Ryu's infinite combos become a masterclass in reactive execution across this 118-hit, 100% damage sequence. After weeks of practice, desk ditched rigid planning in favor of learning the feel of Ryu's offense—understanding how the opponent reacts to early or late jump attacks, recovering when they drop too low, and landing quick crouch cancels under pressure. The real challenge emerges in managing V-Ism timing: optimizing opponent height before the ability runs out, then switching to turn-around cancels to keep the juggle alive. What looks effortless is actually constant micro-adjustments—tracking spacing as Ryu bounces back and forth, reading the opponent's position, and making split-second decisions to prevent the combo from collapsing. Sustaining this for over a minute without failure requires absorbing dozens of small details and responding to each one. This isn't about memorization; it's about developing the sensitivity to feel when something is off and adjusting on the fly.
I've been practicing this on and off for a few weeks and after a while it became clear that it wouldn't be feasible to plan out every single hit of a 100% damage combo. Instead it would have to be (after the first 20 or so hits) improvised. Most of the practice time was spent just learning the feel of Ryu's infinites. Literally how the opponent reacts when you hit jump attacks…

Literally how the opponent reacts when you hit jump attacks early/late, how to recover if they fall too low and the combo is at risk of failing, nailing quick crouch cancels etc. Getting a loop or 2 of this is one thing but keeping it up for over a minute without it failing is so
