Might be the most digestible fighting game intro video ever.

[emilcaven]

Impressivet, beyond excellent, narrated straight to the point, packed with useful information in a small amount of time. Information that takes a long time to learn by playing yourself or a modest amount of time even by watching others. But with your informative style everyone can learn fast. I see potential for huge growth here, keep going and don't stop, you will certainly succeed. You sir have my respect

[shanestone]

Andor! I would like to thank you for your guides and your words of encouragement. I am now able to do all the super combos, and I feel I have you to thank for giving me a basic understanding of the imputs. I just can’t thank you enough.

[juanman]

These are great introductions to the game, no doubt super great content.

[rafaelfigfigueiredo]

This is excellent, you telling me the combos while also adding details on text while gameplay showcases your teaching is awesome. Subbed

[lazerstarr]

Great content! Please make those for all SSF2T Fighters!

[jacobvalenzuela]

Thank you! Been waiting for a guide like this for years 😅

[Spider-Complexion]

Your videos are fueling my interest into SF recently and I’m loving all the old arcade games and SFV. Thanks for the vids

[AyaneOfDeath]

The answer lies

In the heart of Battle!

[shazanali]

Wow I couldn't of explained it better, well done bro

[TheOmenVi]

Thanks, I learned how to play as Ken using your tutorial

[hectors]

great video with out too much talking, and a lot of useful info

[The_Pariah]

Things 15 year old me could've used back in the day.
(I was still the best at fighting games amongst my friends hehe)

[LightningCayo]

This was nicely done. I didn’t know Street Fighter 2 still had a big scene until recently, nice work. Will you do stuff like this for SFV and SF6?

[shanestone]

Do you think you can make a video of Akuma for Street Fighter II, including how to do the Shun Goku Satsu?

[blive]

Great vid bro are you ever going to do another how the pros play for mvc2?

[iggytse]

I never could figure out how to do the fireball consistently. I’ve had to watch this in slow motion to finally figure it out. The instructions on the arcade machine are terrible.

[soyunindo]

I agree with most what you said. But I think you downplayed Ryu's red fireball (since you mentioned LK hurricane as good knockdown). Ryu has great getoutjail move with the red FB.
