    This was the biggest upset of the year, but I won't lie or take this away from the two by saying they played their ass off. I wanted Tokido to win and make history as being the first player to win EVO and Capcom Cup back to back but MenaRD proved how much he wanted it more. Please don't call him names and say things like "If this was USFIV Mena would've been blown up by Tokido." Whether that is true or not this is SFV not USFIV. Show the guy some respect as Tokido did. Congratulations MenaRD.

    Through out the year, MenaRD had multiple matches again both Punk and NuckleDu, either win or lose, those were very close matches, so I am not surprise with the result today. He really proved himself by beating Xian, Daigo (former EVO champs), Kazunoko (former Capcom champ), Itazan, Nemo who both have excellent performances today. Finally, he bested Tokido, who is considered the best Street Fighter 5 player at the moment. This is history, and well-deserved for MenaRD

    I was here live but even the replay gives me that hype! Tokido was my fave to win because he plays KOF just as myself but I'm latino so watching MenaRD win was just as AMAZING as watching Tokido win EVO! :D

  • @andrew6179
    @andrew6179 7 років тому +22

    Tokido disappointed me in the 3rd match. he was 2-0, a couple hits aways from winning it and he ex wakeups them damn uppercuts. He lost the game there. Really wanted my demon to be and stay nr 1 this year. If he‘d played more like he did against punk.. And if he‘d rely less on demon flips and that 50/50 set up (which mena studied and guess what wasn‘t cought once) he would‘ve scared the shit out of mena.
    Props to mena though, in the end winning this stacked tournament and take the finals from tokido in losers is really something.

      It's an alright risk to take considering he had 3 more games left if it didn't pay off. He certainly didn't expect Mena to get a read on him so quickly and get stomped.

      Du is an excellent player but you are talking about the most stacked tourney of the year, dude. To say anyone would have "easily" cracked top 8 is a bit of a stretch given the facts. This is all irrelevant, btw, because Du was also MIA. Its pointless to continue arguing woulda couldas.

    In SF5 Akuma's air attacks are stoppable with light punches, which is what MenaRD did against Tokido.
    I am wondering whether E. Ryu will be more powerful than Akuma in this game given that his attacks are more of ground based.
