Me encanta que Mena juegue con Zangief, o sea, un campeon del evo usandolo, es algo que quiero ver en un torneo, definitivamente, pero aún yo que soy nadie veo que comete errores enormes... Todavía le falta adaptarse al perosnaje, espero que pueda sacarle todo el jugo y se pueda procalamar campeon una vez más usandolo
Yeah both options they did are actual option selects When someone light punch/kick drive rush cancels, you can EX DP as soon as they turn green, and most of the time it works because nothing beats it. Gief however is the only exception to this where he can call out the EX DP with a level 1 as an actual option select in that situation, MenaRD has done this to other pros like Daigo, Tokido etc
@@mukburbur696 Button into DR people tend to DP os so they don't get plus frames. If you know someone has a habit of getting out of DR button since it jails you can use Gief's air super since a DP leaves people in the air.
@@crimsonraiza3633 right, but that’s not an option select no? my understanding of an OS is that it’s a certain situation in which two options can be executed close to or in some cases at the same time and will cover more than one option. for example the reversal OS that rashid does here, the reversal only comes out on non-true blockstrings after drc. so my question is, what is the other “option” for gief here that makes his lv1, one of two options in an OS? edit: to add, your explanation implies that gief’s level 1 here is a read, not an OS
@@mukburbur696 Yeah that's my bad, you're correct about what an option select actually is I just misunderstood / misworded it pretty badly in the moment What I meant was that it's just an option that Gief has as a read in that specific situation
This video sadly shows something a lot of players seem to have trained themselves to do: NEVER use critical arts, or anything more than is exactly needed to get the job done. Don't be flashy, even when there's no risk in doing so. When Menard was down to no HP, and had a critical art ready, he just kept trying to do jabs. It makes sense from a training aspect, but it's not as enjoyable to watch when no one breaks out a cool move over a conservative one. I have literally watched dozens of these types of videos. Akuma gets used to death in most of them. The number of raging demons I've seen remains at zero, except one video that was specifically about one player using them.
I agree, but i had a longer reason i was gonna say why i do; however, tldr; its a 2D fighter. Optimal is simply rinse and repeat. So they do the same setups which also include then holding on to meter or simply not being flashy unless they are super comfortable with their opponent.
1:04 WHAAATTTT!!!!???? THIS WAS INSANE!
that beats ex dps!?
@@menmabmx1995because there are normal invincible moves and super duper ultra extra invencible moves… lol😂😂😂
Sheesh Mena's Zangief is insane 😮
Big Bird's Rashid is the actual insane one😂
@@MandySweiss Sure thing, but gief against Rashid, common.
*Mena* is insane, regardless of what character he plays with
So insane, he barely won 4-3 going to the last round. By your comment I wouldve expected a 4-0
Zangief players deserve respect. No projectiles to hide behind. You need skill to be great with him.
9:33 ugh? He walked like “Ima let it slide this one time homie. Go ahead and block.”
Rashid meter build is insane
1:02 THE READS!
Epic battle 😬👍🏽🔥
Given that the rest of Rashid's kit is very very good, IDK that he needs the level 2 to that easy to get / set up / abuse.

5:50
Zangief: It's time to get serious.
Rashid: Nah let's mess around a little bit more.
El bigbird es buenísimo con ese esta pareja la cosa que duro mena se está puliendo al máximo con sangee ❤🇩🇴
Le gano arañando pero gano jajajaja tiene mucha debilidad cuando lo arrinconan en una esquina
@@henrylove4916loco Rashid es difícil cuando estas exhausto y con ese level 2 en la esquina.
@@henrylove4916considerando que Big Bead es el actual 2 lugar del Evo (casi venciendo a Punk) te parece poco?
He was a Birdie player in sf5 this this isnt a hugr surprise.
You believe Birdie to be a grappler I presume?
1:06 OOH SHIIIII!
1:03 wtf, is that an option select or he just gambling? xD

hm, can you explain how giefs lv1 is an OS? where exactly is it that the input would not register if the opponent does not ex reversal?

Nice set, still Gief feels like a gimmick. MenaRD got really lucky to win a few of those rounds
