Some of the best air throwing, ex fireballs and perfect parry's I've seen in sf6. This a huge level up on Jabhim's part since capcom cup. This was excellent.
Been following Tokido's career since Street Fighter 4 tournaments, and he is definitely a Grandmaster in the Street Fighter world, alongside with other players like Diago Umehara. As a South African, I must say this fight made me happy to see South Africa being represented in this. Well done Jabhim.

This was amazing... so far one of the best Chun I saw in SF6.... beating Tokido with style, that's really something.... I feel SF6 will bring lots of fresh blood into the scene. super exciting.
@@dav1dgear my man knew exactly when to DI, sometimes the window is just too small for a reaction , specially when youre already commited to doing something else
@mouhalo nah not really 4:24, 6:04, 10:04, 11:42, 14:36, 15:16, 18:08, tokido got hit squarely no counter or anything so it means he just stays there and eats that DI. That is 7 mistake a mistake each round means he throws a way 3 and a half match. That is not good DI from chunli, that is Ken slow reaction. 😅
@@dav1dgear would your opponent win if you weren’t making mistakes? Would you win if you couldn’t exploit your opponents weaknesses? I don’t have nos excuses for toki, none .
2 perfect rounds vs Tokido in the same match, when was the last time that happened?! SF6 is great fun to watch in these high level games, very unpredictable and plenty of options allowing players to show their skill.
This is my favourite Street Fighter 6 set so far. Absolutely amazing. I could feel the intention and drive to win from both sides. I'm trying not to sound cheesy, but it's incredible when the competitors' spirit shows through the characters on screen.
I have never seen anyone play Chun Li at that level. I guess this is the result of extreme talent coupled with hours and hours of playtime. The best match I've ever seen. Simply amazing.
@@brekthruyeah the people that feel they need to throw out hyperbole to get attention are tiresome😒 how many times you think this guy has written/said "this was the best x of all time" or "I have never seen this before in my life blabla"?

@@Sakaki98 this hyperbole bs runs rampant all over the social media, and media and internet at large. I have known people like that who always have to exagerrate every story, invent facts to make it sound cooler, and everytime they come home from a superhero movie it was "the best movie I've ever seen" and the game last night was "the best game of all time". And on the flipside, if they dont like Coldplay or whichever popular band, or Simpsons or whichever popular show, it is of course the WORST band or video game or tv show OF ALL TIME. If we keep using the expression "greatest of all time" this liberally for every little thing (this bowel movement I had this morning was the best I ever had) these words lose all meaning. Am I being a hater for just wishing for a bit more of a nuanced discourse and that we use language at a higher stylistic level than that to portray more complex contexts? Not everything has to be greatest or worst of all time. I mean even Simpsons comic book guy atleast gave some arguments behind his opinions. Would you think my opinion was valid if i had only seen one movie in my whole life, and then was gushing over how it was the greatest movie of all time, would that be a sensible statement?
Ingrained and Engraved Let the message about Christ, in all its richness, fill your lives. Teach and counsel each other with all the wisdom he gives. Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts. (Colossians 3:16) It’s interesting how our priorities can change. That’s why Bible memorization is so important. We have only so much room in our minds. Just as computers have a specific amount of memory to hold information, we have only so much memory in the minds that God has given us. So many of us know the latest gossip about Hollywood celebrities, or we can recite sports statistics or other interesting facts. But are we taking the time to fill our minds with the Word of God? When we get God’s Word into our minds, it will stay with us forever. And when we’re tempted, we’ll have it to recall and use. For instance, when the devil temped Jesus in the wilderness, Jesus defended Himself again and again with the Scriptures. And the apostle Paul referred to God’s Word as “the sword of the Spirit” (Ephesians 6:17) The psalmist wrote, “I have hidden your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you” (Psalm 119:11) This is essentially saying that our hearts will be kept by God’s Word because we keep God’s Word in our hearts. Let’s not waste our memory banks. Let’s fill them with important information. It’s great to carry the Bible in your pocket, backpack, or purse. It’s also great to have it on your phone. But the best place to carry the Bible is in your heart
This is my first time watching any Street Fighter content. I don't even know who the players are. But let me tell you, this was exciting! From the opening bell to the final match, that was his entertaining and exciting as it can get!
The surprised jump on Tokido’s face when that last level 3 went out was amazing. It is not fuckin’ easy to catch that man off guard. Fucking incredible play from Jabhim. Really looking forward to this rematch once Akuma releases. Toki’s gonna be WILD this game.
Tokido looking weak af in this game akuma ain’t gonna change anything. He was jumping way to much looked like a plat playing and dropping and combos . Sad to see he’s been dominate for a long time but he’s looking washed
Is that what you call a huge moment for Africa one of them most corrupt countries in the world where there most the population die of lack of food or basic medicine in the thousands everyday yet a win at a game is a success? Have you lost the plot?
