also Max you don't fadc cr.mk hadoken and then look if it hits and they are stand our rouching, you react if the cr.mk is hitting. If cr.mk hit you fadc, i it isn't, you don't, otherwise you are wasting precious meter. Still not bad for a 1 day e.ryu ;p
I tried to play this game and i suck , i cant seem to understand how i should time the hits to actually get a successful combo ..cant even get a simple combo lol :((((
Dude, you gotta simplify your friggin titles to your videos. I didn't even know this was a continuation of another video until I clicked on this. Apparently this is a Part 2 to some other video. It's kinda inconvenient is all, not trying to cry about or anything.
I think Ultra has the best character select theme out of all the SF4 games. It has the most hype and energy and just feels pure. No fluff or bullshit or trying to be something it's not. It reminds me of a time when games knew they were games and were unapologetic about it.
The week of Evil Ryu made me buy the SF cross over DLC for Asura's Wrath. Makes me wish Asura was in the game. :(
i wish they bring back those cool intros in the alpha series like when its akuma vs evil ryu both doing the black out move.. or ken and ryu goofing around before they fight..
12:23 you got soooooooooo lucky Max lol
Shoulda fadc-ed back, or, you know, use the ex dash punch for an easy time juggling into that ultra
A game full of shotos? I don't really agree with that being fun. Half the fun of fighting games is seeing all the cool, unique fighting styles and moves that each characters have. Characters like Dudley, Alex, Juri, Guy, and Yang are awesome. I'd get bored so fast if everyone started using just shoto characters. Diversity is important in my opinion.
I agree, a game full of the same type of characters would get stale. And getting rid of Chun Li?! That's just crazy talk Max.
TheSoulGem THE THIGHS STAY
Agreed! The game wouldn't be the same without Lady Chun in it.
NOSLO It's not a (legit) Street Fighter without Chun Li. It took Capcom 3 SFIII's to get it right.
I totally agree, but what I love about Shoto fights is that it just feels like both characters are really fairly balanced, have a pretty even matchup and have a lot of the same tools available to them. All the shotos are still really unique but there's just something about shoto matches that makes them feel pretty action packed and exciting. If all usf4 had was shotos I wouldn't play, but I do like a good shoto vs shoto, just a good bunch of fun imo :)
12:18 Damn that Gouken FADC combo was freaken sick!
official unofficial SF story guy here. They're not Shotokan but Ansastuken however when its E.Ryu vs Akuma or Gouki then its Satsui no Hado Ansatsuken. We must fear and respect the power of Satsui No Hado!!!
i like the fact that you show the close matches where you lose as well
Maximilian Dood is life !
Max, I know you won't read this but you are supposed to confirm the low forward fireball fadc, not guess with it. You can react in time, even online
"Let's have a game completely full of shotas" YES I AGREE
Absolutely stunned how that Gouken match ended.
Street Fighter V cast: Ryu, Ken, and introducing Sho!
Did Evil Ryu get a walk speed increase? He seem like he moves faster. Or is it the lack of that I don't see many E. Ryus?
Yes, there was an update and it helped E.Ryu, Akuma and others I forgot
Alex Ortiz Ken and Guy was included if I remember for the others I forgot.
I knew Ken, Cody, and Guy received increased walk speed. Wasn't to sure til I watch some of Max's videos on E. Ryu.
Yang also got a slight increase in walk speed.
Yes, he got walk speed increase. E Ryu got nothing but buffs I think
Max you got to try the alt costume with long hair it looks sick
Max.....you rock dude! haha love you stuff! I also love freaking shotos, forget the rest man!!!
i started playing e ryu recently too, and i must say a whole lotta fucking fun. The bonus is the damage output from one short or jab..not to mention how disgusting his axe kick pressure can be if played right
Great video Max, but I was wondering why there isn't HD for this one? =(
Dat Evil Ryu face at 14:49 needs to be a twitch icon
Shoto vs shoto is never fun for me, not even when I used to use Ken. In fact it's why I stopped playing as Ken.
Same here. I used to be a Ken user too from SFII to Alpha. Then my friend held a tournament at his house with his friends an EVERYONE but his brother used Ken (he used Ryu) I had an epiphany, There had to be another way...now I main Chun Li and Vega (claw) with Makoto on the side.

