"If you dwell too much on wins, your scope narrows and you stop having good ideas. It gives you tunnel vision; you'll convince yourself that what you're doing is the only way forward, restricting your options. Being overly fixated on winning leads to nothing but sticking to conventional ways." - Daigo Umehara
When Phil said "I learned nothing" I was like yeah dude maybe that's the problem? Even monsters like Daigo or Tokido or some of the ancient gods of vs fighting will always learn and improve, but YOU can't? lol
"Lemme teach you how to REALLY win fights. Do all the crap your opponent hates. ALL of it. Repeatedly. Get it? Got it? Good. Make 'em miserable, no excuses."- Juri Han
Right after he bought new buttons for his arcade stick and bragged about them we get a 45 min video of salty losses lmao. Maybe it's you Phil not the stick?
He knows it's him. If he didn't, he would have tried a different controller by now. After all that's supposedly the only thing holding him back from greatness
Who could've possibly guessed bullying Silvers & low Golds would've let to him to getting fucked by Platinums & low Diamonds? Imphassible to tell goob.
@@Bradley_Fitzgerald92yeah. Depending on the day, sometimes you can luck out on beating multiple lower ranked players and get on a pretty decent win streak as long as your fundamentals are good. But the moment you face someone with better skills, it shows how much of a scrub you really are. I’m saying this from experience because I’m the scrub lol
You have to have a lot of patience and match up knowledge to play Gief. One of the most frustrating things fighting a good Gief player is they can dictate the game by staying still, they stop all your advances and then when they finally start walking forward its scary as shit. No one was scared to fight dsp, they all rushed in even when they were in burnout, his geif has one combo and doesnt have anything besides that, there is literally nothing to be afraid of his gief.
Yeah zangief is completely the wrong character for him. You need good execution, good reactions, and really good defense. These are all of Phil's shortcomings rather than strengths.
Yeah, Gief is super scary even though the character is very flawed. But if they manage to make you scared for even one moment the round is over. DSP never manages to put the fear of Gief into anyone.
was this his most recent stream? cus this was the best one yet dude im new to dsp so this is the OFFICIAL stream that made me die of laughter and realize Tha Phil is Sucha bitch
@@kelkero9062he wants there to be no startup/recovery frames, and for everything to cancel into everything else, but also for the game to automatically know what yhe actually wants to do based on what's happening in the game at that point, but only for him.
You can literally see him giving up before the rounds are even over, so why is he complaining so much? He's not even following through to the end so of course he will lose acting like that.
He got so high off of beating silvers and golds from the community night with gief, he thought it was the answer to his prayers. So funny to watch it crumble in front of his eyes live.
He also realised he's not getting to master rank with Blanka so is now working on "variety". Justin Wong is at Master rank with the whole roster now, and has only played about 200 more matches than Phil.
Nah.... he's had worse. Ones where he was insulting his own fans, his insults to opponents were far worse, and fake laughing more often and uniquely. Phil always finds a war farther down to the bottom.
The funniest thing is that his camera keeps getting lower and now it's blocking off the "counter hit" on that side of the screen, he's really trying to hide that the game isn't going to let him lie
Now it's going to be because he has an octagonal gate on the stick so he can't do down back and 360s properly. He needs that square gate, Dood. That'll get him to master rank.
@@RebornKingz yeah, he decided he needed Sanwa buttons, even though there's nothing wrong with the Hayabusa buttons that come as standard with Hori sticks, although the amount of times he'll have slapped it and banged it around in a salty rage and the way he hits the buttons I'm sure they'll have been suffering.
One of Phil’s biggest problems is he just panics and crumbles. If you look he’s winning a lot of these rounds by a lot but then one thing goes wrong and it gets in his head and he just crumbles and his opponent starts to dominate. But that is just one of his many problems
What are you talking about? He’s doing everything perfect, it’s just these scrubs get lucky because his moves suddenly don’t come out, and his character freezes in place. Come on dood it’s all mash jab, safe bullshit.
He always seems to get tilted very easily, and he doesn't seem to be taking any breaks or hitting the lab. Just sitting in the Fighting Ground main menu complaining about this and that after a loss. No wonder he's dropping moves left and right if he's in salt generation mode all the time. I think he should try switching to Modern controls
Yeah, his mentality is absolutely awful. His execution is rough as well, but that's something that he could easily remedy if he didn't have such a bad mentality.
You don't always need to "block on reaction". Just block, dude. Also I hate when he says people "guess". Even if they do, so what? He acts like people only have to play the way he wants them to play. No one earns anything, and everyone is a scrub. Sure. Guessing and or making reads is part of winning matches. He fucking knows this.
Funny thing is: a lot of the moves he says are safe really aren't xD dude is getting hit with gimmicks repeatedly and not reacting or predicting. Which is weird. If it's a pattern well then how many times do you have to get hit with the same pattern before you predict it?
@@ValSempai I still think Dave makes excuses by abusing the same word salads he spouts without knowing what they really mean. Like the all "Roshambo" thing everytime he fails to get out of corner pressure.
