They cut Ganryu as well right?

She’s the successor of Ganryu, a young teen version who idolizes him

Hope they make her a bit thick tho, a skinny sumo would be kinda weird

Interested in the 2 newbies

I bet Mokujin will be replaced by a new __jin

Doubt it since this leak came out in June 2016 while they both came out early 2015

So the remaining characters are Julia, Lei, Anna, Mokujin, and the 2 newbies. Seeing as there are still 2 slots left after them, I think we’ll get 2 more too.

So does this mean the console version is getting some additions to the roster as well? Or are console and arcade versions going to be on par this time around?

Im pretty sure harada confirmed awhile ago that both would have parity, especially since the arcade version is connected to the internet now. Btw is that leak real or just a rumor?

It wasn’t specified, but seeing how this tweet came before the characters on it were revealed, it looks real.

Stuff that got posted on the local FGC FB-group: Knee’s current tier T7:FR list, (this link might not work =( ) and a basic character overview of the current cast.

Character usage data for Japan for the month of December:

*Gigas occupies the last page

*Balance is arguably terrible compared to last 3 Tekken releases (DR, BR, TTT2). Tier lists are all over the place with only agreements on a few at the top.

I don’t think that character usage = tier list

They are not directly related. However, the current tier lists and first hand accounts tend to be contradicting. Some notable players having Jack at the bottom tier all by himself makes no sense when tournament players have excelled with him, while Gigas’ attacks often have a 50/50 chance of connecting and damage output is subpar and he is placed higher. Or in the case of characters like Katarina and Shaheen, where spam is no longer good enough to go forward and few tools exist to play defensively. Meanwhile shenanigans like Ling’s nearly invincible rolls and Claudio’s fast, mid crushing hopkick are downplayed. Not to mention that strong characters like Hwoarang, Feng, Paul, Steve, and Bryan are often placed middle of the pack. Akuma is downplayed as well due to a few nerfs to his mixups despite his damage output potential staying the same and those tools staying 100% intact.

A lot of players have varying tier list but how does that equate to the balance being terrible?

A lot of the new characters have been reduced to shit after FR update, others like Gigas were shit already. A lot of characters that used to be competitive like Nina and Lars have zero representation in tournaments. Some like Paul, King and Ling are crazy strong in practically every category and only lose due to sidestep or some mid crush and rage art shenanigans.

Whatever. Leo seems baws, that’s all I care about.

can you guys recommend me some websites/forums for T7 ?

some introduction videos which explains the system ect would be nice too.

Here is one of the best series of tutorials for Tekken basics:

There’s the Kor’s Tekken Academy group on Facebook

I think some of the lowest played characters are a bit on the lower end of the tier spectrum. Might not be a 100%, but high tiers are usually heavily played in Asia and if a character isn’t getting used much after various nerfs I think it may be telling. That being said the balance isn’t final on the game so who knows what the launch roster will be like move and frame data wise.

The Rainmaker outfit for King as well as more items from the NJPW partnership with Tekken 7. It’s nothing much but I sure as hell like that there’s Bullet Club shirts in game.

they even gave him a costume specific rage art…nice.
how does the whole custom system work in the arcades? do you have to buy them seperaterly or
do they give them out for free to everyone?

what was the event which start on the 4th this month in which we will get most likely the
release date anouncement?
