Honestly I don’t understand why he thinks their cheating theirs literally no signs. Especially someone who’s played for so long doesn’t know it’s hard for some people to play on their weak side, sometimes when a Kazuya is too good I purposely try to put him on the other side.
if you cant backdash on your weak side you shouldn't be able to reach the tekken emperor bracket, that's how it was in previous tekkens that's why deji thought paul was a cheater.
Him not backdashing on the other side is actually a sign of him being real bc he’s only doing it on his preferred side, he probably hasn’t practiced it on the other side
Accusing people of cheating for having good back dashes is crazy work. Not having a strong back dash when your not on your side is perfectly normal idk how tf that would make you think someone’s cheating
14:00 dej he backdashes on one side because he practiced that only on one side so when you switch him to the other side he isn't as comfortable, no one is cheating

1: People who low-blocked you in these matches are doing it because you have shown them that you are very willing to do those moves and have given them enough reasons to block low. 2: The Kazuya could've been playing on a keyboard or a leverless, giving him access to SOCD inputs which could explain his kbd's. 3: While yes, cheaters do exist, they are usually known well enough to the point that people will make UA-cam videos about them to warn the community or at least bring it up in forums, discord groups, and so on. I really do not believe that there are THAT many cheaters that you would just run in to them one after another. 4: Just because people wash your ass online does not make them a cheater, if you have enough reasons to believe that they are, go to the replay and check the input history and really pay attention to when they did the input and for how long. If they duck your lows for example at frame one of your low attack and duck for just as long as your low attacks frames and do that every time, then yes, very likely a cheater. 5: You mentioned Leroy and Raven for being the only black characters being in the game and that if there was an additional one in the game it would be a "movement"? Okay do we just want to pretend Eddie Gordo does not exist or what's going on here? Sure it's not 50/50 spread But the game has a variety of ethnicities and backgrounds. I personally don't have an issue with this point but it is still very odd point to bring up. 6 I do not think the game not having the characters you like is a valid excuse to say the game is good or not, I was a Kunimitsu/Josie main in 7 and I still am bummed out about them not being in 8, but I like the franchise enough to find someone else to main and play until hopefully either they are back or a new character is returned/introduced that I can try and potentially enjoy playing. Also Heihachi is a Mishima, when has a Mishima truly died off? While yes I was caught off-guard about him being back because Harada said he was, and I quote "Completely dead". It was not that shocking that he pulled something out of his ass and brought himself back in to the game. And lastly 7: While you have the right to dislike a game and is absolutely fine to, I really don't think you understand the game well enough if you cannot even articulate the reason as to why you think the game is "Noob-friendly". I can think of a few reasons as to why and if you made those points I would've given you at least the point to give the opinion as to why the game is "Noob-friendly" or not. At the end of the day, it's just a video game and if you do not like it then that's that and that is completely fine. However I do not think it is wise to give it this much crap on a platform as big as yours to people who are not, for a lack of better words, well educated enough about the game and would blindly repeat those same "points" you did. Either this is a rage bait video, or respectfully, you are coming from a place of ignorance.
Well I get that some of the hate is justified as Tekken 8 is flawed in many ways, but I don’t think it really deserves this much hate. Judging by my profile pic it should be obvious that I enjoy the game very much and all I can say is that I think it’s unfortunate that you don’t as I always enjoyed watching you play Tekken.
I mean getting to tekken emperor rank is still impressive, and this game doesn’t encourage you to side step and play defensive just unga bunga thats tekken 8

Look Dej…some people have just practiced enough of the game to know what to do. Backdashing well and blocking lows, especially when the lows are a go to pattern, isn't cheating, it's just knowing your opponent.
I don't even know what day is going to talk about but I already love the fact that he's making this video because if someone that never considered themselves to be good at fighting games in general I've always wanted someone that I could feel that is justifiably a source to represent wide area of the fighting game community because I never cared about those games either I cared about watching funny videos but I also really care about video games so it warms my heart to see other people care about them too
I don't know how Deji came to the conclusion that having a weak back-dash on ur non-preferred side means that Paul was cheating. Is he suggesting that Paul's ''cheats'' only works on one side? I'm surprised he didn't realise sooner what he was saying was actually so backwards.
