There's a factual error in the OP, you said Smash isn't a fighting game.

I know you think you learned to troll with the experts, but they weren't very good at it. You can do better, "it is", I believe in you. One day you will cause a shitstorm on the fighting games thread, but that day won't be today.

I heard joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Life seems harsh, and cruel. Says he feels all alone in threatening world. Doctor says: "Treatment is simple. Play fighting games. They're fun. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. "But doctor..." he says "I play tekken."

(2016): Brosnan wakes up from a 20 year coma after slipping and hitting his head on a Tekken 3 cabinet. No one plays Tekken anymore and Smash Bros is one of the biggest competitive fighting games in America, but the SA thread is afraid the shock from those news might kill the only person that could be bothered making general fighting game threads. Hijinks ensue.

There are some good aspects to KI in terms of like, the feature set and stuff that the game comes with, but you are right that the game is about trading combos. The reason I didn't really suggest it as an intro game (even though I've heard the tutorial is great) is that KI's version of the neutral game is basically for one of you to be in a combo, and once you're in that mode, it's a weighted rock-paper-scissors game to see if the guy doing the combo actually gets to hurt you or not. If the current gen options that have actual player bases (SF5, Xrd, maybe KI/MKX) don't really interest you, consider picking one of the more popular Fightcade titles and just see if you can get some goons to teach it to you. Some of the Goonsgarden crew are total sharks and will just tear you up, but others will actually walk you through stuff if you pick a game that they like. I guess if I had to pick some examples of that:
Just make sure you spend some actual time learning whatever game you pick, rather than playing hopscotch. I think forums user Faffel got into fighting games with KOFXIII, put some real time into it, and then started branching out to other stuff. But you kinda need to at least understand fundamentals of at least one thing before you start playing lots of things.

How does the Tekken balance process works? I've read they run through arcade revisions before releasing a console version to keep their games tight, but is there a pattern or method to it? do they focus on just a handful of characters at a time? Or does a Tekken arcade patch bring sweeping changes for everyone?

This isn't right. KI's neutral is in fact a regular neutral game. KI has footsies. KI has zoning. KI has mixups. KI has all of those things in the sense that a normal fighting game has all of things. KI's difference is that the defender is still fully engaged in playing the game while getting combo'd.

Vampire Savior is excellent, and I wish there were a modern game that were anything like it. Every character has unique movement mechanics. It's extremely momentum- and rushdown-focused, but there are still characters that have a "defensive" style in that context. It's got air-blocking, pushblock, ground tech, and all these other signifiers of an anime game, but combos are generally short. It's also beautifully animated, has a ton of personality, and a very welcoming community. (All eight of us.)

He said "weighted rock paper scissors" and I think that's fair. Keep in mind though that it's weighted in favor of the person doing the combo because manuals and light auto doubles have to be guessed to be broken. Additionally, if you're too predictable on breaking heavies people will just throw them out on purpose and counterbreak. That being said the perception that KI is all about combos is simply wrong. An equivalent statement would be that SFIV is all about doing full screen ultras because you saw that a lot online. While all characters have the potential to do large combos, it doesn't automatically mean that's a good option. If you're just trading combos, chances are your fundamentals are weak.

The idea that the combo game constitutes KI's neutral is ridiculous, though.

Getting a Wireless Fighting Stick 3 for about 40 bucks out of curiosity and since I want something to gently caress around with and play arcade with games when I'm in bed. Any qualms I should keep in mind in terms of modding difficulty and dongle problems?

People sperg out of milliseconds of latency, but a wireless controller is probably going to add visually noticable amounts of input latency. I mean, if you just don't care, that sounds fine.
