Ed Ma vs John Choi Evo 2009

[anyadat123123]

Aww, O. Sagat should be in SSF4 and John should own with it!

[rtc7788]

god damn you're ugly

[suneel7]

'ed ma' at the end lmao!

[dragonfist08]

haha commentator: "ooohhh never try to cross up john choi". what an idiot - get your facts right before you voice anything. choi is a good player but it's so OBVIOUS that was a missed ultra.

[cadoras99]

the iphone does not a capable video recorder make. unwatchable.

[Paxinn]

who´s the guy screaming like "aye, aye,aye"! every time EDMA performed a combo. funny as hell

[phantomny]

that skinny asian kids O face at the end is the most amazing thing I've ever seen.

[mloclam7]

ugh that sucks

[baioken]

thats why big tournaments should be on arcade... i mean this is ridiculous, and some whacky console stuff happens all the time in EVO. I also cant understand how they can play comfortable while sitting on the floor

[Fagachinko]

whine more...

[steway]

and what are you going to say to the people who play console characters?

[VYP3R22]

i totaly agree, the comfort SUK bigtime, and those console are unstable, i mean get real, how u press menu when u have the punch buttons on it, and menu on the other SIDE ffs, console suk balls xD

[Zendarus]

@baioken because thats how they play at home with their sticks

[baioken]

@Zendarus

yeah, its just another style of playing, but I could never play like that, always have my stick on the lap

[TheGosu]

@baioken Provides good posture too.

[pilchtastic]

lol wasn't expecting that at the end :D

[SFpurphaze]

well theres no way of knowing if someone paused on purpose or not and there not gunna go do instant replay to c what actually happened so the easiest and most logical thing to do is make tha tperson lose the round.. not the whole set just that round thats fair.. if he has a problem with that then he should have sat closer cuz apperantly what happend was his cord unplugged from the system

[Udermench]

If you aks me EdMa deserved the victory. Choi spacing game is a bit boring. Even a Sagat who Spams projectiles is more entertaining. You think Choi would mix it up a lil but he just kept doin the same shit. Ed hit the Demon twice in 1 set. Thats risky. he absorbed a lot of hits & still tried to mix it up.

[umdum08]

Well you see Daigo spam fireballs all day to in alot of his matches, yet his oponents are far more entertaining.... that doesn't give his opnents the win.

[Scarabus82]

Please write the players names in the order they appear in the video.

[blitzkrieg861]

Please learn who the top players play as.

[Scarabus82]

Sure you and I know that, but for the sake of everyone else. It's a good convension to follow, don't you think?

[Dohzr]

seth killan needs to shut the fuck up for a few seconds to let the other commentators talk for bit too.

[TehPeaches]

Maybe he would if the other commentators weren't awful.

[Obioma1]

Choi's got such an old school Ryu in Sf4. It's amazing how the ST strategy still works.

[th3major]

That rule evo had for the pausing was dum ass shit... how you going to punish someone if their controller dies (in SC4) or if the plug comes out or somthing... only way they should be punished is if they actually ment to pause... which would of been noticable.

I feel bad for choi because if he won that round, who knows what happens next... just sad that i seen that happen so much on live stream alone, cant image how much it happend at other stations

[SkinnyBoyChrissssss]

yeh i agree with you kuz it this happend to me while i was playing with my friends so if it happend to me in a tourney i woulda been pissed and i was using the te stick

[th3major]

ya, at a tournament of this size it is going to happen. lol, but to take a round from someone... i dont know what evo staff was thinking i hope they change this next year.

[blitzkrieg861]

What difference does it make if you're using a TE stick? A SE stick or a stick of shit could get unplugged too. Nice name drop though

[mrbastos784]

I'm pretty sure if's been a rule since Evo started using console, and I doubt it will change anytime soon.

[xXRoxasKH2Xx]

holy shit balls the last round

[PSdualwielder]

what would happen in the same situation if ed ma had less hp than choi? do they still wait for the time out but will give ed the game despite the counter saying otherwise?

[SkinnyBoyChrissssss]

uhmm haha i think it doesnt matter who has less health .... who ever pauses the game for whatever reason just looses that round haha i hope that answers ur question!

[KLVNW]

What happened at the time out?

[SkinnyBoyChrissssss]

hah uhmm they had to wait out the time kuz if they didnt want n e one gaining ex bars ... haha im pretty sure thats why

[Sakurazukamori2424]

Damn I was rootin for Choi Boy

[SkinnyBoyChrissssss]

i was rootin for ed ma 8P hahha
