SB4: NEW CRACK CITY- DAIGO VS. JUSTIN! Oct. 16-18, 2009 - Columbus, OH

[ElderGOD]

Apparently you didn’t see him at Gamestop Finals/ US National when he was all in Mike Ross’s face.

Justin is no doubt the best player in North America but he’s also too cocky for his own good. Eh. Strange that I still root for the guy. I don’t know. Maybe I have a soft spot for someone who always seem to come up short against Diago every time.

Yea, Justin is cocky and when it’s Sanford vs Justin I want Sanford to win, but with Daigo it’s different. A lot of people are new to the scene so they don’t get what I’m talking about. I’m not talking about SRK join dates, what I’m talking about is actually even before SRK, back to SF2 days. The US keeps falling short to Japan. Yea, I have some favorite Japan fighting game players as well, but Justin vs Daigo today, I wanted Justin to win.

Whatever, posting with you guys seems pointless. I’m just some random old dude who has no idea what he’s talking about and knows nothing about the new gaming culture. Enjoy your XBOX lives.

ElderGOD you’re just as much of Jwong nut hugger as all the people you mock for liking Daigo. Both players are top shit. I really wish Justin would just main Rufus or Balrog…lock it down to perfection so he wouldn’t have to bounce around so much.

Also, the point about Daigo getting an Xbox…l o l. He’s not going to get a console because he’s the one getting flown out to these things and he still wins. It’s not like he just showed up. If he was competing in console tourneys more, I’m sure he would, but he doesn’t. People invite him to these things to make some money off of his name.

Great job with the stream Seb. And great job to the organizers of SB4. After BF2, this was an extremely refreshing event. Haven’t had this much fun watching SF since Evo.

Whoever was on SkiSonic’s account said he does have the console version and spends a lot of time in training mode, just he doesn’t get a lot of live practice against console chars.

Lets not mistaken.

Building hype =/= Cocky

[TheBlueCrow]

I’ll watch Daigo matches to learn shit but like I keep repeating for people like you, I can’t stand Sagat/Shotos zzzzzzzz.

Awwwwwwwwwwwww, QQ. Me either. QQ.

Also, mad props to Joe for his showing at SB4. People continually bagged on him for being the weak link on the EC/EMP Arc team. But he came to SB4, placed in the money, and played Daigo very competitively in a match that Daigo himself admitted was his best match up.

[System_1]

yeah I think Joe and Santhrax have both shown that they’ve leveled up

This should be remembered.

Among all the Wong vs Umehara buzz,Joe played his best IV match so far.We all know that he’s not on the level of Mago,but the guy is improving and he can definitively become way better than he is currently.The guy is starting to justify his spot on the EC team,but he need to be more consistent.

there was a point where i thought that he was going to beat daigo. then daigo started to get pissed and dizzied sagat like 2-3 times.

mago and joe are my favourite sagat players. they both play the character in a different way to the norm, different from each other too.

the last two people joe has lost to are alex valle and daigo…like that’s something to be ashamed of lol. daigo has been raping mago for fun recently.

as for justin, his plan backfired. i think when he looks back on it…in a kind of weird way he will probably be happy he didn’t win with fei just because of all the shit that would be thrown at him how he didn’t win legit ect ect.

[kampret]

any result from the money matches? didn’t know the steam was still on after the grand final

[kaneka]

Can’t wait for the vids/DVD.

FA.com recorded, correct?

If by shit you mean the extra 2000 dollars, Justin Wong could have gotten.

[DJ_San]

Was fun meeting some of you folks, see you again next year.

[Rice_Eater]

BTW, did they say how many people entered each tourney? I just want to know how big the prize money was for each tournament.

[Ev1L]

Daigo vs dgv in hdr? this i have to see! When will the vids be made available? any commentary on this match?

[Scrub_Goku_Satsu]

250 ppl in SF4. $10 an entry and they said all entry money went into the prize fund so a prize pool of 2500. That was on a 70/20/10 split, so winner took home $1750.

Right before seb shut down the stream he said he was going to go up to the room to record the MMs.

[Eileithyia]

anybody has the url for the match video? i know they probably won’t be up for couple of days.

[System_1]

I think in hindsight (always a wonderful thing) Justin made a mistake in choosing Fei in the Winner vs Winner round.
He would have been better to used Balrog or Rufus and even if he lost he would have made it back to the final.

Then he could have sprung Fei taken the first set, reset, and gone into the 2nd set with momentum and not give Daigo time to go away and think about the Fei matchup.

whoo SBIV was so much fun, glad i was there
