Tekken Commentator, Central FL FGC Rep, TNS&ParagonFGC Team Member 2025 Tekken Commentary Reel: piped.video/watch?v=PgY5 PFP by @helloitsli

Orlando, FL
From CEO 2015 all the way until now, I've been enraptured with this community and the friends it gave me along the way. It was a great time talking to Alex about the road so far, check it out and get some Foxy Ball Knowledge!
New article is up! I recently had the pleasure of speaking with @Foxhoundfl to discuss his commentary journey, career ambitions, and everything in between. Medium: ahbeav01.medium.com/the-voic… RTs and article idea suggestions appreciated, as always.

So incredibly wholesome💜 Arslan is so used to everybody rooting against him and celebrating by himself on these stages, getting the "good games" handshakes from disappointed challengers... And then there's this beautiful friend right there ready to embrace him. Cinema!

Landon, Glaciating, Speedkicks, and Akash are not real people. "I hated t7, geese blah blah blah, game was bad competitively" But yall prefer constant power crushes, more guessing, and insanely forced situations because there's more "interaction" Yeah suck it from the back dog

Okay so which is it? Is Atif the best player or is the character easy? Let's not forget he was a monster of execution on Akuma in T7 as well. Atif can do this because he's that good. That's the bottom line.
Atif butt hitting taunt jet uppers like it's child's play 😏 and "someone" says that bryan is sooo hard to execute and he cant be top 1 😆

Apparently, when a character is in rage, they take a lot less chip damage from blocking the same moves as they would than if they were not in rage! I feel like this is something that I should have known already and maybe everyone already knows but it was news to me!

Yoshi KIN 2 1+2 oki adds either 22 or 24 damage to a combo depending on if the opponent wakes up (22) or does not (24). Notice there is no oki if you stay on the floor? How it pushes you away? In short: Treat this like T7 Moonsault Slayer oki. Just don't get up.

The String Theory Database for Tekken 8 has been updated for Lidia! Notice that most of her strings are NOT steppable, a few of them are delayable, but most are strictly as is. Prediction: Everybody is going to be abusing f+3, d+3,1,2, and 1,2,4 delay.

Evil Razer (B+1+2) currently does more chip damage to the opponent than Zafina does to herself This is without heat and without Anathema. Zafina players will say she "has to kill herself to use her good buttons", but they do more damage to the opponent even on block???

Heihachi's Tekken 8 String Avoidance! To note: Every delayable string except one is a hit confirmable string, which I think is extremely strong. Many of those same strings are counter hit launchers! P.S. Vid to come for you visual learners!

This is a huge personal blow to me. In my six years of commentary, I've never gotten to work with these two. Every time I apply for an event I cross my fingers they pick me and put me with the legends that made me love the game in the first place. Hope I didn't miss my chance.
Ladies & Lads, it was a good run. I will not be on commentary for the Tekken World Tour. I will still be around to work non-TWT events (hopefully) and support events where I can. Regardless of everything, I'm proud of what I've done over the years 💪 We changed the game.

Real talk you guys want Tekken to be coded like Virtua Fighter so bad it's not even funny Words like Linear and Tracking have concrete meanings, predictable outcomes, and you never say "Oh my god how did I get hit, that move's not supposed to track that way!" #PlayMoreVF
Replying to @Warning_I_Spam_
It is... I didn't say "linear both ways," did I? I said Linear, and it's to her weakside as well. Why are you stepping left vs. her when she's weak to ssr?

Commentary Tip for Nerds: Since #Tekken8 now has exactly 200 health and a visible combo damage counter, you can ALWAYS know exactly what percent the combo did! Just cut the damage in half! 100 damage combo? 50% 90 damage combo? 45% 120 damage? 60%!

When hit by the first two hits of handstand 3,3,3, from Eddy Gordo, you get hit for trying to duck the third hit, even though it's a high. This is similar to the bug they patched out recently for Yoshimitsu's DGF F1+2. #t8report
