« UYU adds Suiken as player manager »

UYU has welcomed another Tekken player to its ranks with the signing of Michael "Suiken" Khieu as the team's player manager.

Khieu is a veteran of the Southern California Tekken scene, with strong placings across multiple iterations of the series. A longtime player of Lei Wulong, Khieu was forced to switch characters in Tekken 7 when his favorite was omitted. Even so, he made top 8 at Evolution 2017 and has continued to play multiple characters as he searches for a proper replacement.

According to UYU, Khieu will "be working closely with our FGC pro players to provide an extra level of support, mentoring and guidance through the upcoming season and beyond."

"I'm truly grateful for this opportunity," Khieu responded on Twitter, "it's always been a dream of mine!"
