・Yuu / TeamYAMASA
Yuu is a legend who has been a top player on the front line since the Tekken 5 era.
He maintains a good balance of offence and defence. He makes speedy and calculated judgements for the next move in a play and often showcases outstanding performance that excites the audience.
Yuu and his team mate, NOBI, began their journey as the first professional Tekken gamers in 2015. Yuu is a leading person with outstanding accomplishments not only in Japan but also around the world.
・TAKE / TeamYAMASA
TAKE excels in defence like an iron wall called “the strongest shield in Japan”.
His play style, which gives his opponent a sense of despair, is often called the “ultimate Tekken style” that only he can reproduce.
He is a dad who devotes his life to Tekken, making a living out of Tekken for his wife and children. With his conscientious and dedicated personality, he has recently achieved a new highest record as a Japanese player in EVOLUTION 2019.
・NOBI / TeamYAMASA
NOBI has won first place in the World Competition three times, which marks his performance as at the highest level in Japan.
In Tekken 7, where “defensive style” is the mainstream, his super-attack approach attracts the audience and beats the opponent with overwhelming pressure.
His unique personality has helped him to gain popularity in competitions and streaming videos.
He has been contracted to do “Tekken training” by the Game Centre and has recorded several thousand bookings so far. As the training is so popular, the bookings are filled on the same day.
