[Daigo] "I Think I Did a Great Job." On Winning "CPT2020 Online Asia East 1 Qualifier." [SFV CE]

[@sickfootgoogle]

I am happy that Daigo won, and I am extremely happy that FGC Translated is back.

[@rayneoftera]

Did it go anywhere, I could have sworn I've been watching it all along?

[@sickfootgoogle]

rayneoftera the channel didn’t upload any new video for over a month. (before was uploading almost everyday regularly) everybody got worry, until now.

[@rayneoftera]

@@sickfootgoogle Ahhhh....I probably was watching the FGC place channel and confused it with this one, my bad!

[@sickfootgoogle]

Macaron Suki not really, now almost every pro player is playing PC version. so not really a big factor, but good for practicing online thu.

[@leontartovsky8949]

People really severely underestimate how difficulty it is for a player like Daigo to maintain such a high level for such a long time. There are so many factors going against him. For one he is undoubtedly the most studied player since back when video footage for his matches were made available for all to see which means that he has had to constantly innovate and switch up his playstyles. Second, he is arguably the most famous player in the entire FGC without a doubt which means that he constantly has fans trying to take photos with him, talk to him, get autographs and even interview him him which doesn’t give me time and space to either practice or study matchups in between rounds. It’s also very exhausting to be stopped so frequently when just walking from one location to another. Third, this point is regarding offline tournaments, people don’t realize how much travel affects performances. Jet lag is real which is why it’s always a huge achievement when an overseas player wins a tournament. Lastly, his legacy which is undoubtedly an external pressure for him to perform and always be winning. Now add to all that to the fact that he is 39 and and the only player older than him that is still performing is Sako but even he does not get as much scrutiny as Daigo. Tokido, Haitani, Fuudo, Nemo and etc are all in their mid or younger 30s. Think about that for a moment. As good as the younger players like Punk, ProblemX and Idom and etc are. They do not have as much going against them with regards to fame, legacy, age and travel. I don’t think many people can and will be able to say that they have had a career as long and successful as Daigo spanning across multiple games in 30 years time. How many of these so called younger players will even be still relevant like SnakeEyez who just disappeared from the face of the earth. PR Balrog and Dieminion who were some of the strongest US players in SF4. I mean just look at how many top players quit or have not performed because SFV was different.

[@thearcadeboy1682]

And above all...he is also a human... people sometimes expect too much from him..he always gave his best regarding all those things you mentioned above.. that's why wi love him respect him

[@mc_zittrer8793]

Hey, so many people got a softspot for a try-hard underdog that devotes himself to his craft. Why do you think Ippo has been popular since like the late 80s? Daigo grew up in an actual dojo environment, but found his niche with fighting games. I feel like he possesses a spirituality with the way he trains to take on his opponents, and the fact that so many of his rivals are talented in their own rights, and are mostly younger than him, makes him all the more competitive. His win record hasn't been perfect, but losses are also important events to grow from, if you allow them to be. Daigo and Smug are two of the players I admire the most in this community.

[@oozarusama]

He is a abuser red bull and this sick

[@TheSwordfish009]

lol... and let's not forget the biggest factor. The FGC has grown soooooo much compared to 20 years ago. There is soooooooo much new talent and those who have access to countless videos and practice so of course Daigo is finding much more difficult competition now. It's a great sign in the FGC for Daigo to have such a struggle against the competition. It means we're evolving.

[@zera5106]

thank you so much Mr. Translator, I really appreciate your work. When Daigo said he improved his gameplay during quarantine he wasn't joking. I thought he can't get any better but his performance at the tournament proved me wrong. Being 39 years old and still keeping up with the best players is insane. I'm glad for him he got the first place, what a beast! :)

[@mizuhashiriku5219]

Thank you for the translation. Nice to know he also surprised his decision going to throw got scaled which I consider one of the OMG moment given how tight the match. Congratulation and thank you for keep reminding this fan of yours the importance of hard work, training and patience in life.

[@markusbrendon]

That was insane, and i was not even surprise, just as i saw all the amazing new techs and the ridiculous whiff punish that Daigo developed thru all those feel months of training i was already believing on his win, but his perfomance was even better than i expected, Fuudo was the actual surprise, the dude was also godlike and made a Grand finals that i will never forget, if Daigo did not trained all that stuff for these months, fuudo would definetly win.

[@sickfootgoogle]

Markus Brendon Lima fuudo was amazing using Poison to defeat Cammy which everyone says was a bad match up. And Daigo’s performance was beautiful. He deserves this champion.

[@robertoxynn825]

well poison is broken af in the first place, that whip can chip opponent's hp fast, the match vs verloren is one of the perfect example. Not downplaying Fuudo though, He is a great and deserves a gf win.

[@lqdpophilde]

As a huge Daigo fan, I couldn't be more thrilled by his come back in the grand final and fearless play. A living legend still amazing the community with crafty play and yet human mistakes that didn't detract from a legendary performance.

[@RushianRichard]

Amen to that! Dedicated truthful Daigo fans shine a positive light. The haters remain in darkness.

[@mansmo9513]

I remember the video when Daigo was arguing about the Hitbox with Fuudo in a hotel room a year ago, and after all that journey he was matched against him in the grand finals, life has a strange way of panning out.

Daigo is looking like one of the favorites now for worlds. I would really like to see how he fares against Idom because of all the people I have been watching lately, he is the one that can actually adjust to Daigo like Daigo does to everyone else and Guile is a character that gives his Laura problems and his Poison is also amazing which is why Fuudo worried him.

[@EX-Flashkick]

Ive been waiting for ya !

[@JW77]

@FGC translated OMG you are back! I was so worried.

[@butteredtoast3032]

daigo basically said he gets a fever every time he plays in a tournament lmao, the intense concentration and effort it takes for him to compete at his best is insane

[@kyril98741]

I was relieved seeing your tweet earlier and taught that you are still alive... Good to see you back.

[@gamerid6507]

congrats da beast..hope u win this year

[@shirakani]

I called it that Fuudo was basically the one guy who Daigo couldn't be sure of beating, especially after what happened in Topanga League. He may have repaid Tokido in spades for the Topanga beating he took but he still had not repaid Fuudo yet. If Veloren had beaten Fuudo in the runback, he probably would have gotten chewed up and spat back out in Grand Finals.

[@dumdum7099]

True, since the begining of SFV, I feel like Fuudo is the only one that can gives Daigo real trouble. Maybe someday Daigo will figure Fuudo out and beat him in a long set. As of right now, I believe Fuudo is still a bad matchup for Daigo.

[@shirakani]

@@dumdum7099 At this point IMO if they were to go FT10, Daigo would still probably win but the result would be close, like 10-8 at best. That's assuming Kemonomichi rules ie locked charas and at least 2 weeks prep time each. If no prep time impromptu FT10, up in the air.

[@dumdum7099]

@@shirakani Yeah, that's the most likely outcome. If Daigo can improve his head to head record against Fuudo I would be a lot more confident.

[@Smashdalip]

Daigo is an enigma when it comes to video games, Its not that hes just great at SF but his ability to take a chracter/matchup, process it, then play it perfectly is almost idk...machine-like? Lol He just takes it to a whole another level. In every field their is someone like this and its fascinating to watch them in it. I couldnt imagine dedicating myself to Fighting games to the level Daigo has, I dont think any other SF players (or other fighting game pros) even take it to that same level. I do think Tokido maybe the closest to getting to that Daigo level, he surely takes it as serious, but imo hes still not their. The next asia qualifier is big for tokido though, so we'll see.
