Spent three days playing it at a tourney myself. Three days was NOT enough for me. Youtube videos and streams do absolutely no justice compared to seeing T7FR from up close and personal playing among others
I’ve seen people compare those two on multiple occasions. I have no VF-experience, so I’d love to hear why they get compared.
Also T7 Leo is mad fun. The buff to b1,4 made the move completely nuts, and somehow they made her wall game even better in this game than in TTT2 since she has u3+4 and her rage drive (which seems utterly mediocre midscreen and completely silly). I can see why Japan considers her to be top tier.
Hmmm I was doing it then the tail Spin
It seemed a bit faster but
But next time I’ll do it after
Did not think of that at all!
I think maybe it might be me usually i get to play play on monitors without alot of lag but the past few days the one I been using has some on it
that might be why my timing was off. it usually takes me a few matches to start hitting it.
I wanna start using xiayou as well
all the characters seem fresh even old favorites
and akuma is hard as hell to hit out of demon flip
on stream you may ask why people dont but when you play a good one its a whole different story
and you MUST low parry low forward
if you dont he can cancel it into a whole bunch of bullshit
my friend was using him
I learned to low parry with the quickness lmfao
punishing -10 with jab fadc launch made me laugh and cry at the same time
*Game looks the least impressive of any of the Tekken installments at the time of their release. Nobody unfamiliar would turn their head to admire this game.
I still dont like the inclusion of Akuma he basically forces you to play a game that isnt Tekken but if it helps bring more people to the game then its worth it i guess
They use the same martial arts. Leo and Akira share a few similar moves but his look cooler. He’s a fast, hard hitting type with small combos and his moves look a lot more devastating (power behind them.) Akira also has a lot of high mobility moves. Some strings allow you to get to the side/back or flip them around. Back dash and have new options from that. Has multiple ways to break your guard and counter (pretty much the same as tekken but no chickens.)
VF gives you advantages from side & back. Bonus frames, more so from counter hits. His wall game can take advantage of those on top of wall bounce, guard break, his mobility moves (moving side ways to cut off and keep you at the wall) or get some frame advantage from side and go for bigger hits. Tekken has a much stronger oki game. So it’s really hard to compare them.
Both are great characters & quite different in playstyle though. It’d be cool to see a character big on mobility like that. It’s also why I wanted El Blaze. Acrobatics, wall jumps and stuff like a lightweight Luchadore. Armor King is awesome (more heavy weight.) Sadly he hasn’t been announced… ‘Yet.’
Seems like it. I’ll share anything noteworthy about the build I’m playing. Last build I played was the Lee/Miguel build and loading times were already miles better. Rematch in VS mode was instant, which is massive if any of you remember how long it took to rematch in Tag 2…
What does every Soul Calibur game since II have? A bright cathedral and a lava stage. They look relatively out of place in Tekken. Lava only ever appeared in Heihachi’s Tekken 2 ending. The only cathedrals have been decrepit (Tag, 5, Tag 2).
