dawg, i don’t even play SF, i play tekken. i don’t even like reality TV, really. but this elimination-based, reality TV format for fighting games, is entertaining as all hell
I feel like it's because there's no manufactured drama and unnecessary bullshit. For the most part, it's a tournament with challenges. I'm a fan of the format. Now let's watch as TH-cam tries to capitalize with some billion dollar bootleg.
Wanted to say to everyone who rooted for me, thank you so much! What an amazing opportunity! Thank you so much again to Justin Wong for such a great show! KEEP WATCHING EVERYONE!
This series has been very exciting to watch, especially when the elimination rounds have been tied 4-4 down to the final round in two episodes! I have a suggestion to make it easier for viewers to recognize the next NXTUP episode. Maybe you could update the title or thumbnail to indicate it's part of the series. For example, you usually put the episode title last, but it might be better to put it first. Something like "NXTUP EP5 | CAN PUNK BEAT..." would help differentiate it from other videos you post. This series reminds me of The Circle on Netflix. It would be really cool if the eliminated person could record a 30-second goodbye video for the other contestants, either to say thanks or stir up some drama as their last send-off. Looking forward to watching this episode and seeing who makes it to the top 3. Go Mothman!
Great episode, I love seeing Punk in here and Tasty Steve on the guest mic was fantastic. I swear, that was a really fast hour+. Can't wait for the finale!
Raichu wake-up grabbing multiple times in the same match made my day. I do the same thing and my brain recognizes it's a bad idea before I even press the button. Sometimes you just gotta treat the game like a casino table. Got us out here like Marvel thinking "What If..."
I love how they had a mini tournament in the middle of the show. I can't believe it took this long for them to get to this point all the ideas were so unpredictable.
I love your content, and I think you should do a casuals tournament so the winner can be trained to master rank a character of their choosing just a thought
Plat 1 is the most populated rank in the game for a reason. Everyone stalls there when win streak bonuses stop and it’s easy to get discouraged and quit. Seek out players who understand your main and are willing to constructively criticize your replays and/or play with you. If you don’t quit, you will get out of Plat 1.
Prediction before watching. Moth man and Triumph stay 100%, one of them are gonna be for elimination but they are both staying. I am cheering for Nate Banks he is my favorite I miss femshep tho :(. But I honestly don't know which one of the 3 will stay, if I had to bet I am betting on Nate Banks. Edit: SPOT ON!!!
Thanks for the like Justin, shout out from South Africa , always liked watching your old videos from way back, been a fan ever since. Great channel BTW
EP.4 was hidden from me on YT, I had to find it from you socials (was searching for it directly by name on your page and then on YT main search). Didn't know it had even dropped until I saw this was out.
Awesome video. I'm just a filthy casual, so I could never beat any of these players, but showing the difference between them and a true pro was eye opening and inspirational.
Punk's comments on no anti-airs from two of the guys (forgot thier names) iis so true. You can't be a top player and just let people jump in on you for free everytime. Thats crazy.
Dawg these are too good hopefully there is a Season 2 cause this is great and perchance would you consider making them live streams if noticed can understand but please more of these they're enjoyable to watch thanks Justin
I never use to like punk cause he used Karin lmao 🤣 but every since the beginning of six I’ve been appreciating his existence a lot more lmao 🤣 his play style is insane bro.
Damn, I didn't realize the Modern hate stretched out so hard to the pros. "Yeah, but he modern." oh punk. My people, they wish to stand with you, why are we seen as unclean?
i'm not just excited for MvC 2 , it's all these games X-Men COTA, X-Men vs Street Fighter, Punisher Beat em up .!!!!! I can play these all on Swtich anywhere I go!!!!

I'm the same. Lol.
Same here

The dude that took 5 throws in a row😂 man taking “just take the throw” to a whole new level
Punk's SF5 CFN was "take my throw" for a reason...
My dumbass would've took 6 throws lmao
Wanted to say to everyone who rooted for me, thank you so much! What an amazing opportunity!
Thank you so much again to Justin Wong for such a great show! KEEP WATCHING EVERYONE!
ggs you did well, and have great energy!
You had the most charisma! Your the type of player I like to watch and root for in tournaments.
You were really fun to watch and it seems like any of those matches could've gone your way. GGs
Congrats, dude! Looking forward to see you again
You’re my “people’s champion” Raichu
Shout out to Punk dropping knowledge along with his servings of humble pie for all of these challengers.

I second this. I didn't realize the episodes were up until a whole month past and started catching up yesterday.
😂 🤣 " he's not a god........HE'S A MAN !!!" bruh im crying 😂 15:39
Proud of everybody in this cast ❤
The Best M Marisa😎
This is one of the best youtube series I've ever seen, and now we get to see Punk go at the contestants! I'm hooked.
Punk is the Snoop Dogg of Fighting games.
YOU SAYING PUNK GOT THAT GOOD GAS?
@@KyyaJooncuz punk is smoking them🚬🚬
@@isaaclam2665 DAMN I KNEW THAT DUDE BEEN LOOKING HIGH LATELY, 😂
@@KyyaJoonhe definitely smokes lmao, i think there's a clip of him vaping with a bunch of other players in a room when he was at evo jp
Punk is a fighting game?
Great episode, I love seeing Punk in here and Tasty Steve on the guest mic was fantastic. I swear, that was a really fast hour+. Can't wait for the finale!

