Nothing more annoying than people making excuses for their favourite players. PRrog got wrecked. totally outclassed and outplayed. god-like reads by stupendous.
Snake Eyez doesn't suck at SF5, he's going through a character crisis. Every WNF fight he played as Gief he won. Stu won WNF one time. Last time they did a Gief mirror match Snake beat him. You're exaggerating kid.
It was a pretty hard match up in 4 simply because they had to play footsie, and a good zangief wins trades because he has higher health. I still think this is a struggle for Balrog simply because Zangief's V-skill nullifies the dash punches. Balrog has to put in A LOT more work imo for this MU
I can definitely agree especially when Capcom really went out of their way to remove some of the zoning tools that made Rog ridiculous in SF4. Definitely think the match is fair though, just slow and methodical.
I was thinking about the armor too but since KKR gives the dash punches built in mixup I think it's not too bad of a guess from Rog. Cr.jab seems like a problem though but if you can figure your way around it the match should boil down to both player's patience.
How does the music change all way time? Is it because the editor changed it all the time? Even though at the end of the round it speeds up. If he even cut the music to that part he has really thinks about details. Or is there another way to change the music?
I've been saying how much trouble Balrog has against grapplers. Alex and Laura can pull off something similar. EG Alex f.HP is plus 3 on block guaranteeing a powerbomb. Your only choice as Balrog is to backdash or jump. Alex could however throw and air knee smash instead of the powerbomb or a CC atk. :(
Crazy how its still very rough in SF5 even for the high ranking players they don't escape danger as long as they play opponents on their own level they still can lose back and forth and get perfects on each other...they are just faster, have more techniques, blocking and strategy they can still get destroyed quickly by other opponents they have to face losing almost as much as much newer players..
Gief's v-skill limits Rog's options so damn much, very hard match-up, I believe PR Rog will most likely use Necalli against Gief during tournaments. But Stu is such a cool guy, whenever he found something rog couldn't deal with, he kept using that over and over for rog to learn how to counter it.
This is the problem with SF players they complain it's a bad matchup because rog can't mash buttons in giefs face. Nobody on the entire roster can mash buttons in giefs face it's a throw character for Goodness sake obviously random ass charge ins are going to be punished SF players are so used to having the game played for you because of over simplicity. Instead just play smart and choose your buttons. If you think gief is bad you should try fighting an iron tager that will teach you everything you need to know in this match up gief will be a fucking cake walk compared to a tager
holy shit best geif I've seen in sf5 stupendous just needs to work on the mental side of his game a bit he was near perfect till rog hit the CA around 5 min mark then he started dropping and missing a few punishes but still was excellent hope to see him in top 16 at Evo and his the hope for geif keep pushing
Damian Erasmus ik im just saying Snake Eyes because he and Itabashi i think its spelled like that brought attention to gief Snake Eyes has the best zangief in the world
+Tyrese Lyons I know of snake eyes but coz geif is so crap in sfv he doesn't play him much but I dropped that comment a while ago the best geif's for me atm 1 Itabashi zangeif 2 stupendous 3 snake eyes
Damian Erasmus nah I reckon snake eyez is still he best. He's actually versed stupendous before and one. His footsies game is too good. But stupendous does indeed have insane reads but snake eyez has em too
Stupendous makes Gief seems like a viable character. Amazing execution and reads. PR seemed kinda off, playing on full tilt. But Stupendous was clearly the best player on this compilation, bad MU or not.
How does he Do zangiefs EX attack? The russian pole driver or what it's Called, i Can only Do it after A jump, because of the inputs, how to stay grounded?
TBT not even going to lie. I think most sf4 players just don't know how to approach this game well. We can't really call Zangief a crap character just yet, and new generation players have all the time in the world to dissect SFV.
Definitely one of Rog's nightmare MU's. V-Skill negates almost everything Rog wants to do and like always, SPD punishes bad Dash punches. Not to mention Gief' cr.Jab and st. Fierce. Rog has to struggle to keep Gief out at all costs and every approach can be punished in some way. The MU is generally boring and way harder on Rog. Might be a legit 7-3 Gief. There is only so much PR Rog can really do in this MU.
