General Tactics

Tien's kit makes him most suitable as a means to finish an opponent due to the excellent damage scaling his supers receive. In particular, "Farewell, Chaotzu" does an astounding amount of damage at the end of any of Tien's combos. Neo Tri-Beam is his Z-Change Level 3 Super and can easily polish off an enemy given enough meter.

His normals are relatively standard, with his 5H in particular having respectable range. The armor on his Medium Volleyball Fist means that he can punish in unexpected and sudden ways, while his Heavy Volleyball Fist is a command grab that many people forget about. His mixup game in the corner is heavily dependent on Chaotzu's paralysis, so it's generally recommended to not sacrifice the little guy until Tien's job is nearly finished.

Team positioning

Point

While not the role he is best-suited for, Tien's basic and special moves give him a respectable neutral game. His offense isn't as oppressive as most point characters' tend to be, therefore Tien relies more on counter play than many of the mainstream choices for the role.

Mid

Tien works alright here too, but his assist is so good he's usually better off being an anchor.

Anchor

With the ability to suddenly, if not violently, finish off an opponent with a switch-in super Tien is at his best in the Anchor slot. His level 3 supers, in particular, receive some of the craziest damage scaling in the game. Very little is more nerve-wracking than seeing a full health Tien and 4+ bars of meter when you're on your last fighter!

The goal should be to give Tien the health advantage going into the late game. With a healthy amount of meter, the ability to punish and bury your enemy can create pressure on its own.
