ikr I thought he was a tas bot with how god like he was with execution lol

It's how I wish I could play Gen...

I don’t know if he’s using pad or stick, but if he’s using pad HolyCr4P 😳🤯🔥

I was gonna comment on that too. Natural Gen.

@@Chadius 😄 same here. I'm actually going play sfa3 to see if I figure out some of gen fu play style

That was straight sauce. I was like damn…

It was in the making too. You have a lot of options after super but it’s all dependent on how the air tech. Justin did a few air blocks after super earlier so that was the right call

@@fredmitchell5987 And he did air-throw just enough times to avoid being predictable, so that read worked like a charm.

I wish he did the Level 2 Dash Super into Uppercut/Level 1 Air Grab super, that shit can work if done quickly enough but i didn't see it :(((

Haqq's one of the best for sure. Alioune was the top A-Gen back in the day before SF4 dropped (at least not counting Japan). VER recently won Ultimate Zero 14 with Gen as well (largest A3 tournament).

Yup first time I see a good gen in alpha3

Does he have any streaming channel? I would love to see him play again.

Wouldn't say "In gaming". That's a ridiculous statement. In fighting games maybe. Absolutely not gaming in general.

@@nexxusty I think the reason you consider that such a ridiculous statement is a fundamental lack of appreciation for the decision making involved in high level fighting games. Either because you haven’t experienced it yourself, and/or haven’t been involved with it in other genres. I’ve done both. I’ve won Halo tournaments, been to Grand Finals in Madden, Tekken and Street fighter tournaments (All locals mind you, I’m not some big name). And I’ve been analyzing several genres of competitive gaming since before streaming was a thing, when you had to fish for cassette tapes. So I can make the comparison. Competitive gaming boils down to reactions, game knowledge, mechanical skill and decision making. I respect other genres and the life time of mastery it can take to compete at those levels. But fighting games have you cycle through its giant speed chess wheelhouse of choices in a way that other types of games pale in comparison at the higher level. TLDR It wasn’t just a random statement. The praise for this guy is well earned, try playing him for yourself.

Bro where is the scene in Philly? I want to play and see where I actually stand lol. Haven’t been competitive in years but I love good fights

Bro. He's like.. yelling "Please die" while there's a baby there. ... Wake up to how rotten life is. something peaceful. What a joke.

They had to make Gen a low tier after this lmao

hm 🙏🏻

Gen is EASILY the coolest character in the franchise. And his A 3 iteration is the most awesome one! Also, contrary to most other viable characters, he doesn’t rely on V Ism. Gen is actually better in A Ism, which fits him well thematically as a Swiss Army knife type of character.

@@PetterNe So i used him correctly by not picking V or X, that's good to know.

I personally played him in X. He's a lot easier to use cuz you don't have to do stance switches.

Gen is a great V character tbh. I think they’re both viable if the Gen can reliably crouch cancel out of the V which is hard than he’s a little better imo. Once that guy starts canceling the fierces into super he’s going to be a god

I just realized I like watching Justin's matches because (besides being into a lot of the same games I like) he's fun to watch whether he wins or loses, and actually I almost like it sometimes when he does lose because he's not arrogant about it as if he's some expert know-it-all that got cheated when things don't go his way. He's just there to improve his skill and enjoy the game no matter what, and he can still be surprised and still get beaten sometimes, but he always gives it his best and keeps getting better. Justin just has a basically decent attitude towards fighting games in general.

@@howdyouknow True that! Joe, he does plays for keeps and he can also admit defeat and recognizes skill....12.54 after The combo, his face says it all.

Oh yeah!

I think 3rd strike is The goat, but yeah, alpha 3 is reallyyy good

It’s amazing, but USFIV is undoubtedly the best one from a technical standpoint. It’s masterfully balanced and its high-level gameplay is extremely interesting.

Yeah, for me Alpha 3 was my most favorite SF game ever.

Me, street fighter alpha 2 gold is the best..😁

I want to play you... Here comes a new challenger! Lol

@@chrissmith8216 lmao i hardly play these days mate and lost my skill somewhat but if youre on switch we can have a few matches

@@xVNDL_ :^( im on PSN

Flip activate gets you out of that setup. That's why he wasn't going for it much.

@@KyokujiFGC Wait...did something change? I remembered that super grabbing you no matter which direction you flipped. Granted, that was pretty much the first version of the arcade release.

@@TheRealFreshOJ Activate breaks the freeze from the super, and the invincibility frames give you time to press a button or fall out of range. Timing is tight, but it gets you out.

Gotcha. I was looking at it from the "pre V-ism" Era. My bad. We didn't know how nasty V-ism could really be until Diago Umehara came over to the US and played Alex Valle. Yet another handy V-ism benefit.

he also gets 2 jump arcs that are both good

@@ghaspghasping5526 also very true...he is hard to counter at times because of that shit 😂😂😂

His whiff air grab makes him fall to the ground faster. That's why Justin couldn't land AA activates reliably.

I prefer SFA3 UPPER, the roster made the game complete.

It could have been, if it wasn’t for V-ism infinites…

@@KenMasters. Alpha 3 Max took it even further.

@@81carlos Alpha 3 Max? Nah. What the PSP truly needed is Alpha Anthology with new and exclusive game-modes. Also, adding Eagle, Ingrid, Maki, and Yun made zero sense, because it causes plot holes and continuity errors. The game they should’ve been put in is the PS and XBOX ports of 3rd Strike.

@@PSNMyfoot V-ism style was nerfed in Alpha 3 Upper because of the infinites. V-ism crybaby players hate on that version because of the nerf. If you go to the chat room in Fightcade and bring up Alpha 3 upper they start whining about it. I never really used V-ism. Mostly A-ism, so it never really affected my game.

I dont play gen at all and i completely agree, he would be a great addition.

Huh? He was great in some iterations of IV but required a lot of skill, which fits the character well thematically.

He was definitely top tier in Zero 2 along with Sagat.

@@exe2517 Top tier?? Not really, we have Rose, Sakura, Rolento and Gouki in that game, Gen is probably high A

Have you played FFLNS ULTIMATE V.03 using Master Gen? And if so how was your use with him...

@@DARKONE-E.I.C.O.S.A.T. I never played any mugen
