With the event being over, we can enjoy the stream and check out the Combo Breaker 2024 SF6 results.
This sure was a pretty chaotic tournament. Some top players registered but then decided not to participate in the matches. One of biggest names at the event, iDom, fell to the loser’s bracket in Round 3 after a match vs. Ramsey. And then, he was eliminated by FlashMetroid in Top 24.
But players sure had fun with this new build. Even Akuma was spotted in the wild!
ElChakotay played Lily throughout the whole top 8 part. In the winners semi-final, he got a clear victory over Luke of ZachInABox. And then ElChakotay had to play against another Luke — of NoahTheProdigy in the winners final. That was a close fight, but ElChakotay won and proceeded to the grand final.
ElChakotay and NoahTheProdigy played again in the grand final. This time, the advantage of ElChakotay was obvious. He won two first games, and then, in game 4 sealed the deal.
ElChakotay is the Street Fighter 6 Combo Breaker 2024 champion. Congratulations!

A huge patch is coming to Street Fighter 6! It brings moveset changes for all the characters and introduces a new defensive mechanic.

If the update itself isn’t enough, then the game has a new character introduced with it. And not just any character — Akuma himself. It’s hard to imagine playing the Great Demon at a tournament of this level after just a couple of practice days. It’s even harder to imagine facing Akuma as an opponent at Combo Breaker. Akuma is a reason enough to watch the SF6 matches!
“Hundreds of opponents. All felled by his hand.”
