iDom wins SFV Capcom Cup 2019 — results, final placements
Derek ‘iDom’ Ruffin has claimed his first Street Fighter V Capcom Cup trophy at the finals in Los Angeles, climbing from the lower bracket to take Reciprocity’s Victor ‘Punk’ Woodley in the grand final.
iDom has broken out in the Street Fighter V scene in 2019, ramping up on his past 2017 and 2018 successes to find result after result. A win at Defend the North 2019, a 5-6th at EVO, and a top 4 at the LATAM Regional Open has put the player’s name on everyone’s lips.
However, he now will be the talk of the town, after he took home the Capcom Cup, $250,000, and the title as the world’s best Street Fighter V player.
Congratulations to @iDomNYC for winning #CapcomCup2019!!!

iDom took down Fujimura, Infexious, Mago, and Phenom on his way to the Winner’s final, where he matched up with long-time rival Punk. After a close five-game set, iDom was knocked to the lower bracket to face off against Phenom in the Loser’s final.
Dispatching the Norwegian again, he then faced the tricky challenge of not just beating Punk once, but doing it twice. Usually, iDom has been on the losing side of these matches, but the unsigned star stood up when it mattered the most.
iDom stunned the Los Angeles crowd with a reverse sweep to force the bracket reset, taking the momentum into the second set to claim the first two rounds. With only one game separating iDom and $250,000, he let one game slip, before changing from his main of Laura to Poison to secure the title in the fourth game.
