All through season 1 there were so many people that would say things like "Just wait until Tokido's REAL main comes back" whenever he played in tournament. Him staying on Ken over Akuma is fucking hilarious to me.
@@Genito6You right, Akuma just happened to be top tier 9 times out of 10 lol. I think this is one of the handful of times where you could consider Ken better than him (he might not be considered better anymore, I don’t really know. I don’t pay much attention to tier lists and haven’t kept up with this season’s)
@@trippersigs2248 because he's been a akuma specialist for awhile. The only reason he's not picking akuma is because Ken is more stable with more health and he's more used to him. He might swap later when he figures him out. Punk just proved how powerful akuma can be though.
I love watching these analysis. I'm real new to the FGC and SF6 has been a blast. These videos provide the entertainment value of watching highly skilled players combined with a knowledge dump of why certain plays are made it. I've found it so helpful when applying logic to the situations I find myself in the game. Thanks Sajam! (:
Daigo's Akuma is so interesting to watch. Half of it is like Akuma is just standing there menacingly, the other half is the wildest callouts. And there's Jab > Forward Dash > ???, a combo to rival even the grindiest Evo and Capcom Cup champions.
I do like the change to Gief doing way more drive gauge damage, but I think someone in chat pointed out that maybe he's gaining too much at the same time.
In these demon days it's so cold inside so hard for drive gauge to survive you can't even trust the green you see because frame stop wants your inputs to leave When Gouki becomes reality You numb yourself and wake up level three So pick yourself up it's a brand new game So turn yourself around Don't burn yourself, turn yourself Turn yourself around To round one To round one To round one
1:18:11 people from Japan believe anti-airing is a skill that gets refined as you develop, so no high level players use air fireballs because they believe it will get countered anyway.
It'd be so dumb if they nerf Zangief just because pro players don't want to face him. They've let characters like Ken continue to be strong, even after the balance patch. Just let Zangief be strong for a little while.
I can’t wait for them to add Sakura so we can have another shoto nobody wants to play. Not necessarily her, but whichever the next worst one up the list is.
Is there going to be more of this? I love these videos! There's not a lot of enjoyment for me in watching SF6 without commentary, and Sajam is a great personality for it, too. And the gameplay is top notch of course
Hey sajam, at around 1:15:15 you say “[daigo’s] fundamental shoto play is just so good”. I wanted to know what you meant by that as I can see that daigo is a very good player but I’m wondering what part of his gameplay you consider to be fundamental to shotos. New to 2D fighters and have been playing shotos since I started so I’m curious what you think.
1:20:01 at this time, what did Sajam meant by leverless dp? did the crouch jab was daigo messing up the dp in a particular way that normally leverless do? I guess it was meant to be 323LP but daigo pressed LP on the 2 instead of the 3 and got hit because of that?
Would I be crazy for wanting Ed’s Forward HP to get buffed in a future patch? I’ve been picking him up off Brian F propaganda and I feel like that button is just lacking in purpose. It’s hyper-specific about confirms, not great on block, kinda slow for a move with no crush effects. At the very least, since he jumps, I’d like to see it be throw invul so you can DR meaty with it. Idk, I’m new to the boi, I’d appreciate anyone’s wisdom
Boohoo "X Character that is so strong and popular is so boring to watch" I mean...you don't have to watch? Or even better go smoke a regional with some random Character & change the meta
@@crownlesssking2812 Never complained about Akuma being strong. Just that everyone plays him. I'm not saying I want to see dhalsim every match, but it seems the FGC is so unoriginal these days. Also, found the Akuma player.
Going in on Daigo punishes never gets old, but C'mon man you gotta let Zangief breath a little. Gief been trash tier for so long, now that he's usable Sajam calling for the nerf hammer. Snake and Itazan been struggling for decades for this moment.

tokido has always picked top tier, never a char loyalist

It's so sad
@@666slateran666 This why its funny to me. Because people care for some reason who Tokido picks lol. Why do people care if he doesnt pick Akuma?

seeing bonchan throw air fireballs against yamaguchi after almost 2 hours of the most grounded akuma play ever caught me off guard

I haven't watched the entire video yet but I had to pop in and give a shout out to Magic Moste, you been killing it with the thumbnails as of late!
jump cuts to the whole FGC pointing up
slowly pans out to show it was Akuma all along
Great Days starts playing
“Burnout is catastrophic!”
Moke: “I burnout just to feel something”
He’s like the Japanese Noah the prodigy lol

