Intruducktion of Heihachi Mishima:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Many people would probably disagree with me and say that Heihachi isen't much to
cheer about and he can't even reach the level of the other combants in
TekkenTagTournament, well that couldn't be more untrue, in fact he could be one
of the deadliest, IF you play him right. Of course Heihachi has his Strenghts
and weaknesses like every other character in the game. And below i would try to
explain some of his mayor Strenghts and weaknesses.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strenghts and Weaknesses:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Strengths:

As the no.1 juggle master of the intire game, most of your strategy should be to
either be offensive and go for juggles during almost the whole fight,or to play
defensive and wait for your opponent to make a mistake and retaliate with a
combo starter, both strategies works exelent, i myself play a very offensive
Heihachi pressuring the opponent during the whole fight, but as said above you
can also play Heihachi defensevly and catch up on opponent's mistakes. Heihachi
has a few ways to juggle the opponent up in the air. His main ones include The
Wind God Fist, witch should be your most used juggle starter, the Demon Uppercut
whitch should be executed from a distance and last the Twin Pistons whitch can
be used very well both offensive and defensive.

-Weaknesses-

One of Heihachi's main weakness is his lack of Attack Reversal or Low parry,
this often forces you to play a more offensive gameplay unlike, Nina.Paul and
Jin who play defense very well, again he has his Demon Breath whitch work's sort
of like a reversal but is not fast enough to catch strings of punches and kicks,
also keep in mind that when you get hit by a right kick you will automaticly
reverse it if you press f, it takes about the same damage to the opponent as to
Heihachi. Also his lack of a sidestep move isen't the best so if your get to
sidestep around your opponent go for a throw insted, also his Hell Sweeps are
almost useless in TTT since it only recuires to hold down for the opponent to
block, other than that he is a very powerfull character inded.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Heihachi basics-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One thing you should keep in mind when playing Heihachi is that he's not as fast
as the most other character's in TTT, hell i like to see you do a jumping power
bomb at 73 years of age(or just now), so to not make it totally unrealistic
NAMCO disited to slow him down a bit down, he has pretty recovery time of most
of his moves and has a great selection of devastating power moves.

Heihachi retrieved the Mishima Finansial Empire by defeating his son. Scheming
to further develop the MFE, Heihachi organized the "Tekken Force," his own
private corps. He dispathed them to seattle disputes, cultivate the wastelands,
and feed the starving people of poor countries. This gained him the support of
leaders worldwide. 15 years later later, a secret exvation by Heihachi's "Tekken
Forces" in central American ruins unearths an unusal find. They annihlated by
that mysterious being. Heihachi realized that the mysterious being was the
legendary "God Of Fight," and took action to realize his ambition again...to
counquer the "god Of Fight" and the world. One day, Heihachi was visited by a
15-year-old named Jin Kazama. When he was informed that Jin was his grandson and
he heard about what happened to Jin's mother Jun, Heihachi reasoned that the
"God Of Fight" thrived on the "strong Souls" of others. Heihachi trained Jin,
who succeded the souls of Jun and Kazuya, to use him as a decoy to lure the "God
Of Fight." In Jin's 19th year, Heihachi declared to the world that he was
organizing "the King of Iron Fist Tournement 3." And at the same time he noticed
that Jin, the youngest of the Mishima bloodline, began to carry the same
"dangerous power that Kazuya had. Heihachi decided to dispose of Jin after he
lured the "God Of Fight" in order to end the doomed destiny.

-Special Attacks-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Shining Fists 1,1,2 ***** 3rd punch can be delayed.

The Shining Fists is one of Heihachi best moves, the first two hit high and the
last mid, use it when your in close combat, if the first punch of the series hit
the two next are guaranteed, you can either put all three jabs out but if a
opponent blocks it he can retaliate against you, you can delay the third hit of
the Flash Punch Combo so it's much safer to just put the first two jabs out and
if they try to attack throw in the last punch, otherwise start the two punches
over again for more fustration.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Demon Slayer 1,2,2 ** N/A

