I got second place at a local Tekken 8 bracket earlier this month! 💪🥹🤌🥈

I went 4-2!!! It was so fun! My adrenaline was pumping and i could feel the crowd was on my side! I felt like the silly-yet-cool underdog playing as the only Jack-8.

In my first match i played against a player named Dumple, a new player to the barcade we play at who used Heihachi. I won 2-1!

In my second match i played my old highschool buddy Michael Yells who the best Claudio I've ever known. They normally beat me, but in an upset i won 2-0! During this match i used a power-crush move to armor through a projectile in an interaction we'd both never seen!

In my third match i played against Firebird, a proud Feng player who i beat 2-1.

Afterwards was the fourth match, Winners Finals, and i fought against the soon-to-be champion, Acerbelli, who played Shaheen incredibly well. I lost 0-2 and was placed into Losers finals, but it was still a lot of fun.

For the fifth fight i fought Rusty Bucket, another Heihachi player that consistently used electric/just-frame inputs. For the last game against Rusty Bucket i used a unique grab that allows me to guarantee a follow-up attack to clinch the win!!! I beat them 3-0 and during this match there was a lot of laughs and cheering!!

Finally, during Grand Finals, i played against Acerbelli again. They were 5-0 to my 4-1 at this point. During this fight there were plenty of yelling and hype! I did a full-stage diving attack during one round, that's over 100 frames negative, and actually got a kill using it! But ultimately they got around my grab moves, power-crush, and punished me low often... It was a good game and they beat me fair n square.

I really enjoy learning and playing this game! I can't wait to play more with my friends!!! Good games y'all!

TEKKEN 8 Heat Poses

[vertebreakher]

I am very very new to Tekken but I vibe with the Jack series a lot. They're built to be these absolutely monstrous fighting machines that are legitimately terrifyingly good at learning fighting techniques. they hit hard and fast and they're really cool and their moveset is full of heavy impact blows. But also, they've got that charm of machine error to them. Doesn't matter how much you iron the kinks out a Jack will always pick up some stupid goofy looking technique or occasionally forget they need to maintain their own center of balance. So they inevitably turn into total goobers that flail around in excitement after winning or or turn into a stiff block and fall over. They're like those miniature Japanese wrestling robots given massive military budget.

And they're absolutely perfect for when you're a new player who doesn't know anything about what's going on and just needs to smash some buttons to find the cool shit, because if every attack you land feels like an accident there might as well be a few good jokes in there too.
