How Snake Eyez Won Evo With A Low Tier

from Commentator's Curse FGC Hosted by Commentator's Curse FGC

Snake Eyez entered his first fighting-game tournament in April 2010. Three months later, he won Evo. This is the story of one of the most improbable championship runs in fighting-game history. A 21-year-old online Zangief specialist with almost no offline tournament experience who walked into Evo 2010 and had to go through players like John Choi, Tokido, AfroLegends, and DGV to win Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix. But the run becomes even more unbelievable when you look at what happened at his first tournament, the matchups Zangief had to survive, and the player Snake Eyez couldn't take a single game from just three months earlier. This documentary looks back at the tournament that turned Darryl “Snake Eyez” Lewis into an Evo champion in only his second tournament ever.
