12-year old Tekken Tag Tournament 2 prodigy AK has left people awed and amazed, wondering how a young kid like him can win tournaments consistently in a huge Tekken scene in the Philippines at such a young age. Apparently, this sentiment has also been shared internationally.
After winning the TTT2 in the recently concluded Eventhubs, one of the most popular FGC news sites in the world, picked up the story and posted an article.

We, at Team PanCan, would like to congratulate AK for his accomplishments, and thank him as well for promoting the local FGC is a very positive light.
True to the event title's meaning, PinoyVersus' Genesys event became a showcase of gamers who very well might be the future of the local FGC, and also of a player who keeps on winning consistently.
In the main event, Dru stays on top as he beats Ron Lim in convincing fashion in Grand Finals of Super Street Fighter 4: Arcade Edition v2012. Dru's Dictator literally dictated the pace of the match, keeping Ron's Adon at bay and Ron kept getting hit trying to get in, an occurrence that will keep on repeating throughout the entire match, which led to his downfall.
Bifuteki's Winrich meanwhile went back all the way from 5-1 to beat Papable Peter 10-8 in Grand Finals of Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3. Resilience has been the key for WinRich, who lost on his very first match against Charles Leyson, but he kept on beating the competition until he sets himself up for a Grand Finals showdown with one of the best, if not the best, UMvC3 player right now. Peter seemed to be in complete control early on, but the prodigy who now resides in New York showed great maturity and kept calm and composed, and it worked to perfection, coming back to had his first lead at 7-6, and eventually winning the match 10-8.
In Tekken Tag Tournament 2, 12-year old child prodigy AK, proved to be too much for his older adversaries, as his mixed combination of aggression and discipline and grit became the winning formula in winning the tournament, besting HAPZ in the finals. Losing to Silver Heel in the early stages of the tournament, he beat Elite House's Nas, Mont, scav and Nakajima-Jed because getting his revenge by beating Silver Heel in Loser's Finals. In Grand Finals, AK kept coming back, eventually beating Hapz in the first set 3-2 to reset, then beating him again 3-2 to win.
All of the tournament winners took home a Plantronics Headset, as well as a Shirt made by Reset Clothing, and of course 70% of the pot money, while the runner-ups get 30% of the pot money.

To follow up on the recent article featuring ukyorulz video, D-Tier players Lovekiller and Lolokoa have also uploaded separate videos that gathered international exposure.
Lovekiller's video is a Persona 4 Arena character combo music video, featuring Yu Narukami. P4A has been received quite well in the Philippines, and Lovekiller established himself as one of the country's top players. To view the article, click here.
Lolokoa's video meanwhile focuses on basic mechanics regarding the game Chaos Code. From movement, blocking, ukemi, to a basic rundown of the Chaos Gauge and combos using it, Lolokoa explained everything so well that Brazilian Fighting Game site PortalVersus posted an article specifically for the video.

Huge thanks to Raf and Allan Ray for the tips they've sent in to the IAD Facebook Page.
Local PSN Gamer ukyorulz has uploaded a Skullgirls combo/tutorial video featuring the team of Valentine, Fillia and Double. While Skullgirls wasn't able to enjoy the mainstream popularity Street Fighter, Marvel and Tekken currently have in the Philippines, this video shows that it managed to garner loyal fans of the game that play it on a very competitive level and still try to find amazing techs.
So amazing, in fact, that the popular fighting game website Shoryuken.com posted an article specifically for this video. This shows that we are able to not only mimic new techs done by popular players, but create our own as well, so this obviously is great publicity for our Local FGC. To view the article, click here.

A2G has uploaded videos from the recently concluded A2G: Paulo vs Kim event held last Saturday January 5, 2012 at A2G in UMall Taft. The featured a series of one-on-one first-to-ten Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 matches, with the main event being a first-to-fifteen.
You can watch the match videos below, or go to http://www.youtube.com/user/theaddicted2gamez/videos?view=0&flow=grid for the list of their videos.
Kim defeated Paulo in the main event at A2G: Paulo vs Kim, an event that featured a series of one-on-one first-to-ten Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 matches earlier at Addicted 2 Gamez in UMall Taft, with the main event being a first-to-fifteen.
After a competitive start which saw Paulo leading 2-1 after 3 matches, Kim kicked it up a notch and proceeded to win 5 straight which led to Paulo switching characters. The change wasn't enough as Paulo only won once then losing the next five again, which prompts him to try another lineup which also didn't work, thus going back to his original lineup towards the duration of the set. The end result was a convincing 15-5 victory in favor of Kim.
The undercards also put on a show as Cha breaks out midway and beats IFTP|TXO.PromilKid 10-5 after an intense back-and-forth games in the early part of the co-main event. Tonyo defeats AJ in convincing fashion 10-3, Keno puts on a late surge and beats Ran 10-5, Philip proved to be too much for Miro to handle, the former beating the latter 10-3, and a couple of close matches as Garrett defeats David 10-6, and Deo triumphs over Myk 10-6.
The event also became a welcoming party as BIFU.Winrich pays a visit to A2G, to participate in long casual sets with the best UMvC3 players in the country.
