Lmao Yipes and Logansama's faces when the pizza guy got on his knee to eat his slice is classic 23:59, but eating a slice in between them both like that is wild 🤣
Kudo is just a better player it seems like. Not to discredit Punk in the slightest, he is still rubbing elbows with the best of em, but Kudo's Chun was just too much for him i guess.
I’m a big fan of punk and was rooting for him too come back through losers finals. But good lord kudo made that Nigga look like a bot. Pink got washed badly and I believe he was talking mad shit about kudo. Boy ran off the stage. And then idom showing the very clear gap in his skill level compared too everyone else’s. Even watching the topanga series, I don’t think I’ve seen execution that perfect
After kudo took the lead and forced punk to try to counter pick into Karen, I knew it was a wrap. Punk really get rattled way too easily and gives up. The counter pick was so unnecessary.

The fact that idom gets so much hate for using poison is annoying, like bruh your telling me no one knows who idoms gonna use for tournaments? See the Japanese know what the opposition will bring to the table so they strategize to have the best possible outcome. If you get caught lacking and lose to mans poison then you were either lazy and didn’t do your homework or you just know its easy to say “well i lost cause he used high tier characters”. Just lab some shii, punk knew the necalli was the answer but his pride made him try the ken one more time than he should, the switch gave him the ultimate advantage in the MU but it was too late cause laura was idoms ace in the hole. Like bruh is smart to have two characters that achieve two things hes good at playing with, in your face pressure and zoned pressure with high damage. Commend this man cause hes the only one doing his homework, everyone else stay lacking as if they aint gonna run into this guy lmao they aint playing to entertain, they playing to win!
Mena did something great by stopping that Chun li she was world class.. Now my boy idom again proves my he is one of the best in the world S class playing well done I always support him well sf6 let see what happen in that chapter God first. 🙏😊
His legacy in SF5 got tainted this year. You can tell he wants to win but knows he spread himself to thin between his channel/react content, entering multiple games and looking ahead to SF6. I don't think he even goes down as top 3 SF5 players after all is said and done.
I don't understand how a man that can play every character in SFV consistently loses to Idom all the time. Punk doesn't seem to handle high pressure situations well. I notice he cracks under pressure. He needs to see a therapist or take a meditation course like Tokido did to help him relax.
@@newcar4141 Not sure what tournaments you watched in the past 3 years but LMAO @ Punk "usually" washing iDom; that hasn't been the case since 2019. From that point they have been back and forth from the joints hosted by Spooky to CEO to Red Bull, with iDom LIKELY having a teeny edge. Punk might have eeked out a few more wins or they might be damn even, but there certainly was no "usual washing" by either.
What I understand is this punk can play every character yes but he as only 1 main idom as 2 main idom growth is like cell always growing until he reach perfection.
