Bar Fights: gootecks (Urien) vs. @PIKACHUAKUMA (Akuma) Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike 12/23/12 FT10

​@@nlawson2004 two reasons why you as a person and comment are dumb. 1. You're using an example that's 15 minutes into the video? lmao 2. It's an overhead cancelled into a raging demon. Crowds always react to that. It's because of people like you that "modern controls" are a thing.

[@megavolt67]

@@void6091 Yeah, I was watching some 3rd Strike tournament footage that JWong was hosting on his channel and a Urien player who won the whole tournament did way better against an Akuma player. And the parry system in this game can mitigate disadvantage in matchups between characters who aren't far from each other on the tier list. Gootecks just isn't as good as he should be considering that 3rd Strike is supposed to be his best fighting game. It makes me remember all those times that Gootecks complained about SF4 not rewarding smart play. Yet he puts on this performance in a game that he would say does. Maybe it wasn't the game. Maybe it's Gootecks who just wasn't that good. He never had success with any version of SF4 Rose and yet Luffy won EVO 2014 with her.

[@nlawson2004]

@@void6091 Cool story. But in this game Gootecks/Urien was obviously struggling. After a while the crwod will go into salvage mode and cheer on the underdog. So not recognizing that and being rigidly fixed on some predetermined tier hierarchy, is just choosing to not recognize what's happening.

[@fullshark09]

M cause he was and is a personality in the FGC whereas JR is just a cheeky online player and will always be remembered like that.

[@RajmanGamingHD]

Actually JR was a tournament player for many years, in the early 3rd Strike days. He was the best US Akuma for years and often went to EVO and represented team USA

[@fullshark09]

RajmanGaming HD I've seen him, and going to tournaments does not change what you are. Ask LTG.

[@RajmanGamingHD]

Did you miss the part where I said "He was the best US Akuma"? and the fact that he was part of Team USA for EVO? He also placed top 8 at EVO 2008. You dont get those accolades so easily, ask LTG if he has them.Fact is, he was a really good player...not at the very top level, but still good. He was known for his offline play before any online 3s came along

[@fullshark09]

RajmanGaming HD usa was never competitive in 3s besides jwong. Again, he is best known for being an online jerk, and that's how it is. He better think next time if he wants to upload only the fights he wins or if he wanna taunt in the last round of a match everytime. His akuma is gimmicky as fuck, not saying I'd beat him, but outside online/USA he would get destroyed with that kind of mixups and plain pressure.

+Tips4Tat I agree with the last part, but JR doesn't sandbag. That'd be disrespectful.

[@Tips4Tat]

Dr. Fun Nah. You should really watch the match. He barely launched a tatsu and spammed clp for no reason. He could easily have won that round.

[@Doc_Fun]

Mmhm. Discount everything the other player did in order to make the guy you like look good. Pretty sur JR doesnt need your help with that here, Gootecks got bodied, but he capitalized on JR's mistakes that game, specifically out-poking him the second round. Try to be objective.

[@Tips4Tat]

+Dr. Fun First of all I like both. A simple look at the video shows a dramatic difference between what JR did in those rounds from the way he played in those where the victories were free (including the round just after) Secondly, so many elements of your comment make no sense. JR doesn't need my help with what: even figuratively? I said he lost on purpose which is more than clear; Gootecks, as said, hadn't played in forever whereas JR has played SF3 consistently. Outpoking him? Spamming out of character clps, when it was clearly established that Gootecks had no answer for Tatsu is outpoking? Do you watch SF3 matches? You should probably take your own advice. Not sure if you're delusional, ignorantly stubborn, or just a troll.

[@Doc_Fun]

First, just gonna point out that your narrative flow is so poorly connected it seems as though you have some pretty severe aspergers.connect your sentiments, I beg you, it's agony to read. As to your response - I said he doesn't need your help looking good, and please, stop trying to maintain neutrality, because it's just farcical at this point. Gootecks and JR had played about a month or so before this, and not only was it fairly even but it might've actually been in Gootecks' favor. JR played better here, it does not make him so much better than he would feel the need to "let" him win. In their games online Gootecks would often parry the tatsu and then immediately backthrow for corner position, so I'm assuming (and this is a big assumption considering he tatsu'd about 3-4 times in that short second round) that he was testing out a less tatsu-heavy gameplan so Gootecks couldn't easily adapt. Hood playrrs often use rounds in a ft10 for data, but it doesn't mean they're not actively trying to win. And in the first round of 18;00, he got bopped, he got mixed up and died quickly and legitimately. But this is all assuming anything you said is even true, which I'm calling absolute bullshit on. I'm honestly curious what JR himself would say to that accusation, fairly certain he'd be offended at the very idea. Might go ask him.

