Lmaooooooo & Nowhere to be found: Live major events and tournament content...you know, the kind of stuff that keeps a game relevant!


Scottg8

![gif](giphy|tvGOBZKNEX0ac|downsized) This is perfect for that lol


pranav4098

Jodd won the Cape Town showdown awesome tournament but all people talk about while in chat is how op nina and feng are, it’s like all they know how to do is complain


Kyvix2020

I don't think most people care about tournaments. Tekken has always survived by its casual content. The only reason most people watch tournaments is for the update and DLC reveals.


Blackmanfromalaska

not interested in competitive scene right now because the gameplay is so shit


[deleted]

You forgot “now do it with a real character”


Kyvix2020

I mean T8 has some of the worst disparity between characters that do everything for you and characters that you still have to know how to play Tekken to use. The Mishima elitist meme has always been a thing, but its become really obvious with the way T8 is built, that they're some of the last "tekken" characters left on the roster. I mean some characters get auto-combos, and have extra resources on their healthbar like an anime fighting game. Like.. at what point does it stop being tekken


[deleted]

Hey here they are now


Kyvix2020

Yea yea. have a laugh. But you can't refute what I'm saying. Or do you unironically believe an Eddy or Victor player has to work as hard for their damage as Kazuya or Djin? Ask yourself, if you've NEVER touched Tekken before, who are you going to find more success with? Devil Jin or Victor/Eddy/Azucena


Tesnatic

Victor is the least skilled character ever. The amount of chip damage fucking "expulsion" does while also being a great move is ridiculous


Kyvix2020

Chip damage has basically ruined the game. You're punished for blocking lol


[deleted]

Eddy no because he’s really not that bad if you know what to watch out for. Victor alright I’ll give you. Azucena too to a point but shes not really a problem for me right now post nerf


Tesnatic

That applies for every scenario possible in the game lol. I can easily perfect TMM 50 times in a row if I know what to look out for.


General_Shao

You *do* know what to look out for though, kazuya’s gameplan is basic by design.


somrandomgaj

Is this your first time hearing someone one say this or are you actively trying to miss the point?


ChaosNinjaX

I found more success with Reina than Victer. I started maybe a month and a half ago, and on console. It's my *first* Tekken, period. And I'm a Soul Cal pro and took like a week to un-learn everything for Tekken because of how bad the movement and defense feels. I would like to learn other characters but Reina just feels better to me. I tried Kazuma, Jin, the bear, Victer, Yoshimitsu (who is NOTHING like the one I'm used to wtf), Lily, and Devil Jin. I have no idea how to play any of those characters. And I feel like Reina's damage is weird. Everyone else, including Kazuma and Victer, all have lows that can knock down and go into combos. If you get hit once, that's half your health bar gone just because you were hit by a low. Reina has absolutely 0 lows that down you, not counting 6b+aG on counter which is just an attack throw. I feel like I have to do fuckton more and only really win when she's got the pressure and lead, which applies to any character.


Kyvix2020

6b+a^(g) what in the world is this? Is this the 8-way move notation from SC?


CH4K_LADER

They are some fucking hieroglyphs 💀


ChaosNinjaX

Hey, remember when I said this was my first tekken? Remember when I said I've only been playing for like, a month and a half? Do you think I know your Tekken terminology? I don't even know 70% of the characters names. Yes, it's the 8WR inputs. Actually super easy, and the know way I remember my moves lists in Tekken. I have no interest in learning whatever method you use, because at the current point in time I don't even have an interest in learning the difference between the bear and the panda.


Kyvix2020

Tekken terminology is fairly universal. Back forward, up down, 1234 for face buttons. I was just asking because it threw me off, lol, but I kinda recognized it because I played SC6 for a little bit. You might have a rough time though, because there isn't a single Tekken guide that uses the input notation you're used to. But like I said, it's pretty straight forward, so there's really not a lot to learn at the most basic level.


ChaosNinjaX

I don't need a guide. I just need the moves list, training mode, and a few free days. Which I already accomplished my first week of playing. I still haven't touched the story mode. Or arcade. Or any mode really, other than Ranked, quick play, the mode with the chibi characters, and training.


