However, it was a 16-year-old that took away everyone’s attention as he defeated Valmaster’s Chun-Li in the finals. EndingWalker, playing as Ed, wrecked his opponent in the final bracket. He then simply got up and left the podium without saying anything to anyone. This was one of the strange moments no fans expected, but were happy to experience it. 

After all, it was a savage move, just like the ‘mic-drop’ after saying something very cool. However, EndingWalker later uploaded a tweet talking about this moment, as he did not believe it to be real.

Here’s what he said, “Me walking off the stage after grand finals because reality hadn’t kicked in XD I had an amazing time at the venue. The staff was super friendly & helpful, as was everyone! I just got a bit overwhelmed in the end, which is why I left kinda quickly after winning. I had a great time!”
