This video is of a match from Evolution 2004. Anyway, the game is Street Fighter 3rd Strike and the players are Daigo (Ken) vs. Justin Wong (Chun-Li). If you're an avid SF player, you'll be freakin amazed.

And for those who don't play. Let me explain a little parrying. To parry, you have to press FORWARD for each individual hit. So to parry someone's attack, you have to defend at the EXACT point of impact on your character, otherwise you're f**ked.

Also, this match is being played during the Semi-Finals. If Daigo wins, he advances. If Justin Wong wins, Daigo is taken out of the tournament since Daigo came from the Losers Bracket because it's a Double-Elimination tournament

Here is the video:

I love that vid. It represents what awesome players can do in the heat of the moment under amazing pressure.

Not to burst the awesome bubble. But Chun-lis player was "telegraphing" (making it pretty obvious he was trying to do a super move).. and daigo was ready for it. However, it takes skill under all that pressue to not screw up the parry, and following up with a combo / cancel into a super move. which is darn cool.
