Hisoutensoku is an expansion to Touhou 10.5 SWR and is a multiplayer fighting game made by Tasofro with ZUN's approval. It's easy to learn, hard to master battle system makes for fun and fast paced matches with counterhits often launching girls across the screen. Very fast when played right. As a P2P game, game hosts must forward ports in order to play it or use specific workarounds.

DOWNLOAD LINKS:
Full installation: https://mega.nz/#!ashhnZza!cWdD2mqnQSfpzow5h_LDABQzHOnAiHDL62ceAOF6z9k
Mirror: http://www.mediafire.com/file/7ulje2arv05zjbg/Touhou_Hisoutensoku_%252B_Full_Unlock_%252B_SokuRoll_%252B_SWRSToys_%252B_Tensokukan.zip/file

Extract into the folder of your choice. After launching th123e.exe, wait one or two seconds and then launch SokuRollLoader.exe to enable netplay. To host, hosting player forwards a port (detailed instructions are available on the internet) and provides IP with a port in an IP:Port format, launches the game with sokuroll and uses the Vs Network menu to start the server. Client connects to provided IP and port and plays game.
Should a port be unable to be forwarded, workarounds exist - Autopunch being the best ( https://github.com/delthas/autopunch/blob/master/README.md , launch after sokuroll, both players must run this to work, so host has to mention that it's used) and ZeroTier being the unlikely backup plan. 

This is a central thread for posting information about the game and hosting games. Players are encouraged to get in as much practice as they can before the event. As always, feel free to ask questions about the game.

The winner of this tournament gets what's inside THE MYSTERY BOX. Only they get to see what's in it, though they may choose to reveal the contents. Bring your best.

TOURNAMENT INFO

-The tournament organizer will not participate in the tournament, but will host for others to help practice for the upcoming event throughout the week.
-If final player count is below 24 players, the event will be a Best of 3, Double Elimination contest. Otherwise, it will be a Best of 3, Single Elimination contest.
-Use autopunch as a host when forwarding ports is impossible. Do not forget to mention it was used to avoid confusion - both players need it to connect. Link here - https://github.com/delthas/autopunch
-Streamer is autistic, please put up with him.
-Take it easy.

TOURNAMENT PROTOCOL

From previous tournaments, there are some things that we've learned regarding the setup. Therefore, all participants are asked to get a couple things ready for when something inevitably goes wrong.

1. OTHER PLAYER DIDN'T SAVE REPLAYS

As spectating is unreliable at best, it's best to automatically save replays (enable in options). After the match, one of the players must upload the replays (found in Hisoutensoku\replay) and then give strmfag the link. This will let everyone see your matches on strm.

2. TWO PLAYERS ARE MATCHED UP, BOTH CAN'T HOST

If you can't host, get autopunch (https://github.com/delthas/autopunch); both players need this. It will likely not function on a work network or an old router, so keep that in mind. ZeroTier is also an option but can be very laggy; both players need it. If the participants fail to have a game until the winner is needed for the next round, it will be decided by concede or coinflip.

3. TOURNEY STARTED, SIGNED UP PLAYERS STILL MISSING

If a player is absent during the first round, his match is skipped until the rest of the matches within the round are done. If he's not there by then, he's counted as a bye and his opponent advances in the bracket. Same applies to later rounds. Don't hold everyone up.

GAME MECHANICS

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnW-6c_H6KU - A comprehensive video tutorial that covers almost everything related to basics.
Wiki: https://hisouten.koumakan.jp/ - Everything from meta choice of character decks to frame data. Lurk here for any info not explained here.


==CONTROLS=

Every character can attack with three buttons: 
A - Physical attacks
B - Weak bullet attacks
C - Strong bullet attacks

In addition,
D - Flight
A+B - Switch cards (Combination is mapped to a separate key)
B+C - Activate a card (Combination is mapped to a separate key)

On the top of the screen, there's a weather indicator and a timer directly below it. The indicator changes on wallslam, groundslam, knockdown or spellcard use. Weather activates when the timer hits 99.99 and lasts until it hits 0. Most of them don't do very much, but some can be annoying or completely gamechanging. More details here: https://hisouten.koumakan.jp/wiki/Weather

Meter in this game is replaced by a character deck. When a match starts, each player gets 5 card slots near the bottom of the screen. After one slot fills up by accumulating meter, a card is acquired - it can be used afterwards by pressing a card activation input when it's active. It's possible to cycle between cards using card swapping input. Some cards require multiple cards to use. More details here: https://hisouten.koumakan.jp/wiki/Deck_Mechanics

GENERAL INFORMATION

For the following, a Tekken notation is used - 5 would mean without a direction, 6 means holding forward towards the opponent, 4 means holding backwards away from opponent, 8 jump and 2 crouch. Like this, 5A would mean pressing A without holding a direction. See video related for how it works.

