15‑Year‑Old Chilean Craime Leads Team Falcons to Top of Esports World Cup Club Championship

Chilean prodigy Jaime "Craime" Bustos, aged 15, won the Street Fighter 6 title at the Esports World Cup 2026 in Paris, defeating 30‑year‑old Japanese veteran Hibiki 5‑2 in the grand final. The victory made him the youngest champion in the tournament’s history and earned a $250,000 prize, securing Team Falcons a direct spot in Capcom Cup 13.

The win lifted Team Falcons to first place in the Club Championship standings with 1,000 points, reclaiming the top spot for Saudi Arabia after two previous titles. The triumph was achieved with only one loss in the group stage and successive knockout victories over EVO 2026 champion MenaRD and EVO Japan 2026 champion Yamaguchi. The event also featured other game finals, but Craime’s historic achievement dominated the headlines.
