I can already imagine the conversations Wawa's gonna have at school... - "I beat the 3rd gym leader in Pokemon Black 2! It was so hard!" - "LOL Im a world champion in KOF XIII."
It's hard to believe that Wawa would end up winning the Red Bull DBFZ World Tour in Japan. I didn't even know he competed when he was SO YOUNG in KOF XIII, my lord!
Shit! I remember watching this when it happened, and then completely forgot about Wawa for 7 years. He comes back in DBFZ and I'm like "Where did this kid come from!?" This gets recommended to me because I've been going down a KOFXIII rabbit hole the last week, and now it's all coming together.
if only more kids actually know this game, it's way too hard for some adults but with intense practice then certain a child could become really fluent at executing combos, similar to like playing a piano i think
Well yeah, if you create a game that has harder execution than all other fighting games, you cannot translate learned skills. This is not a good thing mind you. It automatically makes the game less popular because it feels so foreign.
@@pkrockin3923 Clearly not all fighting games are the same - most intentionally go out of their way to avoid not only the motion complexity of SNK titles, but the tightness requirements for their motion controls. A grand total of zero other fighting game franchises have a similar barrier of entry, most of which are vastly more popular partially for this reason alone. Clearly fighting games ARE for me: ua-cam.com/video/OhpV0KeDxuE/v-deo.html That's just one example of a video I made over the many years I've been alive. Go work on your trolling skills and come back - I see some potential and you just need some practice in the trolling lab. Polish those insult attempts before you try a runback.
No, what he has is beyond the game...he understands the feelings and emotions that are running through the minds of the players in many situations, feelings like fear, desperation, nervousness, etc. He knows when people want to jump, turtle, rush in, etc. It's very rare for someone at this age to have such a good grasp of the human mind and people's tendencies in different situations. This is why I always say, being truly good at fighters shows a lot about someone in real life.
16:20 Wawa 11 years old enter the Fight. Incrivel, tão jovem e extremamente afiado em um jogo complexo, dificil e de muita memória muscular, e ainda prever o que o adversário vai fazer. Quando eu tinha 13 ja cheguei em final de campeonatos, o que é absurdo, mas com 11... caraca. Então ele deve ter começado com 9/8, com apoio muito bom de pessoas próximas, que entendem como explicar a dificuldade de um jogo de luta frenético.
Wawa is awesome and all the hype is justified. Now imagine how hype ppl were when Xiahai was wrecking everyone in the arcades in KOF 97 and 98 when he was like 7 or 8 years old? Wawa is on track to be as dominant as him in the future.
The fact that he IS playing this game instead of, say, SF4 or UMvC3, is paramount to the respect this kid deserves - not to mention he took out two grown men who are seasoned veterans. Wawa, Vive le vos awesome!
Ese chaval tiene madera, el mejor de todos los de la competición, y estamos hablando de uno de los juegos de lucha más difíciles que hay. Brutal el chaval
the kid lost when someone actually had the brains to counter his hyper aggressive style, props to Tom Sawyer.. but even more props to Dooms lol. but yeah the kid is good. I hope he watched Dooms' Iori tear through Tom's Robert lol it'd be a good mentor/student moment
The kid goes head on aggressively. He's got a few combos figured out but i believe against a real professional player he doesn't stand a chance. A counter style (i would go for Maxima) would have caused him great pain.
This kid is seriously very good, he has excellent control of his characters. He loves controlling the air with high priority jump attacks, he should play Mr. Karate.
Wawa !!!! Just Wow ! This is the future. No, no ! You are the future ! I don t know if Kenpachi didn t take u seriously but the results are in the house !!! Congratulations kido !!!
This kid has learned way more than Noah and Winrich. This kid isn't a joke. I hope he gets sponsored and gets to play overseas. Mad talent this kid has.
Man I just started playing this game (my 1st fighting game ever btw) and I'm having trouble pulling off a 3 hit combo consistenly, I mainly have trouble with the motion directions cuz I easily mess em up especially for the dragon punch.
I really hope we can see Wawa play here at next EVO :3 kof rocks...reminds me of most of us kids in Mexico xD going to the arcades with our friends to play Kof
These Players from the state I don't think realize just how many great players there are all over the world and in places you would never think...like Morocco, Israel, Brazil, Australia...etc...
my lil bro is pretty good at Garou: Mark of the Wolves ever since he was 14. And he's a TRUE prodigy at Stepmania since the age of 11 but at 12 is where he started getting extremely good. =)
It's not about beating 15-20 year olds. There's many 15-30 year old players that have the minds of a 10 year old, you see them all the time online in SF4, Marvel, SfxT, etc. They are just terrible players and the accomplishment here wasn't that this 10 year old was beating 15-30 year olds. The accomplishment is that this 10 year old had the level of play and ability to beat other TOP players of Morocco...and not just to beat them but to make them look like children.
wawa is my son we looking for sponsoring and still training for other tournamnet!! i have personnaly teach it and seriously he's a very solid player with very fast reaction time (=good gard) very good offensif and he practice and versus a lot.why 7 people dont like this vid??? i dont say that cause he's my son but WAWA IS REALLY AWsooooooome
Noah is a 10 yr old too and here in the USA he participated in MVC3 tournament at EVO and preformed outstandingly...so?... I'm not sure, but I mean lots of teens play these games >,
I can already imagine the conversations Wawa's gonna have at school...
- "I beat the 3rd gym leader in Pokemon Black 2! It was so hard!"
- "LOL Im a world champion in KOF XIII."
lol, this comment is still hilarious.
I'm amazed that my comment is still being liked/replied to 6 years later.
Also this video is still sick and so is KOF.
King of DBZ now
10 years ago !!????! Omg
It's hard to believe that Wawa would end up winning the Red Bull DBFZ World Tour in Japan.
I didn't even know he competed when he was SO YOUNG in KOF XIII, my lord!
"This guy is going to grow up into something savage"
Oh you have no idea
foreshadowing
He's a prodigy, man. Seven years later, he's out here annihilating people in DBFighterZ.
@@jakoski Hope he pays KoF again too when KoFXV comes out.
*sorry meant "plays".
My guy wawa
Today, this kid won EVO... Let's go WAWA !
and now, in 2022 this kid wins EVO DBFZ tournament, great story
When the guy behind Wawa did the cut throat......WOW
19:34
The kid saved the whole team. He's an underdog. I was on the edge while his fight with Kenpachi.
Really a master of kyo
Let the avatar finish his job
DANG. Wawa needs a standing ovation; that was awesome!
That kid is possessed
OMG!
Shit! I remember watching this when it happened, and then completely forgot about Wawa for 7 years.
He comes back in DBFZ and I'm like "Where did this kid come from!?"

