Lidia and Leroy both felt like the type of flagship character designs you debut in a new numbered entry launch, so I was always surprised they were used as DLC in Tekken 7 rather than saved for Tekken 8. That’s how high a quality they are to me. I’m stoked that they are now both in Tekken 8.
Leroy has been nerfed to dirt and is practically unplayable. He is tuned to not be any good in high level tournaments. He has the slowest orbital, all of his lows are obvious and slow, his combo routes are terrible, and he does trash damage.
@@toryburke137they quietly buffed his damage at some point this month. His combo routes are fine, he gets really good wall combo damage, and one of his slow lows is essentially safe with his parry follow-ups. Dooming about where he is rn when they just highlighted him in the "balance update!" Segment of the trailer you're commenting under too, lmao. So upset, and for what?
@@DragonHeart613 Don't try to make sense of Asian storytelling. There's no shortage of Asian stories where the protagonist kills someone's parent and then the child becomes the MC's pet or harem member (or both). Eddy becoming Jin's pet isn't too surprising when you put that into perspective.
Not an eddy exclusive though but I am happy as well. Harada tweeted out around eddy's reveal that there is going to be free dlc for the Main story that showcases how all the season 1 dlc characters were participating in the main story. They are basically "retconning" the main story in real time to add in extra chapters for how Eddy, Lidia, and whoever the other DLC characters are, were involved in the main story.
@DragonHeart613 From what I've read Jin actually did help Eddy with trying to cure his master unfortunately it was a case of even that wasn't enough to save him
I'm so happy Lidia is back, she is my most favorite and most used characters in T7. I just hope she is fun to use in T8 and I also hope her T7 outfit is also available in T8.
I am very happy too. Cause i mained Lidia in Tekken 7 and i played with her a LOT. And i very love her new outfit too. So i am glad that she is the second DLC character after Eddy.
@@DragonHeart613 They weren't gonna blow all that money creating all of her animations for T7, just to not use it again in T8. Same goes for Leroy, and if leaks are to be believed, then Fahkumram too.
I think she ostentatiously boycotted Kazuia's tournament, and that's a good thing! That's what she should have done. If it turns out otherwise, I will be disappointed.I think she ostentatiously boycotted Kazuia's tournament, and that's a good thing! That's what she should have done.

Still remember her reveal trailer in 7. So badass. And the type of character that could be expanded since she fits in so well. I am glad she is back ❤️🤍
Man Eddy gettin' his own side story is one of the strongest redemption arcs we've ever seen after what became of him on T7. Happy for people who main him. It's not often a character is done dirty for whatever reason and makes a epic return. My main from the sister series didn't get this treatment unfortunately. Yet very fortunately that game failed so that's the sugar on the cream.
"It was in T7 as well"As it was more than half the roster? Whats the point? Is also free, and also dont remember it having day, afternoon and night versions, which if you think is just sliding the light to a new position you are clearly wrong, takes a similar re design to reqork a character visually.
@@EstebanBrenesV double standards which is pretty much the norm. okay to copy edit and paste characters but it's a big no no to do that with stages. they have to be made uniquely which shows tender love and care. this is an objective fact. in my opinion anyway.
@@JV-km9xk I guess but the fun fact is that t7 stages would look bad in t8, that to make a stage look like a new version of a t7 you would probably have to make a new one and then fine tune it to have the same feel as the original which actually is more work, I dont know why people think you can snap your fingers and all assets just increase poly count, change UVs adjust weight, go into photoshop get new higher resolution textures that fit perfectly and new light polishing, as well as good frame rate....
The stage is not even remotely the same, other than being a beach, like nothing about it is similar other than the sand and the water. Beach stage is something most fighting games have had for decades. There are a shitload of fair things to complain about, this is not one of those.
I’m surprised Lydia returned in this as she was DLC but it means anyone can return in the game and is Crazy that it has been 30 Years since the Original Game started and look at it now, it has evolved into something great.
You have no idea how happy I am that Lidia is back for 2 reasons. 1. Love her character design but 2. The style of karate she uses is the one I actually studied during my teenage years so always felt a special connection to her as a result and her being so late in T7’s lifespan meant I didn’t get to enjoy her as much as I wished so now? Bets are off!
Never got to use Lidia much, so I'm looking forward to her playing even faster now that stances are a more integral part of some characters playstyles! Can't wait to see her this Summer!
I can't speak for everyone but by the time she released in Tekken 7, I had already moved on to other games. So I never played with her or saw her get played or anything like that. Hopefully she'll be cool, but now it doesn't bring the hype the way a legacy character would.
There was a leak way back when where they announced the characters were Lidia, Eddy, Fakhumram, and Craig Marduk. So, with Lidia, announced, the two characters yet to be announced are going to be Marduk and Fak.
Everyone did a leak, naming Eddy and Lidia isn't special, both Craig and Fakh aren't popular. They even gave King Craig moves and Azu has Fakh moves. We already have a working in -gane model of devil Reina, it's probably gonna be her.
Now I definitely have to play Tekken 8! Lidia is my new favorite T7 character, even apart from the fact that she also represents my country. Respect Namco 🙏
I’d love to see a Tower Defense Mode in which you pull a lever and you get a 50% chance to defend or get comboed to the wall and then again, if you guess right, you have a 50% chance of surviving an infinite amount of plus frames mix ups
I hope they bring back someone like Bruce or Fauhkumram in T8 as I’m a big fan of Muay Thai and it would be cool to see how they make the new version of the characters
Lmao all these recent comments are all asking for different waifus. How about masculine male characters? You guys don't want to play as a male in a fighting game?
I said if my main didn’t end up being the summer character I’d at least like to have a character that I would at least find tolerable to play with during the summer. Lidia isn’t my main but I’ll definitely be playing with her a lot this summer
Super happy for this. Lidia is my most wanted DLC character. I ended up putting Tekken 8 down since I never found “my character” lol excited to jump in and try to git gud again
My thing with every character is I believe the team says "we are NOT wasting the money we spent on that move list" and picks/makes a character. So expect Negan in some form.
Heres everyone excited about lidia and the new story chapter, then heres me checking up grey untextured ball asset's character arc and seeing if he's okay...

