The Skill parameter has been removed from Smasher infoboxes, and in its place are the new "Best historical ranking" and "Best tournament result" parameters. SmashWiki needs help adding these new parameters to Smasher infoboxes, refer to the guidelines here for what should be included in these new parameters. |
When adding results to Smasher pages, include each tournament's entrant number in addition to the player's placement, and use the {{Trn}} template with the matching game specified. Please also fix old results on Smasher pages that do not abide to this standard. Refer to our Smasher article guidelines to see how results tables should be formatted. |

'''Shoto''' or '''Shotoclone''' | '''Shoto''' or '''Shotoclone''' refers simultaneously to: | ||
*[[Ryu]] | *[[Ryu]] | ||
*[[Ken]] | *[[Ken]] | ||
<!--Don't include Kazuya | <!--Don't include Kazuya and Terry--> | ||
The term originates from what {{uv|Street Fighter}} players call characters derived from Ryu, a phrase derived from "[https://streetfighter.fandom.com/wiki/Shotokan Shotokan]", which is a colloquialism for anyone who fights using his style in the ''Street Fighter'' series of games—typically restricted to having a [[Hadoken|fireball]], a [[Shoryuken|jumping uppercut]] that functions as an anti-air, and a [[Tatsumaki Senpukyaku|spinning kick]] that gives forward momentum. It is derived from an error in the instruction manual of the SNES version of ''Street Fighter II'', which claimed this was the branch of karate that Ryu and Ken practiced (in reality, they practice an in-universe art called Ansatsuken). Since Ken is an [[Echo Fighter]] of Ryu in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', players may use this term to refer to both of them simultaneously when applicable. | |||
In the context of ''SSBU'', [[Terry]] and [[Kazuya]] are occasionally grouped as shotos. However, this is a common misinterpretation as both characters come from "traditional" fighting games, which feature 1-on-1 battles with command inputs and always face their opponent, while in actuality these do not meet the requirements of being considered a shoto. As such, this distinction does not apply to both Terry and Kazuya. | |||
