Gon was very... surreal to fight against Or with. It was kind of annoying that Gon and Dr B could appear as Arcade Mode opponents once unlocked, considering how unconventional they were.

I used to do self-imposed challenges on Arcade Mode playthroughs, using only punches or kicks for a match-up. Guess how fun that was going up against either of those two...

[@roberteriksen6434]

What's so amazing about watching older tekken games is just how much agency you have in these matches. Once you are thrown up in the air, its about 2-3 seconds before you're up again and playing. With the screw/bound system and dedicated juggle combos, it can easily take 7-10 times as long before you have to touch the controller again. I really miss that in newer Tekken games. Edit: Man i forgot how Heihachi looks like an actual billionaire in these games. Since T4 he's always had the weird sumo clothes or fighting set, but here he was in his swagger getup. It looks amazing man.

[@iTz_Cheshire]

Gon will forever be one of my favorite Tekken characters 😂 quick story: as I kid I would want to stay up late and play video games my step-dad would do challenges for me that if I could beat him in a fighting game I could stay up for another hour or 2 well Tekken 2 I might have gotten a few wins here and there but 90% of the time I was headed to bed, enter Tekken 3 and a unlocked Gon and I was a GOD! 😂😂😂 I button mashed my way to victory after learning how to fireball and fart and let's just say my stepdad never put Tekken 3 on for the challenge nights after that lmao and also Guilty Gear on the PS2 for some reason I was just naturally good at that game

[@MNSH]

8:44 Paul into deathfist then running tackle would give a chance for another deathfist while the opponent is rolling, its super easy on huge characters but you can pretty much consistently do it on anyone, it does like 90% damage Another good setup with Heihachi is that you launch opponent, then do df1,2 for juggle and do his unblockable which is homing, if they getup 4 heihachi will auto parry, you cant tech roll, all you can do is just lie down which is difficult to guess, and on huge characters , it is guaranteed while they are lying down.

[@davidparry5310]

@@jerzyzamieszka400 It would take rather more than that to make Dr B. or Gon work against a strong Jin or Ogre player who's giving it their all, I'd have thought. I know that Shirdel was able to pull it off in this tournament, but I suspect that that's because his opponents knew that he was joshing around (as we say in the north of England), which probably subconsciously led them to not pull out all the stops to beat him. Then again, maybe that's the great strength of these characters - the fact that picking them indicates to your opponent that you're not taking the game remotely seriously, discouraging them from putting too much effort into defeating you. In other words, perhaps the biggest asset of these characters is their sheer troll factor.

[@Shodan130]

gon still has counter play to flea in T3, in saying that yoshi still had an easy time against both Dr B and Gon doe due to moves like Db 3 and db1 being really good for hitting grounded or small characters.

@@Shodan130 Yeah but it was still big in favor of yoshi just jump while in pogo and from my experience still very hard for gon to win. With uf2 helicopter you can also escape gon cheese moves almost on the last frame like his while running attacks or his fireball. With quick evade b3+4 you can also evade those at the last frames other chars just cannot. Sad to see no yoshi in that tournament.

Can't believe how Arya was stupid enough not to ban Gon outright from the tournament. Unless maybe that was its purpose all along, to show how cheap Gon was.
