Daigo Beasting

[@bahaanaldo]

Love Third Strike's character artwork. My favorite.

[@THEeireTTv]

he doesnt "just play" he practices for hours against different playstyles and chars all the time, inviting people over from foreign countries to practice against, like a professional boxer or soccer team. he is pro, on top of his skill he still had to strive for it, deserving of his title.

[@supernewuser]

For Daigo this is Tuesday.

[@alexanderstilianov]

+supernewuser Daigo Dollar!

[@stackbundles2663]

6:20 sounds like loose chickens running around a farm

[@sebmaq]

i love how Ken looks in SF3, kinda manga style

[@LinkPS]

That double parry at 2:48 was plain sick o.O

[@abzu5640]

4:43 "SHORYU-JINRAI" 🔥💪😬

[@test540va]

Out of all the Street Fighter Games, 3rd Strike is still the one that Baffles the Hell out of me when I watch hi-level matches. The Parrying is 100% Psychic. Its amazing how well people have mastered this game.

[@Sunkan86]

I don't play Street Fighter regularily at all (although I really like fighting games). But it's always so fascinating to see people at the best of their abillities, regarding what they are good at. Thanks for the show! :)

[@dbnpoldermans4120]

Daigo is a very good player. When he gets annoyed, he's unstoppable. His comboing and parrying skills are hilarious to watch. I bet the developers must be really impressed by his skills. He's also very unpredictable, he will use an attack stream as long as the opponent does not know how to handle/counter it. After that he just something completely different.

[@JiTae365]

3rd Strike...What a wonderful piece of gaming. Such a deep fighting game which requires the up most dedication to perfect. This is my favorite SF game of all time.

[@xioutube]

the sinster laugh in the background is legit. Also, 2:45 was a 'nigga plz' moment.

[@HarosOfStyx]

3rd strike had wonderful parrying techniques. If only SF IV had that...

[@hom3r]

The reaction time is memory reflex or muscle reflex. He knew what to input unlike normal people like us. Takes countless of practice to do what he did there.

[@jasonthecanadian]

@overlordss If you mean Genei-Jin, it allows you to chain quicker, basically quicker recovery on moves.

[@SilverwingsX2]

Daigo is a former Streetfighter alpha Champ and an absolutly Streetfighter legend. He dominated the SF scene for many years but he`s quit already. But who know`s? maybe he makes a comeback anytime.

[@stolensentience]

Maybe yeah

[@bogidar92]

@RyukendenY there is even a video RX beating Daigo but daigo is really awesome. even i had watched this video 1 year ago i can still watch it and be amazed at daigos awesome reflexes its me shouryuken btw

[@gold3263301]

@ShinOnigashima Meh, I thought they were talking about the one around 1:30. :/ But no, it's still possible to cancel an LP SRK into super because there are frames where the enemy is still on the ground. It's not like cancelling Ryu's SRK into his Shinku Hadoken, because that super does not have a 1 frame start up. Ken's Super III does.

[@ninjasification]

@blokeroy its like this- parry(by pressing "forward") then press "down," and then diagonal DF+punch(shoryuken), then do 1/4 circle+kick. this will give you the entire combo. Some people don't realize it's NOT like this- forward, zigzag+punch, 1/4 circle, 1/4 circle+punch. It's more like THIS- "forward(parry)then 1/4 circle+punch(shoryuken)then 1/4 circle+kick(super art) Daigo is really good but I know some people don't know exactly how it works

[@teh_blazerer]

@darknessredefine You don't get it. He used that quote in reference to Characters/Kicks, not Video Games Vs. Real Life.

[@gold3263301]

@ShinOnigashima lol umad? MK (which is not an MP, mind you) doesn't cancel into an HP. It cancels into any Shoryuken, which is what you see in the video.

[@HalfAsianGuy]

The only dying any board does if maybe a small resistor or another part becoming worn and falling out of place. These kind of issues can be fixed easily.

[@SamuriX2010]

@beesnipe16 Actually SF3 TS is after 4 in the game timeline.

[@akclark09]

@Prowl76 Being able to play with a multitude of characters is like practicing 10,000 kicks 10,000 times each. So yeah, I think it indicates skill somewhat

[@nastynas9000]

The battery on the Cps3 security cartridge is suppost to die after a while, Rendering the board uplayable. Unless you get a new battery and someone to install it, you can't play it. Are these batteries easily accesible? Do many people install them?

[@ThirtyfourEC]

@beesnipe16 3rd Strike takes place after SF4. Looks more mature in his portrait (from the character select)

[@Dylan321321]

THIS WAS A YEAR AGO!!!!!! WHY???!!!

[@sotovo]

glad to hear you discovered sf3!, the parry system is what makes it the richest by far. Its what chess is to checkers.

[@SleepyBuddha1]

@blokeroy You couldn't find the "top-tier keyboard play"? It's in the KZbin section with the top-tier 50cc rally car driving and the top-tier one legged soccer.

