THIS PLAYER MADE ALEX IN THIRD STRIKE LOOK LIKE A TOP TIER

So, we all know that Alex in Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike is one of the few bottom tier characters in the entire cast, but this player here made him look GDLK! As a lover of low tiers here, I can always appreciate players who play their low tier mains VERY well.

Much respect to the Alex player there. Chun is borderline-broken in this game, so to do that well is impressive.

[@aymen_b1267]

She is good but not broken, it's hard to play around her that's all.

[@ilyrich]

@@aymen_b1267 they clearly say “borderline” nobody said she’s broken

[@TheImperiousRyan]

@@aymen_b1267 She has far too many tools. Fast walk speed, hit-confirmable super, high damage, kara-throws, etc. She and Yun are in a class or their own in this game.

I've always loved Alex. It made sense that Capcom would make their "main character" in "Third Strike" a wrestler because of the uber popularity of the WWF/WCW at the time. He's fun to watch and you root for the lower tier.

[@sidjustice5742]

he´s supposed to be hulk hogan in japan...but lmfao he moves fast and has the powerbomb..so why they though of hogan and not sid vicious/justice is beyond me lmfao

[@yes4me]

As an Alex player myself, that combination at 8:12 was hot. Playing against Chun Li is a very VERY up hill battle. There are a lot of moves that do not work on Chun Li. Even getting to 4-4 is already amazing.

[@johnnyace2287]

Wow. He should be very proud of himself.

“You aint doin it! No more parries in 2022” I lold. Its nice to see him in good humor

[@alextorres8635]

I wanted to tell you this live on your stream the other day (Cogzero) And just want to say that the reason you're easily my favorite guy to watch play fighting games is that you are the kind of player that I think anyone with enthusiasm, love for fighting games, and dedication can become. I see a player like Diago and I can't help but be put off by his style, but when I see YOU play bro, it's like watching someone play LIKE I WOULD play. Taking gambles, reading your opponent, making in-game adjustments, playing smart, and playing dangerous when you want to get lucky. All of these things I feel anyone can get good at and once upon a time, I was back in the Bronx, making guys spit out quarters just like this but I never got a chance to go down the road of FGC competitor. If I had to choose between being Diago or being you, I'd choose YOU bro, because you LOVE this shit. You play like a man that loves the GAME, and doesn't just like to win. I appreciate that and I am absolutely a lifelong fan. I hope you get to read this man. You are awesome.

[@vahnsose]

That Headbutt command grab finish was EMOTIONAL DAMAGE

[@phantomspaceman]

He did it twice too, that choke out.

[@0complete10]

Something about Alex makes him such a fun and satisfying character to play.

[@MaskedGuyCh]

Really like the sound effects being edited in. Such a simple but effective way to make a set more entertaining to watch 😄

[@franciscogomez4382]

always enjoy watching Justin and Smug...win or lose they have fun! also unlike other players, they don't edit when they get washed.

[@r1konTheAutomator]

0:41 - I was like "hmm I wonder who he means" and then you said HolDat - bruh. He's the best Alex I've ever seen. I love watching him play!

[@phantomspaceman]

Watching him miss those command throws in the last round hurt.

[@Dr.Ruffles]

I'm currently c rank thanks to Alex and been at 3rd strike for the past 4 years.... Revival81 my guy..... you are an inspiration to be able to go toe to toe with justin. Imma learn from you.

Props to anyone holding it down with Alex in 3S. Now with that said: Hokuto no Ken 👀👀👀

[@SNK-Isla]

WTF ese Alex? Estaba pero terriblemente solido XD , aparte , siempre es tan agradable ver personajes asi y no a los tipicos Yun , Oro , Urien o Ken. Grandes combates sin lugar a dudas.

[@tcchip]

That really is some masterful Alex playing. Alex is my favorite ever SF character. I didn't get SFV until Alex was released, and he's my main (but boy did I suffer for it. My second main, Bison generally does a lot better than Alex). Granted, Alex in SFV isn't exactly top tier either (though the final patch has done wonders for him), but he's at least a lot of fun to play, and at least now we're in an era where there's plenty of channels and resources to learn from, starting with Gunfight and Twisted Rivera.

Great to see Alex, one of my favorite characters and awesome set- down to the last pixels of health. So many awesome characters and fun to play characters from SF3 like Dudley, Necro, Q, Hugo and it seems like every character in Third Strike is fun and a bit different with several super arts to choose from.

I love grapplers & I want to get into third strike again. I used to play it when I was younger & would use the shoto characters. But I’ve grown ALOT since then. Being a kid/teen, to now having 3 kids myself. I don’t play the same anymore. I’ve gravitated from playing more flashy, more combo heavy- to more of a damage focused fundamentalist. I’ve grown to love grappler characters, I found a love for King in Tekken 7 & I winded up picking up Zangief in SFV. I want to play 3rd strike but there’s no Zangief & Hugo is so damn Wonky big, I want to learn Alex but every comment says how bad he is. I guess I’m a masochist