The Demon Slayer is not a very good move for Heihachi they all hit high witch
means you can duck them all and combo Heihachi up afterwards, all in all not a
move you should relia on.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Death Fist QCT+2 *** ARR with Nina use f+2+4,
Jin and Paul use u/f+2+4.
The Heavy Power Punch is one of Heihachi's better moves, although it's not as
powerfull and fast as Poul's Deathfist it's still hold it's own, use it when
your opponent is recovering from a missed attack, you can also try to put it out
randomly hoping your get a counterattack in on your opponent when it hits clean
it takes about 54 point of your opponets lifebar, also watch out for reversals
and always do the counterreversal when playing against opponets with
attackreversals.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Wind God Fist f,N,d,d/f+2 *** N/A

The Wind God Fist was without a doubt Heihachi's best move in Tekken 3 their was
so many good things to say about this move, first of all it hit a devastating
mid level unlike jins, and you could delay it for about a quarter of a screen,
Heihachi also ducked down so low that he will go under any high attack, all in
all this was one of the best moves in game, but now it's been toned down quite a
bit, first of all if the opponent ducks he just stackers back when hit instead
of popping up in the air it's also not as fast as it was in tekken 3 and don't
have as much range anymore, i guess you could kind of compare to Kazuya's rising
uppercut back in Tekken 2 it hit mid and would juggle every time, then in Tekken
3 when Jin got it, it hit high and wouldn't juggle on a counter, but still
Heihachi's rising uppercut is one of his best moves all in all.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Dragon Uppercut f,N,d,d/f+1 *** 52 points at clean hit.

The Dragon Uppercut is much slower than the Rising Uppercut, it hit's mid and
if you get a clean hit you take abot 52 point of your opponents lifebar, the
Dragon Uppercut should mainly be used if your oppoent is going for a throw or
throwing out alot of high attacks as Heihachi ducks lower down than the hell
sweeps, the Dragon Uppercut can also be delayed as the rising uppercut.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Demon Uppercut f,f+2 *** N/A

The Demon Uppercut has great range but is easy to see comming and you can be
counted a million ways, it's best yoused a at distance as it comes out very
slow, another way to use it is in very close and force your opponent to guess
weiter you are going for the Demon Uppercut or the Stonehead as the joystick
motion f,f is the same. Overall this move shouldent be overused.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Tile Splitter d+1 ***** N/A

I have chosen to rate the two moves sapretly as the hammer punch is a great move
in it self, first of all it's a great poking weapon and when your opponent is on
the ground and try to get up, you can also use it in combo endings if the
opponent's slow to get up, and after the stonehead throw if your oppoent don't
quick rise.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Tile Splitter to D.F. d+1,2 ** ARR the D.F.with Nina f+2+4
Paul/Jin with u/f+2+4.
The only reson for the follow up to the hammerpunch is if your sure you can get
a counter hit in on your oppoent, or if your opponent try to back roll after a
throw, in general is better to just use the first of the two hits.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Jumping Mid/Low Kick f,N,d,d/f(D/F)+3 **** N/A

The Jumping Mid/Low Kick is another evil moves of Heihachi's as your opponent
has to guees wheither to block mid or low, it should be used at a distance as it
is takes very long time for it to come out, a great setup for the Jumping
Mid/Low Kick is if the Demon Breath hits counter the opponent will be blast a
mill away a land on his back so he can't quick rise then throw out the kick, low
for a quick kick but if you want to inflict even more damage do the mid if you
think your oppoent will try to get up, do this evil setup mid or low a few times
and your opponent whould not know wheither to get up and block the low kick or
eat a devastating mid attack.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Demon's Boar b+2 * Can't be Reversed.

Not to much to say about this move, it takes forever for this move to come out
and can be spotted a mile away, the only reson for you to use this move is if
you think your opponent will try to reverse, as it can't be reversed.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Demons Breath 1+2 ***** N/A

The Demon Breath is another awesome move it comes out lightning fast and should
be mainly used to counter opponents when they try to attack it sort of works
like a reversal, but only use it when in close against your opponent cause it
has almost no range, this should be used a least a couple of times douring a
round.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Dark Thrust ws+2 *** N/A

The dark Thrust is a new move for Heihachi in TTT, mainly it's best used when
you succesfully blocked a low move use it to retaliate against people when your
getting up.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Twin Pistons d/f+1,2 ***** N/A

The Twin Pistons is another of Heihachi's best moves, although the damage is
slightly toned down from back in tekken 2 it still rocks, it's best used
defensly, it hit's mid and if the first punch goes in the other is garentied,
it's best used when you block an attack from your oppoent that has slow recovery
quickly throw it out and juggle your opponent up in the air for a fat 60+ combo,
you can also use the Twin Pistons offense but that's not the greatest idea cause
if the oppoenent block he can easyly retaliate of it with just about any quick
move.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Leaping Side Kick f,f,f+3 ** Can't be Reversed.

