@SpadeHand Those 1 frame links are so freakin beautiful! It's because of videos like this that I continue to strive with my rog. Awesome stuff. Ice0Age is gdlike. Some people hate on the way he plays. But this is his style and he dons it well. Hey ice ... continue to do what you do you ... Inspire!!!
damn, I need a cigarette. but really, thanks Shin. these "best of" videos are incredibly entertaining. not to mention, they're probably a pain in the ass to throw together lol.
That was rad! Nice editing at the end with the Ibuki match as well. Showing how and why he decided to do his Ultra. Keep up the good work. I'm loving all of your uploads! It does hurt to see my girl Cammy get beat...... Oh well......
Very good video Shin. I love every good Balrog and this is one of the best. My favorite Balrog is Maeda Taison. Can't tell who's better, they are both very good, but have a different playstyle.
Just seconds before I saw this video I was thinking : "it's been a while since ShinAkuma posted a new Best of video", coincidence? gd job on the vid btw
man! i was impressed by how he changed his charge at 3:30 shows awareness. i definately woulda just waited and started chargin again. guess that shows the difference between me and the big dogs. gotta practice that though.
@TECxGamingChannel Thanks man. :) and I'm jealous by the way, you get to meet and play with all my favorite players! ice0age r, Playerjun52 and T SRAI, seriously though man, that really is awesome... Please make sure to get interviews with all of them, and tell Playerjun and T SRAI, "ShinAkuma says wasuuuuuup" lol
This guy for sure has some really awesome rushdown. I like how he ends his combos in dash punches over headbutts. I don't think it's optimal but he likes to keep the pressure on and that's really cool.
@Glutenbob The stuff -R- does with Rog in this video is far from easy mode. Pretty much everything he did in the video contained multiple 1-frame links or required good charge management, something a newbie would never be able to do with any sort of consistency.
Holy shit I knew ice was the best balrog but dam I didn't know he could do this, I'm pretty sure he is the only one in the world that can do this...THIS IS MADNESS
Hey Shin where can you find Japanese Arcade BP rankings? I'm curious because at the Nagoya Street Battle last night, Momochi was WRECKING people with a 66k BP Cody, best Cody I have ever seen...last I had seen he was using Makoto and had her at like 44k BP, so I wanted to see if there were any other surprises with top players using different characters.
@S7R31F nice combos i did all of them online everything in this video the only thing diferent in my replays is that i did a 1 frame link in every single rround at the end of every single combo
The Ibuki/Rog fight was insane 3:42 The Ibuki player knew to punish Tap with Ultra and Ice0age remembers that and baits out the Ultra in the next round. Fucking gdlk.
how did he chained the ultra after the jab, i thought u weren't supose to chain ultras in this game... can sum one explainn it to me how he did it? was sum thing from super that got changed in AE?
You know a player is good when they make the character look broken. R does it with Rog, Latif used to do it with C. Viper in 2011, and Infiltration does it with Akuma.

That game between Ice0age and Iyo is one of my favorite, good thing u put it at the end xD.
Am I the only one who thinks that :08 sounds like, "DON'T STOP me!!!!"? LOL
It does sound like that!
That was rad! Nice editing at the end with the Ibuki match as well. Showing how and why he decided to do his Ultra. Keep up the good work. I'm loving all of your uploads!
It does hurt to see my girl Cammy get beat...... Oh well......
OIH BABY!! BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!
Such amazing skills and strategy...I'm speechless to comment on this.
this is one of your best videos shin
i remember that last ibuki match, great headsup move to know he'd get the meter to be able to cancel the turn punch and bait the ultra.
Damn I miss seeing him play. Still my favorite Balrog to watch by far
It took me 15+ minutes to watch a 4 minute video. Some of this shit you just have to see 4 times.
Epic comment!
Okay that ending was just amazing.
Easily the most enjoyable player to watch out there in my opinion. An inspiration to all Boxer players out there!
Finally another best of video! Thanks shin :D
Good execution on his part. Finally someone that does the hard stuff lol.
because of this dude i cant stop playing balrog >.
omg. I love Ice0age r. Feels like I'm watching myself play
A player worthy of Balrog's personality.
Very good video Shin. I love every good Balrog and this is one of the best.
My favorite Balrog is Maeda Taison. Can't tell who's better, they are both very good, but have a different playstyle.
baiting ibuki ultra at the end was pretty fucking badass
@KidPorksEmALL haha, I forgot about that, but I meant it still has two months to go for the year anniversary, this video was uploaded in May. :)
Just seconds before I saw this video I was thinking : "it's been a while since ShinAkuma posted a new Best of video", coincidence? gd job on the vid btw
@S7R31F -R- is Japanese, there's another Boxer player named R-Chan, who is from Singapore.
@Glutenbob "I respect his ability to land those combos." "he gets no respect". Fucking genius right here.
Bait at the end was insane!
OMFG!! This is how SF should be played..AMAZING!!
Bro doing 1 frame links combo like he's drinking water
I ran across this guy on Endless one night before I knew who he was and thought to myself, "great! Another turtling Balrog." Boy was I wrong lol!
good god, I can't stop watching this video.
I love boxer's Japanese voice, when he does his super it sounds like he's saying "DAAAMN!"
Always loved that sound and the rest of his vocals!
the way he read that ibuki ultra was so delicious, cant get over it
Sooo smart at the end. Love it! Still...
