Punk is a monster. It is insane for someone so young to have so much mental composure. Amazing. People can hate but he's one of the best ever in SFV. Congratulations.

[@LuluGrande_]

the Karin meta is one of the most powerful meta, when Karin wasnt meta, he wasnt that good, is not a hate for Punk, is hate for Karin that dont deserve to be meta.

[@ChuinYih]

@@LuluGrande_ I think you dismissed punks ability of a player too quickly. When capcom gutted Karin, punk tried other characters, but none were as oppressive as his Karin, even with the hard nerfs. Punk is a god at playing footsies and converting into hit confirms, Karin just is the most rewarding character for his playstyle, regardless of her relative power.

[@GilbertTang]

I would love to see a Daigo-Punk Kimonomichi. First to 10, and watch as these two geniuses with such creative and brilliant buttons try to figure each other out. Punk has gotten to the point where his mental game and self-doubt are really in control. Daigo remains the Kurosawa of Street Fighter. It's like trying to explain to your friends who simply don't get it why such films are so powerful and visually stunning, and, similarly, why Daigo's buttons are gutsy, beautiful, and interesting to watch. It's why you hear "He did what!" so much in the commentary. His is a style that, win or lose, people still try to replicate with little success. This is what most of the Japanese players get about him that so few of us do. It's why they still revere him, even if his record isn't what it used to be. So awesome to see.

[@Provisorio89]

Incredible top 8!! Congratulations to all the players who made it to top 8, specially Daigo and Punk for this amazing grand finals. Daigo's aggressive Guile was so fun to watch, and Punk's recovery after losing to AngryBird's Zeku who he said he "had no clue what to do against" and also beating Haitani down to the last round last hit for both was spetacular! Many hype moments this weekend. Is it just me or every premier this years is just getting better than the last?

[@JustFrame21]

Season 4 has been absolutely Amazing to watch! My only gripe is that the Poster Boy Ryu has been at the bottom since Post-Season 1 which really makes me super salty that he's not considered strong enough to compete, and other characters like Alex, Ed, Claw etc got more love with their buffs as well. Outside of that, the only real glaring issue with S4 is that Rashid and Ibuki just make me want to throw up whenever I watch them play. However the Top-8s for all three SFV premieres have been absolutely Spectacular.

[@hicky0000]

I will never get tired of watching Punk play. He was so clutch when he absolutely had to be, what a sick top 8 run he had

Obviously most of watchers got tired of seeing Karin again and again and again. Is not Punk fault cuz he played Karin before was meta tough.

[@Aurkus23]

Daigo kinda fell to the wayside in SFV so a lot of people have been wanting him to reclaim his former glory. Also with how insane Punk has been playing it was easy to see Daigo as the underdog.

[@davidterrell1242]

@@LuluGrande_ Daigo is alot more popular than punk, no question there. Plus daigo really hasn't been as dominating in sf5 as he was in sf4. People really want to see daigo get a major win, punk has already been doing great this year and is #1 in the cpt rankings, daigo is the underdog here so that's even more support in his corner. And tho we see more karins now cause of the buffs, everyone know punk mained her since day 1 even through her nerfs so it's not like ppl are tired of punk's karin in paticular. Punk lost his last tourney when he used kolin instead and ppl was asking why he didn't use karin then.

[@Lovlee33161]

Ok. Let me be mr objective. Guys. This is 2019. I notice people in the FGC have a habit of putting on nostalgia glasses too much instead of embracing the future. Daigo will always be a legend and it was a tremendous showing from him today, but let’s embrace the current legend that is Punk the alpha. Don’t come with the excuses of “Karin” and all that cause this man punk has all the fundamentals down pact and doesn’t use yolo tactics. Despite the lack of a tremendous update, it’s undeniable that the cpt 2019 for SFV has been amazing so far. Let’s just enjoy.

Daigo is on and off, sometimes he gets hot and sometimes not. It's SFV. Tokido was dominate and now he didn't make it to top 8.

[@TouchdownTamagotchi]

Thats a stupid analysis seeing as thus is a entirely different game thats less defensive orentied, lack of combos, and lack of variety. There isnt a mulitude of ways to play characters in street fighter v . There's one established effective way based and thats that. It all comes down to how well you can hit confirm and execute set play. This is a different game this isnt no where near street fighter 4. Its night and day diffrent. Its not that daigo doesn't have it .Its more to the fact this is a diffrent game with different obstacles.

I still remember Japanese players use to say it's the other way around that Guile is difficult for Karin back in s2 when Karin was much stronger. Don't know since when has that changed.

[@blakenaftel3637]

@@work1907 Nothing has changed. Guile still wins this matchup. People are just overcompensating because Karin got a very mild buff recently, bringing her back to upper mid-tier. Not quite as strong as she used to be, but usable in tournaments again, which was probably the point. She still loses for the most part to the matchups that were always tough for her. It's clear Punk has been practicing, and it's probably not hard to find Guile players.

thats because Karin got buff and Guile got nerfed

[@aislanlima6307]
