@requiem418 Capcom doesn't actually handle most of these Premiers themselves. This, for example, is run by JCG and KEIO, both Japanese companies that have ties with e-sports. If you look at the Japanese stream, they literally have 15-20 minutes of ads and other time wasting segments like interviewing the audience and random players. If you really pay attention, Japanese tournaments are the worst ran tournaments because they have so much extra stuff they want to put in and cause the English broadcast to fill up 10-15 minutes of dead air just because they don't know wtf the Japanese TOs are doing.

Ken's really good(Imo top 3-5) but not top 1. The reason why "100000000 Kens follow the same flowchart" is because there are ways in which characters are most efficiently played at the highest level. This applies to all characters. Of course, some players differentiate from others on the same character, but the same goes for Ken players. At Singapore premier, we saw more Akuma and Bison representation than we did Ken, and if you look at the legend rank chart for phase 5, Akuma, Bison, and Cammy had more legend ranked players.

Daigo ain't winning anything major no more. The sooner we Daigo fans accept that the better. Daigo is like Ryu right now. He has accepted his inner self or whatever and is passive now. No more hunger and is more so an ambassador to the game. I mean it's fine. He has done enough. Sometime a God gotta retired and lived life in his mountain.

Fastest timestamps on YT omg
Great effort! Thanks❤ for
the absolute madman
awesome
Merci 🎉
Man we are back to the good days boys. Offline baby!
Thank you guys, that was awesome 👍 💯 ❤ 🔥
Aside from the breaks! You can't argue w/so many unknown killers on display here! Even the women are fire here!
Tournament organizers really need to be better than this. 30 minute breaks after like 5 matches or so is just a bad viewing experience
💯
That's crazy considering there are 1200 participants.

Why would you watch this live? I haven't watched any of these live since the times of USFIV. VODs for the win.
Well I'm guessing there not doing bk to bk matches so your gonna have breaks
too much time between fights. if i watched live it wouldve been tough to watch after the 1st 2 long ass breaks
4:22:27 Never seen a little kid die on the inside like that so quickly lol
Zangief is pure AYDDS
I thought Nephew already had a place in the Capcom Cup?
This is correct. His 2nd at Singapore v Shuto got him there. Nephew was looking so good that day.
@@hipopigtan I think I heard elsewhere that he already signed up for this prior to qualifying so he decided to go
Lexx, Nephew, Shuto, and Itabashi Zangief are all qualified and they still entered this tournament
no Tokido?
Tokido attended, he is still in the tournament on the winners side.
Tweak Ken, ED, Rashid and Juri

not the one on here
Omg really? Does he have a lighter ?
he's alive in Losers Round 1

@yrh002b8 maybe he's enjoying life more..... Who knows..... Hell of a trooper anyways.... And his current results are actually not bad !