I like the unstoppable train combo, it's like music to ma ears.
Great vid shin....Still waiting for that Best of GiPie :)
He's my favorite bad guy. You can feel the power of his punches from watching them.
wow he learned his opponent's ibukis main favor punish that quick! and reverse punished it! That was pretty badass
@juju52291 Thanks man, I appreciate it... This one was the second hardest to make, after The Best of Bullcat [Gouken]
3:47 - 3:54
Why are you showing him getting punished with an ultra?
4:03
Oh, lol. I see now.
Though, today it ACTUALLY is the video's one year anniversary.
That ending was so sick
Muito obrigado por compartilhar este Balrog sensasional.
Dude! Balrog is hard as hell to use, so this pro gamer gets maaaajooooor props from me!
Whenever I get defeated by a Balrog, I feel so violated just because all of his attacks are so FIERCE...
Good stuff Shin, looking forward to meeting him when he comes to Melbourne! =]
THAT WAS EPIC... I guess he got his money after all
u can really feel the strength of balrog's punches in this vid... - R - why you no play balrog anymore?!
thanks for the vid shin
Ooh, all of that was so crazy! If I can play half as well as ice0age, i'll get to my 1000 bp with 'rog in no time.
man! i was impressed by how he changed his charge at 3:30 shows awareness. i definately woulda just waited and started chargin again. guess that shows the difference between me and the big dogs. gotta practice that though.
@TECxGamingChannel Thanks man. :) and I'm jealous by the way, you get to meet and play with all my favorite players! ice0age r, Playerjun52 and T SRAI, seriously though man, that really is awesome...

Although I will never like Balrog this video was cash. Good stuff Shin
This guy for sure has some really awesome rushdown. I like how he ends his combos in dash punches over headbutts. I don't think it's optimal but he likes to keep the pressure on and that's really cool.
Balrog with those beats
Great Balrog ... Great video ... i Like it : )
i would def. be scared shitless to face this balrog...those combos....godlike full of that badassery!
the craziest thing is that the TAP gave him enough meter to pull off the cancel, opponent prolly thought he was safe the whole time!
woooohooooo thanks shin :D
this is how balrog would probably fight in real life. crazy buffalo indeed...
great use of the ultra at 0:54
LOL funny cuz i was just looking at ice0age's playlist and watchin his vids
I see what you did there for the last bits against IYO :)
Thanks for leaving the command inputs on the videos, I'm learning a lot.
@Glutenbob
The stuff -R- does with Rog in this video is far from easy mode. Pretty much everything he did in the video contained multiple 1-frame links or required good charge management, something a newbie would never be able to do with any sort of consistency.
This is amazing play.
That first combo on dudley is brutal
One word....INSANE
Holy shit I knew ice was the best balrog but dam I didn't know he could do this, I'm pretty sure he is the only one in the world that can do this...THIS IS MADNESS
@keliand Maybe one day soon, I have a few more players as well in mind for another best of video. :)
i never realized balrog had such good links o.o
I saw Ndsg, I miss his videos
Great player
i have to get xbox live again, but i would be more than glad to give you tips on any of those characters
Time To Get Paid...
And for his opponents, Time To Get Pawned.
Hey Shin where can you find Japanese Arcade BP rankings? I'm curious because at the Nagoya Street Battle last night, Momochi was WRECKING people with a 66k BP Cody, best Cody I have ever seen...last I had seen he was using Makoto and had her at like 44k BP, so I wanted to see if there were any other surprises with top players using different characters.
favorited and liked before watching. bawse :P
@tifalockhart559 but the input says...forward dash and....back down and forward plus x3 punch....which is not rite is it
@Judgementxxx Yes, that's great, good for you man.
@0ShinAkuma0 its interesting though how on desoras website the only boxerhe has listed is R and it has a singaporean flag...
that ultra on ibuki was sweet
FAVORITED for flawless execution!!!
So clean!
pause at 3:04 xD
I wish i had a portion of this guys talent
@S7R31F nice combos i did all of them online everything in this video the only thing diferent in my replays is that i did a 1 frame link in every single rround at the end of every single combo
The first 27 seconds is the reason I'm here
hey shin are there any dudley players out there that is worth making a best of? if it would be highly appreciated if you made one :)
Do I even have to say it...instant fav :)
Incredible.
The Ibuki/Rog fight was insane 3:42
The Ibuki player knew to punish Tap with Ultra and Ice0age remembers that and baits out the Ultra in the next round. Fucking gdlk.
damn, thats one badass balrog player
0:07 don't stop me from dancing to dudley's theme
I heard so much wind noises of how fast the people are getting paid.
hey shin, don't forget to add this to your 'best of' playlist :)
how did he chained the ultra after the jab, i thought u weren't supose to chain ultras in this game... can sum one explainn it to me how he did it? was sum thing from super that got changed in AE?
You know a player is good when they make the character look broken. R does it with Rog, Latif used to do it with C. Viper in 2011, and Infiltration does it with Akuma.
Treully exquisite.
It's kinda funny how "Just try an' stop me" in Japanese sounds like "Don't stop me" lol
@intrigued1525 Yeah, just look up YogaFlame24, he uploaded some a few days ago, but unfortunately ice0age uses Adon :(
man how does he apply pressure like that I can't do that s*** for nothing
at 3:06,
akuma: ASSASSINS CREED MODE ON!!!!
