    'Cigarette' is live! I think this is my favorite Badsleeper production to date. It honors some of my 80's heroes like Yazoo, Madonna + New Order. I hope you enjoy it. We are only getting stronger! Twitch stream later tonight. Happy Monday 😎🙌 [Links below]

    Your ancient fighting game ancestors played games that were 10x more unbalanced and managed to have 10x more fun than you. Step up your game, kids!

    The “bloated” move lists in Tekken are intrinsically part of what makes the game interesting. Managing your mental stack and striving to be ready for anything. Overloading your opponent’s mental stack. Finding novel ways to apply moves that people consider “useless”. Etc.

    Strong players figure out what is good and exploit it. Weak players figure out every good move their character is missing.

    Friends, as you continue to play Tekken 8 nonstop over this weekend, I only ask one thing: Don’t make that damn tierlist you’re already thinking about! I don’t want it. Nobody asking for it. NOOO! ✋ If you fail this task I’m screenshotting and putting you on blast in 3 months

    The “T7 was boring” revisionist history needs to be stopped!

    I understand there is much to consider. But irritating to see the official statement say “[we] followed the official rules.” If this were the case an “ineligible player” would not have advanced thru 5 rounds of a Master event and sent numerous TWT hopefuls to Losers. Not cool.

    I want to highlight the incredible graciousness and understanding with which JDCR responded to this awful situation we were faced with. He inspires me as a Tekken player, but today he inspired me as a human being. A world champion and a truly wonderful person. Thank you, Hyunjin

    Safe charge-able RA is unambiguously one of the worst design decisions in the game. It is completely unintuitive for new players and a burdensome thing for high level players to have to take into consideration. I don’t know why it exists.

    I think 1 1/2 years of torture are enough, pls remove the charge of the RA, @DustyEel did the correct counterplay #T8_report

    Thinking in terms of tiers all the time can be so damn harmful. Somewhere along the line people stopped thinking about “does this character serve MY playstyle? Does this character have tools that I PERSONALLY value?” So many are constantly trying to put the characters on some

    Your "main character" is the one who you know the most situations with, who you have the highest level of preparation with, the most match-up knowledge, etc. Building these skills takes a tremendous amount of work. If you can declare a "new main" in a day, it is a a bad sign!

    I don’t believe in tiers. I just believe in me.
