I "used" to be serious, however, I've quit well beyond a year and a half now(competitive fighting games all together) . However I quit on Tekken 5 way back during 5.0, simply because it was such a garbage Tekken game, I tried to give DR a chance, but it was still a Launch/Crush+Juggle+Wallsplat gameplan regardless of whom you picked.
I played a heavy amount of competition for Tekken 3, and especially TekkenTag, wow, that was the BEST time to be a Tekken player. I remember going to Extravaganza...forgot how you spell it, however there, I remember watching JOP and Slips duking it out...damn, it was incredible. Because those guys truly know how to play Tekken.
I can't remember right, but I believe Slips won, simply because he caught on to what JOP was doing with his Ogres, hahahahaha, good stuff.
Tekken 4, I played alot as well, and even though I played Jin. Tekken 4 was imo, the most demanding Tekken game to learn inside and out, and imo, it had the right ideas, just that it needed an upgrade.
I remember playing some dude, forgot his name, but he was trying to do a Tom runaway Nina, he was pretty solid. It was funny, cause he used to nickname me "Gay-Jin" for whenever I picked Jin, he couldn't spam Hiyashida as much due to Parry, lmao...good times.
I remember almost taking a tournament, but getting aced out by my cousin who played a solid Steve...stupid 121, D+1 on CH BS! Oh well, it was all good, T4 was obviously my most successful years, simply because my character was so powerful, not really my skills (although don't underestimate during that time, I was solid, just that I beat better players, simply because my character was so powerful, was what I was trying to say), I will admit that.
However...once Tekken 5 came around, and I started getting crushed, getting launching, seeing me lose 60-80%+ for messing up once. Giving so many characters hopkicks which lead to stupid damage+Wallsplats+Newbified Game Engine. I could tolerate Jin gettin nerfed, however I couldn't tolerate the game engine mechanics that where brought in Tekken 5.
I simply quit Tekken 5, so yeah, that was me, I 'was" competetive in Tekken, not anymore, I haven't touched a Tekken game for like...wow...I don't know how long now...so I probably suck really badly, lmao.
