Clickbaits with T&A work. One day I uploaded on my channel the thumbnail of a specific pornstar (there was actually a little backstory for such inclusion). That video is now one of my most viewed videos... accidental clickbait lol.
The very first time I saw the video, I was impressed by how the two players "danced left and right on the screen" aka FOOTSIES, not just the parry. And the crowd made this video memorable. Even if you're not familiar with what's happening on the screen, the crowd's hype will "drag you" into...

You can't normally parry Chun's SA2 after the super flash comes out, you have to input forward BEFORE it happens. If you go re-watch the original video you can see Daigo literally mimicking every single move that...
1 minuscule tip for video editing: viewers don't need to see you go through the menu options to enable the Move Details, you can cut that part and make the video look smoother, here's an example I made: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3c_lClZtS2w
