evo2k3 K.O(yun) vs Daigo(ken) part1

[kshin121685]

god i hate yun players. annoying as fack! GO DAIGO!

[GodzzzSon]

Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye! Ayyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeee!

[excaliburomega]

2:39 - 2:55

[superchaotix]

how does diago do crouching middle kick into light shoryu soo easily plz respond i need to know

[dpk4]

@superchaotix It's a buffer cancel. As you're making the motion for your LP Shoryuken, you hit your crouch MK and plink your down-forward LP to cancel cr.MK as it hits.

[XxGonixXFAN]

@unkownaz Good job calling, mere boring work, to the old street fighters which were made before and are still played regularly in all nations. I have at least 5 arcades that host the famous, super street fighter 2 turbo. People are still lining up to play that.

[TheBlueAngel86]

lol at 6:22 taunt at the end of the combo and loved the audience's reaction to it, lol

[RobCardIV]

I didn't see ko reading all daigos shots. Ko won because of 45 percent combo chains lol

[RobCardIV]

Wow that might be the most elite sf video I've ever seen. Ken was reading that so well

[bloodtalon23]

Daigo came from losers bracket so he had to win two series to win tournament. Daigo clearly outmatched KO in first series, but he still needed to win one more series to win tournament. KO was from winners so he only needed to beat Daigo in only one series to win it all. Look it up Daigo lost to KO in both evo tournaments that KO participated in. Daigo will always be forever known as one of the all time greats, but i believe KO in his prime was THE greatest third strike player out there bar none.

[Argeli0n]

@bloodtalon23 I don't know WHY most of people always want to make Daigo look like "he is good but not that good", when like it or not he is simply the best SSF fighter player of ALL time!!! It is as simple as that. You don't need to look for excuses or always just looking at the times he has lost, I mean he is human, he can lose, but NOBODY can take away EVERYTHING he has done, moves that ONLY he can do, the amazing and timed reads he does, he is unique. Like it or not, he is just the best ever!

[bloodtalon23]

@Argeli0n calm down buddy, don't get so emotional. not hating on daigo at all, just stating an opinion (an opinion which i take back by the way) if you think he's the greatest, hey good for you.

[EvilShinGouki]

@bloodtalon23 i still prefer kuroda =]

[GuszagaxTheFirefox]

This match have a lots of power, is that the reason because the screen turning yellow xD

[ExBrutalion]

6:22=Taunting at its finest

[ozzyo602]

@ExBrutalion KO=Dan.

[tak04]

ウメハラにしてはつよい

[EBCX]

well parry was a really addition to street fighter but the focus attacks are too, dont be a bitch and enjoy both games

[DVJonaTV]

The best in 3rd Strike are 1:Fujiwara, 2:RX, 3:Daigo

[QudansJr]

love this game because almost all the cheapness (im not the kind of ppl who complain about moves or chars bein OP) is removed by the parry option

parry is so great gives u the chance to win basically every match, annoyin fast recovery pokes are no more a problem, fireballs too, one of the other thing i love about 3s is the meter building with whiffed normals; it's so genius it gives the game a much faster game plan and makes the game revolves around confirmin ur super art

[kevin933]

@QudansJr

You said it best.

[butterscotchcookie]

godlike...Daigo vs K.O..

[stretchypants123]

I think daigo is the better player here just because he can figure out K.O.'s tactics better than Ryan Hart. I think this video is weighed more on Daigo.

[ilv244]

@stretchypants123 Of course Daigo played far better. Also, KO always used his special to rather save his own ass.

[KeenoMajeeno1]

i like how his brother jus stands there and watches. When I first saw that i was like is he going to help?? lol

[testtube173]

2:10 to the end of the match was pure genius.

[79978867547864536877]

I love the music in third strike especially yun's and yang's

[PriceFLCL]

@unkownaz i totaly agree makes any match whith an character a comeback chance

[Akuma31er]

K.O did a very great job daigo had to give everything to beat him and that was even close !

