helps disabled kids during the week and disables kids on the weekends.

he become a champion, went into military service, get a degree, girlfriend and full time work, and then return as a champion again. seems like a perfect life.

Devil Jin was like: *Its been a while my old friend Qudan*

Devil Jin when Qudans came back: "You're as beautiful as the day i lost you."

qudans: “I think I’ll come back to tekken now” Every tekken player on earth: “why do I hear boss music?”

Everyone else : Sponsored jersey Qudans : White tutrleneck

This man knocked off ten years of rust to come back as the best I can't knock the rust off of not playing siege for a month XD

0:42 "And then, he vanished..." Then everything changed when the Fire Nation attacked.

Qudans: * drinks his water * Commentators: "OH MY GOOOOD!!!!!"

qudans: "maybe i´ll play tekken again" Every pro tekken player on earth: *starts sweating*

Back from the dead. He deserves to be a champion. He serves military service for 2 years, helps disabled kids, he grieves for his father when he died, Qudans able to make a statement that "I will return and I will become a champion." That is a perfect comeback for the true legend., and "Legend never dies."

so ip man was resurrected as a tekken fighter...

"Only the Avatar mastered all four elements. Only he could stop the ruthless firebenders. But when the world needed him most, he vanished."

Tekken nostalgia hit me harder than my parents, thanks.

"A decade changes a lot of things but a champion is always a champion." This one send chills on my body omg!

"I think I'll go back to playing tekken" Pro players : Haha that's a good joke....your joking right????

The character loyalty is rediculous with this guy, Devil Jin since day 1

Qudan: my career is really taking off now for the best. The Army: I'm about to end this whole man's career

17:20 The face that JDCR made when he noticed that Qudans is crying

Game starts* Devil Jin: I feel so much power flowing in my body, Wait a minute... I remember this.. It's Qudan!! I can definitely tell. You are finally awake my old friend.

Even though they gave him a lot of praise I still think they didn't do his earlier dominance justice. He was just on a different level, you always felt like he was 5 steps ahead of the competition and getting a hit on him felt like luck more than calculation. Finding a 240p Qudans vid online was like Christmas morning. Another thing about his comeback was he had a full time job while training. He wouldn't be able to train everyday and when he would play it wouldn't be for too long. That's why he started playing again in 2011 but really only returned to form around 2015. When streaming started getting bigger he was finally able to go from full time to part time and make up the rest from streaming. He essentially had to rebuild himself and become a top level player twice in his life time. Honestly his story could be a full length documentary film and I hope one day someone makes one about him cause there are so many levels to his story.

If this was turned into anime I would definitely watch it.... Its got everything, past glory, responsibilities halting him, emotional trauma and rising to the top after a decade with hard work and dedication. LOVE IT.

Never heard of him until now, Suddenly I feel like I've been through an entire history lesson on Tekken, Congrats on this dude

It's actually true.... "Legends never die"

Finally a qudans vid omg. Thank you so much for making this video.

I don’t even play fighting games but holy shit I got hyped

He was a South Korean military secret weapon for two years.

He left Tekken for a long time and came back on Tekken Tag 2. That must have been cancerous.

tekken's biggest prize pool in history: $60k meanwhile fortnight kid wins 3 million... nothing against fortnight, but I wish fighting games get the attention it deserves

im happy that the tekken scene is getting more attention!

For me, the most inspiring thing is his age, he is currently 33 I'm just 24 and when I play sometimes Y say " I'm not that young, I do not have the same reflects I used to" but he set his mind to be a winner, what an strong acttitude, he inspired me.

It's amazing how rangchu beat him with panda just goes to show that even low tier characters can beat really good characters with good practice

17:02 "im numbah one!" no matter how loud and noisy the world is, a champion's voice will always be heard.

This is such a well made video. I went from never hearing of this guy, playing a game I never followed to completely rooting for him in the space of 15 mins!

the detail i love the most is what he wears to these tourneys. the scene has changed to the point that most top players have teams and uniforms. Qudans enters, no team attached to his name and in a turtleneck sweater. absolutely baller.

Qudans feels like the embodiment of the phrase: Form is temporary, class is permanent.

I don't play tekken and obviously I don't know this guy... But I cried at the end too.

11:20 "I can't even speak English right now" LMAO

can you imagine if he ran from the military to avoid his service and kept playing tekken? kinda like HWOARANG? :OO

The man dissapeared like the avatar. Got a whole life and came back after a decade to remind mfsof 2 things, 1. he ain't dead and 2 that he still got it. 🔥🔥

15:15 Commentator: He's gonna have to go low Qudans: *no, I don't think I will*

Credits to Core-A Gaming for that green arcade extract, go check the full video on his channel, it's awesome.

There is also an another reason as to why he retired early. A tekken player name NIN physically assaulted Qudans after he revealed NIN was responsible for stealing prize money and that his attitude was cancerous in Korean tekken scene. From the assault NIN damaged Qudan’s eye and had to go through surgery. This obviously contributed to his early retirement amongst other things mentioned in the video.

I love that Qudans always has hugged Knee. Wholesome

I’m not gonna call it hugging anymore it’s officially “Touching torsos”

You ever just revive yourself after 10 years to flex on NA?

