I just don't understand why Bruce keeps getting left behind. He's got a real-life martial art as his fighting style, his moves are eye-catching without being over-the-top, he has a distinct look that fans can quickly identity, and he seems like a pretty decent guy other than working for a villain like Kazuya. What gives?
@@rmnhn one of my fave voice actors since the originals Hellsing series and early 2000 shows did one of our fav character...you my friend i would have never known thank you
I know there are already a thousand comments like this one, but I can only mirror what others are saying: I hope Bruce returns. He was such a badass and fun character
I don't understand. A fan favorite, well-designed character, powerful movelist... and simply replaced by, um, Josie? It's even one of Michael Murray's preferred characters. What, low character popularity? Oh, Harada's recurrent excuse for his whims. Xiaoyu is always at the bottom of the character usage list, yet she doesn't miss a game (gotta include all the waifus!). Same with bears.
Yeah, I'm calling BS on the low character popularity thing, when the likes of Ganryu, Panda, and Shaheen are favored over Bruce. Hell, Ganryu's low approval rate is canon, based on his Tekken 7 trailer.
Yeah the trolls will say Bruce has 1 fan asking for him he had one of the highest play rates in tag 2 his replacements have still yet to outshine him in design and moves ill stick to old Tekken for now
@@KortifexBruce is soo much better than josie and fahk he had enough moves to give clones...but instead of bringing him back they gave us 2 clones..what a joke
He has such cool combos though, why they haven't brought him back is beyond me. If they choose someone like josie or fahk again over bruce i'm going to lose my damn mind.
Bruce is the NFS series' rock music to Tekken series characters. Maybe I should talk about the nostalgic value and bias about this character, but I don't know where to start. It's going to feel crazier than the angry character beggars. If Bruce received GT7 Trial Mountain treatment in Tekken 8, where his b2 is nerfed, would y'all still play him?
@@mwkan772 Hard yes but it was fun times where you could play with all characters. Hopefully Bruce will come in Tekken 8 and also Wang Jinrei. Would like to see more interaction with him and Feng since Tekken 5.
@@SaiKisaragi Bruce is better than all of the Mishimas in Tekken 6 as well. His cd3 is only -12 on block in that game. Same kind of damage on his combos like in Tag 2.
0:22 For i15 df+5, it's worth mentioning that it's also an elbow (unparryable by most) and launches crouching opponents on normal hit, which is quite a big deal for a df+2. Though I remember it being jab punishable.
1:50 b+2 does not actually guarantee a CD+3 on hit. It is actually possible to get up and crouch block. But timing is very tight and you would risk getting picked up for a juggle by d+3,2 or even CD+2, so staying down and taking the CD+3 hit is usually the 'safer' option.
I landed a death combo once when I paired Bruce with Kazuya used to play with them...its Kazuya(rage) CH df2 pewgf ewgf (tag)bruce f1+2 df4 f1(bound) Kaz f df4 1 bruce f df3+4 3+4 (wall)f3 1 db2 1 4. TRY IT PLEASE
We need to add a tag to the X in a "legal" way and identify why we want to bring the character back. I believe that this way Harada would not feel attacked. Detail: I don't have X But for this reason, I'll download it now hahah
Hopefully Bruce returns in 8 because Josie was not a great substitute she’s a forgettable character who cried for no reason. Fuku isn’t a replacement but could be a rival to Bruce to see who is the better Muay Thai fighter. Like with rivalry in Street Fighter between Sagat and Adon.
Tekken Tag 2 had mega super potential. Best looking combos in tekken series. It’s too bad that due to low sales due to complex mechanics, Namco simply gave up on the game and did not fix the damage/rage damage, capos b14, etc
Bruce in TT2 dealt so much damage man especially if you were in a wall stage? Forget it he had everything. Good buttons, mix up potential (wall corner) and don’t let him be in rage mode 🤮🤮🤮. Really miss him hope he’s DLC for Tekken 8
Josie sucks and the copy using the originals moves isnt better and if she was it would reflect in character usage..she's new and people still want bruce lmao
Miss this wonderful character. So many reworks. Want to see him stick the landing in Tekken 8.
so true :(
Well...He worked for Kazuya before. I wish he should return.
It was the only way Harada could nerf Bruce. Eliminating his future appearances. As well as taking Knee down a notch to only Bryan.😢
hope he returns in tekken 8..
He was just too buff than bryan that's why they removed him
from being overpowered, but i hope he return as a dlc in tekken 8

