***** Much appreciated, man. Although, if I may, after reading your description, it sounds as if you're retiring... (I may be wrong, and I hope I am because I've learned a lot from this channel). Please tell me I'm wrong.
Smug is like the Lebron of the SF community. Now that he's getting a lot of recognition everyone's in that "He doesn't have a championship ring so he's not good yet!" mood. Even if you don't like Smug you gotta give him props for his potential. He's only just started, I hope he goes far!
It is always a pleasure watching Smug play and pull off some of the most insane tech possible in real matches. He's created a huge loyal following because of his unique playstyle and godlike execution; and he just continues to improve and gain more fans with time. And thanks to Yoga and MrDustkicka for the sick editing. It must have taken a lot of effort for such a compilation.
I don't know why but I don't see Smug as a technical kind of guy, I don't even know how he looks like or even saw anything posted by him, but I just can picture him going "Holy shit that was sweet" after finishing those mad combos. Props to him. Thanks for the awesome video, Yoga.
I know, man. I see a lot of videos of him but I never see him upload anything himself, just other people promoting him. I hope he goes far, he inspired me to use Dudley.
I remember briefly playing Smug in 3rd Strike for the first time, and I thought, wow, what a fun character to play. Then years later, I picked up SF4, and of course, I started with Dudley. Then I found Smug, and now he pretty much blew my mind on what I could do with Dudley.
Wtf! Duds has loop combos? My word! It's a beautiful sight when you incorporate a thorny red rose into combos that makes it worth watching every video of smug! Man! Best duds period!
It's sad to think that the magic series is ending, but at the same time, it's still good to know that we'll still get to see smug wreck people on this channel ... Thanks yoga, for the crazy amount of uploads, and stuff like this. You are the at the top of the pack with what you do, and hopefully we'll get to see more content for a long time to come :3
i actually thought you wasnt doing another one since its been such a long time since the last one. seeing this one made me think you was bringing it back. Non the less, Excellent play by Smug. never cease to amaze the people with his dudley play. GGs!
I've said this once. I love watching Smug because he is young and has great potential. But good lord his fan base is so immature. Whenever I see him play in tourneys on Twitch, people in chat cheer for Smug AND shit on his opponent which I can't stand. If Smug wins they still continue to shit on the other guy. However if Smug loses, all his fans just completely either not chat due to maybe shame or want to justify his loss. I'm also an Infiltration fan and I know many others are but we don't shit on his opponents like Smug's fans. We say gg if Infil's opponent wins or loses. That is why so many people call Smug's fans dickriders. And I can't blame them.
Are you serious lol? This is blatant bullshit. Stream monsters are the biggest trolls in the FGC. If you lose on stream you see nothing but "smug confirmed fraud" or "FRAY" shit like that spammed all over the chat lol. You're either bullshitting or you've seen some rare shit.
Aaron Johnson No no no. This happens ONLY when Smug is fighting. I've noticed that. And when Smug is done fighting they just chat about other things. The stream monsters I've noticed don't do it too often for my experience than Smug's fans.
Once again. I don't know if you're bullshitting or witnessed a once in a while event. But smug gets blown up everytime he loses. People in stream chat constantly calling him overrated and free saying he sucks etc. That's what stream monsters do they troll.
You must only watch Smug vs. Sanford matches. Most of the time when Smug loses it's vs. Zeus (which is happens quite a bit, so it's not that hype), and Art is pretty solid vs. him. He doesn't go to tourneys enough to see how fans react when he plays vs. other players, but he definitely brings in the hype at NLBC. If anything, the only reason why people watch NLBC is to see if Sanford gets salty about losing vs. him or Rico. I don't know...it's hard to compare Smug's wins vs. other people beating him because usually his wins are all one big exciting beatdown. When he loses it's from bad trades and him getting poked to death from not being able to get in. Not really exciting but he still gets shitted on
There's plenty of top players that has similar fanbase, like Daigo for example. Just ignore it, like what you like and Dudley on top play is hard to adjust on since not everybody respect Smug's play or simple let themselfes get hit like that.
