If you ever do come back to this series please do an episode on Xiaoyu! I've always been a 2d fighting game player but enjoyed watching her for years and learning tekken in t8 with her. From the outside looking in she seems like a character with an inherently strong kit so I'd be really interested to see how competitively she has been over the years
From what I can tell, Ling has never been an uber-top-tier but tends to be consistently feared by players of all skill levels because of her stances and evasion (with AOP being the most infamous tool in her kit). Even if the character doesn't see as much play as others, people have seemed to recognize from the jump that a good Ling can annihilate you if you're not prepared. I haven't kept up with the T8 meta in a hot minute, but IIRC she was considered very good at/around launch. She's also considered one of the best characters in T3 (her debut).
Thanks for this, I always liked Armor King's design, aesthetic and lore. Glad he had a great run in competitive. You never think he would be so good. This shows you that clones can be better then the original.
I got interested in tekken while playing Tekken 5 in 2017. I got to play Tekken 7 since then, seeing this kind of video makes me wish I got into tekken earlier. Great content!
Amazing vid as always, thank you for showing how characters in old Tekken's played I wanna see a video on Feng, I heard he was extremely OP in Tekken 5, but then completely fell off the radar competitively after that
I’d love to see a video on Lei someday! I’ve always found him to be one of the most fun characters to watch in high level play, even if he is a bit of a niche pick nowadays.
Awesome work! I'd honestly love to take a look at the Jacks next video, because they're my main and I would like to see some history regarding some fellow mains of theirs.
Great Vid! For the next one I would love to see Paul, because it seems like hes only recently been considered top tier in T7, with other games placing him mid or low, and I'd like to know why that is. Great work as always!
The pet names for the TTT1 combos + okizeme are as follows; Charge of the Black Company It Came from the Old School Kage Kyaku The Shadow Master Edge of Darkness Who be my Bitch (I need this in 4K, thank you) Quad Cross Blaster Go That Way Black Company's Pursuit No Quarter ZARCH DELUXE WITH SUPERSIZE BOOTY McSPANK Death From Above And the unforgettable Armor King-Devil juggle Synergy
Back then the community was so cool that it was customary to give staple juggles a distinctive name lol. I'm not kidding. Julia's launch, d+2, FC,df+4,3, df+4,2,b,f+1 (here seen at 9:56 courtesy of Unconkable's old rival, Slips) was called the Wonder Juggle/Combo lol
He was so good in TTT2 and even in tag1 where he shines the best. I was excited when he came out in Tekken and he wasn't th same as he was in tag but thanks to the buffs in season 4 he is solid as always.
Shirdel, are you compiling data from these history videos? Things like combo routes, Frame Data, Movelists .etc? Losing Tekken Zaibatsu is a big blow to knowledge of the older games, which I find fascinating. Even though some sites with information are still up (Avoiding the Puddle Tekken 6 frame data for one), I started saving those pages since one day they will also go down and the information might be lost.
Nice to see that the character has mostly been or at least solid in most games. I'm curious if Tekken 8's Armor King will fair just as well. If he shows up in it right away.
@@KyeCreates can u provide literally any pro or streamer who says this? Cause I at least know of superakouma, lil majin, kwiss, gen, tmmswe, knee, arslan Ash, anakin and qudans who consistently put him mid maybe low tier
I’m a Jin main, but I’m curious what Lei was like cause I’ve heard he’s mostly mid to bottom tier except for Tekken 3 Also a quick question: If you did a Devil Jin history, would Tekken 3 and Tekken Tag Jin be part of the history?
The TTT1 combo names are incredible. I wish I knew who came up with “ ZARCH DELUXE WITH SUPERSIZE BOOTY McSPANK” so I could shake their hand.
The 90's was peak in most things
I really love armor kings outfit in tag 1. It looks like he handcrafted it.
Oh i see, Armor King the second Tries to be strong just like his dead big brother
Great video as always 👍

Picked the corniest character for the series
Holy shit that tekken tag play was hype

i really love this video! you deserve more views and subs ong
I wanna see one on Lee sometime because he probably underwent the most improvement of a clone character over the course of the series.

Armor King 2 is you and the OG Armor King is the guy she tells you not to worry about.
I won a DR tourney my friends made with AK II, so satisfying
That clip of Unconkable 👀
He was so good in TTT2 and even in tag1 where he shines the best. I was excited when he came out in Tekken and he wasn't th same as he was in tag but thanks to the buffs in season 4 he is solid as always.
After season 4, what tier was he?
@@jenisia3600 Solid B-tier
lmao dude im from indonesia not india 23:00 but thanks for putting me in the list
Whoops, slip of the flag 🥴

Not sure what you meant to say, but if you meant the character has been "at least solid" in every game that appeared, that's not AK lol.
@@LeadblastHe was ass in only DR and T7 S3 c'mon man
Yo Shirdel, new sub here. I was just wondering if you have plans for doing this series for every character in Tekken? lol
If I don't die before I finish, absolutely LMAO
Would love to see one on hwaorang, I know he's always been mid tier but curious if anyone achieved anything with him
This is the story of every game with hwoarang th-cam.com/video/NpYEJx7PkWE/w-d-xo.html
What? In tag 2 he was a beast!
Look up a player called Speedkicks
Everyone is finally saying hwoarang is op. stop the cap bro.
@@KyeCreates can u provide literally any pro or streamer who says this? Cause I at least know of superakouma, lil majin, kwiss, gen, tmmswe, knee, arslan Ash, anakin and qudans who consistently put him mid maybe low tier
23:00 correction: SbyRazor is actually from Indonesia.
Where do you get the frame data on Tekken 2?
Where do you find tier lists for old tekken games?
I hope one day you will make a new video about this serie :)
Mokujin Pro Tekken History when
Can't wait for lili :)
I’m a Jin main, but I’m curious what Lei was like cause I’ve heard he’s mostly mid to bottom tier except for Tekken 3
Also a quick question: If you did a Devil Jin history, would Tekken 3 and Tekken Tag Jin be part of the history?
Fuck man there is a combo called who is my bitch damn I love how thay name stuff back then
Hope he returns in Season 2
The greatest FG character ever
