The 2023 Capcom Cup Taiwanese player UMA (Kagami), who obtained a card cup ticket at CPT World Warrior Asia East, finally won the championship and received a championship bonus of US$1 million (approximately NT$31.57 million, excluding tax).
In the top 16 stage, UMA defeated many players such as Mexico’s KUSANAGI and South Korea’s Leshar. In the winning championship, they faced Hong Kong player Chris Wong, who is also an amateur player. The two sides were neck and neck, and UMA was lucky enough to grab the last light.
The two met again in the finals. Chris Wong’s Luke took advantage of the momentum of the losing champion’s victory over Gachikun in the previous round, ending the game 3-0 and the game reset. Fortunately, UMA regained its form in the reset game and was able to remain calm in the face of Chris Wong’s strong combos. It kept looking for opportunities to regain the advantage. Finally, it ended the game in straight games and became the first to win the Capcom Cup. of Taiwanese.
During the award-winning interview, UMA especially thanked Taiwan’s fighting game community for their support, and said, “After I found out that the prize was one million US dollars, I thought to myself, ‘I’ve definitely won this championship.’”It is said that he only took 300 mg with him when he went to the game.
As an aside, many Japanese watching the game discovered that UMA was wearing a million-subscription commemorative hooded jacket from Hololive’s Vtuber master Mio. This tweet was also retweeted by Shibai Mudan, who also belongs to Hololive Vtuber. Shibai not only followed UMA’s you!!”
(By the way, the race name UMA is taken from the horse racing girl UMAMUSUME, and the 327 in the previous name UMA327 is Oguri Hat’s birthday)
