I really don't understand the godlike status Diago has among fans of these things. Winning with Ryu/Ken is so unimpressive.
Let's see him do as well while using someone with more disadvantages than advantages.
I've never seen or heard of him playing as any character other than Ryu/Ken except Hakan, once. I remember reading that Diago tried Hakan after he was revealed and said Hakan sucked. I'm guessing because he isn't a Ryuesque character that has an answer for every situation and because he can't beat almost every move with one of his own like Ryu can.

I honestly think all of us are better players than Diago is. We specialize in characters like Cammy, Zangief, T.Hawk, Fei Long and others. We are really good with multiple characters that vary from each other in a big way while Diago sticks to Ryu and Ken, two near identicle beginner characters.
Ryu? It's like winning 1000's of SmackDown matches as Triple H or Cena. Of course you'll win picking the character with the least flaws and the most advantages. Winning Smackdown matches with Funaki or Street Fighter matches with Hakan or Gen. Now that would take skill.

A bad player can do well with a "good" character
A good player can do well with a "bad" character

Just my opinion.
