Ken sticks out his leg and lets the hitbox linger for the full jump like j.A. More useful as a jump-in, especially since the long active frames can catch a lot of bad anti-airs.

A massive damage anti-air and reversal super. The lightning fast startup and high damage can make this a very attractive metered alternative to Shoryuken, but it shares the same issue with horizontal range, and works in only a few combos. When in range however, it makes for a massive damage alternative, and can be a very worthwhile way to spend a bar, especially since Ken can easily taunt to regain the meter after a successful connect. | A massive damage anti-air and reversal super.

This can be started from any Tatsu hit, allowing Ken to realistically TOD most of the cast in the right situation. | This is also an anywhere juggle, meaning it breaks normal juggle rules to allow for combos that aren't normally possible.

Ken is Ryu's best friend and training partner. Heir to the Master's family, Ken comes from a lot of wealth and power. He was rowdy and energetic throughout his youth, and loved to get into fights. To ensure his son didn't become too much of a hassle, his father sent him to train with an old friend named Gouken. There, he met Ryu, and the two became rivals as they learned to master the arts of shotokan karate. Ken joins the Street Fighter tournament for the same reason as Ryu, hoping to fight highly skilled opponents from around the world.
Ken is the second in the duo that the community commonly calls "shotos". In the original Street Fighter 1, Ken was simply a player 2 alt with no differences to Ryu. SF1MR adds minor differences, usually just small frame data changes. While Ryu has more frame advantage to take care of his lack of mix with substantial pressure options, Ken trades that out for a faster fireball and DP game, giving him effectively better zoning than Ryu.
In comparison to Ryu, Ken is generally faster but lacks the same frame advantage. His Shoryuken (6236P) is incredible, being active on the first frame and going incredibly high. These make amazing reversals and defensive tools, but still maintain the same high risk. His Tatsumaki Senpukyaku (214K) is faster overall, and allows for some stronger corner combos, alongside only being 0 on block unlike Ryu's -3 version. Ken's Hadouken (236P) fireball is a frame faster, but unfortunately is also a frame slower on recovery, and lacks the same frame advantage that Ryu has from his.
The two have a large difference in their supers. Ken has Shoryureppa (236236P), an easy to confirm combo ending super, and Shinryuken (236236K), a stellar anti-air/reversal super with some amazing combo potential in the corner with Ken's Shinryuken loops. Overall, Ken has better anti-airs and more potential damage, plus better defense. However, he lacks Ryu's stable zoning, powerful super, and better frame advantage.
