Reina is proof that people will still play a character no matter how difficult they are if the character’s aesthetics and presentation are this good And this is nothing but a good thing. Reina is EVERYWHERE on ranked at every level
Yep. Dumbing down your game and characters doesnt do anything but pissoff your existing fans. Need to focus on making your game cool instead of easy because even complete newbies will get invested.
Difficult? I don't see difficult character here... I see a character with power of Mishimas and evasiveness and mixup potential of Lei. It's not difficult. It's actually easy.
I agree 👍, I see a lot of player never using Mishima's style but only with the new things she has (beginner ofc) but still they're doing great, and I, as a Mishima player, learn from their setup. Very very interesting to see how everyone is getting along with her. What a time to be a Tekken player 💪.
Reina is an exemplary newcomer, they did a great job designing her. Been playing her and I feel likes she’s definitely going to be my main until Anna eventually comes 🤣
@@AxeMain an aggressive 50/50 character, she’s very unsafe if you guess right that’s why she’s known as a gamblers character. Not to say you can’t play her more slow and defensive, I’ve seen many Anna’s like that.
"Watch it again" is honestly good advice, haha. The second time you watch it you'll pick up things you missed the first time and you'll digest it easier after having sat with the information for a bit
Lol in literally watching this at work lol rn but in my case ive been using her these past 4 day im just tryna see anything i might be missing you know so ill probably remember lol
This is my first Tekken game and I'm learning Reina as my main - it's tough, but it's fun as hell. Thanks for this video, having these moves laid out, shown, and explained helps a ton!
@@fastandy9 shes the first mishina that i enjoy playing that doesnt feel like im controlling a sack of potatos. call it what you will, but reina is queen 👑
Having a guide this dense, yet only the length of a lunch break, really has me chomping at the bit for the eventual Azuscena and Victor overviews You guys are killing it 🔥🔥
I really struggled with “stance” characters in Tekken7 , but Reina seems so cool I want to put the effort in to lab and get used to stances and how to use them. When I first got into tekken 7 this was one of the first channels I found for guides and its still my go to. Thank you
great guide. however, something you- and few other videos i've seen- haven't mentioned, is something i discovered by accident. she might not be able to electric from her df3 wavedash shortcut, but she can electric just fine from any move that transitions into a wavedash with df. So heaven's wrath, unsoku, her (i think it's) u1+2 flip, and most importantly, wind step. Still requires a perfect df+2 of course the wind step (f, n) one is particularly good because it means you can do a slightly quicker input variation of the EWGF by just doing f n df+2, skipping the down input entirely. also, and i'm yet to test if this is practically useful, but i did notice her safe-ish Sin Smiter mid (b 2), and her Eisaimon low (db 2) have very similar startup animations, and could be a useful mixup on conditioned opponents
This is my first Tekken game I've put more than a couple hours into casually, and Reina is my first Mishima. I've been doing f n df2 for my electrics. I just figured that's how all mishimas worked lmao
@@infamousta8213 I'll leave that to more talented creators, my creative efforts are for music 😅 besides, my Reina isn't very good- I really only found this one because being new to mishimas, my inputs are really sloppy and i realised it lol
@@talbotsolenberger4434 yea. coming from sf6 mechanics, i thought it was a genuine shortcut until i did it by accident from one of the other stances and realised the link
@@talbotsolenberger4434na f n,df+2 was something only kazuya can do. Making his electric 13 frames rather than 14 frames unlike any other mishima and now we have reina
no gonna lie reina is the reason I am going to try and learn tekken 8, she looks so badass and her personality just rocks that badass nature so well. Learning PEWGF is gonna be a pain as well as using all her stances but I wanna show off the purple lightening to everyone! Thanks for the info video I learned a lot!
PEWGF isn't something you desperatly need to master Reina, like Kazuya in Tekken 7, Electrics are still worth mastering, just not the PEWGF, it is not that worth it imo.
