Interview at Infiltration's: Life as a Pro Street Fighter Player

[@hockey1973]

A simple guy, living a simple life, living his dream of being a pro fighting game player who's respectful of the community and his opponents. Infiltration is just plain awesome.

[@andresgv10]

+ModerateWhovian Indeed. The more I read/watch about this guy, the more I respect him.

[@kayracan3663]

Or assam

[@iamsomebody6267]

He had domestic violence issue though.

[@HoldenReviews]

Watching this video and seeing how humbly he lives really gives me a new level of respect for Infiltration. Great video as always.

[@RaptorJordan]

Whoa, I didn't know that you also do some holdin' over at the FGC scene too!

[@PurpleWarlock]

+HoldenReviews He needs some cooking lessons. So much fast food is bad for his health and personal finances.

[@HoldenReviews]

Jordan Raptor Yeah, I like esports a lot.

[@RaptorJordan]

+HoldenReviews Same here but we call it eatsports on the side of the internet I'm from.

[@Giriko3490]

+HoldenReviews do you have SF5? If so, may I fight you some time?

[@devsf4]

Wow what a great interview. And he's right about colours. If a top player is complaining about survival mode then you know it's a problem.

[@unekhrk]

Lol preach bro way too much of struggle

[@mogunz94]

I just want dark green Ken

[@eddylopez76133]

+Trevon Norton Amen!

[@CoreAGaming]

+DevSF4 Thanks, I was glad to know it's hard for everyone lol.

[@Prohxyy]

Someone actually found a break in the ai, where you can constantly shoryuken with Ken or ryu and beat all one hundred stages. The video is on KZbin. I would assume people would like to feel like they earned it, but at the same time I just want my damn colors, and to not play a mode I would not normally touch for them.

[@kameronwraithd.k.5363]

Daigo is now training in the gravity chamber at 200 G :v

[@Eudamonic]

+chris 3S after travelling back in time

[@Eudamonic]

+chris 3S and after wishing for immortality

[@Eudamonic]

+chris 3S and hes stuck in the hyperblick chambor

[@Bounty2223]

Infiltration is the Saitama of Street FIghter.

[@MangaBoi]

+Blizz DeKay He used to have more hair... I hope he gets more food in the fridge.

[@thelightseeker94]

lmao! lives very humble. kicks the most ass.

[@TheLegendaryYou]

+Blizz DeKay Saitama is a Dick Joke , ! Goku is better and stronger!

[@Zoibek]

+The Legendary You you act like either of then are strong characters. google demonbane

[@medicineman5344]

No saitama is a parody character. He was created and is made purposefully OP because of how Goku and Superman are OP.

[@BornFreeYT]

Now that's an interview!!! Thank you :)

[@CoreAGaming]

+BornFree Thanks! I've been enjoying your interviews as well :)

[@BornFreeYT]

+Core-A Gaming Yeah I enjoy doing the interviews but wish I had a team and could increase my production quality. I'd like to focus on the ideas and better content and not worry about all the production. I have a million ideas but end up executing very little of what I want... I enjoy your stuff very much.

[@MiKeYROG]

It's finally good to see a top playing thinks that survival mode is hard. I was thinking I am a bad player. A great interview, I loved the idea of going to infiltration's house for this.... Thank you for sharing this guys.

[@Madmac87ify]

+MiKeYROG ya, the thing is, if you play survival like against a human player, you won't make it. And thats the main reason to me why the mode sucks so hard for unlocking colors. Spamming mp.Srk for 100 matches doesnt sound so fun^^

[@Intothevoid-NIB]

That's because the literal only way to beat survival mode is to spam some bullshit with your favorite character and then keep doing that until they die.

[@XxgunsterzxX]

so Infiltration is a lab monster. Much respect.

[@natekek9922]

Hmm. What's that box of tissues for?

[@TripleChimpers]

+NateKek lol

[@fou-luthedragonemperor8648]

+NateKek The tears he gets on survival mode, of course... ...what do you mean you don't believe me?

[@StruC]

+Prateek Bhaunt He's sick all the time.

[@cheef825]

+NateKek you already know ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@cheef825]

let's just say he preordered for the chun outfit ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@supersonicstep]

when i saw his fridge i shed a tear

[@gingfreecss751]

+supersonicstep haha am a single too. my fridge look like that most of the time

[@supersonicstep]

+Necali madarame geez man! But you gotta be a regular at a resturant. So whats your favorite resturant

[@HanyunanodesuDC]

+supersonicstep except if you live in korea, you would miss out on so much good food by making your own at home :( delivery's also usually free, so really there's no point in learning cooking for those single men out there in food paradise.

[@supersonicstep]

+HanyunanodesuDC Oh well that Explains alot, In That Case He doesnt Live the super struggle Lmao

[@shaunonsite]

+HanyunanodesuDC This is exactly right. Even better if you're a teacher here and your meals are free during the weekday. Save SO much cash.

