One thing I’ve noticed about Daigo’s Evil Ryu compared to his Ryu is his refusal to jump at his opponent. He’s not giving his opponent a reason not to true fireballs. I guess he’s so confident in his ground game, he doesn’t want to jump. I also think its making his ground/fireball game weaker.
Xiao Hai on a crusade to annoy Emil
Japanese are free to xiao hai (he was defeated by El Fuerte before Pepeday)
We need a hero. A hero of poverty.
That face…I hope someone captured that.
Thank you Based Snake Eyez!
diago is definitely thinking “awesome he beat luffy but fuck if he wins out shit wont go well” and i totally just realized there are 8 not 7 people so my above statement is fucked lol
I noticed the same thing, he only challenged Xiaohai once from what I can remember with a jump in and got DP’d for it. Xiaohai got anti-air’d plenty of times himself, but taking as much as 160 damage to as little as 30(from the 2nd hit of a MP DP), who the fuck cares when you’ve been so successful with your reads and doing nearly half health damage with full jump in combos. He weighed the risk and kept taking them since his success rate seemed like 50%.
Another thing is that Daigo was being a meter hog. I guess he kept wanting to save it for Super. He did the same thing against his other opponents but unlike all the other characters, this one was a fireball match up. He wasn’t using it much for EX fireball which Xiaohai was more willing to do. Which coincidentally was one of the reasons why he lost to Choi at EVO. That one match where Xiaohai jumped out of the kara Super, everybody saw that coming.
Is it possible for anyone to win other than Daigo/Kaz/Luffy at this point?
Snake Eyez only has 2 losses so he’s still in the running. He’s playing Xiaohai right now who just counter picked him with Sagat.
This is what I imagined Bonchan vs Snake would look like, but fuck Xiohai just wants to see people lose at this point lol.
Watching that broke my heart. :’(
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Snakeyez’s tech is very much inferior to some of the other Gief player’s tech and he needs to work on his option selects. Not saying it would have helped much against Xiaohai but it’s something that was very apparent in his other matches.
I didn’t see the match but I still find it kind of funny at how badly Snake-Eyez got rekt. Who would’ve thought **Xiaohai’s **Sagat would be the one to do it? Still, I heard Xiaohai played very well.
Snake just gets destroyed by players who can outfootsie him period. It’s more of a Gief problem than anything, but Momochi, Daigo, and Xiaohai all beat him by just knowing when to press buttons.
Snake Eyez is going down hard
Thank God for the BEAST! Thank God for Street Fighter!
Ok, maybe you’ll think that I’m biased because I’m french but I’m actually biased because I play Chun ; fuck dive kicks in this engine… dive kick beating an anti air into a 50% combo, yeah great I love this game so much. Worst part, even if you spend a meter it loses to the freakin jump anyway.
Daigo and kazu are mad good obviously, but come on capcom… jumps all day because it’s just worth it ? fuck that.
lol at this:
I guess this confirms that the Japanese(or just Daigo) doesn’t do pot splits lol.
Why did Air not translate properly though?
I hate that shit, just say what he’s saying ffs.
People always think Japanese are robots or don’t have any humor, and now I’m asking myself if the translators are just dumb.