@artsq1550 I assumed people would understand nuisance when saying this. But I guess not. If I wanna stomp trash players with flow charts, then sure she can seem like spammy cringe easy. If you wanna actually play the character to relatively high potential, then you need to juggle 4 stances with their cross contamination, mix in spacing, neutral moves to go into stances, and the the 2 separate electrics to execute. If you think she's anywhere near the easiest then you are smoking
@TheBigEmstos but no it's not. It is literally succeed or die type low. The first and both seconds hits are launch punishable. For hitting the second hit on counter hit you launch. But for hitting the high you get to go into stance. While the stance is good, you need way more effort and danger to apply damage on that low. It's arguably a necessity to put some fear to duck. But she doesn't have a good low. Every low she has is more risk than the reward.
I remember when Tekken 8 got announced, I made a comment on how I was looking forward to your content on it you’re so inspired. It’s nice to finally reach that moment, thanks for the great videos!
I've been practicing Reina since Tekken 8 was released - first Tekken game, too! - and things are starting to click but this guide is going to help me so much. Especially with the visual demonstrations of tying her stances into her combos and explaining their weaknesses/risks. I'm really excited to practice her more tonight. :)
Great video. You helped me get into the series with the Bryan Essentials video for 7, and further enhanced my knowledge of my new secondary. Thanks. Also have yet to see another Reina electric online, yet
2:00 I'd like to point out the damage difference from the - Hardest Input - EWGF: 23 Medium Input - WGF: 20 Novice/Button* Input (df3) - WGF: 15 And Lastly - Fuck I forgot to let go for *Neutral* while trying to EWGF Input (df4) - Launcher: 13 Like someone pointed out, her stances or short strings that can be cancelled with a wavedash can be utilized for EWGF with max damage -- I just want to make it known that while there is an easy way into the wavedash stance, her damage can be drastically increased or decreased based on input method (which I think is dope). This opens up the character's accessibility, while still holding a very high skill ceiling. I fucking love this character if you can't tell. Nothing biased about this.
Thank you so much for this guide. Ive already had a bit of experience playing with Reina as she is my main but some of the things you mentioned in this video, i didnt even know existed! Youve definitely earned my sub. Thanks again!
You are absolutely my favorite person to break down chars. You do a great job of highlighting pressure, pokes, punishment etc. Really hope u get to the whole cast
I was bummed about losing Heihachi and I was coming into Tekken 8 hoping she would play exactly the same, but the more I learn about her new tools the more I excited I am about Reina. She has just enough of Heihachi's gameplay and personality and she brings so much interesting stuff to the table.
She has a pretty scary wall game. Heihachi's f+4 into df+1,2. Unbreakable grab from Heaven's wrath deals massive damage if it hits the wall, and ws+3 (which has an easymode iws input by df+3) is a hit-confirmable wall splat, albeit ws3 on its own is -10 ob. db+4,2 is also a hit confirmable on counter hit (makes a distinctive noise on ch) and wall splats. Also her 3+4 has a weird interaction during a wall combo if only one of the two hits land (you achieve this by sidewalking prior to 3+4), allowing you to crouch cancel into heaven's stance and get the full 4,2,2,1+2 from it, although I feel like this is a bug and will be fixed eventually. Also I feel like there's potential in her sentai grab at certain wall angles; I've gotten few back launches if the opponent tried to stand up. Given her shitty lows, I think it's worth going into heat way earlier than you would on other characters to get that chip damage. The parry from heaven stance is scary, although susceptible to hop kicks and knees/elbows so not something you can spam willy-nilly.
Once you master all the moves that can transition into HW stance with frame advantage you can get a cheeky CH 1 into PEWGF if you have the execution that makes her even more intimidating
Really good video, you brought what she is capable of into a really concise package, and I'll probably be coming back to this video many times because of it.
Great video! Even though my execution isn't exactly there to optimize her mishima tools, I'm getting a lot out of this character as a stance enjoyer. Her pressure, mixup, and evasion all feel so good! Your guide has given me even further inspiration as to the application of moves I'd overlooked, so I'm quite grateful.
I love these guides so much, I share them with my friends whenever they come out. I’m so grateful for this guide because I’ve been getting my ass handed to me by Reina 😂
Impressive! What a video, this was amazing, this made my will to learn her to sky rocket! Loved the video format and presentation too, please keep them coming.
