Aside from 0 latency (or as close as you're gonna get), offline events are just so much more fun to watch. Seeing player reactions, the showmanship, the handshakes - it just feels so much better than just always cutting to a split screen of the commentators all the time, like you have to do in online tournaments.
I like how they gave the zoning characters in this game the coolest fucking combos lmfaoo. Guile especially has some of the best looking conversions in this game and du pulls them off to perfection

Capcom had to be low-key trolling when they assigned Ed normals. His "jab" button does everything, from hooks to uppers and elbows, besides actually jabbing. Instead, all of Ed's jabs are done by pressing the kick buttons 😂.
I love the street fighter community because they show each other so much respect. Every other competitive game, especially fighting games act very childish. Real professionals are so refreshing to see.
damn Punk... i always go for you (unless Justin Wong is around) lol.... GGS bro. your still great and one of the best to me, but that combo he gave you at the end. good fgc gawd!
@TheVirginMeri pretty much. There was a time where Punk kept winning like 5 times in a row in meetups. Punk said it himself during gamers8 that every time they fight it's a tossup cause someone brings something up.
@@TheVirginMeriI think part of it is that Punk isn't as focused on one or two characters like Du. I think Punk would get bored always playing Cammy, but character specialists (with maybe one backup character) seem to have the edge in SF6.
The last loop combo and level 3 was so satisfying, i wish du could do it every time he gets the opponent in the corner, the opponents always jump in and gets pass his anti airs...
well he did it while testing out a character and still be respected as one of the best players in the fgc. Meanwhile you're just a hater sitting at home doing not much of anything
You can see the fist bump ending when the cam is shown, it was already over as soon as he did the lvl 3 lol. Plus they were laughing when the set started, sorry to tell you but there's no narrative for you no lifes to create
I believe most tournament rules say a controller disconnect means a forfeit of that particular round. Since you obviously can’t end a round short Punk just walked up to take the loss.
And if anyone asks why, it's simple. Because otherwise players could "strategically" pause or disconnect or chest their controllers to pause at moments to break flow or otherwise distract the match.
Here to protect 🛡️ you from spoilers
if i see punk in the finals i already know who won though :/
I really appreciate these shield comments. Thank you!

100%. I fucking fall asleep to these longer tournament videos
Saint Cola and JWong make an excellent commentary duo! I hope to hear them on more in the future and really enjoyed watching this top 8.
I owe him a block of tekken soon so…
Oh yeah, this was hype. Cola killed it at Capcom Cup, and Jwong is always a great listen.
Perfect dual
That very last Guile combo was ungodly, my goodness!!
Justin Wong is low-key the best commentator in the fgc lol
Both of them together is the best @@Hopoy1
No offense to jw. But yipes 🐐 of commentator. Im sure jw would agree
Yipes, Sajam, Jammerz
@@Hopoy1Yipes is for sure funny, and extremely knowledgeable, but sometimes he goes way overboard with the jokes and (especially) unneeded cursing.
Jwong analytical ability is so so good.
I wished he commentated more
1:39:26 I love the "thank you iDom for not parrying," daigo reference lol.
I like how they gave the zoning characters in this game the coolest fucking combos lmfaoo. Guile especially has some of the best looking conversions in this game and du pulls them off to perfection
I'm stuck playing zoners this game because they made them too cool. I was going to just play manon but the guile and jp sauce just feel too good.
Justin straight VIOLATED with that "was it Mid Best? Or Mid @ Best?"
Or the ghetto combo part LMAO
Hardly the only person who violated another person in this top 8.
@@Fuji808 full fact

That last combo from guile is sick!
i swear every du/ punk match is a banger
This was an excellent commentary pair between fun hype and deep technical insights. Need more of the Saint-Cola + JWong combo.

Now I need Justin commentating Evo.
That reset was insane. SF6 is literally made for big tourny moments.
Such an amazing performance by iDom !
What an amazing tourney, the soul was in the building that night in full force. Love to see it.
I love this justin wong and Macho Man commentary
When it was a Cammy miror match, definitely. But Guile has the lamest gamestyle ever. Uninteresting AF to watch
@@patataboyidk what you was watching but that du/punk match was hype 🔥
2:16:23 This is a clip !!!
What a finale! Super fun to watch and so glad a local TNS is back in action! Amazing work TNS team... you all are squad goals.
Nice to see! Great tournament DU and Punk...Idom, others... amazing🎉🎉🎉
2:16:25 Nuckledu did one hell of a combo to bury #punkdaGOD's career. 😂🙏🏾👏🏽
Very nice to see Paladin play throughout the tournament! 😃
iDom loves them low tier characters
He does just imagine if he played a high tier character! He’ll be unstoppable!!!!!!!
While Yipes and JWong are my favourite commentators - Saint Cola might be one of the modern day fgc GOATs!
The headbands are sick
You know you're good when you lose to NuckleDu and people say you choked
TNS always sick, hope I can see the next one or 2 in person
The God of the second place !!
That Punk/iDom character selection. 👌💯🔥
Amazing grand final. Mastery at the end.
The day punk win a major tournament, there's gonna be a vid named the king of 2nd place finally wins
I mean you could make a video like that about anybody. Daigo, Tokido, most great players haven't won a major in a while
@@rexflores8461 ya right but I mostly see punk in 2nd tho, that's why mentioned that
@@rexflores8461punk came second at his capcup qualifier, lcq and basically every major he enters

