Evo 2009 SF4 Champion: Umehara Daigo
Posted by RONIN/SS | Filed under Games
First of all, let me say that this was an incredible match. One of the best matches I have ever seen in tournament history. It may have even been better than Daigo’s previous major win versus Justin Wong at Evo 2004. It’s safe to say now that Daigo “The Beast” is the best Street Fighter player in the world after having defeating incredible competition at Evo this year. Justin Wong, the best player in America, hands down, brought a strong game to Daigo and it was an amazing, edge of your seat battle between these two greats (I watched the live stream at home on the edge of my seat screaming). But, at the end of the day, the best stepped forward and claimed the crown….again. Other impressive players were Ed Ma, Sanford Kelly (Who defeated reigning champ Justin Wong for the Marvel vs. Capcom 2 title), Shady K, and Dan from Japan. BTW, Sandford is dirty with Cammy, I’m watching for him next year.