@@hasan1980hb It was a huge moment for South Africa though. You rarely see them in pro-level FGC let alone toppling Tokido--Japan's legend and former multiple world champ of SF.
What amazed me from Jabhim is that it's the first Chun that I see that could either do spacing and aggressive plays in a good rhythm. Mad GG to him ! Sad for Tokido but man that was such a beautiful match
Congratulations to Jabhim. Well played against a player a calbur of Tokido. Love the crowd support for the man and the respect given Tokido afterwards 😊
Saw this live on the stream earlier, Tokido's expression after that level 3 Chun-Li's super in the final match was priceless and the highlight of this whole tournament! 😂
I swear this is my favorite tournament video. The energy is ridiculous, I get hyped just watching it. If this video doesn’t make you wanna play Street Fighter 6, then you cray cray
The title kind of spoils the match, but it got me to watch it. I saw Tokido and Jabhim, who I only know as one of the African players who went 0-5 at Capcom Cup, and was like "No way. I've gotta watch this,"
So bizarre seeing Tokido wakeup DP/Super 4 times in just the first couple games of the set. He was playing like it was SF4 and he had FADC. It did not work a single time yet he just kept throwing it out. The nerves must have been absolutely insane for him to do all of that while also missing very easy punishes on blocked supers and such
Or he threw it and didn't care about winning infront of a crowd that went so radio silent everytime he done something right. Felt like he was labbing more than playing.
Street Fighter turned me into a gamer at the young age of 6-7. I’d go to a corner store with my mom and an original Street Fighter arcade machine was in there. My eyes were level with the joystick and I’d ask my mom for a quarter. Hoping I could play just one game. And when I couldn’t play it, I’d watch the intro and the demo play totally entranced. 1989-1990.. so amazing to still see these characters , the moves. Still think it’s amazing!
I saw that Tokido did that neutral jump twice and I liked that Jabhim just stayed patient there not walking into any shenanigans. Also dude must have been working hard in the Fight Lab on "switching sides" in a fight because d*mn he was on point with that!
Yep ...as a South African it's great seeing this clip ...Street fighter 2 was n still is the most popular game in the townships....In the early mid 90's ' as kids used to play it along with Mortal Kombat games .
@@Darkness-ie2yl You don't even know if Sagat and Akuma are going to be exactly what Tokido and Bonchan expect they're going to be. Plus SF6's new mechanics may well invalidate some of the old SF5 strats.
African fans are super respectful. Sure they’re cheering for their local hero but they’re still applauding everytime Tokido wins a game or does something special
I love and have maximum respect for Tokido, Daigo and all "old era" live legends of fighting games, but the new generation is coming with great power and it will be very hard to beat them. I feel so lucky to live this 🙂
Don’t count out these “old guys” yet. The games still new, they will eventually start dominating. Eventually age will win but most are not even 40 years old yet and they have decades of experience of winning already.
Thank you, thank you,thank you, for winning the match using my favorite character, Chun-Li. It was amazing match, and also amazing SF6 players, especially Chun-Li player. Thank you 💙
well, jabhim is like the level 8 computer himself, he punished tokido hard and didn't miss the combo once he got it. Not to mention he parried perfectly many times during the last few games was insane, his anti air was really something too. I'm a fan of tokido, but I think jabhim is stronger this time.
I’ve never been the one to watch other people play games but this had my heart racing! I wanted to learn how to play better and I’m blown away by the levels you put can achieve and get to! Well done to both guys and using Chun-Li so skillfully is just 🎯🎯🎯
It’s crazy how core fundamentals of thus game can be used to change the outcomes of fights even against pro players. The devs really did something very smart with thus game’s mechanics.
This made me a proud South African gamer.. We always play on high ping and lagg is a daily experience.. But to see someone on a stage like this.. I'm inspired❤️💯💪🏽
Bro if you thought Tokido has nerves this fight, that is an insane statement to make. Everyone and they momma know Tokido was just playing a bot for whatever reason lol
Holy moley...amazing comeback from Tokido. About two slivers of life left, and he turns it around. Brilliant. Equally brilliant play from Jahbim as well...jeez. Amazing play by Jahbim as well pullang that perfect on Tokido. 😮
Definitely didn't look like the usual Tokido performance here, but in the end, it doesn't matter. Everyone knows we won't see true Tokido until Akuma is here.
Like 1000 VS 1 in there. It's good to see Chun did well in tournament. I think Tokido is still waiting for his Akuma to release. And it's good to see Jahbim respect Tokido at the end of the match, good sportsmanship is very important.