He wins 3 times before '-'
lose

Oh wow, omg... I'm speechless... I've been playing fighting games longer this kid is alive and I've never made the finals of anything. Great stuff!!!
"THE ORIGINS OF WAWA"
Holy Crap this kid's a monster!! That comeback against Yuri with Shen???
That was fucking incredible by Wawa! Such maturity, you would think you are watching a seasoned KOF veteran.
That kid has artificial intelligence....
Wawa
THE KID IS TALENTED
i remember watching this video when it came out, and now i wonder how does he has grow up the kid
time really fly
Now he won the French playoffs. He is too powerful.

Holy crap. The 10 year old kid is a fucking beast.
i know XD

coming back here after wawa winning dbz evo
Everyone that comes back to this knows they're here for Wawa.
The fact that he IS playing this game instead of, say, SF4 or UMvC3, is paramount to the respect this kid deserves - not to mention he took out two grown men who are seasoned veterans.
Wawa, Vive le vos awesome!
Wawa is different bruh. Now he the best dbfz player 9 years later
i would do anything for another KOF in this art style
I don't think snk want to get back into this art style
@@buddiosgaming8541 even if they wanted, they can't
@@kazuma112 why
@@mariogriffin6906 it was extremely expensive to produce and nearly sent SNK into bankruptcy
It's simply a pleasure to see a kid playing that way...he'll become the best kof player in the world
and he did
I love the commentator when Wawa comes on. "OH MY DAYS!" Classic xD
Amazing Grand Final, great tournament and great to see a new warrior like Wawa, he was incredible. Hope to see him in EVO!
Amazing 10 years old #KOF player doing great on these grandfinals!
How come I still didn't give a like to this video?... Pure legend.
At 10 years old and playing like this makes absolutely no sense - and it was KOF13 smh
The kids is Moroccan origine
no sorry :D
mais oui je le connais personnellement
mais oui je le connais personnellement
mais oui je le connais personnellement

Got recommended this. Damn such an old awesome vid. I remember playing this game.
Somebody sponsor this kid fast! KOF XIII isn't the easiest game to learn but it will make you a better player period.

