Professors Umehara and Kuroda Perform Lab Work in the Research Institute of Ryu

Following on from the first translated video, showing BeasTV’s live meeting of the Research Institute of Ryu, Toshio Gurupon is back to bring English viewers part two of this instructional stream. Professor Emeritus of the Hadoken Daigo Umehara takes Chief Researcher Kuroda from the theoretical physics of throwing a fireball, to a live demonstration test in Street Fighter V.

Instead of just talking about the finer points of Ryu’s fireball, Daigo and Kuroda do some actual testing with the help of the Twitch chat. Whereas the first part of the stream was more humorous than informative, Daigo really shows his almost 20+ years of knowledge playing Ryu which makes it essential viewing for Ryu mains looking to learn more about the character. There will be a test at the end of the lecture, so take notes!

In a recent Tweet, Jebailey has announced that he is will be the head fighting game community tournament organizer and event planner for DreamHack in 2017.

With this, Jebailey will be involved in all the fighting game tournaments at all of DreamHack’s events next year. That said, he will still be focusing on CEO as well, and will actually miss DreamHack Summer 2017 due to scheduling conflicts with CEO 2017.

We here at Shoryuken wish Alex Jebailey and DreamHack the best success in this new relationship.
