MCZ|Daigo Umehara (Yun) vs Poongko (Seth)
Daigo — one of Japan’s most accomplishedStreet Fighterveterans — got destroyed by Korean player Poongko. It hurt to see a legend fall, but damn if Poongko didn’t make a show of it.
Mike Ross vs. DR Ray
A heated final match between two establishedMvC3competitors ends with one of the biggest surprises of the show. After an impressive comeback by Dr Ray, he makes an serious mistake, ending in literal player suicide.
Commy vs. D3athWish
Even a sleepy, early-morning pool game like this one can impress at Evo. This is why players love Phoenix. This is also why players hate Dark Phoenix.
