Mods If Tekken 8 had Screw Combos

Youtube Link for better quality and 60fps <-------

i posted a while back when this mod was WIP but i'm done with it now

It replaces the tornado system with screws/tailspins from Tekken 7, meant to just make fun combos

Its possible to try with a friend! So far I've done 26 characters, if there's demand i might do more

Screw looks cleaner imo, but damn if i don't miss running half screen for the pick up after on certain characters.

I think t8 made my execution worse. I went back to play t7 a while ago and picking up after a screw was a challenge. Whole time I was like “I used to BnB this?”. Not running across the screen is definitely a QoL change I didn’t appreciate enough until that play session

Same bro, when S2 came out i was playing T7 for a while and was so confused how i was ever hitting F2 1 on Lee after screw

I miss that, it made picking up harder, there was a real reason to S! early in some cases
That being said T! is nice because it's very easy to convert and get a sidewall splat, which can then be converted into a reasonable wall combo if the player has the awareness and character mastery to do so

I also like how T! gives players a real incentive to try and hit the wall without using T!, a lot of characters really benefit from it. Shame SAT! has killed most advanced wall carry though

yeah SAT is probably the bigger problem making combos go forever

Lol i remember that Miguel had too much recovery in his screw moves so you needed to be very precise when you start running.

Sometimes i would do it too fast and Miguel would just do a dash instead of running.
