I think Eddy is cool, but I feel like capoeira is at an unfortunate disadvantage because of how it’s implemented in Tekken. I think dance fighting can definitely work because you have characters like Manon or Elena who do it very well, but I think it works for them better than Eddy because their movesets are shorter and more expressive. Eddy’s moves are flashy, but they also look similar to one another, which makes it harder for people to understand which of the 80+ attacks he’s doing. Karate, Judo, Wing Chun, all of these are easier to read.

Man, I barely holding myself back from insulting you for such hard case of framing. Sorry, but spending less then a minute to say about MAIN reason why Eddy is hated feels like hard-coping. The fact that he is DLC IS the main reason for such hate. And having an option to "lab" him only in replays is not even close enough for redemption. With character like this you either give him obvious weakness that does not require labbing, or you DO NOT release him as a DLC. Or you actually give an access to him IN TRAINING. Otherwise he is an example of straight Pay2win character, and no measure of how weak he is on a PRO level compensate for it. And it's not about his unique style. In T7 people tolerated Eddy way more. And Hwo in T8 is also a pain in the neck to deal with, yet somehow people hate Eddy more, so maybe there's another decisive factor here, don't you think?

@@artsq1550I don’t think Eddy being DLC is the reason for the hate. Lidia is DLC and I haven’t seen anyone hate or even mention her after she released. Could it be the heat system? Either that or it could be the fact that stances in Tekken are stronger as a whole.

Not being able to lab characters without buying them is scummy and really hurts the online experience. Thats true for every fighting game with DLC characters, but matchup knowledge is particularly important in Tekken. They're basically telling the playerbase that they have to pay extra for a character they might not even care about, just so they won't get stomped by said character online.

What i hate the most is that Eddy is so wildly different from his OWN gameplay in previous games. So even if you do know the matchup is tag2 or 7, you sure don't know it now. And this is clearly intentional cause Lidia and Heihachi are the same way, like bamco is forcing you to buy them just to not get steamrolled by the scrubiest players using them.

Most of them just don't wanna do it.

I think the main part that adds to the frustration/hate for Eddie is ironically the lack of eddies in matchmaking. You 100% have to put the time in to learn the MU but because most people have to and are probably too busy learning the MU’s of the rest of the more common nightmare characters like Alisa, Ling etc. They can’t justify putting the time in and I’m kinda in the same boat. Why learn the Eddie MU when I only see one once a week when I could lab king who I see every time I play? Like in this video it really is easier to just complain like I’m kinda doin right now lol. Eddie, Shaheen, and Zafina are what I like to call Taxes Characters because it’s easier to just avoid in ranked at all times because how little of them there are.

I really wish they would give people the opportunity to lab the character out honestly, I feel like it would make a lot of us, Eddie players so much stronger and help us justify buffs because he really does need them especially in those higher ranks. Also, to help the people in the comment section if he ever goes in a handstand he does not have a low in that stance unless he has his stocks so just block high and jab him out of it and it'll make his life that much more difficult.

I love eddy this is my first tekken and he is my main. Ive tried him in older tekkens and hes a lot harder imo in those. A character like alisa i think is harder in 8 than in past games, just less to think about in older games. Now she has a lot more good stuff, shes better, but a little more complicated. Now i think eddy is less complicated than previous editions. But im new to tekken and havent been playing for as long so i wonder what other people think

Eddy in Tekken 7 was difficult to lab, and I do understand that paying to lab a character is very stupid and annoying, but in Tekken 8, he is so much easier to lab, and it is worth it because there is really not much difficult to understand about him. Take it from an Eddy main since Tekken 3, his movelist has shrunk like 45% to 50% and so many tricky things he had were gone. Both of his stances are so easy to understand and to beat. Handstand = Hit him with a quick low or low hitting mid. Relax = Stay out of range of the 50/50, that is literally it. Trust me, he is really nothing special, he looks cool, and has cool moves, but he is so much more riskier in this game than Tekken 7. Lab Eddy, don't complain.

