@fightstickart simple, people generally don’t like losing and when there’s no team aspects or battle pass with numbers going up at the end of the match regardless of the outcome. It feelsbadman. If only they knew the satisfaction of putting in work and seeing true progress/improvement.

"Heat Burst Cancel" combos allows you to do Heat Dash combos that leave them airborne instead of the sliding knockdown state.

FINALLY FOUND A WAY TO HEATBURST WITH KING!! I knew it was possible ever since I found out Azucena could do it😭🥹 Maybe it ain’t that optimal but I for one think it’s a neat find! Note: after King is the Azucena heatburst tech I’m referring to! #T8_King #TEKKEN8

Things I’ve learned for T8 so far I didn’t know at launch. -Airborne attacks straight up beats counters/parries -you can do command inputs from Full Crouch (Drag qcb2, Steve qcf1/2, Yoshi cd1/2, etc) -Heat Smash beats armor but not Rage Art armor

I feel as though this has been around since the release of the console version of #Tekken7 . Sometimes when going for 1~2s or 2~1s etc. at times it will store the first input and give a 1+2. I've lost crucial games bc a RA comes out when trying to 1,2. 🤢 #tekken7_season2_report

This situation happens occasionally with walls in #Tekken . Some characters can manipulate the wall to create this situation. If you ever notice they're behind you during a normal wall splat. You tech. They in yo ass. Memba this. Could save your life.

Ohhh hell yeah frame data for #TEKKEN7 p-mode is amazing!! Imo, $4 is more than fair considering it’s almost a cheat sheet for quicker learning. Cheaper than buying a book-guide like back in the day. Also the tips are free and it basically tells you the punishes. Amazing.

#tk7s3report Crouching under a high string as they come out does not let some characters do FC moves until the string is finished. Some characters can do them immediately. I think both are wrong? It should treat it as a normal crouch and let you do FC stuff at normal timing.

Glitch combo. In heat if b+1+2 (or any other heat move) collides with a throw, you can do a combo pickup after heat dash (in this case, there are plenty more). Normally heat b+1+2~f only allows one grounded hit. #TEKKEN8