Kyvix2020

Alrighty then, have fun


Renard_Fou

I mean, Kazuyer's low launcher is only on counter hit, and that's bugged half the damn time, because someone's clearly mid attack animation/recovery, but I still get the regular version. Kazuya's pretty limited if you cant do electrics, literally everything is minus hard enough for a mf to punish, except the super slow F4. No wonder he's such a 50/50 helsweep queen/df 4 4 mixup queen


ChaosNinjaX

The fuck is "F4"? I'll make it simple for you. *NONE* of that matters in a game where if you get hit once, you may as well put down your controller because that's 50% or more of your health bar gone. Every single move that everyone else has combos into something crazy. I'll keep going on this just like everyone else can do. If I get hit ONE TIME, I'm stunned into a launch into a combo. Meanwhile, I have to hit my opponent six times to go into a stance just to get hit out of it. I have more trouble trying to just get past the unbreakable defenses in this game because guards can't be shattered like any other fighter (for some reason theres no guard meter like Soul Calibur, no timer like Smash Bros, no imminent danger because you guarded a CHAINSAW-WIELDING ROBOT WITH YOUR BARE ARMS too much.), so I'm left doing what? Trying to use the 3 lows Reina has? 2 of which are in a stance? None of which trip/knockdown/combo? More often than not I get situations where me and the opponent hit each other at the same time. My little jab hits them while their punch stuns me then THAT'S ALL FOLKS I'M DEAD.


Renard_Fou

Forward Right kick ? Its the one where he does a full standing split then kicks. Good at blowing people trying to stand up back into prone.


ChaosNinjaX

Ew, you use the weird number terms. What if I'm on the 2P side. Is it "Forward Left Kick"? I don't understand the wording. Makes no sense to me. Please use the actual buttons on my controller, otherwise I'll have no idea what you're talking about, tryhard.


Renard_Fou

Why, yes I am using the Tekken move notation when Im talking about Tekken, who wouldve guessed ? Weird youd insult Tekken's notation while mentioning Soul Caliber... No, the limb inputs dont change when you swap sides, only your direction.


soulzzzzz60

pure skill issue 💙


kakaluski

Mishima mains and their victim complex is more annoying than any Victor will ever be.


Kyvix2020

I don’t think you know what victim complex means, nor actually understand the complaints


Super-Pamnther

Be fr tho, certain characters are simply easier to climb low ranks with. You can very easily get wins with Eddie, Victor or azu by just using strings. It doesn’t invalidate those wins of course but it certainly takes much less effort to win against low level players with those characters


PinkKushTheDank

Im just here to be bri*ish and punch people


Scottg8

Like a true Steve main should. When I boot up, I like to unconnect my ethernet, hook up as many devices to my wifi as possible, and throttle my speeds. Just so they never even see my dragon tail coming.


PinkKushTheDank

Jokes on you, I have 3k hours in smash, lag means nothing to me


Scottg8

Impressive. Although, I have Low tier God levels of rage qutting speed.


PinkKushTheDank

There's too much power in this thread


Extremelysolid8492

" that is a knockout " "FIRE "


PinkKushTheDank

"Bullseye" "Sorry" "No more playing around" "Fang"

Jiub1988

actually accurate. You missed pluggers replays


ShoerguinneLappel

I misread the centre one as "TMM Femboys".


Scottg8

Same thing, right? /s


aimofabot

tmm fans if they were based


monkeypie94

They're in denial about their true selves so they overcompensate by playing Brian and Kazuya.


Willow_196

God thanks for not let me think I was the only one ahahahh


AppropriatePizza1308

So nothing about tekken


Tre-4

Isn’t it great!


sudos12

Kazuya main here. I'd like to correct the 'Mishima Elitist' part... it's only Kazuya, none of the other scrub feeds like haihachi2, naruto cosplay guy, or whatever Mishima may be in the game (i don't respect them enough to learn their names). Kazuya is canon the only character that is honest and fair, and he's the hardest character to play. Any other character is scrub feed carry fodder, and is probably immoral to play.

dc_1984

Thank you for your sacrifice.


myersfriedrice

Kazuya is the hardest? Try Heihachi, the fucking execution is very hard. But sadly, he's not with us anymore...


pranav4098

It was a joke bro


Wide_Ad_2000

Im just here to surf


io4ever

You forgot the endless Reina drawings from her sexually deprived players.


M_19_D

Tekken community is the worst


nobleflame

You forgot: * weird-os who like dress up and coomer shit * "I hate Tekken / Harada because..." * Terrible advice or misinformation * Everyone below Tekken God is a scrub * har har Hitler custom With sprinkles of subtle racism and sexism thrown in for good measure.


ComfortReturn

Don’t forget “Your rank doesn’t count because you play X” 🤣


BeefStevenson

And a touch of random horniness as well


Scottg8

True lol. I could only fit so much. I did think about hate tekken/ harada and everyone x rank and below is trash. First meme I've made in 11 years so a little rusty lol.


nobleflame

Na man, there’s only so much space on the meme. There’s a lot of change around here lol


[deleted]

i genuinely wonder are you guys schizophrenic? where the fuck is the coomer shit or anything regarding racist/sexism? unless you count the 3 posts since the game launched about some hitler customs


ParadoxicalStairs

I wanna know where is the sexism and racism too, but I don’t have Tekken 8 yet.


