Great matches. Wow they are both very skilled but Uryo just seemed to be one step ahead by the time it got to the last match. Ive never seen Uryo miss an ULT before though. Usually hes super clutch at throwing in Vipers ULT to take the upperhand like he did in this series. Shiro is a badass Abel though. I havent seen too many Abels that could match up to that.
wow shiro droppped his ULT combo 2 times in a row? @ 3:30 - 3:40 never seen him doing this kind of mistake b4. He's such a beast abel sad to see him lose early in the tournament. Uryo is a beast at Viper too tho.

WTH, in the very end Shiro had the chance to perform the Ultra...Otherwise, great, absolutely perfect zoning from both of them.The difference between zoning and turtling is little, a tiny border, but it exists.For example, worlds best player, so to speak, Daigo, is just an overrated turtle-we have seen him pwned many times by Itabashi and Shiro.
@FIxt00l Its kinda hard to land an ultra in such a situation like that, you would be caught up with defending yourself, not doing a random ultra and hope for the best.
Abel's ultra is harder than its look. You have to input accurately while the opponent curls up in the air in the right position. I saw he missed the ultra many times and I guess that's make he hesitate to do that. This is obviously his weakness.
there is a loud ass guy yelling shit in your ear in japanese over a loud speaker getting louder and louder with everything you do or don't do. Needless to say he just randomly went into auto-pilot and didn't think to ultra. I'm sure he was kicking himself afterwards.
he also could have punished a hard knuckle whiff a few seconds earlier with either a special or an ultra combo but didn't. it happens to even the best of them. n he had mixed two huge chances mere seconds before. so.. stress
You have to super jump cancel the ex seismo before you fadc. So ex seismo, then hit down, up, then focus and dash forward. Just have to time it correctly to not use meter. It's not hard if you practice it.
Man I love watching Shiro and think he is amazing, but he messes up on his decision making quite often. Man needs to fall in love with his ultra setups because he would have won 3 times as many matches if he would finish people.
Is it just me or could Shiro have won both of those first two rounds? The first one he could have won by doing an EX wheel kick instead of a regular, and the second by doing his Ultra when he elbow launched.
Now that I think about it, is that Japanese guy shouting over their shoulders, or can the players themselves not hear him? Because that could get seriously annoying. OH MY GOODDDDDDDD HE SAW IT COMING! WHAT FORESIGHT!!!!!! OHHH ITS ALL URYO'S PACE NOW!
I dont know why he didn't elbow to ultra in the first round. He would have had enough frames and spacing to make sure it connected. It's not like he elbowed her into the corner, which makes the timing extremely difficult.
I've seen him miss that ultra juggle a bunch of times before too, and that was equally disappointing. In the heat of the moment he probably didn't want to risk it... who knows. I feel like in a lot of these "pro" matches there are opportunities for the players to bust out a full ultra on a missed shoryu or something but instead opt for a less damaging combo. /shrug
In fact, it's not because they are banned that Seth and Gouken aren't unlocked. The reason you can see every character except them is because the tournament was not on arcade and players like Momochi and Todoki use Gouki. They had to unlock him.
1:31. Super jump cancel EX hammer, Then dash cancel your super jump. I find that so difficult to pull off during competitive play. Uryo makes it look easy. Viper is soooooooooo deep compared to the other characters!
Yeah... mix up wise. But usage wise he's no where near Viper. No one will take longer to learn. He can't cancel moves without bars like her. He can't super jump cancel normals to hit confirm ultras like her neither. And there's more! But yeah he is pretty deep. Just that Viper takes it to a whole new level!
Shiro is the ROLL master. No Abel player uses the roll to perfection the way he does. Even when he loses, he's implemented the roll several times in perfect spacing.
ps. This announcer cracks me up to no end. I have no clue what he's saying, but he's so quiet until something big happens, and then he freaks out o_O!
wow this is the like the 3rd tournament match i've seen from shrio where he doesn't use a single ultra, despite having many opportunities ... is he just on an ultra strike?
Yeah - no idea what was happening there. Shiro didn't use a single Ultra in the match and usually he is quite the master of setting them up - hell, he even DID use Ultra setups here but in the end didn't choose to Ultra for whatever reason, especially since there were no signs of a whiff... Strange, very strange.
we all must bow down to uryo...the viper god!! XD
