Being new to Tekken, yeah I learned a lot. Knowing about king and his story throughout the series. Mad respect for the two men who do this for children, to them, King is a hero. Awesome work.

[@GamerThumbTV]

@@austinskywalker92 Some of the most iconic characters in the series right there!

[@austinskywalker92]

@@GamerThumbTV King is definitely one of them.

[@kendonl.taylor5111]

@GamerThumbTV As you know, King I, King II, Armor King I, and Armor King II are semi-canon.

[@The412Lol]

Learned so much. The tale of the Kings made me feel a lot of emotion.

[@ninjaferrel28DP]

King one of my favorite character in the fighting game because he is chad and only roar. i love him man i main him for that reason

[@Iceaiden]

can we all admit how much of a nice guy king 2 is, dude runs a orphanage, does charity, forgives his mentor killer, pays for his mentor brother surgery and his former enemies surgery, goes in front of the line a war to save the world, and is humble enough to give another person a chance in a rematch.

[@GamerThumbTV]

And he's an impenetrable wall of muscle 💪 a jack of all trades

[@AlexIn_ThaCosmos89]

Yes, and all communication with growling

[@nicksbrown1994]

Now, this is the most GOATED character of all time! I love King and his storyline in Tekken. It's truly a refreshing to take another story outside the Mishima family feud.

[@tyrantravealpha]

Im terrible playing as King, but King is consistently one of the hype in game characters to watch/play, and they have one of the best consistent storylines. I love the three way Rivalry between King II, Marduk and Armor King.

[@GamerThumbTV]

I'm not great with King either, but if you know how to use him he's a monster.

[@jalenikezeue4114]

The rock Would be perfect For The roll of King

[@SynysterProjects]

He was my favorite character originally when I played Tekken 1 as a kid, but little did I know I'd been playing him the wrong way all along 😂🤣🤣 been maining Kazuya since Tekken 4, but I did go back to King in Tekken 7 and got kinda good with his grapple combos, but sheesh! He is a very difficult character to learn!

[@levisamom5069]

Very appropriate considering pro wrestling is designed for crowd appeal

[@TheHeroExodus]

I'm surprised it didn't end with "that's the story of the kings of the Iron fist tournement"

[@MenmaKazama]

King and Armor King needs more screentime besides the Mishima's

[@Claudiustheimmortal]

27:53 no cap, still one of the greatest character endings of all time.

[@GamerThumbTV]

Always fun watching King slam opponents into the ground.

[@onigames7309]

So looking forward to more Tekken history videos.

[@Crim-kun]

maybe its the edible but king's tekken 2 ending was really truly heartwarming. cuz he's A DA. KING!!!!!

[@FoNgThOnG]

I was always a fan of King since the first game. I remember I was a wee lad at the local Walmart and it had a Tekken 3 machine at the entrance. I saw someone do his multi-throw chain and my mind was blown. From Tekken 1-2, I didn't even know what juggling was but when I got deep into Tekken 3 and learned about combos/juggling, it made my love for Fighting Games blossom. I'm super old now and my reaction time isn't what it used to be so I've pretty much stopped playing Fighting Games but I still love watching the story and cutscenes to them.

[@GamerThumbTV]

Tekken 3 is the one that brought in a lot of fans including myself. 1 and 2 were successful but 3 is where the series really exploded in popularity.

[@kawaiipotetu4047]

King is my favorite character in Tekken, this was amazing! Can't wait for the next of this series (and the Megaman timeline as well :D)

[@streetfame57]

Awesome! Can't wait for more in this series!

[@duncananderson2113]

Awesome, before Jin, King was my favorite character.

[@GamerThumbTV]

Visually he's one of the coolest Tekken fighters.

[@Kami.Asura000]

So King is basically like the scorpion of Tekken

[@GamerThumbTV]

Also one of the characters that's been in every single entry.

