The Age-Old Rivalry Between Ryu and Chun-Li Continues in This First-to-Seven Set Between Daigo Umehara and Nuki

Both character loyalists across multiple games, Daigo Umehara’s Ryu and OR|Nuki’s Chun-Li have clashed once again, in this first-to-seven online set. As is the case with online sets between notable players, XusesGB has cataloged this battle which goes all the way to game 13, in traditional Nuki vs. Daigo fashion.

Xuses has previously uploaded a first to 10 between the two Street Fighter stalwarts back in May, which went to game 19 and their last offline set at EGX 2016 went to game 5, after Daigo quickly went up two games. It seems that whenever these two veterans clash, it is bound to be a nail-biter. As long as Chun-Li and Ryu are in Street Fighter, I think these two players will be destined to have close games with each other.

The UK Comes Together to Fight for Supremacy at Rival Scenes 2016 from November 5th-6th

Usually relegated to a side event at majors and nationals, team tournaments rarely get their own dedicated events. However, the UK seems to buck this trend, with Rival Scenes 2016 promising a weekend of teams action across multiple fighting games. Hosted by Sunday Face Off, this tournament will have teams from all around the country assembling to prove themselves and crush enemy regions. Expect groups like Birmingham’s Electronic Dojo and Manchester Battle Arena to be making an appearance, alongside several other teams from all parts of the British Isles.

The event will be held at DoubleTree, located next to the Hilton in Leeds City Centre and registration is now available over on the dedicated smash.gg page. The venue fee is £15, with it costing £5 to enter each tournament game. Saturday will see teams facing off in Killer Instinct 2v2s, Guilty Gear Xrd -REVELATOR- 3v3s and The King of Fighters XIV 3v3s, with Sunday being dedicated to purely Street Fighter with Street Fighter V 5v5s, 3rd Strike 3v3s and Super Street Fighter II Turbo 3v3s. There will also be a 2v2 mystery tournament running across both days and will be strictly first-come first-serve, so get there quick on the page if you wish to sign up. If you can’t attend this tournament, all the action will be streamed over on the Sunday Face Off Twitch channel.