Match #1 - Satsui No Hadou drives them to kill each other.
4:37 - He's not Mr T, so he doesn't pity them.
Match #2 - A 1990's tough guy.
Match #3 - Master against student.
Match #4 - Don't help him!
I haven't been able to really get into this game till recently. Now that I have, I really enjoy playing this game.
MAN! was I the only one that wanted Gouken's Ultra setup to work
Max you should definitely make a Tier list when you improve with all the characters
Pretty sick thumbnail Max!
LMFAO that Gouken must've been PISSED
Yes!!! more satsui no hado power ,do more Evil Ryu battles ,its very fun and interssting,still learning :v
Hello Max ... Not a big shoto fan (gameplay wise), but you should consider using the Axe kick some more to keep the pressure up, and frame trapping if possible (perhaps as an option select or to get in, not just in combos)
love your videos man!
4:24 I also scream "noooo" xD
They should just add a Parry System through like a DLC Mode or something.
Awesome video max, you're getting better with evil ryu. Please switch to the English VO, he sounds much more evil.
if I never hope to face max in street fighter I'm going to have to practice with my Ryu when I get Xbox 360 next month
His victory pose reminds me of naruto changing into nine tail fox
Yay more E. RYU!!!
Every time I see an opponent's selection cursor move over to training stage I die a little bit inside.
Decapre!
...would be kinda cool.
i like more when you edit the video like the BOSS RAGE
I really want to see some Oni gameplay! Your E. Ryu is dirty though!
I agree that true SF is with the Shotos
So does Max just not like the lighting fireball or does he not know about it?
Wonder if Max plays tekken, the cast has some hype worthy people
I just thought what if both evil ryu and akuma done the raging demon at the same time
i was here like a idiot screaming DOO THE FUCKING UULLTRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Pesquisa todas as regiões, adoraria te enfrentar *-*
Why don't you ever Ultra?
He either forgets it or kills them before getting to it in a setup
I know right? When you watch the tournaments, you see Ultras practically every game. Then there's Xian who throws in Ultras and supers in each game.
That cause with Gen the super in to ultra set up well before ultra was his most damaging setup an now i ultra since the damage for the setupwas nerfed everyine just goes ucw with gen for the options and either burn meter for fadc combos or save for super to wiff punish its kinda a necessary for gen since ge doesnt deal that much damage
It's a mind game
im still sitting here thinking about Goken's Impressive ultra miss
I want to see Gootecks vs Max, first to 30.
So my name twice in the list of players in the beginning, but I was 2 bars each time, guess we'll never play.
that gouken ultra whiff.......
real ass street fighter
4:20-4:35 dem drops lolol
since when did tatsumaki not allow evil ryu not to go through projectiles
I have so much trouble teching a grab. How do you know when to tech a grab?
Hey Maximilian, I know you like to play as E.ryu but I prefer oni and I know he has a large hitbox and his fireballs really bad but his damage he does in his combos is huge and if you learn oni's strengths and weaknesses and the next thing you know you will be great with him and for a bonus he has a red and yellow color and i hope this comment helped you and if it did have great day :D.
+Roberta Beasley this video is 2014
what are all the outfits for evil ryu ?
Hey Max, you have to realize you have full Ultra to punish sometimes. I know you like to go for the tough links and combos, but seriously, punishing with a full Ultra is just as viable. 4:24 7:22
11:48 - What the hell? Goken can FA in the air?!
Nah, he has a sort of armor move in the air after his own "demon flip" thing. He can soak moves in the air....
Max is that guy that will face a noob and believe he will get his ass kicked.
Unrelated thought to the video Max but with capcom potentially selling off the rights to its properties any thoughts on the fighting game insanity if Arc System Works got a hold of the brand. Just imagine GG v BB v SF.
Tip 1: if the player jumps do goshoryu or Ex goshoryu
What fightstick does max use for sf?
I think that his name was shin or shun from the movie alpha the animation anyway I feel that Ryun little brother should be in here in his young age then like will play more then
I won't debate or hate on your opinions, but I will disagree. Street Fighter for me will always be something like Rog vs Yun, or Vega vs Yuri Juri. And with all due respect and no trolling, El Fuerte vs Rufus. Anyone else got a crazy match they love to watch/play?
