Which game featured the famous Daigo–Justin Wong parry at EVO 2004?

Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike featured the famous Daigo–Justin Wong parry at EVO 2004.

During the Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike semifinal at Evolution Championship Series 2004, Japan’s Daigo Umehara used a sequence of precise parries against Justin Wong’s Chun-Li super art. Daigo then completed the comeback and won the round.

The moment became one of the most widely circulated clips in fighting-game history. It is commonly called “Evo Moment 37,” referring to the numbered position of the match in a tournament video compilation. The sequence demonstrates the game’s parry mechanic, which allows a player to negate an incoming attack with exact timing.

The clip is often mistakenly associated with Street Fighter II or Street Fighter IV. It occurred in 3rd Strike, the third main entry in the Street Fighter III series, at EVO 2004.
