He's been labbing up SFV since it came out. He has a site called GoziLine that gives tips.

Man... the road for any of Kazu, Daigo, Nemo, and Eita is extremely difficult. Win or lose you are up against an extremely dangerous opponent.

Wow who did Kuroda use? Nice to see him playing.

He's using Ryu. He was parrying fireballs at the right distance (which was only developed in the meta since evo), but I think Daigo overwhelmed him in other areas. Daigo has a better grasp of SFV right now.

OMG, Daigo finally beat Haitani. FINALLY.
Daigo has definitely stepped up his game lately. He beat Kazu who was sort of a demon for him, destroyed Nemo who is an amazing player, and now took out one of his demons. It's still a really hard road ahead though but for the first time I feel confident that he can win it now instead of just hoping.

He needs to win for the cpt points or else he can kiss capcom cup goodbye. I just don't see him winning any premiers anytime soon.

Daigo can always just farm points in Latin America, Europe, and NA. Just look at his results before this event. He's 3/4 for top 8 at premier events, got 3rd at that round robin tournament defeating Infil, and got 3rd place at the last Japanese ranking event.
The evidence suggests he'll be a heavy favorite should he attend ranking events elsewhere. The players that need to start worrying are Bonchan, Snake Eyez, Gamerbee, etc... because the results don't really hint at them being able to get a lot of points even if they go to weaker events.

He realized he can't win staying grounded and just started jumping a lot more lol. But it was working but it was too late. I think he has a good chance if he can get the runback though.

My god that Daigo vs GO1 match. The 4th match nearly ended me. And then Daigo lets GO1 off the hook again with a Yukadon-esque choke by not punishing Chun's whiffed super. Before he even screwed that up I was thinking "Fuck the jump in, just do solar plexus, cr. HP, HP DP, Super. That's good enough man".

Daigo's fooling around too much lol.

Karin players are obsessed with having Super aren't they? They refuse to use the meter to anti air. I think Daigo is jumping a lot partially to try and get Mago to burn meter but he won't do it.

Mago used meter for anti air alot.

Stayed up to watch the whole thing only to watch Daigo fall short 
He did better against Mago in the rematch but Mago made some good adjustments to take those games after being down 0-2. I guess it's on to ECT for Daigo now.

Fuckkkkkk
Good result though. Getting 64 points in Japan is really difficult. Other tournaments won't be as hard. Just has to keep going to those ranking events.

SFV meta is starting to take its form. :3

Just realized this now but Daigo is now qualified for the Asia regional finals. Mago already qualified from another tournament earlier this year so Daigo gets the spot because of that. So that's some good news for him despite not winning the event.
Justin Wong is saying on Twitter he might do himself out of top 16 because he needs to be at work monday morning.

I'm so pleased that Will2Pac's Laura beat Julio's Ken.
That many wild DPs should not be rewarded.
Meanwhile in Costa Rica, Will2Pac Laura and Justin Wong Karin are fighting in grand finals...