PUNK the god second place 😂
When I come to watch this tournaments is for this reason, both of them put up a show but I have to say that last one on guile was. Sick as fuck.
That was an A1 performance by iDom. Manon just don’t have enough; unless things change for iDom, this will be the result every time he faces Punk gg.
"That was ghetto bro! That's from the hood" That is a goated line from Justin and Cola 🤣🤣🤣
2:08:36 Some of the best NuckleDu I've seen
Imagine being iOvrthk and noticing you are the only one left out of the title lol
😂😂😂
@02:10:07 Amazing whiff punish by NuckleDu!
BUSTIN PIXELS - ONYXCON approved ! 👏🏽 🎉🎉🎉
damn Punk... i always go for you (unless Justin Wong is around) lol.... GGS bro. your still great and one of the best to me, but that combo he gave you at the end. good fgc gawd!
once again Punk beats everybody but loses cause he had to test out ED in the winners finals
kinda smart to try out the Ed tho honestly, Du has tons of practice against his Cammy
@@malafazzle7966 and still would not beat her in reset grand finals match
@@His0kaDu has has the edge recently but Punk vs. Du is always just a toss up tbh

putting du in the akatsuki robe hahaha love it
Justin wong with james chen might be legendary
That rq in the first round of finals killed me lmao
SF6 at its highest level.😊
The last loop combo and level 3 was so satisfying, i wish du could do it every time he gets the opponent in the corner, the opponents always jump in and gets pass his anti airs...
(6:33)😱👏🏻
Puntos did a great final, simple amazing, he played aggressive and he was offensive and he made a great tournament
Awe man I didn’t know this was a major thought it was that weekly that plays the modded umvc3 online
TNS does have weekly online tournaments. The offline tournaments are less frequent (which is why this is only #9).
Good stuff and solid grands ✊✊
Ryu players online 🦁
Ryu players tournament 🐱
@02:12:17 What a shimmy!
punk is my favorite choke artist
Cue the Guile music, that was nasty
No cap,punk is top10 all time best street fighter
PUNK Plays ED and imma Huge Fan
No way? Was that omgitsAndre?? Wasn’t he banned from tournaments or something a few years ago?
good to see IDOM!!
This is what offline tourneys are all about.
What are they looking at on their phones before the matches? Frame data? What site or app are they using for that?
Mothman got that Will Ramos fade goin
*Expensive* - J.Wong
PunkDa 2nd place God back at it again
well he did it while testing out a character and still be respected as one of the best players in the fgc. Meanwhile you're just a hater sitting at home doing not much of anything
How did nuckldu get that combos, bri this is insane
DuelKevin doesnt look like a kid anymore! 😮
What are they talking about with "flip out" at 57:36? Is that a mechanic?
You can clearly see at 57:20 that Juri's st. MK made Cammy flip out of the air
When most moves hit an airborne opponent, it causes an air reset or "flip out". The guy in the air is invincible until they land standing.
Guys, just always remember to bet on who ever is Punk's opponent in Grands. It's 99,9 percent sure Punk is gonna choke.
Moth man wit that 1990s boy band haircut
So happy & GREAT for Punk on continuing the LOSING STREAK!! NICE!🤣😂😅the God--lol!😇
Punks cammy is why i play cammy idk why he stopped being aggressive vs the guile at the end
2:16:21 how does all of that combo?
I really like Justin Wong commentating
good top 8. thanks
Justin Wongggggg OMG!!!!!
Du is crazy with Guile
Why doesn't Jwong do more commentary?
J wong for president
punk da second again
What Clay Guida is to UFC, Punk is to the FGC. 🤷😅
Saint cola legit looking like a character from naruto
Call me Hokage Cola
what controller is nuckledu using?
Do idom and Punk not like each other ? Why didn’t they shake hands?
No, they don't like each other. I seen some disrespectful gestures between them in the past.
You can see the fist bump ending when the cam is shown, it was already over as soon as he did the lvl 3 lol.

@@TheVirginMeri huh ? I was asking a question i wasn’t creating a narrative
@@Bkzflyest0823 not you, the other two
No, they're cool with each other. They interact on Twitch chat from time to time, and iDom is a designated Mod on Punk's stream.
Great matches
1:59 true
37:37 oh boy
41:40 my god thats what? 65%?
Lily in top 8! Lesss go
1:49:57 Why punk surrender the round when they can continue fighting?
if your controller fucks up, opponent gets the round
You have to automatically forfeit the round no matter what if someone pauses or stops the game for any reason

punk finishing second again why am i not surprised lmfao aye man bring karin back for my guy punk 😭 mans cannot close out
1:35:59 hahahahahahaha ☠️💀
Shooty!
Hope one time Justin Wong cast a SF Tournament with Daigo Umehara .... will be epic hahahahaha
Andre allowed back on events huh...
IDoms Manon is scary 😱
12:30 is that a dude with a mullet and horseshoe mustache wearing an adidas jogging suit?
And Punk sells again ladies and gentlemen 😂
NuckleDu w/ that salt play cutscene. Lol.
I don’t care what anyone says, Manon is a problem
Idom had a taste of the dark side 😂