@tombwady3330 if we're talking about the ethnic representation in the game I'm pointing out that tekken has a fair amount. And that dejis point is far fetched.

They might be dead but then again here comes heiachi.
@@baguettebeefs2846 what are you talking about? Tekken is filled with extremely uncool character but it has its "cool" characters too. Lidia is just one of the more realistic characters in Tekken.
not really itbwould make sense maybe round 2 or late r1 if he keeps hitting low but blocking low off the start of a new game new opponent is riskier than worth 💀
@antweeezzyyyantop6743 you never heard of guess for game? There's so many factors to consider as to why someone would anticipate that low. And then to call it cheating is wild. It's not like anything demonstrated in that set was an insane play. He guessed for game and guessed right. More than likely after that guess he has the confidence to rely on his foresight. Happens a lot especially in tekken 8 because a lot of people low spam.
IDK what it is but Hwaorang is sooo bad to play with in Tekken 8. I get destroyed by Bryans, Yoshis, Drags, Reinas, and others. He has so many disadvantages once you hit the orange rank. Not to mention the Lag Switchers when I hit a combo! OH, and WIFI Players Can FUCK OFF
From what I saw I played the Tekken 8 demo once and I did not like it. I mainly play Tekken 7. When I played 8 I could not play solid defense at all and that was the demo. When I play Tekken 7 I can use fake-out offense pokes to make the opponent think they have a free hit and launch them. When I watch streams of Tekken 8 it looks like you do not get a chance to use the entire command list nor have time to play proper defense. It seems like on 8 you can't play keep out at all. Tekken is all about defense and keep out. On 8 It gives new players a chance to earn stuff that would never work in the past. I still think Tekken 8 is a great game overall but not better than 7.
@@murtza_6640 so you and the other guy is criticising deji rank level. Even though it says tekkan emp. Am I doubting his skill?? It's funny how you and the other guy suddenly go silent because you know your rank is prob either red or purple or below like 70% of all tekken players.
Rage art armor starts up in 8 frames, going for meatys all the time makes you predictable so therefore you get punished, it beats heat smashers also it is a decent idea to be like "fuck your mix I am taking my turn back", so do your math for frame data on how to beat rage art, just dash forward to bait them into rage arting then launch punish them, pay attention to the screen and know what your opponent is capable of doing.
@@olah547Perfect explanation, I used to say the same thing, just keep playing and you will figure it out by yourself. Play a few games and you'll counter it for sure
You know what's odd? As much as he's complaining (which is kinda annoying) about the skill base being hand held. The fact that most of the commenters here genuinely believe Lars is a god tier character, proves his point
As much as i understand the nostalgia, bruce is an atrocius pick, seriously, everything about him its just.. not it. Design: hes just a black guy doing muai thai, thats it. Whats worse is that we already have two of the same fuckin character archetype, leroy and raven are also just "black american doing asian martial art". Story: kazuyas body guard (for some reason), died 17 years ago. The only remotly interesting thing was that he was one of the few people he trusted, but even then, that was never explored or of any relevance. Gameplay: he isnt all that special, he played like a neutal controll character/combo monster, similar to something like paul or bryan, soooo just play paul or bryan, bonus reference for representation: we already have 2 "black american guy does martial arts" and no thailand representation when they have a culture thats so intertwined to their martial art, it'd be like having feng or lei not be chinese. Now compare that with fahkumram. Design: setting aside his ateocius model in tekken 7, not really a problem of design as much as graphics, his design is unique, tall, big but lanky monster of a warrior, tatooed head to toe in his culture while being scarred by fricking lighting, scars that GLOW on his most powerful strikes. Actually represeting his culture with traditional ritual outfits and clothes. Story: amids the chaos of the tournaments in t7, and preparing of t8, Thailand decides to have their own super weapon martial artist to realease in turnaments, so they hold his family hostage and make him fight against his will. Gameplay: objectively one of the most unique and creative fighting style in tekkens history, so unique that in T8 they took the corner stone of his playstyle, charge moves and charge guard breaks, and give similar moves to a good chunk of the cast, paul, bryan, feng, lidia just to name a few. I understand why some people would like bruce, but stop the cap, fahk is a 100% a better choice and thats facts
It's pretty normal to be better at back dashing on one side. It's very difficult to consistently do it on both sides from muscle memory. Still the cheating problem is very bad in T8.
