I love that some of the old acclaimed players of USF4 are still playing the game and playing it very well.

Oh man, these sets bring it back. I remember watching spookys stream and weeklys and both it was either PIE Smug or PIE Zeus playing for winner, sometimes each other. They were unstoppable.

As always, Zeus proves why all Vega matchups are 5/5 😂😭 Smug vs. Zeus sets always get me hype

I remember finally playing SFIV I started with super then moved up to ultra bout a month later. My first character i picked up was vega it was hard cause I had no idea how to properly play him at all, I would just cheese my friends by flying the whole time cause they didn't know how to deal with it. Either way, I wanted to start getting serious so I looked up Vega videos and the first one I saw was Pie Zues. I learned so much by watching those compilations and videos along with watching other good vega players and to think the 4 vega players I watched all had a different style of approach and fighting. I figured out I actually like being mad aggressive with vega but I knew when to start taking it slow though especially going up against Kens, Cody's and Dudleys. Either way I gotta thank zues for making me a great vega player! Sorry for the story just wanted to show my appreciation.

@22:33 that comeback was godlike! Best Dudley vs best Vega. That was a treat. Im actually more impressed you held up that well vs this guy

Vega players are definitely hard especially if they know what they are doing. Engravings for example. Mad respect for that match dam. Vega can be so annoying

Seeing smug sit there in silence was... something else 🤣

4:07 that whiff punish was godlike

My boy Smug always gets super quiet when he goes into try-hard mode, fighting for his life like R. Kelly.

jeez man you guys still play like SF4 never went away, godlike stuff from both of ya, great set!

I remember playing Claw back in the day and searching through every one of Zeus' video's I could find just to steal some tech!! Hey man, if your reading this, just know that you helped at least one fellow Claw player take home a few grand finals wins at his local tournament!!

Sometimes I just have to admire how Capcom crafted a set of fighters with so unique fighting styles so well. Especially the characters created during the SFII and Third Strike games. I love watching Vega, Dudley, Yun, Chun Li, Dhalsim, Makoto, and a host of others, by people who have mastered their move set.

Narrator in high ranks: I've never seen a combo that intense Narrator in low ranks: I've never seen a combo

Zeus Vega is a high-level assassin! Incredible play from both sides 👏

Zeus, THE only one vega player. I missed him tooooo much . Ty so much for upload this, always loved to watch the matchups between you both. Btw, I'm really impressed by the lack of knowledge of the ppl in the chat, calling vega "cheap" and "taking advantaje of lag", despite of the amount of years that this game have, those ppl didn't learn anything about this game, lol.

This Vega is at the highest level a character can be at. Tough match for anyone for sure. His range and combos are on point.

It’s crazy to think that just by watching this set, I’m still learning so much about the match up and Vega’s options on offense and defense. The counter hit s.mk, c.mk, c.mp EX FBA combo was something I never seen before, and that was *chef’s kiss*.

Man, what a beastly Vega player. Makes me excited about getting back to the grind in 6, even though he won't be in that game.

You can always tell a Smug video when he's serious, because his commentary goes out the window and we get some really intense games.

"BOOLIT BOOLIT !!!" "7 piece, LOTTA biscuit !"

5:38 the way dudley just zooms in caught me offguard lmao

Man, this truly feels like a NLBC throwback between two of Team PIE's finest players.

You two play this game very well. Thanks for the video Smug, imma big fan :)

2:20 Yooooooo. We need this charge Vega back !!! A zeus is an animal !!!

Bruh... 5:55 that was filthy

This match took me back in PIE ZEUS era. Good times. Can’t forget his matches against Sanford Santhrax Kelly.

late sf4 nlbc era was so fire: smug, zeus, dieminion on stream, lee chung, chris hu, pie sci on the mic, that was my personal golden age for fgc streams.

As someone who mained Vega back 4, I miss watching players like Zeus and Chris King. Always a learning experience

USF4 Vega move set in SFV…….one could dream.

Back before SF5 came out, I remember watching the weekly tournament streams from Spooky with SF4, where the finale more often than not would be between Smug and Zeus. Those were some really good matches and this totally brings me back.

Brings back memories of Lee Chung and Pie Sci commentary....I miss those days.

I still go back and watch some of the matches you two had at NLBC every now and then.

What a treat of a match coming from the hands of two highly skilled S.F. brothers. True skill,....learning never stops

thats Vega was clean AF!

