Brawlpro is such a chad, barely speaks, mains a chad, clutched up with no warm-up cuz his students needed him and no final words from him. Just fades back into the abyss like a mythical character. Salute to the King playing King Brawlpro!
It was so funny watching the Tekken community reaction to Coney. The scrubs in the comments all hating a King Player, everyone that fought him in tournament hating King even more, meanwhile all the pros reviewing him are like "Damn he's solved the Tekken ladder."
@@Giotron It's so funny that how anti newer player King specifically is. His throws are balanced at higher level through a knowledge/execution test that new players will never perform, you cannot just start mashing buttons on King because he has 2 (at least) very powerful power crushes, and the only counterplay new players will have against grab is duck (they cannot break throws, and you also need to know TO duck), ducking also being a risky high committment option that could get you launched. A new player also probably won't have the wherewithal to punish the King player hard from a successful duck under a grab.
@@harpot678 I think its also kuz tekken is really not very new player friendly. Even running through tutorials doesn't teach you the nuanced mechanics and to make it through long enough to learn those mechanics and how to appropriately fight back, you have to actually be masochistic.
@@aryanburnwal2371 Zangief will always be good. Just because people can't figure him out right now doesn't mean anything. Tiers are meaningless, good players change tier lists.
In a lot of his smash-related vods, Coney often mentions he’s too old to care about playing “honorably” anymore Love seeing him keep the ideology in tekken
@@unda4549 thank you! As far as the comparison, they’re very movement heavy, poke heavy games, where most moves are minus if blocked. I kinda compare air movement in smash to Tekken’s horizontal movement since it’s a 3D game. Of course it’s not a perfect 1:1, but I do think there’s a lot of parallels. Even the ground game in Tekken (when your opponent is knocked down) feels a lot like the ledge/recovery game in smash, since Tekken lets you stay on the ground, doesn’t give you invincibility while you’re knocked down (excluding ukemi which is a tech roll option, though it works a little differently from smash) and the attacker is heavily at advantage not just from the threat of a mixup if they do stand up, but with the threat of preventing your opponent from getting up in the first place, just like trying to get back on stage in Smash.
Mr. 5 Moves of Doom, "4" days purple rank King. The supercut is here. Sajam Slam was a great tournament, lots of great moments. Brawlpro being such a good coach and everyone else on the team was hyped up. Wish he liked the game more but it is what it is. Congrats on the Evo trip. (Poor super lol)
@@Jelliott_ssb There was no OWCS in 2023, unless you mean OWWC, in that he benched Coluge (World Class Sigma) and played SIgma instead of him. He was the main reason they had a fighting chance. Most people agree he is top 5 main tanks to every play overwatch.
LazyMattman was honestly the fucking GOAT, went undefeated the whole tournament. This whole event was so incredible to watch, like got DAMN was so much fun.
I don't watch live content often, but I set time aside and everything to watch this event, standing at my desk cheering and jumping like a fucking sports fan LMFAO. Fully convinced me along with Slime to learn the game, as well as maining King, despite being a grappler, and the community being Scrubs + Bitches + Bitchless + No Money about him. Respect for the multiple times you said the game absolutely isn't your thing, but I fucking loved this content, absolutely my favourite arc to this date. just 10/10 the whole way through, to the point where I was digging through twitch to find the tekken vods after the event to find more stuff, since I had to miss those streams, as well as just not being a live content guy too much in general. Cheers! excited to finish the video lmfao. Might ramble more after.