B+2 is one of the most satisfying moves in all of Tekken. Sadly, it only exists as the last hit of Fahkumram's b+4,3,2 string in Tekken 7.
so true..
Don't forget Fahkumram's unblockable b1+4
I know there are already a thousand comments like this one, but I can only mirror what others are saying: I hope Bruce returns. He was such a badass and fun character
haha yes
That's the fastest low launcher I've ever seen
B2. A move that was so good you started and ended a combo with.
haha yeah
Looks like a total beast. I wish they bring him in T8...
same
god, bruce is so sick in tag 2, not bringing him back would be criminal
true :(
Bruce also has the second highest wall combo damage in Tekken Tag 2, after Marshall Law.
I see

If they bring back Fahkumram over Bruce I’m gonna be so mad
Hope we see bruce in Tekken 8
And no more Josie...
same
Indeed 👍
Let's hope we see him again in Tekken 8 season 1, 2, 3 or 4🤞🤞
yes^^
1:50 this was his main abuse tool in ttt2
i can see why haha
I can't believe Tekken 8 release with ZERO Muay Thai and Capoera characters. What are they thinking?
He has such cool combos though, why they haven't brought him back is beyond me. If they choose someone like josie or fahk again over bruce i'm going to lose my damn mind.
ok@TheHawkeye_66_
I would really like Prototype Jack to come back.
I never learned to play Bruce but i must say his b2 is one of the coolest looking moves in the game. Bring him back.
Man ikr and It leads to a full combo
Bruce was the first character I learned in tekken. I hope he makes an appearance in Tekken 8 one day 🥲
really hope he will
Bruce the king of tag games
Bamco didn't want to nerf Bruce so they made Josie instead. That way Bruce cannot visit them in their worst nightmares.
haha so true

they could nerf the damage but removing the combo would make the character look dumb
Bruce has sagat tiger uppercut 🎉
yes...
Bruce was my second main for Feng and he can pair with other characters so well that i play. TTT2 was unique withs lots lf content 😊
yes but a bit hard to play
@@mwkan772 Hard yes but it was fun times where you could play with all characters. Hopefully Bruce will come in Tekken 8 and also Wang Jinrei. Would like to see more interaction with him and Feng since Tekken 5.
I like how in every game Bruce is in (Except Tekken 5 and DR he was trash sadly) he can keep up and surpass the Mishimas.
How about Tekken 6?