[TheGosu]

6:20 That is a stroke of genius. SF4/SSF4 will never have that...

[monkeypower]

@TheGosu lol you mean a super that is overpowered?

[Flintc08]

@monkeypower overpowered? i would say chun li was more op than yuns..yea its annoying to be juggled but wen u take into the amount of damage scale its not really all that bad.

[Akuma31er]

hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey hey

[heywhatsup65]

@Akuma31er agreed to take away the parry was taking 3 steps back and the supers in ssf4 are weak. The game lacks creativity, playing both games you would think 3rd strike is the latest version.

[Otahell999]

@heywhatsup65 for those who couldn't parry, they created the ultras.

yeah, i miss parry too. the greatest weapon against spammers.

[darkangelmnk]

i think 3rd strike is one the best street fighter games

[DoubleAsian616]

I'll admit, Daigo had a great winning streak at first. but I BELIEVE, he got cocky a bit, that's when he started to slip up. If you notice throughout the fight. He combos into his Shippu Jinrai ALOT with a low medium and straight into it. KO I believe saw this and used it to his advantage. If you notice through this video KO does manage to make a comeback. Until Daigo unleashed the beast.

[Stevie924011]

Can somebody explain this... I counted 4 wins for Daigo in this clip, but how come at the end the announcer said Game Three Daigo?

[XxGonixXFAN]

@Stevie924011 Ya no kidding, I think they fucked up. Daigo already won and they kept it going! Yun got like 2 - 3 wins!

[ilv244]

@Stevie924011 The entire thing is edited. I checked this out long ago. There are other mistakes as well. What you're looking at isn't the entire thing.

[polarity55]

@Stevie924011 3rd game of the second set after daigo won the first set

[dayoneatom]

(The last round) Rare footage of Daigo actually being angry.....

[TehPwnage1337h4x0rz]

@unkownaz It certainly is not perfect. The balancing in that game was less than impressive.

[Gah1231]

Why even bother with spam fighter 4???

[Dwakey]

SF4 isn't spammy, it's campy.

[Gah1231]

It's both, it's neither, same idea. A far to easy defensive strategy that's far to viable, and makes the game feel like work trying to get around defense instead of a focus on mind games.

[Dohzr]

3rd strike had way more oohs and aahh moments

[ACTUALLYrussell]

@Dohzr nah it's just u.s never saw players this good back then so thought it was all so gdlk

[TheUnkanny]

yes I agree with u on that stretchypants...yun is one of the hardest characters to develope. I would never to even think I would end up playing yun. I'm usually a Ryu player. Yun can be fun at times. Took me awhile to develope him. KO was my inspiration and I respect him for that.

[stretchypants123]

I think K.O. definitely has the potential to outclass Daigo with his third strike playing skills, it's just that with Daigo's skills, I just don't see how he could lose to anyone.

[frenzii3s]

daigo is ass now in 3rd strike

[Cynosurewtf]

He took 3rd at Season's Beatings. That's pretty damn good for being out of practice.

[frenzii3s]

he took 4th behind frodo justin wong and issei...and there was no comp for 3s at all for seasons beatings...ever heard of a 3s ohio scene??

[Cynosurewtf]

3rd strike is dead. This was probably the second biggest tourney in America this year, so what/where would you suggest is more competitive? Also I'm familiar with the 3s scene (if there is any "scene" remaining anywhere) in Ohio as I live in Cincinnati. The fact remains that if you say Daigo is ass at this game you are being shortsighted and stupid as he is still better than the vast majority of US players.

[frenzii3s]

If daigo were to compete in a denjin ranbat, he wouldnt win...and you are sayin vast majority of U.S players as if there are alot of good players in the U.S to begin with...

[jazzytrumpet]

@frenzii3s that is just one tournament man. in most of the others tournaments dagio has enter in, he has place 1st or 2nd in 3rd strike, but i do agree if he goes into a tournament now for 3rd strike he would most likely not do as well because the players are much stronger now. but that doesn't mean he can't win. also with 3rd strike being less popular now there would really be no point in him working so hard at a game that nobody plays as much anymore not to say there are no loyalist around.

