    That level 3 not punishing due to being in burnout did it, Punk mentally checked out after that. All credit to Problem though, dude adapted and played his ass off after their previous match.

      If you watch Problem X reaction even he thinks he was punished by the level 3, he looks away for a moment and when he hears the block sound the first thing the does is grab, he was not prepared to punish the blocked level 3.

He basically defined how SFV was played so he certainly does have enough prodigious skill to at least win a major tournament. But whenever he gets to GF, it ALWAYS false apart. Remember his matches with Xiaohi? He beat Xiaohi up until the finals and then he completely lost all his edge.

I'm very sad to not see Punk in Capcom Cup since overall he deserved to be there. But, I'm glad Problem X will be in it. I don't think he deserved it as much this year, but he's still one of the best players on Earth and it would be weird to not see him in it. Also, what is up with Blanka being so good in SF6?

    get that counterpick cheese the fuck out of here. That was desparation, he had no answer for that Blanka. For all the years he used Bison, he had zero reversal. I'm sure it feels nice for him to have a character that actually has one.
    Problem X, fantastic player.
    16:45 this interaction shows Punk's lack of confidence in high pressure situations where he's been historically bad. One guy lacks it, the other doesn't. Problem didn't even care, he walked up and whiffed punished him at a severe disadvantage in burnout. You're down 2 games and you do that combo? That's not alpha, you don't leave all those resources on the table down that badly. Show some confidence. Too scared with the potential burnout and Problem living from it, he did not want to risk spending it all and playing more neutral with him. He kills him if he gets level 3, but he didn't even want to see if that would even happen.
    That's always been the difference, every single time Punk has lost in big moments. He plays too safe and scared. His confidence absolutely falls off a cliff.
    Pure domination here, great ground game shown by Problem X here beating Punk at his own game, and then some. 29 min video, I thought this was gonna be close, and it wasn't even. He out footsied him and ultimately played confidently, much to the opposite of Punk in every single big moment in legacy forming tournaments. The whiff punishes here were insane by Problem. He smelled the blood in the water and took him out to the woodshed.
