Have you fallen victim to Tekken 8's latest vigilante? An Eddy Gordo hero that's wreaking havoc online
A new hero is lurking in the lower ranks of Tekken 8 right now. JinMashima is dominating not only the Twitch.tv Tekken 8 category, but also the ranked ladder by mashing a single button over and over. Through repeatedly slamming 3 as hard and fast as they can, the whold world is witness to perhaps the purest Eddy Gordo experience of all time. The experiment started several days ago out of nowhere, with JinMashima booting up the stream with a simple layout. No webcam, no added background music nor notifications or sub goals. The only added feature to their stream is a fightstick button layout in the bottom left of the screen, on which you can see the 3 button repeatedly mashed at all times. Don't believe me? You can check the stream out right here. It's been a bumpy road for JinMashima, with the ranked grind ranging from hilarious highs to humbling lows. As of writing, the peak rank hit by the player is the orange ranks of vanquisher and destroyer in which they have a negative win-rate by all accounts. If we compare that to the published February ranked distribution among Tekken 8 players, this puts an Eddy player using a single button at a higher skill level as 44.83% of players. Think about that for a second. Read more