A red parry is a parry done during block stun. So, assuming you are being hit by a multi-hit attack, if you block one of the hits and parry the hit that follows up, you will perform a red parry (instead of a normal, 'blue', parry).

[@TheUltimateBastich]

Respect for both of you guys. Cheers.

[@awkwardcultism]

Coming back to this video a few years later, I still love JR's play this whole match. Gootecks only gets like four mixups in the whole FT10. That is crazy good defense, and he's doing that at the same time as he's doing this insane rushdown. Urien spent like 25% of the game pushed into the corner. Beautiful Third Strike. To contrast, I really dislike Gootecks's play here. He gets great damage off of most of his punishes... but not enough to kill. His plan was to make up that gap by punishing the tatsus with red parries, but he never got one. The difference of the thousands of hours of experience here is palpable. That's all okay though. If your plan doesn't work, you get a new plan. The turning point was when the score became 5-0. At this point it is clear Gootecks's gameplan was a failure. His options are to change something up or lose. Gootecks chose to lose. JR had proven that Gootecks couldn't defeat his offense. Gootecks should have tested his defense. Rushdown his rushdown! Kill him before he tatsu's you! He's Akuma! He's made out wet paper towels! You'll get one round out of the surprise alone! No. He just sits there in the corner, getting bodied. The coach's suggestions of Tyrant Slaughter or Chun, while questionable, are way better than just dying with dignity like Gootecks did. If you change something up, you gain ground psychologically. By game 7, Gootecks was totally mindfucked. He gets a knockdown, what's his meaty play? BACK UP LIGHT PUNCH. WTF!? Who does that!? If you ever catch yourself playing like this, take your water bottle and dump it on your head. Rip off your T-shirt. Anything to get your confidence back. You can't win if you've already lost in your mind. Lastly, this set is a great example of good and bad coaching. Wong and the other guy have maybe one decent piece of advice between them this whole set. They said it so loud JR heard it too. Meanwhile, JR's man is so subtle I didn't even realize he had a coach until my fourth viewing. Take notes, people. Gootecks didn't have a cold, 10-1s don't happen on accident. Practice. THINK. Do the last thing your opponent suspects! Most importantly, choose to win!

Like lets say akuma's hk. tatsu hits 4 times on block, if you were to normal parry, you would have to parry the initial first hit, then second/third/fourth, then push with c.hp or whatever you want. BUT if you know how to red parry, you are able to block the first 3 hits, then press forward at the right time on the 4th hit, that will cause a 'red' parry and you can punish afterwards.

so sick! great games guys

[@MergatroidS]

9:44 okay, THAT was sick

[@Darksaige]

That last match when gootecks blacked out with the random hits was great. That was a hard match though.

[@TheAcad3mic]

Also, I think Justin actually makes a really good commentator. He reminds me a lot of the commentators here on the UK scene, they aren't people nutting over the fight like a fan would do, they really know the game, they really know their shit, and they read it brilliantly and correctly. Just like Justin is doing here. The UK scene ain't up to much in terms of the quality of the players, let's keep it real, but we have the best commentary on the streams going lol

[@gerardust]

What year was that?

[@jandrmayers]

death by a thousand tatsus

[@GuilhermeHolz]

We still love you Gootecks, damn hard matchup.

[@fruityloops]

one of my favorite 3rd strike matches to watch. gootecks put up good fight but JR and that akuma are too good.

[@BorjaOller]

Damn so much chip damage from that tatsu o.o

[@Energyone]

Would be nice to see Justin try this guy using Urien.

[@hairshaker33]

what fight stick is gootecks using? its beautiful

[@SquantoShinyShorts]

I believe it was one of the old Eightarc sticks

[@SHONSL]

9:47 that was some nasty shiet

[@RAY296]

Light crouching kick, light tatsu, jab, into super. Looks nice, but literally anyone can do it

[@vampdude]

That was a good match, dude... Keep Urien up! Screw shotos!

[@IBroLLyISePhIrOtH]

I don't really care that Gootecks lost. He's still just a wayyy cooler guy than JR.

[@Swarki]

:(

[@starfox300]

***** "Who picks a name like that?" A twelve year old?

[@DuloxAndDaxixx]

no.

[@HuhWhatHuhwhatHuh]

starfox300 says the guy with the chick magnet Name starfox300...

[@PrestonGarveyofthesettlements]

Bob Dobbs LMAO

[@julioloboo]

So jwong and renic were commenting and coaching gootecks? I know it's a bad matchup and all, but that's kind weird.

[@Mattwi]

Just because he isn't arrogant in person doesn't mean he can't be arrogant online.

[@Chaldean4life91]

Poor, J.R. No one was cheering him.

[@mcjackson4198]

Renic sounded and looked more bummed out from the set than gootecks did lmao

[@bzbzane7074]

Gootecks plays so shitty in this set lmao, as if he hadn't touched the game in years and forgot all about it xD