I think a big part of her appeal in terms of gameplay is that she is good in both low ranks and high ranks but for different reasons. At low ranks, she has many knowledge checks that are easy to execute and net you easy wins, but they stop working around the mid ranks. BUT! If you put enough work, her more difficult tools will give you great rewards in the higher ranks, which is something that many gimmick characters don't have. She is a character that you can grow with from a beginner to an expert.
Better start practicing your electrics man. Give it around 2 to 3 days of 10-15 minutes of just solid practice and you'll get it down to your muscle memory. Don't listen to the scrubs saying it's hard. I'd say an instant while running is harder and that's easy as balls.
Have fun while you practice, and don't get discouraged. If you want to main her, that is okay even if she's a bit tricky. Playing someone you like over someone easy is the best long-term strategy imo
2-3 days of 10-15 minutes is nowhere near enough time. That may be enough to get a few electrics out but consistent electrics won’t happen for weeks or months. I practiced about once or more times a week for about 30mins or more and I’d say I was confident with electrics after 2 months. Also very important to note that you should practice both sides and electrics out of different movement options like dash, backdash, wavedash, multiple wavedashes, etc.
I'd argue electrics isn't something a complete beginner to tekken should worry about, instead, get the basics down, learn when and how to sidestep pressure, how to kbd and wavedash, bnbs, learn your launchers, then go for electrics@@BiggestChungus21
You covered her so well. I instantly fell in love with her during the trailer and have been playing with her since release. I’m dedicated to mastering her.
Its criminal bandai don't pay for the production of these videos to launch with the game, they are so much better than the personality-less character trailers they put out where everyone does a canned combo into a heat smash into rage art and all characters look identical. Here you actually get to see some nuances, the flavour the character brings and its target audience.
Ive never seen such high quality detailed and well edited tekken videos like yours b4. U make me watch even when I don’t care about the character u revealing. I wish u make one about the new HWOARANG.
Salami i cant believe were finally here with tekken 8. Heres to a new game and new content. Love the channel man. Thanks for your yoshi guide years back, its what got me started with my main.
As much as I love using Jin, Reina is pretty fun to learn. Her stances are insane, if used correctly. Can't wait to see what pros could come up with her move list.
Also worth mentioning that just like Kazuya, Reina has a perfect electric with f, n, df + 2! And just like Kaz, she has a frame perfect counterhit launcher from HW 1, wherein it's exactly 13 frames.
also something to note!!!! 1+4 is a duck that also lets u crouch dash out of it, and like a proper electric one, so u have access to what is essentially a low profile electric!!
This guide is amazingly edited and very stylish but feels it's made more for people who already play Tekken and doesn't get into a lot of explaining on why/how things work. The electric dash was described as "doing it the ol' fashioned way" which for a beginner sends me to google and likely a different video. Stuff like that is all over. I get Salami wanted it to be digestible but it just makes another gate for new players I guess I gotta find a different beginners guide and come back here when I just have a better understand
Her stances are very reminiscent of akuma's demon flip, while resembling Heihachi's f2 spin cancel in appearance. She gets to make you guess for free in neutral with her 12f plus on block mid into sen
Been playing quite a few characters, but the other day I realised I’ve been spending so much more time on the new characters. They really hit it out the park in this one.
I’ve tried doing her tornado kick from her turning stance, shit’s hard and it’s like a main move. I’ve gained even more respect for all the technical stuff she gotta do
"This move transitions into sentai stance, more about that later" *procedes to never elaborate on any of her stances beyond like a single line each saying one thing it does*
Wasn't really interested in the character at first, but now she seems very cool with multiple stances flow. Excellent video as always, looking forward to our steve changes!
exceptional video!! congrats as always. as a newcomer to the franchise I am extremely fascinated by the complexity of this type of characters. are all tekken characters this complex somehow?
One thing to mention that is kinda par for the course by mishima's in this game but theres one unique way onyl reina can use it is the guaranteed electrics while heat is up, because the manual button input for wind god step normally not having any way to access electric variants suddenly gives them all for free.