Watch Lucky Chloe still end up being the final boss of Eddy's story mode somehow
😂
For the love of god pls no
Lucky Chloe was behind his master's death. I knew it.
I'll pay extra for that
That would mean we get to beat her up as Eddie and I’m ok with that
Glad Lidia is back probably one of my most used character from T7
Probably one of the most underused character overal. Useless add.
@@burnheart2965 not really
@@burnheart2965all the more to expand her (probably) in 8 if she wasnt so hot in 7
@@burnheart2965 She was used in proplay by a high level player at the last season in T7. So, she is more relevant than most.
In the top requested characters, Lidia is not in the list. A season pass full of old news first Eddy now this smh.
I'm so happy Lidia is back, she is my most favorite and most used characters in T7. I just hope she is fun to use in T8 and I also hope her T7 outfit is also available in T8.
I'm Polish so i played just for the reason of nationality and found her really fun, I do hope her t7 outfit gets in
Wasn't every T7 outfits are available for T8?
Good for you. She was always too complicated for me but now I'm better and try her out 😂 should be more interesting than eddy
I am very happy too. Cause i mained Lidia in Tekken 7 and i played with her a LOT. And i very love her new outfit too. So i am glad that she is the second DLC character after Eddy.
Lidia was definitely a fan favorite T7 character same as Leroy.
I am so happy. I was learning her right before tekken 8 came out. She is cool and i feel she came out too late.
So damn happy she's back man. Polish POWER ❤️
I was really hoping Lidia would make it into T8👍
Hope her rival cutscene is with Dragunov, Victor, Leo or/and Lars

picked up lidia right before 8's release. I'm happy to see her back so early.
Well deserved. Lidia was an impressive new character on T7.
The Polish Karate Fighting Fighting Prime Minister is back. I feel like she should've been main roster but I'm still excited nonetheless.
The actual Shoto is back.
Bring back Tekken force mode, Tekken 8 needs a beat 'em up-like campaign mode.
Thank You. Happy to know that I'm not the only one who wants Harada to bring back Tekken Force mode👍
coop tekken force plz!
That's what the battle pass is for.
As long as people contribute to it they'll be able to afford to put it in the game...
don't ask him for shite he put it in the story 💀
@@ligmasphere901is it as good as t4?
Lidia coming back was all I needed. I’m set.
Lidia is DLC again haha. Still happy to see her, badass karate girls are GOATed
Really hope Tifa gets an Evo announcement
@@TacoLex. I hope so too.
Lidia's new costume looks lit ❤
She should've been base roster but I'm happy she's here!
Edit : 125 likes!? Thanks guys! 😄
Considering she came out at the end of T7, she was like the shortest lived tekken fighter, so im glad she's coming back for 8 early on!
Just a tactical decision. They knew people will buy her dlc like candy. Not that i’m complaining, i’m glad she’s back
I think she ostentatiously boycotted Kazuia's tournament, and that's a good thing! That's what she should have done. If it turns out otherwise, I will be disappointed.I think she ostentatiously boycotted Kazuia's tournament, and that's a good thing! That's what she should have done.

I wonder if we get more info on christie from his side story
Did they reference the cutscene from one of the old Tekken games where Heihachi watches Kuma break stuff like Paul's wall intro and the glass slabs? 😮
Ice slabs.
Butt slaps
Idk, it's such a karate trope that it's prolly not a reference to kuma
Overthinking. Relax. Heihachi isn't coming back.
They're adding photo mode. I gotta buy it now.
6:55 to get to the point!
Also that "summer stage" is not even new! it was in tekken 7 aswel.
True, just cut and paste sadly.
"It was in T7 as well"As it was more than half the roster? Whats the point?

Lidia is back, now i just need Karin in SF6 and i’m good
Imagine if they add a Tekken Tag mode. Likely not, but would be pretty cool to experience a modern tag fighting game.
I'd love to see Team Battle
That was so much quicker than Sf6 dlc characters
This is just a teaser. She'll get a full trailer later.
I'm hyped, I wanted Lidia back ever since I saw Leroy was in Tekken 8
I’m surprised Lydia returned in this as she was DLC but it means anyone can return in the game and is Crazy that it has been 30 Years since the Original Game started and look at it now, it has evolved into something great.

