SFIII: 3rd Strike - Cooperation Cup Ranking Battle 2010 [Stage 7]

[ArmenianAssassin]

17:10 is freaking brilliant

[dogon80]

that elena playa was baaaaaad...

[RaishinX]

I wonder if ppl realize that there are other ppl who play Elena well other than the recently discovered K.O

Miiakisuki, Azuma, Ikego, Aroha/Aloha, CASA, etc. It's one thing if you've never seen it but some ppl clearly aren't looking.

[Br34kC0r3]

the nuki's comeback in 15:38 is awesome.

[TheRyad]

love it how MOV got owned last round

[voutespancar]

Talbain should seek help with KO on how to play Elena

[heartlesswizard]

Glad that you got to meet those guys, but I believe Ken I is the best Mak player in the US. I'm not surprised that Arlieth is cool; he displayed a good sense of humor on the old Denjin Video ranbats and podcasts.

[CelesAura]

OMG Nuki is as sharp as a knife. His reactions are totally on point.

[ArmenianAssassin]

oh and LMAO at the people thumbing me down for something that Issei actually said. Here is the video: /watch?v=ojXlclDyiEc. It's about halfway through

[justcallmevinny]

Continued from last reply-

Pyrolee is really nice and dope, we hang out a lot at Denjin arcade (which was where the Sunroute event took place). Everyone thinks 5Star is a cocky asshole, when hes really more humble than 90% of american 3s players, he knows where he stands. but i agree with him that all these American scrubs have too much pride and it stops them from progressing. He is a dick because he speaks the truth in a really harsh manner, but he is my teacher as well.

[ArmenianAssassin]

@justcallmevinny Pyrolee still plays at 3s at denjin? Damn why didn't I hear about MOV coming to the states =/ I would've driven the 60 miles it takes me to get there just to watch him play. Any event like that in the future? How badly was MOV destroying other players? What makes him so good?

[justcallmevinny]

@Armenian, yeah Pyrolee came back a good amount of months ago, and he never lost any of his skill. you should check the DenjinArcade youtube channel you can see some of the videos they posted (unfortunately they havent posted all of them yet) but it was a major hype even im surprised you didnt hear about it on srk or the youtube video they made for it. MOV could have beat anyone he wanted with whoever he chose, other than say pyro and yi (and he said me but he is too nice and a liar).

[justcallmevinny]

-Continued from last reply-

Mov said he wasn't impressed by anyone in the states, however he said Yi was "very clever" and he said the only time he played seriously was against me or yi or pyro, and other than that he would use other players to show people interested certain option selects, and some things that are so simple yet i had no clue existed, it just blew my mind how fucking sick he is, can't explain it any more than that.

[dkblade27]

5Star is mad cool. hes my sensei in 3s.

[ArmenianAssassin]

lmao at theshend deleting my comment about justin wong. Open your fucking eyes. That guy will spit in your face, he has no respect. If he taunts the likes of Nuki and Kuroda, what kind of respect you think he'll show you?

[TheShend]

@ArmenianAssassin - I haven't deleting anything boss.

[ArmenianAssassin]

@TheShend alright.  Thanks for the vids, keep them coming.

[chainedsword]

@ArmenianAssassin your comment is still there man lol. the one where u called him a punk ass bitch? take a look at highest rated comments haha

[6Diego1Diego9]

lol spinning habable ftw

[VGMuziksngames]

nuki needs to switch to ken. his ken was sharp as hell

[Zero829]

I like how the first half of the video just reinforces how overpowered the top three characters are....

[VGMuziksngames]

14:48 Broken character

[IziD07]

Cheers Shend I enjoyed this little snippet

[itzjordaNN]

18:10 MOV got robbed, super didn't come out, he should have won. lol

[PuckyTucky]

That last round was awe inspiring by Nuki.

