However, my parents relocated to Memphis while I was still a baby so I was definitely raised in Memphis. First, are you originally from Tennessee – born and raised? Let’s some background so people know who you are man. Therefore, finally winning one felt great to say the least! 2018 was definitely a great way for me to start off this year! I still feel pretty stoked about it because I’ve always wanted to win a major tournament in Tekken 7 as well as attain that beautifully made Heihachi trophy that only Kumite in Tennessee awards! The last K.i.T that I won was in 2010 and unfortunately, they didn’t have any medals or trophies to award back then. Majin, thanks for the interview! And congratulations on winning the first major of 2018 – Kumite in Tennessee! How’s it feel to start the year off that way?įirst and foremost, thank you for having enough interest in me to conduct this interview! Winning the Tekken 7 tournament at K.i.T. Get to know the recent KiT champ after the jump. It’s an honor to have Majin as our first interview of 2018. Quite often after a win you can catch Majin looking into a camera with a sneaky smirk and an eyebrow raised, as if to say “my opponent didn’t see any of that coming!” It’s all very genuine but don’t let his smoothness fool you, because when it comes to playing Tekken he hopes to crush your dreams. When you meet him you find that he is very humble, polite, well-spoken, and quite intelligent. And earlier this month Terrelle “Lil Majin” Jackson, whom many regard to be the world’s best King player, won Kumite in Tennessee 2018, the first Tekken 7 major of this year. Qudans, who many regard as the world’s best Devil Jin player, did it recently by winning the 2017 Tekken 7 World Finals. It seems like the veterans of old who are also character specialists are making huge comebacks, showing the world that they still have what it takes. When you begin to name players who have been around since then and are still playing and winning championships at a high level, that list becomes extremely short. The very first Tekken released nearly 25 years ago in 1994.
