Capcom has done the unthinkable and has made Capcom Cup XII for Street Fighter 6 a paywalled stream. Brian and iDom discuss the FGC's reactions to this announcement, possible reasonings for Capcom's decision such as focusing on their Japanese market where Street Fighter is much more successful due to the involvement of vtubers and organizations like Crazy Raccoon and GOOD8 Squad, as well as possible solutions to make CCXII available for more audiences such as adding more Chun-Li costumes to SF6 like they did in Street Fighter 5.
