Tekken 8 | PS5/XBOX SERIES X|S/STEAM | Clive Rosfield joins Tekken 8, Arrives Dec. 16

Cause Lidia like most of the cast is an EXTREME version of mostly safe 50-50 strings that transitions into another mixup if you guess wrong plus a safe fake demon paw where you have to eat on block and you have to keep guessing or the mixup starts over.. trash... Raven still plays like traditional tekken character even with all the annoying telaportimg.. he is still taking risks.. more mental frame advantage type of mixups using some disadvantage frames to mix your opponents up to the point where you could make your opponent swing when YOU wanted them to swing or not swing when you dont want them to swing so you can go for a more extensive mixups.. a lot more poking vs just pressure pressure pressure which this game promotes (if that makes sense kinda hard to explain without demonstrating in real time..

All of Lidias FF2 shyt loses to dikkjab unless they do the homing thing so I really don't think her mixup is notable at all outside of heat. Shes a huge knowledge check imo and you're far better than me so I'm pretty sure you know all this though.

I'm just curious because I was talking some OG players here and there are a mix of opinions on what real tekken is lol. Like for example you say Raven is real tekken just because he ultimately has meh frames and has to open you up with gimmicks and conditioning, when that essentially is the same thing Lidia has to do if you know the MU and she doesn't have the ability to do all the yolo teleport bs he has. Her pressure is also honestly ass, until shes in heat then she is a head ass character. Clive does have some forced 50/50 and it is corny but its really only off of a previous hit or a blocked WR2 which is very linear.


I play real Tekken anyway, Shaheen is the fairest character in the game

My mistake...correction.. On hit not on block with Lidia.. But even on block from her fake demon paw she goes into the auto stance where even you are guessing with the dikk jab cause like you said can hit them with the move that crushes lows which goes into another follow up attack which knocks you down and a new mixup starts from there All this shyt is modern Tekken.. maybe it's not a problem for Shaheen who can pokes into continuous stance pressure and cancels with stance into crouch mixups plus his bullshyt slide vortex mainimg Shaheen I can see why you think lidia mixup pressure is mid....none of this shyt is traditional Tekken which is why I pretty much only play Jack these days he's the only character that feels like I'm playing traditional Tekken..
Raven is like borderline traditional Tekken and modern Tekken.. when I match my Jack up vs him It feels like more of a traditional tekken set because it's mostly poking..

Traditional Tekken is when even if you get hit you don't have to eat another mixup unless the hit was counter hit
