Capcom Cup: Tournament rundown and results

The Capcom Cup is Street Fighter V's biggest tournament.
The Capcom Cup is Street Fighter V's biggest tournament.

The Capcom Cup is the season-ending tournament where the best Street Fighter V players from around the world compete to see who will be crowned champion. Among those who qualified are the regional champions from North America (Punk), Asia/Oceania (Tokido), Latin America (Didimokof) and Europe (Problem X).

Traditionally, the previous Capcom Cup winner would get an invite, but NuckleDu could not attend due to personal matters. So, the runner-up, Ricki Ortiz took his spot and everyone who scored less points than NuckleDu would bump up a seed in the tournament, making Ricki Ortiz #31. The final entrant was decided by a Last Chance Qualifier tournament on Friday.

Alienware's Nemo qualified to be #32 and face the #1 seed Punk in the first round. All matches are Best of 5. The winner of the tournament becomes the first entrant to Capcom Cup 2018 and walked away with $120,000.
