The Best of Tokido [Gouki] The Murder Face

[@dhocke]

he's the one who inspired me to make my akuma better. its not easy to keep up that pace and execution. great video thanks for making it. its like a nice quick reference guide for keeping up the vortex.

[@davidnned]

I rmbr alot of these from watching full matches of Tokido last year, great video!

[@brendan1871]

I love how Tokido's 'home' is Snowy Rail Yard, Kiryu Tsukimiya's 'home' is Old Temple, and Bullcat's 'home' is Solar Eclipse. They start to bring some more personality to the game in my opinion.

[@zuu3180]

What about Infiltration, P. champ, Daigo, and J. Wong?

[@r011ing_thunder6]

Brendan mine is the construction

[@solidbeaver]

Tokido is just crazy. He's reeeeaaally creative pulling off so much stuff

[@bluntedcorleone3628]

This video shows how much the game has evolved over the past few years. The amount of demon flips that went unpunished in this video blew my mind. Great video though, gotta love Tokido's Akuma.

[@protonjones54]

I wouldn't say unpunished, more like, unchecked. It's not like demon flip has negative frames, unless of course some idiot uses the default sweep from it.

[@SiriHakuoh]

I gladly relinquish 8 minutes out of every day of my life to come here and watch this! xD Such godliness!

[@HiddenBAH]

his combos have such a spectacular flow. most of his kills end with tatsumaki into ex shoryuken. that was some amazing gameplay.

[@Pedro_Kantor]

Good editing skills Shin, I liked the sliding.

[@TheMajestikOne]

Great video! I really enjoyed watching this.

[@joeysoamazin8]

Thank you for this. Just an excellent displaying showing what can be done if you master Akuma's vortex game.

[@Man_3336]

Watching Akuma bodying ppl is one of the most satisfying things ever

[@TheDarkhero60]

Asians make this game super fun to watch

[@TheGustavoAmerico]

They made this game :)

[@SteelShroom256]

Needs more Raging Demon.

[@QuangDTran-gb8fw]

+Warlord SteelShroom Right, when opponent got stun and low health he can ez ultimate kill. I guess he save up for another situation

[@Xrez23]

Quang Tran you an absolute shit akuma this fool is trash watch the video again and these guys are also trash most just stand instead of blocking or anything

[@illiteratethug3305]

+Hugo Want some pepper with your salt? Haha, seriously though, Tokido would fuck you up.

[@zambazzar]

Nice :) The comeback against Sagat was epic,the vortex strategies shown here definitely can help my akuma wake-up game =) thanks for uploading ShinAkuma! :-D

[@auron570]

thankyou for not doing lame transitions, music and special effects. and also thankyou for not doing a useless 1 minute intro that shows your name. Good compilation of Akuma mixup, thanks for putting this together!

[@Carefaceeeee]

More compilations of top-players pls :D And also,im really grateful for all your effort and uploads! For me as an oldschool q3 player and a ssf4 noob this is so great ,thx again :D

[@2XGodxSpeedXd]

great video and thanks you for putting in all the work to make this! I'm sure it took a while. It is much appreciated and keep um coming

[@OlympicGaming]

and well worth it too. I was seeing your page and noticed that a lot of things that are being done now you did WAY before. you're truly a legend bro. I just wished you would've continued to upload :(

[@MunkyDrag0n]

Tokido lost so many matches when he was first starting out, but he got better and better and using Akuma. He is now so good that he can pwn Hiropon the Seth god like nothing. Tokido, you are an inspiration to us all!

[@bahaanaldo]

What I love about Tokido finishing rounds is that instead of using his ultra for an easy win on stunned characters, he decides to do some combo practice. Nice.

[@nivzb18]

If i was battling Tokido the last place i want to be is on the ground. I dont think i'd be able to get back up. I love his mix up game, even the great players struggle to guess right. Great compilation vid!!

[@d3f1anc3]

Keep it up dude, these compliations are godlike.

[@Klazyo]

Hes playing is so smooth It is pleasure to see him fighting

[@Kobiyachi_]

so glad you beat sagat at the end. amazing

[@bigdavey99]

best 8 mins of my life, thanks man

[@yeaosh]

Truly inspirational and shinakuma204 was my favorite originally, but I realized how skilled Tokido really was once again.

[@caseyj789456]

great compilation ! :D thanks !

[@trysephiroth007]

This channel is what got me into Street Fighter 4.

[@JanembaJanemba]

this got featured on iplaywinner. nice job man, top notch video :D

[@Speedygi81]

Devastating combos...

[@GreanDragin]

dude the last one was sick, with the jumping down mk. hit confirm into fierce DP, Tokido is sick with it!

[@omanah]

I think I can translate, I read derp. "Your is dope bro. I'm an Akuma fan and I'm recently playing with him. Now I'm playing with your tactics and I'm winning so thanks for this vid."

