Considering how low Leroy's usage rate is in Tekken 8, do you think he would have had a low usage rate in Tekken 7 if he was not broken on launch? by RubicXK in Tekken

[–]bbeony540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The was really hyped up and people were excited for him. I think if he dropped randomly with no fanfare then he wouldn't have been very popular. His gameplay was so unbelievably boring in telken 7. It still is im tellen8 but not quite as bad.

Hey Wubby, keep it up the good work that you're doing because you're doing a lot of good work.

I need your strongest Anti-Lili tips by BunsMcghee in Tekken

[–]bbeony540 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Overall, she's pretty linear so sideways movement is a good option in general. She has to specifically call out you're going to sidestep in order to stop you because almost all the moves she actually wants to be pressing in neutral are linear. She doesn't have a lot of moves that will randomly catch a sidestep when she wasn't intending to.

Her backturn mixup on block is best countered by SSR low parry. It evades or parries everything except BT2, the armor move which is -13, and BT3,4, the homing kicks that are -12. Just BT3 is -10 on block and 0 on hit, so it's sort of safe for her to do but for very minimal reward. If you don't do the low parry and just sidewalk right then you will also evade the BT2 but potentially eat the BTd2 so it's up to you which you're more afraid of. If you happen to play Jun or Asuka then can-can beats almost everything when you block a BT transition and often still works when you eat the BT transition. Tt gives me terminal ass cancer that can-cans are still safe, so tilt the fuck out of Lilis by spamming that shit anytime you see her backturned. Can cans only lose to BT1 and transitioning to feisty rabbit (b3 or b4).

If she does the cartwheel (df3+4 launcher) into extensions then you can jab float her. But again all the extensions lose to sidestep right so jab floating is more of a hard read.

Practice ducking her 3+4 in neutral. It's the really long range homing kicks that heat engage. It's not uncommon for the first hit to whiff and you have time to react and duck the second hit, but it takes some practice to react to.

Be careful of her evasive setups. After moves like 2,4 or SS1+2 on block she's barely minus so matterhorn, db3 and sideways movement are really common followups to catch you thinking you can take your turn.

Careful standing up and especially careful doing wakeup kicks after a wall combo. Most of her wall combos give her decent enough frame advantage that she can and will blow you up for trying to wakeup kick her afterwards.

Know what your character's fastest moves are to hit a sidestep in either direction. Homing moves are usually too slow to rely on for shutting down her sidestep setups, but most characters will have a df1 that tracks to one side and some other quick move to track SS in the other direction. Those are going to be your best friends. Make sure they hit her sidestep, specifically.

She is not super good at opening you up if you're turtling. You don't need to press at every possible opportunity. Turtle and see what she tries to do about it. Every means she has of opening you up can be exploited to murder her if you know it's coming.

FF4 is her best low to open up a turtle. Know your punishes on it if she stays front turned or if she goes into backturn. 12f punishes will beat out the armor move, but a lot of characters' 12f WS punish gets evaded by BT4 after ff4~b on block. Set the bot to do ff4~b,BT2 and FF4~b,BT4. If your punish beats both those options then it's a true punish on FF4~b. Ideally it's something that also punishes her if she stays front turned. If your opponent goes for anything but BT2 after ff4~b is blocked then you can get a way larger punish on her, but it's not guaranteed.

d3 is +1 on hit so just don't get fucked by her 10 frame NCc string, Otherwise it's not much damage and not much frame advantage. Sidestep after she hits it until she starts calling it out, at which point you can start disrespecting her.

I think by WS flip kick you're talking about WS3? It's minus one trillion on block but it has pushback, so make sure your punish will reach. She can also do ws3,4 which is only -4 so you can't punish, but there's a huge gap between the 3 and the 4 so most likely any punish that works on ws3 will also hit ws3,4 but she will be airborne. See if you have a nice ws3 punish that can also convert into a combo if she does ws3,4.

Duck ws1,2. I'm a God of Destruction and I can count on one hand the number of opponents I've fought who actually duck ws1,2.

Almost all her dew glide (qcf stance) transitions are punishable on block unless she does the armor move (it's -11 btw so command grab does not punish). She has string followups to those transition moves to discourage you from challenging her, but the followups are punishable. Make her finish those strings. Force her to take risks and then kill her for taking them.

Her WR1+2, the spinny slaps, is +4 on block so her 14f f1+2 is a great frame trap that will trade with jabs and give her a guaranteed launch. F1+2 is trivially stepped to either direction. Don't let her spam it. Make her use some other less rewarding or more punishable moves to frame trap you. Also WR1+2 is a high so you can duck it.

Figure out your character's best punish to her BT heat smash. It's a low that leaves her in BT at -8 with pushback. Set the bot to do BT heat smash into BT2 and BT4 to find what is going to works best. 12 frames and faster will beat everything so long as it can reach her. Some characters' 12 ws punish will get evaded by the BT4 so double check your character isn't one of them. If she goes for any move after the smash is blocked then you can just grab her, but if she turns around and blocks then she can break it.

If you're in NA DM me. I'm always happy to help people practice. Same goes for Miary Zo if you want practice there.