Also I can't really lie. Like you touched on, those laggy games were a real piss off. Leaving a separate comment cause I don't wanna be a complete hater, but my god that KILLED the momentum of that event. It is "technically" a casual event, but the attitude, presentation, and everything else was professional. Including the great prizes, including a fucking Evo trip of all things. I know everyone also agreed and knew beforehand, but even with that, it didn't look like anyone was happy about that lol. "Oh but they both deal with the ping" works a lot less when you can practice consistently, for weeks with that, versus having it dropped day of, unexpected. And then of course, daring not to smile and wave through it, just salty fan angry about X Y or Z losing. Totally not annoyed at the momentum change so obvious that even the streamers can't hide it lmfao. That condescension just locked me into Coney and my other interests streams and ignoring the rest of the Sajam content ngl. Only reason I wanted to rant here was because I got more hate/borderline harassment leaving a comment trying to word that politely on the vid summary lmfao.
@@blujay1294 Yeah I feel like the ping thing was a series of several unfortunate misunderstandings that couldn't really be walked back on. I didn't understand what the big deal was while watching the event but I can see how it might have slowed the momentum of it a bit. Luckily people were trying to salvage the vibes and hopefully if a similar event in the future gets planned it will truly be region-locked
I mean, if you can play Reina better than Super, then sure, you got something on him. Only problem I saw was bro chose a high floor, high ceiling character to play, and he paid for it by getting walloped.
Update: I finally bought the game about a week ago. I just hit mighty ruler as King. This is my first experience with any 3d fighting game, so I'm pretty happy with that. I'll add a reply to this when i hit Fujin (hopefully in the next few days)
After that tournament, I bought an arcade stick and Tekken the next day, I was that moved. Following your team and everyone's progression paths, it didn't feel anywhere near as short as it was, and BP carrying what you all forged together in that week over the finish line was a story that could only be told through fighting games. What a great event, what a great team, what a great game, and what a great video. Seriously, these types of videos are my favorite, and I understand why they're rarer, but I'd love for more in the future. Anyway, I'm gonna go back to labbing combos myself now, thanks for inspiring me.
Criminal that this video isn't doing so well. This is definitely the best piece of content you've produced since the Oook/Mikehaze match, and your storytelling skills are really nice. Hope to see more of this type of content in the future. Thanks for making this, Coney.
I'm glad that you mentioned that you're gonna play it casually. I feel like people don't understand that you don't have to aim for the moon in every single competitive game, sometimes it's fun to just boot up and play a few online and call it a day. At the end of the day it's a video game and meant to be enjoyed at any skill level
Coney genuinely has embodied the phrase "That's some good-ass Tekken." and I am incredibly interested in trying out 8 as someone who didn't play anything beyond 5
This video feels different from the other Coney content, it feels… real, like someone telling you a story at a campfire with a gleam in their eye. Something they’ll hold on to, forever. A legend of 5 moves of doom and the mythical 70%, capped off by the mentor taking off his cloak and saving the day. 10/10, would watch again just for the mullet
I like people critiquing your gameplay making excuses as to how you got such a good rank so quickly and so few people are willing to admit that Coney might just be good at learning fighting games lmao.
The truth that people dont want to accept is that in a game without actual straight up broken exploits like Gambit glitch and shit like that, winning the set pretty much inarguably shows that you are legitimately just better at the game than your opponent. As the wise man Sajam himself once said, at some point you have to accept that you gotta play the game as it is, not how you wish it would or think it should be.
@@lmao2302 Red ranks have some solid players, making it to purple proves that there was some solid Tekken skill going on. Sure it was with a character like King who's very cheesy but every character in Tekken is capable of some cheese.
I stopped playing Smash and moved to Tekken 7 when 8 got announced, King was my main in 7 but now I’m a real Mishima main Tekken head who believes in honesty (doing hellsweep one more time). Seeing your journey in playing King was such a treat. It breaks my heart that you chose not to keep playing after the event, but like a good healthy summer fling, it was beautiful while it lasted. I’d love to see you return to it some time, and it leaves me with warm memories that you had a blast with your team
Am so impressed by Coney picking up the game so quickly. Regardless of character choice that kind of stuff doesn’t happen by accident! Gives me the motivation to buy Tekken 8 soon for myself. I always kinda kept the game at arm’s length for the most part. It always seemed way more difficult than the 2D fighters and platform fighters I usually play. I also rarely really had good experiences when it comes to the communities of most of the other fighting games I played. But I’m really starting to get lured into giving T8 a try!
