    Daigo plays an amazingly technical Ryu.  I was especially impressed with his focus canceling and jumping roundhouse used to control the space above him.
     
    Just watching that match gave me a lot of ideas on how I can improve my own SFIV playstyle.

    if thats the case there is MANY channels out there! youtube now sports many channels featuring the best of the japanese and american players thanks to the dedicated SF community...

    http://www.youtube.com/user/ArcadeInfinity
    http://www.youtube.com/user/AHOJagi
    http://www.youtube.com/user/shinjnSRK (modding the TE edition Stick!)
    http://www.youtube.com/user/DogfaceShow (sort of SF video cast VERY VERY FUNNY!)
    http://www.youtube.com/user/sfturbo
    http://www.youtube.com/user/lordaborigine (japanese players/matches)

    i am subscribed to them all and its nice to see an SFIV vid pop up every now and again,they are short to watch and you can always take somthing away from it for your own game (even if it isnt with your character!)

    I'm not saying it wasn't him, but that player didn't really play like the Diago I know. Diago has a very specfic style, and he wasn't playing like he usually does.

    Lucky. There is absolutely nothing I can take from that as Chun Li.
    I also loved watching that. The way Bison uses his specials for mobility was prime.

    Seemed like Daigo to me.
    1. Lose the first round. - Check
    2. Win the second round. - Check
    Those are two things I almost always see Daigo do, whether he wins or loses by the end. I've never seen him play against Bison before (I'm not going to say you haven't.), so that's my explanation as to why he played a bit differently.

    well seeing as how its coming from eventhubs take it as fact (seeing as how they are a street fighter community)... plus how many vids are there of him playing against bison in sfiv? (2/3/4?) you watch the series were he fights all those pros orDaigo Japan national and go through those channels that i posted and there is enough of diago there to know that is him playing...

    as for his very specific style... i dont see it, he footsies / baits / combos like all the other top players out there... makes daigo so good is his ability to perform well in tournaments, hes always looking cool and composed as if its another day at the office lol

    Its like a sick ass dog fight (as in air combat you PETA jerks). If people main Bison just as the they already do with Ken, forum would light up with titles like, "Bison, don't be a dick".

    Heh... why are people calling M. Bison "dictator"? It would make since if there are people calling him Vega since that is his Japanese name but everyone on the comments of that video is calling him dictator for some reason.

    They call him dictator so if someone reads it, no matter what he's called in their area, they know who you're talking about. There's only one dictator, but there are two Bisons.