What I personally find HILARIOUS At the start of playing this new street fighter, Phil said over and over things like “I’m not taking it too seriously” “I’m washed up at street fighter” “I’m not as good as I used to be” “I’m just playing for fun” etc etc But then his ego got the better of him, he beat up on low level disabled scrubs and started to think it was going to be the glory days again #3 ranked USA player in the world Phil re-emerged He started getting cocky and actually taking it seriously Now his poor little ego is getting checked when he’s facing REAL players lmao he can’t take the fact he’s a scrub Like from mw2 to black ops 2 I had a 2-3 kd in cod But I’m 34 now and I struggle to keep a 1.7 kd like I’m old, slower reactions, full time job etc so I accept I can’t compete anymore Little Phillip just refuses to accept reality haha it’s sad honestly
Yep, I'm 37 now, but I remember back in the day I used to have people lined up in Jedi Knight 2 multiplayer to saber duel me. I tore through almost everyone really clean, since I had basically mastered the medium stance and my reactions were ace. Stayed up until 5 AM many nights being the top dueler that almost nobody could beat. Great times! And it's fine for those to be in the rear view mirror. No shame in it. Nowadays when I want a challenge I just play a hard game like Elden Ring or something, but for the most part I take it easy and play all kinds of slower stuff.
@@theofficialhankhill3280 1.7 is objectively not bad I get your point, but in mw3 I had a 3.43 kd so struggling to keep 1.6/1.7 is definitely a drop off
You would think someone who's a former "Pro" Street fighter player should easily be able to beat someone who's just mashing buttons like he says they are.
It's so funny that Phil thinks calling everyone that beats him "a scrub, pattern player, online tactics, etc.". If you're getting beat by scrubs all day, what does that make Phil. The bottom scrub? It's just embarassing that he can't control his shitty, negative attitude. He'll never get better cuz he's too busy looking to complain when something goes wrong rather than winning. It's like he gets joy out of losing and complaining about it.
I'm all for these people being named and shamed by now. This is ridiculous that someone's willing to pay for this shit. It shows how ridiculous this online shit has gotten. Nobody should be paying to watch someone play a damn video game.
Funny thing is, according to Phil, GameTrekker doesn't even have the SF6. He has $29.99 to give Phil each time he plays it, has the time to watch Phil play, but Trekker doesn't have the money to buy the game himself or the time to play it himself.
From 4:40 on has to 4:48 has to be some of the most deliciously salted cooked PigRoach I've seen yet. Almost convinced his opponent was a Deejtractor with the way he was playing. The first DI was fine but then the random reset, whiffed throw, into two POINT BLANK DI's just had to be that DJ fucking with the Roach at that point. Literally had me Ack Ackin.
I love that he ranked up a little bit at first and he started getting that ego back from his fgc days, but it's just been ripped away from him at every turn since and he's getting so butthurt.
He deserved all of this. The night before, this man went on a massive ego trip during his CURATED community night, acting as though he accomplished something. Then he got brought back down to Earth. This man can't handle any adversity. He even had thr AUDACITY to say he was getting "depressed." This man has the emotional range of a child...
"Level 3 gave me level 2" Well, Phil, that means your input was level 2. The inputs are so different, the only way you could get 2 when you meant 3 is that you got the inputs confused.
I watch a nice thoughtful appreciative true gamer small variety streamer who streams almost every day after work and on the weekends never asks for a dime and has a master Zangief in SF6 so dsp just has a skill issue
I love the concept of “earning a move” as if Phil is the referee and has to ok whether or not they “beat him.” Meanwhile the other player is unaware of how his opponent is writing a 5 page essay about how they “did nothing wrong.”
So, those lil buttons he wasted money on did absolutely nothing 🤔 it's almost as if it's the person behind the controller making all the mistakes, not the controller itself.
Somebody asked him about the gate on the stick, and he realised it was octagonal instead of square. He'll he begging for money to change that now. That'll get him to master rank.
Happened with Luke. The first time he played Luke he did decent and was being insufferable gloating how he was vindicated that Luke was OP. The next time he played Luke he was magically more 'rusty' with the character than his first time ever playing with Luke, and came to the conclusion that Luke just wasn't that good. It only took him a couple streams to forget what he said about Luke not being that good and he complains about him again.
I've been watching this dude get punished for doing raw drive impact for two months. He cannot learn, adapt, or improve in any significant way. Absolutely regarded
DSP actually has decent fundamentals. He gets more than a few perfect parries and he isn't terrible about what ranges he's doing stuff. Like so many online scrubs, he just isn't willing to accept when he's screwed something up, and he isn't willing to lab anything to figure out what went wrong. He also seems not to understand how certain fundamental fighting game mechanics work, like hit and block stun, or pre-jump frames being immune to grabs. It's honestly impressive how far his SF2 style fundamentals have gotten him in ranked.
I forgot who but didn’t some pro player give him a replay analysis and gave him things to work on and habits to break from when like all his characters were stuck in like Gold to lower Platinum? Dude broke everything he needed down and took it and went with it and now he’s Diamond 4 with his Blanka and Diamond 1 with his Luke. He needs people to always analyze his errors for him, but hey if we were to tell him to analyze his losses and things himself he wouldn’t do it and complain I bet. It took someone else to make a video for this dude on his losses to get him good instead of doing it himself when that’s what replays are also for. Even in Diamond he still behaves the same when he loses when he’s not far from Master. Since he got replay analysis and help and improved exponentially from there it’s kinda hard to say if it’s truly the SF2 fundamentals crossing over, because he played even worse in SFV.
