  • That was the only opportunity that combo feed meat bionic are giving Announcer some say is still screaming bionic arm to this very day.

  • Number nine.

  • I'm not even gonna lie to you guys.

  • Sometimes fighting games are animate, but for real there are times when a player is pushed to their very limits, and they have no choice but to go super safe or ultra instinct.

  • Sage mode.

  • Take your pick.

  • All I know is that at the evil 2016 Mortal Kombat X Grand Finals, Tech and Master brought out Sonic Fox's Final Four.

  • Sonic Fox is known for many things, including always wearing that Fox had.

  • But when Tech and Masters Kotal Con reset the bracket and took the next game, Sonic Box decided that enough was enough.

  • This time, he'd fight with his true power.

  • Oh, I don't think we've ever seen that before.

  • Now I know you guys couldn't see it because the hat fell off camera.

  • But I was at evil that year, and I can confirm that that had shook the Earth when it hit the floor because Sonic Fox finally removed his weighted training year.

  • And I'll just say that his strategy worked.

  • The celebration Sonic Fox.

  • Just like that, Number eight so went on.

  • Twitter called this guy out holding my has been called him.

  • A rate face looks like a zombie out of the walking way.

  • Live in an age where people can now get into Internet arguments in 280 characters or less.

  • Sometimes if we're really lucky, those turning toe fighting game grudge matches.

  • So let me give you the just in these do you care.

  • This year is J scant Snyder.

  • He's been fighting game seen for years and years now, closely with Marvel vs Capcom and this is Dollar on Sparrow.

  • But you can just call him Lo to your he's not actually that bad at fighting games.

  • Low tier God's mentality.

  • Definitely, it's doing this game.

  • He's one of the most well known rage, quitters and all around crap starters in the entire community.

  • So long story short.

  • Mr lt G here got into a huge twitter beef with this can't and they agreed to settle things on low tier God's home.

  • Ter Ultra street fighter four.

  • But the best part about this moment wasn't Len vis can't beat low tier fraud 10 to 6 and street fighter.

  • It was when this skin gave him a verbal beat down that he would remember for life.

  • There's gonna come a point when you forget about what happened and you're gonna want to come back at me and you're gonna want to wash the taste of my dick out of your mouth.

  • Words fail me where it's actually fail me.

  • I got nothing more to add.

  • This can set it off.

  • Number seven.

  • Very few names and fighting games are as recognizable as Daigo UMA Heart.

  • Even if you don't follow finding games, there's a chance you might have heard of this guy before.

  • A man has been one of the best street fighter players ever since the days of Street Fighter two Championship Edition.

  • He's one of the highest earning fighting and players of all time.

  • He's even got a manga about his early days as a putting professional.

  • Diego is deservingly immortalized as a fighting game.

  • Got even The gods can fall.

  • This is unprecedented way, way have matter.

  • Seen a beating like that?

  • Remember in Top 10 most satisfying video game moments when I talked about how good it feels to get a perfect I can't even imagine perfecting a fighting game legend on the biggest stage in the world and judging by that crowd, leader could number six.

  • Right now, Dragonball Fighters is both the new kid on the block and arguably the most popular fighting game out there.

  • It's that very rare gain.

  • It brings out the best of the best from every community out there.

  • Marvel vs Capcom Guilty Gear plays Blue and justice.

  • You name it.

  • When one of Street Fighter's best encounter the infamous Smash Brothers Malay God Slayer at CEO 2018 nobody could have anticipated their ridiculous hype.

  • Levels of Goichi persist.

  • Let's look at this.

  • We'll get this every single one of you watching this, you and me, we all would have gotten hit by that block strength.

  • Levin and Goichi were so back and forth in this lightning fast set that it really felt like an episode of BBC.

  • Obvious.

  • He has the reaction of a 25 year old.

  • I don't know what that supposed to mean, but you've got to love yipes and help pockets on that commentary.

  • And as if all of that didn't make for an exciting enough set, Goichi managed to bring the entire thing back with just one Bardack.

  • No sparking blast and a whole lot of meat.

  • 30 seconds on the on the time.

  • Wait, that wasn't even great.

  • Finals pelvis, Top 48.

  • Listen, man, with this next match, I don't even matter at this point.

  • That's it.

  • They take the chaos.

  • Got number five when you compare it to your dragon balls in your plays.

  • Blues Street Fighter Force seems like a really slow game, but that doesn't make it any less interesting to watch.

  • It trades fast paced combos for a tense chess match where a big damage combo could happen at any moment.

  • Occasionally, games might come down to the timer like they did when snake eyes Zandi took on Shan's again even 2014.