[@ShinOnigashima]

@gold3263301 Oh and btw, if you cancel a LP SRK to super, it sends the opponent up in the air. Only MP, HP and EX Shoryu can link correctly into the super ;)

[@nanakon28]

at 1:02 I know for a fact that one is a parry but any attacks to Ken before that looked just like a regular block. Unless they have multiple animations for a parry and some don't reward Tech Bonus.

[@firebreathingllama]

Yeah I beat Daigo once, then I woke up...

[@Virsaga]

I really wanna go up against daigo (i know I'll lose) but still he looks like he'd be fun as shit to play. I wonder if he will return for SF4

[@blokeroy]

@maytinkerblast Because it's HARD to get to the level they're at. Take 5:59 as an example. Daigo parried an attack (which requires tenth-of-a-second timing, everyone has that), did a normal(one button press, basic), cancled into a Shoryuken (a zigzag on the joystick, BUT he had to do it in 1/30 OF A SECOND OR LESS), and then CANCLED THAT INTO A SHIPPU JINRAI KYAKU (he had to roll his joystick a quarter of a circle to the right TWICE IN LESS THAN 1/30 OF A SECOND!)! All that in 1 second! Insane!

[@BiscuitHead22]

Brilliant critique, bro.

[@KazuyaDStrika]

cool, always nice to see beasting, especially by daigo

[@Cactuken]

blocks in 3rd only chip if its a special move or a super, normal attacks wont do any chip damage

[@xS0ulSB4nEx]

@yondaimegenesis I'm sorry, you misspelled Kuroda.

[@SerratedbladeX]

anyone notice how theres less room on the screen in SF4??

[@BambamCZ]

it's on ARC/PS2 and mabe CD + only in NTSC regions

[@spotlesseden]

@Setzer Daigo doesn't seem to doing well with Yun? do you know SSF4? he won 2/3 tournament that he entered and 4th on one other. He has one of the highest winning % in Japan arcade.

[@GuiltySoul5]

This is Street Fighter 3rd strike. And yes u can play on the PS2 but u have to find the Street Fighter Anniversary Collection which contains 3rd Strike.

[@HalfAsianGuy]

All batteries die after awhile because it just runs out of juice. I don't know about how the CPS3 board is built, but the battery is likely to be the same that you find on PC motherboards; a quarter-sized lithium battery. Replacing them is about as easy as changing out AA's.

[@llcoolfei]

@Tud3la nope instead they are replaced by endless shoryus.

[@dnajohnny]

Thump up if you mute the sound and watch this awesome video

[@blokeroy]

@dkblade27 Have you ever done that? I don't have a joystick, so the farthest I've gotten is 2 parrys followed by a super cancel. I bet you've never even done a kara SRK, much less canceled it...

[@blokeroy]

@dkblade27 Sure, one parry is easy, but remember the time frame he had to do it in. I don't have a joystick, so I have to use a keyboard. The farthest I've ever gotten is 2 parrys followed by a super cancel, so no, that's not too hard, but remember the normal canceled into a kara SRK, and then that super canceled, AND the time frame Daigo had to execute all that in...

[@SilverwingsX2]

yeah.i`m looking forward to it

[@StephanieHua]

love me some 3S. I don't know if it was the extra frames of animation.... but why did they make SF4 so hard to buffer moves?? Links.. and just doing combos into super moves is like as hard as ST, Alpha, and CVS2... :(

[@makenbboonrat7343]

r u serious... SF4 is 1 of the easiest friendly game in the series... Old school is way harder.

[@TristanIRL]

MAKenB Boonrat To be fair, while SF4 has lax inputs, there's strict timing involved in combos. But I think it's still harder (and more gratifying) to be good at 3S than SF4.

[@ShinAkuma]

lol IDK what you're talking about, even doing 3 hit combos in ST was an accomplishment, Third strike juggles and those 1 hit hitconfirms are much much harder than anything, SF4 has been debated to have the easiest execution wise, currently SFV holds that title though.

[@Hurley1080]

Is there anyway I can play this game now? I first started SF with 4 but these old ones look sick. What systems were they on?

[@HervProm3theus]

@SwagMaster9000 Actually he says Umehara Ga.. Umehara is in Daigo Umehara

[@abdel007a]

and now this is a year old

[@Haxzilog]

@Levion i agree with you its like the difference between knowing and mastering

[@jpdstan]

@akclark09 obviously its an exaggeration... hes saying that a bigger challenge wuld b someone who plays one character rather than playing all of them

[@cougher989]

I've only played SF2 and SF4... this parry system is crazy! And what's crazier is the pro's who can time it perfectly.

[@SHONSL]

omg daigo's reaction time is nothing like ive ever seen

[@dkblade27]

is it possible to view the old youtube layout

[@Prowl76]

@zippo718 "This isn't martial arts...It doesn't take long to learn a character inside and out" That quote totally applies to SF. In SSF4 there are 35 characters. That means there are 35 match ups per character you must learn to truly be competitive. Learning three characters means 105 total match ups. That is a lot of info. Learning match ups is a long, difficult process. Any time divided amongst multiple characters is time that could have been spent perfecting a single character.

