Turns out I was incorrect-----Frosty Faustings is a high profile event. But, it was only hosted on Tampa Never Sleep's channel. FF isn't actually in Tampa.
However! Tampa Never Sleeps has their own tournament. and they posted the top 8 from the "Pools" matches, today:

On a side note: Twitch now has a multicast feature, for people to send the same stream in different bitrates/codecs/resolutions, to give their audience more options. I think its early days for the features, but Nvidia has partnered with OBS to support it.
In result, I hope this also means OBS will expand the options for doing a local recording, while also streaming. It would be really great if these fighting game tournaments could start doing 1440p or 4K local recordings, while also serving up lower quality streams. So that when they post on youtube, its a high res/higher bitrate local copy. Rather than stream quality, directly downloaded VOD from Twitch.
King seems to be really strong, this early in T8's life.^ That guy's King is great. I love that King players are able to grab a lot in T8. Breaks are no longer free, and those grabs open so many other things up.

Personally, I think the damage for most of his grabs is probably too high Vs. how tough it is to cancel a grab. Especially his multi-part grabs. And some of them don't seem to be cancelable. Such as when you are airborne and he grabs you.
The advice given in this vid applies to way more than just Tekken or videogames.

Offline tournament, Orlando FL. Still watching this one myself.

Definitely some great combo and move knowledge, in this event. KingRey's Asuka impresses even more. And its really apparent in his fighting style, that Asuka's heat activation has better range than some other characters.Making my way through this. The fight between Victor (Hornzisbadgg) and Asuka (KingRey Jr) is good. KingRey has some pretty interesting style with Asuka. With an incredible combo extension at 18:10. And another similar moment, later in the fight.
They demonstrated several moves with Eddie, for like 15 minutes.I generally don't give Jin any room to breathe and I haven't fought that many. Devil Jin tends to throw me off for the first round/match, but I feel like I can mostly figure out his tricks if they don't bail after one match. He and Alisa are like the Blanka of Tekken. Jun is a total bitch, although I find people using her love using that low multi-sweep that I can block and hop-kick for huge damage. Feels like her damage against the wall is excessive, though. Her, Bryan, Yoshi, Steve, and Dragunov seem to ignore damage scaling against the wall. With King, his combos scale waaaay down off walls, but he has a lot of wall-specific moves and setups.
I'd assume the patch is probably at least a month out. They showed Eddie's character portrait, but no actual game footage. Once some footage of him starts showing up is when the patch will likely be imminent.
Here's an example. People do this all the time. Its pretty much a standard tactic. Basic combo, extend with generic heat engager, basic combo.Does using a heat engager during a combo give you another tornado or something? I don't see how it would extend a combo otherwise. I haven't done this myself, so I'm genuinely curious.
I feel like many of the things which youtube videos have been pointed out as "broken"-----don't seem to matter much. Maybe its too early, but, its not like tournaments are being dominated by Jun or Xiaouyu, etc.Today I learned that Jun's reversal stops grabs. She snags your arms almost like you were punching her. I guess they full-on removed the "chicken" reversal counter in Tekken 8, too. This is wack.

Additionally, I think on the face of it, its good that characters have some unique abilities. Maybe those abilities will prove too effective, eventually. We will see!
At this point, it seems that all characters are good and in the hands of a skilled player, can win.