I have to disagree with you, Eddy is stronger in this game than he was in t7, now he can guard when in negativa , he has +frames moves, his B1 4 3+4 is a counter hit combo that guarantees rlx 3+4 for more than 50 DMG out of a 13 frames move that tracks to 1 side, you can hit confirm B2 4 ,you can hit confirm b33 , his standing 4 has an extension. And he can actually sidestep, for me they really improved him , but he is still a little bit weak
@artembochkarev6285
@artembochkarev6285 Күн бұрын
What eddy lost from t7 1) Counter hits are gone. df2 counter hit 15 frame launcher - gone and now has worse tracking, ss2 counter hit launcher plus on block elbow completely removed, b33 is now confirmable yes but you cant really threat with finish string on block since its -15 and negativa now count as crouch so easy launch. 2) Evasive moves nerfed. db1+2 was save normal hit launcher, now only have guarantee throw. His sidestep move now -12 on block. ss3+4 now high with shitty hitboxes. All mid crushes on stances were removed completly, no damage scaling from stances. 3) Stances are butchered. You cant escape handstance fast, you can only escape into negativa. Handstance has zero mixup without charges (no low, grab is reactable). Handstane has zero mid crush moves. Negativa is now acts like crouching so all mids will hit you and launch you normally. You cant escape negativa fast like in t7. Negativa turned into hellsweep casino with risk reward highly not into eddy favour. In most cases simple backdash will completly neutralise negativa mix since hellsweep neads clean hit. 13 from negativa is not natural anymore. 4) Stances are butchered but game forces you into them. Running forces handstance, 10f punish forces negativa, 12f punish forces handstance, ff3 forces negative, uf4 forces negativa 5) Charges are useless. You dont have time to gather them and use in same round, it happens super rarely. The ways game want you to get charges are mid high string (usable only as whiff punish, but why i want to use it as such when i can use normal launcher, if you use it as it is - enemy ducks high and you die), using hellsweep from negativa (enemy block or use hopkick - you die), using mid mid from handstance (in which you dont wonna go anyway without charges, enemy has no reason to duck handstance without charges). Even concept of charges is forcing to enter handstance to mash mixup from it (both attacks stepable by the way and interruptible by fast attack, so all that hard work to farm to charges risking life actually gives you another shitty mixup locked behind stance). 6) A lot of moves eddy has times when he is in the air, hit burst in tekken 8 bound him during these moves and allows for full combo from enemy. Eddy is much weaker from t7, and the only way game wants you to play him is to mash mixes from negativa, forcing another mindless casino 8 50/50 playstyle which is boring and gives no satisfaction not for attacker and not for defending player.

Eddy being a match up check is the biggest problem in mind. Knowing what to mash on, what strings aren't while also dealing with his evasive panic buttons means both you and eddy are guessing. Its frustrating playing a character that forces a lot of checks and attempting to manage risk reward when the character has stuff like u/f 1, b3+4, and SS3+4.

it's a simple principle, a character's frustration level equals the ease of using it divided by the ease of countering it. while it's actual power level equals it's reward gained divided by it's risks taken assuming both players know the moveset. eddy is so easy to use that a bot pressing 3 can cimb ranked and so hard to counter that you have to dedicate hours to studying him specifically. but assuming both players know the character his tools aren't actually good. ergo he's both complete cancer and terrible at high level. designer skill issue if you ask me.