[@bluemage67]

@TokyoKing5 I think Parrying should stay in Third Strike. It's very cool, but it's super hard to do right. Focus Attacks are a nice, much easier, alternative.

[@FlyingDeagle]

For a start, he played just like him. I was skeptical at first also, but i talked to him and he explained to me why he was here in Australia, SBO in Sydney. Seemed legitimate enough, he was also impressed when i told him i use keyboard. :P

[@dkblade27]

@blokeroy that combo is the most basic of combo in the game. and its not hard at all. and he did was mp>hp>sa3 i dont know where you got kara srk from.

[@Dylan321321]

THAT WAS A YEAR AGO!!!!

[@greenchilaquiles]

4:35 can someome explain what happens here? Reversal, ex shoryuken, cancel into super?

[@FerrariLover79]

y tho h. Shoryuken into super. The first hit doesn’t launch so it works

[@quicklagii]

i love this game because is the only SF where you have to use the hadoken wisely

[@Kyuubi424]

I love how Yang just stands there as Yun gets his ass handed to him. It's like he's saying "Yeah bro, you owe me that $5 now."

[@DarKR8iN]

best artwork ever

[@snoopolion]

No its makes 3rd strike an unique Game!!

[@bubbyj]

it hasnt been out for a year and its not on clearance at target.....what game do you think you are talking about? DOA3?

[@CAVALLIN0]

what system were the 3rd strike tournaments played on?

[@nitakappa]

@oscarfizz Cause in the meantime, that dude has practiced one kick 150000 times?

[@gold3263301]

@blokeroy Yes, it was a Light Shoryuken.

[@Cluter]

This game is on the Street Fighter Anniversary Collection for PS2 and Xbox. Both are backwards compatible with the PS3 and 360 though :) This game is amazing

[@stretchypants123]

yep, that's exactly the event that I was referring to. But I also noticed that he does this on many other tournaments as well (just because he can, and he's a "beast.")

[@cheesya157]

Which this version of Street Fighter? n could be used on PS2?

[@xX_ChrisD]

so tru he is a really good showman

[@nanakon28]

I've never played 3 but how come their health aren't getting chipped when they are blocking? Is it only certain attacks they will chip when they block? Cuz at the beginning of round 2 when daigo was going against the Dudley player, he kept blocking but his health didn't get chipped at all.

[@SpoonOfHawaii]

@0EazyDuzIt Ichigoh... it even says at the character select screen

[@oscarfizz]

@Prowl76 Why not practice 15 kicks 10,000 times?

[@nastynas9000]

I've heard the Cps3 boards die after a while. Is this true?

[@sukkafoo]

Yes, the player's name is ザンゴエフ　(Za-n-go-e-fu) or Zangoef.

[@CrimsonSnow]

4:36 OOOOHHH!!! SHO RYU JIN RAI LMAO very nice.

[@Azk]

@neofantomu I'd love to see a video from you parrying a stream of hadoukens :P

[@Stimpackswe]

@jacksonsim95 U cannot make huge combos in SF4? Ofc you can, sagats ultra alone is 12-13 hits.

[@NSLM]

3:49 AHHH THIRD STRIKE!

[@yondaimegenesis]

@KikiDaiso i posted this BEFORE i saw rx play now my opinion is daigo was overglorified in sf3 and the only reason why he is so popular is A his comeback from justin wong and hands up that was good and because he was one of the only third strike players to start playing sf4 theres a bunch of other reaons but you catch the gist

[@Shoureppa]

@Prowl76 That qoute is sick!

[@Massacretalitor]

Is that Kokujin playing on the first match? His Dudley is fantastic. I wished he would've been maining Dudley in SSFIV, too, but oh well :(

[@Jayhachi88]

touche. but you still havent addressed the stick issue. I can imagine getting a good game from Australia to be difficult.

[@CharREX]

what happen to daigo lately? owning in SF4?

[@pftmclub]

02:52 , how to do parry after attack enemy?

[@protoman1214]

I wonder how many hours of practice a week the pros put in.

[@GlobalSaturation1117]

@ClickForOutkast he uses Guile in SSF4 as well ,bud watch his video againt Justin wong at the LA fight club

[@protoman1214]

Returning the favorz :D

[@oscarfizz]

@Cpapa18 No i mean like. 15 individual kicks 10,000 times each. -.-.

[@pratikh]

I love how animated the announcer gets... might as be listening to a Japanese cattle auction.

[@jeroenmorhen]

THAT WAS POST 9 MONTHS AGO !

[@julesickdrums]

daigo is invincible >_>..... well maybe not but his reflexes are definitely out of this world Great alex btw!

[@Quake2815]

Thats the players name??The grappler char is Alex not Zangief.

[@tv16bit]

they've been doing that alot lately in newer fighting games, brawl as well, so far tekken 6 seems to be the only one that didnt really lose any space.

[@88yodnom]

no because the screen pans out the farther you move away from the opponent
