Street Fighter 6 Receives Major Balance Update, Buffing Ryu and Nerfing JP
• Ryu received notable buffs, with his Hashogeki special becoming safer on block. The light version is now -3 instead of -4, and the heavy version leaves Ryu closer on block for better mix-ups.
• JP was hit with several nerfs, like removing upper body invincibility on his crouching heavy punch and increasing the scaling on his Overdrive Amnesia.
• The patch represents the largest balance tweak yet for Street Fighter 6.
• Rooflemonger created a visual guide demonstrating the important changes in this patch.
• Bug fixes for Dhalsim were skipped in the video guide.
