Tackles
From Tekkenpedia
- NB! This currently only applies for post-Tekken 3 games, as we haven't tested prior games sufficiently.
All characters have the ability to tackle an enemy during a run. The run has to be 11-18 steps and can tackle standing, ducking and back turned opponents. However, a few select characters can tackle from a standing possition via a move called Ultimate Tackle (Craig Marduk is an exception to both, but this will be explained later)
