Master Bruce Irvin's 10-hit combo in Tekken 5! This guide breaks down the commands and strategy to help you land this powerful sequence and dominate your opponents.

Alright, let's talk about Bruce Irvin's moveset in Tekken 5. You're looking to learn his 10-hit combo, huh? It's a pretty solid sequence that can rack up some good damage if you land it. We'll go through the commands step-by-step, so don't worry if it looks a bit much at first. Just take your time with it. First off, Bruce has a lot of kicks and punches, and some of his best strings start with his basic jabs and straights. You'll see a lot of moves that chain into each other, which is key to building up those combos. Let's break down one of his more notable strings, the "10 hit combo" section in the movelist. It's not just one single combo, but rather a series of moves that can lead into each other. For example, you've got the "Bruce Rush" (1, 2, 1, 2) which is a good starting point. From there, you can branch out. Here are some of the key moves you'll be using: * Left Right Combo: 1, 2 (High, high) * Bruce Rush: 1, 2, 1, 2 (High, high, mid, mid) * Northern Lights Combination: 1, 2, 3 (High, high, mid) * One Two Mid Kick: 1, 2, 4 (High, high, mid) * One Two High Kick: 1, 2, f+4 (High, high, high) * One Two Low High Kick: 1, 2, d+4, 3 (High, high, low, high) And then there are the kicks: * Southern Cross Combination: 1, 4, 3 (High, high, mid) * Northern Lights: 2, 3 (High, mid) * Right Straight to Mid Kick: 2, 4 (High, mid) * Right Straight to High Kick: 2, f+4 (High, high) * Right Straight to Low High Kick Combo: 2, d+4, 3 (High, low, high) * Vulcan Combination: 3, 2, 1, 2 (Mid, mid, mid, mid) * Bruce Special: 3, 2, 1, 4 (Mid, mid, mid, low) * Shut Out Kick: 3, 3 (Mid, high) And some special moves to watch out for: * Cobra Sword: 4, f (High) * Sledge Hammer: 1+2 (Mid) * Triple Elbow Rush: f+1, 2 ,1 (High, high, mid) * Bulldog Bite: f+3 (Mid) * Triple Kick Rush: f+4, 3, 4 (Mid, mid, high) * Side Step Elbow: f+1+2 (High) * Double Elbow: d/f+1, 2 (Mid, mid) * Ti Sok Ran: d/f+2 (Mid) * Leg Slice Tornado Upper: d/f+3, 1 (Low, mid) * Trident Middle: d/f+4 (Mid) * Gatling Kicks: d/f+3+4, 3, 3, 3, 3 (Mid, mid, mid, mid, mid) * Rabid Bulldog: d+3, 4 (Low, high) * Trident Low: d+4 (Low) * Swaying Rabid Bulldog: d/b+3, 4 (Low, high) * Sway High Kick: d/b+4 (High) * Back Hand Blow: b+1 (High) * Stomping Kick: b+3 (High) * Stomping Straight Feint: b+3, 2 (High, high) * Stomping Knee Feint: b+3, 4 (High, mid) * Triple Knee Combo: b+4, 3, 4 (Mid, mid, mid) * Double Knee to Low Kick: b+4, 3, d+4 (Mid, mid, low) * Killing Blow: b+2+3 (!) * Jumping Elbow: u/f+1 (Mid) * Jumping Knee: u/f+3 (Mid) Now, the actual "10-Strings" in Tekken usually refer to specific, pre-defined combo sequences that a character has. While Bruce has many strings that can reach 10 hits or more if you extend them, the wiki doesn't list a single named "10-Strings: (13)" combo for him in Tekken 5. The closest you'll get is by chaining together some of these moves. For example, starting with a few jabs and then flowing into kicks can get you a long string. You'll need to practice linking these together to create your own long combos. Keep practicing these moves in training mode. You'll get a feel for the timing and spacing, and soon you'll be stringing together some impressive damage!