Man, I stopped playing when Tekken 4 came out as that's when it no longer felt like Tekken to me. I still love and play Tekken 3 and Tekken Tag Tournament (1) which I think are perfect fighting games with their great game mechanics, characters and music, and I'll sometimes play Tekken 2 just for the vibes and music, but that's about it.
The game is much harder then Tekken 7 and the Legacy players are finding it much harder to adapt as they are used to previous titles, the fact is it is harder
If your complaint at this point about tekken 8 is that it’s too noob friendly you’re just not good. The games been figured out more since launch, and yeah sure the game is more accessible but the skill ceiling is higher than ever
True!!! Like who the **** cares about Lidia? Give us something to be excited about, players with exciting fighting style/coordination like BRUCE IRVIN, BAEK DOO SAN, is Hwoarang just gona keep taking all his movies for every patch/new tekken? ...... and where the **** is FAHKUMRAM? So let me get this straight, you create the most epic Muay Thai advanced fighter ever, then Tekken 8 comes and....... he is gone? Why did you put all that effort into FAHK and then decide to use random Blonde Polish girls instead?
Adding tekken tag 2 and tekken 6 to steam will literally do nothing to tekken 7's numbers, especially for an extended period of time lol. People will go back to play those for nostalgia reasons but people will probably flock more to 7 than either of those. Also bruce is not gonna move numbers man. I want him back too but Fakhunram is more relevant in the community rn.
How toxic this man is... You hate the game? Good, uninstall it, it would be better for everyone, damn... Accusing cheating people that they're clearly not, with your big viewer base? That's insane...
I think it's completely normal to backdash better on your preferred side
yeah like Deji spelled it out for himself but still insisted it was cheating, most people don't practice on their weak side.
Honestly I don’t understand why he thinks their cheating theirs literally no signs. Especially someone who’s played for so long doesn’t know it’s hard for some people to play on their weak side, sometimes when a Kazuya is too good I purposely try to put him on the other side.

I’m glad he’s not playing the game. Just another whiny, toxic player that complains for the sake of complaining.
Brings in the views it seems, just another content creating muppet
Some of his points are true though and a lot of pro players would agree. The game is getting better, but it's miserable to play at higher ranks.
+ racist
Tekken 8 is actually a downgrade from 7 the heat system allows randoms and noobs to win. The same people who couldn’t even get a win in T7
should do a tekken 7 revisit, as it's the same for me too, i don't like T8 either. i go back to T7 when ever I'm in the mood to play tekken tbh
That Paul wasnt cheating. He just cant backdash on the other side. Some players can do Electric only from one side for example
Yeah dumbest logic he has, why wouldn't a cheat be able to backdash on both sides? Makes more sense that a human has a preferred side
its good to have deji making vids he actually wants to do
Kuzaya literally did one move n is called a masher💀
I hate when people talk about cheats, I literally play console with a controller blue rank and people always talking bout “cheater” just get better 🤷🏽
Telling people to get better when you’re not even GoD is crazy work. Blue rank is slightly above average, especially in tekken 8
@@percnowitzki1724 blue rank is slightly above average based on what? you dont have to be GoD to tell people to get better thats retarded, average is like tenryu or a bit less even
@@percnowitzki1724Fujin is top 20 percent “slightly” is a massive exaggeration. If you are top 20 percent of your class in school you are considered intelligent. And he’s right, dude had an unoptimized KBD, too short on the backs he wasn’t really moving anywhere. If he was going to cheat i’m sure he’d have had a better kbd.
@@deadlygun9 I’m not saying the guy is a cheater. But the comment is bragging about being blue rank lol I know blue rank players that play tekken as secondary game. He’s telling someone to get better that is way higher rank than him 😂 he probably hit blue rank for the first time and bragging about it already.
Hes a higher rank tho...
I'm praying for Tekken to add an entirely new character.
nah dont worry if they add bruce they just gonna make him a corny uninspired modernized version like Eddy and give him those cursed gentrefied locks
*Eddy exists*
Harada: ✊🏿😎
3 black men can't exist without it being called a movement
1: People who low-blocked you in these matches are doing it because you have shown them that you are very willing to do those moves and have given them enough reasons to block low.
