Tekken 8 New Patch Notes

[CrimsonZako]

To summarize in short, we get...

Characters that were buffed: Azucena, Alisa, Hwoarang, JUN????, Kazuya, and King... I can't.

Characters that were nerfed: Claudio, Dragunov, Xiaoyu, KUMA AND PANDA????, LEROY????, YOSHIMITSU??? I can't.

Victor's grab is finally fixed.

What a joke of a balance patch. I can't.

Good nerf on yoshi. Gimmick characters have no rights to be that good.

Yeah. Flash made yoshi pretty insufferable to play against. Even knee said it was infuriating.

No buffs for the recycled Tekken 6/7 animations?

People complain that dev time and costs take too long and are too big, then also complain when assets are reused.
Why should the animations for those moves be remade?

Glad Yoshi got nerfed, watching people spam that brain dead reversal was insufferable and his combos were broken and lasted forever. He clearly had been very badly designed in T8

Azucena, Alisa, Jun, and King getting buffed is crazy lmao

[kiteless 凧無し]

Azucena is a brain dead easy mode character. If anything she needs nerfs

King also

Great characters to play if you have no execution or brain

No Xiaoyu nerfs there, just seems like some bug fixes

Rejoice Xiaoyu mains. She’s fine, don’t nerf her because of cry babies who don’t know the match up

Seeing Xiao main #4792 tell the person who not only had an omega ling himself but plays against arguably the best ling players on the planet on a regular basis to "learn the maaatch uuup" might be the funniest thing i saw in this community since "Shut up hella scrupman.".

You are hard stuck in the green ranks and don’t know how to deal with aop, just admit it.

Jun needs more buffs
I am a Jun main btw

[kiteless 凧無し]

Jun is fine

Her broken wall combo already got removed

Her most powerful tools hurt herself so there is a risk reward factor to her gameplay

She’s supposed to be a poke machine. People cry because smart juns know how to play safe. They just want everything to be unsafe. She’s not got crazy mix ups or hard to read shenanigans. Make everything unsafe and she would be trash

[ｃｏｏｌｄｏｗｎ]

yall are trippin. if u read the patch notes its more like another "bug fix" patch, where they're changing things that weren't intended rather than making them stronger or weaker on purpose.

You're acting like Knee and Arslan can't have bad takes just because of their status as players.

Do we need to remind you about Knee's takes on Akuma and how he's mid and all that? Or about Arslan's tweets when Lili got buffed in T7 of him saying how Lili is now better than Zafina and he's gonna play her in tournaments, which he never ended up doing and Lili despite the buffs didn't have any competitive presence.

Just because of their accolades doesn't mean they aren't human and can't have bad takes. If Xiaoyu is so busted as they claim, I'm sure she's gonna have massive playrates and success rate at the upcoming tournament and future tournaments until she's gonna get nerfed, right?

It’s all clickbait garbage, these pros churn out tier lists for money because people who can’t conjure up their own opinions take their word like some gospel

They’re not experts on all characters and anyone taking a tier list seriously that was produced less than 2 weeks after the games release, regardless of whoever made it, is getting played

It’s also fun to note how they both produced that tier list shortly after a high level Xiaoyu (yoredz) beat the crap out of Knee. Knee’s gameplay was actual trash, he was playing T8 like it’s T7, he played way too defensive and rarely used heat

This is a new game, T7 is not T8, so far knee and arslan haven’t won crap in T8 so I don’t care for their clickbait opinions, they mean nothing right now

[=\[P]/=]

someone told Knee to "learn Xiaoyu MU" is the most hilarious comment of Tekken life span

Watch him play yoredz. Knee played like crap and didn’t know how to deal with Lings heat tech

So yes he didn’t know the match up. You still think we’re playing 9 year old Tekken 7 or something? Even the pros need to learn a new game

Knee played like trash, he barely even used heat, still stuck in a Tekken 7 mindset. He clearly hasn’t adapted here