Pie Smug, a monster ! Too bad that it's your final video, i really loved the magic series ! Hope it will come back if you want ! Thanks Yogaflame i love your channel !
I actually played smug once on xbox live, i beat him one round with my thawk and then he bodied the shit out of me but replied back to my message saying good game and thanks for the compliment, cause i told him i was a fan, so that was nice of him.
Their lives? Really dude? It's just a fighting game. You win some, you lose some. The skill gap is much wider with some than there's. But at the end of the day, it's a hobby for fun and nothing more.
Yoga i really appreciate your effort man. I once was a constant sf uploader for a year or so but it's too much and I'm taking a break right now. Uploading is too much work dude, the workload, i know it. And worst of all people shit on you saying that you steal videos and copypasta and shit. Spammers, haters and trolls you gonna deal with these people all day. I think you've been working since super is out huh? That's respect man.
Trust me I know exactly what you mean. It definitely is a lot of work, not really hard but extremely time consuming, finding replays then watching it twice over ( record ) and uploading matches of characrters that players main. Making montages without your editing tools playing up, also arranging set's ( 1st to 5 ) The truth is I am a nobody unlike the players who play at tournaments. Just a guy who enjoys uploading for the viewers like yourself.
He's just never done pressing buttons... Coming from a fellow pad player whose execution is pretty bad, it's impressing that he can do these crazy combos with ease. Dudley is good in Ultra so this is his time. He has the next couple years to show us that his mind game is on par with his combo-ing. He is already a deadly player when he gets people in the corner. Wow.
Not pretty sure about all this hate on Smug. He has great pressure & reactions, winning with a low tier character against top player using top tier character. Is Smug the greatest ? Nope. Is Smug a Great Player ? Yep.
its funny reading these comments lol. my two cents are....Smug clearly has a gift.....i mean idk if he plays nonstop or what, but.....to find out the things he does and to have the matchup, hitbox, safe/punish knowledge and impeccable link timing, that he does....you gotta either be a genius or just not do anything but experiment and play. The main example i am referencing is 4:24 against the Hugo. Now I am also a Dudley player and I think it is safe to say that me along with every other Dudley player out there, would never have even thought about doing a cross up unblockable jumping fierce on Hugo. It would never cross a normal dudley players mind because it just sounds dumb....it even looks dumb! But i guess Smug has that innate ability/creativity that is needed to play this game and whether he is a genius or the most dedicated player in sf, he gets the job done.
You are assuming that he comes up with this stuff by himself.. Im pretty sure he frequents SRK Dudley forums and r/SF4 where there are tons of excellent players (behrudy, 34, DykenSP, to name a few) sharing information 24/7. Not taking anything away from him, he is a legit beast, but lets not over hype this shit.
The music is the best part of this video. Smug's very impressive to watch, but not the best gauge of how to play a match of USF4 at a competitive level.
Top players always bring out the Top Haters. I love people trying to advise on how to beat Smug and how easy it is. I've seen him first hand wipe top players out and them scratching their heads not knowing what the F just happened. Momochi had to switch from Ken to Juri just to beat Smug and he only won by a sliver. Smug is no joke and if you think otherwise, put your money where your mouth is, and challenge him to a first to five, and have fun getting smoked. I've played Smug maybe 20 times and won 1 round. I'm glad I didn't make this video cause when I lost, I lost terribly.

Smug, the man who turned Dudley into a spectator sport.
I don't really ask for much from anyone, but I would appreciate it if you could all read the description. Thank you in advanced...
Frijoles buenos
Dude, you're legendary! You're what keeps the hype in this community!
Wait, why is it the last one ever made?
***** Much appreciated, man. Although, if I may, after reading your description, it sounds as if you're retiring... (I may be wrong, and I hope I am because I've learned a lot from this channel). Please tell me I'm wrong.

Thanks for the awesome video, Yoga.
rasui80 Check some CEO 2014 and EVO streams, you'll see Smug's face. He's still a kid, 18/19 y.o.
