I don´t wanna sound like a hater or fanboy but in my opinion Inflitration won only because daigo palyed way to much matches and was all night long up the day before finals. He played completly different than in pre top 8.
ONE DAY YOU WILL ALL WITNESS THE RISE OF MAGO FROM THE ASHES. HE WILL RISE AGAIN AND REVEAL STRATEGIES WE HAD BEEN UNABLE TO COMPREHEND.
/fanboy
any vids up at the grand finals of that?
I <3 mago too, because I speak japanese I watch all the topangatv streams and he is hilarious
I only know of two qualifiers. Haven’t found the finals sorry :C

Japanese are so good at this game they eliminate themselves and therefore don’t win.
Maannnn, you make the best excuses
Daigo said he practiced plenty and did his best. Infiltration just practiced more and was ready to win. Daigo has never made the top 8 look as easy as infiltration did. Infiltration said he wasn’t nervous at all I’m sure the other players were.
None of the links work and Chrome says DJ’s link is malicious
Man I just didn’t wish it was koreans. These guys have waaayyy too much national pride.
Sorry about that. Don’t know why they aren’t working.

DJYin’s link is fine. You should be able to go to the page anyway if that message is actually from Chrome and not another program.
Infiltration continuing his domination at the Asia qualifier, but he actually looked human this time. Poongko and Gamerbee put up great fights despite losing. Infiltration is still the favorite to win the whole thing, but he won’t catch anybody off guard next time because right now he’s got the biggest target on his back and it’s him that everybody will be paying the most attention to at the Grand Finals of the SF 25th Anniversary Tournament series.
I also found it interesting how Poongko’s style has evolved. He plays a lot more footsies now and is very careful in general now. He went for so many baits instead of attacking or using SPD which he hardly used. I wonder if he can try to qualify in the LA qualifier or one of the other international quals. I really want to see him make it in for SF4 if possible. It really sucks how he lost that last match, he misjudge the range and went for st. HP when it was too far away. A cr. MP into legs would have probably finished it. Too bad, I would have loved to see it go to a final round.
Dude made a combo video out of all the top players, he is clearly DA BEST atm
FT3 set with Tokido, and Tokido won. Not at a major though.

That match doesn’t realy prove anything other than that tokido might be a bit better in a mirror (it’s still too short of a set). Infiltration might be not the best in mirrors but match up knowledge is definetly a lot more important.
Tokido sucks at the mirror. Well, at least vs Eita.
And Tokido is arguably better at the mirror than Infiltration for that same reason. He has many other top Akuma’s to face like Eita, -6, Fujino, and so on. So even he isn’t better than Eita or some of those other guys at the mirror, he has tons of experience against high level Akuma’s. Infiltration has no one in Korea as far as we know.
stop making excuses the nigga got bopped tokido is now evo champ
I’ve said it before and I will say it again. Don’t ever judge an Akuma player by the mirror match up. I mean if we did that I could say I am better than Tokido since I beat him at the mirror match up, but I am not because Tokido is more consistent in the other 38 match ups in the game.
The Akuma mirror is random because any tiny slip up is usually the round. The better player can come out on top, but the weaker player tends to get more wins that he really should.
And what is your reasoning for this conclusion?
I blame Infiltration (Penetration now? lol) for the recent infestation of Akumas. These guys are in for a rude awakening.