This makes me so happy, every time he plays he looks like he is just so happy, no fear or frustrations he is just happy to be there enjoying the game!! Love how games can do this and community can make it better!!!

Qudans: plays tekken again Devil Jin: Where has ur life led u back to me

"Qudans? I haven't heard that name in years..."

"Everyone is touching torsos right now" -aris, 2017 We really need a video about him someday

I love these documentaries. Thanks for the work.

This was very heart warming, thank you.

Im not a big fan of fighting games, but watching these videos is somethings special

Was so heart broken for Qudans, Saint and JDCR. Damn those series are just on whole another level. They all won in my eyes.

Such inspirational story! I cried my heart out with this vid. Thanks a lot! Now im a Qudans fan!

this was a really inspiring touching story the feels after he won that major in the states wow i don't even watch fighters often but this was outstanding and entertaining also the guy seems so likeable cmon social worker lost his dad and wants some fun and well he practically learned a new game most games change so much after a decade it's ridiculous so do his reactions fall off most stories that go that arch have in rl a bad ending so massive props, thanks never give up guys

Just pointing out the godlike read at 15:17. Knowing to duck and punishing with a Rage Art that freezes the timer with 1 second to go. Qudans is a monster.

saint: *gets 1 point off qudans also saint: why do i hear boss music

I remember this and I'm still tearing up. Damn what a legend.

im just a random guy who travelling around youtube until i bump into this. not a tekken player, and dont even know this guy. but his story just great for any people to cry at the end.

this is worthy of the "RETURN OF THE KING" meme

Qudans vs Arslan ash Clash of two gods of different universes... It will be Epic, huge and a true Class to watch

Every game he's playing is just exciting. It's either a nail biter or some awesome showcase of skills. The crowd just goes wild when this legend plays.

Qudans truly is the real Jin of our universe. He is the Tekken champion the world needed

As a 12 yr old kid obsessed w T5DR, I was in love w the asian tekken scene. 10 yrs later I’m over the moon for the tekken scene. It’s never been so good to be a Tekken fan. Thanks Qudans for making my childhood so much fun

After 10 years The FGC: "It's just as I thought you are alive aren't you Qudans" :D

This guy's story deserves an anime or a manhwa adaptation. He literally defied all the odds having a long break. I can still remember the time i played him in evo 05, the guy is total beast.

Seeing the emotion on his face at the end of his comeback tournament legit put me in tears. You made your dad proud dude!

Quadans: It's time to come back to Tekken. Tekken Pro Gamers: It's a good day to die..

Man, Tekken is getting more and more recognition due to this channel. Keep making these series guys.

I haven't played Tekken since 3, and this still got me hyped. Great video.

Qudans is byfar my favorite Mishima player since watching his tournaments on Tekken 5. He inspired me to really step up my Kazuya game. He seems like such a genuine person. I hope to one day battle him and show him my PEWGFs. I'm sorry to hear about his father, He really had a tough road to get to where he is today. He deserves every success he achieves and more.

Thank you for this Video, Qudans and Tekken are deserving this ! :)

1 second left KO comeback: doesn't get any more exhilarating than that. Damn

Such a good video put together. Love it!!

These are amazing keep them coming

Remember when tekken was dominated by a panda? *yep* We legit need a rematch between these legends

8:23 I cant get over this electric. So clean, so perfect, not even a wavedash was seen. Qudans made it look like a one button move. My god.

Thanks you for this.

Nice vid, didn't know about qudans past. His return to Tekken was amazing. I especially liked his use of the rage art!! Great player a real Tekken #legend.

His face of happiness when he raised that trophy brings tears to my eyes.

EVO 2019 will be hype. Qudans, JDCR, Saint, Rangchu, Knee, Speedkicks, Lil Majin, JimmyJ, Pokchop, Chanel

Such a good video. I rewatch it every year

LEGEND never dies...😤 That really awesome guys.

People should watch those 3 sets between JDCR, Qudans and Saint. Clips don't serve any justice to how incredible they were.

Never even played this game but this was some anime redemption arc type shit. I feel emotional. Well put together.

"A decade changes alot of things. But a champion... is always a champion."

Really enjoying these Tekken videos.

I dont play fighting games. but i love seeing the excitement from the casters and the fans. damn.

I'm loving the FGC content. Finally the FGC is getting recognized more and more. Thank you for this.

Saint:wins one round Qudans:*leans forward*

Gotta love the dedication

Some GOOD A$$ TEKKEN right here. Thank god, I was waiting for this video.

You can never really forget how to play your favorite games. You might be gone for years but the muscle memory comes back and it's like you never left.

Shout-out to the editor of this montage. Brilliant!

17:02 Man, I teared up. Respect to Qudans, and the whole FGC, especially Tekken community, for bringing so many amazing moments and stories for us to enjoy.

Dudes who run this channel, thank you so much for this. Like, seriously, thank you.

I wasn’t familiar with him previously, but I shall now follow this man on every platform possible.

14:50-15:00 this is where my heart beated as fast as a blink of an eye, i almost went to hospital because of this.

I love coming back to this video and watching it again
