One of the coolest things was that people were learning *during the tournament*. They changed what buttons they used to jump in, their spacing became better, they blocked in situations where they previously mashed. Only doublelift didn't really change because he was so far ahead of everyone he didn't need to. : D
I'd also add Jake in that list, people think he's gotten to where he's at with only 1 week of practice but truth is he's no stranger to fighting games, he went through 2 sticks so I'd say that's plenty more experience than the rest lol. PVPx, Keeoh, and Jericho would be the guys in the next tier below those two. Only reason I didn't put Lirik in this group even though he finished 2nd is because all those guys knew how to combo, Lirik really beat 2 of them and made it to 2nd place not knowing how to combo lol
"you're good enough to get robbed." I need to start using that phrase in some of the discord servers I'm in. It fantastically describes that part of the learning process where you know what happened, maybe even how to counter it but don't quite have the experience to apply that knowledge practically yet
That girl mashing lp with Honda and laughing/crying "I'm so sorry" over and over is now one of my favourite fgc moments. Great content as always by twitter guy.
like I get it's funny for us fgc players but I honestly appreciate that they took the time to venture outside of their norm and tried a fighting game, and as amusing and painful it was to watch I am proud sfv has gotten enough attention now to have the big streamers play it. I hope this can continue with other fighting games as well, like KOF or Tekken
@@ghostblade1042 it’s honestly easy to just go in and push some buttons in Tekken. People tend to start looking at the movelist almost immediately and that kills their motivation, especially since most characters only utilize about 30 of those.
yo, if you're just starting fighting games, you find that wake up DP is a helluva drug, man. Hopefully he keeps enjoying playing SF tho, maybe he'll even get past his wake up DP phase.
I really like the "language" analogy by Brian. you can't learn a language just by studying grammar, you have to immerse yourself and observe the way natives use their language. you can't also learn fighting games by practicing combos and poring over guides. it's like trying to drive a car by studying mechanics.
@@DragynFyre12 From what i remember. There was a video from Double Lift on youtube, and he had mentioned that he actually was into FGC first, way before getting into league. I think there actually was a lot of really good pro players in league that actually was into old school fighting games, before transitioning into league. But I do also notice that a lot of MOBA players do play fighting games and in visa versa, when it comes to gamers who play different genres.
Honestly I just appreciate they stayed level headed and didnt call the genre/game garbage due to their own lack of knowledge and frustration of what's happening like xqc did with tekken
@@lilacrain3283 just like Hasan, Mizkif, Asmongold. Apparently people likes them because they're not afraid to say controversial stuff/jokes and being an asshole online
@@TheeMFGr0uch Sometime I do feel bad when having to leave mid set or whenever I consistently win and can tell my opponent is trying things out and learning. Recently had a 50win-0 set in DnF Duel beta, I could tell he wasn't familiar with FG and how to deal against Striker but I noticed he was willing to learn and didn't want to disapoint him, showing him dirty tricks like the Dive kick being plus or j.L cancellable depending on the height. I do not consider myself good by any means I just happened to have more experience and used tools I've learned through trial or got hit by from another Striker earlier.
Had a ten round match with a Dragon Knight in the 2nd open beta for DnF and it ended in tie with the Dragon Knight ending it with an awakening finish. Shit was so fucking cool, it felt like going through a rival story arc.
Lirik was actually playing SFV 1-2 days after the tournament too i only tuned in briefly but you could tell he had gotten better. More so than who won the tournament i felt like that was the real victory... one of us?
Doublelift already plays fighting games. I think he just isn't a big sfv fan. He said once that he wanted to compete at Evo for sf4 because he used to grind it but his LoL contract didn't let him compete in other events.
Doublelift is just merciless lol. Watching some newbies get stomped by a player that knows the game is just heartbreaking, although there's nothing wrong with it.
When I heard about the tournament, my first thought was that if at least one person could play this game around at least Gold level, they would take it, considering it's filled with new blood. Well, turns out I was right. He did the right thing though, as highlighted by the JW quote above.
For me it was so stupid and boring to have Lift playing in it because you know he's going to win. So I just watch the real newbies play and I loved it. It was fun, fair, and you didn't know who would win. But when I saw Lift I just left and stopped watching till it was over, when it came to the finals I just left and behold I was 100% correct as to who would win it all. Was so damn unfair and boring to see him win but at least most of it was fun to watch the rookies play.
@@methanesulfonic From inside a bubble, you usually call people from outside of the bubble "regular". This is true for almost everything people can be dedicated to. :)
Doublelift clearly have played the game before or at least knew the basics of Fighting games, I mean the guy was training online and rank up to SUPER GOLD (I not even GOLD and I play this game since release XD), props to him he clearly put the work on this, the others didn't stand a chance.
