SSF4: AE - Ryan Hart vs EG PR Balrog - Grand Finals - Final Round 17

[@5crownsoutreach]

I always enjoy these two commentators. Their knowledge of the Street Fighter characters, abilities, hit boxes, supers/ultras is simply immaculate. They aren't just watching and saying something, they are providing insightful commentary.

[@FIEND-671]

James Chen is quite possibly the worst commentator in FGC history

[@bruzukamente]

Ladies and Gentleman after all this years i can say for sure, this same game is a real masterpiece from fighting games, and i think no one other will be so fun so good like this.

[@RetroReset]

Facts!

[@diddykv]

If I'm correct, Ryan was almost sent to losers by a Balrog player on the first day pools - was saved by an execution error. Than almost lost second game against Infiltration - was saved by another execution error, but in this case he could of course win the third match. Still it's actually kinda crazy that he won the tourney. If life gives Ryan the opportunity, he sure will make the most out of it.

[@fidenemini4413]

that was Ryan vs Wolfkrone, hilarious moment

[@bedavelli]

Feels good to watch a bro from the UK win with OG as Hell Sagat plays

[@AdlerSchwadron]

watching this after V got released.

[@valdvald5896]

V just doesn't compare 😢

[@Lpedraja2002]

PR Rog isn't as strategic as he used to be his playstyle is way more aggresive which has worked well for him but given he needed to win 6 freaking times he should have changed his play style. Ryan figured him out and he still went for the aggresive brawler. I remember his legendary fight against Tokido years ago and how patient he was on that fight. Still, he beat Infiltration and that is no easy feat.

[@tommymoodie2157]

To be fair, Ryan Hart wasn't playing his usual playstyle in the first set either. Ryan is an extremely aggressive player. He tries to drive fear into his opponents with his aggression. You should see that in this match. In the entire first set Ryan didn't even win a round because he was playing the waiting game. When he realized that wasn't working, he just did what he normally does and uses ruthless aggression. That gave him an instant change. Im NOT saying that PR Rog had now chance of beating him. I'm just saying that neither player was using their native style. If Ryan needed to win 6 times. He might have just not even bother with the waiting game.

[@megamishinseix7816]

Tommy Moodie Interesting that im not the only one watching these videos and checking out old comments lol

[@Fernandeskonsam]

Anyone in 2024? Im here again just to see the last set its one of the intense match in the history of SF. I JUST LOVE TO SEE RYAN PLAY i watch his match repeatedly for many time cause i learn a lotta stuffs by watching him. RYAN HART IS A LEGEND in these Fighting games genre 💯. ❤🔥❤️

[@blackspiraldancer6]

Regardless of the outcome, pr rog is incredible to watch.

[@loco3514]

Yeah, the salt on his face every time he loses is incredible to watch.

My fighting game money!

[@SuntoryKick]

One of the best examples of adapting in Street Fighter that I've seen. Still great to watch.

[@Massacretalitor]

Ryan really deserved this win. Great recovery!

Miss these glory days so much...

[@tray5317]

yes

[@similaritiesendhere]

I'm not a SF4 fan, but the game makes for some intense videos and great stories like this Ryan Hart comeback revenge for last year.

[@Rhand75]

man that was amazing to watch, well done Ryan. Crazy crazy Balrog skills that first set though, Ed just dominated that first set, near flawless gameplay. Ryan felt like the underdog the entire match even though he was coming from winner's bracket.

[@yahoo1o1]

No one is saying anything about SAGAT actually winning his first major since Vanilla!! 2010!!

[@flowdnslapo]

topanga league A ?

[@yahoo1o1]

karmaa nova I meant more of a tournament setting done in a weekend, not a league setting where you know ahead of time who youre playing and can practise for. Sagat hasnt won one of these majors in years

[@hatchumo6243]

Well Sagat and Yun... Sagat definitely didn't win it alone

[@GETURHANDSUP916]

Do the tournaments in the UK count as majors? I have heard that Ryan Hart wins a lot of those.

[@MrHungrySimon]

And let's not forget Bonchan winning Topanga league.

[@Fernandeskonsam]

He was analysing and knowing/learning the strategy of the opponent in the Beginning sets. And hell yeah!! That's a great-great COMEBACK. Turning defensive to Offensive mode , THAT'S CRAZY- INSANE !! 🔥🔥 RYAN THE GOAT- THE LEGEND ❤❤❤ I GOT MASSIVE-MASSIVE LOVE AND RESPECT FOR HIM❤

[@electronsauce]

Every time I read a fortune cookie, I do it in James Chen's voice

[@Shozuki]

Bringing it home, Ryan! Nice one!

[@ihsahnakerfeldt2765]

I like how Ryan Heart adapted to PR's reactions to fireballs and started baiting in the forward dash to nail him with uppercuts

[@backseatdog]

Lol Fight Night leveled up KBrad and now Ryan Hart.

[@TheBearrish]

What are you talking about?

[@BenM7md]

glad for ryan , he deserved to win , seems like a kind guy though , god bless him. ugh man i miss the greatest fighting game ever. usf4 for life.

[@shreyans167]

what a come back...

[@IIGATEII]

what a choke lol

[@mayakashiii]

Ryan really deserved to win, what a hard worker he is.

[@MadSnake123]

Ryan Hart is an amazing player, i really hope he get's more participation in the upcoming tournaments, he wasn't that good on the SXSW tournament but he definitely has the skills to take on the bests, hopefully he will have a great EVO and a great Capcom Cup.