[@Bosley8000]

It's like an episode of Cribs, FGC edition

[@NeilMacay]

Quite an eye opener to see arguably the best Street Fighter player living in such a humble and minimalistic apartment. I've had unemployed college mates living in apartments of the same, if not higher quality than Infil's.

[@thePANDEMlC]

+Murderous Neil (Macal) It's really smart, he's probably made enough money by now to live in a much nicer place if he wanted. Seems like a cozey place if he's by himself and he travels constantly so I doubt it feels cramped living by himself.

[@t4d0W]

+Murderous Neil (Macal) kinda funny since I watched LOL and CSGO pro teams and their "gaming" houses. Granted its at least five or more individuals living in one house with their own space but even then some of apartment complexes look nice enough. Infiltration's gaming house is nice, simple and even if I was in same situation would choose a place like that as a humble abode.

[@juang8360]

Never in a million years would I have guessed that EVEN INFILTRATION STRUGGLES TO GET THOSE F*CKING COLORS !!! And yeah, excellent video guys ! Keep it up !

[@MystyrNile]

That's because his skill - like that of any great player - lies in his ability to adapt to his opponent's tendencies. This AI has no tendencies. The victor of a survival mode round is random.

[@metalsquirrelgamer]

+MystyrNile this.

[@Diavolo989]

Infiltration looks like such a nice guy! No wonder he's my favourite player in SF! I've been following him since the early Hakan days , now his popularity is exploding after he steamrolled those two majors. I'm so happy to see that he is so humble and honest about how he lives. He really is a great example of how a great player should be(attitude wise and gamewise). Also this was a really cool interview keep giving out this good stuff Core-A ! Your videos are always interesting and insightful.

[@gibgun]

Thanks for the content! Very reassuring to hear that SFV is gaining traction in Korea.

[@samdroidva]

Wow, this is proof that you don't play Street Fighter for Money. You play it for Love.

[@MrDbzfan45]

love for what. theres no love what hes gonna marry the game?

[@samdroidva]

Right on dumbass. Stay stupid.

[@andresgv10]

Very good interview. I'm glad that I found out this channel recently.

[@juanroaguilo]

This was EPIC! Great interview, all my respects to Infiltration from Chile

[@peacockmusicpage]

wow. he's a regular guy. reminds me of one punch man's apartment lol

[@esmyrelda3166]

I love that he doesn't play much but still has so much natural skill. It's great to know that he also enjoys training a lot, it always seems like players who are very diligent when studying in training mode do well and I always like seeing players like that.

[@BlainTopel]

+Jin Kazama (Juri the hentai girl) I don't think it's natural skill as much as he has a better more efficient way of solving problems and getting better than most people do.

[@Hadesillo]

A real legend in the FGC.

[@dereka415]

That was very well done. Answered a lot of my questions about Infiltration.

[@eddylopez76133]

This was really fucking awesome. Infiltration is not the champ we need but the one we deserve!

[@LeKingCarnage]

Well if he says colors are too hard to get Capcom should get to work with that. Anyway this interview is great since it's more of a glimpse of their life rather than just answering questions given to them.

[@StormHowl]

Amazing interview, and wow! I love Infiltration's house. It has everything you would every really need despite the small spacing. Also, CAPCOM! LISTEN TO YOUR TOP PLAYERS! Make getting the dang colors easier XD

[@samchoi4993]

Great interview man. As a Korean player myself it good to see Street Fighter picking up popularity in Korea.

[@t4d0W]

+Sam Choi So far the KOF community (NL, MadKOF), Tekken Community (200WON, Knee) and some new players have picked up SFV. A few have shown up in the weekly SFV Crash. Its funny how some people thought SFV would strongly appeal to casual players but if anything, what it did was unite players from different FGs to get into it.

[@TheDiBoG]

Infi you are an exceptional kind and nice guy,And at the moment you are probably the best player in the world.you are trully enjoyable mate

[@CrayZJo3Davola]

knee in sf? blood will be spilt

[@ShinAkuma]

+Basho Knee's blood ? Sure will be.

[@zakariazz8399]

3:14 Ohh damn Infiltration... what is that box of tissues doing there? * wink wink *.

[@jonathanh7509]

Zangief

[@tonykeo83]

+Zakaria ZZ After a hard day playing SFV Infiltration like to relax and activate the F trigger.

[@BirdnTree]

i am not the only one who noticed lol

[@amadeus5403]

We are too familar I see. Lol

[@BaconSenpai]

Crazy eh, he jerks it like 99% of males on the planet, what a shocker!

[@AsterDXZ]

Even Infiltration is tired of survival mode

[@metallicaband]

Really really great interview, good job ! Man infiltration is an awesome dude, wish him all the best and that color suggestion cracked me up lol.