  • With the set tight up, 1 to 1 and the clock ticking down zero, that chess match exploded into a full on Checks on the table is going to do this the hard way.

  • Shan desperately throws an altar to get out of Sandy's range.

  • Or so he thought hasn't turned out.

  • Shin was still in range of a desperation ex green hand, which just clutched out a win for sneak Whoa!

  • Every single time I watch this movement.

  • I have to remember to breathe.

  • Breathe Nick number four.

  • Speaking of Shan, this guy is famous for being what's called a low tier here.

  • Oh, no, no, no, no, not that guy.

  • Basically a low tier hero gravitates toward playing his characters, who most people don't think are very good, and then they make them work Anyway.

  • Same story goes for his amazing Evo 2013 run with game, but before I make it sound like Shan is like a troll or something, his greatest strength isn't picking a character that you didn't practice against.

  • Because why would you take a look at his patients?

  • Look at that punished game in the part right top to Koumas, legs up just underneath the air.

  • Fire bother.

  • What a costume!

  • The round Everybody loves an underdog story wherever one can be found.

  • And even though she an is ah, high rated player watching this goofy martial arts master claimed the crown was beyond height number three and speaking of low tears No, no, we're done talking about you from the day icon was revealed for Super Street Fighter, for everybody said, Yeah, that's definitely a troll character.

  • Pecans main gimmick is that he could do this.

  • Move that oil some up so we can get more range on his attacks.

  • But a move usually leaves you open and be his range socks without it.

  • But he just so happens to be pretty good against Balrog.

  • So when Korean player infiltration was down 1 to 2 against PR ball raw eggs Balrog, he mulled over a very important decision.

  • Now infiltration, I was just about to say, might be able to go toe con a con is a hard counter.

  • To ensure enough he picked a con evil.

  • The crowd went nuts with every minor victory that this low tier weirdo managed to pull out.

  • And as infiltrations victory gradually became more and more of a reality, the arena what it with height, troll on icon.

  • So long number two comebacks in a lot of modern fighting games are by design.

  • Relatively come.

  • That's why we've got ultra X factor and staying trigger.

  • All that's But in the olden days, comebacks were earned by little more than your own solid game play.

  • In a game as nutty as Marvel vs Capcom, two comebacks deserved even more prints being on your last character against a team of three whose at almost full health trust is about of a situation as you think it is.

  • But never count Justin Wall.

  • Ah, a match that would make the whole world believe in the long factor Justin took down.

  • Yipes is Magneto, Storm and Cylon, all with a single loan cycle way you go on to win the set.

  • But in the immortal words of the matches, commentator, it's number one.

  • The single biggest fighting game franchise out there is undoubtedly street fight.

  • That's why you see so many street fighter moments in this top 10 street fighter.

  • 3/3 strike will always hold a special place in the hearts of many fighting and players and myself included.

  • But it also holds a special place in the broader competitive Gaming Hall of Fame, thanks to its now called evil Most 37 rare footage ago, actually angry in the semifinals of Evo 2004 Japan's legendary Daigo Imahara was sitting on a single pixel of health.

  • If he so much as blocked an attack, he'd still take enough damage to lose the entire match.

  • Meanwhile, Justin Wong Chun li was sitting on enough meter to do her ridiculous 15 hits.

  • Supermoon Justin throughout the super Daigo went super sick.

  • So if you don't know how Street Fighter three works, let me explain how ridiculous this is.

  • Daigo managed toe perfectly time his stick movements to the rhythm of Chumley's entire super.

  • If he slipped up even a little bit, he would have lost the entire match.

  • But as impressive as his defense was, his punishing response was Justus flogs.

  • The crowd went absolutely ballistic as Daigo combine into a super of his own, which took the round.

  • I know it's called Evil Moment 37 but it is number one for being a landmark event not just in fighting games but in competitive games as a whole.

  • It's been written about in books, referenced endlessly and other games and in just in one's own opinion, single handedly revived interest in a dying fighting game community.

  • And if that doesn't show you, her exciting fighting games can really be okay.

  • I respect your opinion, our Secret Number 11.

  • If you know you're gonna lose the one of the world's best, you might as well go out memorably.

  • That's probably what only son was thinking when going up against the mighty Poco at Evil 2015.

  • I cannot imagine a more ridiculous way to play.

  • Yeah, well oh, Nissan can.

  • Okay, the fact the crab goes wild.

  • Oh, but as if one pair of pepperoni is on stage wasn't enough, Fuko decided to play along right before massively out playing his opponent.

  • Did you see the ire off?
