Tekken 7 - Claudio Serafino Movelist Rundown

Update: I've replaced the video with a revised version from the same channel. It features corrections and staple combos for Claudio.

Claudio Serafino is one of the new characters that is introduced in Tekken 7 and while there's been a lot of match videos of him for awhile now, I don't believe most players outside Asia are quite familiar with how he plays. Fortunately, Tekken 7 related video content is coming out as the Game Plaza Gao arcade in Japan did a great job giving a run down of Claudio's Movelist on their YouTube channel. Of course it's all in Japanese but I went ahead and translated the notes regarding all the moves below the video here. I've added all the translation below the video in the order of how they appear in the video so it shouldn't be too difficult to find each move's note. This should help bring everyone up to speed on Claudio as a character in Tekken 7. Enjoy.
