being the most successful western player at capcup X and your reward being your region getting deleted and having to play in one of the most stacked regions instead is a certified capcom moment
@@sbgbg8092 Sayff. He had the best result in CAPCUP X and was a different region in Canada but Capcom unified it with the US East region so now Sayff has a lot more competition.
These videos are some of my favorites on the channel. I don't have a lot of time to watch events right now, and these videos are a great way to keep up on all the player stories.
34:31 damn it’s so fitting that idom was able to secure his spot in capcom cup using Manon and him doing it over Kami made it even sweeter. Brian kept the receipts lol
@Brian_F : you can browse from one tab to an other using ctrl+Tab , so you would not have to leave fullscreen video, go and click (with the potential click on the closing tab button). Just saying :)
As someone who does not have the time to watch all tournaments, I stopped fast forwarding through the VODs trying to get the full picture because Brian F will just come up with a waaay better summary. Please keep doing this, I love it.
These videos are GOATED! It's 5:30am, I'm up working on my comic before work, and listening to fgc stuff in the background helps me keep up the grind. Greatly appreciated.
I was really pulling for Idom. Ive been using Manon since Season 1 and Idom's commitment is great to see. Doesnt matter the tier, it all comes down to the player
100%. I think he's also in a much healthier headspace this season, because season 1 it was just him complaining nonstop about drive rush instead of focusing on what he can control. I don't disagree, but at some point you gotta deal with the cards you're dealt. He chose to stay with Manon, he has to work harder. Happy for him getting more success this year
@leemooreStudio it's just like when Xian won SSF4 with Gen. Nobody considered Gen a tournament winning character, but Xian made him work. I've seen some really good Sim's online. He can definitely be a problem
@bryanthulbert7450 He could be a problem I agree. But Not against Punk, Idom or any of these top American FGC tourney players. Crimson gets wrecked every time against them. It's sad.
I don't have time to watch the events but this is by far the highlight of my week when this drops. Hearing the background of the participants is so good. Best tournament recaps right here.
It's very strange that I've realized only after watching this particular video that I appreciate that I can rely on getting a very-digestible breakdown of the SF6 tournament scene from Brian_F every time. It sunk in at the end that, with Idom qualifying, he completes the return of the "Four Heavenly Kings" from CPT 2023. What a story for CPT and for the individual players from the super region!
Manon has been my main since day one and still is my main. I was attracted to her ballet style which is unique in all of fighting games, I think, ever made.
@@liv3vil-Kei okay and every girl in in every fighting game ever does gymnastics. manon encapsulates an elegance rarely seen in the genre. Not saying she's the only elegant\graceful fighter, but shes surely top of the aesthetic tier list, and incredibly memorable. You can tell her design hit the mark because people on the internet argue to this day as to whether she's hideous (an awful opinion to hold, but i digress) or uniquely beautiful, a trait shared by many supermodels.
@@liv3vil-Kei Actually Lili's moves, while called ballet+gymnast, have little real world basis. Namco devs just wanted to make a superhumanly-acrobatic rich girl.
@@ShaneButler-x9m You waifu simps are so wild you literally gaslight other fellas into believing people arguing whether something is hideous or attractive means it's attractive, lmao, please stop watching corn and chill
I dont usually comment but man im so happy for idom I personally hate mannon with a passion prob my least favorite character in the game or at least up there with akuma but Im honestly rooting for idom to go all the way and win capcom cup his storyline is just too good the doubters the spite drove this man and its time to prove them all wrong
Watching iDom play Laura is what brought me back to SF. To me she's one of the most unique SF characters ever. Her moves were killer and looked so cool. It really blows that they'll probably never bring her to SF6. I mean c'mon, if a character wins Capcom Cup, they should become a main character in every new release!
You're the best american or maybe person covering this game and genre. The podcast idea is great. Since it's zoom, and street fighter players don't always have a lot to say- my humble suggestion is to casually play an old sf game while interviewing.
Excluding the prize split, and the absence of coverage from Capcom, all I can say is, at least this year's format is better than last year. Thanks for keeping us up to date because no way I could keep track of all this on my own. SF6 is hype.
I think Manon is a cool char, but she really needs some buffs. Capcom knows she will be the next fgc drama that's why they don't do it. The fgc already cries so much because of the medals, I NEED MORE TEARS CAPCOM JUST BUFF HER ALREADY HAHA!
