Super Street Fighter 4 AE highlight reel: Kiryu Tsukimiya's Guy

Posted by Catalyst — June 15, 2011 at 3 a.m. PDT

Beehol, who's a gifted player in his own right, put together a Super Street Fighter 4 Arcade Edition highlights package for Kiryu Tsukimiya, who plays a mean Guy. All of these clips came from real matches, making the stuff pulled off even more impressive.

This guy is oldnews because @ the start in super he was beasting with his Guy. Im glad hes finally gettings some probs =)

DK_DOOM said on June 15, 2011 at 3:16 a.m.

His Guy looks legit, but bonus points to using Donkey Kong Country music in the video. =P

TheDeadTexan said on June 15, 2011 at 3:38 a.m.

I thought his hcf+p throw was gonna get a damage nerf. It still looks pretty beefy from what I saw it do to Adon.

SquidBiskets said on June 15, 2011 at 4:15 a.m.

I like the video because of the DK country music haha

SquidBiskets said on June 15, 2011 at 4:17 a.m.

and Skrillex :o nice.

Donkey Guy

kingofthesharks said on June 15, 2011 at 4:33 a.m.

We need more Guy players around. He's truly a fun character to watch. His mixups and corner pressure should go hand in hand with the general offensiveness increase of AE. Hope combofiend wins a lot more with him from now on.

btw if you recognize/love the Donkey Kong Country aquatic track at the beginning of the video, I played a piano version of the song a while ago if you wanna give it a listen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wi7TD_...

I don't understand how people like that 'music' during the second half. Sounds like goddamn car alarms.

Aikinage said on June 15, 2011 at 4:39 a.m.

^^ Nep, it's Dubstep baby, international Dubstep from the man like Skrillex. If you don't know, get to know (try 'Scary Monsters & Nice Sprites').

Skrillex did a massive gig with Deadmau5 in London last weekend, smashed it. Almost as much as Kiryu Tsukimya smashes it with Guy!

One thig I would say as a Guy player tho- don't try that at home kids. Guy has a very narrow range of combos, and it takes a lot of practice to be able to pick the right one on reaction.

But hey, that's Bushinryu for ya!

Nep said on June 15, 2011 at 4:46 a.m.

I could list about 5 reasons why the music is terrible and untalented, but I won't derail the comments section.

Aikinage said on June 15, 2011 at 4:49 a.m.

No please, grace us with your superior wisdom. Give us the '5 Reasons', Nep Sensei.

Nep said on June 15, 2011 at 4:58 a.m.

- It sounds like a symphony of car alarms, or optimus prime getting raped up the ass.
- "womp womp womp womp womp" - dubstep party, where everyone is too high or drunk to realise how terrible it is.
- I could become a dubstep millionaire by sitting at a computer pressing random buttons, and calling it music. Actually I will just hire a chimpanzee to do it.
- It is a remixed version of the natural communication methods used by glub monsters.
- WOMP WOMP WOMP WOMP WOMP. Wow, so much talent went into those WOMPs and bass! Autograph my glow stick!

#12

Nep said on June 15, 2011 at 4:58 a.m.

But the Guy video is pretty cool.

#13

Renewman said on June 15, 2011 at 5:08 a.m.

@#12

So, you really don't have a LEGITIMATE reason as to why it is terrible and untalented other than "optimus prime getting raped up the ass"? After all of that, you had me thinking you were some music major or something. Sheesh.

#14

Maladath said on June 15, 2011 at 5:14 a.m.

you can turn the music off if you don't like it, better then whining about it anyway

video was sick :)

#15

Nep said on June 15, 2011 at 5:17 a.m.

There are no legitimate reasons why anyone dislikes anything, everything is opinion. If I listened to some jpop-orchestral-metal-reggae-techno all-in-one weird ass song, there's no way it can be "legitimately terrible". To me, dubstep is just a completely random series of beats which don't have a rhythm, along with some exotic electronic effects that seem to stun and amaze people.

And if I asked you to give reasons why dubstep is a great music genre, you can't.

#16

FlawlessMatador said on June 15, 2011 at 5:32 a.m.

@16 Ending your post with that sentence makes it seem negative for dubstep. Everything has a balance in this world so I'll finish with this:

If I asked you to give reasons why dubstep is not a great music genre, you can't.

#17

JohnJack said on June 15, 2011 at 5:42 a.m.