2: The Kazuya could've been playing on a keyboard or a leverless, giving him access to SOCD inputs which could explain his kbd's.
3: While yes, cheaters do exist, they are usually known well enough to the point that people will make UA-cam videos about them to warn the community or at least bring it up in forums, discord groups, and so on. I really do not believe that there are THAT many cheaters that you would just run in to them one after another.
4: Just because people wash your ass online does not make them a cheater, if you have enough reasons to believe that they are, go to the replay and check the input history and really pay attention to when they did the input and for how long. If they duck your lows for example at frame one of your low attack and duck for just as long as your low attacks frames and do that every time, then yes, very likely a cheater.
5: You mentioned Leroy and Raven for being the only black characters being in the game and that if there was an additional one in the game it would be a "movement"? Okay do we just want to pretend Eddie Gordo does not exist or what's going on here? Sure it's not 50/50 spread But the game has a variety of ethnicities and backgrounds.
I personally don't have an issue with this point but it is still very odd point to bring up.
6 I do not think the game not having the characters you like is a valid excuse to say the game is good or not, I was a Kunimitsu/Josie main in 7 and I still am bummed out about them not being in 8, but I like the franchise enough to find someone else to main and play until hopefully either they are back or a new character is returned/introduced that I can try and potentially enjoy playing.
Also Heihachi is a Mishima, when has a Mishima truly died off? While yes I was caught off-guard about him being back because Harada said he was, and I quote "Completely dead".
It was not that shocking that he pulled something out of his ass and brought himself back in to the game.
And lastly 7: While you have the right to dislike a game and is absolutely fine to, I really don't think you understand the game well enough if you cannot even articulate the reason as to why you think the game is "Noob-friendly". I can think of a few reasons as to why and if you made those points I would've given you at least the point to give the opinion as to why the game is "Noob-friendly" or not.
At the end of the day, it's just a video game and if you do not like it then that's that and that is completely fine. However I do not think it is wise to give it this much crap on a platform as big as yours to people who are not, for a lack of better words, well educated enough about the game and would blindly repeat those same "points" you did.
Either this is a rage bait video, or respectfully, you are coming from a place of ignorance.
Ayee deji clutches when it comes down to it 😂😂
Okay the bruce argument im with ya , Eddie is black tho , and heihachi reviving is the most tekken thing ever
Well I get that some of the hate is justified as Tekken 8 is flawed in many ways, but I don’t think it really deserves this much hate. Judging by my profile pic it should be obvious that I enjoy the game very much and all I can say is that I think it’s unfortunate that you don’t as I always enjoyed watching you play Tekken.
Deji isn’t even that good, no sidesteps no mixups. Every heat engager he’s straight into heat smash 💀
I mean getting to tekken emperor rank is still impressive, and this game doesn’t encourage you to side step and play defensive just unga bunga thats tekken 8
@@nightcat9587 I agree Tekken rn is about whose character has the most bullshit but it’s obvious he’s got that rank cause he one and done’s people a lot.
Last time he uploaded a Tekken vid he was in blue ranks, and now he’s up to Emp? Was he playing a game he’s stated repeatedly that he dislikes off stream? That’s kinda weird imo
It’s tekken 8 ffs 🤣🤣🤣
@@Lay_rue442 in Tekken 8 each character you play can have a different rank. his hwoarang was in blue ranks but if you check the video his highest ranked character was tekken king, im guessing that was his lars. He might have played a bit and got to tekken emperor.
I dont get some people shaming peoples level of skill in the game.... like, who are you?
Deji: he doesn't back dash on his "weaker" side. He must be cheating.
Yeah that checks out 😂😂
Look Dej…some people have just practiced enough of the game to know what to do. Backdashing well and blocking lows, especially when the lows are a go to pattern, isn't cheating, it's just knowing your opponent.
I don't even know what day is going to talk about but I already love the fact that he's making this video because if someone that never considered themselves to be good at fighting games in general I've always wanted someone that I could feel that is justifiably a source to represent wide area of the fighting game community because I never cared about those games either I cared about watching funny videos but I also really care about video games so it warms my heart to see other people care about them too
I don't know how Deji came to the conclusion that having a weak back-dash on ur non-preferred side means that Paul was cheating.