I can't believe Drive Gauge made Block String routing interesting to me. This is a well-designed game.
The freeze frame at 57:50 is 💀
Akuma mirror is so fucked up, high damage and low health means they just explode each other so hard
Pause
Pause
I love it when akuma explodes on me
This is the content I hunger for!
about halfway through, and i just wanted to say that I am a Ryukichi believer, his play against Moke was phenomenal!!!
I do like the change to Gief doing way more drive gauge damage, but I think someone in chat pointed out that maybe he's gaining too much at the same time.
Love these, if you keep making them ill keep watching :)
1:08:40 yeah itazan has one of the strangest stick layouts i’ve seen someone use
why does it have two buttons on a downward slope😂
In these demon days
it's so cold inside
so hard for drive gauge to survive
you can't even trust the green you see
because frame stop wants your inputs to leave
When Gouki becomes reality
You numb yourself and wake up level three
So pick yourself up it's a brand new game
So turn yourself around
Don't burn yourself, turn yourself
Turn yourself around
To round one
To round one
To round one
babe wake up new topanga leguw watchalong just dropped

The last round of Ryukichi versus Moke was one of the sickest rounds of SF6 I've ever seen my lord
Thanks for doing this

Japanese players when Kobayan wins 😡
Japanese players when Itabashi loses 💨

Guarantee it’s either Sakura or Sean
Sakura is my main shoto. Speak for yourself
@@666slateran666The post also had a second sentence.
Sakura has what no other SF shoto has.
Waifu power. That makes her playable
@@nahuel3433High schooler waifu power? Sounds kinda messed up.
Bonchan's kill combo off of the Lvl 2 wallsplat was bHK, exDemonTatsu, ExDP on the bounce.
Bonchan goes with fastest fireball
Somebody must have slipped Michael's Secret Stuff into Yamaguchi's water bottle on Day 2
What blows my mind is that gachikun can't make Topanga finals, but got third in capcom cup. What a stacked tournament.
the fire coming out of akuma’s hands
The problem w air fireball is that you can react to some of them, jump over the air fireball and get a punish counter jump in
Is there going to be more of this? I love these videos! There's not a lot of enjoyment for me in watching SF6 without commentary, and Sajam is a great personality for it, too. And the gameplay is top notch of course
Goated thumbnail
It’s not a Sajam watch party without roasting Daigo
Will you be uploading your viewing of the other groups? I'm really enjoying your insights
Nice Gorillaz reference

Dang Tokido got smoked. Proof Ken isn't top tier.
Fujimura vs Kakeru was the most one-sided, near draw I've ever seen.

46:50 happy pride kinda mix? am i mishearing that lol
"linking tatsu to supers"
*ryu crying in EX tatsu in the corner*
Ah but regular tatsu into meaty light fireball is a blessing
59:48
that's a paddlin'
Oops all shotos bracket
Came for the Gorillaz reference, stayed for the awesome vid :)
man moke is him
Moke is fun to watch
Tokido not going to win with Ken..he just don’t seem Ken enough
Woah he predicted it his bison combos do kinda suck.
Topanga League go brr
Somebody is a gorillaz fan
Is just been 2 months since Akuma’s release and I’m already tired of seeing him cause I know It’s time to sweat my balls off
Sticking with Ken is sad to me, hes definitely not nearly as good as he was. Akuma is cheap
Akuma nearly every match is so boring.
Then you should watch a little closer. Each Akuma played differently than the others in this video
Boohoo "X Character that is so strong and popular is so boring to watch" I mean...you don't have to watch? Or even better go smoke a regional with some random Character & change the meta
@@crownlesssking2812 Never complained about Akuma being strong. Just that everyone plays him. I'm not saying I want to see dhalsim every match, but it seems the FGC is so unoriginal these days.
Also, found the Akuma player.
Going in on Daigo punishes never gets old, but C'mon man you gotta let Zangief breath a little. Gief been trash tier for so long, now that he's usable Sajam calling for the nerf hammer. Snake and Itazan been struggling for decades for this moment.
Him saying that he thinks Gief's gonna get nerfed or Japan thinks he should get nerfed means he thinks Gief should get hit with the nerf hammer?
