The Capcom Pro Tour's Global Leaderboard Unveils Capcom Cup 12 Qualifiers
The highly anticipated Capcom Cup 12 is fast approaching, and the global leaderboard rankings have been finalized, determining the top Street Fighter 6 competitors worldwide. These elite players will automatically qualify for the prestigious tournament, marking a significant milestone in their careers.
With the Kuaishou FightClub Championship 6 concluding the Capcom Pro Tour 2025, the battle for the Capcom Cup 12 qualifiers has intensified. The tournament's outcome has set the stage for an exciting showdown, as the top contenders vie for their spot in the finals.
The Return of the Capcom Pro Tour Global Leaderboard
The Capcom Pro Tour's global leaderboard had been absent from the circuit for several years before its resurgence this season. This strategic move aimed to motivate competitors to strive for excellence in tournaments, climbing the leaderboard ranks. The top six competitors on this leaderboard secure their spot in the Capcom Cup 12, making the final Premier event, the Kuashou FightClub Championship 6, a high-stakes affair.
The Top 8 performers in this tournament played a pivotal role, with Victor 'Punk' Woodley's fifth-place finish earning him 600 Points, propelling him to the top spot. This significant development shook the leaderboard, displacing Samuel 'EndingWalker' Arm from the coveted top six position.
It's important to note that top players can also qualify for the Capcom Cup 12 through alternative methods, including the upcoming World Warrior events. The following competitors have qualified for the Capcom Cup 12 based solely on their points:
- Punk - 600
- Momochi - 570
- Kobayan - 510
- Ryukichi - 490
- Dual Kevin - 470
- Itabashi Zangief - 440
These players will join a formidable lineup of qualified contenders, including Amjad 'AngryBird' Alshalabi, who takes over Kakeru 'Kakeru' Watanabe's spot after the veteran's retirement from professional play. The competition is further intensified by the presence of Saul 'MenaRD' Mena and Zeng 'Xiaohai' Zhuojun.
The Capcom Cup 12 is set to take place from March 11th to the 15th, but a potential twist awaits. Capcom's new and controversial pay-per-view system may restrict access to the final battles, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the tournament.
As the excitement builds, the Capcom Cup 12 promises to be a spectacle, with the world's best Street Fighter 6 players battling for supremacy. Will the leaderboard rankings hold the key to victory, or will other factors prove more decisive? The stage is set for an epic showdown, and the gaming community eagerly awaits the outcome.
