Ryu sends you crashing down to reality with these hard knockdown setups for Street Fighter V

Not much emphasis has been placed on Ryu as a character in Street Fighter V over the course of Season 2. While he has become staggeringly weaker in this version of the game, he still can be optimized to continue to be a threat.

In this video, World Warrior shows off some nasty hard knockdown setups for Ryu, in a similar vein to the ones he showcased for Ken and Akuma. Utilizing various tricks including left/right mix-ups, this gives Ryu more damage potential than just his neutral game provides.

SSBM Tutorials discusses the insane pressure Sheik can place with the Sami Nair

In this video from SSBM Tutorials, they discuss the tricks Sheik can perform in conjunction with various stage platforms. That’s not the only thing she can do, but this one gets a little more tricky.

Using a combination of short hop, fast fall, and her neutral air, she can create an insane amount of pressure from a tactic known as the Sami Nair. While this sounds great in theory, in practice, the amount of precise inputs required to do this and not get an up-air or down-air makes this one of the more difficult techniques in Super Smash Bros. Melee.