[@elvistwatty]

Infiltration seems so awesome

[@Aggrofool]

What a modest pad for a World #1. We FGC really are poverty.

[@RandomGuy010]

+Jen Soon Ng It's in Asia though. I dunno about Korea but that place looks huge by Japanese standards.

[@TheMattmatic]

+Roy Bread Yeah depends on the country and city, if your his age living in central Stockholm you usually live in a place about this size.

[@osirisgralying448]

Jen Soon Ng wait untill you see my melty blood setup

[@Nukenin12]

Wtf lmao I actually didnt expect that Daigo clip hahaha this interview video is so legit too hahaha

[@germanicusfortunov3385]

great comments from the fans. I think the fans are as good as they are because it takes maturity to get good at this game. I guess that's also why a consensus top-5 player in the world isn't living in a mansion. I've watched a lot of DOTA lately and the difference in money is ridiculous; I think that has some to do with the social nature of that game versus the solitary nature of fighting games. I'm 45 years old and finally committed to getting decent at SF and just did my first 7-hit FADC-including combo this week, now it's coming even quicker. Big thumbs up to the community and uTube

[@KampfspieleTV]

Pretty interesting video, thanks for the impression!

[@OoJirexoO]

thank you so much for this great interview... I like infiltration a lot and now, I know more about his lifestyle. I really aprecciate it. subscribed

[@troyisfilming]

That was awesome, Infiltration is one of the best!

[@LiangHuBBB]

such a cool guy

[@darkabsolute935]

infil is not only awesome as a player but also as a person :)

[@nostramotv7535]

fighting games are worth more attention

[@drzero7]

So the Tekken God Knee and KOF God MadKOF are going to try at SFV? interesting.

[@thetylife]

Love this ! 'Cribs' FGC style baby !!! Champagne and caviar ........not so much. If any pro fighter is in this just for the money, they would quit immediately after watching how even the best player lives lol. I would love to see one of these with Kazunoko. Much respect to Infil. . Infiltration IS Life indeed.....

[@AceHatake]

Really nice. Very good job on the interview. Does infiltration have a day job? Or does he live of playing SF ?

[@deathstar1389]

He wins Evo with Diago at the Tourney, maybe now people can give him some respect..

[@JasperXoR]

Great to see his personality in interview. Man that is some horrible ergonomics in his living space! I'd be visiting a chiropractor daily if I lived like that!

[@Xerxex02]

Alguien tiene novedades de su situación?

[@Mendosa666]

I really dig this, might we potentially see more interview videos like this?

[@MrRadioMM]

Please Core-A give to us more videos! Haha I was missing u! Great job man, I really like your work on KZbin, keep going good o/ Cheers.

[@wakeenmo2270]

so looking forward Daigo vs Infiltration matches

[@TrojanSalesmen1]

I love Infiltration... dude is so cool!

[@_DoctorStantz_]

The futon looks more comfy than the sleeping area.

[@bananabutt9799]

That was awesome. I thought maybe I'm bad at Sf but now i see even pros struggle with survival! XD That's awesome tho.

[@liquidpersuasion]

it looks like he lives outside of seoul, or somewhere on the outskirts.

[@legendaryhero90]

it'd be cool to see this guy on running man with the starcraft players. is he and kwang soo about the same age?

[@TonyTarantula]

Top chap. I wonder how many Dive Kicks and Demon Flips this guy has landed in his life.

[@JCOdrjones]

Probably some on the wife he beat

[@andysama1601]

Great interview guys !

[@Saintmadman]

Great interview! You've got yourself a new subscriber!

[@TheJungaBoon]

That intro made me think Woolie was going to open the door and welcome him in

[@thetonebox]

":I go to the lab and I study player tendencies . . .so when I meet them, it doesn't feel unfamiliar. . ." damn, Inf, you right. . . I used to go hard in 3s JUST for the paradigm shifts. .

[@TonyBlundetto86]

When your mother says you won't get rich playing videogames, show her this and she will cut your "i want to be a pro gamer when i am an adult" shit. I really admire him though, doing what he loves the most, not for money but for passion. Such a lonely lifestyle, but he seems to be happy. Long times with the community on the internet and such, but full time student: Every player he will encounter, game update, move, hitbox, combo, etc must be studied to perfection. Not much of a social life in real life as it looks like, or that was my impression. Anyway, keep it real infiltration!

[@vryvader2623]

"Gaming is a way of life" Respect!

[@GatsuRage]

this was glorious! thanks :D

[@abelperez1434]

You forgot to show the bathroom lol. It's interesting to see how these players live.

[@ka7al958]

just like other people from what i've seen in this video,video games are just their jobs

[@abelperez1434]

+Ka 7al It does make me wonder though how they handle all there money. I would hope they can save for the future after their career is over.

