WORLD GAME CUP - MASTER SERIES TOURNAMENT - MATCHES FROM DAIGO, RYAN HART, EITA & MORE!
So those of you who kept up with World Game Cup probably heard about their "Master Series" Street Fighter 4 tournament. Basically how it worked is they held qualifiers each day to get into the main tournament, and those who entered had a chance to win a free ride to EVO!
Since then, some videos of this tournament have shown up online, and let me tell you, they are some real bangers! I'm really happy to see these being uploaded because I wasn't sure if we would ever see videos of this tournament. Ryan Hart vs Daigo is a pretty incredible match so check that one out first, and you'll be surprised how well Evans, a Fei Long player, does against Eita. I've also included a couple others from the tournament but be sure to check out Hakf's YouTube Channel for all the rest.
Thanks to SephirothRK on NeoGAF for the heads up.

James,
Thanks so much for uploading these, seriously. I thought Id never see these matches. The end of the Ryan Hart vs Daigo video is insane. We have a term for that in NorCal...
LET IT RIIIIIIIIIIP!!!!!
Look in IRC, lots more coming :)
Wow @ that Ryan Hart match. Impressive stuff.
Those were some truly amazing match vids. That Daigo v. Ryan Hart was crazy. Also very nice to see a very skilled Fei Long.
WOW, Daigo has been taking a lot of losses lately. Not sure how well he's gonna do at EVO. Than again there's still what, 6 months left? Still, hope he steps his game up BIG TIME cause this year we're HUNGRY!!!! No advantages for them either so it's serious this time. No excuses!
Dridon,
It's part of the plan. Make people think he is weak before unleashing the beast at EVO... uhh.. maybe not. :P
@Dridion
He placed second at the tournament.
Ryan Hart just got on Daigo's level and met him with the same of awesome spirit and tenacity.
Daigo said during an interview at the event that european level is way higher than the USA,he got impressed
Eita said that european level is similar to the usa(I dont know how can he say this since he has never been in the USA)
During the loser braket quarter final shirl,an Italian akuma,put out a big show against daigo stunning his ryu and play a close game,He ended 5th losing to fuudo in the winner braket and daigo in the loser braket.
ryan got 7th tied with kenpachi.
Great show also from a guile player and desora got double perfected by an Irish cammy(well,gouken cant do shit against cammy)
The Guile player was Dieminion from the US, he was over here with the London crowd. He will be in London for 2 months.
The Cammy player was Cobelcog
very good to see a fei long player. I was beginning to get fed up with all the sagat, ryu and akuma players.
Haha, in the first vid @ 6:47
"i tell you what, he did a focu- blaaah, droool-
.....yes, im easily entertained.
I take it the onlookers shouting and being rude are living vicariously?
Man, Ryan Hart has the biggest single cheering squad i've ever seen. They really don't like Diago there.
Nice vids.
Re: Cobelcog: I've actually played him (offline) a number of times before. I never had any idea he had anything like that in him, though! Well played man.
It's not that we don't like Daigo, but you support your own team when they play. We were cheering for Luffy against Daigo as well.
Cobelcog's Cammy, is one of Ireland's prized players, and he's a pad warrior too! :P
Daigo got top 8 in the master series as you see him lose and get eliminated right here against Ryan. He got 2nd in solo event losing to Luffy then Fuudo.
