Parries are very easy on SFIII; that's why I got toned down in CvS 2, I remember I could stop some shin shoryukens and other things easily; and some national class players could parry all day without sweat it...
Everyone can parry like that, in training mode........
To do that in a match is different.
Oh, wait; I see that my post is being taken the wrong way, but I haven't eating in all day so that's OK; most likely I didn't write what I was thinking... Of course the player had mad skills and guts to get the parries in such tigh spot; but parries are not THAT imposible to do; me and my pals used to play a 'no defense game' and used only parries (that was mainly because the db and df of the machine where imposible to reach, so you either parry or eat the damage).... We got to a so so level where we could parry many SCs 'almost' at will, but I was the weak animal of the group mind you XD
The whole point is -> the guy is good; way on top the usual player, but that's not impossible to do, if you put your mind to it and dedicate to learn the tempo of the moves and the fixed chains good things can be achieved.
Now that I think about it, we always agree on every game on playing with that 'no block' stupid thing ;P
Worship.... Him....

Indeed, the parry alone isn't what's impressive (there's a hilarious euro 3S vid where a guy in the air parries ALL of: an akuma air FB xx super air fireball, land, super fireball (such that both super fireballs are parried at once), followed up with something like a HK during a serious match...), it's the fact that he pulled it off in that kind of a pressure situation AND had a brutal combo to follow it up with... the whole thing looks virtuoso (and for pulling it off in a match, it is), but I'm sure that it's a set play that he's practiced. That whole thing isn't something that you can just pull out of your rear.
Random technical note: for those of you that didn't notice, the j.RH daigo uses in the combo involves jumping TOWARDS Wong's chun, and then using a down parry so that he drops straight down.

Anyway, Justin Wong should have respected Daigo a lot more by not just throwing out a super out of the blue like that.
Well, apparently the same thing happened in the match against Raoh. The thing is, in that fight, Justin threw out an EX FB right before the super. Raoh tried parrying the whole thing, but the EX FB messed him up, and he died. Wong should have done the same thing against Daigo, but according to Viscant, Wong says he simply forgot to do it. I can believe it, given the pressure he was under at that moment. Though it's possible that he subconsciously didn't think he needed it. He probably thought that Daigo wouldn't have parried the entire thing and killed him for it.
Also, I'd like to point out that anyone who thinks along the lines of Daigo "punishing" Wong or was setting him up or toying with him yadda yadda is absolute rubbish. Daigo, in fact, nearly got his ass eliminated thanks to Wong's frustratingly boring but very effective turtling style. It's just at the very end, Daigo probably realised that Wong would have tried to kill him with chip damage (after all, he did it to Raoh), so he was fishing for the parry. Wong made a mistake, not by doing the super, but by not throwing out the EX FB before hand. Not to take anything way from Daigo, but he got lucky that Wong gave him the opportunity to do that. Daigo, being the beast that he is, took that minute opening and killed him for it.
In retrospect, Wong should have turtled some more, but oh well. Hindsight is 20/20 and all that.
