A Low Quality Video: Knee's Legendary Jab

[@gg.no.re.]

I want Tekken to go back to this. Maximize on the movement and timing of the game and get away from the ‘why sidestep when you can block?’ mentality.

[@SleepyChloeFist]

Good luck :( The Tekken we know and love is gone. All fighting game Devs seem to care about is making sure the people who love mashing have the most fun.

[@xDuuo.]

And dumbass juggling

[@Aerotk]

@@SleepyChloeFist kazumi was the only character which meets this fundamentals but they nerf her. And make her a combo char. Sad tekken is dead tbh.

[@RationalMinded]

Plenty of people dream of these days. Sadly movement is becoming more and more meaningless with excessive amount of tracking...

[@AISciFiStories]

Well high ranked or professional players dominate because they stay away from that mentality, and have great movement.

[@gabrielpezzi8774]

Tekken 5 DR was the pinnacle of high level Tekken. Oki, movement, setups, throws, no 2D, no panic buttons or counterpicks. You had to adapt with your tools, and you could.

[@CozyHumanoid]

No bounds either. The bounds system really made tekken a cheesy fighting game now. Back when it was the dr days it was perfect

[@mazuiface]

Knee called Tekken 5 DR the best Tekken ever. I agree with him

[@arasseo_wakarimashita3904]

Agree...bounce and splat system are cheap mechanics added in new tekken...

This is the type of tekken I fell in love with, I wasn’t around for the arcade days of tekken because I didn’t care for fighting games but this is what makes me want to play. Combos and all the over the top stuff is cool but I love seeing such fluid gameplay that makes you think

[@1Diddums]

I do remember some of the tragic, volatile responses of people seeing "Tekken movement" for the first time, after a certain Tekken 6 video was published about a decade ago - featuring Lee. To think that the current game is leaning more and more towards those who were shocked and appalled at the display of standard back dash and sidestep cancelling, is truly a shame to see. "this isnt real tekken wtf is this??? do combo" To be fair though, these recent setbacks are a first for the latest game. There's always time to address these issues - can only hope everyone can behave and respond appropriately, as we faith our way to a quality Tekken experience.

Normal human: nice interrupt from Knee Speedkicks: Knee used jab 4,56 sec. after start because Qudans blinked and jab hits dj and qudans moral this means Knee have a dominance and after 2 sec he ducks because Napoleon used that for mocking his enemy's in one of his wars.

[@laboflegs922]

Tekken 7 was doing quite alright, for a good time. A few too many changes are being made to something that's managed to do really well. I truly feel all it needed to do, was add characters. Can't quite get behind anyone who feels the roster is bloated. I reckon adding classics in the same fashion as Zafina, someone who received a ridiculously well executed revamp, should've been the status quo. *Insert character into current mechanics* should be written on a whiteboard at Tekken HQ. Comparing the quality of the season 2 roster to the base roster is a conversation that never should've ended. Look at the personality all the season 2 characters have at first glance, plus their rage arts vs. all the OG characters that were there at base launch 2015.

[@binglebop5877]

the new characters on launch were weaksauce. they made bruce and raven women now because harada hates black men and they threw in Claudio, a soul calibur reject, katarina whos just a talking pair a tits and lucky chloe... i dont even hafta say anything, her mere existence is the punchline. gigas coulda been cool but they never bothered to throw a buff ya bois way.

[@bmierror4144]

T7 had molasses movement from the beginning. It also introduced EZ mode characters like Kat and Claudio. In no way was it fundamentally "alright."

[@laboflegs922]

@@bmierror4144 Not true. But your level of play may be much lower than mine. Movement isn't as tough as many make out, should you apply the ancient technique of fujin step. u*,f,u/f repeat; for background. d*,d/b,b repeat; for foreground. You'll know you've got it down when your sidestep looks like a wavedash. Can do mirrored inputs. Doesn't matter whether you're P1 or P2. Lili and Asuka have existed for over a decade. _Easy_ characters are nothing new. Keep at it.

[@mazuiface]

@@laboflegs922 What are you talking about... Tekken 7 has added input lag to every input and even more to SS and movement, as well as movement covering less distance. T7 Vanilla has 9 frames of lag for a ss, and T7FR-now has 6 frames. Quite literally "molasses movement"

I'm kind of wondering if need played like this because back dashing with Brian is kind of hard. I remember early on in Tekken 5 he didn't back dash a lot. so instead of potentially messing up the backdash- which I know he can do now- he opted for a frustrating pressure-based style.