All characters can dash by pressing 6D or 66. While dashing, bullets are negated and character is invincible to them. This is called grazing. While in the air, j.66 can be used for an airdash and j.6D can be used for flight. Flight can be done in any direction while airdashing is locked to a single vector, so please be careful. Highjumping (pressing down-jump instead of jump; 27, 28, 29) grazes bullets too while in it's starting animation.

By pressing 5A repeatedly while being close to an opponent, it's possible to make a default combo that ends with a knockdown if it's not blocked (only exception is Meiling). It's called a Dial-A. It's possible to cancel any of it's hits except for the last one into B (light) or C (heavy) bullets. Out of those B/C bullets, it is possible to high-jump (27/28/29) to cancel their recovery - this allows chaining more moves. Likewise, it's possible to airdash out of air bullets (B or C) to make more offense. Cancelling recovery of bullet moves by highjumping speeds up your character significantly, but positioning becomes more tricky.

B bullets can chain into C bullets and both chain into skills - almost all characters have 236B/C (quarter-circle forward), 623B/C (dragon punch input), 22B/C (down twice), 214B/C (quarter-circle backward). Some of them have 421B/C (reverse dragon punch). Every one of those can chain into spellcards, though there are some exceptions (like Marisa 214 on block). Knowing what specials you have and when to use them for mixing up when trying to read opponent (in Marisa's case, using 5c into 214c or just 5c) can mean a lot for damage output.

Border Escapes (BE's) are a way to spare yourself a lot of damage if opponent knows what they're doing. When blocking, it's possible to break an orb of one's own block gauge (five orbs on the lower side of the screen) to instantly dash/jump out of blocking. An input for that is holding a direction while blocking and pressing the dash button twice in a row. 1 and 2 perform a highjump to the back or upwards, 4 performs a backdash and 6 for a dash forward. It's possible to Border Break in the air, but only backwards and forwards (4 and 6). This exists because blockstun in this game can be enormous and it's technically possible to lock an opponent into blocking.

Melee drains block bar on wrongblock, but doesn't drain it on rightblock. Blocking bullets and blocking mid-air drains it regardless. Because of this, being on the offensive while making sure that one does not overextend and leave himself open for free hits is in almost all cases superior to turtling - it's easier to throw punches than to block or dodge them, the same principle applies here.

It is possible to cancel the recovery time of most aerial moves by landing - this is called land canceling. By dashing downwards and using an attack like this, it becomes possible to launch attacks faster, but one becomes more predictable as a result.

Lastly, always practice against real players. You will learn a lot of things when trying to defeat someone that is better than you. Most characters have very similar timings on their melee and bullets, so even playing against one character a lot can make life easier when facing others.

CHARACTER SUMMARY

Alice Margatroid
Fumo worshipper. Weak to getting rushed down. Can lock games down after getting the knockdown and spamming dolls if opponent does nothing about it. Struggles to mix things up due to Alice's moveset being mostly keepaway oriented. Great skillcards, decent spellcards. For those that really love their fumo collection as well as non-neurotypical individuals that derive particular pleasure from watching others suffer.

Aya Shameimaru
SANIC of Soku. Fastest character overall, but bullets are gimmicky and hard to hit with at middle or long range, so she has to rush down to make pressure. Above average spell cards, but low damage compared to others. Player needs to go fast enough to make use of Aya's speed. For giant speds and their evolution, unmatched speed demons.

Cirno
Generic joke character on par with Neko Arc. Weak all around, but her 5C shotgun is top tier, default 22B is excellent anti-air and her alternate skills are very good. Most of her basic moves are bad and she has trouble getting into close range. Great at locking down opponents. Floats mid-air after jumping as a personal gimmick. (9)

Iku Nagae
Disco expert with drills. Spam j.2A until it lands, which results in a full combo. Slow, but has a great kit all-around. Has a lot of gimmicky alternate skillcards. Weak to counter rushdown, strong all-around. For D I S C O  N I G H T only.

