SFIII: 3rd Strike - Ken [Chinta] vs Urien [RX]

[DarkStarFist]

whatever happened to Ken's roll and kick moves? They even took away his ariel throw. I really thought he was going to be fast and versatile. A whole different creature than Ryu, but I think capcom is trying to suppress his fan attraction. I remember in SF2 you could spin kick a guy twice then snatch em in a knee bash grab. With every game, he loses more of what he had before, but the players still find a way to tear up the screen with him. Capcom can't keep him down.

[ScottMcSanchez]

Chinta was probably one of the most underrated Ken players of his time. Every match I've seen him in has always been consistently good.

[finalsent]

wow ken was awesome this match!

[MissKuchiki]

Fake, you can tell by Urien's Random super

[dizzak101]

@MissKuchiki Wasn't random he was planning on hitting that first hit but, it got parried instead.

[royalhunt0603]

けんうめええ！！！感動した！ありがとう！

[caffeine150]

I've only seen chinta and diago beat RX.  possibly one other I can't remember.

[mosesthompkins]

@caffeine150 fujiwara beat him one time but RX beat him so I guess it kinda cancels out

[ThouShallParry]

@caffeine150 And what chars. do these guys use? Shoto/High Tier? Or Real chars?

[Chaldean4life91]

@ThouShallParry

real chars? theyre put in the game for a reason. Ken has his advantages and disadvantages as does every character. dont be a scrub.

[ThouShallParry]

@Chaldean4life91 They're put in the game so scrubs can win...Period. So why dont you and everyone else who relies on the greatest chars. in the game just to...WIN...stop being scrubs and MAN THE FUCK UP! Low tier is for ppl who prefer a challenge and are always better bcuz they can win with the worst chars. in the game. Its not that hard to wrap your head around it but like they say...You can lead a scrub to water, but can't make him Think...

[Chaldean4life91]

@ThouShallParry

theyre in the game because theyre SF's icon. theyre the face of SF, and in a game where 90% of the cast is new, they HAD to be put in the game. just because you dont like them, or get trashed around by them doesnt mean you can automatically negate their existence. Low tier is for people who want a challenge and to surprise there opponents. i have a better time beating a good Ken then a good Q because i know the match-up better. theyre in the game for a reason...deal with it

[DrPolio232]

@ThouShallParry I play Rose in SSFIV and every Alpha game (she's pretty good in Alpha 2 though), along with Cody in all of those, and Ken in 3rd Strike. And I'm no scrub. So what does that make me? Some characters usually end up "better" than others, but if you lose to a Ken player (ESPECIALLY if you know you are a better player) and then just say "Oh, I lost because he plays Ken," then you are the scrub.

I don't like that word though. It's elitist...Let's just try to help people get better.

[occult702]

backflip swandive techthrow @ 1:22

[zenzybar]

@occult702 LMAO LNMAO WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

LMAO WTF

[ClickForOutkast]

This isn't RX.

[thepwner7]

this is the second match ive seen rx lose to chinta :O

[ilv244]

Now that's a Ken player. Duuude.

[LuckySevenSamson]

Top-notch Ken playing.

[jlrobeson]

The dude playing as Ken waz a BEAST!!!

[MomentsReprive]

1:21 - 1:23 was ninja-esque.

[RyukendenY]

1:22 tech throw looks cool.

[uniquewiz]

puredi's yang looks better

[Omegax9000]

hope this goes online ps3 or xbox

[Dohzr]

Get download MAME and Rom on ur PC..

And you can play online.

[Omegax9000]

why the fuck cant we parry in sf4

[snoopolion]

because it would ruin the game.

Sf4 is more like sf2 so no parrys of course.

And also i think they shoud keep the parry only in 3rd because it make the game something special.

[SilvrSeven]

that doesnt make sf4 less crappy :p

[Omegax9000]

i respect your opinion but they put the parry in on snk vs capcom sf4 is to simple imo

[dothedamnthang2]

focus attack is a form of parry, it lets you absord one hit... it connects and then lets you do any combo your heart desires ;)

[truendymion]

They should add air focus attack.

[dothedamnthang2]

that would be sick,

the focus dash cancel is an insane also... people are finding new ways to exploit it more and more.

[Omegax9000]

oh god but it would mix shit up

[Lucastic]

I know, I wish it was on SF4. There are so many situations were you can't do anything to save me from a death. Mostly when I'm left with no health to even block.

[Omegax9000]

amen corner trapping is a bitch in sf4

[smashbro5]

Lucastic I agree. Without parrying in SF4, it allows so many cheap situations that parrying prevented. Anyone with an upward attack (dragon punch, etc) can now be a wall since you go for jump attack and boom get hit with a dragon punch. With parrying, you might second guess doing a DP since the guy jumping in could be expecting it and can parry. No parrying also brings back projectile spamming, which is what I hate about watching SF2 matches. SF4 isn't awful, but it's no 3s that's for sure

[truendymion]

Anti airs aren't too bad, you just have to learn not to jump around like an idiot. Pick your jump ins carefully and don't just jump forward all the time. Bait your opponent into whiffing AA by jumping straight up, being sure your out of range, then punish. Projectile spamming can be overcome as well you just need to develop proper technique, take advantage of moves with Invincibility or Armor.