I don’t care much for Lidia, but whoever edited that S1 trailer deserves a raise and paid time off. They absolutely understood the assignment.
You can clearly see they not knowing it was Lidia until her name poped up on the screen. Not knowing her stage at all, "Christie?!".
Fake fans confirmed.
Never got to use Lidia much, so I'm looking forward to her playing even faster now that stances are a more integral part of some characters playstyles! Can't wait to see her this Summer!
When Eddy was announced the crowd was literally chanting his name but for Lydia they were silent, it's like night and day

even though its sad that its mostly tekken 7 retreads, atleast theyre bringing my mains back. hype.
That's the most underwhelming roster for dlc characters....
Bruh who wants Fakhumram to come back can we have Bruce instead
Wait, whaaaa?! Lidia is in?! I'm pleased.
No way Lidia is coming back?! She was 1 of my Tekken 7 mains. The only reason I play Reina so much is because she played like Lidia (IMO).
4:36 Leaned back and sideways.
4:46 Leaned forward and perked up.
I think Lidia, similar to Luke for Street Fighter, was a T8 character already but was tested in T7. Glad to see they didn't drop her.
6:58
We needed her to be in the release roster. But I'm glad shes back with the beach stage. Since those were the best and last dlc of Tekken 7.
Now I’m here waiting patiently for Marduk
The crowd went mild when they announced lidia.
4:20 "Large scale TOURNAMENT Mode!" had me dead for some reason 😭
Lidia coming back is cool
adding story chapters potentially means we'll get Devil Reina in T8. Ancient Ogre might also be a possibility
That's the fastest from stream to TH-cam...
Yessss!!! I was waiting for Lidia. I just hope my main Fahkumram makes it as the next dlc after Lidia
I figured they would try to adress the recent issues. Hopefully things continue to get better quickly 👍
this makes me VERY HAPPY thank you
This costume is what I've been waiting for
That didnt seem like a new move for Leroy
I'd love to see everyone come back
Muay Thai is missing. I hipe they will bring Fakhumram back.
I would love to see Joe Higashi, or King drop by Tekken to represent KOF & Muay Thai
So far, the leak seems to be right, so there are high chances he is coming back. Not a huge fan, but nice non-the-less.
Now I definitely have to play Tekken 8! Lidia is my new favorite T7 character, even apart from the fact that she also represents my country. Respect Namco 🙏
Can’t wait to see him react to Akuma trailer
I'll delete the game. He gave me PTSD
How different in gameplay is leo with lidia ?
Love Lidia, happy shes coming back. Now I can main her again
Was Lidia that popular that they would not only bring her back, but so soon?
2nd least played character in T7
It’s Tekken 30th anniversary let’s celebrate with a bang!!!!🤩😁🎉🎊🥊🥳⚡️⚡️🎂
Didn't have much chance to play her in T7, glad she's back though.
I'm glad Lidia is back! I loved playing her in Tekken 7.
I'm happy Lidia is back simply because I picked her up around the time that T7 was stopping and I liked her and will play with her more.
It was hinted at victor ending
My main is finally here! Let's friggin go!
I’d love to see a Tower Defense Mode in which you pull a lever and you get a 50% chance to defend or get comboed to the wall and then again, if you guess right, you have a 50% chance of surviving an infinite amount of plus frames mix ups

I hope they bring back someone like Bruce or Fauhkumram in T8 as I’m a big fan of Muay Thai and it would be cool to see how they make the new version of the characters
Doesn't Bruce use Kick Boxing ?
Fak is leaked to be in season one
Cool. She's one of my favorite new characters 👏
I was really hoping for Lidia. Didn't get to play her much in T7.
Did they make Paul Phoenix look like Michael Murray? Was that intentional?
Back for story purposes probably, would make sense...I guess?
I’m glad Lidia is back. She was fun in Tekken 7
Coping and hoping for Julia in autumn but seems unlikely if Lydia is the summer release
Lmao all these recent comments are all asking for different waifus. How about masculine male characters? You guys don't want to play as a male in a fighting game?
baby is back~
Todays just the day for reveal trailers huh 😭
And here i am still waiting for old man Wang and my boy Bruce from Tekken 2 to make a return some day!
Christie, can you imagine Christie. Oh yes that's the only thing I be imagining since the release of this game.
Cannot wait for the new updates it will be cool
so why was Lidia added when Reina already has her moveset?
Nice. Sucks I won't be able to join online for a while.
Kenny getting his Eddy Redemption arc after what they did with him and Lucky Chloe feels so right.
Main fights your going to see Reina vs Lidia
Is it karate season or something? Marco Rodriguez Akuma now Lidia?
7:14 Aahhh
Last time we got lidia and lidia again ?
One two Polish fighting game characters! Happy to see some representation.
I guess the hanmas from baki being added was a fan made thing.
Can’t wait for next doc characters for Tekken 8 seems like the game is getting better maybe I’ll actually get it 🤔
I wish you can earn season pass points on single player stuff.