I don't take much stock in these type of videos anymore after seeing Infiltration give Poongko a run for this money at a recent tournament. After seeing the many videos of the Poongko in action, I thought that he was a Seth god ... until he lost matches to Infiltration. It makes me wonder if some of these videos are cherry-picked.

"There are no legitimate reasons why anyone dislikes anything, everything is opinion"

Nope, "it sucks" is a legitimate reason to dislike it.

LordJim said on June 15, 2011 at 6:13 a.m.

@#18
Yes, a top 8 EVO finisher, second best player in Korea and one of the best Akumas overall is a random guy he is not supposed to lose to.
Sometimes, I really wonder how the heck you guys rank players in your mind.

#20

JohnJack said on June 15, 2011 at 6:18 a.m.

@20
I know Infiltration is good. However, after seeing PoongKo slaughter Mago in recent videos, I didn't expect Infiltration to give him any trouble.

JIHADJOE said on June 15, 2011 at 6:36 a.m.

Mmmmm Bullcat's Gouken at 3:20

#22

JIHADJOE said on June 15, 2011 at 6:38 a.m.

@21
Mago prolly didn't have Daigo aura when that happened. He turns totally beast when he's within range of The Beast. =P

#23

LordJim said on June 15, 2011 at 6:46 a.m.

@21
Top players beat each other often.
Not to mention different match-ups.
This logic does not apply. Or is Tokido non-eligible to beat Poongko cause he lost to Mago at times?

#24

paincanal said on June 15, 2011 at 7:02 a.m.

This is some top of the line Guy play. I really respect his skills to utilize the right moves at the right time.

But the music, oh the music. I can't imagine anyone listening to this music for pleasure, and I'll tell you why. It's bad enough that I have to listen to that Alvin and the Chipmunks song around Christmas. Why anyone would want to duplicate that experience by choice in their own home is something that I cannot grasp. I'm not even saying that it's devoid of technical skill or anything like that. Now, this genre of music may not be my cup of tea, but even if it was, this would be like someone painting a really nice picture and then deciding later to just draw a bunch of dicks all over it with finger paint.

Anyway, I'd like to see this "Guy" more. I'll have to look him up.

SabishiiRyuu said on June 15, 2011 at 7:19 a.m.

the amateurish video cropping made it impossibly annoying for me to watch it. Why the hell did he do it?

#26

SabishiiRyuu said on June 15, 2011 at 7:20 a.m.

Ignore my retarded comment above. It's just the embedded vid on EH doing that.

#27

cearbeartron said on June 15, 2011 at 7:32 a.m.

Ugh, all dubstep sound the same... you start up with som high-frequency tones and a extremely auto-tuned voice and then do a couple of drops into some low-frequency tones, preferably with a scream or something alike. The rest is just repeating what has already been played so that the song extends to somewhere between 4-5 min...

#25
someone who knows what I'm talking about

#28

mcfizzle said on June 15, 2011 at 7:36 a.m.

@ 21 infiltration has been waxing Poongo for a long time. It's always the two of them in the korea finals with Infiltration taking it.

#29

WinstonChurchill said on June 15, 2011 at 8:04 a.m.

Kiryu Tsukimiya is sick

F**k Skrillex and that brostep nonsense ha

#30

Relikk said on June 15, 2011 at 8:21 a.m.

Would have been better with game sounds and no music. Dubstep is garbage, anwyay.

#31

Grimmjow316 said on June 15, 2011 at 8:33 a.m.

Lol just about all music is terrible these days so it makes little difference saying dubstep is bad.

#32

roknin said on June 15, 2011 at 8:33 a.m.

Gotta' love all this random Dubstep hatred.

Anyhow, beastly Guy. I tried picking him up a while back but realized that I am not nearly skilled enough to make him look good, lol. Fun to watch, though.

#33

WinstonChurchill said on June 15, 2011 at 8:33 a.m.

Dubstep not garbage just all the bs used in sf movies, trailers and combo vids is ha. As usual when a genre gets a bit commercialised u tend to hear all the crap like skrillex, mt eden when really that's not even dubstep haha.

#34

Misty_Chaos said on June 15, 2011 at 8:39 a.m.

I'd rather have Dubstep then a rap song going on about bitches and hos, just saying. Then again, its a bit confusing that people are complaining about the music used than the actual content of the video.

As for the Guy player, amazing stuff, I'd probably be pretty free against him at my current skill level. I know that Guy is low tier and very hard to use properly and he makes it look easy, damn.

#35

WalrusKungFu said on June 15, 2011 at 8:48 a.m.

