Mike Ross (Honda) vs. Alex Valle (Gouken)

[YungMalThaKid]

this is how u no its street fighter cuz all it takes is 1 fireball

[BaxterD]

@YungMalThaKid ???

[goodalwaysworks]

For Gouken's jumping throw toss 0:47 is there any way to deflect that if you don't have charge?

[giriisindahouse]

@goodalwaysworks nope. That move is good and always works!!

[coolero80]

he believes in fucking Mike Ross? I like Mike Ross just as much as the next guy, but I wouldn't go that far lol.

[JackTR21]

@coolero80 ...yikes

[g9ambit]

lol Did anyone else notice that Valle focus canceled that Ex-Fireball at the end right before he got hit by Honda's ultra? that was such a heads up play even though he still got hit by ultra .... good presence of mind....

[noJutsu1000]

@g9ambit he focus canceled because mike ross did the ultra and that was the closest thing to escape, but it never would have been enough. why the fuck would he focus cancel his ex fireball that shoots forward and diagonal? fireball would have covered him.

[TheSchoolWorld]

Must have been a shallow tourney if Ross was vying for first.

[lionheartSONIC21]

I'm now a converted Mike Ross believer.

[ImLikeEpic]

I BELIEVE IN FUCKING MIKE ROSS!

[ImLikeEpic]

I BELIEVE IN FUCKING MIKE ROSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cr1mSiR]

alex valle: the only player worse than mike ross

[aseq2]

Don't think i've seen this matchup before - might not ever have seen a Gouken. What's the move he does at 0:36? Some kind of throw?

[creenan]

@aseq2 It's indeed a throw, it's the slowest throw in game and deals no damage on itself, but it allows you to get pretty much any attack through - although as the enemy is airborne, you really cant combo that much into it.

[aseq2]

@creenan @aseq2 Thanks! Hehe I started the game up to try it out for myself. Gouken is awesome, although I'm too bad of a player to use him well. Nice way to land the ultra easily though!

[ANormalGuy]

Lol

Counter hit ultra me?

Right back at you!

[grassmanmatt]

Haha. Saw Ross's ultra coming. I do the same thing with my Honda because projectile users fire off when opponent near death.

[cyrax555]

"OMG... I believe in.... FUCKING mike ross"

[TheSharkPrince]

What a disgrace to Gouken. Look at how the video ends. lmao

[kodata666]

"mike ross with the EX Guantanamo Bay"

lol'd

[hmongyai]

akimo is tha best ehonda

[jokericon00]

Mike Ross is a beast! LOL.

[Leidern]

It's not random if it hits.

[IamTheMaximum]

I BELIEVE IN MIKE ROSS!

[momothebored]

lol poor alex valle.. he seems to be losing to all the kids half his age..

[72u7H]

@momothebored

Well, he's older like me. "Back in my day" we used to rock people, now padders are rocking the scene and people who never played SF until sf4 are the "new" school.

[sngoku]

u gotta BELIEVE!!!

[DannyCybar]

Yeah love that line. 1:33

"Its not random if it hits"

Mike Ross is dope with Honda. Ultra FTW!!

Good stuff!

Peace

[moe5000]

I believe!!!!!!!!!!!

[angrykoopa]

"ex guantanamo bay" HAHAHAH

he should say "ex poundcake" for the tatsu lmao

[mastadev]

nice...i knew i wasnt the only one that thought honda said guantanamo bay

[hulazero1]

LOL that shit is so clutch man. I finally got around to learning that little trick. You have to wait until honda is done with his landing animation before you can even begin to input the ultra. And to be able to pull that off in gouken's face while he busts out an ex FB shows you how crazy fast Mr. Ross's hands are. Good shit Ross, fine display!

[ataconazi]

"its not random if it hits" that wasnt random at all, he either went for jabhhs or ochio. Alex was mashing ultra. Either the jabhhs was goign to combo afterwards (mashing wouldnt matter), he was going to whiff the combo and get punished by the ultra (what happened) or was going to go for ochio and get punished by the ultra. It's a smart move

[Lupasan]

Shit i though Alex was dead lol haven heard his name in te SF scene in a while lol

[Combusted619]

He plays mostly socal these days, working on leveling up the community of socal.

Good guy though

[Combusted619]

also..

I believe in Mike Ross, after he rkelly'd me back in September

[sidechainthreats]

This video is still amazing. Mike Ross remains my hero.

[egg64]

@sidechainthreats Did you see that Ultra charge? DID YOU SEE IT?  CAUSE I SURE F'N DIDNT.....wow.

[MzTekChill]

@egg64 I seen it charge, as soon as he threw out the first headbutt he started holding back again IMMEDIATELY lol that's basic charge play though

[kenodango]

@MzTekChill Kind of a late reply, but he actually started charging before the headbutt. Charge b, f, b+p works will let the headbutt come out and you charge for a split second faster than usual which makes a whole ton of things possible.

[DrClawizdead]

@egg64 What Mike was hoping to do there (probably) was connect with the headbutt and combo into the ultra. It's textbook Honda.

[daddyshere1]

@DrClawizdead You're textbook stupid, headbutt doesn't combo into ultra.

[cyrax555]

@egg64 lol that's how you charge when you use a "charge" character... that's how guile players throw sonic booms so fast...soon as u throw one , hold back to charge for another one...

[StreetFighterJoe]

gouken got owned

[goldentrophy]

HAHAHAHA ex Guantanamo Bay lol it does sound like E.Honda says that though or isandwhica again.

[EvilBowlOfCereal]

"its not random if it hits" I got me a new catch phrase.

[LiangHuBBB]

Nice end.

[yes4me]

that ultra at the end is very smart move. It is very hard to punish the fireball of gouken, and it is also hard to for the ultra of Honda to pass fireballs... which make the last move AWESOME! 5/5

[jewelman]

even mike ross cant ex hhs loop

[steamyrobotlove]

Tiers? WTF ARE TIERS?!?!

GRATS TO MIKE ROSS!!

[Thugmunk]

I berieve in da bawss

[m360alex]

lol!! you had gouken and you didnt even use his true power. you suck Alex!! kill yourself! i would own that honda with ABEL!!!!!

[MotokoStarwind]

Alex Valle is one of the best players in America... On a side note, I like how you said that he didn't use Gouken's true power, and justify it by saying you can use a good Able.

[tubetuna]

when he noticed honda's ultra he canceled the last hadouken and he did a back dash O.o .... but did not make it.... nice reflex by valle

[nainqx]

game pauses when someone does an ultra

[tubetuna]

still .... good reflexes

[Cicada1337]

:) smart stuff

[LordEdge19]

It's not random if it's hit! Awesome xD

[pcgamerjoe]

Might be the first time I've ever seen this matchup...awesome vid!

[egg64]

Finally good to see some non-tier whoring game play.

[yogsagath]

@egg64 you should also know that thats also why he will never win an Evo XD

[alnaga991]

omg

[Fisherington]

Not random if it hits.

[mrskemar]

BAWSE

[MotherRat]

wow

[sngoku]

Da Boss Mike ROSS!!!!!!
