Bananeira is handstand in portuguese. It comes from a brazilian expression "plantar bananeira", which means literally "to plant banana tree"

[@marlinmurrell620]

I knew it had something to do with bananas lmao

Just chipping in becuase as a portuguese person (from portugal), i have never heard that xb the name we give to the handstand over here is "pino"! Do a handstand -> fazer o pino xb

[@gustavosantana7711]

@@superruikiri Really interesting, here in brasil we know "pino" just by the metal things used in objects or the type of screws used on odontology. Bananeira is the most common word associated with handstand, especially linked to capoeira and brasil's colonial-era cultural history of resistance

[@Azteck9]

Just started with Eddy today and got to Mighty Ruler. Can't wait until his hype is over for him and the next character drops so these band wagons will stop playing him. Now as far as his placement, he's gonna end up low tier like always. He's so readable. And you can interrupt both of his stances once he gets into them with heat and RD. Eddy mains are going to have to play super solid at high levels to get things going. It really sucks that they changed so much about him from previous Tekkens. DB1+2 doesn't bounce, 3~4 is gone. No good combo damage from B14, 3+4, and you don't stay in Negativa unless you're moving. But I'm a Zaf main so I'm used to getting my main shat on. But , I'll make him work. Waiting on Lei now.

In the time where I buy the game 2-3 days later everyone complains and calls it trash guess I had to hold that love the game tho

[@syphertheskydragon7170]

Hey Lotus, I have two questions for you and the comment section can also help with the second: 1. I picked up the game recently (don't have online just yet) I've picked Zafina as my main and I was wondering if you know any channels or people I should tune into to pick up some pointers besides training mode And question 2: would you consider or have plans on making a video about match up knowledge or a video about not necessarily a tier list but in your opinion, the strengths and weaknesses of certain characters. I feel like it could be a good or at least fun discussion video

[@MrDyran21]

What overlay border do you use for your camera it’s clean ?

[@ScoopsMayCry]

Is he able to get stacks only from doing certain moves/follow ups or can he just do that in neutral? I haven't played this patch yet but I want to know if giving Eddy space would be detrimental.

[@djasscoast9992]

Hella funny hearing lotus attempt to speak Portuguese

[@floridiann7029]

Personally I like Eddy a lot, he’s easy to play hard to master. You can get far just spamming 33333 but they’ve made every hit negative frames and you can crouch the 4th-5th hits getting a full launch or block the 6th hit low. Idk I’m enjoying facing him I feel like he’s a lot more fun to face now then 7

[@floridaman7206]

You should use Eddy’s d4,3 it’s not a natural combo but it is on counter hit and a lot of people get hit with the mid anyways. If you land it, you get a free crouch throw

[@ThePatrick19910710]

Did I see Eddy SIDE STEP?!... oh lord, here we go lol

[@aaronwingard3886]

I stole your future custom lol but are there any moves you may use to keep someone in check after they block a string? Similar to how Lars and Reina have their f1+2 if I remember correctly

[@Bajancheese90]

Rage arts come out at 8 frames so for example if you get tagged or block a move that’s at least +6 your rage art is now 14 frames which is why his 12 frame grab beat you out and killed you

[@sErend1pTY000]

I can't say if they are really ancestral, but I don't think they are. In "rodas de capoeira", which means capoeira circles, the fighters' movements are always accompanied by music, especially the berimbau, the instrument that Eddie plays at the beginning, so I think those shadows are just musicians representing a capoeira circle. Sorry if the grammar is wrong, I used a translator