Noob question. Is he using a lot of frame traps? Is that what the pauses are in his offensive play. Just trying to get my terminology right :-)

#36

mcfizzle said on June 15, 2011 at 9:16 a.m.

he does the target combo and cancels into run stop. There is a bit of recovery on the run stop which is the pause but functions as a frame trap to keep the pressure on.

#37

Beehol said on June 15, 2011 at 9:35 a.m.

@36 Yes, a lot of frametraps. Especially against Bullcat. That's pretty much how he beat Bullcat in the above video.

#38

mcfizzle said on June 15, 2011 at 9:38 a.m.

I wish some of these character specialists we see in videos would show up to EVO. All it takes is a Gamerbee like performance for people to realize that an ignored character is very capable.

#39

PierceHinchon said on June 15, 2011 at 9:41 a.m.

Dubstep isn't really my style, I agree it's quite bad music. I think it requires some small talent for music, but other than that it's a load of bass. I can't say I've listened to a huge ammount of dubstep but it's played in every club here and people look retarded. Although the zelda lost woods dubstep remix is pretty good:P

#40

Shiranui said on June 15, 2011 at 9:42 a.m.

Kiryu runs at about 1 frame trap per second lol. Press a button at anytime and you lose half your health. Jump away, you lose half your health.

#41

ado said on June 15, 2011 at 9:57 a.m.

@41 i was about to say the same thing lol
counter hits galore jesus

also, am i the only one that ALWAYS gets hit with his flip to grab

#42

c_wong428 said on June 15, 2011 at 10:10 a.m.

drum and bass is superior dubstep is just kids and fags mashing crap, simply awful.

this guy is best on xboxlive I would say.

#43

WinstonChurchill said on June 15, 2011 at 10:15 a.m.

@#43 refer to #34 :D

JinZo said on June 15, 2011 at 10:24 a.m.

A _______ type of music is bad because I don't like it and I think everyone should agree with me because I feel the need to tell everyone about my opinions without necessarily caring for other people's opinions.

#45

MrPavy said on June 15, 2011 at 11:23 a.m.

^ its just peoples opinion, i think Rap sucks now since MOST OF THE SONGS involves the following-Drugs,Guns,women,how cool rapper is.thats my opinion

#48

samuraix025 said on June 15, 2011 at 3:18 p.m.

to answer #3's question in super the grab did 200 damage in AE it does 180, might not sound like much but in situation where it would have KO'd before it doesn't now.

#49

Aikinage said on June 15, 2011 at 3:29 p.m.

It makes me laugh that people can come to a forum like this and get all excited about the most advanced electronic games on the planet, but then hate on the most advanced electronic music on the planet at the same time!

If you think that 'serious' guitar-based bands (or any modern bands for that matter) are not using computer technology in their production, you are living in a fantasy. Different genres just make the presence of the computer element more or less obvious.

Anyway like the lobby song says: 'Get on the dancefloor'!

@49 - 180 is still hella big damage, the 20 points was a price worth paying for the buffs :)

#50

Beehol said on June 15, 2011 at 6:58 p.m.

#50 You're right. I think Guy is loads better now. He's even better at rushing down than before. His damage reduction on the Bushin Flip throw is not at all a big deal to me. :D

#51

Janitor4290 said on June 15, 2011 at 9:23 p.m.

The DK Country track made me enjoy this even more.

c_wong428 said on June 15, 2011 at 10:54 p.m.

yes but they are using electronics to make their music sound good, not awful.

i'm inspired to make my less than stellar Guy better. this dude was putting in serious work

#55

Raius1 said on June 16, 2011 at 11:47 a.m.

As a Guy player, I know the kind of execution you need to pull this sort of stuff off. All kinds of props.

#56

Garcian_Ulmeyda said on June 16, 2011 at 2:01 p.m.

@ Raius1
Same here the stuff here was sick especially since it was all done in match. Also the music was gdlk. Phuk the haters and your limited music view.

#57

BUTTLORD said on June 18, 2011 at 1:39 a.m.

I tell you one thing. Producing dubstep or any kind of electronic music for that matter, is not a question of just sitting at one's computer "pressing buttons". It requires a knowledge of computers, a knowledge of music theory (whether you believe it or not those sounds are notes in a key), knowledge of synthesis, and finally a knowledge of nearly every aspect of audio engineering. You may hate the music, but don't pidgeonhole anything like electronic music production as "Pressing random buttons on the computer" when you, in fact, no absolutely nothing about it and can not speak with any authority on the subject.