@@XxFinalFlashXx1that was Diaphone. He’s legit one of my fav streamers/content creators. He’s the epitome of a chill fgc player who’s serious about the games he plays, but still recognizes that they’re just that, games, and are meant to be fun. I love his content.
Anyone losing to hadouken > shoryuken gameplay has no fundamentals. He has no footsies or spacing his main strength is switching from high pressure in neutral to pumping the breaks and waiting to anti air... that's literally his gameplan and if it doesn't work and they pressure him instead he has 0 defense. You're mistaking him having 20 years of experience with a single game franchise with him actually knowing how to play fighting games but he doesn't. Also not impressive to rank up on when you play a game full-time mashing scrub tactics
And yet he plays like it's Street Fighter 2 Turbo where combos were made up of 2 to 3 or 4 hits and Gief has only the Lariat and SPD. Notice how he never used Siberian Express or Borscht Dynamite (aerial 360°) and he never goes training, just straight into the matches just like he did in the beta periods where he got 13-0'd by ChrisG who has labbed with Jamie. He may have decent fundamentals but his fighting mentality is still stuck in the early 2000s
The pre-jump thing is probably because in SF2 that wasn't a thing. If you weren't already in the air when the opponent is grabbing then you just flat out got grabbed due to grabs being frame 1 and pre-jump frames not existing. His Blanka being Diamond is mostly due to Blanka being an insane scrub killer. If you don't know how to deal with Blanka Ball then he kind of just steamrolls you, and Phil isn't the only player who doesn't know how to lab. Even at high ranks people are free to Blanka Ball.
Using wheel kick to close the distance, when you should be using knee hop, is a rookie mistake. You can't blame the game for that kind of decision making.
I've been watching detractor stuff for 2 months and it's amazing how horrible he is. I played street fighter 4 before and am horrible came from a mortal kombat background with a little tekken by all means am not a pro player but I bet everyone here in the comments can kick this man child's ass.
I can only take him in short bursts. He’s one of the most annoying people on the planet. If you genuinely enjoy DSP’s content, there is something wrong with you. You may want to go get tested to see if you have brain damage.
i cant wait for the imputs from the last 2 sf sessions. Also he jumps i have no anti air...smh phil you did level 3 his level 1 is an anti air grab. But ofcourse he did nothing wrong everything correct. Also watching a blanka play like him and saying has no skill so good. Also phil if every matchup is bad and non of your moves work on every fight perhaps the problem has and will always be you phil. manbaby
Lol, Lol; I love this guy. His ability to complain with zero accountability is pure entertainment. Classic RU-vid. Subscribed with notifications turnt all the whey on 👏🏾
OMG YES YES, i watched this live it was so freaking good OMG now lets replay this shit everywhere, Memology, snort Burnell, Snort Hogan... everywhere E V E R Y W H E R E 😃
“Gief doesn’t have an anti air to hit him from there” If only he had an air special that could grab them in the air and slam them down…. What would you even call it? Idk it feels like it wouldn’t make sense on him
Look everyone. The dents arrived. Anyone in life who has a real job, actual integrity, and is actually a man, doesn't watch Phil to feel better about themselves.
Surprisingly enough, watching him got me to do ranked for SF6 because he complains and rants after every input and it made me feel better about myself. Now I'm reaching platinum 3 Zangief and I've yet to be upset at all. All his bad calls made me better lol
It's sad that Phil doesn't get it. He may be a "former pro fighting game player", but you know what even casuals who care enough will do when they find situations they struggle with? One of a few things: 1) Actively seek them out and try to find solutions, aka practice. 2) Not blame the game; and again, practice. 3) Did I mention practice? 4) Oh right, realize you don't know what to do and find a way out. There's a lot of things really, but instead of TRYING TO LEARN and get better, he.. you know.. pulls a DSP.
23:10 and 24:30 one of the few times he would've been right about the game being bullshit because his super wasn't working right, not connecting when it REALLY should have, yet says either absolutely nothing about it or almost nothing. The ONE. TIME, that he would've been right.
19:11 "He Drive Rushed and then was able to cancel the Drive Rush into a neutral jump. Think about that." Because he's talented, Phil. He's an actual competitor.
He didn't cancel anything though, Drive Rush locks you into running forward for a bit before you can do anything, Ken just waited for the running animation to finish before jumping, something ANY character can do. Phil is trying to make it sound like Ken has some absurd advantage by blatantly twisting how the mechanics work, or he's really that ignorant as to how Drive Rush works.
Him sarcastically clapping after every lost is so irritating. Bro is being paid to stream one of his favorite video games ever and he can’t just stop himself from acting like this.
DSP yelling, "You really outplayed me," doesn't excuse the fact that he took an "L." I guess it's a coping mechanism for him getting washed at this point.
