SFIIII: 3rd Strike - Babanpaku 2008

[MrQuife]

1:57 was the sickest things I've ever seen done in 3rd Strike! Perry, to an upper, to a super, though a fireball, WOW IS ALL THAT CAN BE SAID AT THAT MOMENT!!!!

[KingKnucks]

Tech shoryu xx shinpu through EX fireball made my pants tight.

[mindahl]

Deshiken didn't play very well here.

[9fuckin11]

q matches were so boring

[mindahl]

what are you talking about that Ken game was great. The Ken player played brilliantly.

[greatestorangefan]

@9fuckin11 thats because the ken camped. and the Q wasnt that good

[RyukendenY]

1:19 is where Hirai could win whole match.

[akmv1]

wow that was a nice finish

[damienjeffgomez]

daigo moment at the end

[zapikachu]

@damienjeffgomez Actgually a vast majority of japanese players can parry super very well. Daigo was just one player that was recorded. In Japan, parrying supers is something expected, not something really hype as the US makes it. probably why we're so behind.

[jdshsb]

04:23 -- Momochi's combo on Ken is truely unbelievable.

[damienjeffgomez]

Deshiken is fucking sick with parrys but the other guy did good to if he didn't fuck it up on 1:19

[muffinluveruuu]

Street Fighter IV sucks

[ArmenianAssassin]

I gotta agree with you, SFIV is definitely a HUGE step down from third strike but remember...it took Capcom 3 tries to make SF3 what it is today. They will re-release SF4 till its perfect.

[ShapeDoppelganger]

I think that Third Strike is one of the greatest 2d fighting game ever, but it have some serious flaws, as you can see in the fact that there is a goddly tier list. Where middle tier have a winning rate if 10 wins and the goddly of 30 wins.

My only hope on street IV is that the characters to be more balanced, from what I've seen till now, everyone seens quite even.

[StreetFighterUAE]

SF4 isn't that easy also, there is a plenty of great-easy fighters. but as a viper player i have fun learning her! just like urien in SF3.

[bowlofwater]

dude who producing the game wants it to be different from 3s, he said 3s was too hard to play...

[vasaznion13]

1:58 is so crazy lol

[ArmenianAssassin]

well...I hate Ken players in general. It seems like the only thing they do is wait for a dash in from the opponent to do low forward>shippu. I fucking HATE ken players like that.

[ch4p2]

cry about it

[ArmenianAssassin]

why dont you suck my dick first

[ch4p2]

nice, grow the fuck up

[bowlofwater]

then dont dash?

[DAZ3s]

Wath is the names of the players?

[SELGX]

which one is nuki

[Sf3lp]

the chun li that was raping the other one and taunted like a THUG right in his face lol

Nuki is too good haha

[RHayabusa]

What a boring ass Q versus ken match! Was the ken a turtler and so the Q in turn tried to build meter?

[Flowend]

Never noticed how much KSK jumps, shiiiiiiiit.

[thekingoflosing]

i shitted my pants

[yummychick3ns]

Hirai @ 1:57 WOW nice counter!!!!

[komot]

last match, last round was probably the highlight of the whole video.

[HmongYou2Tube]

I wanna see some Makoto.

[Elite31010]

Good Shit!!

[Huldaah]

Great Stuff, special props to Deshiken and Tokido. Awesome shit...

And uuhhh, YES KEN DOMINATES as he should and all others chars deserve to burn in his flaming fist!

ps: Not Really...

[WxxExxS]

KSK [AL]

Tokido [CH]

Keeper [KE]

vs.

Deshiken [KE]

Suzu [CH]

Tetsugoshi [Q]

Hirai (KE) vs. DeshikenKFG (KE)

Rikimaru (CH) vs. Nuki (CH)

DeshikenKFG (KE) vs. Momochi (YU)

[g1mpy]

yes to 1 and looks like yes to 2

[insomnotek]

6:02-6:05

as ken (is it deshiken?) flip recovers in the air and lands on his feet, it looks like he does a kara throw right when he lands.

ken kara throw?! dude is beastly if he pulls that out in that situation.

[wally1202]

Well nothing impressive about technically parrying that SA but damn under such pressure ^^ (almost none health) that's a great job from Tokido right here :P

And Momochi coming up with that new combo at 04:20, just makes me happy how people still manage to find out new stuff about this game :D

[Zer0zUnLtd]

10:42=great

[ArmenianAssassin]

not really.

[Zer0zUnLtd]

let's see you pull that kara shoryuken

[ArmenianAssassin]

lmao.... You dont have to kara the second shoryuken against Q, just do it normally. So yeah...all of a sudden it goes from great to just plain GAY. Lets see how great it is when you play as Q and have any noob Ken just double shoryuken your ass anywhere on the screen.

[Zer0zUnLtd]

how bout hugo

[HmongYou2Tube]

Hey aren't you the guy who hates that one Ken player at Family Fun Arcade?

[ArmenianAssassin]

what? i dont have anyone...except 5 star.

[justcallmevinny]

all these Youtube comments make me laugh. oh you guys...

KSK! KSK! KSK!