First off, Brian, amazing work as always this coverage is a true jewel for SF fans and I appreciate all the hard work that goes into these videos. Brilliant. Second, F$%k the haters, the doubters and the tierlist pencil pushers, IDom's rise in SF6 is better than anything Hollywood has produced since 2018. An amazing story, a true beautiful moment in competitive gaming and inspiration to stay on the stick. You love to see it.
Manon was my first main in this game and for any fighting game lol since sf 6 was first fighting game I ended up switching to guile but I shes still usually my second choice when I don't pick guile , I always thought she was very underrated since she never seemed bad to me at least that bad I really thought her only main flaw was how her strengths neutral footsies gameplay and her throws kind of contradict each other as she like space but also has to get close for throws but after watching higher lvl players use her it might not be as much of a problem as I thought but I do still wish her moves that can pull in enemies was a bit better not counting the anti air.
I have been watching Brine for years and I can fully honestly say that I can watch dude narrate paint dry with a smile on my face!! I LOVE SF for the record (obviously) ;)
Thanks for this. It would be nice if more people kept the community updated with results and narratives that get lost in the sauce as the months progress.
Agreed. As many complaints there are about the new CPT format, there’s no denying that it creates growth opportunity, not just for new players, but fgc personalities as well. For those of us who are too busy to watch everything live, we’re going to be relying more on commentators like Brian to bring us the highlights so we’re up to date when Capcom Cup rolls around. If I were a small Street Fighter channel, I’d be trying to capitalize on this.
28:10 - If I had to guess, Booce overthought about if he had enough time to actually get the stun or if he was going to recover from Burnout in time and like... did half of each option. Such a weird timing situation.
Another fantastic retelling of events, the story of Idom in SF6 is fascinating, I been a very vocal one saying he should play another character as his Manon, didn't see to make the cut, but the man is loyal to his waifus and absolutely earned his way in to Capcom Cup, hope he perform well, maybe even become the second man to become a Capcom Cup 2 times champ along with Mena......man hope the grand finals this year in the Cup not be another bs unknown who wins to retire (sorry Uma), I want a STORY, hope we get Punk vs Idom part 2, or Idom vs Mena to see who became 3 times or 2 times tie Capcom cup champ or damn or Tokido vs Punk or anything on those waters, I want an exciting end to this year cup pleaseee.
Picked up Street Fighter 6 about a week ago and strongly gravitated to Manon, I knew she wasn't winning much when I picked her seeing someone perform well right after I picked her up is quite satisfying
The fact that Idom beat Kami to claim to spot after Kami's horrendous takes on SF6 just makes this all the sweeter, as well. i just wish the pop off could have been in person.
I think at 21:00 idom went for the target combo to force Booce into burnout because if he blocked both hits it would force burnout and make the target combo safe,Booce just read it and did DI
Actually I think Brian is correct. If opponent DI's on wakeup to Manon's meaty HP, she still can counter-DI. Idom pressed HP+HK too early and it resulted in the TC. The TC wouldn't have done enough drive chip to burn Ken out, leaving Manon -8 on block.
Should have more world warriors for Japan, 2 for all those quality players makes no sense and it’s good to see different players competing against the staple US players
i love these videos so much but it drives me nuts that you just click the next tab instead of closing them when you're done. seeing all those tabs open instills a deep despair in my heart and not being able to see them slowly dwindle genuinely hurts my soul way more than it realistically should be able to
If i mess up the recording I have to redo the whole thing. I don't close the tabs until the video is edited thumbnail made and published comments don't point out any issues.
It was me guys, I told him it couldn't be done

I love your tabs Brian and the fact that you will open tabs of just players' pictures as well for us lmfao. That Booce pic got me laughing
I swear you get better and better at these tournament breakdowns every time, Brian!
Idom's Manon is a treat to watch. Just hoping it is enough against the army of akuma bison and ed in capcom cup.
If one of those 3 don't win the downplay will get insane
I think Manon has a p dece MU vs Bison.
Don't forget Ken
Agreed. Now why doesn't Idom have a second character like he did in SFV? Is no one close enough to Poison?
@@sparetot he ran jp for a bit but got bored lmao

She'll get a buff by the games in when the game is about to die in 5 years. That way the backlash to her being that good won't matter.

Dude that's nuts, i started with Guile and picked up Manon as a secondary because i thought she was cool, she IS very cool
Idom has a lot of talent he is the ONLY manon player I’ve seen that can place in a tournament.
He qualifies with a “low tier character”.
I have been watching Brine for years and I can fully honestly say that I can watch dude narrate paint dry with a smile on my face!! I LOVE SF for the record (obviously) ;)

"i couldnt have said it better myself' hah! True
