'6 Leroy's in the top 8 of Evo Japan and everyone is surprised and disgusted,' said prior EVO finalist Lil Majin on Twitter. So what makes Leroy so dangerous in the eyes of Tekken pros? Well, his jabs and approach are great, his parry stances are fairly scary, and the damage he can get off of easy and light confirms certainly seem to push him instantly to the upper part of the tier list.Īll of that said, however, there are others who are telling people to chill out a bit, and it's far too early to get worried about this after two days of competition / we shouldn't be surprised about this outcome following the hype. Previous Tekken World Tour Champion AMPLFY|Rangchu took to Twitter to point out that the top three finishers from EVO Japan 2019, VS|Arslan Ash, PBE|AK and Illusion|CherryBerryMango, all lost to Leroy players while Rangchu himself also went down to Noroma's Mr. At the same time, however, this doesn't come as much of a surprise either considering how much the FGC has been hyping him up since launch and claiming him to be overpowered. The answer to that probably lies somewhere in the middle here. Some are joking that the developers may need to get on stage and apologize after finals tonight, but is he really that much of a threat to the meta or is everyone just jumping in on the hype of a month-old character? Of course, a performance like this quickly caught the attention of the commentators, players attending and viewers at home who began to wonder if this is indeed a sign that Leroy launched too powerful for his own good. needless to say, he's having a pretty good time in Japan thanks to thanks to THY|Chikurin, Talon|Book, Liquid|Gen, CGS|Noroma, Masa and Zeugal among a handful of others in the upper brackets as well. This is the first major event that Leroy has been available to use, and the scene has been curious to see how he'd do in his debut outing.
