Because of this, Eliza tends to represent two opposing playstyles in a match, switching between patiently waiting for an opportunity in neutral and suffocating opponents with continuous pressure once close. Eliza lacks strong pokes in neutral, and her best get-in options carry some inherent risk. However, making use of these strong points is not that simple. With a variety of special cancels, stance mix-ups, and wall pressure, Eliza leans more towards an aggressive, rushdown playstyle. Eliza's real forte lies in her mix-up potential. Tekken 8 also signals the return of the recoverable gauge in health bars from the Tekken Tag series, meaning that if you take damage, a small portion of the health bar remains white. This leads to her having a relatively flexible playstyle and unique quirks like very challenging but strong block punishment. TEKKEN8The Mistress of the DarkA sultry and mysterious fighter, Eliza is a master of the ancient martial art of the Royal Vampire Style. Typically, Heat status lasts about 10 seconds, but the effect can be extended through attacking your opponent, delivering on that theme of aggression. While not excelling in either of those categories, she benefits well from both. PlaystyleĮliza is an exciting mix between overtly 2D characters and traditional Tekken. She wears red high heels, black stockings, rose vines on her shins, and a dress that mixes victorian era and gothic lolita designs with a bright red corset, puffy arm sleeves, frilly skirt, and long coattails. AppearanceĮliza is an extremely pale woman with red eyes, short black hair with very long sidelocks, prominent horns on her head, and a large black tattoo going from her chest to her neck. Despite her status as a powerful and relatively old vampire, she's also not opposed to putting on some theatrics and being playful. Still, at the same time, her propensity to fall asleep and tire quickly tends to make her threats or boasting a lot less intimidating. As a vampire over 1000 years old, she's confident in her abilities and tends to treat opponents as prey. Unfortunately, their conversation is cut short by Eliza's nap. Before she can do that, Eliza is confronted by Emillie De Rochefort, who suddenly claims to be her sister. She defeats him in battle, but it leaves her too tired to do much else, prompting Eliza to return home for rest. Upon invading their HQ, Eliza finds a suitable source of sustenance - Claudio Serafino. Perhaps among their current members, there would be someone powerful enough to restore Eliza to her original state and satiate her hunger. At a loss for where to find someone like that in the current era, Eliza pursued her only option, Archer of Sirius.įor a long time, this group of exorcists has been making her living more difficult. She needed more potent blood from someone with considerable spiritual force. Trying to get them back, she attacked and feasted on the blood of a few victims, but that wasn't enough. In an amusing twist, Harada also revealed that he was the one who ended up throwing her on the cutting room floor.Instead of her planned short nap, Eliza entered a 600-year long slumber, awakening with much of her power gone. It was at this point that Harada stepped in, intimating that Eliza was already ready for Tekken 6 but it was forfeited. He then thanked Harada and the team who were behind her creation. The discussion started from a post by Fighting Game Girl of the Day who featured Eliza as the character of the day to which a user commented that while he usually isn't one to fall head over heels for fictional girls, he does consider Eliza a perfect character. It has been revealed that she would have been in Tekken 6 and had already been planned by Harada. But, she was eventually cut from the game and would only come around a little later. She has not been announced for Tekken 8, but there is a possibility she will eventually make the roster at some point in the game's lifespan. She would join the main series in Tekken 7. She was introduced in Tekken Revolution after a fan poll. Tekken Game Director, industry legend, Katsuhiro Harada has come up with another lore drop this time for the 1000-year-old vampire, Eliza.
