Content creator King Jae has released a new tier list for version 1.09 of Tekken 8. Within this tier list, the top 11 characters have been properly ordered.
Similar to what we’ve seen from other tier lists, King Jae’s tier list has Dragunov, Yoshimitsu, Nina, Jin, and Alisa labeled as the best characters in the game. Dragunov is consistently being viewed as the overall best character in Tekken 8.
Law, Shaheen, Feng, Lili, Xiaoyu, and King can be found in the second highest tier category. This implies that these characters are also viable at the tournament level.
Eddie Gordo and Heihachi Mishima, two of the three DLC fighters released so far, appear to be about equal in the A tier group. However, Lidia Sobieska seems to be the weakest of the bunch as she’s been positioned in the category below Eddie and Heihachi’s.
At the very least, Lidia has avoided being positioned in the lowest tier group. This suggests that she’s at least better than three other characters in Tekken 8.
According to King Jae, the worst characters right now are Panda, Lars, and Raven. It’s also interesting to note that Kuma is two tier categories above Panda despite them being very similar due to Kuma having access to the Electric Wind God Fist.