Dude what a fucking video this was genuinely amazing I cried. I've played esports all my life and played professionally for a few years from 2016-2018. And the heart and effort that I felt from that team made me remember some good times. God I can't explain how fun that was to watch. Thanks Coney. Couldn't agree more with the ending message tho it's exactly how I feel about acutally PLAYING in esports now adays word for word.
This showed me that approach matters more than most things people focus on. To get to purple rank in only 4 days of playing the game is insane. You would have never got there if you didn't prioritize certain things and put yourself in a good environment to learn the game. Memorizing the command throws and hitting them in matches in only 4 days was especially impressive.
He truly was....my fucking coach, what a ride yeah no shit winning in early ranks is just knowledge checks, most early game fighting games are. Check this mixup that no beginner knows how to handle, check this rushdown that every newbie can't handle. People act like the trenches of a fighting game are something so clean and high level, no I do the bare minimum over and over until somebody stops me and if nobody does all the way to purple rank then that's their weakness. Super get the "love tekken, don't like tekken" thing, the wall truly is enormous in learning how to play Tekken against people who know what they're doing. Glad you still enjoy it so much casually and will keep playing it for the future, there's a King in all of us just waiting to power crush his problems away.
Unironically one of your best vids man. Your storytelling ability is incredibly good and we dont get to see it nearly enough in edited content like this often. Good stuff
I wish Coney could make more super super high quality videos like this because they’re so much fun to watch but the amount of time it takes not only to record but also edit and write the scripts takes so long it’s always a treat to see when he does them. Great video Coney would love to see another one similar to this one eventually
Awesome video! I was rooting for Team MYK, but you and everyone else was hella entertaining in this tournament, this was one of the best fgc experiences as an audience member, happy to see it was for all of you too!
This may be the best video you have ever made coney. I have never played tekken or even watched the competitive scene but your video has gotten me into tekken as a whole. Thank you.
This is the most energy I’ve ever seen from coney ever apart from maybe the tie thing with TKBreezy lmao I love seeing it - YOUD BETTER GET THAT COACH A WORLDS GREATEST DAD MUG
One of my favorite videos you've made. This stream series got me into watching tekken(I'm in college don't got time to play) but this was such a good video recounting this and I hope this does what the event did for me and get people to watch tekken.
This, might actually be my new favorite CONEY video. Up till now it was the “Bad Things Happening to Good People” tournament video but, yeah this might take the cake. CONEY’s phenomenal storytelling capability paired with the beautiful editing and enthralling tournament details makes this, PERFECT
I initially scrolled past this video because of it being Tekken (I've never played it) but I gave it a chance for it being a Coney video. I have to say, I was as hyped as them when their coach brought them back and qualified for EVO. Great video, Coney, as always. ❤
Fantastic storytelling and editing. This one deserves to be way more popular. Major props to Sajam for putting together an amazing event. Can't wait to see what content comes from the Evo trip! 👑
Man as a person having played for a pretty long time now, hearing you glaze over Brawlpro just warmed my heart. Its such a sick scenario aswell, Coach vs Coach to break the tie, final final round, two amazing players with a long history, thats sick. Glad to see new people share our passion :D And what you say in the end is fair. We all hit that wall at some point and while overcoming it is an amazing feeling, i get that not everyone wants to commit like that. Better to notice early than get stuck on it.^^
This video single handedly convinced me I need to watch Tekken. Coney screaming in hype had me in tears, not from laughing, but from being overwhelmed with how much emotion and passion each moment had. I will never play Tekken, but god DAMN dude. What a good ass game.
Bro why the best Tekken video is coming from a non Tekken channel wtf. The video truly was a storytelling masterpiece i had the feels all along, great video. Wp bro
Ur storytime content is actually top tier, i know nothing about Tekken but i was hooked for the entire video. I hope Sajam (ot someone) does something like this for strive.
