Caba has really come a long way ..to be able to push idom to this level..hats off to caba 🤯🔥💥🤯

[@malcolmjelani3588]

Caba sucks. I beat him before

That shimmy at the end by iDom was godlike. He conditioined Caba that whole game that he would do grab after doing a light attack and saved the shimmy at the end.

[@trinichinee6426]

not in this case .. capa defence was really exceptional... there was no conditioning considering the form he was in ... capa just picked the wrong option at that moment

One of the best grand final....That was Hype...Caba played so well

[@Fate862]

Agreed. He even made Idom sigh and put his head down on the tbale in relief that he won cuz that was a damn good set and it got to the final round. Love seeing my man Caba getting much stronger and getting to 2nd in SFV at Cobo Breaker against lots of great players. Love Caba and Idom, cool dudes.

[@malcolmjelani3588]

Lol

[@luceatlux7087]

i couldn't believe it when he kept coming back with the clutch victories. I was lol-ing and clapping watching here alone. Excellent show. I'm from US, but I was rooting for Caba. edit: I have to imagine that, even if you have no idea about video games, these finals are SO FUN to watch that they would appeal to anyone. There have just been tons of WOW moments through the years in the finals; lightning-in-a-bottle style plays.

I DARE YOU! I DARE YOU!!! FIND ME BETTER STREET FIGHTER!!!!!!!!

That Caba v Idom Grand Finals was the most exhilarating SF match, 2nd only maybe to Idom beating Punk CPT 2018.

[@piratesezarrr]

Thank you guys for the nonstop action! ChrisCCH's Luke was an electrifying performance, and the full GF battle was terribly tense the entire time 🤟

Caba has reached a new level

[@lile4life713]

Gf was so crazy I thought idom would pull out the Laura but he didn’t

Man, I haven't played or watched SFV for years. It feels like I'm watching SF4 with Cody and Poison on training in a top 8.

[@lukewood2662]

Shoutout to Caba, that was very close. He's still very annoying on the backseat of a Street Fighter League, but he's got skill on the game.

Wow!!!!!! That was the best of the best I’ve ever seen!!!

[@thegrimm54321]

Street Fighter V has gotten the shaft (rightly so, in some regards) this past generation, but that grand final was HYPE. The more pressure Caba was under, the more pressure he doled out.

[@MrMonsterKen]

It doesn't deserve the ugly reputation that it's getting, i'm sorry but it just doesn't, I already forgotten about the launch, but there are so much things that should continue to be celebrated, such as the godlike soundtrack, character roster, and the fan service. SFV is still fun to play then ever, as all hell.

[@juanbaez03]

Fue increible esa gran final, queria que ganara uno de los dominicanos, pero lo epica de esa final me deja a gusto!!

[@addictedplayer4453]

even caba getting 0x3, the match was very fun to watch. grats to mono, very nice play.

[@zeebay003]

SAME!!! i hate watching anything on twitch

[@rafaelcurbelo9282]

If caba didn't miss that flash kick he would have won Grand finals. This Grand finals was simply amazing.

[@Despond]

When I saw that flash miss I was: "Oh damn, that's going to be an epic punish". However you could take many moments that would have lost a round and it wouldn't have gone to a final round though. But yeah, a victory is a collection of mistakes and correct moves in the end, not just one moment.

[@emmanuelcolin1451]

2 hours for a sfv top8 !!!👍🏻. No capcom advertisings all around ! That’s great!!!

[@oscarturcios2323]

wow very intense one of best set ever caba idom my god my sfv still best of best

[@MrMonsterKen]

SF6 is gonna be so excellent, but I will always have a soft spot for SFV CE for years to come, keep these tournaments coming! SFV CE deserves a lot more than just a place in the Street Fighter Universe, despite the exclusivity bullshit.

[@kokayinewsome9308]

6 is gonna be insane. This Mean vs Chris fight with Luke and Balrog was like boxer vs. boxer. I don't know why Balrog wasn't announced for 6 right away to have their rivalry. I still say SF4 was greatest.

[@MrMonsterKen]

​@@kokayinewsome9308 SFIV has such ugly graphics, it makes me not wanna enjoy it even more, doesn't mean I won't pop it in every now and then and have a good time, but that was a strange start to a comeback of a series to be honest, but it was during an era where theres a massive cult that tries desparately to protect 2d visuals in fighting games and tries to throw 2.5d graphics under the bus viciously(which is silly as hell) because they are devoid of just, moving on or adaptation, because there are some people out there that can do great things with 2.5d. V already for years has a lot of good things going for it, such as the roster and music with its amazing remixes of famous character tunes, and the gameplay is still fun, I cannot bring myself to agree that IV is better than V in everything, never in a million years. But if you respect V for what it is but isn't your cup of tea, then god bless, I wouldn't hold it against you.

[@kokayinewsome9308]

@@MrMonsterKen i like 5 but I just thought 4 was better when it came to finisher options they gave you. Like the ones Akuma can do. And it was also a time when tons of characters could beast on each other. But 5 was still a great game too. The options you get with V triggers and reversals. I hope 6 has it all. Triggers, reversals, finisher options. But I doubt they do that. Might just come up with something total new.

[@MrMonsterKen]

@@kokayinewsome9308 If VI looks and plays fantastic as it does now, then V can be a great stepping stone to something even better, while being playable and worth researching about in it's own regard. I'm not taking anything away from IV's gameplay, its still good, I just cannot respect the way the game looks, its too wacky, even for Street Fighter, there was a lot of interesting things in V that make it cool to see and enjoy such as v-trigger tech and mind games, it still does a good job of being easy to get into, but a lot of depth if you dig deep into the characters and the hidden tech they have, and that it more interesting in of itself. I also wish the likes of Balrog and Urien can return to VI, because those hype fan-favorites is all the VI roster is missing. Balrog is the best in V CE with his first V-Trigger. I know for sure VI will have a ton of fun mechanics and combo routes.

[@kokayinewsome9308]

@@MrMonsterKen I guess 4 was kinda jarring compared to the art style of 2, 3 and other fighting games like GG Strive and KoF.
