What is with people using easy controls?

[KING]

What is the purpose of people limiting themselves to 2 combos? Sure its easier, but it also way too easy for others to punish. Once I see you are using easy controls I already know you are limited to 2-3 combos. All I have to do is deny the first hit connecting & then that is all. Besides the fact you will not learn the game using that, it is also way too easy for anyone with a brain to counter so you will just keep losing.

Well, the game basically tells you "Use this to have an easier time"
So I guess people start using it, feel some success and stick with it.
I genuinely think it shouldn't be an option for Ranked tbh

imagine you bring tekken 8 to an office party
and everyone (non gamer) can enjoy doing cool stuff with ease

They can still whiff punish you and land those combos.

Some players switch it on and off during the battle I noticed.

Special Style is to get a taste of what a character can do, as well as single player content for characters you're unfamiliar with. To be remotely competitive with it you still need good awareness of when to push which buttons.

What is purpose of people in low ranks complaining about people in low ranks?

I never said what rank I was. If anything the point is that it’s too easy. I’ve lost 2 out of the last 30 ranked battles so far & I’m just getting started after beating the story. I’m already adept at Tekken games from previous games, won’t take me long to climb to where I belong. The point still stands, easy control scheme is too easy to beat & won’t teach people anything either

You don't need to say your rank because I've not seen a single assist users in my last 100 matches.

Then you aren’t paying attention properly then. If you want we can play later & I can bully you too. It’s not a problem

I started with easy controls because I'm an MK9 player and never played Tekken. After a few days I turned it off, since it had obvious limitations.

Easy controls have their place. In unranked spaces like lounge or quick match. Using it in ranked makes no sense at all since I don’t see how anyone can win with it

Maybe they don't want to win that hard, or it's a self-imposed challenge, or it's their preferred style.

Ranked isn't just about winning, it's about getting better tailored matches to your skill.

At lower levels it's easy but after that you really can't..... as you said, when people learn the autopilot strings, you get punished hard.
