If you play Ryu, I most certainly can help. Currently Diamond 3/4

for ken there's a simple character guides and combo sheets in coaching channel but I can hook you up with the basic meterless combos I use. Or tell you through what things ken usually routes through so you can "build your own combos" if you want

For ken the only combos youll really need starting out are chin buster > run > tatsu (corner carry), chin buster > run > dragonlash > heavy DP (side switch) and for cashing out just use the side switch combo but replace DP with level 3.

Later on you can learn more flashy/optimal stuff but for now thats honestly all you should learn before the essentials (getting to know your character and if you're new to the game learning the mechanics), its easy and it works.

#

for OKI, after run tatsu you can do double dash > cr.mp, double dash > grab, or just shimmy.

after side switch I honestly just use double dash > grab and sometimes shimmy.

#

this is assuming you're new to the game entirely

after run tatsu into double dash for the strike you can do stand jab (5lp) instead of cr. mp which is a bit better imo bc it can go into target combo even on normal hit(punishing jumps or backdash for 2k damage) and it leaves you +1 in throw range even if blocked. Drive reversal and 10f super safe too.

can do 2lk xx 2lp xx 5lp or 5lp xx 2lk xx 5lp if you want to add a low there if you notice people like to walk back out of your pressure later.
