The first ever world finals for Street Fighter 6 has begun, and the competition has been intense during the opening weekend.
After the conclusion of the opening event, the character stats for the Last Chance Qualifier tournament at Capcom Cup X have been gathered. JP was the most popular pick among the upper bracket competitors, with 15 different mains, followed by Luke and Ken in second and third place. Chun-Li and Juri also had strong representation at the LCQ, but none of Juri’s five mains made it past 33rd place.
With over 321 players signed up for the tournament, the top 64 represents the best 20% of combatants, though there were several disqualifications. Every character was used at least once, except for E. Honda, who was totally absent. The top 16 picks were varied, with only three repeats.
Moving down to the finalists, JP was also the most picked main in the top 16 of the Capcom Cup LCQ, with nearly a third of the slots taken up by the villain at five. Only Ibushigin|Kakeru made it to the top 8, and there was only one repeat in the top 8, Rashid in the hands of Chat|JB and DFM|John Takeuchi.
The finalists made up the best 5% of players who signed up for the LCQ, and the full top 16 breakdown is available for those interested in the wild tournament kicking off Capcom Cup.
