TAITO Reveals Brackets for Capcom Pro Tour Premier Event Ultra Hyakkishu Cup

Today, TAITO conducted the bracket drawing for its upcoming Ultra Street Fighter official tournament and Capcom Pro Tour premier event Ultra Hyakkishu Cup. Set for Saturday, October 17, at Tokyo Big Sight, this event will feature cash prizes, with first place taking home one million yen (~$8275 USD).

As you would expect from a Japanese national event with a Capcom Cup spot on the line, this 128-player bracket is packed with top players. While you might notice a few missing names (the Mad Catz team of Daigo Umehara, Tokido, and Mago, for example), you’ll see your Momochis, your Nemos, your Bonchans, and many more strong players in the listing. A few international players will also be participating, namely Razer’s Xian, Poongko, and Dawgtanian.

Below is the full listing of the 128-player bracket. Look forward to this killer event when it goes down next month!