+PhreezePhoenix Balrog has to get close to do damage. If zangief uses iron body at the right timing zangief can grab him every time without really taking damage.
I guess it's a bad matchup for balrog, zangief lp and other range normals don't let balrog get close to do his mix ups and combos. And zangief v skill it's a good way to stop balrog dash punches.
I am in actual tears right now, that Gief performance was beautiful.
Damn, Stupendous is just planting Balrog Trees left and right.
fuck up
you r right Nathan, seriously I think infiltration will hide gief as secret hakan again vs PR rog.
Nathan Cannon Jajaja
love how he says "annoying bastard..." seems like he cant do anything against him so rog is annoyed lol
Balrog players deserve Gief matchups, give them a taste of their own medicine
Nothing more annoying than people making excuses for their favourite players. PRrog got wrecked. totally outclassed and outplayed. god-like reads by stupendous.
Super Muna exactly!
I had to give the STANK eye on that first match (level above "stink"). I've never seen a Gief player get THAT deep in someone's head like that.
After first game I screamed "WHAT THE HELL!" and my voice echoed with balrogs.
Always good to see a strong Gief. Stupendous made some insane reads.
yeah...so far the best Gief I've seen
I am sorry to SneakEyes, but I have to second this. Totally.
maybe itazan but never SneakEyes, he sucks in SF5
Snake Eyez doesn't suck at SF5, he's going through a character crisis. Every WNF fight he played as Gief he won. Stu won WNF one time. Last time they did a Gief mirror match Snake beat him. You're exaggerating kid.
but Snake Eyez can't seem to beat anyone else right now. This was te best Gief showing I have seen.
damn I've never seen PR BALROG lose like this
Stupendous please father my future children and make them muscle power machines.
the guy is skinny af.....
+Mitsuba lmao bruh
Isnt giefs alt costume is based off macho man(randy savage)
+Malachi Berden OOOH Yea lol
+RiNNEGAN ZoMBIE lol i just noticed that
14:35 was too funny. It's like Stupendous wasn't taking this seriously. XD
Two of my favorite SFV fighters.
Step into the Slim Jim. Ooooo yeeeeaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!
Macho man randy savage the most hype wrestler!
His rivalry with Hulk Hogan was legendary.
+Braixen BC he savec all of us from the rapture.
From 13:40 to about 13:58... I literally cried laughing.
Gief' done damn near did every slam in his arsenal.
Don't think the match up is too bad. Just feel that PR-Balrog doesn't understand it very well.
I agree. Plus I think he's still learning this different Boxer in V; in a few months he'll probably be lethal.
It was a pretty hard match up in 4 simply because they had to play footsie, and a good zangief wins trades because he has higher health. I still think this is a struggle for Balrog simply because Zangief's V-skill nullifies the dash punches. Balrog has to put in A LOT more work imo for this MU
It's just way easier to win as Zangief, PR Rog just needs to put in the work to level the playing field.
I can definitely agree especially when Capcom really went out of their way to remove some of the zoning tools that made Rog ridiculous in SF4. Definitely think the match is fair though, just slow and methodical.
I was thinking about the armor too but since KKR gives the dash punches built in mixup I think it's not too bad of a guess from Rog. Cr.jab seems like a problem though but if you can figure your way around it the match should boil down to both player's patience.
I don't know if it's my blatant fanboyism for PR Rog talking or not, but this MU looks almost impossible for Balrog. lol
yes it is
www.eventhubs.com/tiers/sf5/character/zangief/
Lol omg I loved the almost trolling way that Geif was rapid mashing low LP... hilarious how obvious it was in Rog's head! 😂
I watched 35 secs and its good enough for me. Gief... Daaaaaaaaamn
Balrog sounds so sad when he misses a grab :[
Gief just toying
That 2nd round of the first game....Jesus christ he was in PR Rogs head reading that book.....
1:04
"WHAT THE HEEELLLL?"
NO REALLY, WHAT THE FUCK WAS HAPPENING PR ROG?
There's nothing like watching an elite Gief.
that is so cool makin Zangief look like Macho Man Randy Savage! 😀👍👍
Dude, I just had time to watch the first game. Best Zangief round I've seen in 5 (One of the only I've seen).
Super destroyed.
