Kilzyou Qualifies for a Third Straight Capcom Cup
After finishing runner-up at Capcom Cup 12, the French contender has earned a return to Tokyo through the Premier Points race.
The road back to Tokyo is secured.
Capcom confirmed AG.AL | Kilzyou as fifth among the eight players awarded Capcom Cup 13 berths through the final 2026 Premier Points ranking. The result came after the last Premier event, Evo France, and rewards his work across the season rather than one tournament win.
Kilzyou competes for All Gamers and is represented by Bandits Talent Management. His qualification takes him back to the world championship stage after a breakthrough runner-up finish in March.
Three Years, Three Capcom Cup Berths
Kilzyou first reached Capcom Cup 11 in 2025, finishing 17th–24th. He returned in March 2026 and made the Capcom Cup 12 Grand Final, where he finished runner-up to Sahara. In an interview that month, he described reaching the final as a historic performance for a European player and said his goal remained to win.
His 2026 season kept him in the Premier Points race. Kilzyou placed third at Evo Las Vegas and joint fifth at CEO before the final ranking was settled. Capcom's confirmation secures his third consecutive Capcom Cup berth and another opportunity to pursue the title that eluded him in March.
The Next Stage
Capcom Cup 13 will bring 48 Street Fighter 6 players to Tokyo's Ryogoku Kokugikan from March 10 to 14, 2027. Kilzyou is the only French player among the eight Premier Points qualifiers announced by Capcom. The full field is still taking shape: World Warrior regional events and finals will determine more places.
For Kilzyou, the qualification marks a return, not an endpoint. He has already reached the final. Now he has earned the chance to go one step further.
