Team Northern California vs Team Wednesday Night Fights Team tournament from SoCal Regional 2014 I do not own any of the content in the video, just trying to promote the tournament and players!
Not this year 😔 lost by 1 point to get out of group stage, but that’s with Zangief probably at his weakest iteration in season 1. Who knows what’ll happen next year
Every so often I come back to rewatch this set, easily the best 5 on 5 ever, one of the greatest FG sets of all time, and one of the single most impressive individual runs in any game or sport I’ve had the pleasure to witness. Legendary stuff here.
2023 and still loving this, amazing talent from all involved but the ultimate display of guts ,skill and determination from snake eyez, WOW!!! :) :) :)
Greatest Zangief Player in the World, period. You know you're great when you have Fans from around the world. I even heard their is a huge Fanbase in Japan that loves SnakEyez Gief and root for him every time he plays. So much epic, and I seriously, seriously thought it was over, but I kept watching, because you never NEVER know when a Moment In Fighting Game History will take place. This became one of those moments.
I have seen snake eyes pull of some ridiculous shit but this takes the cake. Even though he obviously better than anyone there, playing five top tier guys in a row is tiring and just plain brutal. Mad props to snake eyes and hope he does well and Capcom finals.
One of the greatest performances ever with a low-tier character no less. The poise, intelligence and constant clutch after clutch. Nothing short of hype and it never gets old. Much props to you Snake Eyez, you are a FGC legend, Zangief style!
Wow. Zangief was actually very menacing in SFIV. The walkspeed, the greenhand links to get in your face, the footsies and whiff punishment. So terrifying.
As a longtime SFIV player I can tell you, yes, Zangief in IV is absolutely terrifying. 2 Frame SPD means you better have frame perfect pressure or you are about to go on a trip, among the things you mentioned.
I never get tired of watching this and taking notes from an amazing Gief player. As a gief player my self, This is just a treasure troll to better my game with Gief.
Turn this into a movie.. and I'll gladly say SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY! Watched this live.. and this was the best thing I've ever seen in the FGC. Way to go SnakeEyez!
I actually felt sorry for him at one point! SnakeEyes was all over him like a cheap suit and he's not used to being bodied like that...except when he got ripped apart by Sanford Kelly's Oni! Mega LOL
Never thought I'd ever see a better fighting game grappler than Vangief...and then Snake Eyez steps onto the scene. BIG ol' pair of brass balls on that guy, win or lose!!
I absolutely hated Gief during street fighter 2 days. I get close, and he SPDs me. I was swearing at the arcade machine, calling "bullshit!" Good times.
The buggest problem going uo against Gief players, is that there are so few of them. So you watch matches, read frame data and read matchup material. Then you get SOD to death. Nothing but experience can prepare you. Its so hard to adapt to that playstyle.
BRUH when I first watched Snake Eyez land that siberian blizzard on LPN I was thinking ok whatever he's still behind on life, LPN has the momentum, probably gonna lose anyway. Then I remembered that the video still had another hour on it and I'm thinking, is there a second exhibition next? or?....... LOL NOPE
