Someone online said mena is the player that everyone that punk would be in sf6. I completely agree. Meaning everyone thought that punk would dominate sf6. But instead me a is winning everything and is consistently the top sf6 player

I am a long time Blanka player - since the 1990s. Also, I have been a fan of Mena since SF5 because I liked Birdie. Later, I was glad to see him use Blanka in SF6. Then he started winning with him, that was just great. I really enjoyed this video because of the Blanka analysis, the Mena analysis and to hear Mena discuss his strategies. Great video. Thanks.

I'm a super casual newb to watching high level fighting games, last years EVO Top 6 was the first esport event I ever watched (I've watched it several times since, one of my go to background videos) and even I can tell that's ridiculous. My first impression of him during that tourney was it seemed like (and i mean this in the best way possible) he wasn't even trying and almost took the dub. Like, he was up there mostly to entertain himself because if he took it too serious it'd be over too fast. Up there with no headphones and checking whatsapp in between rounds like it's a Tuesday afternoon

As a Luke player I was impress by his level of skill with him in SFV and going into SF6. And as of lately I become evenly more impress by his level of Blanka and how well he played with him. The first time I witness him using Blanka was at CEO 2023 when he pick him up at finals against Nephew and it was an amazing event. I'm hoping to see him do well again at this years EVO 2024 and pull off another victory again.
