sneaky_coyote shares a resource guide for Tekken 7’s Master Raven

Master Raven is one of the more unorthodox characters in Tekken 7. She lacks a standard hopkick, has poor punishment options, and relies heavily on advanced stance and crouch dash use. None of this means she’s a bad character (far from it!) but it does mean she has a learning curve that could prove daunting to new players.

That’s why a guide like sneaky coyote’s is so useful. More then just frame data, this guide gives a detailed breakdown of every move, its risk, and its usefulness. Since a large chunk of learning a character is just breaking down a move-set, this guide is a great starting point for Apprentice Ravens.

Capcom has released “Tamaya” — a web-based bomb mini-game starring Ibuki

Looking for a diversion from your 9-to-5 job until you get home and body online scrubs in Street Fighter V — and after 27 years, Minesweeper is no longer cutting it? Capcom was thinking about you when they developed their most recent release — and all you need is a web browser.

Named Tamaya, the game involves you picking up firework bombs and bringing them back to your base. You can also pick up black bombs and carry them to your opponents’ bases to wipe out their cache of bombs. The person with the highest amount of bombs at the end of the game wins.

This game supports four players and matches you up at random, and is quite addicting. Say goodbye to your productivity when you start to play.
