Love him or hate him, you’ve got to admit – Tokido is entertaining.
players: Tokido (Akuma-U1) vs ClakeyD (Ibuki-U2)
observations:
ClakeyD puts in a good performance, but ultimately runs out of tricks. Who would ever expect to see time expire in an Akuma vs Ibuki match? Not only does Tokido make that happen at 6:00, but he somehow extends for another 5 seconds. That dude is a turtle!
game: Super Street Fighter IV (Console)
venue: SoCal Regionals – Top 8 Losers Bracket

I wanted to call this “Tokido vs The Projector (IRL)” but couldn’t bring myself to do it since ClakeyD won a match.
This should be MatchVid of the Week :p
Epic pose by Aku–er, I mean Tokido.
That Akuma pose on the projector was priceless. That was a great set overall though, ClakeyD was a bit of a dark horse going up in the brackets.
What did you think of the Filipino Champ vs. Daigo matches (Winner’s Finals and Grand Finals), Maj?
Before it started, i was hoping Daigo would win because he was the underdog at that point. But going all the way up to final set, final match – we got to see the best of both worlds, and it’s cool that an American player finally won a major. Filipino Champ certainly earned it.
I’m happy with the tournament overall. It’s definitely one of the most memorable top 8 playoffs i’ve witnessed.
match 1 round 2 was bad ass. thats why i love watching akuma, especially a good one like tokido, momochi, or edma.
Oh wow, such matches are quite what I want to see in the morning to start my day!