Not much to say about this move either, use it to get back in to fighting range
if you find your self out in "the woods".

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Hell Sweeps f,N,d,D/F+4(4)(4) *** N/A

Next after the WGF the Hell Sweeps was Defently Heihachi's best weapon(and most
evil)in Tekken 3, well first of all the Hell Sweeps hit low making it even
harder for your opponent and forceing him to block low and had to guess wheither
to block low one,two or three times and then high cause Heihachi was able to
break into a devastating mid at all time, yes it was defently something to cheer
about, but in TTT it's almost useless since the opponent can block at all time
just by blocking low, use it in juggles mainly, and try getting a counterhit.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Rising Sun u/f+4,4 * N/A

The Rising Sun is a sort of like Kazuya/Jin's Thriple Round House Spin Kick only
not half as usefull i can't think of a single reson to use it, although it's fun
to frustrate people who never tried the game before at an arcade.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Alter Spiltter b+1 *** N/A

The Alter Splitter is also a new move for Heihachiin TTT, one of the better new
moves Heihachi has been given, it's sort of like the Tile Splitter only you
can't hit an opponent when he's trying to get up, if you land a counterhit the
opponent moves slightly back and you have the option for eiter going for a throw
or a quick attack, don't overuse this move to much as you can be punished bad if
the opponent catches on to it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Rights Splits Kick f+4 * N/A

Almost just as useless as the Rising Sun, i can't really think of a good reson
to use this move either.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Left Splits Kick f,f+3 **** Stuns on a Counterhit.

Now where really getting some where, unlike the Right Splits Kick the Left
Splits Kick Really Rocks, and if it connect on a counterhit it stuns whitch
means you can you can juggle them up for a devastating 90+combo, this is
defently Heihachi's answer to Kazuya's stun punch back in tekken 2.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Lightning Hammer d+1+4 *** UNBLOCKABLE.

The Lightning Hammer is Heihachi's Unblockable move, use it mostly to catch slow
opponent's of guard, a good setup move to use is when a opponent quick rises or
roll backwards after a juggle or a throw, but do not overuse this move as it is
very easy to get punished, also when Heihachi is in this "stance" and the
opponent hit's you with a right kick they will automacticlly get caught in his
"auto reversal".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:

Tsunami Kick WS+4,4 *** N/A

The Tsunami Kick's is a "Heihachi Classic", it's best used when having
succesfully blocked a low attack or if you duck a throw quickly throw out these
powerfull kicks.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Demons Massacre/Lair: f+1,b+2,1(4) *** The second hit
Staggers when blocked.
The Demon Massacre is mainly used as a part of a juggle, if you use them
otherwise just throw out the first two hit's when in close if they hit they will
just take avrage damage, however if your opponent block's it, try throwing out
the Twin Pistons cause if they don't do anything else but block they will eat
the Twin Pistons and again you can juggle them up for a 60+combo. There is
however not much idea in use the Demons Lair as it is basicly just a slower
vision of the Demons Massacre.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Hell Axle u/f+3,4 *** Staggers when blocked.

The Hell Axle Kick's Should mainly be used to cath opponent's of guard, both
kicks hit mid level so try mixing it up with the throws when in close to get in
your opponent's face forcing them to guess wheter to block mid or low, the Axle
kicks can however also be used to get back into fighting range as they have
incredible long range.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Demon Backfist f+2 ** N/A

The Demon Backfist is another new move for Heihachiin TTT, there is not to much
to say about this move it hit's high making it even easier for the opponent to
rataliate against you or ducking it and combo you.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Geta Stomping d+4 *** Hit's downed
Opponent's only.
The Geta Stomp is another "Heihachi Classic" you can only use it when the
opponent is down on the floor, so if you are playing against a "Tekken pro" it's
not a move you get to use very often as they will often try to quickrise,
However you can use it afterwards the Demon Breath if you get a counter hit as
you can not "quick Rise" from that as the Demon Breath is probely the most slow
recovery move in the intire game.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Demon Executer 1,2,2,1+2(u,d to ss)* N/A

