Tekken 7 Claudio Player Dodges Rage Art To Stifle A Comeback

Until a match is over, it’s almost never too late for a comeback in any competitive game. This is especially true of fighting games like Tekken 7 where a desperate player can catch an overconfident opponent in the final moment and bring a complete and utter beat down in return. For a player like CKT | Nemo, that doesn’t seem to be such an issue. He never gave his opponent a chance to turn the tables and make a difference in the video below.

From the get-go, it looked like Nemo was sitting pretty and ready to put his match against this Jin player away. Playing Claudio, he had the health advantage and was putting in short combo after short combo to chip away at his opponent. Unfortunately for the Jin player, Nemo seemed to have figured out a pattern in his fighting. Nemo blocked an attempted combo and stepped up, drawing out the Rage Art from Jin, only for Nemo to duck under the initiating strike in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it dodge and make Jin waste it completely. From there on out, Nemo happily employed the sword he collected to tee off on Jin’s last bit of health and finish the match in resounding fashion.

Many a good player have been wrecked by a comeback that came off of a devastating counterplay like the one that this Jin player tried to employ. However, the best of the best won’t let up and let a match slip away before it’s done. Nemo had this one figured out and kept his eyes on the prize, and for such a proficient little dodge to seal the deal, he gets to happily take the win with him.
