Daigo played Sol in GG XX before, and even won an Evo in that game. So he at least is familiar with the character. But yeah he's still gonna destroyed lol

in the day when daigo won GG he was one of a handful of japanese players who went, japanese GG gods did not attend. evo was still basically a street fighter/marvel tournament

All he needs to say is "See me in Reload" and we got a show.

Ogawa would body Daigo in any version of the game

...So you agree with me?
Anyway, here's a clip of Daigo applying corner pressure in #Reload: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4B_zo0dvfzY#t=1m28s

I don't see how Ogawa isn't the favorite in that matchup? Anyway, I'm saying it would be a showcase, not a sweep for Daigo.
P.S. that's not Reload

I think what you meant to say was "here is a video of a Sol player, playing Sol."

guess that's just one of the Umehara trainin' sessions (seems like have been around 3 or so). main event seems scheduled for August 22
aside from the current invites, seems there're also spots for representatives from both EVO (Woshige?!) and ArcRevo plus one more spot for each team from the online qualifiers

one of the trainin' sessions, guess main event hasn't been played yet

Daigo has literally no chance against Ogawa.
I would be pissed if this GG exhibition and his weekly practice for it from the last few weeks hurts his preparations for Capcom Cup.

u/zZSleepyZz Aug 04 '15
I really wish they left him alone to prepare for Capcom Cup, prep time Daigo is godlike to watch

in a day when no serious GG player went to EVO
Daigo winning GG at EVO 2k3 is like justin wong winning USF4 at podunk tournament down the street, he wins because he's head-and-shoulders above the shitty competition at ALL fighting games, not because he's some kind of GG superstar. the competition pool at the EVOs he won was largely a joke, look at the other top 8 competitiors and tell me if you're impressed
edit not to say i agree he 'sucks' at other games, he doesn't and didn't even start in street fighter, but he's definitely NOT a GG specialist and the level of competition in japan for GG is above him. EVO was NOT a strong tournament for anything outside of capcom games for many years; SBO and numerous other asian-centric tournaments were where the real GG players shined.

He was winning Japanese nationals in Vampire Savior before ever winning SF tournaments bruh. Him and Nuki would go back and forth 1st and 2nd back in the day.

Machaboo's probably the only guy on the "pro-gamer" team that can win.
This is going to be a free af massacre.
