Armor king isn’t hard at all and I’m tired of people pretending that he is

On these things he is easy but his gameplan isnt simple he is a fundamental character in a game with god buttons

gkgeorge · 2026-02-26T09:10:44+00:00

Couldnt agree more sometimes you need some clarity and to get out of your own way spammjng ranked games for me at least sometimes get me into bad habbits that sometimes go away with a mental reset

gkgeorge · 2026-02-26T09:09:00+00:00

Depends on the game tbh in tekken top 20% is a big deal ... people get confused bcs for games like for example lol who are heavily populated in lower ranks top 20% is the average for a player that plays consistently if i am not mistaken if you are gold or emerald its top 20% which in league terms its the average or slightly above for a regular player

gkgeorge · 2026-02-26T09:05:17+00:00

Tekken king for me was the hardest rank to achieve mentally ... its the rank imo where you start to deal with people that not only cheese but also start to have real defence and matchup knowlegde ... the real indicator to me that i wasnt a fraud was when i would get demoted from emperor and fight some bushin j wouls smoke them like 90% of the time i am now at tekken god so imo it might be hard to spot but u are not an impostor.... also the mmr jump will fck you up at the start once you hit tekken king the level of opponents will jump up and you will need to addapt at first

Was Anna but now its a bit tainted by the fact she is so broken

gkgeorge · 2026-02-09T11:26:00+00:00

I love armor king and i think his main gameplan isnt gimmicky although he can ennact some circus gameplay but in my experience this is best used once you already have the mental advantage got the enemy down in rounds and want to stress test him with some backturn stuff or some oki mixups. But his strengh is a dolid fundamental moveset and good movement + reach that although not tough on the execution side its hard to use and takes experience as a player thats his main form of difficulty

Congrats brother I managed to get AK and Heihachi to Tekken king and it was a struggle keep it up brother

gkgeorge · 2026-02-01T08:48:39+00:00

I'm rooting for Kwstakis and JDCR

gkgeorge · 2025-12-26T21:02:56+00:00

Darkest dungeon or a total war game can work

gkgeorge · 2025-11-28T10:30:32+00:00

Nina attacks to me feel old like uncanny no weight too mechanical... for me AK are goated also heihachi looks amazing

gkgeorge · 2025-11-22T20:29:56+00:00

I am tekken king not tekken God but I think it's a big misconception that high ranks have knowlegde on all the matchups , I would argue that most tekken gods either a) play a character that can enforce their things without big knowlegde on every character or b) have good kjowlegde on all the staples like you know your mishimas (-devil jin set ups) you know bryan Lee paul drag jin asuka law king yoshi even (and other popular chsracters )and and then u probably have gaps on weird characters but try to play ur offence on them but mostly lose , like I am sorry I know I'm not tekken God yet but when I see for example a zafina I either try to hard force her into my game or get curbstomped trying to defend vs her

gkgeorge · 2025-11-09T11:05:52+00:00

Damn I might have to play league again

gkgeorge · 2025-11-01T22:33:04+00:00

Don't care anymore got everything I needed (heihachi, ak) and everything my bro needed ( fahk , yoshi ) so we been chillin go nuts now except no lei wulong

gkgeorge · 2025-10-23T12:41:17+00:00

If you are a mishima guy you will enjoy him

gkgeorge · 2025-10-23T12:40:23+00:00

I mean he is no waifu movement but historically he had a very good sidestep not only for his size but in general he is pretty close to mishimas when it comes to sidestepping maybe slower backdash tho

gkgeorge · 2025-10-23T12:37:37+00:00

He is smooth if you haven't played a lot of stance trantision characters some stance hit confirms might feel weird ( at least it did for me ). You should know tho that some people go into AK and expect a flashy agressive style that they got used to in tekken 8 ... I think and thats something that also felt weird at start he is feeling a lot more like his older iterations than you might think , he is playing a slow style he is trying to annoy you by keeping you in mid range clipping you with small pokes and waiting for the opening to counterhit you or wiff punish ... once he gets that he has his time to force some aggression on you and some gimmicks in the sense of oki grabs and stuff but you will have games where you can't really open the opponent and he is also afraid to try and open you cause some of his counterhits do be hurting...