[@Pabruzzese99]

" No super fancy transitions, no music, no special effects...Just the goods. :-) " Translation: I couldn't be bothered editing... Just Kidding Shin, we love your videos! thanks for making work tolerable!

[@iishyxvietxboyii1]

Now that's STREET FIGHTER!

[@dfw0jay]

Nice compilation man!

[@rflex23]

tokido needs to upload replays to renew my faith in you the latest ones i saw were ones of him getting his ass kicked

[@gamezob]

I just realized how dangerous and overpowered Gouki's vortex was.

[@wccira]

Tokidos vortex is unreal. He crosses up with the demon flip kick so well, no one can block that unless they know for certain its coming.

[@yELoHQ]

The freakin last fight + the BGM during that fight was freakin astonishing.

[@Raiden3651]

About time he got one of these. He plays BBCS, SSF4, & T6 at tourney level. Fucking inspiring.

[@tranquildestruction]

Your channel is awesome. Subscribed on the spot!

[@Paltheos]

I can't believe I never noticed this before. In the second match against ACE at 6:29, Tokido connects st. roundhouse from cr. strong. There's no way that's possible against anything except counter hit. *And* he finishes the combo. Sick.

[@0ShinAkuma0]

It can be either light punch or medium punch. The cr. light punch is a little easier to connect for me, but the range isn't as far as the cr. medium punch. The farthest range (hitbox) after a standing Hard Kick is the cr.light kick, but it's harder to connect than both cr.mp and cr.lp, so you gotta pick your spots! And thanks man, your one of the original viewers of this channel, so I try my best to reply even though I don't upload anymore. :)

[@dinitis]

I remember when this first came out. Damn, time flies!

[@JDAspect]

Amazing comeback on that last fight!

[@KeitaroHirochi]

Gouki may have a grand old time putting his godlike pressure, he's also real fragile and when you make a wrong guess, you're sure to pay dearly for it. When you make two, at this level, well... that gives us this.

[@simplelife88393]

@Nalkjn2 Thats the demon flip mixup. He can do a number of things and you basically have no choice but to guess. He can do a kick to the front of you, to the back. He can do neither and simply throw you. He could not do anything, land and then go straight into crouching jab attack. It's probably the most vicious vortex in the game.

[@123TauruZ321]

Haishi toshini! Means "Feel the humiliation of your defeat!"

[@AgelessObsession]

6:29 - He managed to see the counterhit c.MP and reacted fast enough to combo into roundhouse. Godly reflexes.

[@meu02136]

It's interesting to watch his knowledge of stun. The first two round were as good as you can possibly play with Akuma, maximized every stun combo, read the jump back, the wake-up hurricane kick. It's not a brainless, online autopilot. It's a well-oiled tank on autopilot.

[@RajmanGamingHD]

Well as far as I know, they have played 2 sets...Pikachuakuma won the 1st and Tokido won the 2nd

[@paarahful]

Great fucking match to finish up the sheer rampage that was released throughout the video.

[@5TailFox]

His cancel on that fireball is so quick you can barely notice it...Wow..

[@XNDL44]

A best of Tokido series and not a single Raging Demon.

[@UKAndrewL]

just watching Tokido's Battle points increase so much after each win :P

[@RøttenAkaGøzu]

0:16 P. DIDDY

[@Vafler86]

This clip is the holy grail for all the Akuma/Gouki players world wide.

[@MrSuperlollo]

Amazing. Thank you

[@EnterCoolNickname]

lol Tokido probably has the best nickname outta everyone in the fgc. The beast is a close second.

[@Garudanime]

awsome compilations! please do one for Sako cammy and Acqua or Iyo ibuki too

[@LoyalSol]

@Matsute He doesn't want to play the SSF4 Akuma because he is afraid it will mess up his SF4 Akuma because of the differences between the two. So he is playing Ibuki and Dhalsim in SSF4 till SBO.

[@GreeneHouseProductions]

@Tungchu92 its apart of his demon flip options.. to demon flip you input forward, down, forward, plus a kick button..(shoryuken motion with kicks..) while akuma is in the air... if you press any punch he will demon plam, if you press any kick he will dive kick... and if you press throw he will throw the opponent.. (it cant be techd)

[@TheJokzer]

Wow amazing especially the last one Those cross-ups and blocks too pro

[@Grinch_Asuka]

This is delicious! thanx shin!

[@roninIX]

Fireball mindgames (7:44) at the end was the best ending to an awesome vid!

[@rTTT4]

always delivering shin :)

[@Calcos323]

The lack of Raging Demons is disappointing, but this is a wonderful montage of a wonderful player regardless.

[@rdpowe53]

urs doppe broo im a aumkua fwn and im recently. now playin with using yur tactics and im winnin so thanks for this vid

[@ssjkiego]

i love tokido, his akuma and his sean are beast.

[@joeysoamazin8]

At 3:10 he plays the Guile player Kyotojin. He knocks him down one time with a sweep, and then proceeds to not allow him back up. Just absolutely ridiculous mix up game. I've always said that Tokido, was the reason I decided to play Akuma, and this video shows why.

