if u watch other daigo videos, he usually loses the second round to make things more interesting, but he almost always pulls off an incredible finish in the 3rd round
It's brilliant actually. He got the person playing Boxer to stay defensive while charging his attack, which is what made it easy to fake him out and go for a throw.
@OniNuke I agree with you on that point, we all know that Daigo is renowned for making epic comebacks and winning close calls. I guess in my opinion I define "owning" as dominating and rolling over your opponents, as opposed to just finding crazy ways to pull off victories.
I heard loads of rumours that Daigo had not only quit 3s but also stopped seriously practicing ST, cvs2 etc. This x-mania was last year against top Japanese players who only play ST, so its amazing that he can beat them like that w/ Ryu when they're using Sim and Boxer (who should be owning Ryu)
You sir ^, Made the Smartest comment EVER. This was 2006 right? Daigo did very bad in all his games that year yet he still beasts like Hell. He's a God I swear.
DAIGO IS THE DEVIL!!! he is fucking psychic. how in the world did he get that last rh hurr kick over the yoga fire???can u imagen how much experience he must have???
@mynameistnb Even so, you don't see Gian losing everyday. He's the best Dhalsim on Earth. And losing to Ryu, that's scary. I'm not a Daigo fanboy, but he deserves his fame.
Generated response on people's inability to recognize a joke: It's a joke. I've participated in endless Street Fighter tournaments and have participated in EVO 3rd Strike events. I am well versed in all fighting games and am an avid competitor. This can be noted and observed in my TH-cam favorites, if you cared to look into the matter instead of shallowly bashing somebody who you thought was inferior in knowledge to you. This was clearly not the case.
Gian is the evo2k5 champion with Sim... and Tsuji is one of the best Boxer players in the world. Daigo beat them both with Ryu... i think you just contradicted yourself.

yeah definitely the most amazing thing about this vid is seeing Daigo actually smile/laugh
The way he change strategies against different characters is amazing
The Beast Daigo is a Master Shotokan Warrior

