USFIV: MCZ Daigo Umehara vs AVM Gamerbee - NCR 2015 Grand Final - CPT 2015

[@IMangame]

Daily reminder: Daigo is the best SFIV player of all time.

[@mcmugget]

Ryu Lord lets see if its on the board.... TOKIDO. BRRRP

[@Cr1mSiR]

Survey says.... EEEGGHHHHH.

[@cesarbrenes9184]

Tech Tec Tokido got bodied by Daigo multiple times.

[@stolensentience]

@@mcmugget lol tokido literally cried when he finally beat daigo in a long set. And it took sfv to accomplish that

[@thizz707gr]

Sorry but infiltration is the best sf4 player

[@ProRican09]

Daigo bodied everyone at this tourney. Not just handily beat them, but ran a train on them. Nice to see him not pulling any punches this year.

[@solgen9]

Christian Rivera that's not even an exaggeration, he mad everyone look free!

[@gamezob]

solgen9 So much freedom

[@makkymokky]

lets not forget he did badly at the SXSW tourney, the Redbull Kumite tourney and the Final Round 18 tourney .... but nvrtheless, good to see Daigo return to form in this tourney.

[@ProRican09]

makkymokky He wasnt at the Kumite tourney.

[@makkymokky]

Christian Rivera Yes he was .... he lost to Bonchan's Ryu and a few other player.

[@SoraAXS]

Daigo's face after win $120k ._.

[@snypedowne6195]

The 120k is the capcom cup prize

[@TurnOntheBrightLights.]

Sora AXS Daigos face for everything -__-

[@Pizza_Man_]

You mean that the won 120.000$?

[@Apemopo]

Sora AXS "oh hey, good game, bruce. caash munny..."

[@180223]

Sora AXS For Daigo....it was Tuesday

[@CatSkinCap]

This has been one of the most entertaining tournaments to watch, especially with the commentary by Seth Killian and James Chen.

[@JeT7RuL]

Mago crushes Hypespotting, Tokido comes scond, and now Daigo crushes NorCal. The age of the MadCatz is upon us again.

[@AdvancedSniperr]

***** you mean mcz of momochi? lol

[@wildwest1832]

Jet DreamTim sponsored players have some advantages over most players that are not. so not that surprising they tend do well at tournaments.

[@JeT7RuL]

Wild West Well almost all top players are sponsored. But these three have been some of the very best, and the three of them are tearing shit up again.

[@t4d0W]

Too bad the miracle run couldn't be sustained. Bruce kept himself alive long enough in losers only to open the door to grand finals... to see the Beast waiting for him.

[@ProudSF]

Daigo's called the beast for a reason

[@LionheartMindExplosion]

Daigo see's Gamerbee's pattern so clearly that I don't think he was trying that hard to be honest.

[@Wladislav]

Lionheart Mind Explosion 801 Strider on his second attempt was the only one to push Daigo to show his full potential this tournament.

[@LionheartMindExplosion]

Wladislav It was pretty amazing to see just how much Daigo was holding back, rill as you said 801 forced him show his true power

[@azuresaiyan9005]

Lionheart Mind Explosion Momochi did as well at Stunfest.

[@Wladislav]

***** Nobody was holding back at Stunfest.

[@LionheartMindExplosion]

***** Momochi definitely trained specially for Gamerbee but Daigo is a master of figuring out then breaking players patterns, when he beats Smug and Gamerbee in particular you can clearly see he's not outplaying them he just knows their patterns through and through, Daigo only does this insane amount of studying on players that are at the highest level and too hard to outplay.

[@azuresaiyan9005]

The crowd seemed almost dead.

[@gwvaio]

Hold on. We have to start demanding that these matches be shows in some type of order. Why would you post Grand Finals then post 8 matches that happened before it? Capcom Fighters

[@kiemul136]

Daigo doing some accounting..

[@demonsawakening]

Please upload the discarded matches in top 16 also, they are still good references. Thanks

[@anthonythemaster4609]

Daigos Reactions during matches Happy - 😶 Sad - 😶 Excited - 😶 Angry - 😶 Frustrated - 😶

[@Nnamz]

Daigo almost always has Gamerbee's number...

[@MrMario65]

***** i came after watching him lose... at evo 2015.. bruh

[@BankAlexander]

Fredrick Lucero bruhhh... gamerbee better make it count. he potentially robbed us of guaranteed hypest top 8 rounds by packing up daigo. Daigo vs Misse FT8? dreams.

[@BankAlexander]

and he did! the shit was craaazy. not his Elena vs Infiltration though that was the hardest match I've ever had to watch. gg Infil. well done gamerbee

[@shorty235z]

+Nnamz Until Gamerbee picked Elena against Daigo at Evo... Healing Healing Healing Healing!

[@azuresaiyan9005]

+ecwolf Even then, Daigo is still Gamerbee's demon. Gamerbee literally only got lucky in that encounter.

[@StoicLoneWolf380]

After watching this live, Daigo made NCR look like a clinic. Bodied everyone and didn't lose one match. MCZ held it down that weekend with Mago and Tokido coming in 1st and 2nd at Hypespotting.

[@MikeP]

Daigo keeps getting better and better! Its impressive!

[@Team99Hits]

2020 and I still watching grand finals of USFIV to remember the hype and fun

[@stolensentience]

2021. Same.

[@maverick974]

Sf4 was so much better to watch. Here's hoping sf6 is a good one.

[@iishyxvietxboyii1]

@@maverick974 SF6 looks too identical to SF5.

[@diomilmontesdeoca5815]

Daigo really dominated this game, too bad he never got to win Capcom cup

BEAST 4 LIFE

[@Bahamuttiamat]

Beast!!

