Early Sunday morning, Daigo and Poongko square off in a first to 10 games competition. This is going to be a huge match for both of them. Can Daigo prove EVO was a fluke? Can Poongko make Daigo look like a scrub?
Street Fighter fan animation pays tribute to Daigo Parry, recreating the fighting game moment from Evo that became legend.
Daigo Umehara is one of the greatest fighting game players of all time. His legacy added a new footnote over the weekend when he dominated a stacked Street Fighter V tournament. And it’s strange that folks still managed to be shocked by the results.
Well, it was shocking in the sense of how dominant he was. Normally he doesn't obliterate the competition in that way and had pretty consistent whiff punishes that are hard to pull off in sf5.
Livestreaming platform Mildom announced that it has taken on the sponsorship of Daigo Umehara's team Beast, which will be renamed Mildom Beast.
Poongko is a machine but Daigo is still the beast.
They already played a 30 match set after Evo and Daigo won 22 matches with Poongko winning only 8.
I'm not going to spoil this one though for people who haven't seen it.
