Tekken 6/Bound

Overview

The Bound system enables characters to "slam" their opponent into the ground during a combo, causing them to bounce and become vulnerable to follow-up attacks. This mechanic was designed to increase combo depth and variety, giving players more options for damage and creativity in their offensive game.

How It Works

• A combo typically starts with a launcher (e.g., an uppercut or sweep).
• After several hits in the air, a specific move can trigger a Bound state.
• The opponent will be slammed into the ground and bounce up in a crumpled state.
• Players can then continue the combo, usually for a limited number of hits.

Bound Moves

Bound moves vary by character and can include:

• Certain special mids or lows (e.g., Hwoarang's ``f+3,4``)
• Specific enders that "slam" the opponent down
• Wall splat or floor break transitions in stages (where applicable)

Rules and Limitations

• Each combo can only include **one Bound**.
• Wall combos can incorporate Bound but are subject to scaling.
• Not all moves that appear to "slam" the opponent are considered Bound starters.
• Bound cannot be re-triggered once it's already used within the same combo.
