I just made a ten dollar bet with a competent, albeit rusty, Tekken 5 player. It's going down tomorrow night at a party.
I'm decent at Street Fighter, but have little experience with Tekken. Am I fucked? What do /v/
>pic related is my main, opponent will be Asuka
>ten dollars
are you good with your grab chaining or whatever I don't play tekken but I know he's a grappler.

If you don't know anything even the most basic movement will fuck you over.
Default walk speed is FUCKING HORRIBLE and spacing doesn't compare to SF as well
Wave dashing is the normal movement.
>Picking King first
You're pretty fucked because he takes a good understanding of the game to do anything.
Asuka is powerful in 5.
You're pretty fucked if he knows a basic combo as well
>>320102585
Change the game to Tekken 3 and pick Eddie and start mashing.
>>320102585
Go with Nina or Paul you'll have an easier time. You can parry most moves easily and both have good damage.

>mfw my mum beat me using Eddie in Tekken 3
>then also beat my friends
>>320103264
Damn anon, did you just start playing the game and this happened? Eddy mashers are the easiest to beat once you learn the play.
>>320102585
No, you're honestly fucked. You don't have enough time.
>>320102585
Should've gone with Lili, she's easy for a beginner to understand yet very capable in the hands of a professional
also the perfect waifu
>>320103442
Fighting games were never our thing.
>>320102765
Hes not a grappler and the "grab chains" are absolutely garbage
>>320103264
>>then also beat my friends
why do you toss us low balls
>>320102585
Pick steve and learn his infinite hit combo
>>320103578
Ah, well that makes sense.
Use a lot of low kicks. Fast with high damage. You can chip a few in between other moves.
>>320102585
Practice proper backdashing.
Pick Paul or Feng.
well look at it this way. 10 bucks ain't really a lot of money. Your buddy may even let you off just for treating to mcdonalds
>>320103595
oh my bad
>>320102585
>new to king
vs
>asuka with experience
Youre fucked mate
>>320106515
this.
even an average asuka is fucking annoying as shit in 5
>>320106515
>>320106515
Pretty much. For newbies, her combo strings are relatively hard to block and punish too.
OP, you should call off the fight or pick a character that's easy to play as.

>a cute milf will never beat you and your friends at a fighting game
why the fuck would you make a bet like that
His upright left-kick launch (it's the knee) into downright left-right-left kick combo is a pretty decent and easy combo that works in 5. I don't think the knee is safe though so space it out with the crouch-kick spam attack but interspersed with that built-in while-rising punch.
No reason why you can't switch characters though, maybe switch to Lili and spam kicks.
