oiled up hakan is no joke ladies and gentlemen.

Yeah Tokido is so bad... fyi he spams c.mk because it has more range than any of dudleys pokes and will stuff dashes so by doing this dudley can't get in. Also he has a weak reversal game and buy spamming demon flip he gets bar and it is relatively safe.
Calling tokido bad lol what a joke.
Mad props to that Dudley against Tokido. That Thunderbolt FADC was clutch.
Every time I see Dhalsim get some play I hope that I see something amazing but every time I keep getting disappointed. Mochi's got a great Sim too, it does seem like he wasn't playing his best. Even still, that should have been an easy Sim win.
My heart swells with joy when I see Juri taking Fung Shui Engine. It really is a great ultra that can lead to big things, just never got enough play in Super and early AE.
Tokido played like a Beast as usual but got shook for good reason. That Dudley was quite impressive.
You sure thats Latif? His gamertags are PJS Latif and Not Latif. Either he has a 3rd account (why would he need a 3rd one anyway?) or this isn't him.
Sim vs Hakan is an interesting match since Hakan is probably the best grappler for fighting Sim thanks to FA cancel, slide under flames and oil rocket over limbs. But all things considered Sim still has the advantage in the match I think. Hakan can push Sim into the corner A LOT faster than T Hawk or Gief can and has better options to punish jump backs and teleports but if Sim is on his game he can keep Hakan from reapplying oil and that is a big issue for Hakan.
As for the Dudley matchup, the Dudley player had some amazing footsies and always kept Tokido in a range where he could react to fireballs or s.HK and where c.mk and sweep were too far away. Tokido played great when he got the knockdown and has some great frame traps but the Dudley player stayed really calm and never got impatient with Tokido's air fireballs and c.mk/c.lp shenanigans and I think that is what won it for him.
Is Air Ryu any good, I dont think I came across him much, I havent seen Latif win a top player for a while, meanwhile Fuudo, Mago and Daigo are practicing with themselves and other top player like kindevu and Momochi
Latif, Justin Wong, Mike Ross, Gootechs , Poongko and GamerBee should probably arrange a practicing gig
I am genuinely wondering how Hakan vs Sim is in Sim's favor in v2012? Eternal mentioned that Sim has the ability to stop Hakan from oiling up from almost full screen, but as he now starts his rounds as oiled up, this isn't as big of a problem for Hakan as it used to be. Also I was under the impression that Hakan got oiled up, even if he is interrupted during his animation now?
Hakan's oil slide when oiled up is pretty fast, and can punish (if pre emptive) any wiffed limb by dhalsim (YHC pressed crouching jab and got oil slide in the match). Together with his focus cancel into sweep etc, he only needs a good guess to get Sim knocked down. When knocked down, Sim seems to have very few tools to deal with Hakan's mixup.
I openly admit my experience against Hakan is very limited, so I would like to have some opinions on how Sim should approach the matchup to make it in his favor?
@4
you dont expect that kind of play because your still stuck on scrubby status. when you level up you'll understand why the PROS do things like that.
@6
i saw him doing that to Sako too during the Topanga Tourny last night. maybe its some new tool he came up with or something.
Why is it that everytime I see a vid of my main Juri being played, she loses? Fills me with salt everytime. Good Juri play nonetheless. I usually don't have respect for Hakan players, but that was really good play against that Dhalsim. Props.
@BisonBetterBeGoodInSSF4
ohh its the bison boy, I say so bad cuz I dont like the easy spam, not tokido is bad, but good to see dudley stop it
And PRo status with an easy character like bison? ohh please :) you must be kidding, plain brain for a plain player hahahaha
you must be one of these idiots who cry for bison motion ultra 2 change hahaha
Air beat Justin Wong several times in tournament. He's the best pro Ryu in Canada (maybe the only one lol) and probably the best Ryu on xbox live.
Tokido had no respect for that Dudley player. I wouldnt either.
