I posted 2 of em :P

Got 3, all from Marvel

Marlinpie perfecting Fchamp his first time back in Vanilla (before he did it again in Ultimate)

Marlinpie changing it up with his Doom swag combos, can he do it in the middle of the screen?

And finally, MOST hype of it all, THIS

(Thing is I saw what his gameplan was in the last round, it was actually trying to PUSHBLOCK Pheonix into the trap, but he was SO CLOSE, luckily Fchamp went in it for him :V)

Marvel was made for hype. I love it.

since my replies are semi-unrelated to "greatest moments" i spoiler'd them

I agree it is floaty (You get used to it after you play the game for awhile), but the game is good overall. Not amazing, but solid. The only bad aspect is tripping

ding ding ding. also, i prefer floaty.

This is all opinion based but I honestly dislike fighters like MVC , SF and Tekken.

i used to dislike traditional fighters, but they've grown on me in a big way. still dislike mvc/tekken, specifically. virtua fighter is my all time favorite.

IMO it's amazing that he not only made that judgment call so elegantly, but he actually pulled off the timing of the parry itself with respect to each hit. It really does show how much strategy goes into these things at the top level despite the quickened nature of fighting games. Of course it's entirely possible that to expert players, landing a full parry is not all that hard (much like pulling off an 11-footer AAA is easy for us), but it's an amazing comeback either way.

at that point, daigo was forced to parry or completely avoid anything attempted by justin. honestly, justin would've been better off (smartly) spamming specials for chip, rather than using a super. even with the super, the odds were on justin's side, but he could've done better.

landing a full parry in a tournament setting is probably more like getting a AA on disregard. this would indicate why justin went for it. but daigo is best of the best, so he pulled it off.

what makes this scary is spark's ability to correctly block overhead/low with near perfection

this one is cool to watch fuudo bait all kinds of mistakes out of latif (all that VF training haha)
