I've literally got tears in my eyes from laughing. Why are Eddy mashing combos sicker than anybody else's. That was my strategy with bro in Tekken 3 and I really thought I was doing something
When I was a child my first intro to Tekken was the T3 demo that came on a psx demo disc, it only had Xiaoyu and Eddy. After months of playing that demo I got pretty good with Eddy, and every time I visited a friend who had the game I would play him and get shouted at for playing the masher character. So he switched to Eddy to beat me at my own game, only to realize that I knew the range of his sweeps and flips and could just stay outside of his reach and punish when he was vulnerable. It was maybe the most satisfying win I've experienced.
"super" is absolutely allowed in a mash situation. the amount of times i would just spam fireball input with punches AND kicks as a kid back in the day was insane. like, ok, ill either normal cuz i fucked up entirely, ill fireball cuz it took the punch, or ill do some other special cuz it took the kick. maybe ill super if i have bar, which i never really paid attention to how can they know what youre gonna do when you dont even know?
Enjoyed your moves around the 17:20 mark. I used to use Eddy a lot back in the day. And yes - after you really learn him you realize the mash moves are the most basic moves in his arsenal by default. I got to using his pauses mid windmill and connecting to various moves.
Like at 4:50 if I mashed out a move it's ok, my brain has been recording my input this whole time. I know roughly what I pressed two seconds ago but I also know which foot that started with which helps me narrow down exactly what I pressed, like ok it was a 4 first and I remember I was still holding back at that point so it might be back 4 3.
I am Mighty Ruler so far and hold my own against Raijin/Fujin but get my ass handed to me a little higher than those. The problem Jim came into a minute later is that it is very duckable and that is what usually gets me, until I start compensating for that.
Having to play high ranked eddies all day yesterday has completely ruined this character for me. Nothing is more infuriating than being on the blocking end of an unintentionally smurfing Eddy, then not even giving me the tools to lab punish windows without buying him. Only time I’ve played tekken and felt like I was being cheated and didn’t enjoy my tekken experience since launch.
Going into Toys R Us with my grandparents to play the demo consoles set up in the store; Star Fox 64, Tekken on the PS, man what a great time. I basically never played any fighting games so of the two characters you could play the dude that wiggled around a lot i did really well on because i could just thump the controller and probably land some hits lol
Bro i actually learnt eddy moves and combos with still getting better at neutral. I win against a lot of people even 9 win streak but i always lose to a mashing eddy. I guess im wrong for trying to play legit
Can confirm I just got a 30 win streak mashing 😂 I think I know like 6-7 actual moves and absolutely no strings. Easy mode character. Seems like he would be hard to learn technical stuff with because of stances but seems dope.
I coasted to red ranks with Eddy without knowing basically any of his moves, so he's definitely a scrub killer. Only dropped a few matches along the way, and only to other scrub Eddys played by higher ranked players with stronger fundamentals.
i did arcade mode with him earlier and just mashing definitely didn't work on the computer lol, i went to training and did the practice combos and i think Eddy might be actually good again after how relatively low tier he was back in t7
I'm not mad that he went on an 8 game winning streak by mashing with Eddie Gordo, I'm mad that he went on that win streak with a primarily neutral stick while alternating the kicks. Not even the full mashing menu!
Where did you get the button thing on screen? And do they have one for hitbox? I don’t have arcade stick, but I want my stream to see my buttons as well
-try hopkicking when you see him go into one of his low to the ground stances -use repeated backdashing to get out of range and bait whiffs -abuse frame traps and okizeme since he is probably mashing slow moves like 3 but at the end of the day your best bet is to do the punishment training against him in training mode
He wasn't good because of mashing, he was good because his movements are hard to predict compared to people throwing punches. Although now half the cast are anime characters, so....😊
He wasn’t really a mashing character, sure you could press 3/4 and connect stuff but for his combos it wasn’t mashing, they’ve actually added a full combo with just pressing Down Forward 3 and then 333333333. They ENCOURAGE this behavior 😭
Man, i remember in an arcade when i was watching this guy play KoF 2002 and all he was doing was spinning the stick around and mashing the buttons as crazily as possible and his Billy just kept sending out so many attacks and specials nonstop XD So yes, mash. Mash. *MASH!!!!!*
Eddy is bugged to hell right now. From his high low mix that will hit you in crouch, too how much of his stuff is plus, and how goddamn long his strings are, his ki charge is literally is bugged harder than Victors throw. That's not even too mention, high rank players are being put into beginner ranks because the matchmaking for him is jacked up. I'm a warrior rank fighting legit flame rulers and fujins.
Not only that, but everyone is a beginner when they use Eddy insteas of an average of their real rank. My first 2 fights in tekken 8 was against 2 eddies that had mpre tgan 160.000 tekken prow 😂, i barelly escaped the perfects and didn't want to play anymore, fix your shiet Harada!!!!
i really don't understand why the tekken team thinks these one button combos should be in the game. noctis, kuni, victor and now eddy. i'm over here struggling to get over 60 damage with xiaoyu, meanwhile all eddy has to do is 3333333333333333 wtf
I played against an eddy today, he was dog shit but had an 8 game win streak, mashing certainly works, at least on day 1 where u cant even lab the character unless u buy it