[frenzii3s]

3rd strike is still big in japan...its less popular in the u.s because no one can win over here...and sf4...but daigo isnt even top 50 in japan in this game anymore

[jazzytrumpet]

your right about japan playing 3rd strike and daigo not be as good as he ounce was but that mean nothing to the record he has already made in the past i mean think about it if you won a few tournaments and place pretty good in others but all of a sudden you just stop playing of course you record is going to drop he might not even be near the top on other fighters he use to be good at simply because he just stop playing. thats the same for everybody.

[burzumaske20]

its less popular in America because people are too worried about boring ass games like halo and call of duty modern warfare 2.While I do appreciate fighting games still,hell I still play my sega saturn with games like street fighter alpha 1,zero 2,real bout special,and x-men vs street fighter.

[stretchypants123]

He's the best in every other SF game. :) Probably within the top 5 at least in the world with this game.

[frenzii3s]

boss, KO, Kuroda, Ino, MOV, Uni, Nuki, RX, Sugiyama, Ruu, Momochi, Shiro Itachi, Rikimaru, Kokujin, Fujiwara, Dan, Roshinikari, Nitto, Yakkun, Chinta, Saru, K, issei....jus of the top of my head...when daigo was good at 3s, he was great, but he's jus not good anymore

[stretchypants123]

Ya you mean Daigo beat all of them!! =XD Thanks for supporting me haha! Gosh dude, it's like your saying that you're better than him with your tone of voice, it's your matter of perspective saying that Daigo isn't good anymore at 3S. I think Daigo sucking at 3S is like the analogy of Bill Gates becoming poor lol. That's hilarious LOL. No disrespect though.

I mean come on, take a look at this video for example: Daigo is competing with the world's best Third Strike player and putting up a fight.

[mkkhanzohasashi]

True shit. Also Daigo on a recent interview sai that that year (2k4) he wasnt playin 3S seriously so go figure. The next year he won the SBO with Nuki as partner and against Kokujin and KO so he isnt any slouch at 3S.

[Bigman85oO]

This K.O guy is pretty damn good! O_O

Is it really difficult to pull off those combo's?

[ilovesmashbros]

How do You do that Jump-in attack combo that Daigo parried at 0:18? I'm trying to pick up yun.

[samirhossain]

hold forward and press jab and fierce

[ilovesmashbros]

THANKS BRO

[hillerysean]

i believe it is Jump-in, MP, Forward+HP

[ilovesmashbros]

thx man but i found that out a LOOOOOOOOOOOONG time ago. but i appreciate it. :)

[BlkHatJaguar]

i could tell daigo was gettin tired, it happens, KO adapted and dominated once he patterned out, theres only but so many ways to suprise your opponent with ken.

[pastyourhorizon]

DAIGO!

[wasup510]

diago raped for the most part in this video.

[Blastaar7]

uh....I don't think so. KO, was def more impressive to me. Don't get me wrong, daigo's performance was on point, but I favored KO this fight.

[raxzar]

u got thumbs down probably from scrubs that thin that to much hadoukens are unfair ....

[XESHADOWX]

Parrying really negates pretty much everything involved with Projectiles on a stand alone. the only useful tactic you said there was Denjin setups and the gou zankuu used for mix-ups. Also Ken's Ex hadouken does a knockdown as well. Even then parrying can pretty much stop fireballers on a standstill.

[XESHADOWX]

I have played 3rd strike for quite some time.. Not many people use the fireball unless its EX even then not many people go for it. Most use fireballs for super cancels and combos.

[nightbessa]

YUN so imba, in not Pros level, if your learn some combos youre GOD

[jimmeh000]

damn...daigo is ruthless

[sackyhack89]

i love yun combos makoto has some sick ones too

[dokho1981]

BEST SKILL EVER FROM UNBELIEVABLE PLAYERS!!!! i doubt to see any other skills like this in my life! they are fast like hell, unhuman

YEAH THAT's IT ... UNHUMAN

[needcollegeloan]

No. They're Japanese.

