This page is for Tekken 8. For Tekken 7, see Alisa (Tekken 7).

Alisa is fast and evasive poking character who excels at darting around her opponent while peppering them quick moves. Her strong movement allows her to gracefully step around her opponent's attacks, making it difficult to pin her down. On the offense, her frustrating array of pokes can whittle down an opponent or provoke them into doing something stupid. She can also mixup her opponent with dual chainsaws, that in Heat, will quickly rip apart an opponent's grey life. She's great for players looking to play a fast, hit-and-run playstyle that emphasizes movement.

Due to her primarily poke-based offense, she can struggle to make comebacks against a deep life deficit. She doesn't hit hard, and needs to win more interactions than her opponent to take the round.

Suffocating offense in Destructive Form

Weaknesses

Pokes have low damage; she struggles on a life deficit
Bigger comeback tools like DES.d+2 are slow
Short range on several key block punishes

-'''Alisa''' seems like a pretty run of the mill female Tekken character at first glance - good at medium range, good backdash and side step - but the cyborg has some tricks up her sleeve. Chainsaws, in fact. Her Destructive Form (DES) stance gives her two chainsaw arms that do insane chip damage, which only get more powerful in Heat.

-She thrives when lingering just outside range 1. To maximize her capability, strong defensive movement is required in the form of backdash canceling and sidestepping. Her array of frustrating pokes, coupled with this great movement, gives her the ability to confidently whiff punish with moves like f+2,1, uf+2, or wr2, which can also be used to transition into DES. While running inputs are even easier in Tekken 8, allowing Alisa to more easily hit her crucial while running input on wr2.
+Due to her primarily poke-based offense, she can struggle to make comebacks against a deep life deficit. She doesn't hit hard, and needs to win more interactions than her opponent to take the round.
-Her Dual Boot (DBT) stances is nothing to sneeze at either, giving her even more access to very damaging, if not a bit slow, moves to further pack on the pain. While she can have a hard time making comebacks happen against more patient players due to her somewhat poor damage and risky big damage moves, leveraging her great movement and oppressive DES form can let her hang with the best of them.