When Eddy gets you, either on counterhit or combos, he hurts like a mfer. Get a counterhit with Eddy and he does 50 to 55 damage with just 2 moves, that is almost a full combo. Eddy hurts, but will get punished just as hard if you are doing something wrong

Most opponents i beat are mostly from knowledge check or dont have low awareness the others are from whiff punish only and i had to play footsies and defensive if he was not a dlc character or if players are able to play him during practice there will be few hate on him tbh

Great video. I playing Eddy since start of Tekken 7 and NEVER feel that i get carried by him. I heard many stories about how op he was in the past, but never experienced that myself. At my level everyone knows how to beat my ass so i strangle a lot before achieved Tekken Emperor rank in T7 (still cannot escape blue ranks in T8). I agree about stupidity of Bandai Namco design that people can't lab DLC characters without buying them, but to be honest - it's just a pathetic excuse. Anyone have access to internet. After watching any random 7-9 minutes guide average player can easily improve his skills against 95% of Eddy spammers. This matchup really not that hard. Specially comparable to characters like Lin Xiaoyu, Yoshimitsu or Ley Wu Long. If somebody agree to play with me I'll be more than happy to help them. Not only with Eddy. I'm playing with 21 different characters in T8 and on pretty high level.

Eddy is actually punishable in so many ways and with that being said it takes skill to not set yourself to be punished with eddy. Eddy you can’t really lab him especially if someone is actually good with him .

In 7 he didn't feel too much of a threat. Now though it's just buttons on buttons. I hate guessing for my life plus it feels like he has more safety and fewer opportunities to punish but it could just be that those opportunities have changed/ moved.

I was going to buy Eddy when he came out, but genuinely the only thing that stopped me is the change in his animations, mainly his handstand stance. I know it’s something so silly but the way he holds his legs when in his handstand just doesn’t look as cool :/ Also I gather that his gameplay is quite different from his Tekken 7 playstyle.

I used to beat up a lot of Eddy players way back in older games. But in Tekken 8 he's like one of my most hated match ups. A lot of casuals lose cuz they don't know how to low parry to interupt strings. But why does Eddy have so much plus moves in Tekken 8 I can barely interupt him while he's changing stances anymore sometimes its even a trade. Not to mention that new hellsweep move.

Fam. I do agree labbing the Eddy matchup is what to do… But you haven’t once acknowledged that you can’t lab him without first BUYING him. I don’t want to spend money on a character just to not get cheesed. That’s the main issue.

Maybe it's because he's completely unrecognisable, doesn't really play like his traditional self, lost his identity as a legacy character and has a easy one button combo

OUT OF TOUCH ALERT. But seriously, he's annoying for the same reason people hate Hwoarang. Eddy / Hwoarang straight up require the enemy to know more about them than they need on the enemy (at most levels of play). They're just unfun to play against because of the unreasonable amount of homework & blender of abilities and frames to study. It doesn't mean they're OP, but people would way rather fight Paul.

@@Flintc08 learning yoshi isnt easy but for me its worth it since he's such a strong character, does great dmg, has tons of mix-ups & requires some pretty good execution to really get good with so why not just fully commit to him theres tons of characters that get played all too often & im not really a huge fan of that to be honest, everybody has a drag or a feng on standby, victor, & nina seem to get alot of attention too but for me i love yoshi i think he fits my playstyle like a glove

This probably the most positive why everyone hates character video😂 Eddy can be annoying but Eddy players themselves have it rough having to work very hard as his kit is extremely weak and mostly revolves around 50/50

For me its the fact he's brain dead easy knowledge check slop, while taking a toddlers level of skill to play I played an eddy who was melting my health bar, cuz i haven't fought that many eddy's and his animations are impossible to read, but i noticed he was just button mashing, so i decided to just mash jab, he immediately had no clue what to do, just eating my jab over and over, he gets so far by just mindlessly flow charting, and as a Bryan player whose game plan relies on spacing and precise counter hit timing, it sucks to fight against, obviously everyone in tekken 8 has knowledge checks and can be played in a mindless flow chart way, but eddy seems to just highlight this part of tekken to the extreme

just a friendly word of advice from a fellow KZbinr who has been making videos for nearly nine years and has not grown an inch and subscriber count defending a character like Eddie is going to make you lose subscribers because you're defending a character that everyone hates I understand where you're coming from and I agree with you but a majority of tech and fans are going to unsubscribe from your channel just because you're defending Eddie, it's said really 😢