[jeraigumo]

you know I agree but it's still fun playing games, there's time for both IMO

[dkblade27]

if i spent the amount of time playing 3s working out, i would be the worlds strongest man.

[ChemistOn3]

what you just said, was fucking dumb...

[Jovanniboxer]

mmm, no kidding.

[rnbelectro]

sick shit

[Dohzr]

lol daigo barely threw a single fireball.

[datriadx18]

Fireball's are beyond pointless in 3S, because they do crap damage, and the parry system kind of defeats the purpose.

[dkblade27]

not if you are using ryu.

ryus fireballs are EXTREMELY helpful.

[Toomnyusernae]

I agree, they really made fireballs toned down but they have their uses for baiting people. Ex fireballs are a lot more useful I think you'll agree. A hadouken at point blank feels like a slap to the face now ;p

[fdaltrey]

Daigo's Ken was so fluid circa 2003-2004. It's almost as if Ken was a living human being. I think it's quite clear that he's lost this kind of natural ease and command...

[fdaltrey]

Nice move by Yun at 5:30

[ref1ex]

It's like he parried Ken's hit in the air and followed through with the shadow super.

I can't get over the amount of skill on display in this video.

反射

[bugcatcherbug]

Aw man this game looks so fun. Though I don't think I could ever become good enough to enjoy high level play like this.

[blueorange31]

if you try! just think, the two players in this video were thinking the same thing you were when they first picked up this game! now look where they are!

[suneel7]

parries for fun lol

[CtrlAltDaLEET]

5:20 NICE

[FelipeHoshi]

HEY! HEY! HEY! HEY!

KKKKKKKKKKK!! =B

[church83]

5:30 to 5:38 was epic i feel so unskilled lol

[jamiany]

It's lame shit, SF3>SF4. They should have went forward, not backwards. If I wanted to have tough gameplay where you can't make a comeback... I'd just play WoW with the RNG (Random Number Generator) against me.

[fragfestchampion]

they at least should have kept the parrying. much more skill involved with that.

[jamiany]

Yeah, df->df+punch/kick = Z motion (shoryuken motion). It's lame, messes up the motions for experienced players and gives new players the advantage.

[nainqx]

people speaking chinese in the background.

[mrwhite468]

capcom should re-release third strike on the ps3 with ONLINE PLAY.

Then SF4 would be dead.

[jamil703]

why do people always compare this crap to sf4...there realy is no comparison...sf4 wil absolutely smash thi shyt to bits!!!

[SwordXEvil]

not really, the best fighting games are 2D especially Street Fighte ones, if you dis agree then you don't know anything about good fighting games.

[jamil703]

i do know quite a bit about fighting games...so try not to talk as if you know me.

and you...or any1 else for that matter that thinks sf4 is 3d are really retarded....its 2d play...with a 3d background...

[kenn305]

thats sort of true like naruto ultimate ninja is 2d but ninja storm came out which is 3d but i still prefer ultimate ninja the ps2's not the ps3's

[GokaishuSonOfGouki]

oh.....2D Fanboy

[SwordXEvil]

in fact i'm not, i'm making a point that 2D fighting games are the best.

[GokaishuSonOfGouki]

not their not -_-

neither are

[SwordXEvil]

it is so obvious that 2D fighting games are the best that its not even arguable.

I'm only sorry for you if you think otherwise as all true fighting game players laugh as they read your comments.

[GokaishuSonOfGouki]

actually you seem to be the fanboy here with

your 2D fanboy comments.Its shows that you

take Video games way too seriously.and a fighter

gamer is a just gamer who plays Fighting games.

its obvious that games is your alternative to

reality.And when you say true fighting game players its just a fancy way of say fanboys

with no life.

[SwordXEvil]

haha telling me I have no life and calling me a "fanboy" something only people who have no life call others.