[RustyRagnarok]

All those years playing chun has made nuki a hit confirm master.....every time he throws out a short or a punch he'll super right after and make it look easy. DAMN

[SEijITheRIppER]

mov vs nuki match made my day worth while, there aint nothing like a good old classic ken battle to round off the day, along with my cup of chai this has far been my highlight of the weekend

[lunic236236]

whoa wait Raou coming out coz Seth calling out on him being not even at top 20 ?

[ArmenianAssassin]

lmao jwong is a punk ass bitch. You guys seriously need to stop bringing him up. Like those two guys who asked Issei who's better, Kuroda or Jwong? What a joke. Just admit it, US players are far inferior to the Japanese, ALL OF US

[katsuranomaly]

Got trolled hard.

[justcallmevinny]

lol if thats true thats fucking pathetic. are you kidding? Jwong may be strong here in America but he isn't even on the right path in 3s, i wish he would just stick to 4 and leave 3s alone. Japanese players even said that they think Jwong is garbage. and when MOV came to america a few weeks ago he wasn't impressed by anyone, 90% of America isn't even looking in the right direction when it comes to 3s

[ArmenianAssassin]

@justcallmevinny yeah you can find the vid here on youtube. A couple guys are speaking to Issei and they ask him "who's better, Kuroda or Jwong?" Issei was so dumbfounded by the question, he just sort of stuttered and said Kuroda, with a slight laugh. He was probably thinking "wtf was I just asked?"

[justcallmevinny]

that's really funny. I don't understand how some players can have so much pride for the American scene. we are all trash. During Sunroute Cup i was playing next to MOV and everytime he beat someone he would lean over and point at the screen saying, "garbage." i honestly felt bad that he had to play some of the players he did.

[RHayabusa]

@justcallmevinny MOV doesn't sound good - he just sounds like a total jerk...

[justcallmevinny]

@RH he is far from a jerk, he loved coming out and playing and trying to teach american players to get better. he was normally joking around and really helpful, but he would get annoyed by playing some of the players. face it, its annoying being two steps ahead when your opponent is 3 steps behind...

[6Diego1Diego9]

@justcallmevinny

We have no fucking scene here and no fucking arcades left. We could be just as good but nobody cares. Wanna go meet up at nickel city ?

[justcallmevinny]

thats in san diego right? i think i went to go over to nickel city a few years ago, i thought i went to the wrong one because it was in a mall with no one there and 50cent 3s with broken american sticks, lol. either way i couldnt make it to san diego any time soon do to school

[ArmenianAssassin]

@justcallmevinny Sunroute? I've never heard of that tourney. Im dying to play against some japanese players, I want to learn some of their tricks. I'm not the greatest but I can hold my own against some of the best, including the best Makoto in the U.S. (Arlieth). Arlieth is actually a kick ass dude. 5star is a prick though.  Pyrolee is alright...

[ArmenianAssassin]

@justcallmevinny yeah here's the vid: /watch?v=ojXlclDyiEc. Its about 1:40 in. Watch for Issei's reaction

[justcallmevinny]

haha sorry for the late reply. that video is hella funny. im pretty sure if someone said that to me i would be too shocked to say anything for a while lol. Ken I is definitely the best Makoto, sorry to say your hero Arlieth has never been stronger than him and he also stopped playing seriously long ago. this is going to need two replies lol. Arlieth aka Tom is really nice and funny and Ken I aka Sextaro is really funny and cool as well, just a freak. Pyrolee is really nice and dope.

[nemoooed]

I would agree that j Wong is not superior, hell even on a japanese level but him and other American players have prevailed vs the japanese players. Don't get me wrong I'm a japanese fanboy at heart but then again noone is invincible to defeat.

[kwizzeh]

@ArmenianAssassin IMO there are only quite a few US players who can actually stand up to the Japanese. Justin being one of them and Pyrolee in his prime as well. But still, Japan is still light years ahead of USA when compared.

[bh2591]

nuki is too clutch

[professorktown]

lmao Nuki AND MOV playing Ken!

[samuraikatana1]

An Elena player? Not something you see very often.

[nemoooed]

really KO's been playing Elena in the Danisen

[jusaca2]

14:48 LOL!!!!