NeroDante89
Do you know he is playing with pad or arcade stick?
Ultra Kuma Pad.
Ultra Kuma He plays with a 360 pad.
I know, man. I see a lot of videos of him but I never see him upload anything himself, just other people promoting him. I hope he goes far, he inspired me to use Dudley.
Omfg his combos are crazy, the fact he pulls them off during match is crazy
I like smug so much, he makes me want to practice dudley.
This guy truly has some skills in his fingers !
i picked dudley then heard of smug, made me want to play him even more but now i've been focusing on E Ryu and my dud has been slippin. makes me sad

The thing about Smug is that he constantly gets better and learns new shit, so sooner or later he'll get that Major win he's been fishing for.
I was literally going "AWHH SHITT!" The whole time at my screen! DAMN DONT PRSS BUTTONS In the corner.. DONT DONT!!
This video goes straight to my favorites. Such dignity and elegance makes a pleasure to see fights of USFIV, Dudley ftw!
Best Combo Video Ever. You truly fight like a gentleman. May you live like a gentleman...
I just want to say that I've really enjoyed the magic series. Great job. Keep up the good work.

Nice tribute to best Dudley. Love these combos!
Bless his soul
Holy shit what a awsome combo character!!! That Deejay's face at the end was the climax !
BEST MAGIC SERIES EVER,SUPERB EDITING!!!!! Is it just me or does Smug makes Dudley look like he's broken?My lord those 1 frame links
Okay there were a few unbelievable thing a saw hear one that Sagat hit box combo second when Mr. Smug did the Dudley reverse i was like PogChamp
I enjoy watching smug PVP, most entertaining play for SF4 beside Diago :)
Smug is ridiculous - What a Genius!!!!
These video are what got me hook on your channel. Keep em up, YogaFlame. You's the best.
BARS+BARS=SMUG!!!!
Hi AMY ROUNDHOU5E, Thank you for the clarification! I thought BARS+BARS=SMUGDE. I was off by one "S."
I have seen both of you players and am familiar with the names!
yeroh ulises Thanks!!!!
love that hes using the rose more now :p
that combo against chun in the corner was too much!
Pie Smug, a monster ! Too bad that it's your final video, i really loved the magic series ! Hope it will come back if you want ! Thanks Yogaflame i love your channel !
These videos are always godlike. Editing on point too. I LOVE IT
Amazing job well done yoga as always! Thx for the shout out brother!
This is probably the best sf montage I've seen for a player. The music is GDLK.
Thanks for the MAgic series. Glad you're at least keeping up with the VS uploads.
i never played sf4 but cant atop watching Smug's Dudley, it would be nice to see him in sfv
I actually played smug once on xbox live, i beat him one round with my thawk and then he bodied the shit out of me but replied back to my message saying good game and thanks for the compliment, cause i told him i was a fan, so that was nice of him.
still waiting to get a match with him........
Damnnnn !!
I bet all these players had to re-evaluate their lives after Smug destroyed them xD
Long live 'The Magic of' series !!
Their lives? Really dude? It's just a fighting game. You win some, you lose some. The skill gap is much wider with some than there's. But at the end of the day, it's a hobby for fun and nothing more.
I know its just a fighting game lol I was saying it in joking terms :P !
Sanford Kelly is dropping Sagat and ONI for Evil Ryu, and I think SMUG had something to do with it
SMGxEnWHYc46 he changed his mind.... his sticking with oni
DarkAdonis123 chill bro
take things too seriously
sarcasm doesn't transfer
lol
Great video. Fitting music and simple looking but really good and appropriate montage !
"Like"'d even before watching. Smug is a beast!
Deejay's face at the end says it all.
His combos are pure insanity
Smug making Dudley look God Tier, mad,mad skills !
Song is Kava - The Gambler
love all "The Magic OF" videos
tnx a lot 4 your videos man
song is : Kava - The Gambler
Thanks bro
Mindblowing track, thanks man
Smug is still young, got plenty of time to win in a major tournament. Go Smug!
