Knee cant even win with Bryan

[Sirlion]

I think he's washed. I mean if you cant even win Combo Breaker whats the point? Also Arslan cant win with Nina... I think his time as a pro is over. They're too old for this game. They should both retire and make way for the youth. Clearly this is not the game for them.

What are you talking about? His time as a pro is over? He made it to the top 8... That's not pro enough for you?

Arslan made it to the finals... What is a pro? The only person winning? Only one guy?

Combo Breaker had 1,633 participants... What do you mean, make way for the youth? This is a fighting game. If his time is over, the youth should be able to move Knee out of the way, and he shouldn't be able to reach the top 8, in the winner's bracket on top of that...

According to your bad "logic", AK should have quit years ago.

Yeah since yesterday, I've come across astonishing post like 'I'm glad Knee didn't participate, lul' or 'Arslan ate dirt'. It's baffling why people make such ignorant comments when they don't even watch the tournaments..

Been watching Knee since t4 days.
I too had good reflexes by then (I was 21 in 2001) due to age.
Now in my forties can't react nowhere as fast as I could back then, obviously. It is nature.
I think Knee´s problem right now is the same as mine, simply speaking, age (he must be near his forties too).
You begin being very good at something you like when you're young, but eventually your skills decrease due to age. It is life.
Still, he is a god of tekken, but he struggles to defeat the younger generations like Arshlan, obvioulsy too.
Everything that has a beginning, has an end.
Still, I don't think he will fall without a storm in one of the following tournaments before he announces retirement.

[kiteless 凧無し]

Out of the 1633 entrants the vast majority are just no hoper locals who just enter for the lols

The number of active professional Tekken players who travel to tournaments is minuscule. When I see the same names over and over you know there simply isn’t enough money to incentivise people to pursue a professional Tekken career

So it’s pretty much a given that any big name in the community like Knee or Arslan is guaranteed to make it to the top 32

So many matches went down to the wire or just felt like anyone could have won. Arslan rode his luck to get to the final, there was at least 3 matches I saw where he barely won and could have been eliminated. It’s funny that he called this game a ‘casino’ because he sure got lucky to make it that far

Nobody is going to dominate this game. Expect different people to win every major tournament. The evo Japan champ didn’t even make top 8. There is no consistency with this game

[DA PWN3R 007]

The insane range of T8 moves and heat smashes neutralizes Bryan’s ability to turtle and play keepout as he did in the past. This means Knee is now forced to play more actively and make hard reads about his opponent whereas before he could chill once he had the lifelead.

Knee and Arslan don't have to win every frickin single time. They can lose from time to time. And upsets can happen. And it's not about Bryan or Nina either. BN has gotten very good at balancing their characters. It's why I rolled my eyes every time people were like "Kunimitsu carries" during the T7 days. Any character can win, and any character can lose.

This must be one of the dumbest thread ever created here and that is saying something. Like seriously, who in the right mind would make such a claim....

I assume you are being ironic :)

Yes. Only one person should be allowed to play tekken. All others have to stop playing. NOW!

NOOO I read on Reddit that if Knee doesnt win a major tournament he is done for also Bryan carries. I trust the REAL sources of information.