Did doom say bankai lol
Younes ERRATI
Well, Frionel is a top player who already beat Haregoro, Koukou, and Wawa also beat Mago
@Cee Z of course he improved over 7 fucking years
I think anybody that goes out to tournaments and supports their games deserve respect whether it be umvc3, sf4, or kof.
damn bro! 10 years old and already that good at KOF 13?!
2019?
Wawa is a EVO CHAMPION now!
This kid is seriously very good, he has excellent control of his characters. He loves controlling the air with high priority jump attacks, he should play Mr. Karate.
The execution on this kid is amazing! He's on point with everything.
Wawa !!!! Just Wow ! This is the future. No, no ! You are the future ! I don t know if Kenpachi didn t take u seriously but the results are in the house !!! Congratulations kido !!!
US comments : "Oh nice uppercut oh oh what a nice uppercut oh my dayz"
The worst comments ever lol
HAHAHAHAHAHA
This commentary is amazing! MORE OF THIS GUY PLEASE!
WAWA's style playing of Kyo and Iori is the most correct way.
boom bam bop bada bop boom pow!! 25:22
Bro Wawa was a beast since he was a kid
I'm just witnessing Wawa's origin story before winning dbfz national championship
LET THE GODLIKE KID FINISH HIS MATCHES MAN, DON'T STOP THE MOMENTUM BY PICKING HIM UP AND CELEBRATING!!
Wawa is the hero that we need, this friggin kid right here!
This is officially the most amazing thing ever.
The foreshadowing here is STRONG
cant count how many times I've dabbed everytime that kid pulls off something epic
This kid has learned way more than Noah and Winrich. This kid isn't a joke. I hope he gets sponsored and gets to play overseas. Mad talent this kid has.
this kid deserve RESPECT!
what games he play??
He is now a Dragon Ball FighterZ player
Kid is moroccan too this is basically morocco vs moroccans
no he's french

@@berthemarwan7518 what,that kid is you? lmao
Read my first reply.
It's the excitement that comes from seeing a 10 year old boy actually understanding deeper fighting game mechanics.
Man I just started playing this game (my 1st fighting game ever btw) and I'm having trouble pulling off a 3 hit combo consistenly, I mainly have trouble with the motion directions cuz I easily mess em up especially for the dragon punch.
WHERE YOU GOIN ? WHERE YOU GOIN ? YOUR NOT GOIN ANYWHERE
this kis is insaneeeeeeeeeeeeeee
GOOD JOB SON
jaja nice job, that Wawa rocks!
The kid should really have won , he's a fuckin pro! He should come again for XIV tournament.
***** why?
YUMYUMYUM YUMYUM it's really not though. XIV is honestly a better game even if its not beautiful.
YUMYUMYUM YUMYUM I agree XIV is good,but the art style sprites and presentation are beautiful in XIII.
best reflexes/reactions ive seen in a while
Yo that kid.....is the future lol, one of my boi's from a KOF facebook group was like:
"Wawa, the Gohan of KOF."
That's crazy here in 2019 he plays DBZ figherz and is 2nd best, just easily beat sonicfox. He just started in DBFz!
HIS FEET DON'T EVEN REACH THE FLOOR!
the birth of a legend
MadKoF who played that match was in the Korean team.
I really hope we can see Wawa play here at next EVO :3 kof rocks...reminds me of most of us kids in Mexico xD going to the arcades with our friends to play Kof
Well I have seen,11yr old MVC3 player, Noah compete at a tournament last year :)...he did pretty well
@Hakf hi can you upload the other world team cup matchs like Algeria vs Morocco and Algeria vs Belgium please?
These Players from the state I don't think realize just how many great players there are all over the world and in places you would never think...like Morocco, Israel, Brazil, Australia...etc...

And he's a TRUE prodigy at Stepmania since the age of 11 but at 12 is where he started getting extremely good. =)
Does anyone know what happened to WaWa???
I'd really like to see him make a comeback when 14 drops next month.
He's still playin
He played at a tournament of Dragon Ball FighterZ not so long ago, search Wawa Dragon Ball FighterZ
This kid is officially the best...

En donde 😮, yo también soy de por aquí jaja
Jajaja que loco
Awesome Wawa, really awesome!!!
This little boy is amazing player.
It is amazing to see just a 10 year old play this like a pro.
True again. But still; this kid is quite exceptional, and what he does, many 10 year olds would only dream of.

Que é isso mano? O moleque assombrou campeonato... Esse não merece palmas, mas, o tocantins inteiro, MITO!!!!
Think someone can do an analysis on wawa's performance?
I'm trying, I found a few locals so hopefully they can show me the ropes faster than I'd figure it out alone.
awesome wawa respect
actually, what happened to the commentators? Some guy kept saying "oh my days / oh my god-sh". Was he crazy or what?
Holy shit this kid is good. Not only execution wise, but he plays very smart.
I don't know anything about KOF but that kid seems really good
cual esel nombre del niño? para ver como esta jugando en la actualidad, ya han pasado casi 3 años .. :)
do we have any updates on this kid's fgc presence?
You haven't heard? Wawa is one of the top Dragon ball FighterZ players in the world
2000 was made by the original SNK.
2002 is not worth mentioning?
Are you guys gonna upload the singles Kof tourney?
