Capcom Cup X; Final bracket players and matchups
Sixteen players have now made their way to the Final Brackets of Capcom Cup X. After three days of countless fights between 48 players, the top two players from each group have made their way to the final stretch.
These players will now start from either the upper or lower brackets, depending on their rank in group stages. The top player from each group will start from the upper bracket, while the players in the second spot will be in the lower brackets.
Matches will be played in a double-elimination bracket, with each fight being first to three wins. Every stage will be played in this format, with the first players to reach three wins moving forward. Losers will drop to the lower bracket or get eliminated as per the situation.

All players played five matches, however, Chris Wong from Hong Kong playing in Group B and Xian from Singapore in Group E went flawless. Both players did not lose a single match in their groups.
The top players from the other group did drop one match. Groups where the top two players had similar wins and losses were scored based on how well they performed during rounds.
Capcom Cup X is also going to be the first ever fighting game tournament to offer the winner $1 million. This marks the start of a new era of competitive fighting games. More tournaments featuring much higher prize pools are expected moving forward.
