• u, d, b, f (up, down, back, forward) for directions.
• u/f (up-forward), d/b (down-back), 1+2 (left punch-right punch), and so on, are for combined inputs that require the simultaneous pressing of two buttons.
• In the case of “F,” hold the forward input instead of a tap.

Leo combo examples in Tekken 8

During Fo Bu (d, 1+2) 2> f, 3> u/f, 1, 1> d/b, 2, 4

Here's a combo for Leo that any Tekken 8 beginner can execute. It converges the confusing Fo Bu stance into the powerful Fan Lan Chui launch, which sets up the target for a juggle.

d/f, 2> 4> during Heat, b, 2, 1+2, F> 3, 2, 3> b, 1+2, 1+2, qcf, 2

The Heat system extends the combo game for many fighters, and Leo is no exception. It kicks off with a classic Sheng Pao launch, which is quite easy to land on an opponent. Now, all you have to do is carefully unleash the back inputs to carry the target across the map.

While rising, 2> b, 1, 1+2> 1> f, 3, D> during Fo Bu, 1, 2> d/b, 2, 4

This combo might be difficult to execute, but it can certainly catch an opponent by surprise with its rising attack as an opener. Be careful of the forward and back inputs to seamlessly execute the movestring.
