He narrowly defeated seasoned Street Fighter veteran John Choi at Devastation 2009 (arguably the 2nd largest SF tournament event trailing only behind EVO). Given that John is fairly new to the SFIV series and hasn’t played the game any near as long as Justin has, it was quite a testament to his overall skill level.

Justin made a smart move in the finals, switching from his main character Rufus to Abel, knowing that John probably hasn’t learned the intricacies of all the SFIV characters yet. I’m predicting the story will be quite different in future as he gains more experience with the game.

Recaps of the entire tournament are available from recorded sessions by djWHEAT and the Live on Three crew. They did a fabulous job live streaming this event, and have set a standard that all should follow when covering future Street Fighter tournaments.
