He took a roundabout route, but Hajime Tokido Taniguchi managed to win Community Effort Orlando 2016 on Sunday, defeating Razers Lee Infiltration Seon-woo. Cheap Giants Jerseys China .With a Shinku Hadoken into a low kick on a nearly flawless Ryu in front of thousands of screaming fans, Tokido toppled arguably the best Street Fighter V player in the world in Infiltration.After a loss to Infiltration in the winners bracket, Tokido managed to turn things around in the losers. He defeated the likes of Red Bull and Twitch legend Daigo The Beast Umehara, YouDeal Majestic Athletics Tatsuya Haitani Haitani and Evil Geniuses Yusuke Momochi Momochi.?After four tournaments in which he was only inches away from a title, Tokido had won an international competition and a Capcom Cup bid in the process.Im very fine and very happy, he told ESPN. Finally, I win a premier tournament.Tokido is one of the best Ryu players in the game but he had always fallen short of victory in the final moments of crucial matches. CEO was different for him, he said.I reset the bracket, he said. This was my tournament, I think. So yes, at first I didnt understand what Infiltration thought but honestly, I could read his mind.The element of outsmarting and outplaying your opponent is something that the team at Capcom has actively sought to develop in the newest version of Street Fighter, Capcom community manager Peter ComboFiend Rosas told ESPN in an interview.Tokidos play this weekend personified this aspect of the game. He says he came prepared to face Infiltration and his character Nash. He focused specifically on that matchup beforehand, he said, and it certainly paid off.One particular moment in Tokidos matches against Infiltration was a highlight of the whole tournament. In the second round of the first match in the grand finals, Tokido seamlessly parried Infiltrations wake-up super, something both extremely rare and difficult to accomplish. Doing so allowed Tokido to stun Infiltration and then finish him with a combination of basic attacks and a hurricane kick.The crowd lit up as thousands shouted in shock. Even Infiltration smiled and gave Tokido a thumbs-up.Actually, I wanted to use parry because parry is very strong, Tokido said. I used it with the correct timing, and the parry makes people get hyped. You know everytime someone uses parry? Thats why I want to use it. Its strong and people get hyped.The changes from Ultra Street Fighter IV to Street Fighter V have favored Tokidos play style, earning him greater success in competitions for the new title. In IV, he played Akuma, a heavily aggressive character. Now in V, the game itself caters to the more aggressive player.In Street Fighter IV, I used Akuma and Akuma is a very aggressive character, he said. So in Street Fighter V, attacking is very strong so this game is very aggressive. Because I played Akuma, Ive come into Street Fighter V as if its a game meant for me. So far I enjoy Street Fighter V.This aggressive style paid off for him at CEO, where roughly 900 were competing. His next goal is the Evolution Championship Series -- the worlds largest Street Fighter V tournament to date -- boasting over 4000 contenders thus far with registration still taking new entrants.Evo, like this tournament, is a very, very big tournament, Tokido said. But Evo is bigger. So many people, Im very excited. Its gonna be a very difficult tournament, but I hope that maybe I have a good chance, or the best chance. I need to prepare.When I ask about the future and the Capcom Cup, Tokido said his focus, for now, is solely Evo. Now that hes taken the CEO victory, hell be confident going into the event in three weeks. This might be his shot to cement his name at the top, something hes hesitant about currently.Im one of the best, but I dont think I am the best, so far, he said. I want to be the best. I want to be able to say, I am the best. But not yet, I have to keep practicing.To become the best, hell need to practice and prepare. And when asked for any final thoughts, he reaffirmed this path to victory: I will keep on training and practicing to be the best.

