Character of the Month #116: Tekknical

Post by CaptHayfever » Fri Jul 02, 2021 1:07 am

KAZUYA

Source series: Tekken
First appearance: Tekken (1994)

UNLOCKK: DLC

STATS:
Weight class - Very heavy
Falling class - Medium-fast
Running speed - Medium-slow
Jump height - Very Low
Character class - Bruiser, Gunner

SPECIALS:
B - Devil Blaster (source: Tekken 2)
Side B - Devil Fist (source: Tekken Tag Tournament)
Up B - Devil Wings (based on: Fly in Tekken 2)
Down B - Heaven's Door/Rage Drive (source: Tekken Tag Tournament/Tekken 7)
Command B - Spinning Demon to Left Hook (source: Tekken 3/Tekken 5)
Final Smash - Final Blaster (source: Tekken 7)

HOME COURSE: Mishima Dojo

TAUNT:
Up - Crossed arms
Side - Demon's Wrath
Down - Devil form

SPECIAL TRAITS/TRIVIA:
--Has altogether 15 more "normal" attackks than everyone else, including: an extra jab combo, an extra dash attackk, 4 diagonal tilts, 4 crouch attackks, a directional-input grab/throw, a backk tilt, & 2 attackks out of Crouch Dash (not counting Spinning Demon to Left Hookk, which uses the B button). This gives him the 2nd-largest moveset in the game, after Thehero (o hai Command Selection).
--Every single one of his moves has a fancy name, except for floor & ledge attackks.
--Victory screen has no fanfare & uses the Tekken announcer instead of Xander Mobus.
--Devil Wings does not trigger helpless fall.
--Rage (not the "Rage" mechanic everyone has, but Tekken-y Rage) will end after 3 missed Rage Drives, 1 successful Rage Drive, ~36% damage takken, or death. It can only activate once per stockk.
--During Rage, Rage Drive replaces not only Heaven's Door, but also normal Grab and Dragon Uppercut.
--Has "Tough Body" super armor (similar to Bowser's "Tough Guy" trait).

Very strange to play as. Much more fun than Ryu & Kken, but not as fun as Terry.
If you're having trouble dealing with him, takke advantage of his poor mobility (and/or spam projectiles).

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

I was about to be tedious and correct your typos but then I caught on.
