Though the Tekken Scene is not as big as other esports with huge amounts of prize money like Fortnite where a kid wins 3 Million$ from a Tournament. But still winning in a competitive game like Tekken 7 on an international stage is a huge win for Arslan as well as Pakistan.

Magnificent! Looks like he will be the lone non-east Asian sounding name on the Tekken leaderboards for quite a while.
