This advice is great, I'm working on challenge mode right now in my path to get better. Ky is my main and I went back through the tutorial, which gave me some great ideas. My problem currently that I can't overcome, is that damn shoryuken motion. 1 out 8 times I'll connect it. I'm using a fighting stick currently too if that helps, also one thing I've been wondering is the input timing. Nothing or no one really has explained if I should be entering in commands with a "Rhythm", Super speed, Or slow speed.
I'm loving this game so far though, getting combos and actively understanding how to counterattack is satisfying. :D