Real talk. Can we get a week of Sakura?
did that video ran on 60 fps ?
you know its been a while since you did a boss rage video.
I was thinking maybe you can fight Giga bowser in super smash bros. melee adventure mode. on Very Hard. you probably know this already but just in case, you have to reach giga bowser by going through the adventure mode without using a continue. its ok to lose a few lives on the way but once you see that continue screen you have to start over. the game also has to be on normal or higher difficulty for him to appear after regular bowser
How come his voice mutes whenever he gets loud enough?
I wanna fight max once. Not cuz I think ill win. Just cuz it would be fun as hell to fight someone like this 😊 win or lose
how do i get in on this action. XBOX 360? and i'm using a cat-5 cable, is that good enough? learning trial by error for me with KEN
Whats th3 difference between ken and ryu? Like I know their specials and stuff are different but is there a more techical thing I'm missing? I'm not really all into fighting games I just enjoy watching the vids. I just ask cause whenever I see a street fighter vid I always see people pick ken over ryu or akuma when they seem to have similar movements and attacks for the most part
Ryu is all about fundamentals and zoning out your oppenent. You pretty much just control the match until you win, but ken has alot more style. He's more of a rush down and combo the living fuck out of you kind of character.
small differences make their play styles very different. like ken's step kick. that one move makes him extremely more mobile than ryu.
cosmicalryu ahh thanks
ryu is boring and simple
GET RID OF MY CHUN!!!! GET RID OF MY CHUN!!!! GET RID OF MY CHUN!!!!
can someone tell me the sound that plays when he get a new sub on stream?
what control you use?
id really like to see you work with yun in ssf4. your crazy good with him in third strike even though hes like completely different in certain ways in ssf4 i think it would be cool :D
Your over head tatsu, puts you in a bad position, what I mean is it wiffs over the opponents head and puts you in the corner, but overall I love your gameplays max👍🏼
low strong kick after focus attack, you can do better!
how the f*** did gouken(Mchachew) miss that!?
Has there ever been an Evil Ken???
There was but he was in an SNK crossover.
Violent Ken he was called.
There we go. I couldn't put my finger as to what his title was. Thanks for clarifying.
10 days till EVO!!!,
360p? WHAT IS HAPPENING?
I'm trying to learn E.Ryu myself but I cant.
Trying to use Oni here, but I'm really not that great at fighting games in general but at least I can use his super, that's good enough for me XD
4:24 Just use your damn Ultra already...
I recall the name spliced helix...
I remember the first time I went online not only was he my first Guile opponent he was the first person to destroy me in like 10sec. I remember the beating like it was yesterday *hides in corner*
NO. CHUN'S THIGHS STAY.
I hate fighting Abel... How the hell do you do it?
i have ps4 cant wait for them to drop a new version for the ps4..
and my character favorite of all time .. the demon himself akuma...
LMBO at 4:27, AH SH**, AH SH**!!!!
hey max check out lag buster its a new type of router/modem and its a new thing all cod players are about to use.
These Gouken players always keep dashing in and out all over the place, this character is surprisingly nimble.
Also Max you don't fadc cr.mk hadoken and then look if it hits and they are stand our rouching, you react if the cr.mk is hitting. If cr.mk hit you fadc, i it isn't, you don't, otherwise you are wasting precious meter. Still not bad for a 1 day e.ryu ;p
week of oni? eh eh? if you have already done this can someone link me to it. ty
shoto fighters rules!!!!
If only you was on ps3 im rank #7 elena but in AE my main was Oni i'd love to take you on it'll be a very good match.
4:24 Nooooo... I miss the stupid easy combo! Or shit... Or shit!
Spoken by all street fighter players who have played online =D
Max Please do a Guilty Gear XX week of!
id like to see some offline matches from max, i know his execution is better than this
max actually enjoying the sf4 series?? indeed marvel is DEAD
I tried to play this game and i suck , i cant seem to understand how i should time the hits to actually get a successful combo ..cant even get a simple combo lol :((((
You shall regret saying to remove chun li from Street fighter.
Dude, you gotta simplify your friggin titles to your videos. I didn't even know this was a continuation of another video until I clicked on this. Apparently this is a Part 2 to some other video. It's kinda inconvenient is all, not trying to cry about or anything.