The Demon Excuter is another useless move of Heihachi's, the first to puches of
the three jabs series hit's high and then end's in the Demon Breath you can
sidestep after the Demon Breath,i can't think of a single reson to use this move
at any time, it better to just stick with the Demon Breath as it has ten time's
more praorathies.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movename: Command: Rating: Comments:
Demon Scissors 4,3 *** If missed, damage is
five points to Heihachi.
The Demon Scissors is another "Heihachi Classic" is main purpese is to hit
people who like to lai on the ground for to long, or people who's not "Quick
Rising", try thowing it out after a juggle combo for fat damage if the opponent
isen't used to "Quick Rise".

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Throws-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Throw Name: Command: Rating: Escape:
Neck Breaker 1+3 ** 1

Heihachi grabs the opponent in a headlock holds them for a while while sparks
fly and snaps their neck. The Neck Breaker is a throw i hardly never use, it
dosen't take much damage and is easy to escape, a move you shoulden't use to
often.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Throw Name: Command: Rating: Escape:
Jumping Power Bomb 2+4 *** 2

Heihachi grabs around the opponent's waste lift them up and then jump up into
the air and slams them down on the ground. Like the Neck Breaker this is throw
you woulden't use to since it's easy to escape, but somehow pepole seams more
often to escape the Neck Breaker much more than the Jumping Power Bomb, if you
use the Stone Head alot and pepole get used to it and start to get out of it
switch over to the stonehead as it requires the 1+2 escape.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Throw Name: Command: Rating: Escape:
Stone Head f,f+1+2 ***** 1+2

Heihachi grabs the opponet in the back of the head ans land's a deep headbutt
and the opponent fall on his back. The Stone Head is defently Heihachi's best
throw, since it requires the 1+2 escape, also when in close try to mix the Stone
Head throw up with the Demon Uppercut since it recuires the same f,f motion for
extra fusration.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Throw Name: Command: Rating: Escape:
Headbutt Carnival f,f+1+4 * 1+2

Heihachi grabs the opponent in the back of the head and land's a deep headbutt
while sparks fly and the opponent fly across the screen. The Headbutt Carnival
is a move that you should avoid at all costs, the only reson if even given 1
star is because from time to time it can be fun to "juggle" the Headbutt back
and forward from the opponent's, now about the throw first of it can only be
used on certain charaters Jin,Paul,Lei,Heihachi and kuma and they can reverse it
at all time, the damage of the throw is also less than the Stone Head throw, so
only use this throw for fun and NOT in tournamentplay.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Throw Name: Command: Rating: Escape:
Neck Chopper 1+3or2+4 *** 1

Heihachi grabs the opponent from the left side and takes the opponent down on
his knee and raises his arm while sparks fly and strikes down on the opponent's
chest. Since Heihachi has no sidesteps move, you gonna have to go for a throw if
you wanna inflict damage during a sidestep, Heihachi has a pretty good sidestep
so getting in a sidethrow shouldn't be to hard,note that the throw can be broken
easy just by pressing 1.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Throw Name: Command: Rating: Escape:
Freefall 1+3or2+4 *** 2

Heihachi grabs the opponent from the right side and lift's him up in one arm and
slams him down on floor. Like the Neck Chopper use as an alternate way to
inflict damage since Heihachi have no sidesteps attack, note that is also very
easy to escape since it only recuires one button.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Throw Name: Command: Rating: Escape:
Atomic Drop 1+3or2+4 *** 0

Heihachi grabs the opponent from the back and lift's him up while sparks fly,
and then drop him on his knee. The Atomic Drop can not be escaped but it's not
often you get to use this throw since you gotta either sidestep twice or the
opponent gatta come out with a long hitting attack while your sidestepping.
However if you manage to pull this of you get a throw that is inscapeable with a
good damage for about 60+ damage.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Throw Name: Command: Rating: Escape:
"Tag throw" 2+5 *** 2

The Tag throws mainly purpose is to tag out in a fancy sort of way or mainly
just to show of as it looks very cool, every character in the game has this
throw.
