Her gameplay is not bad at all for someone who's 92, she actually can hit decent combos.

Not to ruin the illusion, but Tekken 8 has a setting called Special Style which does a basic combo automatically pressing only one button. You can toggle the setting on and off any time by pressing L1. It's great that they were able to take advantage of that feature to run this fun tournament.

Ah, so it's kinda like Modern in SF6?

[–] troybot@midwest.social 2 points 2 months ago

Yes same concept. Takes out all the complex inputs so you can learn the basics.

She literally didn't look at the monitor. Just head down and pushed buttons. While her opponent seemed to have so much fun smashing :))

She needs to face Knee, Qudans, and the rest.
