''For more information about Ken, please see his [[Street Fighter Alpha/Characters/Ken|Street Fighter Alpha]] and [[Street Fighter III/Characters/Ken|Street Fighter III]] entries.''
''[[Capcom/Move lists#Ken_Masters|Click here]] for more information about Ken's other fighting game appearances.''


While [[Street Fighter II/Characters/Ryu|Ryu]] and Ken follow the same martial arts discipline, as the Street Fighter series evolved, the differences between the two characters was portrayed by their attacks: Ryu focused on technique while Ken opted for stylish unpredictability.  Ken mainly focuses on the Shoryuken move, to the point where his Shoryukens set the opponent on fire. Ken's Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku does not allow him to dodge projectiles at the start of the spin, but spins faster, allows him to hit his opponent up to five times. Ken's Hadouken attacks are less concentrated than Ryu's, but Ken's Shoryuken is more powerful.
