Anakin

Hoa "Anakin" Luu is a professional Tekken 7 player of American-Vietnamese descent from Atlanta, Georgia born on June 29, 1991.

As one of the top two players in his region with Jack-7 as his main character, Anakin achieved 1st place in the Tekken World Tour 2019 Americas Standings and 2nd place in the Tekken World Tour 2019 Global Standings. He is currently signed with Radiance and Redbull esports.

Anakin started playing Tekken 3 on PS1 constantly with family members as competition before discovering Tekken Tag Tournament 1 at the arcades, which ignited his passion for competitive Tekken with a strong urge to improve to beat the better and older players at the arcade. At some point, Anakin also found a local scene in Atlanta and constantly went to a Tekken house to play with other good players and improve his skills.

Some of Anakin's best performances include winning DreamHack Atlanta 2017/2019, Texas Showdown 2018/2019, 3rd place at EVO 2019, and countless top 8 placements in other tournaments.
