Fuudo vs. Mago: Battle of the Fei Long Masters (First to Ten)

Fuudo (Fei Long) vs. Mago (Fei Long) - SSFIV:AE

Oh my. What happens when you get two of the best Fei Long players in the world to duke it out for utter Bruce Lee Fei Long supremacy? This and it’s freaking epic. Check out the mirror match series between Mago and EVO 2K11 champion Fuudo. It’s a race to ten wins.

If you thought WolfKrone’s C. Viper was impressive, you’ve got to see these two masters battle out with the same top-tier street fighter.

Video – Zangief Standing 720 for Ultra 1 (SSFIV:AE)

Video - Zangief Standing 720 for Ultra 1 (SSFIV:AE)

I’m still partial to Blanka, since he is my main character in the Street Fighter franchise as a whole, but I’m really starting to enjoy playing as Zangief too. And as you can see in the video embedded below, he has some pretty sneaky tricks up his non-existent Russian sleeves.

We’ve already seen some magic with C.Viper and WolfKrone, but Desk has a great video of how to do Zangief’s Ultra 1 without jumping and without having to “buffer” any of the motion. You may have seen people do the buffer with a couple different moves, but this video demonstrates a true standing 720. Incredible.

You’ll want a nice arcade stick to be able to pull this off, but even then, this requires God-like execution. Can you do the standing 720 with Zangief in Street Fighter IV?

And just for good measure, here’s a Zangief highlight reel, also from desk.

The Magic of WolfKrone and C. Viper

Maybe you caught some of WolfKrone’s magic during the EVO 2K11 tournament earlier this year. Maybe you didn’t. Whatever the case, it’s because of players like WolfKrone that Crimson Viper is slowly becoming a top-tier character in Super Street Fighter IV (and Arcade Edition too, of course). He is easily the best Viper player in the United States. Check it out.
