## Key points

- 2Game won the 2026 Street Fighter League Americas Finals.
- Blaz’s clutch performance helped set up the comeback.
- The coach says limited travel chances have kept talent hidden.

## Summary

Latin America’s Street Fighter 6 players are making a strong mark in international competition, and team 2Game won the 2026 Street Fighter League Americas Finals. Their success highlights the region’s depth of talent, which the team’s coach links to players making the most of limited chances to compete and travel.

The final featured 17-year-old Chilean Blaz, who helped 2Game recover from third place the previous year. He stunned viewers with three consecutive perfect parries while close to defeat, then Mexican teammate Lugabo secured the team’s victory. The coach said this was only Lugabo’s third offline tournament, and noted that many skilled Latin American players have historically lacked opportunities to travel; 2Game now plan to prepare for next year’s World Championships at Capcom Cup.