Man imma support this series to the point where you are able to do multiple games like Tekken MK and Gran Blue
any episode with Punk is awesome! hes so quick and methodical! such a perfectionist technician at his craft! what a joy to watch him work!😊
I love how they had a mini tournament in the middle of the show. I can't believe it took this long for them to get to this point all the ideas were so unpredictable.
Just like Capcom Cup, you know it's serious business when JP's theme hits.
no not again
"Alright, Zykels, this is it!" ...indeed it was 😂
I cry everytime. 🥲
@King-Raichu u can tell it was nerves bro u did well. I've competed in a few tourneys and it happens. Good stuff!
Next time you should invite Snake Eyez to challenge them lol.
you are cruel lmao
That would be dope as hell
I feel like Snake Eyez never does media appearances like this. Would be really cool though if he did.
any MOTHMANIACS in the comments??
Get this man off the show. PLS!!! 🗣️
Let’s go mothman!
You had my backing since that first episode elimination. Go all the way man.
That “Indrid Cold”
Lets go Mothman!
I really enjoyed this format of a series and I have been HOOKED on it since week 1. Best of luck to the final 3 and GGs to ALL of the participants!
Take the throw they said lol 😂 16:33 the disrespect lol 😂
First time tuning into this series. This shit is fire big ups my nyc brother
nate banks looks like his mind is racing and moth just looking blank
1:03:39 bro is absolutely unhinged. Fightin for his life out there.
Mothman being the mirror was the only one punk took seriously and it shows
Justin Wong this has been great game show I can't wait to see the finale from this episode I feel like it's going to take place at EVO or CEO😂
I love your content, and I think you should do a casuals tournament so the winner can be trained to master rank a character of their choosing just a thought
Genuinely sad this season is almost over, but ready to see mothman win it!
King Raichu needs to keep the pressure on he’s too cautious. He’s way stronger when he’s not so cautious.
Punk and Tasty Steve? Automatic goated episode
Loved King Raichu’s heart to take it to the final game final round. Respect!
I couldnt give up that easily. 😤✊
@@King-Raichu super cool that you are here to comment as well. Looking forward to more from you. It was fun rooting for you.
Def not the last you will hear of me! 😤
Thank you so much for the love and support
This video has all the makings of great video. It's got Justin, Punk. Tasty Steve, Great games! MAN this was so nice!
highly creative and engaging. Champions need WWE-style music montage intros
Damn- these matches were great!
Justin, this has been an AMAZING series. I wish it would have lasted a little longer.
Great fun!
Please keep this series going man, loving this
This is so cool! I hope we get to see another season of this event.
41:53, he was about to collapse mid stream, lmao.
Imagine finding out you get to play @punkdagod on TH-cam! Lmao😂
What an absolutely insane episode! Loved the TNS entry but this was even better.
This series is great, I can't seem to get out of plat 1. Watching how these guys play makes me appreciate the levels of this game
Plat 1 is the most populated rank in the game for a reason. Everyone stalls there when win streak bonuses stop and it’s easy to get discouraged and quit. Seek out players who understand your main and are willing to constructively criticize your replays and/or play with you. If you don’t quit, you will get out of Plat 1.
A drinking game where you take a shot every time Raichu whiffs a grab
Punk with the no look grabs had me dying laughing 🤣😅
EV trained raichu lmao, this series has been awesome! Keep this amazing content JWong!
you can love, you can hate....buy i need to admit punkdagod is strong player is SF scenario, deserve all respect
33:58 *REVENGE PERFECT KO*
Woah the last 2 episodes have been awesome. Intense matches going to the last round.
I dont know how I started watching this, but that punk guy is a character. Seems like a good dude
Punk was really nice to all the contenders, I liked it!
This looks like Season 1? Cammy doing her side switch combos.
It was all filmed during season 1, yeah.
Prediction before watching.
Moth man and Triumph stay 100%, one of them are gonna be for elimination but they are both staying. I am cheering for Nate Banks he is my favorite I miss femshep tho :(. But I honestly don't know which one of the 3 will stay, if I had to bet I am betting on Nate Banks.
Edit: SPOT ON!!!
Glad you miss me ha ha
Love this collaborative project.❤
Punk baked like a potatoe - I love it!
Hell yeah. Love this show.
Man Punk is really amazing. Thats what i can say,. To be a pro player like this is not for everyone
Thanks for the like Justin, shout out from South Africa , always liked watching your old videos from way back, been a fan ever since. Great channel BTW
i had 3 days to prepare luke, anti air DP was day 4 tech 🤓
1:07:30 lol “that was the street fighter 6 round” tough luck. Great games though
Excellent series, excellent video Justin.
Punk gave a lot of good feedback 👍🏾
Series has been great Justin. Well done.
woah you had these cats play a legend in the field! great show.
Hope this is better prize distribution than CCup 2024.
10,000 and a flight to any tournament in the US damn, thats when hell of a deal
3 events actually, stakes were high
some media outlet needs to pick this up
I love this series. Keep it up!

Punk is OD!!! I’m gonna apply to Nxt UP season 2 😂
Dawg these are too good hopefully there is a Season 2 cause this is great and perchance would you consider making them live streams if noticed can understand but please more of these they're enjoyable to watch thanks Justin
Would be really hard for it to be a live stream since we all filmed our individual parts remotely
28:47 *Should've Used Vulcan Blast to Chip Marisa out...* 😑
ngl i was waiting for episode 5 like the next season of wutang on hulu
The matches were so so good!! People come alive in the clutch!!
I never use to like punk cause he used Karin lmao 🤣 but every since the beginning of six I’ve been appreciating his existence a lot more lmao 🤣 his play style is insane bro.
Punk would make a really good coach for fighting games
Oh this series is lit 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
32:34 *3 PERFECTS?! MOTHMAN COOKING 🍳 RAICHU!!!!* 😲
Justin you did it again 🔥🔥🔥
Man can I get on here!!!?

Damn, I didn't realize the Modern hate stretched out so hard to the pros. "Yeah, but he modern." oh punk. My people, they wish to stand with you, why are we seen as unclean?

I’m no punk fan but the dude has skills
