Just had my first long set with a really good Lili. Was actually able to learn the match-up. Just reinforces my belief that inifinite rematches in Quick Play will only help this game.

The knowledge checks are the main reason why I'd love for them to add infinite rematches. I know that it was a thing in T7, so I hope they eventually bring it back. The FT2 sets are making it a huge pain to actually ingrain the things that I've been labbing, and once it's done, it'll take God...

I'm hesitant about locking players into ranked sets mainly because of how bad the lag can be. Online has been great for the most part, but when it gets bad, it gets BAD, especially if someone's playing on a potato PC. In those instances, I wouldn't want to be locked into that kind of connection...

I'm looking forward to the extra customization options that the shop will eventually add. Hooking up my mains with the freshest fits has been my second favorite part of this game.

I was already okay with Jun losing her wall combo damage, but I'm 80% sure I found something that can replace it. It just turns the extra damage into a guess between Izu 41 or Izu 2 instead of guaranteed 1+2.

My favorite thing about Jun so far is her set-up combo into guaranteed relaunch if the opponent doesn't stay grounded, and even then, it's still an unavoidable 12%. Seriously, the whole thing does 120-130 damage if you don't know how to avoid it. I've been committing some absolute robbery these...

Unrelated to gameplay, but holy shit, the Jukebox just woke me up to some serious bangers in this franchise.

Speaking as someone who hasn't touched a Tekken game since Tag 1, the game as a whole is way more beginner-friendly than I expected it to be, given the franchise's reputation. I picked up Jun, and thanks to a guide, it only took me about a day before I felt comfortable with her. Characters...

Okay, so I've done some labbing, and I REALLY like what Khameleon has to offer our girl. I've gone through all three of her forms and tried to figure out some dirt, and I've gotta say, while individually, there's no 'Low Hat Vortex' levels of filth, there's some stuff here that, when combined...

I can record some examples when I get home, but Mileena can combo off of all sorts of things like her armored special and her overhead F4 by canceling into Close Fan Lift and immediately doing Air Ball Roll for about 24% meterless, iirc. She honestly gets some pretty good mix in all three...

Mileena/Sonya: Offensive options (4/5) (4.5/5 if they don't FB 1,2.) – The fear that 1,2 strikes into the opponents I face makes it such a good tool, even with the risk of flawless block. Stagger into throw, stagger into F1, stagger into her +2 B4, or with Sonya kameo, cancel S1 into EX Low...

Hourglass said in his stream that he doesn't believe the nerf affects Mileena that much, and I can see why. Low Hat's strongest utility was never the +2, most people just mashed after it anyway. The neutral control, its use as a projectile, and its setplay are all still intact and that's what...

Interesting approach. Instead of direct changes to most of the main roster outside of bug fixes, the kameos are what saw the more significant changes. I kinda like that philosophy if it's what NRS has planned moving forward. And yeah, it seems like they're fine with where the top tiers are...

Them teasing in the Kombat Kast that some characters will have new moves added in future patches just makes me remember that they gave Mileena Tarkatan blades that she never uses outside of two special moves. I'd kill for some normals and strings that actually utilize them.

Yeah, it's a timed cycle by default, but after each assist, you can hold your assist button to force a switch. The catch is that the order is randomized, so it can be Kitana-->Jade-->Kitana-->Mileena-->Jade. Not sure if I like that, at least from a competitive angle.

If you're interested in studying footage from the best Mileena out there right now, I strongly recommend visiting Hourglass_of_Rain's Twitch to get a general idea of how to play her (he uses Lao Kameo). Not only does he run long sets with high level players, but he also spends good chunks of his...

I don't mind FT2 with the current state of online as it allows me to get out of sets with bad connections more quickly. Fix the netcode and I'll honestly play even FT10s all day.

Okay, he might still be fresh, but I think Tremor has potential to be a real solid kameo for Mileena. Even though we lose out on Low Hat--which is a pretty big deal, I won't lie--he amplifies her up close game in a way that not many kameos can, and it's all thanks to his ambushes. I've mostly...

Oh, no, these Kombat League peeps ain't ready for Mileena/Darrius. They ain't used to Low Sai leading to 35%. They ain't used to 21 1+3 leading to 40-46%. They ain't used to 60% Fatal Blow combos because Mileena just doesn't like health bars lol. I don't even care if he's not that good, my...

Oh, yeah. 'Grinning Flesheater' might've finally topped Mileena's default as my favorite skin for her. That red and black with the little bits of silver is clean!