You're pretty pathetic as I'm sure I'm not spending all day looking up videos calling other people "fanboys" fiercely arguing about which dimension in games are better.

And i don't take games seriously at all - when looking at you who is about to shit his pants proving me something apparently SO IMPORTANT, lol go drink some milk kid.

[GokaishuSonOfGouki]

1.I don't spend all day looking up videos calling other people fanboys so you pretty much admitted

to doing that very thing

2. You said think your scaring me over internet XD

plus now you trying to insult me which mean what

i said was true You DO take video games and internet as an alternative to reality

[SwordXEvil]

1. I didn't call anyone fanboy here, nerdo.

2. I'm trying to insult you? Well no, everything I say is based on what you write to me - if so then I guess you can call your comments an "insult" to yourself.

And no I don't take video games and Internet as an alternative to reality.

P.S i know you're nervous when responding but don't post your comment twice and PLEASE learn how to form a sentence.

[GokaishuSonOfGouki]

Nervous of what Exactly?You?No...

I'm smarter than you.

and plus i did'nt say you called me a fanboy

[SwordXEvil]

lol smarter then me? "did'nt"

Your grammar,low life slang,not being able to build a sentence and posting the same comment twice - says otherwise.

I suggest you stop embarrassing yourself and come back to worshiping 3D fighting games that you get boners off arguing about.

[GokaishuSonOfGouki]

Hello smartass have you listened to any I'veSaid.

1.what your talking about is my spelling and writing not grammer,grammer is the way you talk

smartass.

2.Said I don't think 3D is better than 2D I Said

neither of them are better than the other.

by Dumb Smartass just hear what they want to hear huh?

[GokaishuSonOfGouki]

oh and one more smartass That you have

ADD Because you allow "Did'nt" to draw

your little mind away from the rest of the

comment.oh and

"I suggest you stop embarrassing yourself and come back to worshiping 3D fighting games that you get boners off arguing about."

Come back to worshiping 3D?

Did you mean:

I suggest you stop embarrassing yourself and GO back to worshiping 3D fighting games that you get boners off arguing about.

pretty smart dumbass

[SwordXEvil]

No its not that I didn't listen or "Did'nt" distracted me from the rest of your post, its just that the whole post was crooked, I couldn't tell shit you we're saying.

I know it's probably tough with education in.. "where-ever" you came from but at least try to leave up to normal writing standards.

Oh and please don't be a parrot, try to not borrow chunks of my comments, I believe in you.

[AscendedAzn]

Pardon me...but isn't "worshiping" spelled worshipping? If it's not, by all means make fun of me.

[GokaishuSonOfGouki]

1.I don't spend all day looking up videos calling other people fanboys so you pretty much admitted to doing that very thing

2. You said you think your scaring me over internet? XD

plus now you trying to insult me which means That what i said was true You DO use video games and internet as an alternative to reality.

[Darkscream217]

It's hilarious that you say 2D fighting games are the best, but you never back-up your reasons for doing so. I wouldn't consider 2D fighters like Mortal Kombat, Way of the Warrior, Bloodstorm, and TimeKillers to be better than Virtua Fighter, Tekken, and UFC 2009.

When you make a point, back it up with some facts, cuz I can destroy your arguments easily.

[jamiany]

No. SF4 is shit compared to SF3.

SF4's downfall:

1 step backwards (see reasons below)

No universal nullifier, instead when you commit to something, you're dead or they mess up.

Crouching light punch cancels out every move, even ultras/supers sometimes.

Focus Attacks are terrible, 2 quick attacks, multihitting, AND NOW armor breaking all ruin it

Every single move has a huge wind up and wind down (j.hp-->hp-->light tatsu-->shoryuken You actually have to predetermine beforehand WHEN to press it).

[Gamrahhh]

Read on the capcom forum, that after the re-release of MvC2 for PSN, they're deffinatly thinking of another remake.

I dont think it's gonna be like II HD remix with the graphics / balance, just online.