Komachi Onozuka
Soku's attack helicopter. Slow enough that one needs to overcompensate for her crippling inability to go fast with cancels. Can do air-unblockable attacks, crossups, space control and long range melee. Her 66 airdash always pulls her towards the ground, which lets her land cancel melee moves easily. Slow bullets, average skillcards and spellcards.

Marisa Kirisame
50-50 Kirisame. Powerful spellcards, great bullets, good reversals and well enough spellcard selection. Famous for being able to confirm a fullscreen laser into a spellcard for almost 3k damage. None of her pressure is tight enough into itself that she can lock someone down 100% without reading opponent's mind. So in effect, she cannot lock someone else down if they know what's happen. For mind readers, mashers and failed Aya players.

Hong Meiling
Close range brawler character. Her melee needs bullets to function, but all those bullets are close ranged. Excellent skillcards, decent spellcards. Get in up close and personal and spread Corona-chan one hit at a time. For those welded inside their apartment inside a chinese quarantine zone or those that want to spread the Wu Flu without any special reason.

Patchouli Knowledge
Walking EoSD stage 4. Make a lot of bullets and bait opponents into a deceptively big melee range. Has a lot of seemingly redundant spells that have their own niche. Reversals mostly locked behind spellcards and skillcard alts. Break blocks with spellcards and press the Royal Flare button when their orbs are low for massive damage and hate mail. Decent at keepaway. For vomiting bullets with precision and having enough niche tools for most situations.

Reimu Hakurei
Soku's Ryu. Keep enemy in block by pressing B at the right time. Kill mashing attempts with C and aerial melee. Stop jump-ins with dragon punch. Even has an insta-win spellcard that needs 7 melee hits to activate. Has both meta and meme cards. A certified Jill of all trades character. For those that do not know what to pick.

Reisen Udongein Inaba
The epitome of meaning behind the expression "because physical wounds heal". Has slow, but very dense bullets that are great for space control and locking down, skills that misdirect opponent and let her play more mindgames and a wide variety of spellcards - gas opponents, permanent stat boost, straight damage, make opponent discard a card. Can dash through enemies. Needs to be autistic with combos to deal damage and she doesn't have reversals. For high-speed rusemasters willing to put up with Reisen's bullets.

Remilia Scarlet
The gimmick lord. Has her own unique dash modes - ground dashes arc and can be canceled into melee midway, air dashes teleport. With strong base moveset, punishing skills and damaging spellcards, Remi players have a strong neutral game that easily can punish opponent's gambles. Most of her kit can't be used at range though, so much like Aya, she has to move in. For autists that really hate the mashing community and/or those that like to wield girls with elegance.

Sakuya Izayoi
The walking Jojo reference. Infamous for being a broken hurtbox character with a 6A that dodges attacks when it feels like it. Has knives that give blockstun for days, knives and more knives. Ridiculous melee and powerful projectiles are counterbalanced by below average skills and so-so spellcards. Much like Alice, her pressure can grow predictable, but it is extremely effective when it works. For those that hate fun, and by extension, meidos.

Sanae Kochiya
The good girl is a bait expert. Has many moves which bait opponent towards attacking, then stop their pressure dead. Powerful skills on a cooldown let her control space and play keepaway as she wishes. Her melee and bullets are oriented towards punishing overaggressive opponents. Weaknesses include pressure being mostly 50-50 as mashing out of it can prove more effective than dealing with it in certain situations. For those that like watching people kill themselves and jews.

Suika Ibuki
The drunk grappler. Very strong melee, very strong, but sometimes awkward bullets. Skills are average and sometimes hard to use, but with alternate skillcards become FUN to use. Has two 5-card grab cards that deal obscene amounts of damage should they land and a size increase spellcard straight out of Dobson's fantasies. Struggles with breaking blocks unless she really goes for it, as her C bullets are so slow. Has a unique backwards dash. For those that like to take it easy without overextending until the meter is full, then press the "take a nap" button when it's time to do so.

Suwako Moriya
WARNING. WITH FROG, NO FUN IS ALLOWED. THERE IS NO MERCY. Can fly without restrictions (but still airdashes twice at most), dash underground, spontaneously attack from under the ground during air attacks and more. All of her moveset is gimmicks that user and opponent need to think how to use and counter. All skills are gimmicks, all spells are gimmicks. Generally loses when opponent understands how to counter those gimmicks and when she does not adapt. For horrible shitposters brave enough to understand how not to croak with this one.