[@josephornelas942]

I was going for GamerBee, but man, The Beast showed up at this tournament. He was bodying everyone.

[@zerozano]

I like the handshake, I feel like I didn't see that kind of sportsmanship much.

[@zetadroid]

Only a beast can buffer a tatsu in st lp.

[@fatJL2000]

[@Un1234l]

Not Harvard Material It's not a hit-confirm: it's a damn option select. Buffer st.LP into L Tatsu. Just like cr.MK xx Hadouken.

[@fatJL2000]

Un1234l ok don't bike me

[@cheetosortiz2783]

Daigo is not just the final boss. He is the true final boss. Got to make it through the second loop to have a chance to fight him.

[@D3athW1ng]

damn everyone felt the hand of the Beast in this one ...

[@hcnuup]

Maybe I haven't been paying attention to it in other matches, but Daigo just linked a random ass jab counter to a tatsumaki? That's fucking nuts.

[@audricdecastro5500]

Way better commentary than cameraman.

[@azuresaiyan9005]

Real talk, that guy's commentary is straight up trash.

[@AsianDuDeGuY]

Saw that GamerBee was goin' to Grand Finals against Daigo. Saw the 7 minute video time. The Beast is unleashed.

[@ryanfairweather8180]

Glad to see him win this. I know he's been doing this a while but, dude, do like a teeth baring smile when you win. What is your mental dialogue Daigo?

[@arthilex]

Daigo el mejor jugador de esto tiempo - su concentracion y frialda lo hacen un jugador Bestial xD

[@alsoknownas875]

[@azuresaiyan9005]

Cau Amado The bracket reset earlier killed the hype. I don't blame them.

[@bbotley]

its ok Gamerbee! your still awesome

[@stevengarcia613]

Funny how some people think tokido is better...but if you think about it who’s won more fights...Who’s done the impossible Daigo...who’s able to do a 25Hit combo without breaking a sweat...ya not tokido, plus Daigo & Tokido have fought so many times and Daigo has bodied Tokido way more times!

[@wildwest1832]

daigo was hands down the best SF player in the entire sf 4 era without any doubt. He consistently won or was in the top 8 more then anyone else.

[@caffeine150]

how do you do the quick rise?

Here comessss Daigo - boom

[@eulerss7]

Unleash the beast

[@hamzaa.8082]

I like hoe James imagine a monologue for a player and just speak of him :D

[@TrueUnderDawgGaming]

Daigo did really good at this tournament. I just wish he looked like he was having more fun. I think that's the reason he doesn't get much cheering from the crowd. He literally has no charisma at all. It's just like a job for him. Which is sad because, as a job, it doesn't pay well at all. Might as well have fun with it :/

[@metaminerx]

TrueUnderDawgGaming he does that off camera. he is actually laughing and having fun when he isnt in the beast mode.

[@BieberSucksCock100]

TrueUnderDawgGaming He's always been like that, that's pretty much how he built his reputation. He was just stone faced as he destroyed competition. Doesn't indicate whether or not he's having fun. Excluding the massive amounts of money he has won from tournaments over the years, the guy has a bazzilion sponsers, book deals, you name it, in Japan. He's loaded. He said before in an interview that he doesn't need the financial boost from tournaments anymore and hasn't for years because of how famous he is over in Japan. The reason he still comes to tournaments is because he enjoys them. I can't remember exactly how much he earns per year (there was a rough number floating around somewhere) but it's waaaaaaaay above the average job, purely because his name/face is attached to so many things.

[@TrueUnderDawgGaming]

BieberSucksCock100 You're misinformed. Daigo works as a nurse because tournament players make very, very little. Even the highest paid FG players don't make enough to quit their day-job. They all play in tournaments for fun and some extra money. The most money that's ever been offered is the next Capcom Cup where they will give out $500,000. Before that, the most you could make was around $50,000. Which is barely above minimum wage if that's all you do. Plus, it usually ends up split between the finalists in the end. When he talked about his financial situation, he most likely meant the money he makes as a nurse. As for sponsors, you usually only get to have one at a time. Like Tiger Woods, for example, has Nike.

[@BieberSucksCock100]

TrueUnderDawgGaming Daigo stopped working as a nurse years ago. The last he spoke of his job was in a 2010 interview that you can find somewhere here on youtube, he said he worked in welfare. Sankei biz (a very popular newspaper in Japan) mentioned him in an article about the growth of gaming as a profession in 2014, and stated that according to several people in the business he makes well over $150k a year. Other than his tournament cash, this includes money from his sponsor deals (I assume the bulk comes from this because he was and still is basically the face of madcatz gaming), his successful book, the many times Japanese arcadia magazine (and other magazines) have published articles and DVDs of his matches, and the numerous appearances he makes on Japanese television because he's both the first ever pro Japanese gamer and the most successful SF player of all time. As for his current occupation, I believe he writes articles about gaming, although I'm not 100% sure. He certainly doesn't do this as a job anymore though, and hasn't for a while. If you dig around you can probably find more, but he's definitely a pretty wealthy guy.

[@TrueUnderDawgGaming]

BieberSucksCock100 Every article I just looked up states that he only made around $20,000 from sponsorships and tournaments last year. He may have a lot of sponsors, but they are for rather unpopular things. So, they probably don't pay that well. Honestly, sponsors use players to make money, not to make their players wealthy. Even I'm sponsored for my KZbin channel, but I make nothing compared to what my sponsors make. That's just the way it works. Plus, it's probably even worse in Japan because of how they marginalize a profit due to their economic system..
