The Official 3rd Strike Match Vids Thread

lol @ RX50Cent

dope name

win counts and ryu’s stage ftw lol

Lol

Good one.

Heh, Youtube is serious business. It’s hard to tell who’s at fault here, Louie and Dickson for joking around w/ the Japanese names, or those scrubs making those retarded comments even though they would get butchered by either of those guys in 3S.

lol “some black scrub”

so who is louie and dickson?? I mean, I watched a few minutes of it with an open mind and the matches did look pretty good… However after a few minutes the Yun did a few things that you just wouldnt see from KO even if he played one handed.

Kokujin’s ending blow was legendary. Best announcer too ;[

Did somebody say one handed?

(watch very end of video)

I agree although not KO and RX they were far from scrubs. Had they kept it in arcade mode I bet they could have fooled some people.

Two of my vids

My most recent foray into the arcade. FnG @ NJ, decent night. Played a bit better than usual, but those (close) wins and losses werent recorded. I’m Ken.

Anything I can do or not do to improve my game? Thanx.

Excellent execution on the chicken combo. Really impressive. I don’t really like your wake-up c.mp on Ken, he could’ve (and should’ve) easily punished it on block. Your opponent was kinda weak too, so get people better than you, that’s the best way to level up.

EDIT - oops, that’s not him.

there’s a black Ken in both vids so I should assume you’re the Ken player? I’m not a Ken player but I saw several things I can mention:

close fierce into DP when he gets up? very unsafe, not confirmable, there are better options.

EX FB is good in the right spot, but you spent a lot of meter doing that in moments where there really was no need to.

You’re not pressing the action very much. Ken’s defense is good but there’s no reason to back up against Oro or Urien afaik.

Careful with EX tatsu against short characters.

Probably most important thing: Look at some vids and learn from good Ken players. Look at the mixups, which moves they use at which range and against what character. Think about why they do it and why it works. Looks like you’re missing some basics tbh.

If’ you’re not the Ken player then you can ignore all this, but if you are… then you can ignore all this too.

There is an official video thread stricky’d at the top General Strategy.

he’s the ken because i know that oro personally. i’m also that urien.

Oh okay, my mistake.

Block more.

no one seeding the gamers vision ranbat…

I’ve turned mine back on again :slight_smile:

louie and dickson are two players from toronto …louie is probably the best urien now that Ack left and dickson probably the best yun

mashurien

it all becomes clear now, he certainly didn’t look like KO. pretty sweet ex shoulder parry from the urien player to win

Ok that makes me feel better. After how everyone flamed the vid for trying to be RX and KO, when at the same time I was just thinking “How are they so sure???” :rofl:

Thread mergers make me dizzy. Also, on that fake RX and KO vid, the poster defended it as a joke, but I don’t see the humor I’m afraid. It would have been funny if they really sucked, but the Urien player is pretty good so… that makes it not funny to me >_<
