Tekken 8 Eddy combo examples

d/f, 3> 3, 3> During Bananeira 3, 3, 3> During Negativa, 3, 3

Eddy might not be a beginner fighter in Tekken 8, but he has an auto combo like Victor Chevalier, which is easy to execute. All it takes is a successful launch with Mirage, followed by a series of left-kick inputs to deal a whopping 61 damage to an opponent.

d/f, 3> b, 3, 3> During Negativa, 2> During Heat, 4, 4, F> b, 2> While rising, 2, 4> qcf, 3> d/b, 4, 4

This is a powerful Heat combo for Eddy Gordo that initiates with the Mirage launcher. You should be able to get a decent juggle on an opponent as long as you don't drop the inputs. Speaking of which, be careful of the Forward hold input, as it is easy to overlook.

While rising, 2> u/f, 4> During Negativa, 2> b, 1> While rising, 1, 4> qcf, 3> d/b, 4, 4

A lot of Eddy combos in Tekken 8 converge after a successful while rising hit. It might be a little difficult to execute at first, but once you nail down the timing, you can pretty much dominate matches. The input above is a prime example of how strong he can be, as it inflicts solid damage all while juggling the opponent to the edge of the arena.
