Street Fighter 4: Daigo (Ryu) vs. Arturo Sanchez (Dhalsim) | Evo 2009 Flashback

📕 : ➡︎ geni.us/daigo-book
Evo is on the horizon and we're diggin' deep into the vault with this flashback from Evo 2009.
Arturo Sanchez, @nycfurby, a master of Dhalsim's fire-breathing yoga even back then, squared off against the legendary Daigo "The Beast" Umehara, the master of Ryu's unyielding spirit, in a titanic First to 10 showdown in SF4.
Shortly after defeating Justin Wong in the Street Fighter 4 Grand Finals at the Evolution Championship Series tournament, The Beast made his way up to room 1676, where the strongest players outside of Japan lined up to money match him.
Experience the raw intensity and nerve-wracking moments that defined this iconic showdown. The video serves not just as a chronicle of a classic face-off but also as a reminder of what the FGC is all about.

Wow everyone in their 30s just felt this nostalgia gem of a video

This will always be peak Street Fighter for me. Absolute golden era.

When the game wasn't even a year old is the peak for you?? The peak for me was probably Stunfest 2015 Grand Finals Daigo vs Momochi.

⁠@@bestsnowboarderuknowyeah that was sick, daigo evil ryu was park SF imo. Daigo ER vs Infiltration capcom cup 2015 was incredible.

I don't think any FG will ever top IV in terms of hype. It was so exciting. Such a rebirth

[@crosscountertv]

I don't miss the game itself, but it was a truly exciting time

More to come!

Hype AF I love the old days recording the TV with your camera and then the reaction of the crowd so good

[@lejonhanen]

Flashbacks of me with my boys back in 09 when i came over to my friends house with my bike, always late to the party having to watch from outside as they finish their match before letting me in. Then we'd just play for hours❤

[@mariotaz]

Great video

[@jareds6717]

Hey, Gootecks. Haven't seen any new live videos on KZbin. Hope you are well and having fun grinding SFVI. I was rewatching your MvCi videos (featuring JWonggg) with my nephews because they have discovered MvC3 and MvCi. We watched the whole series while playing the games. Cross Counter still going strong and entertaining and educating the youth (and the old heads). Take care, bro.

[@320speed]

Iconic feels.

[@320speed]

So sick

[@siSixEight]

Keep going Gootecks! Find a way!!!

[@ap_po]

i dont care what people say, i still prefer this pacing and gameplay more then what v and 6 brought to the table. hopefully it will get a revival via game bundle and updated netcode for modern consoles.

[@crosscountertv]

when you put it that way, we're only a year away from the 15th anniversary of SF4 lol. so i'm sure by 2029 we'll have The Ultimate Street Fighter 4 Collection with everything including omega mode lol

[@ap_po]

@@crosscountertv maybe they add violent ken as a extra :p

[@justingoers]

@@crosscountertvthat would be so sick

[@AIKnowYou]

I'm an 09er (though I casually played SF2 growing up), and SF4 will forever have a special place in my heart. I do agree the pacing was good and different in SF4, and for example Sim was still Sim, not a rushdown character. That being said, I think Capcom did an amazing job with SF6 even just strictly gameplay-wise. It can get overwhelming sometimes since the Drive system adds another layer you have to be aware of at all times. But overall, I do find it extremely fun. The giant cherry on top is that everyone's viable, and the worst matchups aren't as bad as they've been in the past. So while I will miss the SF4 era, I can accept it is gone. Let SF6 take over and let some little kid win $1,000,000.

[@TheRealSorav]

@@AIKnowYou Look at how Melee players still play their 20 year old game and support it and take inspiration from that. Just because a game is old doesn't mean you have to let it die. Get your friends together, play together, have a good time. The community makes the game special, not its age

[@svpcharls]

AAAHHHHH the "salty suites!" I used to live for these, staying up late to see if anyone was streaming or looking for posts on yt. Plus I'm on eastern time so you know I was up late.
