Smug the Adnan intro was refreshing to see in your content. I feel like fgc content is getting lazy by only slapping together clips of the streamed tourney. Sometimes a little effort goes a long way and im glad to see you’re doing that. Thank you and you’re welcome (mind you im only a minute into the video)
Dunno about the tournament, but some people in his chat were hella toxic, throwing a lot of shit at Smugs opponents. Maybe it was a group of former LTG fans or something.
@@HanDaimond what you said makes no sense, if SFV isn’t so deep then Kevin should be playing like a top level Rashid player but he isn’t because that actually takes skill
@@HMNNO I said "play", not "being exactly as", of course there are better players, that's super obvious it's not worth mentioning. The formula is the same with Rashid, corner carry and then 50/50s with MP and grabs, nothing too deep. The only variant they could pull off is mixups with wall jumps or long combo potential.
I don't play sfv, 'cause it's ass, but i saw in the chat someone said dual was random after the super. Even if you didn't know much about sfv, you'd know that was an extremely good option. Super would've chipped him out, smug have vtrigger and might've still gotten hit, there really wasn't a way out of that once smug put himself in that position. You know, it's fucking twitch chat though bro. Where youtube, reddit, and any other place neckbeards and iphone users comes from to meet up and give shitty opinions.
I'm looking at Rasheed and for how fast he is he has a lot of reach and damage. Might be a sore back character from carrying so much but the guy did zone.
You are probably distracted from thinking about the stream. When you're in a tournament, really try to tune everything else out, and focus on the game.
I thought being in the FGC, most people were familiar with the big names... People really in here thinking Dual Kevin is a legitimate gold player? Maybe you don't know him if you never watched Marvel, but it's obvious hes just on an alternate account. The man beat Smug, so you can guess that hes at least in the top 2000 for SFV ranked.
I think the only nerfs that was too much was his fireballs. His others just makes sense like his ex and his levels actually have a purpose now. It feels like G is a character that makes sense to his design philosophies now

@@SophistictaedDevil A good player can achieve a high rank, but not all high ranked players are good. Also, pro players playing on gold accounts creates confusion when it comes to the correlation between the online ranks and skill levels of players.

The editing on this video is a real treat. The action keeps your eyes glued to the screen, not a second is wasted. I really appreciate the flow of it.
That prince of bel Air clip LMAO
Smug juggled the hell out of that Urien with the greatest of ease. 🤣🤣
Once again, showing anyone what happens if you jump against SMUG
We are legends my guys and you Smug you are the best guy of the entire FGC community keep up bro stay safe.
First 30 seconds of the video and Smug found out his opponent has 1 bar, got me dying laughing 😂🤣🤣
legend has it that Winners side doesn't even exist
@Taelin Cusic smh

Takes a real homie to donate 50 dollars dollars
Nice who ever donated 50 to smug he still deserves it
@Facts Don't care about your feelings shut up
@Facts Don't care about your feelings I'll flog you lol
Kevin played so well, how is chat calling him random
there's a reason they are in the comment section and he's actually playing the game
( its because they suck )
'Cause he's playing like every random Rashid players.
@@mrrikoho8569 SFV is not as deep as other games, of course he's gonna play as any other Rashid player.

Holy crap this tournament was stacked
8:07
As soon as G said "Pardon me..", it was GG EZ! 👏🏾👏🏾
I would like to appreciate Smug's editor. Thank you for not pulling a panda global and zooming in every 5 seconds so I can't see the damn game
Watching your G is so cool especially after the changes made in s5 so was really interested in how you adapted to it Smug
He didn’t . He barely used the v shift in his games .
@@yoyotupac I wasn’t referring to shift, G had a lot of changes and I was talking about that
lol I thought I was the only one who play Street Fighter in Azerbaijan. Shoutouts to AdnanNY

The tournament wasn’t toxic, but his live chat was.

@@TheDiamondSkye you really lifting us here lol
My favorite thing about this "random" argument is that it's only bad when it works; if it whiffs and gets you killed, no one says anything
@@TheDiamondSkye I agree with you, *except when you say sfv is ass* to be fair it used to be at launch but it's great now
Yea, Pink was using Eleven...THE WHOLE TOURNAMENT!!!
Duel Kevin is too good at every game he plays!
Them crouch fierce games were awesome, you had him that last round
Smug def one of my favorite SF players! Lets go SF4 dudley and SF5 Balrog
"I GOT F*CKIN ROOOOOBBED!!!
HOW COULD I LAG OUT WHEN I'M WINNIN'!?!?" 🤬🤬🤬
geezus the G mixups. I actually felt bad for that Urien
Lmfao "We was robbed!"
The sim was going nuts
8:57 that was a beautiful bait AND punish
Smug was really struggling in neutral against that Rashid it was painful to see, I hope he learned from it 😔
That dhalsim match was so fun to watch holy shit
Good Dhalsims are always fun to watch : D
13:45 I had no idea G could do that......why is he so cheap? Smug, please explain this nonsense!
He showed my name. In loser's bracket.
You doin something right to be in multiple videos. Keep getting better.
@@Meatwad787 Only way to go is up.
Some of these bad mammajammas need to feed the hamster powering their modems and get off wifi. No Kap.
these cats paying for 1G Fiber and going on wifi with their 20mbps machine 🤣
Dualist kevin trusted in the heart of the cards
Rashid is such a goober of a character.
I'm looking at Rasheed and for how fast he is he has a lot of reach and damage. Might be a sore back character from carrying so much but the guy did zone.
It's Smug now with three types of cheese!!
11:08 is it just me or Rashid's st MK is really that fast ?
@Taelin Cusic not this season, I checked it's 8F start up so yes it's really that fast.
one thing is for sure, there isnt enough smug in my life
Yo everyone like the video
Yo shoutouts to SMUG
I’m still tryna figure out what happened @7:28
New animation for sure 🤔
Dude that Aegis read V shift was dirtier than my browser history.
Throw some respect on Dual Kevin’s name. Dude is a Mahvel god
The beast player in sfv 👌👌

