A glitch in Street Fighter 6's Drive Rush mechanic has been discovered, where if two players input the action at the same time, one player will receive a screen freeze effect before the other, giving them an advantage in exchanges. This is due to the game adding an extra frame to the startup during the screen freeze for the first character. The glitch has been highlighted along with another bug that allows for infinite Drive Gauge usage, and it is hoped that these issues will be addressed in future updates.
Daigo Umehara, a renowned Street Fighter player, has expressed his belief that Ryu is not strong enough to compete in Street Fighter 6.

He also discusses the importance of Okizeme in the game and how it poses a challenge for Ryu.
Daigo Umehara has been winning a lot in the Street Fighter 6 Demo and believes the game rewards offense better than Street Fighter 5. He also likes the game's design and believes it caters more towards his playstyle.

Professional Street Fighter player Daigo Umehara is unsure about maining Ryu or Guile in Street Fighter 6, stating that while Ryu feels good to play, he doesn't want to pick him just because he's Ryu. He also expressed doubts about Guile's prominence in the game, saying that if he stands out too much, it could mean he's not fun to play and could overshadow other characters. Umehara is most curious about JP, Marisa, Jamie, Lily, and even Zangief, with Jamie being the frontrunner among the newcomers. Ultimately, his main has to be both strong and fun to play.
