Yo this guy fights like that one 30 year old dude in the back of the arcades in the 90’s that literally never left the sf2 machine. This is a zangief master
Daigo told this story on "FGC Translated" about seeing this Gief player in this arcade like 24/7 back in the day...He was a great player and when Daigo beats him he'd just put in another quarter again and again. But I think that was in Alpha..
the fact that MegamanX knows where to Lariat to not eat a tiger shot OR a sweep is so impressive. Seriously, O. Sagat Vs. Gief is like a 8-2 matchup and you wouldn't think it watching this guy.
I love SFII turbo to be honest both use the power moves too much when people are coming at you it’s best to use hard punch or kicks then Tiger Uppercuts or a fireball
@@HellTantrumbull and how do you know that? The dude's username is purposefully misleading, as he knows he can't be found through a Google search. Unless you are him, I don't see how you would know that information.
@@kingjoe3rd Or you can simply ask him how long he's been playing when he's streaming on twitch. even if he hasn't been playing for that long he's clearly been playing long enough to know what he's doing. No mystery to it for people that are following him.
There's something about you that I truly respect: you acknowledge when you get utterly bodied. You acknowledge and respect other very skilled players even though you are one of the best players in the world. Heh, great video as usual, Justin.
Thats one of the things i truly admire about Justin and other pro's. They dont have an ego and show true sportsmanlike behaviour. We could all take lessons from it.
If you think that you're good enough / better than other people, you'd stop improving. It goes for everything. That's how guys like jwong gets so good.
@@MagnusSentDooM it's not a true 10-0 since those are reserved to where you literally lose at round start and there aren't any inputs you can do to stop it. Like the (kinda fake) legendary Honda vs Gief in one of the earlier revisions of SF2 where Gief could SPD Honda roundstart and then inescapable tick throw Honda to death.
Can't lie getting bodied by Zangief is soul crushing BUT watching it happen to somebody else much less Justin Wong brings an evil happiness to my heart 🤣🤣🤣 Also Yipes/Wong/MvC2/Commentary 🙏🏾🙏🏾 I swear I will ask this forever until this iconic reunion happens 💯
I watched Smug get slaughtered by Megaman. And i thought youd get the same treatment, and to his credit, he gave you a big run for your money. It was highly entertaining seeing your reactions - they were near identical to Smugs. It kind of felt you were doing a boss run, heh. Thanks for the fun vid! And props to you, Megaman!
I felt that in the final rounds the zangief player was exhausted from all the effort he did, while the international tournament experience of Wong started to kick in
Smug is good player but he doesn't have the experience the old classics can give you so the results were obvious. Justin is an old dog so he did much better than him. But megaman-x8 he's another level with his gief...
@@dedfoker Daigo in his stream mentioned something similar about a player who would spend hours in the same arcade, playing only Zangief in sfa2 and becoming a master, beating everyone . Yet when they removed the cab for good, he stopped visiting. Daigo said he would never want to become good this way. Fightcade allows that sort of approach to the game.
I love this, showing mad respect to him and letting us see that grit that a champion carries with them. I really hope one day I can fight you in cap vs snk2, without lag. I started playing again for hours daily so that if that day comes I will bring my A game.
Yo amazing editing in this video, the editor managed to level the volume when justin screams... Really nice touch. Also the well placed zoom ins, the cuts. Really enjoyable video to watch
Im a big fan of Megamanx8 and his blue trunks Guief - I truly thinks that he's the very best Guief on classic SF right now. A very technical player with a perfect execution