Yoga i really appreciate your effort man. I once was a constant sf uploader for a year or so but it's too much and I'm taking a break right now. Uploading is too much work dude, the workload, i know it. And worst of all people shit on you saying that you steal videos and copypasta and shit. Spammers, haters and trolls you gonna deal with these people all day. I think you've been working since super is out huh? That's respect man.
lol i can't deal with internet being sucked up by 30-45 minute upload times, basically the main reason it takes me forever to upload new content
Trust me I know exactly what you mean. It definitely is a lot of work, not really hard but extremely time consuming, finding replays then watching it twice over ( record ) and uploading matches of characrters that players main. Making montages without your editing tools playing up, also arranging set's ( 1st to 5 ) The truth is I am a nobody unlike the players who play at tournaments. Just a guy who enjoys uploading for the viewers like yourself.
your editing is legit as f*** though
Sick video as always. Never disappointed but always surprised
2:30 was very clean. Nice work.
I'm glad the last of the "Magic Series" ended with Smug. I don't think there could've been a better finale
the links of ungodly crispiness
Great vid to sick love smug
Smug looks like an alien. Seen him in evo videos...no offense to him tho if he's reading this. Great video an them combos are jus unreal yo.
And he's back with the magic!
wow.... I'm really dazzled by this.... I consider myself a big fan from SMUG.
He's just never done pressing buttons... Coming from a fellow pad player whose execution is pretty bad, it's impressing that he can do these crazy combos with ease.
Dudley is good in Ultra so this is his time. He has the next couple years to show us that his mind game is on par with his combo-ing.
He is already a deadly player when he gets people in the corner. Wow.
2:20 that costume reminds me of Castlevania XD
Plus, Great thanks to YogaFlame24, your doing an amazing jobs guys.
From USFIV French player
Great video! Love the clips and the editing. I think its just a shame that this doesn't get more views
I stand corrected. Just took a look at the other vids in this series and they mostly have 100,00+ views
Dudley on steroids!
0_0 He's not human
That's how sounds train of awesomeness.
sick edit
Very good video thank you for sharing
My Flavoite guy!
Impressive.
I wish I could see the number of hits @ 3:42 lol
How this vid hasn't reached 1 million views- some1 doing some shady stuff-
That combo on Guy -_-
Godlike
fearless
he is not human
Was hoping to see a magic of proud strawberry...
The Magic Series will be missed my man!
Smug mains Carlton now.
style to destroy
That's our man, Smug
1:36 OMG !!!
Smug wiping up one of his magic pie's for this last magic series.
When Smug bought this game he thought he was picking up UMvC3 after he was inspired by MarlinPie
Crazy
awesomeness
Go Smug !
wow... this guy plays on a 360 pad just like me but his execution is godlike
The beast
Not pretty sure about all this hate on Smug. He has great pressure & reactions, winning with a low tier character against top player using top tier character. Is Smug the greatest ? Nope. Is Smug a Great Player ? Yep.
Smug + Bboy music is the best combo in sf lol
You forgot to include his ridiculously awesome block strings.
Beautiful fuk all those negative comments please start making these again please we love dem
RESPECT. SALUTE!
its funny reading these comments lol. my two cents are....Smug clearly has a gift.....i mean idk if he plays nonstop or what, but.....to find out the things he does and to have the matchup, hitbox, safe/punish knowledge and impeccable link timing, that he does....you gotta either be a genius or just not do anything but experiment and play.

- The editing was beautiful.
With Smug's Dudley; Style = Substance
Smug have lucifer in his fingers
wow. okay okay okay
So that's where all the smug uploads have been. PERFECT but I wanted to see what the combo # was, ridiculous character specific links
Smug and Sako should do a combo competition.
next costume DLC will be smugs awesome shirts and jogging pants with boondocks necklace for dudley
That was awesome.
Part Blender. Part Pop Quiz. All Smug.
Should do another vryu sensei magic of, update that miracle showcase
Top players always bring out the Top Haters. I love people trying to advise on how to beat Smug and how easy it is.
