[dkblade27]

24:15

Boss didnt learn his lesson O_O

[CopyingNinjaKakashi]

RX always impresses me.

[spoutman]

RX Is a God and i will worship him...

[caiorenner88]

2 things that are rare to see in a RX fight happen in the first match:

he misses the lk tackle timing on a juggle and he uses EX tackle.

[luc328]

It's interesting to see how RX uses crouching MP in these matches. Rare usage for mind games :]

[syan8182]

Starting from 23:11. stay in the corner biatch! Notice the power bar decreased before RX cancels the super @ 23:13

[ILOVETODANCELOL]

15:20 - 15:30

"Alright, that's cool"

[RyukendenY]

Check these out: 6:07 6:43 8:04 9:59 4:05 5:18 15:18 23:12 24:19 26:50

[crunchsixfoe]

never knew nuki's ken was that crazy

[6Diego1Diego9]

why doesnt boss go for the shun goku satsu when he has the chance??

[dkblade27]

hahaha holy shit rx was dominating!

probably the most entertaining set of matches ive watched since kuroda vs ino

the other 2 players were good too though but RX was astounding with those aegis setups.

[dkblade27]

when people said 15:20 was the most amazing 100% combo theyve seen, i had a feeling i knew exactly which combo it was going to be when i saw akuma vs rx lol

[ADdadirector]

Does the PC version have online play as well

[990rare]

15:18 lol 100% combo

[treflip063]

that akuma has to be kuroda

[itzjordaNN]

lol boss plays gouki nothing like kuroda. :P

[strafer]

I think it's supposed to be boss.

[skills2gunz]

Am I the only one with the video freeze problem at 3:22?

[somanysomanycookies]

i had a bunch throughout the vid, i just refreshed and it worked.

[skills2gunz]

@somanysomanycookies I refreshed the vid multiple time and it still happens.

[ArmenianAssassin]

your computer cannot handle the awesomeness that is RX

[7eventhSamurai]

15:20-15:29 was the most amazing thing I've ever seen in a 3s match. That was just nuts.

[gekkomt]

@ 19:06 which direction does RX charge for his tackle? RX = the best btw

[MomentsReprive]

15:20 - 15:35 was amazing lol

[Iceman2890]

I never understood why more players didnt taunt after landing a super. obviously not everybody has an incredibly beneficial taunt like q or a useful taunt like dudley, but there are still benefits to be had. And while some may consider it "unsportsmanlike", they can also be beneficial in some mindgames, and possibly cause your opponent to slip up. plus, i find they always spice up a match. but thats just my take. can anybody give any more insight into this?

[strafer]

Even if the taunt gives damage bonuses, defense bonuses etc., the time frame used to do it can decrease or take away time for mixup opportunities. Some of the taunts it's not even work the bonuses especially when it hinders rushdown.

Dudley's is only useful in the corner for mixups. No one does it for the damage bonus.

[Iceman2890]

Thanks for clearing that up. Yea i realize dudley's taunt is usually only used on wakeup, but what about characters who's taunt is very benficial, like hugo? Doesnt his taunt also increase his stamina? Or does it also hinder his rushdown?

[strafer]

It's a toss up. Most good Hugo's would rather use the time to get in close than for the little increase in defene. Plus the taunt is slow and requires 4 of them to get the max benefits. I play Hugo and don't bother with it and when I see other Hugo's doing it I can machine go blow them out of it.

Necro and Akuma's are worth doing so I don't get why more players don't do it. Q is a must as he is near worthless without the powered up defense.

[onreload]

Akuma's is a bit slow IMO and he's best with a lot of pressure...I think Necro's taunt is only very safe after a dizzy...as for Hugo's defensive taunt, I do it when some players are trying to build meter from full screen. They usually come to me then, either because they know I'm gaining stamina, or because they think it's me egging them on.

[strafer]

There is a full list of the taunt stats for every character online somewhere. Hugo's short taunt is defense increase, the long one is damage increase. He gets around 35% defense increase from 4 taunts.

[furyboy38109]

Nothing like a demotion match to hype him back up

[somanysomanycookies]

27:00 woulda been fucked up/hilarious if boss' sa1 reflected back at him.

[somanysomanycookies]

lmao @ that boss taunt to ken.

[ArmenianAssassin]

this is easily the greatest urien raping ive ever seen. RX warmed up and started raping like mad.

[brozors]

that punching bag combo at 11:43 was sick

[ArmenianAssassin]

glad to see he's using the EX headbutt>mp fireball>tackle combo so often. It does amazing damage (49 points on ken) and it sets u up for the aegis setup. I use it all the time myself.

[a1zhang]

RX!!!!

insane moments

[6Diego1Diego9]

can someone also tell me what akuma player that was? the character reference page for Japanese names isn't loading in my browser

[a1zhang]

akuma player = BOSS

[6Diego1Diego9]

RX and his little mirror tricks....

[ADdadirector]

Is there  SF3 for the current Gen consoles?

[hinduleech]

Stick to IV son

[moonlitearthx14]

PC :V

[AsdTom]

RX = God

[WIIboxing]

Is that ken Chinta?

[hinduleech]

nuki

[dta333]

Are these a recent matches ?!! Cause i wonder why there no RX videos in SF4 !!!!

[snoopolion]

because he doesnt play sf4!

[dta333]

I see , thanx for the info , and i don`t see what the point for thumping down on my last comment , it`s wasn`t offend to anyone ..

[skullkid50]

SF4 dont deserve to be played by RX.

[ADdadirector]

....this is SF3 thoh....

[CopyingNinjaKakashi]

because sf4 is nowhere as good as 3rdS! Fixed.

[somanysomanycookies]

can i get an amen?!?!

[guambombboy]

Holy shit at 15:20.

[skullkid50]

10 seconds

[Atomicore]

God, that is just.. upsetting.

[okutabareo]

Man, RX killed the Akuma in less than 10 seconds. Goodness.

[robwest92]

Wow. RX reinvented.

[derekmok]

RX actually did up his game. He has more Aegis setups now, and he's improved his mobility, making him harder to catch. 1:30 is just plain smart, withholding the crouching fierce so he can maximize the pre-existing Aegis to finish off Gouki.

[Berserkhater]

That was a pure genius move. I have even more respect for RX now.

But seriously all 3 players in this video are great. They nearly don't make execution mistakes, and their battles are full of mindgames and godlike reading.

[theaznfishy]

This must be 10th dan. RX = strongest.

[Shintroy]

RX Returns 12:00