best hurricane kick use i've ever seen (!!!), sick walk-in throw on bison, plus daigo showing a bit of emotion there . . .
fucking epic vid
Very slick grab at the end by Daigo! That's a pro's trick!
oh my god. Daigo showed emotion in this video
mad props on the throw
@OniNuke I agree with you on that point, we all know that Daigo is renowned for making epic comebacks and winning close calls. I guess in my opinion I define "owning" as dominating and rolling over your opponents, as opposed to just finding crazy ways to pull off victories.
wow he took out bison so fast I barley missed it.
I loved the way Daigo hurricane kicked over Dalshims fireball in the first match to win I will use that skill in future matches.
Awesome
Wow rare show of emotion from Daigo after a victory at 1:08. You barely ever see him crack a smile let alone a small laugh.
I actually laughed when I read this!
Thanks for the laugh and completely true about Daigo.
I heard loads of rumours that Daigo had not only quit 3s but also stopped seriously practicing ST, cvs2 etc. This x-mania was last year against top Japanese players who only play ST, so its amazing that he can beat them like that w/ Ryu when they're using Sim and Boxer (who should be owning Ryu)
Its weird seeing Daigo show emotion when he wins!
@olivarious thats just the point. that 'almost lost' makes beating his opponent that much more epic.
I heard the same rumours , that he stopped all together. So i was hoping this vid was fresh :(
welcome to about 14 years ago.
You sir ^, Made the Smartest comment EVER.
This was 2006 right? Daigo did very bad in all his games that year yet he still beasts like Hell.
He's a God I swear.
ウメちゃんかっこよ😍
Daigo has emotion! He looks like he's dead inside in his other videos lol.
Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo (SSF2 X in Japan, hence the "X" in XMania)
lol @ the walk up grab near the end
You are so good as I was for almost 20 years ago. Congratulations !!!! Your are really good.
DAIGO IS THE DEVIL!!!
he is fucking psychic. how in the world did he get that last rh hurr kick over the yoga fire???can u imagen how much experience he must have???
good vid
the last throw took some balls
Diago smile cause he got a perfect
HAHA that Vega(dictator) got so badly owned it's funny. Daigo is just too good.
Gian, one of the best Dhalsim players in the world
i wonder why he picked him, and what he was thinking after he got owned
he was happier back then no american to taunt him at every fadc ultra
No, I was expecting people to applaud because it was good humor.
Lol, so many fireballs versus Balrog (the boxer).
OMFG DAIGO SMILED!!!!!
how he cross over with hard punch like that?!?!!?
wow just wow
he has a soft ban in japanese tourneys (its only frown upon if you pick him). But no one picks him (even though the rules say they can.)
Now...Just Imagize what he can do
in SF2 With Akuma
lol that was GREAT he just walked up and threw the man.
tsujis reaction at 1:55 is priceless
its owning cause it was a streak im assuming and u saw that perfect
Diagos all like "fuck this being in the corner shit"
@mynameistnb Even so, you don't see Gian losing everyday. He's the best Dhalsim on Earth. And losing to Ryu, that's scary. I'm not a Daigo fanboy, but he deserves his fame.
Yes it was.
1:08 Daigo looks very happy
well on my wii i can download sf2 turbo hyper something is that it
playing against daigo is a disadvantage!
High priority attacks, fast projectiles with low recovery...
i think u should change the description.. dan owns
Last word is mine, 1+ for internet trolls every where.
Yes ^.^
You know in Japan Vega is the US Bison right?
What version of Street Fighter 2 is this? Also I'm assuming this is arcade, am I correct?
Wrong. Tiers are based on the BEST MAXIMUM performance that a person is capable of, given the tools for each character.
super turbo bison (vega) = fail?
agreed 100%
Is the online good? My HD Remix has been lagging like hell lately and I'm sick of people getting lag wins.
Psychic Hurricane Kick!!! lololol
1:08 first time I've seen Daigo emote after a match.
daigo actually showing expressions? what?
he's daigo maaan
yeah that's a lot of fireballs...
HD remix he is, hes higher then guile
he makes ryu look like akuma and dhalsim look like dan?WOW dan has improved to knock akuma down to 1 hit :)
lol @ 0:45.
The crowd screaming scare the shit of Daigo's opponent.^^
lol at 1:08. First time I saw Daigo show emotion after he won.
I agree with you 100% Yuuvega is awesome
Daigo. ownz. all.
lol@ 0:46
the guy on 1p startled like "WTF"
daigo smiled? wtf. -checks for the apocalypse-
he baited bison beautifully.
He was fuked right there and then
@raigami no, i understand jokes. what you said isnt a joke because it isnt humorous in anyway. its not that its offensive. its not. its just unfunny.
when was this taken place, 2007?
Let's have a youtube argument. I'm SO getting last word because I don't have a rebuttal to your response.
He failed so hard that he wasnt even mentioned in more info.
a thing called practice
Yuuvega is still one of the best dictator players in the world, he just got stomped in that match.
1:09 he fucking smiled!!!!
YA RLY!
I'm gonna spoil the vid... This is the one when Ryu goes "HADOUKEN!"
was that Yuuvega or ARG?
2nd fight pure ownage
is that sf 2
shoooo ryu ken
the only thing bad about street fighter is getting the bubble blisters. but its worth th pain!

yeah go in close against balrog thats real smart.
Super Turbo Bison = Epic Fail. He got a mud hole stomped in him and it was walked dry.
why he looks way cooler with long hair
was balrog player tsuji?
Gian is the evo2k5 champion with Sim... and Tsuji is one of the best Boxer players in the world. Daigo beat them both with Ryu... i think you just contradicted yourself.
Justin is like 1-10 in matches lifetime vs. Daigo.
Why does it seem that Daigo is just spamming?The guys good but I think with some training i could take him.
0:55 to 1:10
Super Street Fighter 2X = VIOLENCE.
Yeah, no chance in hell, mate.
Daigo is a sexy beast....
I liked the part when Dictator landed a kick
loooool vega never had a chance