I literally jumped out of my chair when brawlpro did the command duck + grab and blue spark chaingrabbed after so many broken throws Was incredible watching it live, good video coney and team
Amazing video. I'm sad to see you say you can't dedicate yourself to T8 but I get it. Very happy to see you recommend it and also say it's very fun just too much for you right now.
I’m so sad he hates this game. I know everyone hates him in the tekken community but I hope he gets invited to another one of these because otherwise this might be the only coney tekken we will ever see
I mean he said multiple times on stream it's just not for him. The importance of frame data and the constant treadmill of learning isn't for everyone, especially if you have other professional or family things that take a lot of time.
@@AccelgorTheNinja He played king and did well. Playing King was bad enough, but like the Phidx clip said, Coney played Tekken to win, not as part of a long career, or as a fan assuming/mimicking pros. So he did simple shit, and did it well. Plus scrubs can't learn to break grabs.
Honestly got emotional over the storyline of this video. Watching you guys get to watch Brawlpro win is a moment that doesn't come by pretty often. Powered by true emotion.
What a riveting story! I was cheering you on from the minute I saw you were on the streamer roster, and watched y'all play live as I prepped for uni midterms. And thanks for your honesty about the game. I personally love it, but with the time available to me, I can only learn enough to play relatively casually. It's great to see how you came to your own conclusions about it. Thanks for sharing this adventure with us!
Instant all-time great Coney vid. Your commentary really sold the emotional investment, and I was instantly sucked in and cheering as a tekken heathen.
Great fucking video. You got a sub from me. Hope you do other story time videos, your storytelling and pacing was on point 👌🏽. Kept me locked in the whole time. I’m pretty sure you used to be a commentator on smash tournaments too right? You’re entertaining to listen to and fully agree, fighting games are so cool. Got into watching competitive fighting games through smash and to me there’s no other esport scene that is as exhilarating to watch. Especially when you start understanding the meta and nuances of each game. That anime arc lead up to Brawlpro fighting for the team and taking the W was an insane hype moment. You don’t need words, that story arc came through and spoke for itself 👍🏽
This was an amazing movie that really showcases how incredible Tekken is, and how much emotion and passion there is behind it and how easy it is to grasp onto that flame and never letting it go. Tekken is a phenomenal experience. LOVED LOVED this video, super happy that you enjoyed Tekken as much as I do. Much love 💜
Good stuff, Coney! These past 2 years have been amazing for fighting games, my love for them was rekindled by DBFZ, And now i mostly play Tekken and MK. You did great! And I cannot blame you for not wanting to stick with it competitively. I am just thrilled and so extremely happy to see more poeple get the joy of fighting games that I have. Hopefully one day I run into you and we can have some fun sets. Have fun at EVO! ❤
Amazing man! I find this game fun too. Rarely played old Tekkens but I play this for an hour every couple weeks through share play. Fun trying out which charcter works for you but need so much time to practice!
Coney being a caster knows what the people want, I swear his videos are so well done and I love the content delivery it keeps me interested its very well executed
The level of association between my streamer and Rosemi being this close is so funny to me. I was hoping and praying Coney would have to be matched up against a vtuber when I saw the list of players lol
Watching this live was a magical experience, I don't think there's any way that a video can expose the pure emotion of chat and Team Brawlpro. Hearing the screams of "THAT'S MY GOAT, THAT'S MY COACH, THAT'S MY KING, THAT'S MY FUCKING DAD" is incomparable to anything you get outside the FGC Incredible video regardless, and I'm so happy to see this Coney Tekken arc however small, recognised and memorialised forevermore
i may know nothing about tekken but the storytelling here is just phenomenal, and what a journey to watch unfold too, from coney reaching purple ranks at record pace to his team's performance in bracket truly inspiring, really makes me want to play King if i do ever pick up Tekken 8
Documentary voice Coney it's such a rare character.

