Snake Eyez showed some interesting Zangief techniques at Capcom Cup X. Let's deep dive in on how he did that! #StreetFighter #CapcomCupX Thank you for watching! You can follow and support me at Follow: / hifightth Support: / hifight
@@JohnEastmanExAttyAtLaw Yeah but can he do what others do on the best characters? I am just being argumentative here but I do think just because you see amazing success on a low tier it doesn't prove your superiority at the game when it comes to a certain point
it actually does. those inputs are super hard to put in. you would think that he is playing modern controls. he used to play Akuma. he hardly ever lost with him. i think it was too easy and he went back to Zangief.@@GreatRusio
Snake Eyez is the only player that gives me that excitement I used to get watching Daigo back in third strike, st and sf4. The guy just knows how to put on a show and make it entertaining to watch
@Omg_Him_again youtube might block the link but Shinlad has a quick video about it, bit overall if you search sf6 jump cancel you should find it ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bbRAuEDP554.htmlsi=W_27VRTd7DKLSyep
Man.....I always hear people talking about "secret tech" that pros save for tournaments and try not to let anyone know until they have to but this may be the first concrete example of that I've seen.
@@robe2187 Yes but it doesnt mean theyre explaining it. It would be insanely hard to find footage that includes this interaction before CCC, see specifically that it wasnt a wakeup spd, then study it for the 1 Geif in CCX
I was recommended this video on a YT whim, but you've shown in 2 min that you definitely deserve that subscription. Your editing and transitions are on a different level with the blending!
The transition at 0:27 is so well done! From the capcom cup stage with the fancy costumes to the training lab with the default outfits, synced with the music transition on Zangief's theme! As if we are about to scientifically breakdown a real scenario, which is indeed what takes place. Superb job.
Man that's crazy! I watched this match and I was like "WAIT WHAT? SPD has DP invincibility?" SnakeEyez probably has more hidden tech that he's not gonna reveal.
Tbh that tech exist since SF4, maybe even Hugo can do it in 3s iirc. When you're a grappler that's something you ABSOLUTELY need to learn, I'm surprised people didn't know this technique
I think I recall seeing chat telling Daigo about this tech, and Daigo said this is so DAMN hard that he cannot do it consistently in real match. Kudos to Snake Eyez, what a legend.
Unsurprising coming from the guy who also mains Potemkin. IIRC Potemkin has a pretty challenging tech input-wise where he can cancel HPB into a Buster, taking advantage of the invincibility of the super to ignore a hit, allowing the Buster to land guaranteed and making it a good wake-up 'reversal'. It's pretty similar.
I wish that with 6 months of prep, that snake eyez would have at least had a pocket character for a high tier and for fuudo and xian. Nice that he still won 3 matches but it would have been great to see him in top 16.
Bro, that was like 4 frames of jump frames he had to input that. Sure, not a just frame, but goddamn that’s a tight window. You couldn’t even see him do it and even the commentators didn’t detect it. What a god
I saw this live earlier i'm like WTF, how the hell it was not thrown like me always when an opponent did it to me?? This is an awesome tech that i gotta learn for my gief... 😱😁😃 SNAKEYEZ is on a whole different level of Gief. Too bad Fuudo and Xian is on the same bracket and beat him...
Snake and Megaman have to be 2 of the best Zangief players in SF history. When Snake is in his bag, WATCH TF OUT. Dude makes some of the craziest reads and has some of the best reactions. Everyone is lucky Gief isnt top tier.. if he was. Just give the trophy to Snake.
This vid is so well edited and put together , Thank You for the breakdown I would have been in training mode for hours trying to figure this out and understand why it worked. Im hooked and need more breakdowns like this
Jump cancel was something shown a good while ago to deal with luke throw chains. I'm still not very good at it. Snake Eyez is still the #1 reason I learned SF and play Gief.
Actually makes me think if he whiffed the kick in the first place specifically for this situation. Would have been a useful mind game to do in the lead on the ending of a game.
i think i saw siberian lab do a tutorial on how spd is throw invicible if the timing is late...basically cacelling the up input from the spd into the spd
too bad he didn't make it to top 16. i would love for him to make some players stressful against him there. but oh well he unfortunately lost to both xian and Fuudo. He is a menace.
*Rolls up sleeves* gd now I gotta go in training mode and lock down jump cancel SPDs. I've only been using jump cancel lariats in SFIV and skipped most of SFV competitively.
