How to Bob

[Big Sloppie]

So this is basically my first Tekken game ever, and so far I got every part of my body beat by both AI and Online.

After I did the story (not even gonna touch Akuma), I'm planning on maining my main man Bob. Is there any tips on how to play him effectively and any great combos to do on him?

Ahh the joy of steam forums :)

To start things off, I'd suggest trying out the sample combos for Bob in practice. You can view all his moves and also pin the move you wanna practice to the top of the screen.

You can also watch the move being played out so as to get a feel for timing. Listen to the audio (beep, beep, beep) to get the rhythm down.

You can always Google Tekken 7 (insert character here) combos or moves etc. There a few decent pages/videos out there that will give you an idea.

Thanks for the help! I couldn't find anything on YouTube for him (yet) so I thought I'd ask here.

Googling probably should've been the first thing to do anyway.

I think there a bob guide by a YouTuber called King Jae. He's covered quite a few characters already. Worth s look.

There's also a pinned thread in this forum that some guy has posted combos for each character.

Failing that, watch some tournaments with Bob players and see what they do.

Bob has 3 realy good tools that i use online.
1+2 is his armored belly atack.
UP Forward 1+2 is the best move you can use to puih whifs at a range.
3+4 back or forward is his roll.
Forward roll can be flowed up by ether a 3 slide Sweap that can then combo in to standup 22.
Or 2 or 1 for a mid atack that punshes the oponent for expecting another sweap.
3 is also a high atack dueing roll but i havent found a good use for it.

Take in mind these are jsut some of the tools to let you open up your opinent or punish unsafe moves.

You still have to lern his strings louchers mixups and jugles.

Take mind of his strings that witch betwen mid and low these are good for punishing turtlers.

I like him but tbh his "character guides" are terrible. He basically goes through the movelist and gives a very basic explanation of what they do. i.e. "d/f-1, this is a mid" well I can see that. He does sometimes give good advices but the videos are just so boring to watch to me.

go to the tekken zaibatsu discord and check out the bob section. The pinned messages have the combos and everything I believe.
