hello everyone. with tekken picking up popularity, this guide is meant to be a crash course of sorts for tekken’s general system, with just enough info for new players to pick up and get into the thick of the game rather than spending ages reading multi-page infodump tutorials and still not making sense of much of anything.

for most cases a link to a more comprehensive tutorial is provided for the reader to explore at their own pace. do note that this guide is still being worked on, so changes will happen frequently, especially once tekken 7 is released.
