A compilation of "highlight reel" matches by the famous Japanese 3rd strike player, Yuki Otoko (雪男). One of the strongest Akuma players of all time, Yuki Otoko is perhaps best known for his OCV of Senaka, Nuki, KO, Pierrot, and Kokujin, as frightening a team as has ever been assembled (parts of this OCV are shown here). However, he has numerous other accomplishments as well, including top 4 finishes at SBO5 in 2007, and again at SBO6 in 2008. Sporting his trademark white Akuma (hence the name Yuki Otoko, or "snow man"), he continues to be an inspiration to Akuma players everywhere with his initimable style and stellar competitive play.
This video is intended to be a 15 minute highlight reel, with emphasis on:
1. Full matches. Not just isolated clips or rounds.
Note The first 10 or so seconds of the last match included here were not recorded, but it's close enough to a full match that I felt it was worth including.
2. A wide range of elite opponents. Not just an extended set of games against the same person, or walkovers over less talented players.
3. Tournament/competitive play, especially Tougeki/SBO. No GGPO/casuals here.
