Firstly i'm not sure a video game can be considered a sport, secondly in some cultures a handshake isn't considered appropriate this can also be a personal choice and in many actual sports people may not wish to shake hands it occurs all the time in football and boxing. Though you may be right and he could be arrogant just thought i'd present a view point
Evo 2009 Daigo was SF4 champion, Evo 2010 Daigo was SSF4 champion, EVO2011 SFAE Daigo finished 4th, EVO 2012 SFAE Daigo finished 6th, EVO 2013 SFAE Daigo Top 8??? Difficult to predict, Even when Infiltration beat him, he looked stunned and very excited knowing beating Daigo is not easy as it seems. Will be interesting to see Daigo performance in EVO 2013...
That is incorrect. He still plays Yun a lot.. just usually he does not use him in tournaments recently. But that might as well change at evo.. I have that feeling that he will occasionally pick Yun.
Well, i wouldn't judge a person's behavior through videos of tournaments of fighting games, but all the times i've seen he speaking he was quite humble, and i always saw him being polite on those same videos. Different for example than justin wong, who already showed on quite a numer of ocasions that he can be quite arrogant, so really... I don't understand your point. A single gesture does not define one's character, that is defined by their whole behavior.
Here you accuse him of not shaking his competitor's hand. But didn't the competitors not wanting to shake Daigo's hand too? I'm pretty damn sure if they have put their hands out, Daigo would shake it. I've never encounter a video where someone initiated a handshake but he refused to shake the person's hand. He came to Singapore in SEA Majors and shook everybody's hand that he played with (with them initiating the handshake). It's either you hate the Japanese or your brain is just too small...
Daigo just couldn't give a shit that last round. Walk forward, hit you, walk forward, hit you again, 'ouch that dp hurt' and what's his solution? Walk forward and hit confirm into DP. GG Hsien.
I think he meant to say that, lol. But actually Yang was in fact really difficult to fight before the patch.. in my opinion he was worse than Yun for Ryu.
I've just seen it several times and it does irritate me. While I'm sure he's a great guy, his playstyle and mannerisms (don't you goddamn weebs go accusing me of racism because I don't like his playstyle) are just rather frustrating and painful for me to watch, and I don't hate the guy, I just hate the player, if that makes any sense. Probably won't to the Wapanese who are yelling at me.
Im Here just because of Excellent Adventures
lol same

Yeah i agree yang was a nightmare for ryu pre-patch, but he did say i like how Daigo handled that, which is Yun in this case

Daigo got the moves agian, hope he'll win the Evo 2012!
you can see that daigo respects hsien a lot... at the start daigo was the one that initiated the handshake...
Man, something about Daigo, I could just never hate him lol.
Laugh ; Valle ; John Choi ; Jyobin ; Solid are some ryu players that are better than Air, or on par with him.
I like how Daigo handled that. Yang was so difficult to fight before the patch.

Daigo is my favorite to win EVO 2012, I just feel he will redeem himself after Poongko embarrassing him last year at EVO 2011.
It depends on both connections, yours and the others players ones.
He finished 4th in EVO 2011. 1st Fuudo, 2nd latif, 3rd Latif
Yeah, which is fair. I don't hate the man, I hate the player. I'm sure he's actually a really stand-up guy outside of fighters.

Ryu has apparently mastered the throwing aspect of his Shotokan technique..... XD
daigo is so cool, but yun is a really fun character to watch.
Yeah i totally agree with you in that!. Mainly Blanka and T.Hawk, they are a pain -.-
Daigo just couldn't give a shit that last round. Walk forward, hit you, walk forward, hit you again, 'ouch that dp hurt' and what's his solution? Walk forward and hit confirm into DP. GG Hsien.
Daigo (The Beast) Umehara!!!!
don't forget Dan... his taunt is completely OP
"Hsian's looking really slippery right now."
Am I crazy or did I just see Daigo smile at the beginning?
He finally found out kitties are what warms the soul and mind.
Anyone have any idea what move Hsien Chang did at the end that got beat by Daigo's meaty?
I think he mashed a DP but the command throw came out in stead.
I think he meant to say that, lol. But actually Yang was in fact really difficult to fight before the patch.. in my opinion he was worse than Yun for Ryu.
why yes thank you
I can't get enough of Daigo o_o
5 throws in a row. wow
初っ端から梅ちゃんスゲーーー！
Beast!!
Oh the joys of youtube comments.
you can tell when daigo is out for blood........ or pissed
EVO 2012 SSF4AE Daigo finished 5th
Chang: My name is Hsien Chang! I beat Justin Wong!
Daigo: . . . that's adorable! (beats the crap out of him)
I want to play online.. but i dk why it is so lagging.. even though my connection is 100% ..!!
wait! isnt Daigo play as YUN ? ah *epic fail*
wow... daigo wants to shake the other guy's hand. So nice!
WHAT IN THE FLIPPING FUCK IS A WEEABOO?!
hsein is a great player

Hey, weeb, you missed this fight about two montsh ago. Go find another one to feel classy in.

mmm yus
Yun you mean lol.
no daigo always plays ryu
My reasoning was fucking fine. I dislike the player, but not the person.
Maybe the goddamn weeaboo shouldn't have taken the bait, hmm?
Yep, you're racist when you refer that person in school as 'mexican' instead of a 'student'. And you're being off-topic bro.
THIS IS A BAD QUALITY FOR 2012 OMG
clean your biased your eyes man.
Zangief and t.hawk players too! LOL! . C'mon Ryu users are easier to beat.
lol
wow lol... fanboy much?
