Hikaru has a pretty interesting choice in his mains (Aki and Honda) in terms of play style, and they are quite opposite to each other too. Bulky vs slender, headbutt vs slithering, slow vs fast, he plays Aki very aggressively while he’s exceptionally patient with his Honda. Now both got buffs, it’s a great time to be an Aki and Honda enjoyer lol 🐍🇯🇵
Why was Kyntio throwing random EX burn knuckles? Im guessing it wins or trades against headbutts for a punish combo, gotta check, never saw him using it until this matchup.
Not exactly the most foolproof way to decide, but given that Hikaru’s Honda went 4-0 on きんちょーる, I’m kinda thinking it’s the new patch, since Honda got buffed.
Honda, along side with Aki, are now his mains, I don’t think Honda is his secondary or pocket character tho as he is very invested in Honda in his stream
@@arcanisteruna6781 You're comparing Honda's buffs to possibly the lowest common denominator character in the game, which kinda proves my point..... For what it's worth though, I think Honda was always a strong character, you just have to play a totally different game with him to see how dangerous he is. You need patience to use him, which most players don't have or understand, as SF6 is largely designed around skipping neutral and rushing down.
I'm not sure if this is new patch, but for all people in comments, even if this is new patch, all that Hikaru was doing were things Honda was already capable of doing, nothing from the new patch was showcased here. Also, the way these type of channels work, this was probably already scheduled to be published and it is not new patch at all
A patient Honda is a scary thing.
Love to see Hikaru playing Honda
Hikaru’s Honda makes everyone look like a scrub.
it appears that Hikaru has found a DK to AKI’s Roy
This terry is addicted to full screen fireballs

7:54 that pause was so goofy I can't xD

I wonder why Hikaru opts to go for Stand Roundhouse (1 hit) into headbutt around 3:15.
It's a mix-up between that and grab. You can see Terry was jumping to avoid the grab and that's why the st hk hit.
Good to see hikaru can play the skinniest and the fattest character at the highest level
Is this from the new patch or still on the old one?

new patch Terry was able to do powerwave into medium shoulder
At about 2:15 he does Honda sthp into launcher without EX so I think this is new patch
new patch
Is Honda good now? I think I’m gonna make him my secondary he was a lot of fun in season 1
From my experience in real life, u never want to fight a swoll fat guy
HIKARU X E.HONDA WHAAATT?!?!?, hello???, someone explain this pls? XD 🖤✨️🤚
Honda, along side with Aki, are now his mains, I don’t think Honda is his secondary or pocket character tho as he is very invested in Honda in his stream
my theory is that he missed playing a mid tier known for being big and funny so he picked him up and pretended it was dk
@@giavanzhang6624 wow i didn't know that!, i thought that he onlys mains manon and aki QwQ
@@shmeeplopshmeeplop2730 well, that was fun he playing with E.honda, so diferent lol
@@giavanzhang6624he has a channel?? Where he streams at
Hikaru play so passive.
Vs Terry it's a good thing
Hikaru's strategy is to literally bore the opponent to death- and it clearly works
dawg its so boring watching honda just hold down back
Idk, Terry buffs seem underwhelming. The HP change isn't enough to make that much better
They should just gave Ryu's st.HP and Terry would be significantly better.
Of all the characters they could’ve spent time buffing, they chose Honda😑
To be fair, I don't see anything particularly significant in his notes, they're very minor changes.
He's literally considered by many as the worst character in the game. He deserves buff
@Longlostpuss he now has a better strike throw mix up than Manon so....

As AKI main, I don't struggle fighting Honda at all. I thought Honda was pretty bad isn't he?

Why would I upload old videos after patch is out? This is new patch.
@@MrDino023 isn’t he doing sthp into launcher without ex?
He was doing new combos Honda couldn’t do before.
