I've played Tomo countless times here in southern california, I was just talking with a coworker who mentioned his name who also played with him. Basically orange county/ los angeles area, tourneys, etc. Reserved quiet guy. Back then dude look like he weight 100 pounds, but damn was he good. I could only best him maybe 1 out of 7 or 8 matches. He picked me apart!

In response to acidglow, who says that this looks like any other ryu, look again. Through all the rust, total lack of big damage combos, and almost no cross ups, ryu shows consistently excellent distance and zoning. I think only once in the whole vid is guile able to trade his sonic boom with a hadouken and follow with an attack (low forward). If ryu is too close when he throws hadouken, guile can deflect with sonic boom and connect with fierce backhand.

@pb879

Prime Tomo would beat muteki, but Tomo doesn't play ST. And never did. He retired before that game came out. During this battle is was mostly Jeff Shaffer playing Ryu. Tomo's Guile was way better than his Ryu. But I've seen Tomo's reactions with Ryu that was superhuman. The dream match would be Tomo Guile's vs Kokata Shoten Guile, but then again Tomo never played ST and hated the super moves. So they would have to be both in their prime playing hyper fighting in order to see the dream match. If you guys could have only seen Tomo's Guile and the crazy combos he was doing with him that wasn't even thought possible. All of us from that time are all old farts that can't this game like we used to. Look at these matches. They are weak compared they used to be played during that era. The young versions of our self's would laugh at how bad we have gotten. You gotta remember during this time Tomo quit 20+ years when this video happened same with Jeff. Jeff however played a little long and destroyed prime daigo badly in 2004 at ST AE

A strategic thing I noticed: ryu never counters guile's jumping forward with a dragon punch. Is this deliberate?
@TheMixedPlateFrequency

It depends on the distance and timing. They only dragon punch if they know 100% that the enemy jump in range is close enough. Cause if Guile throws that forward early, dragon punch can whiff or if guile safe jumps dragon punch can whiff. Much safer to throw a different anti air that has longer range or just let them land.

@@TheMixedPlateFrequency you're quite misinformed, the japanese had absolutely HUGE national tournaments for sf2 and an arcade magazine called GAMEST would organise these from as early as 1992. GAMEST magazine became Arcadia magazine, and GAMEST Cup was rebranded to the Arcadia Cup, which was rebranded to Super Battle Opera, or SBO for short. the early GAMEST tournaments held qualifiers up and down the country and would have literally thousands of applications. SSF2 was a huge flop globally, it certainly wasn't the start of japan's competitive scene. i really don't know know where you got that from. anyways, if you wanna watch really high level cps1 gameplay you could check out channels like Hulk Hands. The players on there put tomo, mike watson, jeff schaeffer, et all, in the shade

You got to be completely ignorant. While Tomo Ohira was on his prime, you were swimming in your teenage dad's nutsack. Here is where you fail to fucking understand: There was limited to no internet that gave tips for this game like you see, now. For the very little resourse that was provided in the early 1990s, Tomo held his own and on his prime. Imagine only having to rely on magazines such as Gamepro as sources of info about special moves and tips. Yea... Tomo was the king of his time.