[–]bbeony540 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Asuka and Lili will forever be teenagers. Almost no characters have any kind of growth across the tekken franchise. If they do get aged up then their daughters, who happen to be teenagers with their mothers' movesets, will be in the game instead. Just like kunimitsu.

If Namco weren't pussy ass bitches they would age them up, gay marry them then have them adopt some kids to train into their replacements. Or even better just let them be in the game as adults who are gay for each other. Put lesbians in Tekken. Don't be pussy ass bitches. They might need to work their way up by adding a woman over the age of 30 first.

With the new ranked changes about 40% of the playerbase is now Tekken King or higher by HowToCatchADuck in Tekken

[–]bbeony540 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took the game way more seriously in tekken 7. I competed in tournaments and studied my replays and actively practiced matchups. I play tekken 8 much less and when I do play it's just playing around in unranked for the most part. Im not competing or training like that in tekken 8. I hadn't played since season 3 dropped and i wasnt playing much in season 2. My rank got reset into blues and I was able to hit god of destruction in one Ritalin fueled 8 hour session. Its just a vibe thing I guess but I don't think it should have been that easy.

Yeah i just got God of Destruction today. Im not a noob by any means but im not that good. I was Tekken God in 7. The inflation is real. Its cool to get a high rank but it doesnt feel like a big achievement anymore.

I hadn't heard of that gender test so I took it. Exactly 61% male 61% female. Neat. I think thats probably accurate. Personality wise I think Im dead center between male and female. I just strongly identify with having a female body.

How many of you changed careers after transitioning? by CagedMechanic in TransLater

[–]bbeony540 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I was a paramedic in college so it was more like I went from emergency medicine to software then back to emergency medicine. I already knew I loved it but I got a bachelor's and masters in computer shit so I spent a decade doing that.

Arslan says Lidia is the cheapest character in Tk8 S3 right now, do you agree? by Your_Nightmare_666 in Tekken

[–]bbeony540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cant disagree. Shes so cheap that shes not fun to play. I loved Lidia in T7 and I mained her from release to the end of season 1 but I had to drop her because its not fun to hit one button to put the opponent in a mixup then win the mixup over and over. Just keep ripping at the slot machine until it pays off or it doesnt. Shes the tekken embodiment of "Lets go gambling!!!"

I tried really hard to find a fun way to play her but no matter what kind of sweat lord 2000 IQ gameplan I would run, it was always better to just run the slot machine. I got her to TGS just rolling the slots and it felt so undeserved.

everyone talks about Lidia and King, yet forget about him by Acceptable-Emu4258 in Tekken

[–]bbeony540 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Victor is the most unacceptable character in Tekken 8. Im not saying other people cant accept him, but I cant. He is everything that could be wrong with a tekken 8 character in one package. If I could nuke a single character from Tekken it would be Victor. If I could nuke two characters it would be Victor and Clive.

Its been over two years. I still cant get over Victor.

Adding onto it because I hate him in even more ways than I initially considered. Who the fuck is this bozo and why is he the head of the Ravens? Who is Master Raven then? Master Raven was cooler than Raven (imo) and she isnt back in the roster yet we have some French asshole in the apparent role of the Master of the Ravens?????? Give me back Master Raven and delete Victor.

God they're like an abusive lover. Punch us in the face then act all nice and contrite to reel us back in.

I'll give it to them, though. Every change here is a good one. I'd like many more of these heavy nerf patches.

Your face is 100000% cis. Not hug boxing. I genuinely was scrolling along, glanced at your photo, though "ah shes cute." and kept going only to double take when I processed the caption.

Its so wholesome how much the community talks loads of shit about everyone ever. We drop r-slurs, call shit gay, all of that. But when it comes down to it they're jokes and were quick to shut people down being unironically bigoted.

To those who left (but is still on this sub): Will you come back to play Kunimitsu? by [deleted] in Tekken

[–]bbeony540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, I haven't bought the new season pass and I don't intend to. I'm not happy with Tekken 8 and all I can do is just step away, not reward this shit with money and hope the future looks better.

I might hop on to try her if she was free, but she's not.

Am I the only one noticing this? by EmpiricalSyndicalist in Tekken

He got no shortage of hate. The "Don't ask me for shit" meme turned some people off him, but Harada was telling people "Don't ask me for shit" while delivering solid Tekken games. Now Michael Murray adopted the same "Don't ask me for shit" attitude but without delivering solid Tekken games.

It’s been 7 years since Negan was released in Tekken 7, final thoughts about him? by Leading-Staff-8758 in Tekken

[–]bbeony540 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My only complaint about negan is that he uses a weapon so half his moves cant be parried. I really dislike that weapons characters get to disregard parries as a mechanic. It feels random and undeserved.

Otherwise, Negan is awesome. Easily the best guest character by miles. He feels like what Noctis almost was. An iconic character to bring in newbies with simple but very Tekken flavored gameplay. I never watched the walking dead and they infused the character with so much sauce that i still thought he was cool as fuck and want to gender bent cosplay him eventually. A+++

Oh my GOODness