I literally wouldn't have heard of this tournament if it wasn't for this video, i hope they make more of those so i can see it live. Also super relate to noko getting salty abt fighting gamers being built different lol
here is the answers you would get "Combos and doing fireball? dude you wanna kill my hands?" "Zonk whats that?... what do you mean i have to hold the button and then release? what kind of shitty desing is that just let me press the fucking button to do it why the fuck does it have to come out when i release it?" "No clue what that vtrigger shit is, dont care just gona mash"
there's a reason why tier list for fighting games are split into your normal character tier list and scrub killer list people with no fundamentals of spacing, execution, resource management, movement etc... will not understand why a move is good or how safe a move is
Doublelift's reaction is exactly how I feel anytime I play against G in silver. Do I try and tech to stop the command grab combo that does 40% health, or do I block to stop the regular combo that also does 40% health? Best bet is usually just EX DP and never give G a turn, ever.
@@danlorett2184 Yea I won't argue with that. He has bad defense, but he's not as bad at these games as everyone makes him out to be. He's above average and has an ego so he never improves. That results in him constantly losing, and letting his emotions take over and all that jazz
I love that you highlight things like this on your channel. Fun events where people get to discover the highs and lows of fighting games are good for the FGC!
11:54 this is what it’s all about. This is what gets people to get into fighting games; a simple, effective strategy that’s fun to use and gets the win. When they fight better players, it should get them to realize theres more to learn and that’s the start of a long, and beautiful journey.
Watched Lirik's sf5 stream day after the tournament. He still plays Sagat but was practicing Oro during matchmaking practice mode, so he still got that dream haha. He's impressively good with Sagat but he did say he is too aggressive for Sagat playstyle at some points.
That E. Honda tweet was basically the same advice I gave to randos at the SFV cabinet when I used to work at Round 1. If they played Chun, Blanka, or Honda I just told them to mash the light button and they'd beat their friends. Good times.
This feels like a preview for the release of the LoL fighting game, except instead of people we know are good at other games, it's just the League player base mixed in with FGC sweats ready to twerk on new players. I can't wait to see it.
Hey Brian, I've been watching you for a while now and it's helped me finally get to gold. I was stuck at Grand Master for the longest time but finally hit gold thanks to your advice.
history repeats again however it is in Japan with CR Cup. Almost 600k viewers across youtube and Twitch. The view was consistent during training and the peak of the tournament itself. The format is one pro + 4 popular streamer(vtuber,fps and lol). It was really good and once again Daigo prove why he is the main attraction by pulling multiple comeback victories. It was really hype.
Doublelift would have competed at EVO for SFIV if Riot's contract didn't stop you from competing in non-Riot games, he was definitely going to shred everyone here LOL
I saw this and it got me to get the sf bundle. I picked up Laura and have casually gotten to silver coming from almost zero fighting game experience. It’s been a blast
I thought I was regressing but I'm glad it's something natural when trying to be better as a bad player. I noticed I started to understand how fighting games work but I was losing to people doing random things because I was thinking too much. I wasn't aware that dip was a common thing people experience.
It’s so fun seeing top streamers who play shooters for their pro career, play a 1 on 1 fighter game it’s like watching my first time playing fighter games but I’m watching a man in his 30’s while fighter games is the genre I first got into
Ayo Brian, discovered you from Lirik's channel and love the content. Binging a bunch after grinding SF6 open beta and excited to see you eat that game up on launch!
I like how Brian spoke one that fact that if you're actively trying to learn the game/learn fighting games in general(either way) your results are going to be bad for a while, I started playing fighting games back in 2017 and for the next 3 years on n off I got fucking shook for everything n around 2020(like a lot of us) I got better at something n that something just happened to be fighting games it took about 3 years for me to actual see results n now I love the genre. Yes it's hard to get into, yes you're going to get bodied, and yes it can be toxic, but this shit is amazing n I highly recommend this genre to anybody who feels like they need something new to try.
This was such a cool watch, really nice to see events like this honestly! Such great energy, great vibes. It stinks it takes $35,000 to encourage events or streams like this where folks outside of the community come into fighting games big time.
I'm coaching my bf how to play KOF15 as they fell in love with Terry in Smash. Also helping them learn Samsho and GGRev2. It's a unique experience teaching someone how to play something I've been doing as a kid.
Just figuring out which tools you have and how you can utilise them is difficult enough if you go into a complex fighting game like street fighter. When I first started I was so confused about why I had so many buttons and even more confused about some enemy moves to which I couldn't find an answer. On top of that, even if you know what you have to do, getting the muscle memory to reliably execute your intentions can be frustrating in the beginning.
Noko is that guy that goes from 0 to 100 about the simplest things. I get it it’s frustrating but Christ the guy makes me feel like I just snorted coke.
"Legends in both gaming and the streaming business" Never heard of any of these people before in my life. Maybe big in streaming, but gaming in general? Naw, man
@@Eidlones names all over esports and twitch. Shroud I know for sure if you were into esports beyond FG’s, you would have at least heard off. Mizkif is one of the biggest streamers on the platform as well. Goes on and on.