Seeing your journey in playing King was such a treat. It breaks my heart that you chose not to keep playing after the event, but like a good healthy summer fling, it was beautiful while it lasted. I’d love to see you return to it some time, and it leaves me with warm memories that you had a blast with your team
Am so impressed by Coney picking up the game so quickly. Regardless of character choice that kind of stuff doesn’t happen by accident! Gives me the motivation to buy Tekken 8 soon for myself. I always kinda kept the game at arm’s length for the most part. It always seemed way more difficult than the 2D fighters and platform fighters I usually play. I also rarely really had good experiences when it comes to the communities of most of the other fighting games I played. But I’m really starting to get lured into giving T8 a try!
Dude what a fucking video this was genuinely amazing I cried. I've played esports all my life and played professionally for a few years from 2016-2018. And the heart and effort that I felt from that team made me remember some good times. God I can't explain how fun that was to watch. Thanks Coney. Couldn't agree more with the ending message tho it's exactly how I feel about acutally PLAYING in esports now adays word for word.
This video was so good I purposefully refused to look at the progress bar to not have any outcome spoiled.
This showed me that approach matters more than most things people focus on. To get to purple rank in only 4 days of playing the game is insane. You would have never got there if you didn't prioritize certain things and put yourself in a good environment to learn the game. Memorizing the command throws and hitting them in matches in only 4 days was especially impressive.
He truly was....my fucking coach, what a ride
yeah no shit winning in early ranks is just knowledge checks, most early game fighting games are. Check this mixup that no beginner knows how to handle, check this rushdown that every newbie can't handle. People act like the trenches of a fighting game are something so clean and high level, no I do the bare minimum over and over until somebody stops me and if nobody does all the way to purple rank then that's their weakness.
Super get the "love tekken, don't like tekken" thing, the wall truly is enormous in learning how to play Tekken against people who know what they're doing. Glad you still enjoy it so much casually and will keep playing it for the future, there's a King in all of us just waiting to power crush his problems away.
nice mullet coney, looks great
Unironically one of your best vids man. Your storytelling ability is incredibly good and we dont get to see it nearly enough in edited content like this often. Good stuff
BEST VIDEO POSTED BY CONEY EVER
GREAT EDITING
i was there in the streams and holy shit this felt amazing to live through again
Coney not showing the parry against ERobb is a travesty. He was so locked in
Watching coney improve at this game and perform in this tournament was absolutely inspirational. Tekken is so much fun to watch.
I wish Coney could make more super super high quality videos like this because they’re so much fun to watch but the amount of time it takes not only to record but also edit and write the scripts takes so long it’s always a treat to see when he does them. Great video Coney would love to see another one similar to this one eventually
Awesome video! I was rooting for Team MYK, but you and everyone else was hella entertaining in this tournament, this was one of the best fgc experiences as an audience member, happy to see it was for all of you too!
Mf didn’t learned Tekken he conquered it 🔥🔥🔥
THATS MY STREAMER 🗣🗣‼️
Mighty ruler is above average
My Streamer DOMINATED the IMPOSSIBLE FIGHTING GAME in 12 HOURS?????????
This may be the best video you have ever made coney. I have never played tekken or even watched the competitive scene but your video has gotten me into tekken as a whole. Thank you.
This is the most energy I’ve ever seen from coney ever apart from maybe the tie thing with TKBreezy lmao
I love seeing it - YOUD BETTER GET THAT COACH A WORLDS GREATEST DAD MUG
Loved watching Coneys run from beginning to end! Shit was so hype and I hope he does this again with other fighting games!
Damn he has a mullet again
Its NOT
@@CONEYZZClueless
@@CONEYZZ bro is NOT beating the mullet allegations
ICANT
Your respect is not a prize worth earning
One of my favorite videos you've made. This stream series got me into watching tekken(I'm in college don't got time to play) but this was such a good video recounting this and I hope this does what the event did for me and get people to watch tekken.
