Top tier

In a fighting game, reprensents the strongest characters in the game. Top tiers are usually marked by higher priority moves, hard hitting attacks, strategy variety, speed, and (sometimes) ease. When a game first comes out, the top tiers are usually the easy-to-use cheap characters, and players tend to rely on cheap tactics such as "spamming" a high priority move. After some time, the game tactics begin to develop as people learn new strategies with other characters. Eventually the "cheap" top tiers are replaced, knocked down a level, or accompanied, by new characters. A good fighting game should be as tierless as possible, although this is hard to achieve.
Marvel VS Capcom 2 matches are dominated by top tiers due to the fact that they are so much better than the rest of the characters. In Capcom VS SNK 2, the top tiers aren't so much better than the lower tiers.

tiger style

a type of shaolin kung fu that is totally bad ass. It is based on the tiger in that it involves extremely powerful, explosive punches and kicks to totally tron the enemy. In tiger style kung fu there are no evasion or blocking techiniques, because those would make the fighting tedious. There are only explosive moves which will end the fight in the quickest easiest way.
In other words if you role tiger stlye than you have enought dominating tronning power to own everyone. Even if you are less of a fighter than your enemy, Tiger style is so badass that you will certainly make him your bitch.

eye of the tiger

(n.) A song by a 70's/80's band called "Survivor", made infamous by being the training song for the Rocky movies. One of the greatest/cheesiest songs ever, with an instantly recognisable guitar intro.


(n.) To have complete focus on becoming the best fighter/hunter.
Risin' up, back on the street
Did my time, took my chances
Went the distance now I'm back on my feet
Just a man and his will to survive
So many times it happens too fast
You trade your passion for glory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive

It's the eye of the tiger
i'm feeling so good
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all
With the eye of the tiger

Face to face, out in the heat
Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
They stack the odds still we take to the street
For the kill, with the skill to survive

It's the eye of the tiger
i'm feeling so good
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all
With the eye of the tiger

Risin' up, straight to the top
Had the guts, got the glory
Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man and his will to survive....


It's the eye of the tiger
It's the thrill of the fight
Rising up to the challenge of our rival
And the last known survivor
Stalks his prey in the night
And he's watching us all
With the eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger
The eye of the tiger!

Mustard Tiger

As used for Philadelphia Collins ( RIP ) on The Trailer Park Boys, also takes on the meaning of someone with a horribly protruding belly, and T-Shirts 2 sizes too small. T-Shirts are a must for the full package, a button down shirt would probably just pop. In addition the T-Shirt must also have some image emblazened on it, such as a logo for a local eatery, or most commonly, cartoon or video game characters.