Loved watching the stream back in the day. You, Sanford, Zeus, Shine, Rico and others had so many great matches. Loved Sanfords tears lmao, man shoulda picked top tier 😂

that was a HELLA lot more entertaining than SFV content

Sf4 vega is the most fun I had with a charge character

Dear Lord, please bless Smug for he uploaded USF.

Ay yo that Vega's footsies was mad clean

I dont play sf4 anymore but i love watching Smug play. dope sets

Its definitely dope seeing people play 4 more

Announcer - "No one could've seen that coming" I sure as heck didn't. That was awesome!

"It lagged" is wild.

I cant still hear the comeback from Zeus against ricky.... Zuuuuuuuz

Zeus Vega is out of this world.

Vega is my favorite character in SF4. Absolutely wonderful watching this. This guy plays kinda similar to me. Those are all the juicy strats and combos.

Ah memories of when I used to main Vega in this game. He is a menace I loved using him, I need to get back into fighting games.

The new hit song, "Smug got Smoked"...jajaja

You don't have to clickbait, you can just say you got absolutely skrekt, we won't judge

17:58 Nice!

Those ghost grabs of vega. Be coming out of nowhere....

3:05-3:13 *Corkscrew Cross* 🌀 🥊

This was when street fighter was worth spending time watching. Hopefully NLBC streams 6 when it drops. 5 was a POS.

Yo smig love you, your god-like flattop and your content. Glad I saw the see you whoop these mamajamas with the greatest of ease

Zeus Bipson is just as good too!! I want the PIE Chin set! His Cody was tight! Only Cody to really use the knife work!!!

Zeus the reason I continued playing sf4 when I had no character I liked. Waiting for him to come down from Mount Olympus for sf6...🌄

18:53 -19:07 Def a SMUG ft Dudley Moment😎

Very high quality matches ♡

this brings back NLBC nostalgia 😇

2:20 - 2:30 is fire The announcer's hype, check The KO sound effect, check Dudley's pain scream, check Vega's hype yelling, check lmfao

Man I remember watching Zeus an dr. Claw for Vega tech an footiez good times

I miss full charge character Vega, motion inputs on Vega (except for claw and mask removal) just feel wrong to me.

I remember this zeus vega....still remembering his fadc to ultra 2

Smuggs Playing all The Masters

Vega’s crouching hurtbox is one of the smallest in the game height wise. I remember when Daiminion had to have a Guile mirror grand finals at a major. Had to be the sleepiest grand finals in SF4 tournament history.

The greatest SF OF ALL TIME!!

I was thinking about zeus earlier. Funny coincidence

5:58 I never succeeded such rolling + SC.

this is my fav SF game and SF2 Turbo

This vega is ridiculous. Its the first time i see smug helpless

Zeus's defense was the hype! No mashing, good use of Vega's backdash, solid awareness of Vega's awkward anti-air hotboxes... Total package. Smug's still the most electrifying man in SF entertainment today... But, uh,... You gonna have try harder against somebody who knows how to block.

return of a claw god :OO

I remember playing Zeus way back on PS3. He has the most annoying playstyle ever lol. If you don't have decent footsies he'll make you feel completely helpless. Good memories.

Man this is lit thanks flat toppington

I like you for chalanging the real good players keep going smoug.

Ever notice how similar SFV's Ed is to Dudley? I wonder how much Smug has used Ed.

5k player points is CRAZY. elite player

OH NO! SMUG GOT COOKED! IT'S ON TAPE TOO OH NOOOOO SMUG! LET ME AT HIM! I WILL DEFEAT YOU ZEUS!

I miss playing as usf4 Vega

Maybe we'll see Chin come knocking next.

His Footsies is kind of Gawd like 🤙🏾

Damn it was some good fights kind washed u towards the end

Love dudley and vega!! Shin is a awsome vega player in SFV

Vega is always the most stylish

SmuggnU, one of the most entertaining players in the world

I would definitely give Zeus the work again

Dudley like a mixture of Ed and balrog

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

18:44 - 18:50 For Vega! Awsome moment

That Vega tho

That guy is good 👍

3:57 I have a confusion. When we play in daily, the opponent would use SA to neutralize the dropping down scratch from Vega. But I didn't see a pro play use that. I don't know why.

Best Sf ever ...

Ah takes me back to the nlbc days

Dang Vega clapped them cheeks!

Pie Zeus, first player I saw routinely beat smug

I miss the PIE squad playing this game, Smug, Zues, Chin, Psi, Chung, etc. The hype during the Big Two days will never be matched IMO.

0:20 woa

04:07 that 17 hit combo by smug took more than half of vega's life, hot damn...

My man zeus 🔥🔥🔥
