This page is for Tekken 8. For Tekken 7, see Leroy (Tekken 7).
Fast attacks, devastating offense and tricky parries, Leroy, the solitary warrior, is an aggressive fighter defined by his stance mix-ups, parries and counter hit moves.
Space control moves, such as Zhuan Shen Jiao (b+4) and Chanhui Zhang (d+1+2) complement movement, creating opportunities to use whiff punishers, including Chain Punch: Stem (1+2, 1+2, 1), a hit confirmable Heat Engager. This allows for a safe approach. At close range, combine Hermit’s Fist (b+1) and Outcast Arrow (b+1+2) - two fast counter hit moves - with poke attacks and his Sabaki (d/b+1+2) to condition the opponent to block. Open them up with the mix-up lows: Twin Snake Strike (d+3, 2) and Amputation Kick (d/b+3), both of which lead into Hermit stance mix-ups. In stance, dissuade counter attacks with Chain Punch: Root (1+2, 1), another hit confirmable Heat Engager, and mix it up with low attacks.
Leroy’s parry; Twin Dragon Gate (b+2), parries high and mid strikes, including typically unparryable moves such as knee strikes and jumping attacks. Combined with his sabakis and counter hits, Leroy is risky to challenge. However, Leroy’s gap closing attacks are lacking. Patient opponents that seldom make mistakes can make him struggle to obtain momentum and force him to gamble. Many of Leroy’s attacks also knock the opponent away, compounding his issues maintaining optimal range. When he does get in though, he excels.