[@johnsummers2943]

Another great video, Fabian! As a King main to this day, since Tekken 1 & 2 in 1997, this Untold Legends entry made me very happy. 🐆

[@BubsArcadeFighters]

🐱 Great video with an amazing amount of lore and facts! I consider myself a Tekken fan and I had no idea that there are 2 Kings (King 1 & 2). I love the Mexican and Japanese wrestling influences on King. I look forward to more Tekken lore vids from your channel. 🥸👍

[@GamerThumbTV]

Much more coming! And there's 4 if you wanna count Armor King 1 and 2 also.

[@Jacobthebear246]

I've only played tekken 2 and 3 but I like the lore of the games

[@GamerThumbTV]

The Tekken lore is a huge appeal of the series for me.

WHAAAAAA-- You make Tekken content??? Dude, I watch the crap out of your RE, Metroid and Castlevania videos, can't believe I missed your Tekken ones!

[@GamerThumbTV]

To be fair this is the first Tekken video but it surely won't be the last

[@SynysterProjects]

@@GamerThumbTV well that would explain it 😂🤣🤣 I've sifted through your playlists about a dozen times and def would have noticed a "Tekken History" or "Untold Legends: Tekken" in there. Anyway, great video as usual, been an avid enjoyer of your content since your original RE Timeline series, keep up the good work, and thank you so much!

Wait.. Tekken 8 briefly became a Musou game during the story... Hell yeah!!!

That was one of the best portions of the game, simply awesome.

[@The412Lol]

@@GamerThumbTV I love it!

[@crimcrusader8459]

That sort of gameplay already existed for Tekken 6's Scenario Campaign as well as the Tekken Force mode in Tekken 3 and 4. Not to mention Devil Within for Tekken 5.

Tekken well Diversity everyone can understand jaguar noise.

[@KarlSturmgewher]

If we ever saw King II without his jaguar mask, he could have his Mexican-Spanish voice provided by Jesus "Alex" Mendoza.

[@GamerThumbTV]

Only time we've really seen a King face in game is the intro to Tekken 1 real quick.

[@crimcrusader8459]

Pity that I would have prefered for Kings I and II to actually speak for once.

[@Ty2595]

I'm always telling people how it's weird in Tekken everyone understands each other then they ask about king and I'm like yeah he's Mexican luchadore with a Jaguar mask that speaks Jaguar in Spanish what's so weird about that

[@GamerThumbTV]

No stranger than anything else the series does lol

[@senseipl5455]

They story will continue once Armor King 2 and marduk join tekken 8

[@slagarcrue85]

King didn’t retire he got killed by ogar.

[@eavionallen573]

Do one with Mishima family three generations

[@tomhibbert6486]

Will you ever do a street fighter history one day?

[@NitakuDragonsoul]

Yiu did miss his third inspiration Guinn from the novel Guinn Saga

[@GamerThumbTV]

Guin didn't really have anything to do with King though. Tiger Mask the wrestler was inspired by a 1968 manga called Tiger Mask, which in turn inspired King. So Guin was probably inspired by the same original source, explaining the similarity between the two.

[@Zerog65]

I will be honest i have played tekken aince 4 and not missed a one. I even went to see tekken blood vengeance in theaters. I absolutely hate 8 heat system. Idk why but it feels like it went from semi serious fighter to we straight anime (not a issue just not for me). I also am sick of bryan jak top 8 and rhem not buffing characters who need it. AK also not planned to be in the game really bothers me (also the fact rhey never buffed him in 7 which blew my mind (he was easily bottom 2)

[@GamerThumbTV]

Makes sense though, all these fighters copy one another and "special moves when a meter is full" are pretty much a standard now. Gives players that edge if they get beat up too hard lol.

[@CorbinLeonard-rp4et]

Man teekan 8 Is more better than street fighter 6 cause street fighter 6 has no story while teekan 8 has a story

[@logicallgaming]

Street Fighter 6 does have a story and I cant tell you if your serious or not on your claim. Because Tekkan is spelled wrong.

[@GamerThumbTV]

I'm a fan of both series but yea, Tekken 8 REALLY pushed the Tekken series forward and created one of its best entries in years. Cinematic stories should be a standard in fighting games now.
