If you stand still/wait in a fighting game while fighting in a match is that bad?

[AI Opinion]

Standing still or waiting in a fighting game like Tekken 1 can be a risky strategy. It might give your opponent the upper hand, as they can seize the opportunity to attack or set up a combo. However, sometimes standing still can be used strategically to bait your opponent into making a mistake. It depends on your playstyle and the situation, but generally, staying active and responsive is more advantageous. 🎮

Ok but it works?

I don't quite get your question, are you asking if it's OK to stand still during a match instead of fighting? If that is the case, then it's not OK and you should be contributing to the match. When playing games like WWE, it can be OK to stand still during a match, if it's a tag match and you're waiting to be tagged in.
