Imori's AC vids
Still alive and kicking

I think he's trying to draw in his opponent rather engaging him head on, especially because he's using a heavy. A heavy will lose out against highly mobile opponents in an open field (Like in ALL AC4 maps), unless they're always kept in check, which is more evident in this vid:

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/rnpMJRUu7A8&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/rnpMJRUu7A8&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

Then again, all his vids feature backing at the distance, waiting for the right time to strike unless he can get a good bum rush beat on an opponent much like this vid:

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/SsUUZgMV-Us&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/SsUUZgMV-Us&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

They are all pretty much Imori tourney vids, he even has the mid with shoulder rockets much like some of his SL ACs back then. His aiming skills are still sharp and he can really hold a lock just as good as before. This vid reminds me somewhat of how he used to play AC back in the SL days:

<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/5aK2V4abEzY&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/5aK2V4abEzY&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

The swaying bit? AA's theme song isn't included in AC4's OST, so I think he was just doing that as some sort of taunt (In his other vids, he likes to QB in a circle pattern from a distance repeatedly, reminiscent of his SL dodging pattern) in order to force an opponent to do something prematurely. I guess, much to his surprise, it reminded him of AA's theme song Smile)

I plan on studying his Heavy fights and see if they're applicable to FA's physics when I start playing again. Then again, I'm sure he was playing in a lag-free environment where skills can be evenly put to the test.