Tenshi Hinanawi
Rock drills for days. Loli with a sword has average (and a bit slow) melee, but with B rock drills and C lasers, the bullet game is great. Hard to use skills with plenty of alt choices, powerful spellcards. Tenko's ability to break blocks without spellcard assistance is unmatched, but she struggles with punishing Border Escapes. Use State of Enlightenment and watch low-health opponent scurry to get the fuck out. For sadists and those that want to BE a little girl.

Utsuho Reiuji
Honorary birb of Chernobyl. Obscene damage on her melee, giant spell hitboxes, great anti-air, spacing. Hard to use skills and spells. Slow, but powerful and punishing pressure game. Opponent NEEDS to respect the birb or get fucked up sooner or later. Reliant on long-lasting projectiles to compensate for lack of speed. Can make a nuclear sun straight out of SA and has an alternate grab that hits for 2K-3K damage. For nuclear physicists, Davy Crocket wielders and those that seek ULTIMATE POWER.

Youmu Konpaku
Myon. As a swordswoman, Youmu wants to get in really close and whack with a sword until she wins. Powerful close-range pressure and high ground dash speed, great melee all around, but bullets are mostly stuck at close range. Can defend and control space at once with her ghost half being able to blow up into bullets on demand gimmick. Great skills for pressure, but needs help from alternate skill cards. Needs to rush down in order to function. Great reversals, decent spells. For Sänger Zonvolt and katana weebs alike.

Yukari Yakumo
Train otaku. Somewhat slow, but this is compensated by far reaching melee, extremely useful bullets (blocked B carries people into a corner and C bullets are extremely dense) and skills for space control and mash alike. Zones really well, can SPIN2WIN on reaction and can run a train on someone. Great neutral game, but somewhat slow and can't lock down opponents very well. For murderous train fanatics, fluffy tail Aficionados and those that really do not want to get raped in a corner.

Yuyuko Saigyouji
DDoS the game with bullets. Bullets, bullets, bullets. Melee is slow, bulky, sudden and effective, but where this character shines is making the screen bullet AIDS worse than Patchy. Bullets are slow, but there are many of them and they last very long. Great bullets for spam, great skills for those "gotcha" moments and spam. A lot of choice for spellcards, with reversals being mostly limited to them. SS-ranked character on the cuckord scale. For primaries that wish to make others dodge more bullets, stage 5 bosses and dreamcast owners.

GGs.
I don't really know how to handle meiling but a few things to note is that her neutral melee is incredibly fast and she can just dash in and do a lot of damage or make the opponent be locked down for a long time if they don't know how to counter it. Her bullets might seem costly, clunky, slow or short ranged but they are great cover for closing in on your opponent or for baiting the them into having to graze through so you can hit them out of it with cancel into melee. Plus her default neutral C beats out every bullet that isn't super dense and is reasonably fast.
I'm still conflicted about her spellcards, they are not that strong for the card cost but they are certainly useful in certain situations and combos, but not as much as they feel they should be. 66C into Roc Fist is never going to get old though, regardless of how little damage it does.

Focus a bit more on learning how to graze. In particular, how to continue grazing into the opponent. Not a lot of characters can cancel a bullet move from the ground into an antiair air melee attack and high jump cancels prevents them from blocking, as true DPs are few and far inbetween, so you should learn to wait until the enemy bullet dissipates before letting go of graze and melee. Doing 66/44 in the air helps with this as it also lets you block on empty jumpins if you do it too early with little issue. Movement is OP and so is defense, so abuse it.
Oh and also. Block on wakeup.

Sorry. I'm not used to be able to lock down opponents with my bullets as most of patchy's arsenal depends on the opponent refusing to dash through her bullets to guard crush. Unless spellcards or really meaty setups are involved, that is.
I also don't think he's at the point where BEs could help, although they're fairly important to know how to do specially when facing Tenshi or Yuyuko. Fundamentals are a lot more important.
>>1982
Thanks for the advice I appreciate it. I'm still experimenting for now but I definitely need to figure out some combos for each of my spellcards. I think I whiffed most of them when we were playing.

