On Thursday, February 13, 2025, MenaRD, a professional gaming player from the Dominican Republic, posted a letter of fulfillment to Japanese gaming legend Umehara on X (formerly Twitter). "There is no greater honor in my competitive life than to be given a 10-way with Umehara-san," MenaRD said. "As long as I have Umehara-san's valuable time, I promise to show everything I have and be the greatest opponent I can be. " and while showing respect to the legendary Umehara, he is a true samurai in the way he challenges himself to aim high! It is rare in this day and age to post a letter of challenge on a social networking site, and it will be interesting to see if a one-on-one matchup will be realized without a tournament.

The full text of MenaRD's letter of challenge to Umehara

The full text of MenaRD's letter to Umehara is as follows.

Dear Mr. Umehara, Hello. How are you? I have something to tell you today. I believe that Umehara-san is the best Street Fighter player of all time, and that there is no one on the right when it comes to playing long sets in Street Fighter. If you look at his past achievements, you can see how unreasonably strong Umehara-san is when he has player countermeasures in place. I would be honored to play with Umehara-san for the next 10 years, and there is no greater honor in my competitive life. I have always believed in the importance of preparation and have given it my all. I can't help but think about the possibilities of how far we could go after a few months of preparation. It doesn't have to be this year, and it doesn't have to be right away. However, as someone who has been fascinated by Umehara's game and has decided to devote my life to Street Fighter, I would like to have the opportunity to work with him to take this game to the next level. As long as you give me your valuable time, I promise to give it my all and become the greatest opponent I can be. I am always ready. Please let me know when you are ready, Umehara-san. Thank you for reading. From Mena
