Gates of Hell is a command grab and one of several Command Input Special Moves exclusive to Kazuya.
How to perform
Within grab range, the player must perform ↘ ↓ ↘ + grab input. If done correctly, Kazuya's arms will glow red prior to the grab as a sign that the input was successful. If it connects, a special camera angle activates in 1-on-1 battles. Kazuya will then force the opponent to the other side of him, bend them back and kick them away, making it a useful tool when cornered to reverse the situation. Being the most damaging throw in the game, Gates of Hell is a powerful tool for bringing opponents into KO range, though its follow-up potential on its own isn't great. The knockback angle is extremely steep, gimping characters with poor recoveries at high percentages on its own. Because the input is tied to the A part of R+A — the macro a grab button input uses — Gates of Hell cannot be used out of shield.
Origin
Gates of Hell originated in Tekken 5 as an exclusive command throw for Kazuya and has been a staple in his kit ever since. The throw deals relatively high damage, though not quite on the level of grapplers like King II's Giant Swing. It's normally used as a surprise option in high-level play.
Trivia
- This is the second throw in the game to have the word "Hell" in its name. The first is Hell Wheel, Ken's back throw.
- It is also the third move in general to have the word, the first being Hell Wheel, as above, and the second being Hell's Gate, Sephiroth's down aerial.
- Unlike the others, Gates of Hell is actually referred to as such in Kazuya's in-game moveset guide, whereas the other two are only known as such in the tips.
- It is also the third move in general to have the word, the first being Hell Wheel, as above, and the second being Hell's Gate, Sephiroth's down aerial.