Is he suggesting that Paul's ''cheats'' only works on one side? I'm surprised he didn't realise sooner what he was saying was actually so backwards.
1:42 eddy is black man 🤣🤣
was about to write this. would still complsin and say there's only 3. zafina and shaheen going unmentioned too.
@@MrMusicalsftw Why would those 2 be mentioned? lol
@@tombwady3330 Because they aren't white, they're Arab
Every character needs to be black or it's racist!
@tombwady3330 if we're talking about the ethnic representation in the game I'm pointing out that tekken has a fair amount. And that dejis point is far fetched.
ngl, it was a good point that deji said that tekken was noob friendly, unlike street fighter where you rarely can win by pressing random buttons.
When rage and heat stop being the deciding factor for so many fights the game will feel skilled again
Yoshi having a flashing move that stuns you is the dumbest and most broken thing ever. Even if the flash whiffs,, yoshi can still sidestep with instance transmission
Huh? A whiffed flash is launch punishable, its not instant spin transmission
@@dafyyyyyy I try my absolute best to launch it but he just sidesteps so quick and ends up whiff punishing me
@@dafyyyyyy because I'm a Lars main. I cancel my silent entry and wait for Yoshi's spam flash, when he misses I try do DEN 1,2 but it gets completely sidestepped

Fully agree , after years of plying tekken, this game is trash . I was spamming crazy ten hit combos , won every match I played , they ruined the game

My boy got on a 2x win streak and was like, “today is the day…”
1:40 Ermm Eddy Gordo? Also I'm a Lidia main so I feel disrespected 😭 stop the Lidia hate ✊️
He's not hating she's just sh*t character, fighting game characters should be cool like armor King
Lidia is dope but I think the issue is adding her over more popular and in demand options according to the community. They made Eddie dlc which is dumb as he's been in tekken FOREVER, Lidia who is also not someone to be excited for compared to say Bruce, Baek, and so forth. They might be dead but then again here comes heiachi.
@@baguettebeefs2846 what are you talking about? Tekken is filled with extremely uncool character but it has its "cool" characters too. Lidia is just one of the more realistic characters in Tekken.
I’m mad they made people who should’ve been in base game dlc again
Im glad somebody shares my frustration 😭😭
"Why is he blocking low?!"
Translates to...
"Why is he playing the game" 😂
not really itbwould make sense maybe round 2 or late r1 if he keeps hitting low but blocking low off the start of a new game new opponent is riskier than worth 💀
@antweeezzyyyantop6743 you never heard of guess for game? There's so many factors to consider as to why someone would anticipate that low. And then to call it cheating is wild. It's not like anything demonstrated in that set was an insane play. He guessed for game and guessed right. More than likely after that guess he has the confidence to rely on his foresight. Happens a lot especially in tekken 8 because a lot of people low spam.
@@DOMBINONo because blocking low to a new opponent in the beginning of a game is just a stupid risk of you getting juggled straight away.
@animallogic926 again... guess for game. It's a guess. He guessed right.
The game is exhausting to play
IDK what it is but Hwaorang is sooo bad to play with in Tekken 8. I get destroyed by Bryans, Yoshis, Drags, Reinas, and others.
He has so many disadvantages once you hit the orange rank.
Not to mention the Lag Switchers when I hit a combo!
OH, and WIFI Players Can FUCK OFF
From what I saw I played the Tekken 8 demo once and I did not like it. I mainly play Tekken 7. When I played 8 I could not play solid defense at all and that was the demo. When I play Tekken 7 I can use fake-out offense pokes to make the opponent think they have a free hit and launch them. When I watch streams of Tekken 8 it looks like you do not get a chance to use the entire command list nor have time to play proper defense. It seems like on 8 you can't play keep out at all. Tekken is all about defense and keep out. On 8 It gives new players a chance to earn stuff that would never work in the past. I still think Tekken 8 is a great game overall but not better than 7.
This guy sucks😭. He’s using 50/50 man and doing one and dones😭😭

Deji: “I hate this game! It’s full of toxic cheaters!”
*plays lars, ki charges after every match, never runs it back*
Rage Arts ruined this game.