[@iiDetour]

+Abel Perez im pretty sure most korean pro gamers do that. The lifespan of a pro gamer is not long so they have to save alot of money for when they transition to normal life. I wonder how much salary a SF player compared to league or starcraft

[@KingJaeTV]

Nice interview

[@HulksterInHeaven]

Great interview.

[@edgarup0]

the best!!

[@ThEfUcKiNgKiNg777]

That was amazing!

[@RomnysGonzalez]

Fridge Life. I feel your struggle Infiltration LOL

[@shiningwizard327]

Seriously, give us the damn colors!!! lol. But this was an interesting peek of Infiltration's life.

[@auggirangel8829]

I wish I could play competitively :( this takes skill and talent

[@blankblank7865]

gogogo infiltration 2017!! dae han min guk shibal!!

[@KhunShawn]

Nice editing man, you kept it from being boring

[@rosary1561]

Core-A Gaming, how does Infiltration use training mode to study player tendencies? He's said he uses training mode the most, but how does he use it?

[@paulcu8939]

i respect his grind

[@shakzldn]

Wow. Respect.

[@joobels2712]

You should have asked him for tips on the Wife matchup. I always struggle with that one but this guy is apparently an expert at dealing with her when she spams cry and cancels it into 911 call when you've almost got her down.

[@Gerrrden]

I love this channel

[@SuperiorWare]

Infiltration knows that nash is dam near the best character in the game.

[@Piercingthesky1]

Where can I watch Street Fighter Crash or even check the results?

[@idaelisabethvonachen7997]

Think Twitch will stream it this Sunday . 2 pm korea time.

[@views-pm8jn]

i love this guy

[@juancarlosrojinegro]

Eres mi ídolo Infiltration

[@BlackMasamuneX]

You do interviews now?

[@johndee759]

Well deserved. I am I the only one who thinks this comment is disrespectful to his former teammate? Infiltration, though the win was all his, should have shared the stage with Fuudo. Infiltration shook his hand and then let fuudo leave the stage as a big loser. Infiltration could have been very classy. As a team manager I would have talked to him about this action. Infiltration has to thank Razer a lot. Does he remember those times when he had to pay out of his own pocket for all his travel? I know in his heart he is not like this. Generally, I want to see the camaraderie of teammates. Infiltration you worked so hard for all this. Always remember where you come from. I remember when you were with western wolves you said in an interview you would hate to face a fellow teammate. Remember those times.

[@fightingforce8498]

you're really a best and smart street fighter player infiltration. keep working hard man. ✌😎

[@Spootah12]

im glad a pro gamer feels the same way about survival i thought like wow how am i so good online but can't beat the damn computer

[@sangjeongkimcho293]

THE 3% EXCEPTION TO THE RULE OF HIS SPECIES WHO ISN'T EXTREMELY SPACED OUT/DOES NOT SMILE/DOES NOT LAUGH/HAVE A DEMENTED 'honorific semnida now!' HE ALSO HAS A PRETTY CLASSY WAY WHEN HE LOST TO TOKIDO IN CEO SO HE'S FINE IN MY BOOK

[@OmniCloud987]

After doing Hell Mode, I concur, it’s just too much...At least make an Arcade mode and let us unlock colors though that.

[@sykim6327]

한국선수 영상인데 한글을 쓰는건 내가 최초가 되겟군. 이게 한국에서 스트리트파이터의 현실이다. 아직은 갈길이 멀다

[@marazo4210]

+sy kim 안타까운 현실입니다ㅠㅠ

[@CoreAGaming]

+sy kim 반갑습니다 ^^

[@godspeed6096]

yo can you talk about the bayo drama in sm4sh?

[@spaghetticode1622]

This is why i can only worship Lord Daigo. Not even all the salt in the sea can effect him emotionally. Lord Daigo feels no pain because he is pain.

[@MexicanUppercuts]

Empty fridge and freezer. I know that feel bro 😂

[@RealGhostHawk38]

I can’t believe one of my favorite players is actually relatable to me. I thought I was the only one who likes training mode more than online

[@markk217]

What a cute apartment

[@situationing]

Nice

[@Wladislav]

The ultimate training mode monster.

[@dikkebal]

even his refridgerator got nerfed. capcom pls

[@thelightseeker94]

That is the most compact living space I've ever seen. It must be very cheap to live there.

[@toasty5790]

+Jthe Lightseeker Probably expensive as fuck, I know places in Japan are similar and pricey too

[@legendaryhero90]

+Jthe Lightseeker its South Korea dude. It's probably hecka expensive.

[@BobbyBoushayy]

Napkins right next to his bed Lmfao! goin ham!

[@khjjhk9096]

i love infiltration yeah ^_^
