- For the Arcade mode rank named "Legend", please see Arcade mode#Ranking
This legend explains how to read the various movelists found on the Tekkenpedia as well as any move/juggle FAQ, about a Tekken-character, found anywhere on the web. Important note! A comma (,) is used to separate input. If there is no space between the inputs, it means that it is part of the same move/combo. If there is a space, it means that it is part of a new move (this is typically seen in juggle-FAQs).
For example 1,2,2 would be one move (Heihachi Mishima's Demon Slayer), while 1,2, 2 are two moves (the second 2 would be a regular right punch).