Rage art armor starts up in 8 frames, going for meatys all the time makes you predictable so therefore you get punished, it beats heat smashers also it is a decent idea to be like "fuck your mix I am taking my turn back", so do your math for frame data on how to beat rage art, just dash forward to bait them into rage arting then launch punish them, pay attention to the screen and know what your opponent is capable of doing.
@@olah547Perfect explanation, I used to say the same thing, just keep playing and you will figure it out by yourself. Play a few games and you'll counter it for sure
How much storage is tekken 8 on xbox series s
You know what's odd? As much as he's complaining (which is kinda annoying) about the skill base being hand held. The fact that most of the commenters here genuinely believe Lars is a god tier character, proves his point
The entire comment section is full of scrubs
Lars isn't god tier but he's probably the most auto pilot character in the game and will carry people with 0 movement.
Bloody Roar just needs to come back.
This comment made my day…. Thank you… Bloody Roar Primal Fury was literally my childhood…. 🥹
As much as i understand the nostalgia, bruce is an atrocius pick, seriously, everything about him its just.. not it. Design: hes just a black guy doing muai thai, thats it. Whats worse is that we already have two of the same fuckin character archetype, leroy and raven are also just "black american doing asian martial art". Story: kazuyas body guard (for some reason), died 17 years ago. The only remotly interesting thing was that he was one of the few people he trusted, but even then, that was never explored or of any relevance. Gameplay: he isnt all that special, he played like a neutal controll character/combo monster, similar to something like paul or bryan, soooo just play paul or bryan, bonus reference for representation: we already have 2 "black american guy does martial arts" and no thailand representation when they have a culture thats so intertwined to their martial art, it'd be like having feng or lei not be chinese. Now compare that with fahkumram. Design: setting aside his ateocius model in tekken 7, not really a problem of design as much as graphics, his design is unique, tall, big but lanky monster of a warrior, tatooed head to toe in his culture while being scarred by fricking lighting, scars that GLOW on his most powerful strikes. Actually represeting his culture with traditional ritual outfits and clothes. Story: amids the chaos of the tournaments in t7, and preparing of t8, Thailand decides to have their own super weapon martial artist to realease in turnaments, so they hold his family hostage and make him fight against his will. Gameplay: objectively one of the most unique and creative fighting style in tekkens history, so unique that in T8 they took the corner stone of his playstyle, charge moves and charge guard breaks, and give similar moves to a good chunk of the cast, paul, bryan, feng, lidia just to name a few. I understand why some people would like bruce, but stop the cap, fahk is a 100% a better choice and thats facts
He isn't cheating bruh 💀 He literally just can't play on both sides lmao
Tekken 7 will always be the better game
because u cant adapt to 8?
@@mr.gamingz7 is just more smoother and it’s not an easy mode Tekken like 8
It's pretty normal to be better at back dashing on one side. It's very difficult to consistently do it on both sides from muscle memory. Still the cheating problem is very bad in T8.
8:22 thats literally a regular korean backdash smh
Poor kazuya 😭
Man, I stopped playing when Tekken 4 came out as that's when it no longer felt like Tekken to me. I still love and play Tekken 3 and Tekken Tag Tournament (1) which I think are perfect fighting games with their great game mechanics, characters and music, and I'll sometimes play Tekken 2 just for the vibes and music, but that's about it.
I hate Tekken 8 because I be trying to play serious with people who can just win mashing buttons and quiting when they about to lose.
How are you losing to button mashers
Deji asks why is yoshi blocking lows when he does the most predictible and slow low lars has 😂

The game is much harder then Tekken 7 and the Legacy players are finding it much harder to adapt as they are used to previous titles, the fact is it is harder

Adding tekken tag 2 and tekken 6 to steam will literally do nothing to tekken 7's numbers, especially for an extended period of time lol. People will go back to play those for nostalgia reasons but people will probably flock more to 7 than either of those. Also bruce is not gonna move numbers man.

Don’t just follow what he’s saying if you have never tried it. Try it and then make your OWN opinion about the game.
Tekken's an amazing fighting game,don't let one man's opinion sway you from trying something
No don’t try it, the games a shit show honestly. It’s a guessing game 50/50 bs.