Coney was actually unbeatable in this event it was insane.
It hurt seeing him lose both sets to that lily player
Except: WANGED
@@YourTamedLion The Wang Factor hell yeah
This, might actually be my new favorite CONEY video. Up till now it was the “Bad Things Happening to Good People” tournament video but, yeah this might take the cake. CONEY’s phenomenal storytelling capability paired with the beautiful editing and enthralling tournament details makes this, PERFECT
your content is literally perfect, and any comment saying otherwise is probably a government psyop and should be ignored
this tournment was magical, and watching Coney's POV felt really special. amazing story telling Coney and brilliant editing Vince, Cinema.
ALGO BOOST!!
Brawlpro is your dad!! #1 Best Dad!!
I initially scrolled past this video because of it being Tekken (I've never played it) but I gave it a chance for it being a Coney video. I have to say, I was as hyped as them when their coach brought them back and qualified for EVO. Great video, Coney, as always. ❤
Fantastic storytelling and editing. This one deserves to be way more popular. Major props to Sajam for putting together an amazing event. Can't wait to see what content comes from the Evo trip! 👑
Man as a person having played for a pretty long time now, hearing you glaze over Brawlpro just warmed my heart.
Its such a sick scenario aswell, Coach vs Coach to break the tie, final final round, two amazing players with a long history, thats sick.
Glad to see new people share our passion :D And what you say in the end is fair. We all hit that wall at some point and while overcoming it
is an amazing feeling, i get that not everyone wants to commit like that. Better to notice early than get stuck on it.^^
Love when Coney like actually makes videos they’re always so so good
This video single handedly convinced me I need to watch Tekken. Coney screaming in hype had me in tears, not from laughing, but from being overwhelmed with how much emotion and passion each moment had.
I will never play Tekken, but god DAMN dude.
What a good ass game.
THAT JACK WALL JUMP HOLY SHIT IS CRACKED
This such a fantastic video, great pacing and very emotionally investing. Im gonna go buy Tekken
It always momentarily confuses me when I'm reminded that Coney is actually good at games
Bro why the best Tekken video is coming from a non Tekken channel wtf. The video truly was a storytelling masterpiece i had the feels all along, great video. Wp bro
27:00 In the eternal words of Tokido, "Fighting games is something so great."
You can tell from the emotion of your delivery how much it meant to you. One of my favorite videos you've done, because it told the whole journey.
Old people like you inspire me to play video games
Ur storytime content is actually top tier, i know nothing about Tekken but i was hooked for the entire video. I hope Sajam (ot someone) does something like this for strive.
I literally jumped out of my chair when brawlpro did the command duck + grab and blue spark chaingrabbed after so many broken throws
Was incredible watching it live, good video coney and team
Amazing video. I'm sad to see you say you can't dedicate yourself to T8 but I get it.
Very happy to see you recommend it and also say it's very fun just too much for you right now.
I’m so sad he hates this game. I know everyone hates him in the tekken community but I hope he gets invited to another one of these because otherwise this might be the only coney tekken we will ever see
I mean he said multiple times on stream it's just not for him. The importance of frame data and the constant treadmill of learning isn't for everyone, especially if you have other professional or family things that take a lot of time.
Wait the tekken community hates coney??? Lmao
@@AccelgorTheNinja He played king and did well. Playing King was bad enough, but like the Phidx clip said, Coney played Tekken to win, not as part of a long career, or as a fan assuming/mimicking pros. So he did simple shit, and did it well.
Plus scrubs can't learn to break grabs.
@@blujay1294Coney is just the Tekken equivalent of an invasive species. The current ecosystem was not prepared for what he was cooking
The people that hate him are the idiots who shout at a wall that king is a piss easy brain dead character
Honestly got emotional over the storyline of this video. Watching you guys get to watch Brawlpro win is a moment that doesn't come by pretty often. Powered by true emotion.