Never in my life did I think empty jump pressure would be in Tekken, but lo and behold… Reina. She’s amazing.
i love how reina is aggressive in her attacks and forces your opponent to keep track of her stances.
Also worth mentioning that just like Kazuya, Reina has a perfect electric with f, n, df + 2! And just like Kaz, she has a frame perfect counterhit launcher from HW 1, wherein it's exactly 13 frames.
I was waiting this ty man
Definitely learning her as my main and having a lot of fun
JESUS. If I wasn't playing reina before, I'd be playing now after this video.
also something to note!!!! 1+4 is a duck that also lets u crouch dash out of it, and like a proper electric one, so u have access to what is essentially a low profile electric!!
Blasted with the best guides and his beautiful english. learning both the game and Improvisating my english ❤️
This guide is amazingly edited and very stylish but feels it's made more for people who already play Tekken and doesn't get into a lot of explaining on why/how things work.
The electric dash was described as "doing it the ol' fashioned way" which for a beginner sends me to google and likely a different video. Stuff like that is all over. I get Salami wanted it to be digestible but it just makes another gate for new players
I guess I gotta find a different beginners guide and come back here when I just have a better understand
For a newcomer, Reina is already widely popular when playing Tekken 8 online, even within the first week of release!
Such a good video!
Nice video guide, waiting for the other characters guide ❤
I see now, so at my noob ranks, i will do well to use mid power crushes to reject being conditioned and protect myself from reina setting up her lows.
Just now unlocked her,going to try her and jun out. Been loving alisa and victor way to much. Thanks for the video
Can you do kuma guide for the true son of heihachi
I'm sure they will do a guide for everybody, just give it a season or two
@@ThriceGr8 oh that sad but maybe somebody will do it early for the memes and kuma is really strong in the game
Her stances are very reminiscent of akuma's demon flip, while resembling Heihachi's f2 spin cancel in appearance. She gets to make you guess for free in neutral with her 12f plus on block mid into sen
Been playing quite a few characters, but the other day I realised I’ve been spending so much more time on the new characters. They really hit it out the park in this one.
Fr the new characters are masterpieces. So fun and so much to learn
Thank you very much for the video ! This has helped me so much
I’ve tried doing her tornado kick from her turning stance, shit’s hard and it’s like a main move. I’ve gained even more respect for all the technical stuff she gotta do
"This move transitions into sentai stance, more about that later"
*procedes to never elaborate on any of her stances beyond like a single line each saying one thing it does*
amazing character and amazing video Arya, nice one
Wasn't really interested in the character at first, but now she seems very cool with multiple stances flow. Excellent video as always, looking forward to our steve changes!
welp, looks like she's going to be my introduction to this series, independtly of how hard she might be. she's just too cool
Thank you! Been waiting for this
exceptional video!! congrats as always. as a newcomer to the franchise I am extremely fascinated by the complexity of this type of characters. are all tekken characters this complex somehow?
Kazuya, Reina and Steve's videos being close to one another
Damn I don't have to wait long for my mains it seems lmao
One thing to mention that is kinda par for the course by mishima's in this game but theres one unique way onyl reina can use it is the guaranteed electrics while heat is up, because the manual button input for wind god step normally not having any way to access electric variants suddenly gives them all for free.
Always been a fan of Yoshimitsu and old Jun, so Reina's mix of stances, parries and hit-and-run sounds like just my thing! Wish Lidia was back tho...
Reina feels like if Heihachi and Lidia had a baby that loved to freestyle. So much stuff to work with but that’s what makes her fun.
Thanks 🤍🤍
Great video, breaking the character down like this makes her feel a lot more approachable
For some reason, im getting serious Kazumi Mishima and Aoi Umenokoji from VF5 vibes. Can't wait to dive in. Thanks again for another great video.
Her attack flow is incredible. A worthy addition to the Mishima Fighting style legacy
nice video, hope to see a general overview of all the characters like before
The is perfect, I’m committing to Reina and devil and it’s been a great experience
