Archetype

Marduk is one of the most explosive characters in Tekken. He is best known for his high damage, brutal mix ups, some of the best throws in the game, and ability to steal rounds. He has great oki allowing him to continue the pressure after combos and his solid pressure allows him to break down even the most defensive of turtles.

Complete throw game with throws for each break, a launching throw, ground throws, crouch throws, wall throws, air throws and more
Terrifying oki from ground throws and ground-hitting moves, as well as many ways to set up oki
A hard-to-break tackle that leads to a 3-way mix up

Weaknesses

Weak poking
Sub-par defensive options
Best moves are somewhat slow
Higher than average execution on some important combo routes
Below average sidestep
Fastest ws launch punish is much slower than average at i18
Sex offender
