This entire match has been a joy to watch. GREAT UPLOAD!

[@BTDiLmarinen]

Zhi best commentator EVER. Adding random stuff into commenting instead of talking only about the game is what makes it special

[@Gonbebe]

Zhi and Xian, I've missed you guys. This is some of the best SF tournament play I've ever seen.

[@rainmaker_superb]

That was an AMAZING set. Xian has gone leaps and bounds with his Gen over the years. Incredible set.

[@Marceles45]

I've gotta say the commentary and the whole set were equally godlike. I enjoyed the whole thing. Knowledgeable and unbiased commentating, I saw things I've never seen before, close exciting set, Daigo and Xian respecting each other and giving their all, it seriously couldn't be any better unless the set reset so there would be more fighting

[@Alterma99]

by far the greatest matches i have seen thnx for uploading

[@TheZombie4u]

Whoa!!! That was AWESOME!!!! Tremendous matches, and some really great commentary!! Thanks for posting these videos!!

[@HeyLookaWildKaisu]

Incredible match and great commentary. Xian is rapidly becoming one of my favourite players, now.

[@carllinsao]

This has to be one of the best and most entertaining sets I've ever seen. Never thought Gen would be a part of it. Haha. Really looking forward to seeing Daigo and Xian at Evo.

[@YourEveryDayJackAss]

Mother of God, Xian's Gen has improved SO MUCH since the last time I saw him, proud of you Xian! *tear*

[@CanisDiris]

first time i had fun watching cross counter asia. good work. can't wait for evo.

[@JustAnswers359]

So freaking true! If it wasn't for him, I would've watched the stream on mute. His sense of humor is one of the best, his frame knowledge is just ridiculousness.. unbiased and very informative commentary ! Zhi for EVO !!!

[@MultiRuss31]

one can never forget, just how hype SSF AE can get. world class play in this video. thanks for the upload.

[@Zenju__]

What a fucking spectacle. This was incredible. This year's EVO is going to absolutely BURN!!!! Many props to Xian. I'm very happy for him now that he's starting to earn major titles more frequently. And this battle was even like I hadn't seen in ages.

[@Dishinshoryuken]

DOUBLE KO!!! We needs mores of thems in the big games.

[@Blackdragon79]

@iPotatos oh ok cool for a min it sounded like hate. damn good gen player. is the full set on youtube?

[@jeremysaint]

great videos, thank-you

[@kayele]

awsum job on this stream, very good very entertaining great graphics, everything

[@DarkKnightYoshi]

This was an awesome match, Xian and Daigo did great!

[@itzchangalang]

so glad i just finished pt 2! no waiting :D

[@thedirtypanda]

Great matches and i'm now excited for evo! Hell I might even start playing again. P.s. It isn't a good tournament till the mikes cut out at some point.

[@korendian]

extremely enjoyable set to watch

[@ZuTangClan]

It's still processing for my iPod!!! The suspense -:0

[@capanisalp3777]

Can anyone tell me whats the theme in the intro? I know it but cant give it a name..

[@n4styn8or]

zhi, you are way too gdlk. holy. shit. . i mean, this was some of the best gameplay i've seen... and the commentary was just as entertaining as the gameplay.

[@adnips]

I see 26 minutes so I expect a close, tense match of awesome Gen play, featuring Daigo, as they race to the end of the second half of the set.

[@BoMbxx1]

Where is the next tournament will be and what date ! anyone know that

[@C0nkeringS0uLz]

Hey @Halfdead305 and @whoskn; wouldn't Ultra II be better for the Ryu match up?

[@killzone23veteran]

thanks for the reply. now I want your opinion. how do you think Daigo will do at EVO?, also have you ever attended the event, as spectator?

[@Badyun03]

Love the intro !

[@xjangxjenix]

Congrats to Xian!! I was rooting for Daigo but I have deep respect for Xian and he is definetly one of my favorites to watch, he Gen is sick!

[@lorndarken]

what a great match , but i cant wait for the rematch

[@AcidGlow]

Great set. Looks like Xian got his revenge for the EVO 2011 Yun vs Yun match with Daigo.

[@TheLastHand]

It should be mandatory that all major tournament grand finals be first to 7 from now on.

[@JonathanLUNG]

This is just the best commentary. "That's like across the street man".

[@pspgosucks]

Yeah, It doesn't matter how he places in tournaments, I'm just happy to see him playing in tournaments again :)

[@NonRandomUser]

Great conclusion to the set! Would've loved a 7-6 nailbiter, but 7-5 is pretty damn good.

[@yumyumeatemup]

Damn! Dat Gen. Sooooooo excited for Xian's Gen at EVO.

[@YuriBo26]

Desde que o Xian largo o Yun ele se dedico tanto ao Gen que o Gen dele fico bom demais. Sempre gosto de ver as partidas dele e espero que ele se qualifique bem alto no EVO!

[@Jimbownage]

that opening music is amazing. please give me link for all your mp3 forms of the 8 bit awesomeness!!!

[@TrafalgarWakka]

Oh god, look at this awesome Mega Man style intro. T_T Too good guys!