[SHIMRYU]

cool

[dtl2005]

awesome combo at 4:22

[nkarul]

the last part (Chun-Li VS Ken)...

very best blocking from chun li and strike for win..... impressive skill.... Congratz

[des9206]

Whats with the giant fear of the Death of 3S?

[HmongYou2Tube]

Never seen that. 4:21 - 4:24

[bodler]

ofcourse not ur not from japan

[snoopolion]

Very nice matches!!!

thx Shend

[jlysvoll]

4:20 never seen that combo before, nice one.

Thanks shend!

[destroytheevilpower]

usually only see it in sa3 or on the opponent's jump-in. never seen it done like that. pretty sweet.

[adryanv]

Watching all these top tiers go at it kinda kills the entertainment value.

[UnknownEnemy]

10 years is a good stretch for a game. There's still going to be people playing 3s just cause that's going to be their only game. Personally, I'm tired of 3s as well.

[joellera]

Top 5 for 3rd strike at Evolution 2008 was all chun-li's:

1st - Nuki

2nd - Justin Wong

3rd - Amir

4th - Tokido

5th - JR/Fubarduck

I think it's time for SF4 =)

[crbb0]

Heh yeah it's kind of sad.. they need a 3v3 tourney if they're going to keep 3S.

It's still my favourite fighter though :)

[fobwithacause]

JR plays Akuma

[destroya333]

Hirai had that.

[ShardZERO]

awesome stuff. Guessing this was best bouts from a 3on3 tourney?

[4y3paragon]

the first combo of the vid is the sickest one.

[furyboy38109]

Hirai should've won that match!!! Deshiken = Overated, he still pwns though don't get me wrong, I just don't think he's what everyone thinks he is

[RaishinX]

Well, people think he's great, and that's true so... It's probably just that people don't realize how good Hirai is. If not for that ridiculous brain fart that even people here probably wouldn't get caught dead doing the match would've clearly been hirai's two rounds to none.

[ArmenianAssassin]

3rd strike is not dead. We just need less Ken/Yun/Chun bullshit and more of the other characters. I main Urien but I also play Ryu, Hugo, and Q. I believe Q is an untapped character and SAII Ryu has TONS of potential. I suck with everyone else though xD

[ai2006b]

No offense to you TheShend, I love that you bother uploading all these videos for all of us and everyone loves it..

But damn, its getting worse and worse. Maybe 3rd strike is better off dying after all if thats all it is.

[treflip063]

the ending of the vid was just nasty lol i rarely see ppl tech kens special like that, massive skillz

[RajmanHDTV]

To be honest parrying Ken's Shippu isnt that hard....not that difficult to red parry it too, but yehh it was awesome at the end, especially when you have like 0% health and cant afford a mistake!

[Alonsoiidx]

In order:

Hirai(KE) vs Deshiken(KE)

Rikimaru(CH) vs Nuki(CH)

Deshiken(KE) vs Momochi(YU)

KSK(AL) vs ?(Q)

Keeper(KE) vs ?(Q)

Tokido(CH) vs Suzu(CH)

Tokido(CH) vs Deshiken(KE)

I'm not sure who the Q is.

[Alonsoiidx]

I missed one.

before Tokido(CH) vs Suzu(CH)is

Keeper(KE) vs Suzu(CH)

Sorry.

[gazpalmer]

tetsu 鉄

[biggpooch]

Can you please translate the players names if its cool.

[jinlo21]

wow i watched the last 10 secs like 20x in a row. that ending was fucking sick. they should clip that out and put up against that diago one.

[SlyCopper23]

yes a Q player!!! Low tier FTW

[SELGX]

thats the main problem of Q VS KEN, you can perform perform the double shoryuken without the kara at anywhere of the stage

[shawnjai]

I only see yun/ken/chun in the 1st 5 mins and i already stopped watching. LOL

[assman983]

i dont play alot so i m wondering why is ken chosen more than ryu, origional street fighter 2, brand loyalty i guess

[SayaSP]

In Third Strike Ken is picked more because the general consensus is that Ken is better.

[jamiany]

Finally, an upload! Thanks for this one. This is freaking crazy...

[PuckyTucky]

Ridiculous ending. =)

[qwasdninja]

Its sad that 3S have been watered down to chun/yun/ken in higher level play. Maby im wrong, but they seem extremely dominant.

[Shady424]

Youre not wrong...

[derekmok]

Mostly Chun-Li and Yun, who have almost no weaknesses.

[Shady424]

Yun has bad stamina. You wouldnt know with all these Genei-Jin scrubs who can't fight without it.

**is a SAII Yun user**

[katsuranomaly]

The only scrubs are the ones who intentionally refuse to fully tap their character's potential for the sole reason of being 'indie'.

[Shady424]

So I'm a scrub for not using Genei Jin? Oh I can use it, it's just that I personally feel that Yun can go without it. A lot of SAIII players I've seen use that as their only offense and suck without it. I know there's good players who use Genei Jin, but I'm saying the mass majority from what I've seen is like that.

[Cervantes838]

1.58 was nuts

[jamiany]

Hahaha yeah, but so was the very ending.

[ribbon98]

too many chuns and kens D:

[gaiko185]

waoooouuuuuuuuhhh excellent

[921144666]

nice.....
