Hey all,

So, I was messing around on this trial and studying what Ryu's AI does based on Akuma and his spacing. I quickly realized that neutral jumping would result in Ryu trying to Shoryuken (from about 1-2 back dashes away). 

I figured a simple way to score a knockdown was Akuma's hurricane kick to reset the situation to neutral jump again. Sure enough, Ryu's AI would try to anti-air with Shoryuken, and I'd repeat. I canceled his standing fierce into roundhouse hurricane kick for each repetition which is just enough to dizzy Ryu. From there, well... literally, the rest writes itself. 

I included simple notation in the video.

To start off the repetitions, simply hold up and wait for Ryu to try an anti-air Shoryuken. From there, it's just about proper spacing.

I know it's not the noblest way to finish this handicap trial, but I'll upload a video of me doing it the real way later on. Until then, I hope this AI exploit helps people stuck on completing this. It was well designed. Sort of.

I'm also not sure if it's coincidence or not, but Ryu seems to like trying the anti-air Shoryukening AFTER you fail the trial once. Ryu's AI didn't seem to keen to try it at the start unless Akuma had already lost a round. 

Maybe that's just my luck, though. 

After losing he seemed to try it at the start of new attempt; however.
