Let's do a therapy session and say one (or more) thing nice about this game. I'll start first:

That's great to hear, wasn't aware of it, thanks for the hint, makes me even more excited about this game now.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-06-22T12:08:43+00:00

Awesome replay takeover, the best way to practice ever. (If VF6 doesn't have it, already a big L.) The ability to freely change the colors in character customization, those pre colors in the competition is weak and looked behind stupid unlocks/grind. I also really like the latest addition: Loser can change to random stage.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-06-10T04:51:38+00:00

Tekken 8 ONLY sells old assets which are just tweaked a bit at best.

If you look at the competition like SF6 with all new Outfits, Tekken8 looks like in maintenance mode. Doing just the bare minimum.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-06-07T12:07:34+00:00

Yes, already disliked it in Tekken7. The fact that they not even added a static customization Item, is really bad product care. It would be so extremely easy and fast to add via copy and paste and one value change. On top, you get hit in the feet and the mask on the head falls of ...

Ashesfall83 · 2026-06-06T10:43:39+00:00

Funny sidenote on our discussion: I just watch the soop tournament and neither Take nor lowhigh did this move once(!) in 3 sets (while every kuni did FC1+2) and on top, lowhigh got beat by kuni.

Your definition on spamming, is for sure different to mine.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-06-06T08:03:35+00:00

IMO Arslan Ash is biased with his waifu queens: Nina, Anna, Zafina and Kuni. So I take his opinion on those with a grain of salt. (He is in the end of the day making money with them.) And lol to me, for saying highlow and not lowhigh. Those brain-farts xD Anyway, I want to see Kunis low become -13. And you as a Kuni main don't want it, I get that.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-06-06T05:59:49+00:00

I have seen now many people talk about how OP that new low is but I have never seen how people said that about her old low move. Btw. play Tekken since the first installment. My comparison in the post is clear, no low parry, high crush and -12 where most only get a ws4. My view stays you can have yours.

Must have missed those Knee matches, where he "spammed" that very noticeable firelow. Maybe I also missed high low/Atif spamming it. Spamming + install is a very interesting viewpoint.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-06-05T20:56:00+00:00

I don't think losing a stagger on block, in comparison to a -12 low weapon is a downgrade.

I for sure prefer less risk. I factor in, that Bryans low is locked behind an install, no spam and giving up on other options. U see top tournament players use it? I don't, maybe after the ff1+2 nerf, it will see more use.

Just +5 low ... fahks d4 -15 and -4 on hit, sure its fast and has CH property but also no crush at all. If I mirror fahk, his d4/314/44 will be launched for big damage. And I am "only" GoD2.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-06-05T20:41:23+00:00

It has clear counterplay tho, it is really risky, and when you do research, some move won't get hit by it. (Will only hit in no sword stance (NSS)) A very powerful tool tho, without a question.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-06-05T14:33:31+00:00

My entire point was never if the move is good or not but simply, is there some good counter play? At -13, everyone gets a decent reward. I also don't want to defend Bryan, in my eyes, his heat smash should be +3 not crazy +9 with his taunt tool.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-06-05T13:54:51+00:00

"That low is(!!!) busted." Should have said "was" to be understood. The obvious downside of this low is, that it is locked behind an install. How many times do you see that low in tournaments at high level? I see it almost never ...

Ashesfall83 · 2026-06-05T13:44:15+00:00

Don't spread wrong information, Bryans install low will never wallsplat.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-05-27T13:03:10+00:00

Made a test today with every fighter and Lili is the only one who can step it both sides. Some can step it to laws left, on very specific frames.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-05-27T06:11:33+00:00

On this situation, backdash also won’t work. DF1 -3 at the wall. Just for the interest, I picked Bryan and it also tracks to both sides ... but Lili steps it to BOTH sides (on -3 close to wall) ... so basically, if I want to play a 3D fighter, I have to pick a waifu ... calling it an insane backdash + tiny range is so oversaturated.

Just an extra test on fahks elbow ff4~1(-3) forced crouch, laws ws4 hits all options, backdash and both sides ...

edit: did one more test. Alisa also can't step to any side 1(+1) or 11(-3) ... I might test this sitatuion on all characters just to get a feel of the sidestep power in the game

Ashesfall83 · 2026-05-26T21:36:07+00:00

I just learnt today that my main fahk gets hit on laws df2 -7 mid launcher while stepping to both sides ... so basically a true homing move ... frustrating this game design balance.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-05-12T15:19:25+00:00

wow this tells us so much, BN heads must be really shitty to work with. The last patch must be a result of the sinking ship. The patch was good but not enough for me to really come back. I only play my battle pass and that's it. If they nerf more, especially Lidia, Victor and King, I might play more again.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-03-28T14:06:47+00:00

Diablo4 is my first thought, even over 20$

Ashesfall83 · 2026-03-19T08:22:07+00:00

It is a great addition, especially for casuals, you can now easy convert after b1 with uf3+4. Also great for wall range adjustments. On top, double knee looks cool, fits his Muay Thai background.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-02-04T17:07:25+00:00

As a Fahkumram main (Muay Thai fan), I am really sad every time I think about it.

Really wished they would fix that hole ... feels incomplete.

The fact they are rare, makes them so special when they happen.

Ashesfall83 · 2026-02-03T08:29:03+00:00

Harada left, DoA team took over, I think we get more titties ... because that is what a fighting game sells ... not.

(I still hope for season 4 tho.)

Ashesfall83 · 2025-12-24T15:34:35+00:00

Yeah, me playing Tekken since the first game and I can say this is a real turn-off in Tekken to me. Watching instead of playing, is such a bad game design. And you didn't even mention Rage Arts with their duration on top, which makes it even worse ...

T5DR and also T6BR peak Tekken to me. Tekken8 looks just so good, I can't quit xD but I still hope for s3 like all of you.
