Taking place at the Novo Theatre in Los Angeles, the Capcom Cup<\/a> sees the top 32 Street Fighter<\/a> players compete for a top prize of $250,000.  <\/p>\n

US player iDom, who was entering the tournament for the first time, managed to overcome the odds in the final against Victor “Punk” Woodley<\/a> – the top ranked player on the official leaderboards who scored the highest total points in Capcom Pro Tour history.  <\/p>\n

It was a dramatic final too. Punk was relentless starting out; choosing to play as Cammy against iDom’s Laura and aggressively taking a 2-0 lead relatively easily.  <\/p>\n

By the third set, iDom had adapted his play to Punk’s Cammy and won his first game of the match. Punk switched to Karin in a bid to seal the deal, although it didn’t quite go his way – with iDom preventing Punk’s combos to take the second game.  <\/p>\n