As someone who has been playing this game since it came out and have always used Zangief as my main, I must say he is by far the best character of the series but he is one of the most difficult. That's the reward for mastering the most difficult characters, you open up their extreme strengths. A good example are the people who master Gen, they can switch styles in mid combo and take playing these games to a whole new level. Back to the Giefer, if you can master closing in on your target with taking minimal damage, executing his insanely powerful grapples is very easy. People sleep on this dude because he doesn't have projectiles, a big target and he's slow. If you need to use projectiles to win, you're just not on that level, brahhhhs PS: Oro is another excellent character that people sleep on because he is very unorthodox but that is his strength!
Megaman taught me one of my Ken cross up combos! (In a few of my channels videos!) Man is legitimate in the game! True master. Amazing gamer. Taught a bunch of latest NYC turbo scene! Mad respect!
Megaman X-8 is the folks, he takes time to help me out on fightcade and whoop my ass for a bit while giving me tips on Gief. Also shout out to Cigar Bob who is also helpful, I love how the community is still small enough to encounter these top players on a semi-regular basis.
Just watch when I come to town!! I'll be sure to look out for megaman X-8 and cigarbob!! I'll show them!! I'm calling you out megaman and cigarBOB!! 🔥_🔥
That man started reading all the chapters of Justin's book so Justin turns his braind off and use a technique that was written in the book it's called "Mashin like a Scrub" That was an amazing set though
I can only imagine how puckered and clenched your cheeks were Everytime this man just stood there menacingly as you were throwing standing Mk, HK in place......oooohhh this dude scary AF lmao! GGs as always Jwong and WP 💯
A friend of mines got beat perfect in Snk vs capcom 2 by someone else who started off as zangief. I was in complete shock. Beat 3 characters without get touched.
Those Zangeif players can be scary, especially when they start setting you up for the piledriver from deceptive range! I got mad respect for the characters in Street Fighter (and Mortal Kombat) for being able to have these over the top martial arts fights on top of narrow, precarious ledges. I would be nervous trying to walk across Cammy's stage without worrying about falling off, let alone trying to do a Spiral Arrow or a Spinning Lariat while moving left and right.
3:53 - Izuna dropped Sagat on his neck all in the corner where you get the “Triple Bounce Sound”😂😂 Imagine if Zangief fell off the side of the Bridge 😂
Great Job Great Job Wonderful Match-up That Megaman-X Dude Ain't No Joke I've Never Seen A Zangief Character That Good Dammmm You Definitely Did Ur Thang With Sagat
I remember watching pro matches that when Zangief spin Lariat to dodge tiger shots, depending on distance, Sagat would quickly tiger knee forward and tiger uppercut Zangief out of the Lariat.
Shout outs to megamanx8. That was the most entertaining match I've ever seen you play. That dude is fucking boss. He would wreck 99 percent of everyone. GGs all round on that one. Very fun. Seriously, megamanx8 is force to be reckoned with. Ima go check him out.
Have a happy Friday
Love how you said the guy was broken lol
You too Justin much love from the UK
I want to see you play geef
You too
The FREEGOD in full effect..J Wong
Yo this guy fights like that one 30 year old dude in the back of the arcades in the 90’s that literally never left the sf2 machine. This is a zangief master
30?.. how old are you.. 11?
For a guy named@@dbycrash you sure didn't put much thought into that comment.
That grown man at the pizza joint that buys one slice and sits on the sf machine cooking every kid that walks in to make his coins last.
He prolly still only bought that 1 slice of pizza and still using that 1 quarter he used to this day