[@0ShinAkuma0]

@solidbeaver .... because a sweep enables you to work the vortex...you can't quick get up from a sweep, so you're able to continue your mix-ups on the opponent that is waking up for more damage over all...as you can see, tokido is confident enough that he skips guaranteed damage like a fancier longer combo so he can continue to apply the vortex for more simple combos which equals more damage overall...only time i see tokido dp after lk tatsu is when the dp damage will win the round for him.

[@Rotostorm331]

uber playing from Tokido, not a lot of raging demons but when your this good you propbably don't need them as much.

[@wccira]

@hohihaho Because most players dont know what is coming. Take that first sagat for example, he tried to uppercut tokidos jump in and it completely whiffed. The most subtle aspect of Tokido's vortex is the impeccable zoning he uses on his opponents. So you they could AA and risk the chance of missing and then take a punish that consumes 1/2-1/3 of their health or just block and take their chances so they can maybe stop the vortex.

[@mxtra22]

Tokido is an animal. He gets that knockdown and its a wrap

[@0ShinAkuma0]

@EnvitoScotsman ... ha ha, if you're an akuma mainer, this vid isn't boring, it's pretty helpful to helping your vortex game...and besides, i didn't title it "tokido's best comebacks" just a best of vid, and what tokido is best at, is the vortex game. :-)

[@0ShinAkuma0]

It's a little hard to explain, but I'll try! What I do is press H.K. then a slight slight pause then press M.K. and H.K. at the same time or any two combination of Kick buttons that is easiest for you on the controller. It's almost like a roll of the fingers or a double tap with a minimal pause in between. You'll get the timing with just a little practice. Let me know if it helps! :)

[@allesasfalt]

thanks man

[@GreeneHouseProductions]

amazing video.. ive been playing street fighter for about 2 months and i main akuma.. tokido is my 2nd fav akuma player behind infiltration .... but tokido is an amazing player... his vortex game is rediculous.. o how i wish i was able to play like this... im still strugglin with doing the bread and butter consistantly...

[@mimickme]

@iBringHurTz It's a untechable knockdown, its basically cr hk around the same timing as you would pull off the DP, theres not too much of a window to do it and sometimes tokido does miss it. If you have turbo set it on HK and just hold it after a light tatsu to get a feel for the timing of it.

[@Lesukai]

omg that last battle was a epic comeback!!

[@emjay-gaming]

I wish I saw that full match with viper, it showed they had a perfect against tokido one round

[@BrandonMurga]

Easy combos but great safe jumps and setups. Amazing!

[@0ShinAkuma0]

@Redemptionmusicz ... Lol, yup. i've saved tokido's replays since i started watching them on the replay channel when ssf4 was but a month old. ;-)

[@KeitaroHirochi]

And I didn't mention his opponent is a C.Viper. That chick has crazy combo stuff that can really put the hurtz on any mistake.

[@igordoLoco]

@0ShinAkuma0 just wanting to say we miss your uploads man!

[@johnnyboi1318]

Years after.. i see so many people that have never passed the 4k PP+ online...

[@alexjackson1130]

the best of tokido , the badass!!

[@stretchypants123]

Holy Crap lol! I thought that whenever they were dizzy, the red letters read: STFU lol! goes to show you how much longer I've been around on the Internet lol!

[@MBurrow08]

This is a great video. I wanna see Tokido go against Momochi though.

[@Tmathh]

really nice akuma wow one of the best iv seen

[@PChrisGi]

you can crouch block all akumas move after the demon flip so you can just block everything he does and the air grab whiffs on crouching opponents which is why he does regular jump in's with d+mk which looks like the demon flip kick so that's the only thing you have to look out for and block high everything else just block low

[@ClickForOutkast]

@cyborgLIS I read it on Shoryuken com and other websites, and yes my neighbour has a Xbox and I have a PS3, you can notice the differences between the input delays.

[@xp77254]

I like seeing this video a lot, but now I'm really thinking to myself like I would like to see their inputs

[@basedbroski]

shinakuma's videos are legendary

[@jvkenshin416]

@tehbomb thanks for the pointers. yea i kinda noticed that too. but sometimes I just cant make out the difference in watxhing these vids of akuma.

[@firashabib]

You should do one for Uryo as well that would be awesome .... but this was amazing cheers !

[@VanGoHAF]

dude. he's so mad for loosing at the end of that game, that he's never playing him again

[@redxmaverick]

@jvkenshin416 That is the normal forward jump dive kick. You can tell the difference by the sound of demon flip kick and the normal dive kick make when they connect. Demon Flip Dive Kick sounds like you got hit by a heavy attack and the normal dive kick sounds like you get hit by medium attacks.

[@ThirtyfourEC]

The Best of Tokido.... Arcade edition........ comingsoon

[@ReconHunter101]

This man has one of the scariest vortexes I've ever seen.
