After spending time in different regions, I think one reason Pakistani players are strong is how we practice. I've noticed that especially in Tekken, a lot of players in Japan and Korea focus more on ranked matches, while in Pakistan we play a lot of long FT sets. Even if someone is much better than us, we keep playing to understand the matchup. We practice the same matchup over and over, even if we're losing most of the games. Of course, players in other regions do this too, but I feel like this is very common in Pakistan and might be one of the reasons we're good at fighting games.