Justin might have won the set, but gief won our hearts.
Ya, he was a frustrating pain to watch.
MegamanX8 is so good he makes it seem like everyone's been playing gief wrong for almost 30 years.
Hahaha 🤣
I feel like we actually have been playing him wrong all this time tho
This guy is soo good that I think he is from the KGB.
I've always found Zangief to be the weakest character to play as, but this guy makes it look so easy.
the fact that MegamanX knows where to Lariat to not eat a tiger shot OR a sweep is so impressive.
Seriously, O. Sagat Vs. Gief is like a 8-2 matchup and you wouldn't think it watching this guy.
Dude has been playing Zangief since the 90's, he's knows what to look for and makes his move once he see the opening. 😎

Just immaculate spacing. Lariat + shimmy back to bait the sweep in the corner and gets JUST out of range. Knows the matchup so well
When a Zangief player stands still right in front of you, you know your getting bodied lol
"He read chapter 2??!"
Literally LMAO'd at this, never heard this before.
7:08 to 7:25 respect imagine getting perfect vs Justin as zangief vs old sagat as world watches
This Zangief player was ridiculously impressive
As a zangief main this makes me happy.
Very happy
@@WaffleKrushaTTV like beating a plasma spamming shoto in two heavy spd's and then a final atomic buster into a rage quit mid ultra happy?
@@enigma9273 Exactly! Yes
@@WaffleKrushaTTV 😎😎😎
@TETCOM you must have been the shoto I made rage.
Justin's smiling and laughing in fear is amazing to watch while clearly having a good time 😂👍
This zangief reads and predictions are so good that his name has predicted the final score
Sagat: Oh? You're approaching me?
Zangief: I can't grapple you without getting closer
Sagat: Then come as close as you want.
Wait, that's TOO CLOSE
*YOINK*
@@Chadius 😅🤯👌
Gief: Za'warudo! Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Nah. Sagat'd say "Ohoh! Then TIGER TIGER TIGER"
That's what he did!

Soo agree, just like low tier god
I agree completely. And he also gives compliments to lower skilled players, too. And when you are one of them, it means the world to you.
Impossible not to root for the Gief. That's old Sagat he's trying to get in on!
Agreed!! I love the challenge of grapplers trying to get in but I'm assuming this match up is a 10-0 in old Sagats favor? 😂
@@MagnusSentDooM Definitely one of the worst matchups in the game.

Smug don’t play these classics. I’d body Smug in the old school joints. But Justin was around playing these on the mean streets. Very different.
I felt that in the final rounds the zangief player was exhausted from all the effort he did, while the international tournament experience of Wong started to kick in

Smug's pain is now Justin's pain.
Exactly, smug got waxxed by megaman not once but twice. 🤕
@7:20 is a man who just felt that Perfect and had No comeback smack talk and just ate the Perfect. lol
That was one hell of a Set you definitely have to play him again.
Pointing it out because it deserves notice:
That Gief stand HK @ 4:08 is something special.
Also him stuffing Justin's jump HK's with his own = yes
I love this, showing mad respect to him and letting us see that grit that a champion carries with them. I really hope one day I can fight you in cap vs snk2, without lag. I started playing again for hours daily so that if that day comes I will bring my A game.

Zangief is like the clap, it comes back from time to time and everytime it causes a lot of pain and discomfort.
God tier comment
Nah herpes lol

Justin's ability to adapt and learn on the fly is by far his greatest asset. It's incredible.
this whole weekend justin is gonna be scared for his life when harper or the wife hugs him lmao

It was Graham Wolf.
That Gief is pure horror. Would love to see Smug react to your set!
Great job Justin!
One of the most excitong match ups i've seen in a while! I was feeling the adrenaline all the time, was amazing!
you can feel justin' s stress through the screen 🤣
Best comment! Haha
That man started reading all the chapters of Justin's book so Justin turns his braind off and use a technique that was written in the book it's called "Mashin like a Scrub"
That was an amazing set though
If Justin was anyone else in Super Turbo vs Gief, he'd get swallowed up.
Justin whether you win or lose, you always entertain! Keep the videos coming!
Been waiting to see Justin play him. I knew it would be close. Although I need to see another FT 10 with them.
11:55 gets perfected then MegamanX-8 celebrates the loss with a coin sound.
Even when you lose, ST is a great game
2:50 comeback king
I can only imagine how puckered and clenched your cheeks were Everytime this man just stood there menacingly as you were throwing standing Mk, HK in place......oooohhh this dude scary AF lmao! GGs as always Jwong and WP 💯
Was doing the soul stare to the point Justin started doing panic jumps to keep him away. 🤣
Megaman X-8 not only has a great Zangief, he has a divine afro
Thanks bro
So awesome watching you play vs outstanding players and getting the wins, big cheers Justin
Seeing the spinning pile driver land is so rewarding because of the skill it takes to do it seamlessly.
Zangief is my favorite character to watch. I can't play him but when he's played well it just looks so impressive.
That high level gief was amazing to watch!
A friend of mines got beat perfect in Snk vs capcom 2 by someone else who started off as zangief. I was in complete shock. Beat 3 characters without get touched.

They would probably die if zangief pulled an SPD on that ledge, i doubt it won't broke in half, at least The Pit had pillars supporting the platform

Appreciate the score hiding in the beginning 🔥🔥🔥
Lol at 4:30. Geifs just watching Sagat flail like a child and waiting to end his career. That spacing is impeccable
for sure the best zangief the way so calm and the footies and sweeps are wild.
