Shoutouts to @huntercbomar working with us!
This week I made a quick video for @BattleLoungePDX for the EVO competition in Las Vegas! This is a great example for why I’m buying new mics this week!

We were never happy with our frame data list, especially on mobile. So we rebuilt it.
No more sideways scrolling
Tags for crushes, duckable and steppable strings

We've gotten a couple potential cheating reports from players about a certain Rapid 99...

Hi,
Its 4 buttons. If we are classifying that as 10/10 difficulty, i am open to discussing how to make that easier. Though, after some careful consideration, i do believe you could realistically lower that score by quite a bit.
Thanks. Dms are always open on discord.
On a scale 1 to 10 of how hard it is for normal tekken fan to setup bluespark, run it fast and legally - i give it a solid 10.
Thats why i was saying this game is not worth the effort. Performance is actually good(relative to what it does), if it runs bad for some- there isnt alot of room for gains left. Hopefully namco gonna rethink tekken 9 direction seeing all this effort by multiple devs just trying to bring real tekkens back with various projects.

I'd rather play the game where I lose 70% health for whiffing over the game where I lose 60% for guessing wrong after a situation I could barely avoid. I like both though 🫡

Really well said.
You have tons of agency in classic Tekken, even in disadvantageous situations.
If you make an incorrect play, you get blown up harder, but there were more choices to make than stand/duck/mash

This project might be the ONLY one with beginner setup instructions. If you do something out of order, there are pop-up prompts that tell you what step you need to do prior.
I'm illiterate in emulation setups..but it felt great knowing I could go in blind and still complete it

WE ARE OWED OVER $100,000 USD
by Saudi Arabian Esports team @AlQadsiahES!
@yagami2428, @THEJON07 & myself are owed over $100,000 USD between us, comprising of prize money, salaries and reimbursements extending as far back as mid-2024.
This total does not even include the many people from the fighting game department and other games, that have also experienced these persistent issues and who remain unpaid.
This situation is unacceptable and contributes to the increasingly poor reputation of the Saudi & Middle East based organizations.
If an @aramco owned organization, can fail so completely, then what hope is there for others?
Every possible effort has been made to resolve the matter directly with the team for unreasonably long period of time. Not a single amicle outcome was presented by the organization. We were only met with excuses, stalling tactics and complete disregard for the severity of the circumstances, eventuating in just being flat-out ignored.
Promises were made constantly but never kept and communication was near non-existent.
Not only did @AlQadsiahES not meet their payment obligations to the players and staff, but they were an organizational mess. Failing to properly support players in nearly every way possible, travel, visas, expenses, branding, social media.
Absolutely embarrasing.
One of the few outliers who always did their best for the players and staff he was responsible for, was @Haohken. We worked together closely, sharing the workload of over four different roles, but even he could only do so much when his hands were tied by the higher ups.
We continued performing our contractual obligations in good faith, whilst being beyond patient. Expecting improvement in the infrastructure of the teams, departments and the organization overall, as this was continually promised.
There's a lot more that is to be said regarding these circumstances, including threats and attempts to silence players from speaking out publicly regarding their treatment.
It's time that responsiblity is taken:

I was with @AlQadsiahES from 2024 to mid 2026 and have not received any prize money earned during that time, including @EWC_EN 2024/2025 prize money totalling over 60k alone. This is on top of all the other money they owe for reimbursements
Been repeatedly told that they are working on processing it and will pay everything soon, but at this point it has been far too long
This is unacceptable and you need to pay your players now @AlQadsiahES @Alqadsiah @aramco @AlQadsiahEN

This took a lot of time.
There are over 1700 team combinations in the game, but having basic combo theory + TA fillers and enders should help you figure your stuff out with your team. I'm still in the process of editing, but here you go

Seems like the people complaining about the damage in TTT2 are just forgetting to tag. At least that’s what I’ve seen out of a lot the high ranked TEKKEN 8 folks. People already struggle enough with resource management on a single character.
Tag sooner, so you survive the big combo, tag back in later with a healed character.

Bandai have responded to the outrage regarding the #GCG Area Finals. They have changed Amuro Ray to be a Top 256 prize but have not changed anything else. They confirm that prizing structure requires revision for next year, which I agree with, but the concerns arising this year must be dealt with first. This response does not fully address a single one of those concerns raised.
Notably, it does not even bring up the issues with competitive integrity which lie at the heart of the problem (whereby Japan are at a significant advantage compared to the rest of the world). It does not address the issues with needing to prepare for two formats nor the significant increase in variance that may knock many top players out of the tournament for a reason that is not acceptable at this high stage of play.
Making Amuro Ray a Top 256 prize does not address the issues in this note besides reducing the number of players who will effectively walk home empty handed to 50% rather than 80%.
This is not good enough. If these issues are not addressed decisively and immediately by making all Area Finals B03 SB and providing Amuro Ray as participation to EU and NA, the long-term health of the game and the Gundam brand in the West will be damaged. This announcement does nothing to restore the trust and goodwill that has been entirely spent over the last year, and Western players need to see our concerns taken seriously without delay.
You can do better Bandai, please do not let the hard work and passion of everyone involved in making GCG go to waste, and do not let down the players who have supported it so far.

バンダイは、#GCG エリア決勝戦をめぐる批判に対して回答しました。同社はアムロ・レイを「トップ256」の賞品に変更しましたが、それ以外の点については変更していません。同社は、来年の賞品構成の見直しが必要であることを認めており、私もそれに同意しますが、まずは今年生じた懸念に対処する必要があります。今回の回答は、提起された懸念事項のどれ一つとして十分に解決していません。
特に、問題の核心にある競技の公正性に関する問題（日本が世界の他の地域に比べて著しい優位性を持っている点）については、一切触れられていません。また、2つのフォーマットへの準備が必要となる問題や、このハイレベルなステージにおいて容認できない理由で多くのトッププレイヤーがトーナメントから脱落してしまう可能性のある、ばらつきの大幅な増加についても言及されていません。
アムロ・レイをトップ256の賞品にすることは、実質的に手ぶらで帰ることになるプレイヤーの割合を80％から50％に減らす以外に、この指摘で挙げられた問題の解決にはならない。
これでは不十分です。すべてのエリアファイナルをB03 SB形式とし、EUおよびNAの参加者全員にアムロ・レイを参加賞として提供することで、これらの問題を断固として直ちに解決しなければ、欧米におけるゲームおよび『ガンダム』ブランドの長期的な健全性は損なわれるでしょう。今回の発表は、この1年で完全に失われてしまった信頼と好意を回復するものではなく、欧米のプレイヤーは、私たちの懸念が遅滞なく真剣に受け止められることを求めています。
バンダイさん、もっと良い対応ができるはずです。GCGの制作に携わったすべての人々の努力と情熱を無駄にせず、これまで支えてきたプレイヤーたちを失望させないでください。