@@noless lol, incredible, Bruce is.
Bruce was probably bad in those games because they were still trying to differentiate him from Bryan whilst also not losing his original identity.
@@SaiKisaragi he was stronger than all the mishimas even devil jin
Paul Phoenix and Bryan laughs at the corner
You didn't mention the damage he did with the cappos really mind blowing
Could someone breakdown the iWS 2,1 into d3, 4 combo? I just cant seem to get d3, 4 to connect.
Bruce was one of the coolest characters. Its a shame what has happened to both bruce and fahkumram aswell as ogre 1
Excellent video! Just a couple of things (which are same in T6) :
0:22 For i15 df+5, it's worth mentioning that it's also an elbow (unparryable by most) and launches crouching opponents on normal hit, which is quite a big deal for a df+2.
Though I remember it being jab punishable.
1:50 b+2 does not actually guarantee a CD+3 on hit. It is actually possible to get up and crouch block.
But timing is very tight and you would risk getting picked up for a juggle by d+3,2 or even CD+2, so staying down and taking the CD+3 hit is usually the 'safer' option.
Switching Settings require more execution than actual combo 💀
I mean, lets be honest here every move is OP with that 135% first hit damage scale lmao
haha yes
Jinpachi: "Hold my beer."
jinpachi was good but bruce was better in terms of combo damage
at launch theres going to be a 4 character pass so hopefully bruce is one of them❤❤
I think the devs have given up on him. Guess they couldn't figure out what to do with him.
yes I hope the same
Super dope! Thanks for sharing this.
my pleasure^^
I would pair him with Asuka. Getting that ws1+2 into guaranteed f2, tag in Bruce, near 100% life combo every time
bruce's damage was insane
Bruce/Eddy, Bruce/Raven, and Bruce/Angel were my favorite tags Hon.mention Angel/A.Orgre
I landed a death combo once when I paired Bruce with Kazuya used to play with them...its Kazuya(rage) CH df2 pewgf ewgf (tag)bruce f1+2 df4 f1(bound) Kaz f df4 1 bruce f df3+4 3+4 (wall)f3 1 db2 1 4. TRY IT PLEASE

Why oh why don’t they bring him back? Yet we get trash like lucky Chloe…
I’m gonna lose my shit when tekken tag 3 comes out.
i think he will be a dlc in tekken 8
You should do tag 1 changs next
sure^^
what about Eddy with his infamous CH
I will cover him
i wish Joie had a version of his b2 and 4f
was never a huge fan of him but i do like Josie
The only way for Harada to nerf Bruce was to ban him from the game himself 😂
Eddy and lars ,they can literally delete 100% health with one combo
Hopefully Bruce returns in 8 because Josie was not a great substitute she’s a forgettable character who cried for no reason. Fuku isn’t a replacement but could be a rival to Bruce to see who is the better Muay Thai fighter. Like with rivalry in Street Fighter between Sagat and Adon.
so true
Don't say that to Murray. If you say Fahk vs Bruce he'll say "Bruce isn't Muay Thai" 🙄
i want him back in t8 :(
T5DR was my favorite Bruce.
Was also the weakest Bruce
My fav character
Tekken Tag 2 had mega super potential. Best looking combos in tekken series.
It’s too bad that due to low sales due to complex mechanics, Namco simply gave up on the game and did not fix the damage/rage damage, capos b14, etc
true
Paul or Bruce, whose damage is more ridiculous?
paul's combo damage and wall carry was no way near bruce
Thank you a nice video for bruce from this Fahkuhmram wtf name is that & josie clones
What are the top 5 characters in this game?
Bob, Lars, Devil Jin, Jinpachi, Heihachi.
bob lars devil jin heihachi jinpachi
Seems OP ..
bruce was a totally diffrent beast in tag 1 , most broken character in tag 1
So the df 3 in tekken six was punishable and in tag 2 it's safe,wow
Bruce in TT2 dealt so much damage man especially if you were in a wall stage? Forget it he had everything. Good buttons, mix up potential (wall corner) and don’t let him be in rage mode 🤮🤮🤮.
Really miss him hope he’s DLC for Tekken 8
I hope the same
B2! B2! B2!
:D
I’ll take Forest, Christie, and Master Raven over their predecessors, and I’ll take Bruce over his over designed gargantuan successor.
Lmfao the dmg is wild
indeed lol
Is this why he wasn't in T7?
compiling shaders
tutorial on how to play this on pc pls
download rpcs3
download tag 2 rom from roms pure
boot the game from rpcs3
play
This makes up for him being so weak in Tekken 5.
I seriously don't care for Tekken 8, but if they decide to bring back Bruce, I may just buy me a copy just for him.
I really hope he will be back in tekken 8
브루스 나와라...
You could shut ur brain off and play with him
This damage isn't nothing lol pair him with Eddy unbelievable damage
Ikr? With Bruce, Eddy CH B1, 4 would kill you straight away. Rage or no rage
I will make a separate video eddy as well
Josie better😊