this is like those ken shoryuken only challenges, the proper way of playing the character
He literally just pressed 3 , 4 alternating LOL
Victor is the "just press 2" guy.
Now eddy is the "just press 3 guy"
Eddy as a dlc makes a lot of sense, ppl will climb just mashing.
i’m literally so tired of playing against him it’s straight up 75% eddys just fucking mashing and it’s INFURIATING

no way! that GetMashed guy mashed me just this morning lol

Heat Smashes and Rage Arts are TOTALLY part of mashing. They're one button moves.
No they’re not.
@@christoferprestipino7433yes they are, mashers love using the super moves etc
If you have them set as macros. Otherwise heat / heat smash are two buttons (2 + 3), and Rage Art is DF 1+2.
@@heroicsquirrel3195 but there is more than just mashing the heat button. Characters have moves you do while you are in heat.
@@Thesoutherndandee yeah i know, mashers just use rage art and heat smash

He's got a bad reputation but when you learn him, like actually learn him past the mashing stuff, he's really fun.
TEKKEN Community: “Eddie Gordo wins by Mashing.”
Me actually playing the character and mashing: “WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!?!"
he seems so fun but i don't want to pay $40 CAD

I am a masher, there are two types of us. Educated mashing and mindless mashing.

PLAYSTATION 1 Eddy was literally mashing and doing the craziest combos ever, and I loved it
Eugh.
Watching you mash with Eddy against that Jun while asking why you were beginner ranks with him had me dead 💀💀💀
laughed like 3 times on that Leo match, that was hilarious and toxic, I love it, this is what tekken is about
I haven't watched the video yet, but I already know the answer to your question is a great big YES
Dude, "The Information Age" was mid 90s to mid 2000s.😂 It's now the MISINFORMATION AGE 🎉
Is it really og eddy from 3 if you can't mash ?
that really only worked at casual levels, in competitive t3 he wasn't really that good and characters like Jin and ogre were way better

Eddie was great back in the day. The strategy of mashing and mixing up highs and lows always made me look like a genius. 😅
I like the title of the video. lul some people forget how much you could mash of eddy in T7
Forget Eddy what's with those alpacas
It’s in Peru. Azucena is Peruvian.
i really like they brought back tag 2 Yoshi costume that one is one of the best ones he had before
i need to go copy this Lili custom, i never thought about making her into esdeath i love that character

“Can you win by mashing the most infamous button mashing character in the tekken franchise” 😂
The answer is yes
I miss Tiger Jackson... Hope we get that Alt soon.

My mans is not even using he meter, he is truly just mashing 😂
4:50 how do I do that move?
Thats the Eddy mash/spam combo since Tekken 3 XD
F+4, 3+4
Oh no Im having real dnf duel PTSD with this patch bro
yes. yes he can.
This was my strategy in Tekken 3. I just pressed circle and cross NON-STOP. 😎
JM out here asking the real questions
Eddie Gordo's hair is making me hungry for Cheetos.
I know people always said Eddy was the mash king, but honestly Hwoarang wasn't too far behind.
LTG is going to mald so bad and i'll be there for it.
I think he has a side step evasion move too. Maybe not this installment. He did back in the day.
I coasted to red ranks with Eddy without knowing basically any of his moves, so he's definitely a scrub killer. Only dropped a few matches along the way, and only to other scrub Eddys played by higher ranked players with stronger fundamentals.

