Lidia strategy (Tekken 7): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 12:15, 11 July 2021

Neutral is when both players can act freely. It makes up most of the game, so learning how to play it is critical. There's no point mastering all the combos and setups if you can't use them in an actual game.

This page contains a brief overview of this character's key neutral tools followed by advice for putting them together.

ws4: A common theme with Lidia is solid pokes with high and/or mid extensions. Making best use of these pokes is an exercise in restraint: The purpose of the extensions is to be a threat to let you steal turns on block (i.e. utilizing mental frame advantage). If you overuse the extensions, you not only might die for it, but you never get your free turns. Even if d/f+1,2 never gets ducked on block, the situation is clearly -3; d/f+1 might be worse at -5, but it has the threat of d/f+1,3 looming.
4: Important in some matchups as the fastest move that reliably tracks right.
d/f+2: Most dependable mid mixup option with great speed, range, and free damage on counter hit.
b+4: More than a cheap string. It's fairly safe, although slow for a poke; the situation on block feels good at -2 with the threat of b+4,4; and 21 damage is solid reward on hit.
f+1+2: Hit confirm into f+1+2,3,2,1.
u/f+4: Arguably the best hopkick in the game with great tracking, a low hitbox, and the ability to combo off anti-airs.
