I love how the commentator said "Let's go, Justin!" when Hayao started parrying Justin's super.

[@carlosaugusto9821]

Because in the jp fgc, this action of full parrying a point blank Chun Li's super 2 is traditionally called "let's go Justin". I've heard different people saying it.

Man, mad foreshadowing out of Justin, here. The out of pocket 720 confirms, and even the "useless" standing HK oki at 7:27 being integral and clearing the round. Hayao was truly *on* some shit.

[@keronstewart9446]

the real BS is that he should have not been able to use a crouch kick at 7:12 as a buffer to do do gigas breaker. the frames are far too short. alex yes, but not hugo. not to mention chun WAS STILL TECHNICALLY AIRBORNE when he did it! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

The fact that my man Hayao went from not jumping at all to jump city on SA2 was ridiculous.

Nothing scarier than a patient Hugo player.

That grab at 11:55, I think I woke up my whole building screaming "WHOAAAA HAHAHAHA MY GOOOOOD" that was nuts

[@zackbalins658]

Great video. One of my favorite things about you JW is you give props to other great players and even just good players. Alot of fighting game players will never do this. Thanks man.

[@carlosaugusto9821]

I agree... but in this case Hayao is one of the 3S gods, and he is above Justin, so it's not that hard to compliment. It takes a very immature player to refuse compliment a 3S god. And at least from what ive seen i believe that when 3S players get in a certain superior rank they arent that much immature, jealous and salty about losses.

[@officegossip]

The parry was cool at 11:44 but the timing of it made it super impressive.

[@nestorgonzalez8021]

You can hear “Let’s go Justin” with laughter 🤣

[@vulpineboriqua]

[@carlosaugusto9821]

Finally the long awaited match against a 3S god of the highest possible ranks. Maybe it would be cool to keep track of how many different 3S gods you have fought recently. It's been great to follow this journey of facing fg gods in offline matches.

[@mechajintsu]

Bro! Thank you for this. Hayao is my favorite. Thanks for pointing out that even though Hayao is a 720 rocks star, he has godlike footsies and it’s part of the game plan against Chun especially crouching MK is mad far.

[@Harlec]

My man, I'm glad you feeling better and back with the uploads! I'm not a huge SFIII fan but this was actually very fun to watch.

[@aspreedacore]

@11:45 this is the most disrespectful parry i've ever seen, also his crossup 360's are insane

[@lhfirex]

Hayao is all over the 3rd STRIKE channel on youtube (not lately of course, because of EVO) so I've seen him make Chuns shit their pants for awhile. It's really fun seeing how the JP arcade players react to so many different matchups. And how so many of them play chars that aren't the top tier.

You can’t fight well for a 7-3 match like chun and huge. You’re just fighting normal.

[@jurgenolivieira1878]

Little did Justin know he would be the commentator when Hayao made the EVO Moment 38, 12 months later.

[@logicallydashing]

I love watching a good Hugo, and Hayao is the king of them all. Great set overall.

[@retrofraction]

The patience is strong with him

[@r1konTheAutomator]

11:45 - I always heard that everybody told you to throw an ex fireball first - the thing about the parry system in 3s is that it auto parries two hits if they are really close together. So he probably didn't have to do any extra inputs to make that work. Same reason why Remy's ex booms, which spits out two, only need to be parried standing once. So I think most likely that doesn't make it any harder. But..my man started the whole process with a red parry. A fuckin red parry.

[@alanfa3idan]

Love love love the retro content you produce Justin!

[@retro_jandro7530]

That was insane! Japanese players really know how to humble you lol.

[@Balthazar228]

Hayao must be running a butter business on the side, because that man be churning constantly. The fact that he can standing and walking 720 is downright terrifying with how patient he is

13:47 he buffered the first 360 inside that medium punch and did the other 240 on reaction. 3S is lenient enough with inputs that he could "store" the first half of Gigas for that long

playing the game via emulation, input lag and online is very different than playing it on an actual arcade board with crt monitor and no input lag. Especially the older fighting games suffer from this at high level play.

[@JackgarPrime]

Hayao is the Hugod. He makes Hugo look like a top tier. Goes to show that vibing with your character is what really matters.

[@CosmicRPG]

The rare Japanesse Hugo strike J Wong patience showing why J Wong hate Grapplers.

[@devilsephiroth9000]

Here's a little known fact about 3rd strike it's one of those if you know you know. Everyone knows about buffering in the game where you buffer a directional input before you press the button, but what is also a thing is you can save a buffer! Yes the game registers preloaded buffers, So @13:18 where Hugo magically 720 super without any buffer what hayao is doing is he's doing one 360 buffer, the game saves it and then does another 360 and presses punch, only then does the game recognize the super, this is called a standing 720 or 'standing gigas'. The game saved the first 360° input so when the 2nd was immediately entered it didn't count as a normal 360° throw. The 1st 360° input was during medium punch, the 2nd was during standing neutral position. Also pay attention in the gameplay whenever Chun-Li came close to Hugo with a full bar, you would notice Hugo slightly glitching moving left to right and ducking, that was Hayao inputting a 360° pre buffer, so that the next one would be a 720° if needed.

[@2ndFace666]

Another not well known fact is that you don't need to keep spinning in one direction. For example for a walking 720 You can go 8741236 hold 6 321478 release. As long as all cardinal directions are hit twice in the window, the game will register it as a "720".

[@Deamons64]

The second i saw hugo, i knew exactly who we were gonna see. Dude is insane. If i remember correctly he got a double perfect on Max once. (Edit: as a reply pointed out, the guy who doubled max was Onogai, my bad.)

[@TheFishman123]

lol, no that was onogai

[@spman2099]

I mean, Max is good at Third Strike, but he would still just be a glorified pot monster in a real tournament.
