The Collective’s Katarina expert L.J.R. talks tournament nerves, secret tech, beating Dimeback, and more

If you play a underrepresented character exceptionally well in Tekken 7, there’s a chance you’ll end up on esports team The Collective. Including representing Nina player Victim of Ritual and Claudio player Amethystlady, The Collective is home to perhaps the rarest character specialist in the Tekken community — Katarina pro LJR.

Perhaps best known for his victories over Korean player Dimeback and Irish Pro Fergus at Final Round 2018, LJR shares his thoughts on balancing fun and performance, hiding tech, and the value of using “fake” setups.
