[@castleford2591]

The only thing holding you back is that you're not consistently confirming supers. It's tough, but you always gotta be ready to confirm into supers off of stray hits. That'll take your game to the next level.

[@IronKnee963]

Wrong. What's holding him back is not knowing how to parry and when the enemy parries.

[@everbornnjackson]

@@IronKnee963 EXACTLY.

[@northerncaliman9295]

@@IronKnee963 I'm tired of people thinking 3rd strike is just about parrying only SMFH

[@IronKnee963]

@@northerncaliman9295 And I'm tired of people who are too stupid to read. I never said it's all about parrying. Parries are however an important factor in the game. He constantly got parried and didn't know when to parry himself.

[@snakebebop]

@@IronKnee963 but you did make it seem like it's all about parrying by saying the op was wrong. I think it's both, parrying and hit confirming into supers are essential in 3rd strike.

[@DJIzco]

MutantXP is an OG and has been considered one of the best necros for years. hes also the head of Jazzy Circuit so dont feel too bad. Bad luck first round but still a fun match to watch. Been fun watching you improve at 3s as you’re one of my favorite players to watch.

[@mybeardnappybaybee]

Yea dude mutantXP is too raw

[@Mike.325]

Facts

[@nigelthornberry9797]

“A what! But we’re in march”. That delivery killed me. Lmao

[@MrTheil]

4:28 They hit such a high note so hard it crashed the game lmao

[@LakeEarth]

That's just what happens with FightCade, made worse with it coinciding with Necro's win scream.

[@matthew-epurnell1610]

LMAO!

[@jerama]

smug when he wiggity washes fools with the greatest of ease from now on: *Tell your moms thank you and you're welcome*

[@AliMohamed-fu5lc]

5:02 that was the weirdest, sickest interaction ive seen in a minute

[@phil4863]

Unparryable

[@subterraneanretrogames556]

I think that Akuma was trying to style. He could’ve chipped you, but he got got cause he not not.

[@user-gu5dv7vj8r]

This soundtrack is immortal. I remember I used to have a friend who was into retro fighting games and we would play fightcade together and also listen to old drum n bass music. we lost contact and damn, I miss him so much.

[@SpaceDuppy]

I hope you get back in contact with each other.

[@Dastivus]

I was rolling at "DON'T DISRESPECT MY FUNDAMENTALS" 😂😂😂😂

[@Ronin-kk4bt]

🤣

[@Delicoms]

Need more third strike tournament footage I gotta see you get nice at this game

[@thegodofpez]

“Thank you… and you’re welcome.” Possibly my favorite KZbin line, dead serious. 😂🔥🙌

[@janitorialjargon2411]

That Akuma got Guile themed🤣. Nice comeback Sir Smuggington 😁

[@aserodriguez1425]

That akuma had such a big lead he started being cocky n straight up let smug hit him a few times, but when smug put him in the corner and did a bunch of damage he changed his mind real quick 😆....you can tell he tried to stop him n still get the win but it was too late Smug was already all up in his wig😆. That's what you get for being a clown

[@randomator3s]

Great video Smug. The Dudley looking scary already dog, always fun watching the growth

[@LolaliciousSmiley]

Smug has such a great attitude. I'm always rooting for this guy.

[@Demigod_3scrub]

smug . I am so proud of you bruh.. you've risen beyond the threshold of a sF player. facts..

[@shispanna]

Good fight man. Sometimes you have to take that L and not let it get to you with greatest of ease. CvS2 announcer voice: I know you'll be back.

[@shinjoni]

It is so hype to see Smug in 3s tournaments!

[@manifestationnation]

Either that light in the intro was too bright or smug was high af

[@bulletsunderpressure]

Smug: I got this. "GETS MOPPED" LMAO

[@igorribas8235]

I wanna see more SF3rd strike tournaments from u Smug, lets gooo!

