ryu has advantage that ken doesnt !
ryu's fireball are bigger so then are difficult to avoid.
in sf2 original ryu and ken werent the same ! normal moves were different and throw moves were too ken had power and ryu had speed ! that was the real differences !
try a roll throw with both and you'll see what i mean !
Yes, Ryu's fireball is bigger than Ken's, but that doesn't make it any harder to avoid. Ken's smaller fireball will STILL nullify it. And as I said before, with Ken you can simply jump straight up and throw a fireball diagonally downwards at Ryu while Ryu's fireball passes safely underneath him.
Now, as far as Ken and Ryu being different in the original SF2. You are quite erroneous in this statement. Have you even played the original SF2? The one and ONLY difference between the two of them is that Ken's roundhouse throw rolls twice before releasing the opponent. Every other move is IDENTICAL. Their short, forward, roundhouse, jab, strong, and fierce moves look exactly the same, take the same amount of time to execute, and do the EXACT same amount of damage. Ryu and Ken take the same amount of time to travel from one side of the screen to the other. Their special moves are identical. Even the graphics for their bodies look identical, with the exception of their heads. Capcom reused the same animation for both of their walks. Ryu and Ken have no advantage over each other whatsoever in this game. Play it, and you will see.
By the way, why do you put "!" after every sentence in every single post?