Ryan Riess emerged with the title after a session in which he started behind, but used expert skill to gather the chips to his side amid the unpredictability of no-limit Texas Hold em. Riess put his final opponent Jay Farber all-in with an Ace-King.The Blue Jays showed some definite signs of life over the weekend, taking two out of three over Boston to cap a tough seven game road trip against the Bosox and Tampa Bay. However, six weeks into the season, the Jays still find themselves third from the bottom in the American League at 15-24 and with the 27th best record in the Majors. There is still time for a complete turnaround and a run to the playoffs. Consider that Oakland was 37-42 on July 1 and 13 games out in the West and still edged out Texas to win the AL West in the final series of the regular season. Still, I wondered how this current edition of the Blue Jays compared to the 2006 Jays. That was John Gibbons best season at the helm and in his first stint with the team. They finished the year at 87-75 - second in the East, a game up on Boston and 10 back of the Division winning Yankees. It was the Blue Jays first time finishing above third in the Division since their last World Series victory in 1993, and their second most victories to the 88 recorded by Tim Johnsons crew in 1998. Grant you, were still relatively early in the 2013 campaign but some basic numbers really stick out. The 06 team hit a collective .284 while the 13 team at this point is batting .237. The on base percentage was .348 in 2006 vs .301 now and the OPS was .811 then and .708 now. The two teams ability to hit homeruns are relatively equal, and by the end of this season the 2013 squad could very well hit more than the 199 - the 06 squad did. The 2006 Blue Jays had five regulars who hit over .300, in Lyle Overbay (1B), Frank Catalanotto (LF), Vernon Wells (CF), Alex Rios(RF) and Shea Hillenbrand (DH) and one more off the bench in utility outfielder Reed Johnson. The 2013 Jays only have one hitter over .300 in Jose Reyes and hes likely out until the All-Star break. He is their second best hitter at least in terms of average at the moment. Rajai Davis, .284, is also out with an oblique strain. The 2006 team also got incredible production from two of the key positions - catcher and centre field - and the two corner infield positions. Overbay hit 22 homers and drove in 92. At third, Troy Glaus blasted 38 homeruns and drove in 104 runs. Vernon Wells batted .303 with 32 homers and 106 runs batted in, and catching combination of Benji Molina and Gregg Zahn hit 31 homers and drove in 97 runs. Interesting that Glaus was the only one on the team to strike out over 100 times at 134. If you look at the 2013 edition, seven players are on pace to break the century mark in Ks, includiing Melky Cabrera, Jose Bautista, Edwin Encarnacion Colby Rasmus, J. Andrew McCutchen Jersey. P Arencibia, Emilio Bonifacio and Brett Lawrie. Rajai Davis would be part of that club too, if he was a regular and was healthy. On paper, at least, if everyone was healthy (theres that word again), the 2013 Jays would probably have the better pitching staff. Yes, the 2006 squad had Roy Halladay and his 16-5 record, but he was the only one on that staff that included lefty Ted Lilly and A.J Burnett to pitch over 200 innings. Closer B.J Ryan had his best season with the Jays in 2006 saving 38 games, but this years Jays have Casey Janssen who already has 10 saves and a 0.69 ERA. If the current system had been in place, the 2006 Blue Jays would not have made the postseason. In fact, they would have finished fourth behind the team that got it. Detroit finished second in the Central that year with 95 victories – eight more than the Blue Jays. The White Sox missed the playoffs with 90 wins and so did the Angels with 89. In todays world, the White Sox would have been in as the second wild card and the Angels would have missed by a game. Jays pitching coach Pete Walker and hitting coach Chad Mottola were both active players on that 2006 team and Casey Janssen made 19 starts for that squad. The fact the 2006 team won 87 games and still didnt come close to the wild card speaks volumes about how well the Blue Jays are going to have to play over the final four and a half months just to get close to the postseason. The Cleveland Indians are the hottest team in the majors right now. Yes, Terry Franconas Cleveland Indians. Theyve won 12 of their last 14 and pulled into a first place tie in the Central with Detroit. Theyre hitting .305 over that span with 24 homeruns. The Indians also lead the majors in homers with 49 - three more than the Blue Jays. The Blue Jays kick off Interleague play on Tuesday night with a quickie two-game home stand against the World Series Champs, the San Francisco Giants. Over the years the Blue Jays have not done well in these games against the National League which came into play in 1997. The Jays are 132-151 over 16 seasons. Only Baltimore, KC and Houston have a worse winning percentage amongst American League clubs and remember; the Astros only came into the American League just this year. The Yankees have the best Interleague mark all-time at 170-112. St. Louis is tops of the National League clubs at 125-110. The American League has won the series the last nine years running. ' ' '