What a riveting story! I was cheering you on from the minute I saw you were on the streamer roster, and watched y'all play live as I prepped for uni midterms.
And thanks for your honesty about the game. I personally love it, but with the time available to me, I can only learn enough to play relatively casually. It's great to see how you came to your own conclusions about it.
Thanks for sharing this adventure with us!
Instant all-time great Coney vid. Your commentary really sold the emotional investment, and I was instantly sucked in and cheering as a tekken heathen.
This was hype honestly like for real this was badass
I love this form of content Coney! Please keep doing it.
If you need help learning the game, holla
Kingjae yoo
Glad to see you had a good time and shout out to you, yall, and sajam for bringing more exposure to this game.
I love this style of videos. Keep it up!! Love your content
Great fucking video. You got a sub from me. Hope you do other story time videos, your storytelling and pacing was on point 👌🏽. Kept me locked in the whole time.
I’m pretty sure you used to be a commentator on smash tournaments too right? You’re entertaining to listen to and fully agree, fighting games are so cool. Got into watching competitive fighting games through smash and to me there’s no other esport scene that is as exhilarating to watch. Especially when you start understanding the meta and nuances of each game. That anime arc lead up to Brawlpro fighting for the team and taking the W was an insane hype moment. You don’t need words, that story arc came through and spoke for itself 👍🏽
Team tournaments are just so much cooler and idk why
This was an amazing movie that really showcases how incredible Tekken is, and how much emotion and passion there is behind it and how easy it is to grasp onto that flame and never letting it go. Tekken is a phenomenal experience. LOVED LOVED this video, super happy that you enjoyed Tekken as much as I do. Much love 💜
Fundamentals translate, no matter what game. Some things are always going to be true.
Good stuff, Coney! These past 2 years have been amazing for fighting games, my love for them was rekindled by DBFZ, And now i mostly play Tekken and MK.
You did great! And I cannot blame you for not wanting to stick with it competitively. I am just thrilled and so extremely happy to see more poeple get the joy of fighting games that I have. Hopefully one day I run into you and we can have some fun sets.
Have fun at EVO! ❤
“Your respect is not a prize worth earning” - Coney
Amazing man!
I find this game fun too. Rarely played old Tekkens but I play this for an hour every couple weeks through share play.
Fun trying out which charcter works for you but need so much time to practice!
First,
“He doesn’t care about being honest he doesn’t care about what’s fair he came to win” is absolutely hilarious
Second,
man Tekken is hype
Coney being a caster knows what the people want, I swear his videos are so well done and I love the content delivery it keeps me interested its very well executed
"Have you played Tekken? Of course you have"
Coney, you have an audience of Smash fans
Really might be your best video, it honestly touched me
The level of association between my streamer and Rosemi being this close is so funny to me. I was hoping and praying Coney would have to be matched up against a vtuber when I saw the list of players lol
He almost was, if he hadn't been moved up a tier he would have been up against Victoria.
He did go up against porcelain maid who is a vtuber.
Watching this live was a magical experience, I don't think there's any way that a video can expose the pure emotion of chat and Team Brawlpro. Hearing the screams of "THAT'S MY GOAT, THAT'S MY COACH, THAT'S MY KING, THAT'S MY FUCKING DAD" is incomparable to anything you get outside the FGC
Incredible video regardless, and I'm so happy to see this Coney Tekken arc however small, recognised and memorialised forevermore
How’d that Kitsune do against Mikey T yesterday?
Shut up
Really loved watching you participate in this tourney and learning the game. Probably one of my favorite arcs of Coney's streams
The LazyMattMan x Coney crossover is INSANE
i may know nothing about tekken but the storytelling here is just phenomenal, and what a journey to watch unfold too, from coney reaching purple ranks at record pace to his team's performance in bracket
truly inspiring, really makes me want to play King if i do ever pick up Tekken 8
