T6BR tier list

[Pocky-Yoshi]

Marduk unleash is getting nearer.

Well, when Tekken 6 comes out, Beware of Pocky Yoshi.

Nina is same-y with new moves. Anna feels like Nina, but has a different style/set of moves. She's more like a female... Lee? Nina is still the pitbull/rushdown and mixup queen.

Crouch dashing has always been character-specific. I'd hate to see somebody like Steve with a crouch dash, lol. Going backwards has always been bdc (backdash cancelling) and character-specific stance-based backdash cancels.

Meh, it'll have to do. Wish throws seemed more useful as well, but it wouldn't be Tekken otherwise, would it? O_o

They are actually. AFAIK (and it does seem this way based on all the games I've put into the arcade BR), you only have one input to defend against throws. So if the throw used can only be broken by pressing both punches, you can't slide 1~2 in the hope of escaping throws with a 1 break or a 2 break and a 1+2 break. Doing so would only register 1 as your throw break attempt, meaning against a 1+2 throw, you're screwed.

Likewise, if you do a canned string (e.g. 123), and the opponent throws you as you press the 3, the 3 becomes your throw break input. Which means you're screwed too.

In fact, King's dangerous because of this, since he can buffer his iSW throw with a standing attack, as well as the giant swing, but both throws require a different break input.

It ain't VF, but it seems like it would do.

Tekken should never be like VF. VF is VF. Tekken is Tekken. SC is SC. The variety is what makes it all fun.
