Panda Global signs Street Fighter V player Punk
Panda Global has signed one of the hottest North American Street Fighter V players Victor “Punk” Woodley.
We’re excited to welcome our newest SFV Panda, @PunkDaGod! He’s going to be a force to be reckoned with so watch for him at #ELEAGUE! pic.twitter.com/5RfMbDe8rE

Punk made a name for himself with a fantastic top 8 showing at Red Bull Battle Grounds last year, beating former Panda Global player Ryan “Filipino Champ” Ramirez, Chris Tatarian, and Justin Wong, and taking Hajime “Tokido” Taniguchi to the brink before losing in top 8.
Since then Punk NEC 2016 and Winter Brawl XI and is the reigning ESL King of the Hill. He is winning with high level play and braggadocio, which may rub some players the wrong way but excites fans looking for some personality in Street Fighter V.
Punk is one of the 32 players invited to ELeague’s Street Fighter V Invitational. Yahoo Esports even predicted him to make it out of his group into the finals.