Rumoured though =]

[garrettshawdotcom]

meh, if they do i hope it has online lobbies etc. like SF2THDR. Because I'm sick of SF4s matchmaking. i want to have a tournament with live spectating. not only that but for now, you can just play on GGPO for your SF3:3S fix. it has really good net code so its pretty lag free most of the time.

[mrwhite468]

DUDE i am SO excited for that re-release i freaking love MvC2.

On another note, i would also like them to remake capcom vs SNK 2. That would be awesome

but anyways yeah if they re-made third strike, i wouldn't give a damn about graphics. Its all about gameplay.

[Gamrahhh]

It baffles me how CvS2 never picked up... I prefer that to Mvc2 by a long shot.

In the meantime, GGPO, 2dfighter and kaillera are the way to go. GGPO has some wicked jap players.

I hope they take their time with 3s, gives me some time to pick up a ps3 :)

[nv88]

i know ken one but that Yun was a beast man!

[RuggedHawaiian]

Yeah he was.

[sniperclown]

this is one aggressive match

[ruenis330033]

KEN PWNS DUDE!

KEN PWNS!

[CowardLoserMan]

hey hey hey hey hey hey heeey

[lapollarecord]

03:23 . u guys knowh how to do that punch ? ive tried and never discovered

[dkblade27]

jab punch, jab kick

[Munkyo99]

Actually is medium punch, medium kick

[dkblade27]

yeah my bad. jab punch and jab kick is grab lol!

youre right.

[556jared]

hold forward and press the fierce punch button.

[capnpayne]

what needs to be hi def about 3s

it looks fucking fantastic as is

[SqueeksoAo]

That, and you just know Udon would make it look horrible.

[Ancientgunz]

Has there been any SF3 matches on this level yet.

I mean im not like saying anything against any other SF3 players, but this set as a whole has to be one of the most entertaining sets i've ever seen..and im personally more of an Alex fan.

I personally think this was Daigo at his best..Other than Guilty Gear.. I haven't seen him perform much better and close to flawless in a game yet.

[xrangerx]

if daigo hadnt come out of the loser bracket to reach the finals, he would have been the winner

[dneanonkios]

damn.. schooled.

[KayinAmoh]

What's so unbelievable about this video is the realization that K.O is one of the best Yun players around(if not THE best), and there's times when Daigo Umehara just WALKS him.

Beautiful matchup, nonetheless.

[BoyBlaze2002]

Does anyone know where these tournaments take place?

[Lewman]

If this is Evo then it's Las Vegas

[BLUELINKBR]

Does anybody knows if there's a Channel or Website which cover the battles Live?

[BoyBlaze2002]

Thanx brutha.

[PitorKaz]

goes to show... when the going gets tough daigo get tougher xD

[Wildawg100]

I wish that ken still had his hurricane kick super combo in sf4.

Its a sick super combo and lethal if you combo with it.

[oneinter]

The crowd going "hey hey hey hey hey heyyy" is freaking hilarious.

[Sqiwamjon]

Feels like when Daigo loses it's coz he decided to! Like taking some time off to relax or sumthing LOL

[teknoavatar]

he's probably thinking "i'll just save my ultra bar for the next round"

[Drawtology]

I like K.O better because he plays as yun as I do

[dsteelz2007]

6:22 is classic!!!

[VoidKeeper]

is it me or the camera looses the blue at times, everything turns yellow LOL

[ashtaal]

most impressive part was the parry to immediate super by Daigo in the first round. He does some pretty risky stuff. The crouching medium kicks to heavy dps are insane, I would never take that risk, especially not twice in a row, light dp still does a lot!

[Evans5000]

Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Hey Heyyyyyyyy lmao

Their both immense players....Some crazy parrying there

[Jay0929]

how do u get a red parry

[DeeLiciouzZzZ]

Daigo beasting ! PERIOD !

[MGSF4N4TIC14]

ah this video just made my day

[cage987]

i beat daigo