can the most notorious mash to win character mash to win? lol the question answers itself.
As a kid Eddy and hwoarang carried me through Tekken tag single player lol
Thats part of every fighting game journey to greatness, how to defeat cheese 😂
This is the truth definition of: if you don´t know what you are doing, less the opponent
That is just the reminiscence of the original experience with the genre in the early 2d fgs and 3d fgs. That's what built everything.
Down forward 3+4 is really strong in older games, don't know how it works in 8 though
Why did you cut out the 2 back to back perfect matches 😭
I'm not mad that he went on an 8 game winning streak by mashing with Eddie Gordo, I'm mad that he went on that win streak with a primarily neutral stick while alternating the kicks. Not even the full mashing menu!
I got wrecked by an Eddie and I had no idea what he was doing lol. I haven’t played tekken since 3 so I’m not confused why
The salt in this title 😂
How were there 2 instant perfects? You jump cut? Why?
Where did you get the button thing on screen? And do they have one for hitbox? I don’t have arcade stick, but I want my stream to see my buttons as well

@@jmcrofts yo, super fast reply, thx bro
How would you actually punish a mashing Eddy player as someone who doesn't know frame data of moves yet? Ducking Jabs?
Even if you don't know actual frame data just look for big moves that look punishable. We figured it out without frame data for years.
Learn your fastest button and like someone else here said, wait for a big move.
Backdash, sidestep, block. Wait for a big whiff. Punish.
@@G0rgarThe Leo player clearly did that and got beat.
-try hopkicking when you see him go into one of his low to the ground stances
-use repeated backdashing to get out of range and bait whiffs
-abuse frame traps and okizeme since he is probably mashing slow moves like 3
but at the end of the day your best bet is to do the punishment training against him in training mode
Knowing when to block is a big advantage tho haha
USE FORWARD 2 INTO 3 or 4 (I CANT REMEMBER) FOR A MID INTO LOW STRING
OR USE DOWN 4 TO 3
New video title
Is Eddy P2W?
Can you do this in high ranks? At the very least, at blue.
He wasn't good because of mashing, he was good because his movements are hard to predict compared to people throwing punches. Although now half the cast are anime characters, so....😊
Just accept the fact that eddy gordo is for only braindead players, even the alisa isn't making me throwing up so much as him.
He wasn’t really a mashing character, sure you could press 3/4 and connect stuff but for his combos it wasn’t mashing, they’ve actually added a full combo with just pressing Down Forward 3 and then 333333333. They ENCOURAGE this behavior 😭
Esdeath spotted??
I remember I used to mash that slippery kick back in day. Tekken 2, mashing Eddie was a menace and taking all challengers.
Eddy came out in Tekken3 tho
does mashing making it Harder or Easier to make reads?
Depends on rank
Eddy is my fav fighting game character ez
Eugh
Despite being generic gordo, his moves are still fun.
Good thing there are customisation and mods for us to use.
Fvckin hair.

Simple answer: fuck yeah he can

cancer of our community.
Day one fighting Eddy ... why the hell did they release this?
He literally has an auto combo without modern controls, higher up i assume the mashing wont work obviously
Mashers don't block or press back
Man, i remember in an arcade when i was watching this guy play KoF 2002 and all he was doing was spinning the stick around and mashing the buttons as crazily as possible and his Billy just kept sending out so many attacks and specials nonstop XD
So yes, mash. Mash. *MASH!!!!!*
Is that Lili supposed to be cosplaying Esdeath?
Shout out to Dane Cook.
I actually tried this too and ran into another mf eddy. He knew his combos and shit I knew the 'recommended' combo. I actually almost beat him lol
Why'd they let the developers cook? Why? They made the meme real.

He’s mashing but doing full combos essentially pressing 3😂

bro acted like mashing isn't a viable strategy till yellow for half of the roster
You should of just gone as far as you could mashing and then learned would of been fun to see how far you could actually get
You stopped mashing and stopped ranking up lol😂
Yes he can win by mashing 333333 until red rank 😂 i had to start playing real tekken at ruler
