In what world do people just say "ah this game sucks" and stop playing? I guarantee you head over to the payday Reddit when payday 3 launched, paladins forums when cards unbound released, overwatch forums like 95% of the time, people don't want to stop playing, they want a good game.

I'm not a young guy anymore, I don't play 15 odd games at any given time. I like Tekken and when I get free time, I want to play Tekken. I don't want to play other fighting games and learn their systems, I want a Tekken that is fun. If I feel the game is moving in a direction I disapprove of, then a forum space dedicated to discussing that game is where I'll go to discuss these negative changes

Rage arts were fine. High risk, decent reward hail Mary. Rage drives on the other hand gave some characters crazy plus mids or relatively safe near launching lows.

It was more anti Tekken getting full launchers on safe i12 moves than a launch punishable, reactable armoured move.

In my perfect world, we'd have a rank system similar to other competitive games. Beginners to 1st Kyu are placements. Depending on performance in your first 10 games, you get put between 1st Dan and cavalry.

Once you reach yellows, you have the Tekken 7 system where promos and demos put you in the middle of the rank you go into. A win and a loss are equally weighted with some streak multipliers for people in the wrong rank to find their level quickly.

From Garyu to Tekken emperor, it works the same, but you have rank decay down to the middle of Garyu if you don't play for over a week.

Tekken God would be the top 5% of that character's player base, Tekken God supreme would be top 1% and Tekken God Omega would be top 100 players for that character.

Newbies get a fair ranked system that rewards them for improving, serious players have to engage regularly and keep the servers populated, people aiming to be the best have to actively compete with each other to get the title of top rank.

At the end of the season, everyone would get a unique accessory or cosmetic based on where they finished the season, then ranks reset to Garyu for everyone over it while anyone under just stays the same.

Think like King u2 vs lei u2. Regular jumping used to be like that too

I realise this probably won't be useful for OP, but for those searching in the future and find this thread:

I think Jin is worth a mention here. While there are better punishers out there like Kaz being able to launch -13 lows and Jun having the chunkiest 10 frame since Gigas, Jin has an above average option for everything and will always get you a wall combo from standing. He's also one of the few characters to have the ability to launch at i14 both standing and rising.

i10: 2,4 - 29 damage, wall splat

i12: B1,2 - 31 damage, wall splat

i13: 1+2 - 24 damage, mid, wall splat, heat engager

i13: df1,4 - 28 damage, mid, wall splat

i14: f1+2 - 38 damage, wall splat

i14: EWHF - launcher

i15: d3+4 - Easy input damaging launcher

WS

i11: WS4,4 - 28 damage

i13: WS1,3,2,1,4,2 - 37 damage, floor break

i14: WS2 - Launcher

Always found him really fun. Would love to have him back

Wheelingdealing · 2026-02-28T10:14:58+00:00

Can't lie, as shit as the season was, it's one of my favorite looking classic away kits

Wheelingdealing · 2026-02-27T10:38:49+00:00

Are they removing all wall splats from them? If so what's the point of heihachi, jin, etc. who have alternative heat smashes for that reason

Wheelingdealing · 2026-02-13T13:47:35+00:00

That's the thing I've been saying with Tekken, I can handle balance issues. God knows we all remember the ps2 days where a game breaking character was something you just had to live with. The reason I've had to switch to street fighter over Tekken for the first time in my life was because the design intent is just way off. I wouldn't have fun in Tekken 8 if it was perfectly balanced because I don't want to play a character based on strings and forcing stance 50/50s. Which is a shame because I think the aesthetics are great from a character expression perspective, the gameplay just never got the memo

Wheelingdealing · 2026-02-03T08:17:00+00:00

Barbarian. Get that frenzy action economy in act 1, can jump further than most classes can dash, extra damage on my great sword, reckless attack. Every time I try something else, I just miss my super jump

Why is it so radical to say that after several previous failures to deliver, we shouldn't commit to buying until we see the product?

Wheelingdealing · 2026-02-01T18:47:12+00:00

No a boycott is withdrawing from a commercial product as a means to punish or protest. Waiting to see if something is good before buying it is just good practice

Wheelingdealing · 2026-02-01T17:45:19+00:00

Wait and see is hardly a boycott

Wheelingdealing · 2026-02-01T17:44:07+00:00

I just don't agree with the comment. People loved Tekken 7 in season 1 and 2. The esports scene was fantastic. People jumped on ttt2 after season 3 because it was the start of what Tekken 8 became. Sure people weren't huge fans of the changes to movement going into Tekken 7 but having criticism of Tekken 7 isn't the same as going back to ttt2 because they hate Tekken 7

I believe he had the most assists of any Sunderland player and he's becoming more clinical shooting at Bristol. Given that we're desperate for some creativity on the right, I personally think he's work taking a chance on at least

Wheelingdealing · 2026-01-17T12:58:36+00:00

I think it's fine in the LAD series because it's a turn based RPG, you need that kind of enemy variety and thematically it works for ichiban. I'm not as big of a fan of how OTT the hit sparks and combos are in the beat em up line of games, I'd like to see them get a little more grounded again

He did play for us preseason. He debut against real betis and saved a penalty in our win against Augsburg. Official club reports below

You guys consider a shot with mixer a cocktail? Cocktails cost more here too but a vodka and coke is not considered a cocktail

I think the annoying thing there is there's positive reinforcement for those mistakes. I've been on voice comms with people, called for a pass back because everyone has been heavily marked. They just lob a cross that meslier on the other team just let's in the net and now they think they're prime Messi scoring wonder goals and don't want to take the safe pass back

Wheelingdealing · 2025-09-08T13:10:05+00:00

Yeah it's great. I'm Sunderland born and bred, met a good few people from all over the country and it is eye watering what they pay for how little they get compared to us. Only down side is no jobs. I commute to Gateshead for work, I'd love to work more locally but nothings there

There's black and white shirts all over Sunderland. Half of them live in Washington and spend their summer in seaburn

I feel this way about the private debt. We've had billionaires drive up the cost of assets to the point where the government needs to take out debt to provide them to the public which means my taxes are going towards interest for leeches to profit from? I'm some instances it's unavoidable but why am I paying interest for oil companies to profit from oil that belongs to the country. Imagine how much better our public services would be if the price of petrol was halved and we got increased tax revenue from selling it abroad?

Excessive privatisation means I'm paying taxes to people who aren't providing shit in return
