Lil Majin’s video discusses the potential changes to King in Tekken 8 and how they may impact his gameplay. He starts by addressing the current state of counter hit throws in the game and expresses his concerns about their usefulness. He mentions that King is known for his grappling abilities and hopes that the blue spark throws remain difficult to break, as this would differentiate him from other characters. However, he acknowledges that if throws become easier to step, it could diminish their value in high-level play.

Lil Majin also touches on the recent patch notes, which mention buffs to lateral movement and changes to throws. He speculates that these changes may make throws stepable again, which he personally enjoyed as it required players to react and adapt. He discusses the potential impact of these changes on King’s gameplay, noting that his Jaguar Sprint stance may be nerfed and that some players are calling for both of his mid options to be unsafe. He also mentions the counter plays available against King’s heat moves and expresses hope that King will not be heavily nerfed in future updates.
