The series of Capcom Pro Tour 2024 (CPT 2024) Premier events comes to an end with the Kings of the World tournament. All the Street Fighter 6 elite is here!
The upcoming event Capcom Cup 11 is the biggest, most prestigious SF6 esports tournament of the yearly schedule. Winning it can be compared to becoming an Evo champion. Naturally, all the top competitors strive to reach this goal, and this makes CPT 2024 qualifiers packed with the biggest names in the fighting games community (FGC).
Kings of the World is pretty special, as the event completes the qualification period. Sure, there are some more CPT 2024 World Warrior finals left, but these regional tournaments do not reach the level of the offline international qualifiers.
All the details of the SF6 Kings of the World tournament are here: the schedule, stream, details, and final results.

The winners final match reached the final round of the final game. Kilzyou was strongly behind in the health department, but he managed to land Juri’s Level 3 and then found an excellent opening to seal the deal.
DCQ delivered a nice comeback in the losers semi vs moke. From a corner, his M. Bison pushed Chun-Li strongly back — and with quite a few nasty throws, won the match.
Armperor won the losers final against DCQ to advance to the grand final of this Capcom Cup 11 qualifier.
After resetting the brackets and reaching the very last game, Armperor defeated Kilzyou and won the Kings of the World tournament.

Road to Capcom Cup 11
The Capcom Pro Tour 2024 series started back in July with the Street Fighter 6 Evo 2024 tournament. After that, we could witness seven other Premier and Super Premier Capcom Cup 11 qualifiers. Only 11 spots are available via the CPT 2024 Premier events.
Kings of the World is the last big chance to qualify for the biggest Street Fighter 6 competitive tournament. It is not surprising to see the best competitors being here. Even those who’ve already qualified do not miss this chance to train in the harsh event environment — Capcom Cup 11 is unforgiving.
