Meet Paul, the indomitable force and quintessential powerhouse of Tekken. Renowned for his unparalleled 50/50 gameplay, Paul thrives on the relentless pursuit of his opponents, imposing a lethal mixup that becomes even more potent in the heat of battle. The heat mechanic seamlessly complements Paul’s aggressive style, placing him squarely in his adversary’s face following a successful heat engager. Notably, he wields a low heat smash, further amplifying the effectiveness of the heat dynamic in his strategy.
At the crux of Paul’s 50/50 mastery are two devastating options: QCF2, aptly named Deathfist, a formidable mid that inflicts substantial damage and proves challenging for opponents to punish; and Demoman (d4,2,1+2), a punishing low with the added ability to wallsplat from a distance, setting the stage for formidable follow-ups.
Paul’s prowess extends beyond his 50/50 finesse, as he boasts above-average standing and crouching punishment, featuring a swift 14f launcher. However, navigating Paul’s gameplay demands strategic consideration, as his low pokes veer towards the weaker side. A judicious approach to unleashing his mixups becomes imperative for players aiming to harness the full potential of this powerhouse character.
