SNAKE EYEZ MAGIC at Capcom Cup X

Snake Eyez showed some interesting Zangief techniques at Capcom Cup X. Let's deep dive in on how he did that!

When Snake Eyez is on, it feels like he's the best Street Fighter player in the world. Comp is lucky Gief isn't top 5.

[AngelusNielson]

And that's why he's a pro. Thanks for the breakdown, I'd have never realized how high level this play was otherwise.

Randomly the coolest sync ever at 1:23

[SujakuuClips]

Snake Eyez is on another level. I love watching him play Gief.

[alkhamistic]

Snake Eyez is the only player that gives me that excitement I used to get watching Daigo back in third strike, st and sf4. The guy just knows how to put on a show and make it entertaining to watch

[DarkMachino]

When you said he jump to escape the throw, it felt like a plot twist, huge reveal to me

[RobTheMechanik]

I use jump cancel a lot since I learned of it. Most opponents can’t believe what happened. This is a superb analysis and demonstration.

I like the way you synced Deejay's Hey Hey Hey with the music at 1:23

[Swichmech]

One of the best to ever do it, humble yet unshakeable. He is easily in my top 10 players in FGC history

BrianF explained this tech in SFV.
Stormkubo won against Daigo in SFL like this, with Abigail vs Guile, and his ex cmd grab was stronger than Gief ex SPD

The transition at 0:27 is so well done! From the capcom cup stage with the fancy costumes to the training lab with the default outfits, synced with the music transition on Zangief's theme! As if we are about to scientifically breakdown a real scenario, which is indeed what takes place. Superb job.

I was recommended this video on a YT whim, but you've shown in 2 min that you definitely deserve that subscription. Your editing and transitions are on a different level with the blending!

[natman]

always hear people talking about "secret tech" that pros save for tournaments and try not to let anyone know until they have to but this may be the first concrete example of that I've seen.

[alexandersze]

Fking Dragon Eyez indeed. The dedication to BECOME the grappler he knows all about Gief

[afrikasmith]

Snake Eyes pulling off advanced moves like an anime protagonist who is almost at Gary Sue level.

[setoace]

Man that's crazy! I watched this match and I was like "WAIT WHAT? SPD has DP invincibility?"
SnakeEyez probably has more hidden tech that he's not gonna reveal.

[WYZEGUISE]

Who ever edited this did an amazing job. I caught the timing on that jackknife at 1:23 is so crispy.

[changdean]

I think I recall seeing chat telling Daigo about this tech, and Daigo said this is so DAMN hard that he cannot do it consistently in real match. Kudos to Snake Eyez, what a legend.

Anime level breakdown without the 12 episode filler, very nice 👌

[pockystyx]

Snake Eyez was a joy to watch; here's hoping he continues to compete and show us more crazy Geef tech.
