TEKKEN 7 | Lounge

Dude, that’s a shit Katarina. Att the very least 444 22 gives you more wall carry and lets you go for oki. I’m pretty sure it deals more damage to. As with most characters, the mash one button combo is sub-optimal in every way.

I’m actually maining Bears now. Also, Katarina is unsafe as hell on pretty much everything. She is the epitome of high risk high reward. No decent launchers outside of CH, no good low pokes, linear as fuck offense.

She’s the fakest character in the game.

Her 4 is 11f and she’s on the upper part of the tier list
She’s definitely not the epitome of high risk high reward

Katarina is discribed as an “all or nothing character”.
High Risk, High Reward seems to be fitting.

Not all Good Character are safe on everything by default, this ain’t SF.

I dont want to burst your bubble but you still have to unlock elizas and most likely the new dlc chars stuff via tb mode…at least for now. Maybe its a oversight and will change in future updates.

Can you tell me how she is the epitome of high risk?

Whenever i read comments about certain strings in Tekken it says “hitconfirmable”, so i ofcourse try it out and it honestly feels impossible for me. I never played Ken in SFV but i tried hitconfirming his TC’s and i could do it, so i like to believe my reactions are atleast average or decent.

Nina u/f+2,1 for instance. I won’t be hitconfirming that in my life, ever.
I also won’t be playing in a way i would even focus on that regardless though so i’m not bothered by it, i just look for more contextual clues like whiff punishment, if they are crouching, startup of the opponent their move.

I dunno wat godly drags ur playing but what is he hitting u will that u deem 50/50?

I don’t hit confirm Nina’s uf2,1 either but there r moves u can hit confirm tho

Yeah there are strings with much larger windows than the example i gave ofcourse, but it almost seems any string which you can slightly delay is labeled as “hitconfirmable” lol.
It just threw me off.

Yeah, but the optimal Katarina combos are also not that easy to pull off in a real match and they give you like 5-10 more dmg.

Launcher into mashing 4 can give you easy 54-60 dmg and you can even hit that shit during lag!

I can launch his d2 with Kazuya, which is the equivalent of making him suck a dick. =>

Drag is strong and easy to play. He’s no SFV Rog though, because you can react and punish his stuff. I honestly think Drag is the character I have the highest winrate against online.

Some of the guides on Tekken Zaibatsu are retarded like that.
People expect you to have played the game for the past 20 years or some shit.

This game has basically given me absolutely no desire to even touch SFV again.

I’ve played 40+ online matches at this point with near negligible waiting times and not ONE SINGLE laggy match. I don’t even care that I’m a complete beginner and mostly getting my ass crushed, I’m having more fun with it than I ever did in V.

We kind of have to thank Capcom for fucking things up majorly with SFV.
People actually start looking into other games, because of that.

Matches like this , where you feel in full control of your character is why I play my main, even though he’s not consistent for me. I had to record it.

Granted my opponent probably was beginner but I usually don’t get this type of flow .

I just destroyed a button mashing Eddy.
Dude was doing nothing but whiffing buttons into relax stance, doing unsafe lows and mashing random shit in neutral.
Lost a couple, then turned it around and made him feel helpless.

Thank god I have a button that hits Eddy during relax stance and can combo on counterhit, and that I learned to WS+2 punish.

Shit felt so good that I went to Steam forums right after in the hopes of finding a Paul rage thread.

Trying Lili atm, quite like her.

Just made a King ragequit (I only get ragequitting opponents when playing Kat lol) and the screen froze.

Not the worst moment to freeze the screen imo. :blush:

What the fuck is even happening in this picture?
She has like, 3 legs and one is stuck in King’s belly.

I was confused but I think the leg you’re seeing is her jacket