That girl playing Honda was me in 1994 when I first played SFII XD, I found Honda and bodied my brother mashing jab XD. Awwww that was actually funny and cute all at the same time.
After this whole tourney shining a light on SFV maybe we will start seeing some of these big streamers play the game more. Also would love to see Brian on Ludwigs Joes vs Pros. Maybe have another big fgc creator coach the guys a little bit but I think that would be very entertaining.
This is off topic Brian but I may have discovered some tech with oro. Back md. K into command grab oki of course. Thanks to your oro videos I'm learning every day of what I can do with him in neutral. #OROISTHESHIT!!!
i trained at flick shots when i played overwatch and from my experience i find it way harder than 1 frames link , meety or safe jabs for exemple in fighting games
Seeing 'ol girl bust a stitch mashing that light punch button brought life into my dreary night at work. I like seeing people get good at fighting games and all, but I also like seeing people just laugh and have fun like this too.
I remember my first true exposure to fighting games. In freshman year of college, my roommate had a PS3 with UMVC3. I had played things like Soul Calibur, MK, and Smash before but never to learn them really. I was getting my ass handed to me by my friends who were clearly button mashing. Well, one day I took shrooms and watched a NLBC tournament of Vampire Savior and that changed my gaming life forever. I started learning combos and grinding in UMVC3 and SF4 to the point that I beat (an old) Afro Jason Cole in an SF4 tournament ;) I can say I beat an EVO champ!
One of the coolest things was that people were learning *during the tournament*. They changed what buttons they used to jump in, their spacing became better, they blocked in situations where they previously mashed.

Noko is that guy that goes from 0 to 100 about the simplest things. I get it it’s frustrating but Christ the guy makes me feel like I just snorted coke.
Doublelift & Chauster were pretty decent SF4 players, they used to stream it after hours.
Ain’t no way that man unironically screamed WEIRDCHAMP lmao
While wearing bunny ears, no less. Welcome to mainstream Twitch, where the streamers are insufferable and the gameplay is terrible.
yooo that's my friend who made Noko ragequit.
Necalli has always been underrated, especially v skill
"Legends in both gaming and the streaming business"
Never heard of any of these people before in my life. Maybe big in streaming, but gaming in general? Naw, man
Shroud and doublelift?
@@Brian_F No idea.
@@Eidlones gotta go out that bubble
@@thouartseraph OK, so tell me where I would have come across these people if I don't watch their streams?
@@Eidlones names all over esports and twitch. Shroud I know for sure if you were into esports beyond FG’s, you would have at least heard off. Mizkif is one of the biggest streamers on the platform as well. Goes on and on.
I already saw a few of them playing the game after, pretty cool
Lirik got hooked up to SFV after the event and rank up till ultra bronze on stream during the weekend ^^ he SAGAT IT LUL
Step aside Bill Nye The Science Guy, Brian_F The Twitter Guy is the new chief in town
That girl playing Honda was me in 1994 when I first played SFII XD, I found Honda and bodied my brother mashing jab XD. Awwww that was actually funny and cute all at the same time.
Idc what he said Brian F is an oro main now
Doublelift used to play SFIV while waiting for ranked matches in league
After this whole tourney shining a light on SFV maybe we will start seeing some of these big streamers play the game more. Also would love to see Brian on Ludwigs Joes vs Pros. Maybe have another big fgc creator coach the guys a little bit but I think that would be very entertaining.
This is some good content, thanks for making this @ whoever made it
This is off topic Brian but I may have discovered some tech with oro. Back md. K into command grab oki of course. Thanks to your oro videos I'm learning every day of what I can do with him in neutral. #OROISTHESHIT!!!
My bad no oki but you can get corner switch and -2 after dash. 💯
i trained at flick shots when i played overwatch and from my experience i find it way harder than 1 frames link , meety or safe jabs for exemple in fighting games
This event was the street beefs of fighting games
i haven't played street fighter in a year and i'd probably get far or maybe win this tournament
Brian "twitter guy" F with the big knowledge
I think it's time to put away the christmas tree man
Great video Brians, thanks yall :)
Oh shit, this is the channel of BrianF the twitterguy
I hope lirrik leaves a fat "ggs I was the sagat" here
Seeing 'ol girl bust a stitch mashing that light punch button brought life into my dreary night at work. I like seeing people get good at fighting games and all, but I also like seeing people just laugh and have fun like this too.
I remember my first true exposure to fighting games. In freshman year of college, my roommate had a PS3 with UMVC3. I had played things like Soul Calibur, MK, and Smash before but never to learn them really. I was getting my ass handed to me by my friends who were clearly button mashing. Well, one day I took shrooms and watched a NLBC tournament of Vampire Savior and that changed my gaming life forever. I started learning combos and grinding in UMVC3 and SF4 to the point that I beat (an old) Afro Jason Cole in an SF4 tournament ;) I can say I beat an EVO champ!