That Rashid player was actually kinda godlike for just being in Gold. A shame his connection wasn't, though. Good games though, everyone played great!
Bro what you smoking ? Lol that’s dual kev he’s like an ultra grandmaster .
adnan cant rage quit or view bot himself out of this one LMAO
Is it me or smug wasn't as talkative and joking around as much in this video......never seen him so serious
He usually isn't playing tournaments.
@@-Devy- oh thats why lol
When do these Wednesday NLBC tourneys start!? Am I too late to enter!?
bruh
And people really said dhalsim was useless now
Yo the chat was mad salty about Kev lol. He plays good.
Kind of bummed he didn't run into Nightmareeffect
Capcom went too far with the G netfs, VS1 is almost useless now and that VT1 drains hella quick if you are not leveled up
I think the only nerfs that was too much was his fireballs. His others just makes sense like his ex and his levels actually have a purpose now. It feels like G is a character that makes sense to his design philosophies now
Yeah especially his vskill 1 is just fog shot now.. atleast he had it for fireball characters but now it's pretty much useless..
@@HMNNO I partially agree, his VS1 nerf doesn't make sense for me especially against projectile characters, I see him struggling against Ryu and Sagat

Why is Balrog jump HP so OD
Did smug ever finish that 4 am kim trial?
Smug when dhalsim does yoga fire close just go for sweep, it's guaranteed and denies any followup
why are the last videos 720p :(
his new editor, for some reason, cant render in 1080p
10:07 Smooth transition! 😂🔥🔥🔥
Where can I watch the commentary
Team Spooky's UA-cam. They host the Next Level Battle Circuit(NLBC) every Wednesday
Most people don't realize that if the person has PC in the name usually means that it's a second account.
Punk played this tournament with Eleven 🤣🤣
10:08 you already know what happens, let's skip.
Hey Smug... V-trigger 1 or V-trigger 2 with G in season 5? Also, V-skill 1 or V-skill 2 for G also?
What does Balrogs' CA say exactly?
"You won't......???.... why dont you GO TO HELL?!"
"You won't hear the full ten count!"
What's this
Smug be ummm he be ummm Man U be giving up dem cheeks in tourneys! WILL U JUST PRETEND U ARE ONLINE AND WASH THESE MAMAJAMAS!
Ah what?
Toxic don’t exist,
For fuck sake Smug
Damn..
No balrog no like
Urien :D
Love me some Smug videos but not gonna lie, not liking the editing recently. Not tryna be a hater but they're just... Off
You won't think too much 'cause it's pretty hard for you. But ! You want win without any effort, play cheap, and avoid training mod to sharp your execution ?
It's okay buddy ! Rashid is made for you !
Dude getting to the level Dual Kevin and smug play at requires a LOT of effort, regardless of your character, and Rashid is far from the cheapest
@@Subject18 What a joke ! Your comment was funny, thank you.
@@mrrikoho8569 I see why scrubquotesx frequents the yt comment section, it's clear to me that you could not fathom the dedication needed to reach their level
Smig losing to Golds? I feel better about myself now.
What’s his rank on ps4? I think his rank is higher there
It was obvious that was a smurf account. People who play on a higher level making a rookie account are the worst.
@@nicolsen7094 you can't share accounts between platforms, hence the "pc" in his name
Moral of the story:
Ranked don't mean shit.
That Rashid is an Ultimate grand master, dude. That’s his alt account. Notice the PC in his name. So rank does mean something. You just have a lack of knowledge on the players.
@@anthonygamer correction: Lack of knowledge on ONE player. My point still stands, regardless of this discrepancy.
@@SophistictaedDevil A good player can achieve a high rank, but not all high ranked players are good.
Also, pro players playing on gold accounts creates confusion when it comes to the correlation between the online ranks and skill levels of players.
Rank don't mean shit past grandmaster, after which it's just grinding points, until then it's pretty meaningful
@@Subject18 You still have people like Snake Eyez who is rank 6 and that pretty much lines up with how dangerous he is as a player in general. A lot of it is grinding points but you still have to not lose very often in order to be ranked that high.
I do agree with your observation, but ranked CAN be a valid form of data to take into account, especially when looking at a frequent online player.