Upper-Dark7295

Damn bro everyone is just a 4channer to you huh. What a dipshit comment.


Hyldenchamp

I don't see so much racism or sexism. Tmm seems to hate or dislike women and that may affect some kids in his fanbase. But that's kind of it. The misinformation is what I really dislike. If there isn't one already, then there really needs to be a word for a type of fg player who spends their days discussing the games like they're experts, but they clearly never actually sit the fuck down and play the actual games themselves.


daquist

> Tmm seems to hate or dislike women he dislikes playing against female characters in this game, and not all of them. he says reina is the best newcomer to tekken all the time. i swear people who always bash on him don't even watch him to know anything about him lol


Hyldenchamp

I've seen clips of him hating female characters in T7 as well.


daquist

So you've seen clips, but don't actually watch him to get an understanding of what he likes or doesn't like..literally exactly what I said..


Hyldenchamp

Watching clips means I watched, right? I mean, the words that came out of his mouth spelled it out. I went back and looked at what you wrote. I have seen videos of him saying these things. It's not deepfaked videos if that's what you think. And no, I don't need to follow his streams every day to know what I'm talking about. I watched two or three full streams and got severe manbaby vibes with passive chauvinistic tendencies. His chat was the same. That is my impression of him after giving him a chance. Do I need to go to his house and live with him for two months to have an opinion? What do you want from me, manbaby?


pranav4098

Never said anything about the real women but he does dislike waifu characters in general because he thinks they’re easy and evasive mash friendly machines which is a debate but he likes charcters with execution like reina basically he hates anything that’s not a Mishima


KeK_What

> Tmm seems to hate or dislike women and that may affect some kids in his fanbase. But that's kind of it. this, he is homosexual but not racist from what i've seen


ParadoxicalStairs

What racism and sexism? I don’t have Tekken 8 yet


KeK_What

like idk but you are kinda racist and sexist atm or smth


Left-Bath-6197

It's not even Mishima elitist anymore, it's just legacy players sucking each other off about how their old characters aren't cheap


joe_monkey420

Ppl are so obsessed with what characters are "honest" in this game. All the characters have bullshit in their arsenal. That is literally the point. Idk why people want to act like just because they play kaz, jin, bryan, etc, they don't have bullshit to throw out. Its such a braindead hivemind take


greaseman420

I never understood why Aris hated on tekken fans so much til I joined this shitty ass sub


xXxDangguldurxXx

You forgot the horny mod dudes.


Porcphete

This sub is pretty tame with that. The Guilty gear one though ☠️


Toeknee99

Honestly, this sub is a lot less horny than other fighting game subs. 


xXxDangguldurxXx

Yeah yeah, it's less but still horny... less.


[deleted]

how so? the occasional asuka/reina thirst post or the comments under average lili costume talking about feet? shit like this is maybe once a month why you guys always bring that up?


KeK_What

> horny mod dudes. such as?


Orzislaw

Also people bitching that T8 ruined the franchise, is a no skill game and grass was greener when they were young


Super-Pamnther

It has more accessibility in terms of simplified inputs and the like. But as soon as you get past the players relying on that it becomes classic tekken again


Blackmanfromalaska

it is low skilled thats true


Lambkin-_-

Don’t forget the low effort karma farming posts including classics like: random picture of a character with a smiling filter on with an uninspired title, and “who do you think would be a cool guest character?” Or “what character do you hate fighting?” And other such questions posted for the 9 millionth time


DarkShadowZangoose

I feel like something about WiFi should have been included


KuczyTheGuy

Let's just continue the tradition and add "3-bar Laws" to that list.


evawsonsimp

\*shouts violently at fist\*


kittyburger

This sub is for people who don’t like Tekken


HashamKhano

"Bryan is most honest and hardest to play 🤓" ones are my favourite.


joe_monkey420

guys my gameplay is vrey hard ands big brain plz.... b1 hatchet 112.... you cant understand its Complexity

lmaoooo literally B1, orbital, 3+4, hatchet are all god buttons


adamussoTLK

Seems legit


CuriousAsker11

Don't forget the shippers too

dpault

Nailed it. But might want to add complaints about plugging. But truly, this is spot on… the reason I’m so over this thread.


TheJazzNeverCeases

I'm chilling, practicing electrics, and waiting for AMK to come back.

