In the middle of a live stream, the tournament host somehow forgot to check one of his installed mods for Street Fighter 6. As soon as the match began, it showed the character model of Chun-Li with nothing but her bare self. In simple words, she was appearing nude on screen due to a mod left unchecked. The awkward situation even made the commentators speechless as they couldn’t figure out anything.

Chun-Li’s bare-skinned glory kept on going live for at least 12 seconds, enhanced by the jiggle physics of Capcom’s RE Engine. By the time the feed was cut away, the damage was already done. Below is the clip featuring the NSFW mod. Readers who view it as offensive can skip watching.

While commenting on the video featuring Chun-Li, some of them came up with funny reactions. “Certified e sports moment”, wrote one user while giving their take on the incident.

Moreover, other people also didn’t stay behind in sharing their unique opinions and memes. Few of them even advised other SF players to always double-check before going into a live match, especially before entering into any eSports tournament.
