The Capcom Cup 12 is drawing near, and the global leaderboard ranks have finalised. The top Street Fighter 6 competitors in the world will be automatically qualified for this massive tournament.

Now that the Kuaishou FightClub Championship 6 has wrapped up the Capcom Pro Tour 2025, we can see which fighters are on their way to the Capcom Cup 12.

The Return of the Capcom Pro Tour Global Leaderboard

The Capcom Pro Tour’s global leaderboard was removed from the circuit for years before returning this season. This gave competitors more incentive to grind tournaments to climb up the leaderboard.

Only the top six competitors on the leaderboard qualify for the Capcom Cup 12, so the final Premier event, Kuashou FightClub Championship 6, had a lot riding on the Top 8. After this tournament, Victor ‘Punk’ Woodley‘s fifth place finish put him at 600 Points, enough to get him into the top spot.

This shook the leaderboard up in a big way, pushing Samuel ‘EndingWalker’ Arm out of the top six completely. Keep in mind, top players can qualify for the Capcom Cup 12 in other ways, including the upcoming World Warrior events.

Here are the competitors qualifying for the Capcom Cup 12 through points alone:

1. Punk – 600
2. Momochi – 570
3. Kobayan – 510
4. Ryukichi – 490
5. Dual Kevin – 470
6. Itabashi Zangief – 440

They will join a very stacked group of qualified players, including Amjad ‘AngryBird’ Alshalabi, who is taking Kakeru ‘Kakeru‘ Watanabe‘s spot after the veteran announced his retirement from pro play. Saul ‘MenaRD’ Mena and Zeng ‘Xiaohai’ Zhuojun round out a pretty intense competition.

The Capcom Cup 12 will take place from March 11th to the 15th, although the final battles may be locked behind Capcom’s new and controversial pay-per-view system.

ESI Ranking System
We’ve created a ranking system to help you quickly know how good each gambling platform is. As gamblers ourselves, we know which factors matter most to you, so we follow a best-in-class methodology to test each one with no stone unturned. Once done, we then rank each platform based on the following tiers:
  • A-Tier High-quality sites that deliver a top experience every time. They boast strong performance, nice features, and reliable support, but are just shy of perfection.
  • B-Tier Solid platforms that are worth a spin. They’re safe, fun, and functional, but may be lacking advanced features or have minor drawbacks.
  • S-Tier Reserved for elite operators only. These go well beyond the norm with lucrative bonuses, rewarding promotions, lightning-fast payouts, and a flawless experience overall.
