I liked how casually the PR guy dropped #RiseUp into his closing speech before introducing Ono. It was pretty natural.Don't be foolish
Spooky can't set us free
So we must #RiseUp

Capcom Cup 2015 (Dec 6th at PSX) | Concluding the SF4 Era With A $250,000 Tournament
- Thread starter pixelish

He represents everything that is wrong with sf4. Props to kaz recognizing the cheapness in him tho.
Daigo saw it when he played him for a bit, but he wanted to fight fair. So he picked a more balanced character.
That battle was between who can focus cancel into damage more effectively. Fitting for SF4's end
Full focus from half screen too strong

And he went 0-2! Crazy how I feel every SF4 tournament comes down to who draws who in the brackets.

I was hoping for a Yun mirror. Daigo did play Yun right?

Kazunoko is a monster and deserved his win. A long time consistent player who I just really enjoy watching. Also, one of the few players in this tournament with nothing in front of their name.
Valmaster doesn't count.

So what's the deal with the party at Foundry?
good enough to be top 4 evo when yun was broken

LMAO, Daigo dropped his ass when he got nerfed from his god status when AE 2012 patch was released. Kaz was the only one who stuck with him so mad props to him.
Nah, Daigo just wanted to pick a top tier as well. He's only picked stromg characters in every game he's played for nearly two dcades.
Daigo winning

Even though I haven't played SF4 seriously since KOF13 came out, I gotta say I'm a little sad to see it go as a main game. Sure I hated playing the damn thing, but it defined an entire generation of fgs. Capcom Cup was an amazing send off, and this had to have been the most SFIV I've watched in a single day since vanilla. Excellent matches all around.
Bring on SFV

The ceremony and ending were a bit lame indeed
Well earned win for Kazunoko. He was the bigger beast
Still. Nice to see Misse get to fifth place with Makoto
I can hope she appears in SF5 eventually but it will probably take a long time before we see Makoto in SF5 though .. if at all.
Lets hope SF5 in general will be good

Didn't even notice that at first.
Pretty much this

I'm great. Seahawks won and Daigo losses.
I took my losses pretty hard. Still though, the high level of play from all the players is just too amazing to watch. I'm still in awe at every decision making from each of them.

Do we have a list of the winners for tonight?

Daigo had the air attacks almost spot on. If he used Ryu with the double hit air, would Daigo be able to counter better after the hits? Meaning if he connected the double hit to a fireball or uppercut?
Eryu has that as well

Shocked he didn't use that instead of the jab

Jump jab starts up faster and has more active frames. It's a safer choice in this air to air situations. Plus Evil Ryu's jump mp just isn't as good a other juggle attacks in this game like Seth's. You often don't get both hits or pop them up the way you want to unless your opponent is in a certain range and height compared to you.

Well, I found out Fword + Logan are outstanding at commentary. Oh, my days!

well hopefully sf5 daigo picks ryu
I'm hoping he uses one of Urien, Guile, or Ryu. I really want to see his Guile again.
Disappointed and surprised at the prize money for next year's pro tour. You would think they would put more money into their new game over the game that was 7 years old. Hopefully there is some crowdfunding.
Wonder if Sony did a multi-year sponsorship and it was all assigned years ago.

Poongko looked physically sick and was playing really sloppy most of his top 8 run. Pressure must have got to him.
He looked unbeatable when he played Momochi.

Some would argue that it's bigger than Evo, but that's mostly because of the prize value.
Capcom Cup is like the March Madness of Street Fighter. During the year players earn the right to be in Capcom Cup by doing well in other tournaments (EVO, CEO, etc.)

its new (started in 2013 iirc) so it doesnt have the prestige that evo does. still its the first time the developer have actively put money into the scene in a big way so its def up there with evo as most important tournament of the year for sf players. way more money involved.
