'''Miguel''' is a brawler that likes to pressure opponents in their face with effective pokes and Savage Stance mix-ups. A solid character with decent movement, tracking, combo damage, counter hits, okizeme, and of course pressure. He struggles with long-range punishes, lacks a good mid CH launcher, and lacks moves with built-in evasion.  Due to the poor range of his jabs and many other attacks, Miguel wants to be either right in front of the opponent or just out of range to whiff punish with his good hopkick or f,f+2,1.

Overview

Miguel, the angry Spaniard, is a close-range brawler that likes to get in his opponent's face and pressure them with effective pokes and mix-ups from his Savage Stance. He was first introduced in Tekken 6 and has returned in every installment.

He is a solid character with decent tracking, combo damage, counter hit tools, okizeme, pressure, and exceptional movement. Despite this, he struggles with long-range punishes and lacks moves with built-in evasion, with the exception of b, f+1. Miguel wants to be either right in front of the opponent or dancing just out of range to whiff punish with his good hopkick or f+4,2.

NOTE: Everyone likes to joke around with the fact that Miguel has T-Rex arms. This is due to the frustration players feel when Miguel can barely hit someone who's right in front of him with a generic 1 or 2 jab. He has high jabs, kind of the opposite of Kazumi's jabs. The only range issues he has are with 2 (for i11 punisher 2,1) and d+1 (duck jab).

Many speculate that Namco personally prefers Miguel having short range with his generic jabs as they want to re-enforce the idea of Miguel being close-up and in your face.
