But the few willing to educate themselves, practice and commit to a craft, will put themselves in a stratosphere only an elite few will reach. Now THAT goes for video games AND life!! 'Moment 37' may look like God given talent, but few stop to consider the countless hours dude must have spent in practice mode preparing, just incase this scenario ever came up m

Fun fact, there's a manga/comic about Daigo. You can find it if you google around a bit, there's even a partial english fan translation (that hasn't updated in a lonnnnng time, but still) as well as an official english release coming out in december.

Man, I just subscribed yesterday and was looking for a story about Daigo.

Daigo is a true legend. And you editit Evo Moment 37 so well i got goosebump. even if i saw it allready 100 times. Good Job

I meet Daigo at CEO Daytona 2018 and he's an awesome guy! I walked up to him with my phone out and he immediately took a pic with me even though i didn't ask him yet. I root for him every time he's on stage.

This channel is amazing, so underrated, keep up the good work!

Moment 37 still gives me chills

Still gives me goosebumps whenever that Evo moment comes on

Thank you theScore esports for this awesome documentary and for highlighting the fighting game community!

I have seen moment 37 so many times and it blows my mind everytime

That defence against chun li combo make me blown away. I never saw something like that.. daigo deserve the beast tittle

These videos are my favorite thing on the internet right now. Please give me more.

This mans been my idol ever since I found out about moment 37. He's not only a legend to me but also my motivation to not quit fighting games. He's touched my heart and honestly I almost got teary eyed watching this. Daigo I hope you realize everything you've done for our beloved fgc. You will live on forever in our hearts.

No trophy matters when you pulled something like moment 37. Daigo will forever be remembered over any tournament winners.

that parry though :O

Every time I see this clip I get tears in my eyes, it's just so beautiful and the best life lesson

I still remember seeing the video of him play Wong at EVO back in 04. friend of mine was obsessed with SF3 and had to show it to me. still amazing 13 years later

The Michael Jordan of Fighting Tournaments games. Some might bash my comment, but, I just learned who Daigo is. For personal reasons, I was out of the gamer scene for 12 years, 2 years ago, I got on my feet. Since I can't afford an actual arcade machine, nor a few Physical CD games, I opted on emulating some of my favorite SF games on android via MAME4roid and aFBA emulators (using touch screen buttons until I got an OTG cable to connect my PS3 controller) In 2017, I finally got my first taste of the SFIII series, with 2nd impact being (imo) the best in the series. Then, as I searched for info on the SFIII series, I stumbled upon this EVO moment and I get goosebumps every time I watch this insane parry by Daigo. A true inspiration to get better at SFIII 3rd Strike.

Fantastic video! Thoroughly enjoy all of it. Keep up the good work

Donate $60,000 man he really a legend

excellent story in the life and times of the BEAST tremendous come back to form leaving you believing that anything is possible, in a word remarkable.

I wish I can get 50% of his patience and passion on doing this, no matter in the tournament or his daily routine that made up what he is now. Seriously, how many can stay as calm as he is during the tournament. The mental strength will lead any profession to the next level!

"If you keep choosing the path that looks safe ultimately that becomes a dead end" absolutely love how mentally improved overseas players are compared to u.s players.. thats what will make them always the best theres so mentally developed its fucking insane

Even till today,I still get goosebumps when Everytime I rewatch the full parry Daigo did against Justin!

evo moment 37 never gets old!

This is maaad inspirational 💕💕💕

Very motivating, much respect to Daigo!

Your short documentaries are always well done.

This guy is a legend.

daigo is an icon we deserve! a true fighter. thank you Daigo

I fell in love with fighting games because of daigo.. I fell in love with Moba game because of dendi and faker ... They don't always win everything , but growing up with no parents around they were my heroes ... (Sorry for bad English , just wanna comment how I feel ) 😊😊 I love these guys 😊

great production, the narrative is on point.

Moment 37 made and inspired people into fighting games to à level not many people comprehend. The guy literally revived a struggling scene and did so much for fighting game reputation in general.

“But if you keep choosing the path that looks safe, ultimately it becomes a dead end” well said

lesson we can learn from daigo is you may have been the best but more important thing is to stay relevant if you truly have passion on what you're doing

EVO MOMENT 37 ALWAYS GIVES ME GOOSEBUMPS

LEGENDARY DAIGO! 2019! Still feeling that parry.

thank you for this video it is hard to find some of those old fights :)

This was a good watch

Been waiting for one of these about a FGC player.

Chills every time.

Daigo is easily one of, if not my number one biggest inspirations.

he's the guy that got me playing fighting games. and watching succeed and even fail at time has truly been what kept me here. to someday be worthy of playing him or having his title passed on to me when he finally retires. i have to say i'm a long way from that but every lose and every victory has shaped me. i'm not there yet and i might never get there to be honest but it's a risk that i am ready to take. okay enough on that. you guys should make a video like this on SonicFox the NRS fighting game community is grown and it's about time some of the legend from other Sub- communities in th FGC get .... recorded

Though Evo during the early days, not so many Japanese players come to US tournaments. Mago to me is a disappointment because during Daigo's prime, he was one of few who could beat Daigo with his Emperor Sagat during Gods Garden. Fuudo was able to beat Daigo in France with his own Ryu. There is still more to come. There was a statement that Punk leveled a lot of players up. Currently the best Street Fighter team is Echo Fox.

Damn daigo is almost 40!!! N still going!!!! Goat

I KNEW IT! no wonder his play style is so familiar to me, so he actually started from Fatal Fury before Street Fighter II, so that explains his versatility when it comes to button inputs and also where does his unwavering patience comes from in every match he had WOW! Let me say this one more time; Daigo Umehara, you will always be my motivation to keep improving myself so that i can defeat myself for you are the real life Ryu of FGC who always seek ways to become stronger and better, But one of my biggest dream is that someday, I'll get a chance to fight you and i don't care if i lose, i just want to have the experience of facing in any match as memory that i can treasure forever and tell everyone that, "I WAS ABLE TO FULFILL A DREAM! A DREAM THAT I THOUGHT WAS IMPOSSIBLE! BUT I DID!".

We love Daigo. Every thing has its champion.

and he is very humble as well. what a guy!!!

Good stuff bro 👌

currently watching this video because my dad said gaming isn't the same anymore. then he explained why arcade fighting games revolutionized the gaming world and told me about the legend daigo. recently have been learning how to play sf4 and appreciate the old street fighters while my dad forces me to use a arcade stick. I couldn't have found any better way to gain such respect to street fighter players since im realizing how hard it is to actually play on a top tier. (yes my father did show and explain evo 37 and now I play SF every night because of it)

about fucking time we get some Daigo's story here

Dope mini doc.

Living legend, I love to watch him play, still remember the perfect Ken parry in SFIII EVO 37. . . . . He was using Ryu in SFIV but now in SFV he changed to Guile hmmm

My cousin used to call me Daigo, as in clowning my name, Diego, i always got pissed when he did it, but if he calls me that again ill just give him a “hell yeah”