[@Tenrou2]

Intro to this one had me dead. Bro made an avatar of you. Love that you're bringing attention to 3rd Strike and actually getting into it. Necro is annoying, but gotta try tapping down to red parry the last hit of his electric snake for some JOOCY damage. The risk vs reward is always worth it.

[@jestfullgremblim8002]

You can't imagine how many times i have gotten red parried in that same part of the move, it hurts.

[@BluntsmithThePackWizard]

Bruh at 3:58 those block and then the confirmed sfx matched up with the theme is was clean af

[@Ryusuta]

Seeing Smug get a chance to play Dudley in a game again makes me smile so much.

[@blyat8832]

Whoa there's actually a necro being used that's pretty rare. Good on them for being a based Chad

[@coolswag4612]

Yeah he is one of the best necros on fightcade too, his name is mutantxp

[@snakebebop]

@@coolswag4612 lol "online". You make it sound like that's an accomplishment

Necro's my main haha

This man said I had you duckin' under the table like 😱 lmao

[@taylorbee4010]

3rd strike is one of those games where if someone's better than you you enter a tournament full of better players you're probably going to get lit up

[@BebehCookieIcecream]

No cutting corners in this dinosaur ass game. The seasoned players really do just wash people over and over.

[@RigbyIsTheMan]

@@BebehCookieIcecream gets boring

[@BuySmartChannel2700]

Smug, always good to see you play.

[@nobodyinparticular80]

Smug high af in that intro

[@Oyabun_Live]

It's so fun watching SMUG getting better in 3rd Strike. Yo SMUG, u practicing match-up specific combos though? U need to know those to bump your dmg with the greatest of ease.

[@SMUGDaBeast]

Nah I’m still learning about all of them

[@mickeymousse3681]

I'm just happy to see that this SF5 man saw the light and is playing a real SF game.

[@LFonzus]

SMUG! Watch heaps of videos on how kuroda played Dudley in 3rd strike. You’ll get a fair idea on how he’s supposed to be played on 3rd strike. You kinda have to play him patiently like a sniper and look for chances to use strong punch into ducking then super cancel.

[@program6274]

That intro was so funny lmaoo

[@kevinm4193]

Smug why you staring directly into the sun on your intro bro

[@thesmilingvagrants]

I like watching Smug play 3s over any other game

[@maximilianohernandez8462]

3RD STRIKE and MvsC 2 are the climax of the franchise

[@sa-x7882]

GGs! Can't wait to see more 3rd strike content from my favorite youtuber/streamer with the greatest of ease. Big love from Brazil!

@@4get. Né cara, isso é muito legal, sempre bom saber que a comunidade BR também está presente por aqui, o conteúdo do Smug é muito bom

I rarely comment twice, but there's a really good Feetwork 101 video about Kokujin's Dudley. You should watch it Smug. It'll have you doing the "OH....you can do THAT!?" face lmao 🤣

That intro haha classic!

[@franksmith3744]

My favorite game CLASSIC. Remember walking to the arcade to play this in Japan.

[@tonyshiakallis7878]

Id love too see Smug whoop some of these arrogant 3rdS players in the future.

Wow they Gave you MutantXP Right out the gate. He's a level S rank hero in OPM.

How do you do that 123 with dudley?

[@cestroke4899]

[@markj3169]

Holding back on the supers. Plus when opponents get a little predictable definitely mash Cross Counter now and again

[@trangtrong3967]

Damn son u look stoned a F in that hoodie lol

[@Demigod_3scrub]

7:38 you see moments like these are the reason this is the best sf ever made..

[@webe9008]

Lesgoooo third strike, you should try and enter stupid strike one day, all the heaviest hitters are there (at least from North America)

8:30 did dudly say uppercut without doing it?

you'd need extraordinary skill to close a 3d strike tournament lol that game is scientific af

How do u setup 3rd strike?

I didn't know the can opener series was doing 3rd strike.
