First footage of Umehara actually learning SFxTekken

A video of "charismatic pro gamer" (in the video description) Daigo Umehara learning how to play Street Fighter X Tekken for the first time is posted by Capcom. This's just the first episode, there'll be 4 total. They say that Umehara will get to fight Tokido eventually.



Summary
- Capcom's Ayano (SFxTekken assistant producer) taught him.
- He tried Tutorial Mode.
- He learnt about Guard Cancel.
- He learnt about Assist Gems and Boost Gems.
- He was told that a Gem such as Auto Throw Cancel helps players who aren't good at it.
- He learnt that high level Gems are harder to use due to their activation conditions.
- He learnt that you can sense what Gem will be activated by reading opponent's behaviors.
- Ayano tried to recommend Attack Power boost, but Umehara was interested in Speed Gems. And he said Zangief with speed should be good.