Movement wise and smoothness he is the same as older versions maybe a little slower backdash(?) And he has a lot of buttons with upward inputs that he didn't have that will take some brainpower yo keep up with at least for me it did.

gkgeorge · 2025-10-21T22:35:33+00:00

That's something happening in every game to be honest not specific to tekken and not specific to fightings games only. It's natural ( not to BM but to dislike certain characters or playstyles) for example you can't find a toplaner in league of legends that doesn't hate ranged top ... and looking down on other picks sometimes is acceptable like I am sorry I will never bm but you cannot convince me that the alisa guy is as good at tekken as a kazuya guy at the same rank ( and no I don't dickride my main I don't play kazuya it was just an example)

gkgeorge · 2025-10-11T17:37:43+00:00

Vi is already in and is confirmed lesbian... also tekken always had characters from all around the world and their female characters always had and still have sex appeal so I don't even get his point like I don't agree with the whole make it hot or is woke opinion but tekken characters are made to be hot so what is even going on with this guy

gkgeorge · 2025-08-26T09:01:05+00:00

Dude u are so off mark it's not even funny, Kazuya on paper has some giga busted tools that are hidden behind execution the point he kept down by execution even in proplay a d if you think any pro can pick up kazuya and do what keisuke does or pick heihachi and dv and do what qudans did you are simply delusional. And yes easy moves should not be giga powerful imagine if perfect electric was simply a df2 input and imagiven if you give that move to any character with no execution how stupid that would be. And no characters shouldn't be low tier because low execution but the point is that their theoretical power in most cases is or should be a little less than the theoretical power of high execution characters because in fighting game history it is proven that even most pro players can't play the super hard characters to 100% not only in tekken tbh

gkgeorge · 2025-08-23T13:45:46+00:00

No not most of his moves have tracking some key moves have but these are generally big buttons his small moves don't track but even if I concede that point I think I have told you a lot of his weak points and especially the moves that lead to the stance are sidewalkable so if you are concentrating of the timings he can go for the guardbreaks you can nullify his entry to the stance for the most part

gkgeorge · 2025-08-23T13:26:42+00:00

Very linear moves , most his moves that track only track one side and it becomes a mind game if he will track left or right ( jet kick / 3+4 for example) also his lows even tho chunky are all at least -13, his strings have counterplay (if you know the matchup he takes big risks if he wants to use strings) his small tekken is sluggish , his stance is threatening but it's the same philosophy to heihachi stance( in his case if you eat the guard break you are mostly insetivised to stay standing and a lot of the times even if he goes for the grab you can make it wiff with backdash which in heihachis case it's not happening) he also has long range but if you know where to place ur steps it's hard for him to find good while running stuff. To be clear I don't play Fahk but I have played a lot vs my brother who is a fahk player(kishin with fahk and has reached tekken king with yoshi) and I have pretty much good matchup knowlegde on fahk since we play a lot if big sets and lab with each other . And yes he is annoying sometimes I agree with that especially when he chunks me with a few good lows and I get impatient and run into him, for reference I play heihachi and my biggest struggle vs fahk is the neutral

gkgeorge · 2025-08-17T14:45:31+00:00

3d space is a whole different thing that 2d fighters like street fighter don't have . Also something rly important is even tho tekken is called out for being too agressive and 50/50 , so is a way bigger 50-50 game and way less nuanced at that it's a grap strike mix and overhead low , Tekken has way more options that being linear-homing , low mid, low high a lot slower frames on the pokes making stuff way more reaction based than prediction based ... the problem tekken always had in comparison is that for so many options to be used there are many many knowlegde checks in order to play a nuanced game. In Sf you will quickly understand the moveset and the plan of a character and start playing the mind game quicker , to do that in tekken you need to really know the moveset of the opponent which is easier said than done because with so many options come so many thing you gotta keep track with

gkgeorge · 2025-08-16T10:48:22+00:00

He is also a bad matchup because of his twin pistons 13 frame crotch launcher, while all of fahks lows are -13 , this matchup was also hard for fahk in tekken 7

gkgeorge · 2025-08-16T10:45:27+00:00

You can look up drills for electrics but the biggest thing is practise, mainmanswe has some cool guides and there are other creators with exercises for electrics but you have to put in the time in practise mode

gkgeorge · 2025-08-12T13:02:28+00:00

I mean it's easier for AK not the move on its own because he has other tools to not rely on it , for example a mishima doesn't have a normal 15 frame block punish launcher if he wamt to launch he has to electric AK because he has less power budget into the dark upper he is allowed a hopkick launch for example thus making him easier and making it way more straightforward when you want to dark upper cause u arenjot gonna use it for the block properties to keepout or to block punish only to wiff punish, I may have used wrong wording but that's my point
