Who is the best samurai shodown player?

when it comes to Samurai Shodown 1 and probably 2

it’s one of those games where everyone THINKS they’re the best

…but in reality in SS2 only Ukyo players are the best :smiley:

As for Enja, in SS damage means nothing compared to riskyness

Man your sarcasm detector needs work. I even threw in the “energy off” part. :lol:

I can say Uchiyama was the best SS5 player as he won SBO. :sweat:
As for SS5S, there wasn’t really an offline scene in Japan, was there?

Enja is considered low tier with even with his speed up bug.

Your wrong , first of all alot of the players on that list are offline players and acouple are very famous and i have never played them.

kasa AKA acty is best shizumaru in japan. He wins every ss5sp arcade tournament that he has enterd in the last 3 years. He is one of the best ss players in japan

houru9 aka wata is the best yunfie from japan in ssvsp. he was in sbo2004 and he made it to the finals with yoshitora. He lost to jeo a famous player you guys might know of. He is also one of the best ss players in japan.

Stud is best samurai shodown player from china. He was one of the founding members of lassky.net (1st generation). He quit playing samsho when ss6 came out.

basara is the 2nd best samurai shodown player from china, i dont know much about him besides he uses basara and is 2nd best in all of china at ss5sp.

Hotdoghanzo is the best ss4 player in the world i bet. He has played manny great players in ss4 and has never lost. He has been dominating ss4 for years. He is from korea . There is not a better player from korea who plays ss4 i can garantee you.

fusemasuta is best hanzo from japan, any time you see a really good hanzo on youtube or where ever it is fusemasuta. His rera in ss6 is best in japan. and right now he is currently best vangaurd princess player from japan. He doesnt like to play online but he does every nowand then.

I dont play ss2 but hunj who was from china has never lost on american soil. And he said the best guy he played in usa was another guy from china :slight_smile:

There are alot of offline players on that list, its just over time everyone plays online cause its the best way to find alot of good competition.

I am a enja expert, my doom combo(123 combo) is about 70%. Enja is low tier only because of his mobility and speed. His attacks are very slow compared to other characters. If enja whiffs his doom combo he will lose over half his life vs a good player. I have yet to see a player that could do enja’s doom combo 100% or even 90%. Even if some one could hit with doom combo 100% of the time it would still not make enja good because the doom combo is hard to connect vs a good player anyways.

your the typical kid that i hate saying stuff about samurai shodown. You like to pretend like you know stuff but you dont.

Uchiyama was ok, at the time he won sbo he was one of the best but still not the best. Just because you win a tournament doesnt make you the best player. Wata who is on the players list @ hS.net was also in top 8 in sbo04. So how is the list only online players.

ss5sp had an arcade scene and still does, its just it never made it to SBO. But there where alot of ACHO cups and random tournaments like that for ss5sp. The players i mentioned to you (acty,wata,fusemasuta) are all famous ss5sp arcade players in japan. As well as some others i didnt mention.

With the speed glitch enja is god tier. On a grab he can take 100% life easy. No other character can combo after CD grab, but speed glitch enja can. I have never played you in ss5 but i can garantee you if i used speed glitch enja you could never win a match.

Ok now getting to the topic, best samurai shodown players.

ss4- fire(china),hotdoghanzo(korea),Stud(china),slash(usa),vansibel(canada)

ss5 and ss5sp- kasa(japan),watakun(japan),stud(china),basara(china),fusemasuta(japan),Goroto(japan),tomono(japan),Uchiyama(???).Jeo(japan), ATC(japan),m216xlegendx(usa).kasuki(china),O K(china),HK(japan). tomono and goroton where the favorites to win sbo04 ssv. HK is known as best ukyo from japan. He was also sbo04 ss5 announcer :slight_smile:

ss6- mishima(japan),fusemasuta(japan),doi(japan),puera43(usa),m216xlegendx(usa),Kasuki(china),O K(china),ADA(japan). Im missing alot of players in ss6 because i Dont know how to say thier names. Go to RIMSIZ youtube account, all his video’s have the pro ss5 and ss6 players from japan. Maybe some one can translate thier names.

I may have left out some players, but for the most part these are the best players around the world.

As fas as samurai shodown sen goes I WILL BE THE BEST :slight_smile: hahahah seriously… I dont know of any famous ss7 players, i think all the old pro’s do not play it.

That sounds like the most bad ass combo in the history of fighting games. The DOOM combo. :lol: So difficult to pull off, but if you get it…oh boy.

I know a lot about SS, even if you’re one of the best online players, I won’t take shit from you.

I agree.

I’ve watched a-cho videos online, so I’m actually aware of this. However SS5S is pretty much an obscure game compared to SS5.

Why must you boast that I can’t grab you?

No personal offence but why are players like Moralesu, redpooh, Swordfish, Souji, etc there (I’ve played all of them). They certainly aren’t the best but they’re good. You’re saying God 2.0 compares with HK? :rofl:

im the best ss3 player

All the players you mentioned are new for the most part. God 2.0 is good but as you can see i didnt put him on my best players list for ss5. SS5zero had no scene at all besides sbo. Thats why most the players who did good in sbo04 ss5 didnt even play samurai shodown games. Poeple love ss5sp , ss5 zero was very broken yunfie,yoshitora where just cheap. I played ss5zero on xbox live for along time so i am very aware if its “scene”.

I wasnt syaing you couldnt grab me, I said you couldnt win vs my speed glitch enja and thats only because he is super cheap.

Why is doom combo so hard? Looks awesome btw…

Six Realms Raging Flame is hard because you should time its third input to aim directly at center of opponent’s body as he flies across you. If you mistime third input, you will screw third part of combo and Enja will fall down and collapse instead of dealing devastating last hit. After Enja is collapses, he remains open for hit for ALOT of time, which means opponent can punish him with anything, even most slow and risky (yet damaging) move, such as Haohmaru’s Steel Slash Flash.

tl;dr
doom combo is high risk high reward

It’s almost a just frame in terms of difficulty.

Holy shit @ that doom combo. Its crazy as hell to watch someone at so much health just flat out die.

Enja is a complete hellraiser.

You can try to go to 2DF and clear the crowd with Enja’s qcf+A_qcf+B_qcf+C. Good luck :smiley:

Ill put some doom combo video links, please tell me if they need to be taken down.

[media=youtube]mMXWbJMbYS4[/media] (this vid is a match,but i hit doom combo 100% and i hit 4 times)

[media=youtube]Uga5OWqieUM&feature=related[/media] (this is another match of me vs kbk enja vs enja)

I talked to meito who is one of the best enja’s in japan. And he said his record is 37 doom combo’s in arow… But he mainly played ss5zero and casually played ss5sp.

If some one in usa makes a tournament for samurai shodown 6 PLEASE tell me. I will show up, and not only will i show up but i will bring acouple other good players too.

Or if there is a major tournament near ohio and some one wants to play some casuals i will show up:)

I dont know how to set up tournaments at SRK events, but if this is an option i would maybe even consider doing it for samurai shodown games. At the least i will come and play casuals in ss3,ss4,ss5,ss6. So i dont know, at this piont im willing to do what ever to find competition.

Why not come to Final Round next year?

We have a SS tourney every year. Last year was SS2, the year before was Tenka.

I wanna see Tenka again this year.
