If we're posting some The Skeletons are Fighting combos then here's a meter dump one for Gigante!

The Skeletons are Fighting (Steam Next Fest demo October 2025):

Albert EX dash loop combo in the corner.

The Skeletons are Fighting (Steam Next Fest demo October 2025):

Yor 50% combo using full meter.

This game seems to scale longer combos with lots of L attacks very hard, so it seems better to go for shorter combos with more M and H attacks in order to get big damage.

Pittsburgh Pro Series finale will take place on Saturday, see who will take home the 5000$ prize.

So sad as a local FGC TO seeing Tekken 8 crash and burn in terms of popularity, mainly cuz of season 2. We had a Tekken 7 and T8 bracket at our bi-weekly today. More people came out for the T7 bracket than T8 lol. We often don't have the minimum 4 entrants to run T8 each event.
