« Watch Daigo beat a bunch of top Japanese players in this new video. »
Just when you thought the "Beast" himself couldn't impress you more, this new video released today shows Daigo up against some high level players in Japan (including Mago) and what does he do? Bodies them of course.
Watch how Daigo uses Ryu's standing jab to stuff moves. I don't think I've ever seen that before. I'm very impressed.
Will anyone stop this man?!?!

man, why did capcom take way far lk poke cancel from Sagat. Did you guys see that? Its way better than doing naked fireballs or tiger knees :(
some of the best matches i ever saw!
pretty close!
impressive! *_*
As much as i am not a Sagat fan i really think they should have not taken away anything sept damage i always found it fun play shotos (being a balrog player) lk poke is one of the one best things he had.
That man does NOT jump. It's amazing.
they don't call him "the beast" for nothing...
Yeah... he lost to Momochi and a boxer (if I remember correctly) during this set.
Daigo the beast.
So they took away lk karas? Ok, f.hk kara shit from now on. Just means you get more props if you can throw kara shots haha
The jab was sick to stuff attacks but I was loveing the low mk in response to the tiger knees! Idk if that's common but I havn't seen it before!
oh and on a side.... sfiv in mlg? Kinda sounds like it if Seb is doing commentary for them
"Gonna be in Orlando in a month doing commentary for MLG! Very excited :D"
agreed. Taking away cancelable far st.lk is really bullshit. Mago uses it alot. It was the only good poke poor sagat had against invading (non jump-in) shoto's like that daigo guy. Seems like capcom doesnt even know it's own game lol
wow didnt think daigo was on this night after watching him get massacred by sagat the first rounds i thought he wouldnt do any better. good to know all you Ryu users can copy and paste all the new stuff Daigo does, although standing jab probbly works for all chars.
"what do you do.. When your opponent's full screen, spamming tiger shots to keep you from proceeeeding? Yeah! Just keep on beasting!" Lol.
That last match was CLOSE!
lol yeah its was funny to see some of the Sagat players just giving up with a last upper cut.
and for the lk cancel I dont know why they would do that. Should of just left the solid characters untouched or nerf their ultra combo damage more and make everyone else have some solid features.
@ Shway. I dont think Sagat's karas are missing last time I checked so thats one good news.
why does this video make me want to watch this video? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNUPFzye9v4
umehara!
@C5Audio oh, ok. Wasn't sure if it was the kara, I had heard about the lk poke nerf in ways that made it sound like the kara was and wasn't in still, thanks for the clarification!
OMG that was incredible. That combo he used to on Rufus was just sick. And yeah, just standing jabs he was stuffing a lot of moves. Very interesting.
Wow awesome video although I must point out that this is the first time I've seen Daigo screw up his signature FADC combo lol
wow his ryu is mastered flawless execution he seemed bored and lost track of the himself and still beat Sagat he is a true beast the nerfs may hurt his Ryu
hoo mah gawd ahhaha dude went for the chip uppercut whiffed big time... both players are still awesome
s.lp in footsies and cr.mk to counter TKs aren't really all that new... He, as well as many other Ryu, have been doing that for a long, long time now.
He lost only to Momochi. Not the boxer(which was Pamyuu)
where can I find the rest of this set ?
Standing LP to stuff moves, isn't new.
Been doing it for a long time.