[@pharohnintey]

Damn his gen is awesome and learning gen in my opinion is a true testament to dedication next to learning viper the most technical characters in the damn game kudos to both but HUGE shouts to xian man

[@rancidhotmail]

sweet ty for clarification

[@rwpla]

Two of the VERY best players in the world by far!

[@Shamerik]

What an absolute freakin nailbiter. Great stuff out of both players.

[@ArcadeTV1]

What a solid game of them. I liked it.

[@rGGdom]

who would you say its the best up to today?

[@shorty235z]

Anyone know if Xian is attending this year's Evo? Would be pretty insane to see his Gen in the finals.

[@ridgezero]

Great fight!

[@MonkeyRism]

daigo was in sinagpore last week?!

[@iloveediblestuff]

This totally makes up for the lack of video uploads.

[@xboxwiiplaypc]

Nunca vi um Gen tão mortífero,o tal do Xian joga de forma maestria,fenômeno.Daigo também com visão de jogo de gênio.

[@cacapupu1234]

this was awesome

[@KingAlex93]

This is so fun to watch when your eating! :D

[@Thegamekid83]

Whats the first between a Race to 7 and a First to 7

[@backseatdog]

Xian's Gen is amazing. He did a whole bunch of things I never seen before. The trade combo was sick.

[@redxmaverick]

It was reference to an earlier tournament Sanford Kelly vs Wolfkrone. Triforce was in the back yelling distracting Wolfkrone.

[@felipebrasil5]

15:19 why he burns 3 meters? wouldn´t be just 2?

[@StoneGamer420]

Good Stuff Xian!!!!!!! Gratz!!!!!

[@OneSicBunny82]

Sure is! God bless the lunch break :-)

[@szap1337]

im looking for a "match start" comment but i can't find it

[@MANTRIS101]

cant wait to see xian at evo!!! crazy gen!

[@MagnetiX]

Awesome, awesome match! Grats to Xian: best Gen in the world!

[@hadoshrooms]

That was some amazing fighting

[@rockleeownsu]

does anyone NOT know who the third person is?

[@bnobu]

Wow, Great Match

[@ChordN]

xian's gen is so damn sick!!..i didnt think he would reach this high of a level in such a short time!..just last year he couldnt even beat nekojita!

[@TheTigler]

why is @gootecks in the description?

[@daakrolb]

Anyone using Gen this well deserves mad respect. He's like 2 characters in one, and you have to switch them on the fly. Ryu is simple man's character.

[@NomineName]

daigo is a legend and one of the best sf4 prayers around theese days, but nothing more :P

[@BcdGavin]

Why did i missed out such an epic event!!!

[@YagoLoyal]

I could've cared less about who won.. great matches!

[@apokope666]

What an awesome fight.

[@Kryonus]

I said the exact same thing. Just too good matches. Watch these guys play all day.

[@shafshinji8081]

that looks like gackt behind xian encouraging him. Gackt before he became relatively known in the Street fighter world now. He alreayd made his mark now all he has to do is surpass the other Fei long players like Fuudo and Mago and then be the best SF player surpassing infiltration.

[@Cr1mSiR]

now this was an entertaining match, I was rooting for Daigo as always but Xian was very impressive here.

[@locanix]

good commentary!

[@DaShonuff]

I enjoyed this match :)

[@killzone23veteran]

wait so this means Daigo won't be at EVO 2012? please reply

[@phatbastard0alkaline]

I love their intro!

[@yashamaru61894]

Because he still is part of crosscounter!

[@Pandabearmadness]

im just curious before daigo would only use yun since ae came out, whats the story on him going back to ryu,

[@yuris00]

Xian is a great player btw. I look forward to his evo performance this year.

[@Volvagia]

Daigo's Ryu is fucking incredible and Xian's Gen holy shit, I can't wait for EVO now. HYPE.

[@T0R0RIKI]

EPIC !!! :D

[@cacapupu1234]

evo is going to be so crazy this year

[@yuris00]

THE BEAST IS UNLEASHED!

[@LiangHuBBB]

Great Gen play.

[@Zenju__]

No: they uploaded another video earlier announcing their coverage of this match.

[@Broodlurker]

Rare footage of Daigo having fun.

[@Karma3500]

woah, no hostility? i wasnt expecting that, thanks dude i hope you have a good day/night to man.

[@SRMi]

Nobody can dislike this, godlike.

[@NatsaryahTX]

Farewell yuris00. Live the rest of your days as a man of love and compassion.

[@Gigameth89]

If only all competitive level AE matches were like this. I'd probably watch it more often.

[@aimlesfez]

"I think Daigo has downloaded the ssf4ae auto-block gem pack". Oh Zhieeep you never cease to amaze me...

[@yELoHQ]

I respect Singapore crowds. To allow Daigo to not use NOISE CANCELLING Headphones in a tournament setting, unlike US tournaments. Big ups.

[@RogueCheepSheep]

Awesome stuff by Jay Chou... er, Xian.

[@doughboi54]

that intro was badass.. nuff said

[@MichaelTheeMike]

see part 1 and 2. this is part 3

[@AmilamtheAmicable]

Good commentating! Way to go Xian.
