    When I think of comebacks, I think of Justin Wong. Never give up
  • So much respect for someone whose passion for fighting games has been burning for decades….

    Justin is one of the many reasons why I'm so passionate about fighting games. He's had so many comebacks and clutch pulls he's really built on another level. Loving the new content from this channel.
  • Man I was so lucky to have been there at Evo 2014 to watch Justin win. The energy was something different. I think the craziest thing about marvel 3 is there has never been a repeat Evo champ and it's cool to have seen Justin 's win in person.

    14:51 I fucking knew it! I remember vividly Chris repeatedly utterly demolishing Justin during the year in multiple tournaments. I always cheered for Justin, I even asked myself why don't just start with Storm, she's clearly the best match against Morrigan. Imagine my surprise watching the Evo final when I realized all those defeats during the season were part of the plan! 4D Chess at its finest. What a great fucking moment, thanks Justin.

    1:17 Shoutouts to Viscant indeed! He was one of the most approachable and likeable people from the entire FGC!

    i love how impactful and important that these moments were to Justin. take a look at how he articulates and accurately describes these exact moments. I mean yes, I’m sure he’s watched the VODs many times and even had broken them down to his stream viewers, but still, to remember and be able to describe in such detail tells a lot. 💪🏾🔥
  • @xeakpress2718
    I'm glad we're doing things like this. Documenting the strategies and the tales of the FGC so they aren't lost to time I can remember these moments vividly, and I'm glad others can see this story too
  • Justin Wong is one of the biggest reasons why I play fighting game he will forever be my GOAT
  • @koreyg8552
    Justin will always be the goat. Believe he has more overall wins and top finishes than anyone
  • It's so crazy to watch him being such a humble dad, content creator You don't realize the villanous, 9 time EVO Champion monster he is
  • @kevinshih6714
    justin, always a fond memory of mine when we teamed up for NEC one year with KOyang. Didn't understand it back then, but your mentality is sage. Keep up the great work bro!
  • @kidfazer
    Watching Justin come back in 2014 to win Evo was one of the best times I ever had cheering for someone. I was so excited for Justin. Still feel so much joy any time I think about him winning that year.
