TEKKEN 8 - LEO PARRY GUIDE

[@ZeroMegu]

Legit didn’t even know B1+3 and B2+4 were different counters. I expected them to be the same counter just different inputs based on preference. I’ve only used B1+3. Huge help, thanks!!

[@patsilogg]

Yes, it was a change in tekken 8. Go get them bro! 😎

Questions are all attacks can be parrry including geat smash? Can u parry low attacks, launchers, and big attacks. New to tekken here and all i play is leo currently vanquisher rank. I can play her good now, now ive been practing parry lately with cpu ultra gard and was experimenting which are parryables. It feels like parry is not worth it cuz out of 10 attacks i can parry 1 or 2 and i get punished for it whenever i attempt to parry. If they gonna make it like that they should make all attacks parryable as parry time window is too small.

[@patsilogg]

not all can be parry. yeah sometimes it is not worth parrying with leo, very situational. if you get a hard read of what your enemy is going to do next, go for it. otherwise, do not press anything

[@aomafura3374]

Curious on the parry window for these

[@jasperslavone1275]

How would you describe Leo’s style? I’ve been maining Reina and enjoy the stance rushdown Mishima combo and want a secondary that plays differently. Would Leo be a good choice?

[@patsilogg]

I think Leo has the tools to be both aggressive and defensive. The character is well balanced for me.

[@simcard7083]

Leo is a character that has a bit of everything but he does not excel in a single point. His game play tends to be more frame trap, read, and smart play heavy to really do well. He doesn’t have tools he can really just throw out compared to the rest of the cast.

[@misellus3931]

leo is a really balanced character in terms of strengths, strong mids and good lows. you could play as a rush down character but definitely not as effectively as someone like reina, since KNK and BOK can be jab mashed, so stance pressure only really works if your opponent respects it, and leo doesnt have too mqny plus on block moves.

[@Arcanero]

Hi Patsilog! How can I learn this? When I press this every time in a fight, I'm always just getting hit =(

[@PillowSensei]

I for some reason expected Leo to get more damage considering they have a literal install

[@patsilogg]

I'm sure there are still more optimal combos for leo, I just haven't had enough time with the game 😂😅 too busy IRL. Better check ayorichie, madara521, fatalis for more quality Leo content 🙏

[@PillowSensei]

@@patsilogg nonono your content is quality for sure! You're showing me things I would never know and I appreciate that. Keep it up!