[@bucchakei]

I'm not a particular fan of ryan hart, but I'm glad he got over his 2nd place streak at such a big event. He always seems to clam up against the top competition, but he was clearly able to overcome that this time.

[@alsoknownas875]

Duuuuuude...those were some hype-ass matches. Holy shit.

[@tonsoffun]

Incredible match. PR Balrog was the player that made me strive to learn charge characters. Though i could never play Balrog myself, watching him i grasped the concept and ended up with Vega as my main. Before that i was a proud Ken player through and through x]

[@_-4232]

Man like Ryan hart👏💪

[@manueltroche2405]

This street fighter it's better than the last street fighter game period

[@MaD-_-HaX]

Can I like this more than once please? What a great match, well played Ryan what a come back!

[@chillbro2275]

Great Grand finals. PR Rog came out on fire. And then Ryan turned it up. man this was so much fun

[@goukigod]

That last round... goosebumps!

[@superscyan]

THE MOST!!! Intense battle I've ever seen.

[@juanisaias8308]

I miss this so much

[@Brokout]

I took it for granted that every month or so there was a high level tournament like this, I WISH it was still going on, miss these days

[@ramongils]

Is Sagat OP dad? No son, that's what you call skills!

[@jonathanjariani6029]

Love both Balrog and Ryan. Amazing amazing players.

[@Lazysav]

I love watching PR Balrog play, but gotta give it up to Ryan Hart, great swing of momentum and rolled Rog back over

[@MrThewooter]

Didn't even know that Ryan was from the Uk, yet I was cheering him all the way though!

[@Panik-64]

hooowwwly shiet. ryan hart just never ceases to amaze me.

[@moonwhistle]

Very well played, a thoroughly deserved victory.

[@fozymilograno]

No Akumas or Ryus? OK, glad to be here!

[@protonjones54]

Infiltration finished third with Akuma.

[@frankderossi795]

I think balrog was inspired by Mike Tyson. They look quite similar.

[@frankderossi795]

***** I thought fei long was inspired by Bruce Lee, but anyway good to know...

[@kingfelipe12]

Franco de Rossi It's kind of the whole point. Balrog's name in Japan is M. Bison, as in "Mike Bison".

[@frankderossi795]

kingfelipe12 how uniquely Japanese.

[@frankderossi795]

kingfelipe12 sorry you mean Mike Tyson right?

[@tehrealenkai6961]

Frankie de Rossi The same year they gave him the name M.Bison was the year Mike Tyson had a rape scandal if im not mistaken.

[@BenGmanUk]

Awesome match nice one Ryan. Reppin the UK!

[@fireflocs]

Sagats seem to use the tiger knee so rarely. I wonder why. EDIT: I finished watching, and realized Hart started winning once he started using the knee. Take note, Sagat players.

[@noslopdx]

Very happy for Ryan Hart, if you're gonna win, that's the way to do it: by fighting hard for it.

[@MIka_The_Star]

PR just on another level in those first 3

[@TheGomezlord]

pure legends

[@FalconBoxe]

11:17 GODLIKE REACTION

[@protodevilin]

FUCK YEAH. That set was hype as fuck.

[@Harlec]

That was a GREAT set!!

[@bloodredblaze9794]

This match taught me a long time ago to use that crouching roundhouse all day against Sagat with Balrog. The Tiger Scrubs can't do shit when you learn that trick lol

[@jafal709]

Que campeonato maravilhoso, Ryan Hart consseguiu virar o jogo, mas EG PR Balrog jogou muito tambem.

[@KingNez89]

Dude is the very best Balrog I have ever seen in my life ever.

[@SodaPopinksi]

His name is pr BALROG.

[@noless]

Ha! Europe won. Good stuff Ryan

[@zuozuozhu9765]

What is wrong with PR Barlog?. It seems he always in great condition at the beginning and then collapse like a rocket~

[@loco3514]

Pr saltrog again hahahah. Louzy handshake looking away

[@vergil9005]

Makes me want to pick up SF again!

[@SSGKingEZ]

PR Balrog should have done more over head's you seen in the last match he did it and it worked perfectly I normally see him do a lot of over heads but seems like he was playing to safe but great matches

[@TheTeFaj]

Ryan Hart is an amazing player deserved the win imo, but Pr Rog was unlcuky great showing from him

[@WilliamPetersen01]

Watching this way after SFV Arcade Edition got released.

[@khaluu2000]

Woo they were just going at it!

Nicely done Ryan!

[@israelhernandez3413]

Ryan took his sweet time, but I give him credit for sticking with Sagat and coming back;.

[@david-nz2mg]

Que buen regreso

[@kkane212000]

Good stuff Ryan

[@LeejunFin]

Thing is, Ryan Hart had to play quite loose and random to win, I also main Sagat and I feel he's not suited to playing the game the way his character was designed. Zoning + footsies = Bodied. Aggressive risks and reactions = Winning.

[@murphboys]

i like pr rogs rog so much more than evil ryu, idk but he should keep playing rog.

[@Peetizzle]

good job ryan!

[@josealfredoandrade407]

Great game!!!

aprendeu rápido contra akuma n escolha sagat boa ryan em escolher yun desta vez, krai Balrog joga muito vi a evo 2012,2013.

Could not help but read the dam comments before the video :(( And LOL Sagat @ 13:30 has to search for his opponent due to his one eye and then Ultra lmao