What a Zangief this Stupendous is in the league with Snake Eyes...its like its Snake Eye's best student...
those jabs at 15:20 lmao wow they add up quick
I lost count of how many times I said oh my gaawd, what a gief!
Awesome piledriver
How does the music change all way time? Is it because the editor changed it all the time? Even though at the end of the round it speeds up. If he even cut the music to that part he has really thinks about details.
Or is there another way to change the music?
Everyone complained that they got rid of Banishing Flat and ignored the fact that 'Gief essentially got a 10 frame parry instead.
I've been saying how much trouble Balrog has against grapplers. Alex and Laura can pull off something similar. EG Alex f.HP is plus 3 on block guaranteeing a powerbomb. Your only choice as Balrog is to backdash or jump. Alex could however throw and air knee smash instead of the powerbomb or a CC atk. :(
I knew geifs cr.lp was good...I didn't know it was THAT GOOOOOOOD
Crazy how its still very rough in SF5 even for the high ranking players they don't escape danger as long as they play opponents on their own level they still can lose back and forth and get perfects on each other...they are just faster, have more techniques, blocking and strategy they can still get destroyed quickly by other opponents they have to face losing almost as much as much newer players..
I love how Zangief looks like Randy Macho Man Savage.
Love that macho man style costume
That first game was fucking crazy holy shit.
as a Balrog player, I can say this match up is VERY annoying for Balrog
Games_of_ Hell but not impossible
Lmao, his knockout scream though
Love it. This Gief churned more butter than an entire Amish village.
"Imma plant me a boxer tree!"
"Get yo ass in this pocket!" Geif says to Balrog
That first round was some of the most gdlk shit I've ever seen with sfv gief
That first match PRROG looked free
looked free?
+Erron Black Meaning it looked like it was a free win for Stupendous, which it was. Stupendous made PRRog look like a beginner.
javier sigala Thank you!
I bet Balrog is quite a free man in his mind though. A philosopher. A
bit like Chris Eubank.
Let the muscle power come back to life!
Gief's v-skill limits Rog's options so damn much, very hard match-up, I believe PR Rog will most likely use Necalli against Gief during tournaments. But Stu is such a cool guy, whenever he found something rog couldn't deal with, he kept using that over and over for rog to learn how to counter it.
OoooooooOooo yyyyeeeaaahhh!!!!!
Wish I could like this more than once!
Best Zangief I've ever seen. Makes me want to play him
dont be a drone this is just a horrible mu in this game full of idiots
uAintBoutDat Lif3 Null and void comment
+ZachDaHater1 lol
This is the problem with SF players they complain it's a bad matchup because rog can't mash buttons in giefs face.

Y so dum tho
Run on sentence madness
Besides the obvious autism in this comment, what's a tager
AsterDXZ grappler from blazblue, a really shitty fighting game for weebs
Dude dont remind me of tager. I feel like i am in the waiting room of the ER when i am fighting tager.
what is the name of the theme in the first part of video?
after a point you can see the disrespect from that gief
LOL
Balrog walking into everything.
this gief presses all the right buttons at all the right times
holy shit best geif I've seen in sf5 stupendous just needs to work on the mental side of his game a bit he was near perfect till rog hit the CA around 5 min mark then he started dropping and missing a few punishes but still was excellent hope to see him in top 16 at Evo and his the hope for geif keep pushing
Best gief goes to snake eyes bro search him up
+Tyrese Lyons snake eyes has been using Alex and Ryu
Damian Erasmus ik im just saying Snake Eyes because he and Itabashi i think its spelled like that brought attention to gief Snake Eyes has the best zangief in the world
+Tyrese Lyons I know of snake eyes but coz geif is so crap in sfv he doesn't play him much but I dropped that comment a while ago the best geif's for me atm
1 Itabashi zangeif
2 stupendous
3 snake eyes
Damian Erasmus nah I reckon snake eyez is still he best. He's actually versed stupendous before and one. His footsies game is too good. But stupendous does indeed have insane reads but snake eyez has em too
saw a video where prrog was wrecking wolfkrone,then I stumble on to this and he's getting wrecked..😂😂✌
This is actually like really sad to watch. This has to be the only match up in this game that Gief absolutely just destroys LOL
Spamming the "slap to the balls" a little bit there.
