Today we’ll be treated to a special team event put on by none other than the beast himself, Daigo Umehara.
Players participating in the event besides of course BST|Daigo himself include BST|Fuudo, BC|Kazunoko, Haitani, CO|Go1, FAV|Ryuusei, NOJA|Akira, Kichipa, MOV, Acqua, Tachikawa, Ibushigin|Yanai, Ibushigin|Kabe, KojiKOG and many, many more.
This is a 3on3 Street Fighter 6 event so players are all lined up with two teammates. For his own team, BST|Daigo has recruited his longtime comrade-in-arms BST|Fuudo as well as the commentary legend Aaru.
The event has a whopping 524 teams signed up, meaning that over 1,600 players will be competing in this event today, so you can expect practically any Japanese Street Fighter 6 stream to likely be playing in this event.
As is customary with team tournaments, the players are character locked so there won’t be any surprise counterpicking going on, instead purely relying on one’s main character.
BST|Daigo will be streaming his own team’s POV on his stream over at Twitch.
