----------

Bonchan (Sagat) [2 - 3] Fuudo (Fei Long)
Very close final round. Bonchan did not notice Fuudo has just reached two bars so Fuudo can FADC the uppercut, perhaps he though Fuudo won't uppercut on wake up, his mistake cost him the game.

Dashio (Seth) [1 - 3] Momochi (Ken)
Momochi did a lot of Air Tatsu. Dashio not only miss uppercut a lot (more than 6 times uppercut hit the wrong way), he also miss anti air with Ultra 1 twice. Momcchi done very well in air to air counter hit.

Sako (Ibuki) [3 - 1] Mago (Fei Long)
Sako picks Overpass, Mago favorite stage. Defensive played by both, very good tactic by Sako throwing Kunai a lot to keep himself out of the Rekke range. Mago miss the chance to punish in 2nd match after block Sako's uppercut given away the match.

Uryo (Sakura) [3 - 1] Fuudo (Fei Long)
2nd match Uryo caught Fuudo back dash with Ultra 1. Every match reach to final round. Some bad luck for Fuudo because his Rekka just right in EX Seismic's punishable before it hits Viper hurt box and it happened couple of time.

Michael Tan (Ken) [3 - 1] Wao (Oni)
2nd round Michael Tan missed his ultra after FADC Shoryuken which can lead him to win. 3rnd match Wao hit Michael Tan with standing high punch 4X in a row. Michael Tan after losing the 1st match, he switched to range game and it worked very well. He has tricky Air Tatsu that anti Wao's anti air or fly over Wao's uppercut. Overall Wao still doing well on his combo, but very hard to break in Michael Tan's barrier after he changed game plan.

Haitani (Makoto) [0 - 3] Fuudo (Fei Long)
Very strong game for Fuudo, he read many moves and dodge Karakusa in the right timing that's shut down Haitani pressure.

Momochi (Ken) [3 - 0] Kazunoko (Yun)
Momochi did lot of random uppercut to stop Yun's pressure. 1st match final round Kazunoko dropped his combo after avoided Momochi uppercut. 2nd and 3rd match are all control by momochi, just the 2nd round in 3rd match Momochi KO by Genei Jin because he focus on the Shoulder when kazunoko has full bars ready.

Michael Tan (Ken) [3 - 1] Haitani (Makoto)
Haitani really has lot of troubles, he spend a lot of HP to close up the distance. Even he has knock down, Michael Tan still managed to escape.

Momochi (Ken) [3 - 2] Daigo Umehara (Ryu)
Daigo did not jump during the 1st match even after knock down Momochi. 2nd match Momochi gets free chance to deal Ultra 2 from Daigo's Hadoken twice. 3rd match once again Daigo hit by Ultra 2 from throwing Hadoken and it KO'd him. Final match Momochi's is all over Daigo, he has great read on most of Daigo's move, free focus attack and free jump in for couple times that link to huge damage.

Sako (Ibuki) [1 - 3] Fuudo (Fei Long)
Unlikely the game against Mago, Sako focus on ground game instead of relying on Kunai. 1st round was close, Fuudo lose by Time Over. Sako did a stylish Tsujigoe + Kunai cross up in the 2nd round. 2nd match Sako escape corner with Kasumi Gake at last HP, the match ended with Double KO, but Fuudo has won the 1st round by Time Over. 3rd match Fuudo counter Tsumuji with focus attack and then follow up with ultra, and final match very steady played by Fuudo, Sako has no chance at all.

Wao (Oni) [3 - 0] Momochi (Ken)
Momochi didn't use his Hadoken that much like Michael Tan. Overall is quite easy for Wao at the beginning. 2nd match free focus attack for Wao, Momochi get instead KO for his 1/3 HP. 3rd match Momochi once again give a free focus attack, and Wao's "never-drop" combo plus damage reset not only stun Momochi, he also gets a perfect round.