1000 vs 1🤔at their level of competition they know how to block out the crowd noise from their heads,these are professional gamers,not your average joe.A win is a win stop with the oh he won cause of the crowd stuff
Crowd was insane, really really beautiful fight. I really appreciated Jahbim paying respects to Tokido at the end of the match
Pure class
The entire fight I was worried that he may not pay his respects. Really glad he did. Tokido also paid respects. Great ending.
Why would you think he wouldn't pay his respect?... wow

Not to mention he parried perfectly many times during the last few games was insane, his anti air was really something too. I'm a fan of tokido, but I think jabhim is stronger this time.
I’ve never been the one to watch other people play games but this had my heart racing! I wanted to learn how to play better and I’m blown away by the levels you put can achieve and get to! Well done to both guys and using Chun-Li so skillfully is just 🎯🎯🎯
Such an amazing set. I’d be terrified to go up against these titans.
It’s crazy how core fundamentals of thus game can be used to change the outcomes of fights even against pro players. The devs really did something very smart with thus game’s mechanics.
Jabhim's decision making was just so on point, good lord
This made me a proud South African gamer.. We always play on high ping and lagg is a daily experience.. But to see someone on a stage like this.. I'm inspired❤️💯💪🏽
Not gonna lie bro, the crowed looks like paid actors lmao.
I come back to see this every once in a while just one of my favorites.. the thing that made the difference is the crowed, amazing!!
Bro if you thought Tokido has nerves this fight, that is an insane statement to make. Everyone and they momma know Tokido was just playing a bot for whatever reason lol
@14:44 OHHHHHH MY DAYS!! that round was amazing....PERFECT!!!
Jabhim is the type of guy that look at tier lists and turn them upside down.
Chun is easily high tier lol
@Fozes no one ranked her S and even then she was never considered a high A tier. Ken is supposedly S but it didnt stop him
@@GamingCentralTV1 Chun is difficult to use optimally, but her ceiling is really high. In the right hands she's easily a solid A tier at least.
Jahbim refuses to use his block button is one of lifes greatest mysteries
Too much hype! 🤩😛😜🤪😵💫🤯🥳🤠 One of the best matches yet.
I know nothing about these tournaments but wow the crowd was so hyped
Shimmy at 15:00 was crazy my man jabhim was cooking‼️
Perfect parry’s on point from him throughout the whole set too
Yeah that shimmy was cold
I got zoomed here from checking out Tekken 8 vids and this was the most hype fucken shit I've seen in years
Wow he is insanely good love the new faces of sf6
Holy moley...amazing comeback from Tokido. About two slivers of life left, and he turns it around. Brilliant. Equally brilliant play from Jahbim as well...jeez. Amazing play by Jahbim as well pullang that perfect on Tokido. 😮
Ambos jugaron a un gran nivel, pero la presión del público tuvo un gran peso para el japonés.
What a hell of a set! I was at the edge of my seat at the end there
2:53 not only he dropped the combo, but also decided to wake up with a special.
That's platinum lvl gameplay. 😂😂
I still love Tokido
And what about all the DI he got hit with? Must be the nerve, on his online match he usually counter DI with another DI.
It genuinely seems suspicious to me that he's playing so badly.
@@EleventhFloorBelfry maybe also because he's clearly playing an away match :)
You guys have never been in a high stakes offline tournament have you?
Really cringe reading this shit
This was🔥🔥🔥🔥. Love to see when a country’s community gets behind the players and it culminates in an epic win
Definitely didn't look like the usual Tokido performance here, but in the end, it doesn't matter. Everyone knows we won't see true Tokido until Akuma is here.
Spring 2024, we can wait.
@@KemetShamar We'll see in the spring. End of story ;)
@@KemetShamarThey don't realise that it comes across that Tokido is carried by Akuma, too.
What A comeback by Chun Li main 😳😱😱
Street Fighter South Africa arc begins
Some great walk unders by Jabhim. That's how you play an aggressive Ken.
Like 1000 VS 1 in there. It's good to see Chun did well in tournament. I think Tokido is still waiting for his Akuma to release. And it's good to see Jahbim respect Tokido at the end of the match, good sportsmanship is very important.
just shush and praise the winner
1000 vs 1🤔at their level of competition they know how to block out the crowd noise from their heads,these are professional gamers,not your average joe.A win is a win stop with the oh he won cause of the crowd stuff
Good man doing the Japanese bow too. Respect to the culture that brought us gaming
All I heard was "another perfect parry!" The crowd support was EPIC..With a level 3 finish!! Sh^t was CRAZY! SALUTE
@5:53 WOOOOOOW!!! that win was amazing!!!! It's as if he KNEW Tokido would do a Shoryuken (Dragon Punch)
I don't care what no one says this is a beautiful match
Good to see my peoples getting into the FGC.
