Allonger le Bras (アームを延長 Āmu o enchō) in Japanese is an attack used by Lili since her debut in Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection. Sebastian can also perform the move in Tekken Tag Tournament 2. In Tekken 7, the attack is also a Power Crush.
Description[]
The user rears back their right arm before performing a strong, open-handed strike to the opponent's midsection.
Usage[]
A successful hit forces the enemy into a crumple stun, acting as a combo starter that can be used for a juggle, although the options are somewhat limited due to the move's recovery. In Tekken 7, the move is useful as a defensive comeback due to its Power Crush properties. In Tekken 8, however, this property is removed, but to compensate the strike is somewhat quicker than before. The move generally is better suited as a whiff punisher.
Trivia[]
- Allonger le Bras is French for "Extending of the Arm", which describes the actual movement itself.
- The strike previously would cause a specific brief camera angle change on hit, with receiving a more dynamic close up effect in Tekken 7 and Tekken 8. As of later patches in Tekken 8 however, this was removed, possibly as a way to make juggle combos easier to confirm into as the brief close up effect could make this harder to gauge.