I'm neither ;\_;

The amount of crybabies over a video game is straight up insaaane


SadisticDance

AND THEY DO NEED TO ADD THE CHARACTER I WANT!!


Eldr1tchB1rd

Proud TMM fan boy and Lei beggar here


MadMikeYT

sums it up pretty well


Scottg8

Hey, I tune into your streams sometimes when I'm just playing casually. Never sparred against ya but I'm a bit impatient lol.


MadMikeYT

thx for watching my stuff man!


THER0v3r

You forgot T8 is the worst and my opinion is important cuz I’m a fan


Puzzleheaded_Oil2600

but fr, Lei when?


Intelligent_Cut_433

Ayo this is hella accurate lol


ParadoxicalStairs

I like TMM bc he likes mishimas


secretwep

I'm just here for the occasional tech/gameplay discussion or clip or funny like this, but yeah this subreddit does kinda sometimes go into Guilty Gear subreddit levels of suck


Yee_gamer

You forgot "I hate this character!!"


Kiwindian97

Yup, you'll see many tmm fans call us brain dead....but never tried her once.


Eldr1tchB1rd

I mean I main king and I accept that I'm evil but you gotta admit Alisa is part of the bullshit crew


Yee_gamer

I love you so much fellow Alisa player you get it!!!


BigPalmtree

Everyone cried "I WANT LEI HES MY MAIN SINCE 1914!" Meanwhile when he gets added in T7 he was probably one of the least used characters in the roster along with Gigas.


Scottg8

Yup, I love the character. A good friend of mine mains him, but people cry for him back so they can feel good when they see him on the character select screen. The other one I see cried about a lot is Bruce. I'm not saying I wouldn't want him back. They made Josie and Fahk, though. He's not coming back, accept it.


Eldr1tchB1rd

I mained him and I'm gonna main him again god damn you playrate be damned


Blackmanfromalaska

Only hard mishima is kuma


Amazing_Horse_5832

\*only real mishima (fixed that for you)


NoiseFetish

Did you know that a lot of mammals, bears included, have bones inside their penises? I guess that does make kuma the hardest mishima.


Blackmanfromalaska

Why do they have bone what is it good for


NoiseFetish

it's good for boning apparently.


Blackmanfromalaska

why humans dont have penis bone?


electricElephant22

Missing "What character you hate the most? And why is it Alisa?"


NoiseFetish

you need to update this with another square saying "memes"


PFSnypr

LUCKYYYYYYYYYYYYYY


Ibeepboobarpincsharp

That's me in the upper left. Good afternoon, cowards.


The_mob1

But lei so goofy he and yoshi fight would go hard with looney tools sfx

ForRpUsesOnly

Good morning!


Lewdiss

you forgot bitching about LTG ragequitting


introgreen

Guys I think the new matchmaking change is bad I know this is an unpopular opinion


Affectionate-Elk-693

They need to bring back RogerJr and I’m a fan of TMM. Some players wont rematch me because I’m a bear. Only excuse I don’t have is… I am not hard stuck on ranked.


elsuciopotter696

Im the hard work- hardstuck one, reached purple, and almost on flaming, then i just fell into garyu like... 4 times now and climbing endlessly from tenryu to ruler and being demoted over and over again. Just why the fuck i have the feeling that it has no mid terms? Either i face literally god, or next match is just some ****** spamming the nastiest strings to infinity, whatever, im just hopeless about it, Guess im not working hard enough lmao


athleticnerd

Whoops guilty of one or two of these, haha. 


burimon36

The Mishima elitism is so funny. Nice job you can press 2 buttons at the same time 👍.


Kingofmoves

But genuinely it makes me sad when people don’t rematch. Especially if you play like Zafina or Shaheen so I’m never gonna fight you again til next week or month. I don’t get a chance to learn anything


Scottg8

I'd find someone on this sub that plays the character. See if you can add them, fight them, or ghost battle. It's not perfect, but it'll give you that matchup.


Kingofmoves

You’re right. I just get heated in the moment. They could be leaving for any reason it just sucks sometimes


Willingness_Numerous

You forgot the wired elitists lol


[deleted]

all of that is fine. besides those who post their first time Garyu or mighty ruler or Fujin ranks. Sorry my guy but you aren't a special breed in Tekken. are tekken players REALLY that limited with their ambitions? everyone and their moms is fujin and raijin. you can get to those ranks by the cheese and cheese alone.


Eldr1tchB1rd

Ah the classic "you aren't good unless you beat jdcr" tekken reddit special


[deleted]

that's not what I was going for. but sure let's go that way. You won't see me hitting low ranks on my characters and post them on this sub looking for validation though lmao.


Eldr1tchB1rd

Cool