GGs. Breddy good.
If you mash too much out of block I can leave small gaps in my pressure such that you stop blocking but there isn't time for your attack to come out. Others will be able to really bully you if you do it too much. Also you should only finish a dial A against block if you think your opponent will jump or mash attack. You can use bullets to extend pressure and highjump cancel them etc.

Also plus and minus buttons change the delay. Higher delay decreases choppyness.

Replies: >>2000
>>1999
>high/low variant
Maybe I'm misinterpreting you, but did you think that hitting low while the opponent blocks high would land you a hit? In soku, wrongblocking only destroys orbs (the blue hexagon life bar at the bottom of the screen.) Bullets do the same. You have to deplete all the orbs, and even then you only land a temporary stun called a guard crush. You can't rely on high low mixups to get a hit.

GG. You've come a long way since the first time we played. I hope you enjoyed your 2-for-the-price-of-1 typhoon bluesword special, it's a rare but delicious delicacy. I think you mainly need to work on corner pressure and corner defense. Work on covering both the air and ground with your pressure so the opponent has to guess which way to escape. Likewise, don't forget to dash out when I pressure you in the corner. Practice more BE 2's (The hj. 8 variety), they are extremely handy, not just in the corner, but neutral as well.

Those kinds of cards are kind of gimmicky.

Yeah here's a few tips.
Royal Flare: Simply do not jump. Refuse to jump as either you block it for very minimal chip damage or you contineously graze through it on the ground fowards to completely avoid it and hard punish. It is impossible to dodge if you are in the air. Beware that patchy can use it on certain combos but i suck at that so i just go for the air punish.

Bubble shield: Basically invulnerability, evade patchy and maybe trow ranged heavy bullets when it is safe since she can't graze with the bubble on. It does have a small health limit and a short timer so you can theoretically out-DPS it on Typhoon if you're good enough. Still not worth it.

Bubble spray: It can't be blocked but it can be grazed, it does not prevent you from doing anything but if you get filled with bubbles you can be fullcombo'd Not showcased in matches because i'm bad and because it's a silly gimmick and never managed to get it to work online before.

GGs. Pressure in this game pretty much means rolling a train on somebody until they escape. Border Escapes are a massive help when trying to get out of very tough situations, so please make use of them. Meiling also has really great C bullets, so once you have the spacing to use them, they're a great help with "get in" part of "get in and start slamming". Hakuroukens are good for Meiling too, surprised they're in your deck. Practice more and you'll get better.

GGs. I hope it's not getting too boring playing the same character. Try to watch for windows to use your specials in - Reimu has her own bag-of-tricks loadout with 623 and 421. Wind God Kick is a great spellcard too - its a one button melee reversal, if I remember right. Try to flood the midscreen with bullets, rush in and mix up highs/lows/bullets for pressure. Reimu also has good alts aside from Youkai Buster - her 623 alts in particular are good if you can't seem to land default 623 even with card activation.

>I can't get air pressure to work at all. Do you react BE to all j8As? When I just do j5A it gets BEd too.
Air pressure is EXTREMELY fucky in this game for a few reasons. To explain it, here's a quick flowchart of how one can attack in the air (assuming it's airtight):

j.5a -> j.6/2/8a (positioning-dependent 80% of the time - do one thing or it whiffs) -> j.5b (into c)/c -> j.skillcards

Do you see it? Melee moves HAVE to end after j.6/2/8a because opponent WILL want to cancel into B or C bullets to avoid having to deal with recovery. That's why typically, Border Escaping after j.6/2/8a is a good option, opponent wants to bullet there to keep up the pace. But for air pressure, there's an option of purposely wasting airdash/flight uses to reset RIGHT AFTER j.6/2/8a (j.5a -> j.6/2/8a -> 66D (enemy BE's forward/back?) -> j.5a into damage) or even doing things like j.5a -> j.5c -> 66D -> j.5a. Of course, it sacrifices pressure potential because you get far less chances to guard break in the air, but it dies less to straight up getting countercombo'd out of BE.

>Also typhoon a shit. My only good move in it is 5c and youkai buster but youkai buster doesn't connect properly point blank. I'm also shit so it all goes wrong.
Pack weather swords if you can't into weather control yet. Reimu's deck should have free space for them. I also recommend coins.

Oh yeah, and for Wind God Kick, it's a 3 cost card and check this out:

>Invincible 1-10F.
>Graze 11-25F.

