the new fgc:
dress code - every tournament is a black tie event
etiquette - no smiling/laughing/distractions from the players or audience. begin and end every set with a firm handshake and a brief gender affirmation mantra (failure to properly recite the gender affirmation mantra will result in a fine and suspension from all rickthehadou affiliated tournaments)
sportsmanship - if your opponent is in distress you must pause the match and ask them how they are feeling. if a hug is requested the players must hug on stage for no less than 1 minute (to be timed by a tournament organizer)

tekken players not getting the shun moment demonstrates the design weakness that lead to heat and "aggression". VF always gives you reasons to interact with your opponent. even with a life lead it prbably isn't optimal to stand there doing nothing. tekken mostly on accident ended up with a ssystem that lets you be non commital all the time but they couldn't think of a way to fix that besides canned mixups. they didn't think about why tekken is the only game that lests you block and backdash at the same time.

its amazing how Steve players were known for their timing as if it was their "timing" and not b1 being probably the most broken button there has ever been in tekken
T8 b1 is probably the closest it has been to balanced and it's still THE most important tool the character has

such as? from that video it seems just a character thing, can any other character power themselves up by just standing there and forcing you to interact with them?

Thank you, I enjoyed that song. It was kind of weak during the chorus / hook but super catchy and cute otherwise.
Sounds like Spyro 1 music with how bass heavy it is.

I was surprised by that number too but apparently 444k different accounts played Tekken in the last 30days. They pull their data from Tekkens online replays so these numbers are correct.
Maybe the consoles have more players than we thought or Tekken players simply aren't as active as other communities like how an overwatch player sits in game every single day without fail.

I have never missed a single battle pass.

imagine if instead of rebooting every 5 years, sf actually takes 3rd strike as a base and builds upon that with each subsequent installment
>>
>>559151545
The worst thing you could do for yourself if you really wanted to hit GoD is stop playing. You'll get rusty in both execution and reaction.
Just keep playing and learning and youll hit it. Its not hard its just conditioning
>>
>>
>>559154812
And then what?
Is it gonna become a 3D game with good movement and awesome characters and delete all its own trash characters nobody wants besides Akuma and add a rage and heat mechanic and screws and then have a story about Kazumi hiring Akuma and then rename itself to Tekken?
Cause if not then why are we even talking about that garbage.

watch any old competetive ttt1 match. the rounds always end in time out even in matches with hellsweep characters because getting the life lead encourages you to just backdashing until the timer runs out. positioning is never important because every stage is a pure infinite. throws are no threat so the only characters that can make comeback against nothing but backdashing are the ones with a low 50/50. the solution for the tekken devs was always nerfing backdash distance instead of letting it be strong but not totally safe like literally every other game. the irony being that time outs still happen because every combo is a 15 second cutscene now.

>>
>>559157130
Yeah, and that's a good thing. If I want to play a defensive keepout style the game should allow me to and Tekken does it. Also, backdashes aren't safe in T8 anymore. The neutral frames between the bb don't block anymore.

>>559157849
Not having to get cramps holding a fucking guard button all day long.
Or in Tekkens case holding the stick into back which would make backdashes feel horrendous and we'd constantly be walking backwards. Also punishing becomes fucking annoying cause you'll accidentally do moves with the b input.
If you hate neutral guard play the gorilla and spam cancans, those break neutral guard and launch.

tekken 4 also removed backdash cancelling past a certain range to the consternation of tekken players. that shows how their minds always go straight toward limiting your ability to move instead of creating more risks for it.
>>
>>559160001
it did eexist in 7 and that's what first got applay's attention. investigating all those "why am i getting hit at -9" reddit posts. it's pretty much a niche situation caused by cloppy inputs. nobody gets hit by jab into df1 while backdashing
>>
>>
>>
>>559160248
Well something had to have changed. In 7 I only ever remember getting shat on during the db of a kbd while
In 8 I get clipped in a regular backdash frequently and apparently others have noticed it too. I doubt the entire community just developed retardation overnight.

Timer scam tactics are bad because they are boring for everyone involved at once. both of the players and the audience. Guilty Gear created negative penality to prevent it but even then mistakes like the bridget vs potemkin matchup were so bad that negative penalty couldn't prevent bridget from staying at the top of the screen the whole match
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
watch more than a single round of bridget vs potemkin and come back. literally no though goes into situations where it's not possible for one player to win. if you think it's fine then nobody should ever complain about arslan's infinite stage counterpicks ever again.