[ThouShallParry]

@truendymion This is why air parrying exists so you can jump all you want. It is your only defense in the air after all.

[richmadenigga504]

Akuma has no EX moves

[truendymion]

Yes in fact he DOES have EX moves SF4. I guess you didn't notice my comment was a response to someone's remark about corner traps in SF4.

[richmadenigga504]

Oh my bad , you were right about I didn't see the SF4 conversation. I thought you were talking about 3rd Strike.

[truendymion]

No problem I do that sometimes myself :P

[zaeroxe]

Really love the kick by the ken player at 0:31 he waits then lands it perfectly so that rx can't parry

[dothedamnthang2]

How come no one uses Yang?

[TastedDuckling]

roshihikari has a sick yang

[raxzar]

Props to rx not playing the top 3 retards ken,chun li and yun.

[YuenYun]

RX has some crazy parrying :[

[XESHADOWX]

I'd definitely have to say Deshiken is hte best Ken at the moment..

[snoopolion]

Naw not anymore.

Watch Sbo 2008 and you will see what i mean.

[dkblade27]

just because chinta owned rx, ko, and nuki doesnt mean hes the best ken.

dont judge from just a couple matches.

[snoopolion]

That was just the Strawberry on the cake.

[revinix]

wow look at the top right corner RX had 6 wins. took this guy 6 matches of the same urien to win.

[ihatemyskin]

nope, not true, those 6 wins were against other players...Chinta never lost once against a Urien player.

[FaloxMagic]

i recently started to use urien and damn ken and gouki is such a god damn hard targets for urien <.<

[ihatemyskin]

LOL RX lost AGAIN against Chinta BADLY in SBO6, actually RX, KO and Nuki, his team got OCVed by Chinta, man he rocks!!! :)

[PapaLeGrand]

ouch

[mastadev]

body*

[keysonyanosmilanos]

Good Uploads.

[greyoldfellow]

[damienjeffgomez]

[Cretos112]

[Cretos112]

[Cretos112]

So train more with <our lag and then you can come to Tokio.And i watched you replys and you really suck .Its a shame that you wana challenge me .

[Pilgrimage85]

Tokyo. LOL @ you, doubt you are even from Asia, just sit down and watch people play at a level you can never get to.

[omnivii]

Haha being japanese makes you good? I've crushed several japanese people in this game.

[sowutifmahsnsux]

i never paid much attention to chinta's ken - then the guy gets to sbo6 finals ocving KO RX NUKI along the way, sheesh

[shadowghostra]

damn that was intense.......

[just6822]

Crazy last round hahaha

[sozaro]

LOL@prestomoltoagitato you couldnt of said it better bro

[prestomoltoagitato]

lol uriens blocking sounds like a wrench hitting titanium.

[Stont]

well he is made out of metal..

[prestomoltoagitato]

no doubt no doubt.

[mastadev]

ive read somewhere that when urien tenses up (blocks) his boy goes very hard like metal

[elfirrepins]

lol boy goes very hard. Anyways, yes, when he blocks it makes a unique metal sound. Because he is comprised of the elements of Metal and Thunder, whereas his brother, Gill, is comprised of Fire and Ice.

[MKDThug]

Wow I've never even noticed that. Good observation. I'm surprised I've played SF3 for so long and watched so many Urien vids and haven't even noticed that the blocking sound is different.

[Yurioh]

Extremely well played Ken. RX is one of my favorites players but oh well you can't all the time.

[AstroboyWunder]

Surprisingly, RX didn't use his Reflector traps in spots when he usually would. That Ken was too much for him.

[EmperorElliott]

Man, RX got the shit poked outta him round 1.

[elfirrepins]

KA! KA! KA!

[ZathainSicarius]

Ah... so neat seeing my favorite character being used so well... If only I could actually do anything near as good as that. :D

[addicttoyou]

Extreme offensive Ken good game =)

[ger3rdstrike]

very nice match!

[cable03]

Great Match. RX had some crazy parrying going on there. LOL.

[dominiward]

HAHA this was not RX.

[JED707]

geezus...

[YuenYun]

AW lol man, that was a mean ken right there

[deathwish475]

i like this fight better. RX had no time to run and wait for an openning. he was forced to fight.

[bm717252]

The Ken player has strong offense.

[bm717252]

Sick parrying by RX.

[shinre7]

Nice finish from Chinta. If I were Rx I would've thrown over a Long aegis and followed behind.

[Faust671]

its aobut time he won, RX had 6 win streak

[RaishinX]

Woo! Check out that finish.And MAN that Ken is aggressive.