Time this right and it's pretty much Reimu's own meme beam.

I could Play soku 5 hours stright and never get bored. I was a little ambivelent about joining the earlier host today since I joined so many yesterday and didn't want to take them all up.

I have one 623 skill card to remind me to use it. Though I just can't find the place to use it. Upper body invul on a kick also seems bizzare but I haven't properly tested it to see how it works as a revresal. Marissa's works against my f.5a, 6a, and 5a. Just need to figure where it works and be prepared for intense laser face tanking otherwise. I want to get good at using 421. b version seems like a corner jump/mash and maybe also air corner melee since it does 1 orb on air block. c version has some interesting mid screen pressure extension use and also a few graze rames.

>moves other than youkai buster
I have a few alt decks but I designed them with certain character styles in mind. There a bit over specialised as a result so I'll probably change this just so I'm not using one deck against each character.

>wind god kick
I've been hesitent to use wind god kick for a while since Reimu doesn't have a low CN and 5c does <1 spirit. I should start using it since it has good damage potential and cheap cost. Also had a couple 2 card reversals but was too stingy to use them.

GGs.
You're getting some better confirms and calling me out on stupid approaches like j2a from a mile away.  You don't cancel melees to bullets very quickly. You can do it the moment a melee hits. Theres not much point delaying it. If youre used to staggering them to hit AI mashing that doesn't work since a human will graze a lot of loose bullets. And it leavesyou open. You're eating a lot of damage from mashing between my bullets and my melee. If you block a bullet and I motion cancel it I will have quite high frame advantege. You will only get a hit on me if I make a mistake.

For corner escaping theres a lot more options than just trying to attack. Firstly border escaping. If you recognise I do a 6a then the only other melee I can do is a skill which are both risky options. Doing a BE2 will get you out and give you a chance to escape, though I can still follow if I'm ready for it.  You can also do a BE on reaction. 
When I'm doing loose pressure with lots of resets you also have the option to jump/highjump.

The hakuroukenes are cool and you used them well, but they almost seem like a crutch when you're using them for pressure. You can get similar cancels to extend pressure but highjump cancelling bullets, though not as good as a hakurouken.

Yeah, that did cross my mind too honestly. Sometimes I have a lot and I don't quite know how I'm going to get through them all. I'll try to avoid using them like that at least until I get comfortable extending pressure properly, they should be useful for doing weird frametraps and stuff eventually when I get a bit better at my blockstrings.

Don't worry about your current skill level. There are similar people like you signed up in the tournament right now so you'll have good matches.

ggs, and yes i can vaguely remember playing against you before 
i can't even decide what to do on typhoon, i'm pretty sure i would lose against you because of sheer damage output so maybe i could just stall, or burn a time slow card at worst. even with all that range the knives add a ton of proration and not enough damage to make up for it
honestly i should probably just manipulate the weather forecast instead

You have to have multiple strategies to win typhoon. It all depends on how your opponent is playing. Cards are top priority. If someone has a card that guarantees big damage with no risk, then they set the pace. Otherwise, it's whoever has the health lead. If they're confident they can win, they'll just run in and start attacking, and it's your job to know if you need to contest it or run. Somebody who just goes berserk mode on the ground can probably be cheesed with your 3A, 623, etc. They will then probably adapt by doing ranged bullets, lots of grazing and fly-in melee. For this you need to be able to track your opponent and predict their bullets and dash effectively. 

Try this: 66(dash), hj9, 66(airdash) -> poke (j5a,j6a,etc) -> land cancel, repeat. Stay low to the ground. For sakuya, this should minimize your bullet vulnerability, and allow you to search for an opening into some j5a j6a j5b j6c 623 string. Avoid moves with cooldowns, and land cancel everything to maintain graze for as long as possible. Practice strings on a jumping training dummy so that you get used to it. Can't say how effective this will be for damage, but at the very least I won't be able to abuse your lack of dashing with j6C, land cancel 6C 22C, etc. This method should at least give you some more useful tools for typhoon that you can improve as you go.

After a ballsy clash in the finals, going 2-2 into a match point, Yukari managed to clutch out the MYSTERY BOX and DETHRONE last tourney's champion in a cage match that left the player one hit away from losing. For that feat they have been awarded THE MYSTERY BOX. Though they have linked it in the stream chat, it's up to them whether to link it anywhere else. Thank you for attending the tournament!