5:52 i could see eduardo saying that out loud in his room lol.
Who's theme song plays at 7:42 it was super chillax
DAYUM!!! Never thought id see rog loose like this! IS THIS SNAKE EYEZ SECOND ACCOUNT OR SOMETHIN?! IF IT AINT THIS GUY NEEDS TO GO TO EVO
This honestly is just a REALLY BAD Match up for Boxer. Don't be suprised when you see many top level balrogs losing to zangief.
This is a bad matchup for rog because if his rush oubch is blocked he is in a perfect place to get spd'd.
stupendous is actually snake eyez's apprentice.
freemanfanmao that is sick
Stupendous role playing as SAVAGE! (^"^)
lovin' that 'gief skin... like a juiced up randy savage.
In all honesty I think this would've worked better with Alex.
The skin I mean
+IJustSneezed i wish Alex got the NWO shirt
Stupendous has the most entertaining Gief I've ever seen.
Holy shit.
Zangief and Guile are nightmares for Balrog
blarog>guile
negative
This guy is fcking STUPENDOUS with Zang *-------*
That gief is monster....
Sit down. Be humble was all I could hear every-time Gief pile-drove Balrog
Damn forget charging in this matchup, might as well try to outfootsie gief while charging for a full final tap xD
Stupendous makes Gief seems like a viable character. Amazing execution and reads. PR seemed kinda off, playing on full tilt. But Stupendous was clearly the best player on this compilation, bad MU or not.
Jesus what a geif, also this match up looks ridiculous for both plays but more so for balrog imo
How does he Do zangiefs EX attack? The russian pole driver or what it's Called, i Can only Do it after A jump, because of the inputs, how to stay grounded?
I don't why, but PR Rog is not comboing and he's not punishing jump-ins in this matchup.
That Zangief player just does the same move over and over
9:31-10:02, that's a heartbreaker
it seems that snake eyes and pr balrog are having problems with there best characters thats a big problem
This Gief is great.
wtf why Rog no mash in V-Trigger.....
I just realised that Gief says "Nope" in russian when he flexes .-.
Yeah, I translated that and it's true.
Translation:
Неа!
why is randy savage in street fighter?
TBT not even going to lie. I think most sf4 players just don't know how to approach this game well. We can't really call Zangief a crap character just yet, and new generation players have all the time in the world to dissect SFV.
Here's the Macho Man!
the best Zief i have ever seen
this match is looking ST levels of oppressive for Rog lol
perfect video quality
snake eyes taking notes...
got damn
@9:39 LMAO he wanted to kill with an instant OH so bad, ended up losing the round. hahaha
9:29 super nice comeback
Anyone know the theme at 7:41? I can't think of the name.
Nvm I found it. Beach theme alternate version.
lord rog my main! I guess I can't go to a wnf cuz stupendous is there lol
Definitely one of Rog's nightmare MU's. V-Skill negates almost everything Rog wants to do and like always, SPD punishes bad Dash punches. Not to mention Gief' cr.Jab and st. Fierce.

There is only so much PR Rog can really do in this MU.
Rofl Zangief looks like Macho man Randy Savage :D
This match up is so bad. It's hilarious. lol
Can u explain why its bad?
+PhreezePhoenix did you watch the video?
+PhreezePhoenix Balrog has to get close to do damage. If zangief uses iron body at the right timing zangief can grab him every time without really taking damage.
+PhreezePhoenix And balrog has to charge his attacks before he really can do damage fast. In that process zangief can dash at him and grapple.
+stuntbounce literally thats what happened in the match. lol
I guess it's a bad matchup for balrog, zangief lp and other range normals don't let balrog get close to do his mix ups and combos. And zangief v skill it's a good way to stop balrog dash punches.
I bet Rog is hoping he never runs into Stupendous @ a major...
Or any Gief for that matter, but I would wager a bet that stupendous is better than Snake-Eyes and possibly Itibashi (spelling?) as well
It's Itabashi, if you were asking. Sometimes just goes with Itazan
omfg that first round
yup thats prrog his mix ups i can tell but this is kinda old hes a diamond now
simply amazing lol
