Hey thank you so much for making this. I could not for the life of me figure out how to actually land a giant swing and was in serious need of a guide like this. I also appreciate the clear and concise style your tutorials have. Keep it up!
I had left a previous comment saying that I was struggling with this aspect of playing king. This helps so much, especially highlighting the practice settings to use. Thanks a ton!
I started playing King in tekken 7, and never once did i realize how impactfull buffer throws are, thank you for bringing this to my attention, i easily broke through to the red ranks with your guides.
Thank you for making these guides, I have played fighting games for a good while but this is my first dive into Tekken with Tekken 8. I have improved immensely with the info you've given.
wow I can't believe that throw buffering was one of the missing keys in my moveset. I kept being unpatient with king i ranks with my throws. Now I know how to use them properly, I'm nearly out of low elo. Thanks!
I just started tekken 8 this week, and rekken is my fiest wver fighting game. King looks so cool but it has been so hard to get his grabs going in a real fight
Great video! I'd recommend against following up df2 with throws however. Because its only natural follow-up is 1 (which is a High, good players tend to duck after df2 in most cases. You're likely to end up whiff punished for it, unless you're facing a weaker opponent or if you've conditioned them well not to duck.
Very nice video beautiful voice man, may I ask if you will make some guides on high level play and tips? I already asked for defence on another video but it would be greatly appreciated
Thanks- I'm a bit bunged up with a cold at the mo though! RE high-level tips, I'm really not a 'high-level' player as I don't have enough free time to invest in Tekken properly outside of UA-cam- but PhidX is a pro player who is also a really good UA-cam content creator and he did a good analysis on Lil Majin vs Jessandy who are both King pro players which is worth a watch! ua-cam.com/video/KQJbYvFno00/v-deo.htmlsi=soXz4Z8CUEjHSF8z If I can, I'll look to make some 'Anti Character' guides, but just waiting to see what it's going to be like after the incoming balance patch!
love this thanks man! What do you think is King's gameplan? I rely pretty heavily on conditioning them to duck, but not sure if there's an arguably better way to play him
Do you need to input first directional within the 9 frame buffer window or u can do it earlier and the only requirment for throw to come out is to finish command after recovery?
Hey so i am still struggling to get this even with recovery frames in. According to people i am inputing to quickly but i dont get how that can be an issue can you give any more tips i really would like to get this
@@beigemaster never got to try it in a match but I didn’t know it was launch punishable, got launched trying plenty of other stuff tho cos I’m still a masher
Hey, your videos have been super useful. Any chance you could do controller set ups? I would love to see what you suggest for king in terms of 1+4 or 2+3
I show my binds near the start of this video (not changed them for T8) ua-cam.com/video/Mr6IQSAP9wk/v-deo.html I set 1+4 to R3 but don’t bind 2+3 to anything
From what I see online and my personal experience (Ganryu Rank), King seems to have a very hard time against ultra aggressive characters such as Lili, Dragunov, Brian, Law. With bad backsteps and generally slow moves, but great armours, King's defence is very odd, and no channel as covered a defence guide specific to King. Any suggestion? Maybe an idea for a new video?
Someone suggested specific anti character guides with King in mind- this is something I'm going to look into doing as I think the new replay feature could be really handy here to try out various solutions! Without sounding too arrogant, I want to try and spend the time ranking up to where I feel I NEED to work on my own matchup knowledge to progress and that's when I'll probably start making them as a series.

Glad to have helped, have fun in the ‘Red Hell’! 🤣
Holy Jesus. The Display Settings made it so much easier to practice. Thanks man
Glad it helped!
Had an epiphany when I saw that... I think I said Oh sh*t out loud at work.😅
Best throw buffering video on the entire Internet. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for making these guides, I have played fighting games for a good while but this is my first dive into Tekken with Tekken 8. I have improved immensely with the info you've given.
Really pleased to hear it!
thank you! the simple display is a really good tip, I was really struggling with getting a grip on when to start buffering
Great content! Just discovered your channel and it's one of the best tekken content out there.

Lets help this man grow the quality deserves it!
You’re too kind
New to tekken haven’t played since 4 King main and this is helpful
Glad it helped you- shame we'll probably have to pay $3.99 for the T4 outfit :(
This is a must have for any aspiring King player. Great job brother! :)
There’s so many more of us since Tekken 8 dropped- you love to see it!

So clear and crisp. SO CLEAR AND CRISP. You are presumably a transparent crisp XD

Yeah good point, in a previous video I mentioned doing DF2 into DF2 to condition them first!
Great stuff as always man. Will practice this. Hope you’re feeling better!
Not really- but we carry on anyway!
@@beigemaster wishing you a speedy recovery
Another great video mate, all very helpful, thankyou
Really helpful video
Should I set the opponent to mash to make sure I’m doing it right? Or does that only work off of jab?

Show us how to IWR poweslam after the jab in the end of a combo! I cant figure out the timing!
Funny you mention that, I intend to do a bit of a tutorial with a hand-cam in the near future for that and other King moves.
Hey so i am still struggling to get this even with recovery frames in. According to people i am inputing to quickly but i dont get how that can be an issue can you give any more tips i really would like to get this
Thanks a lot, I appreciate the practical and thoughtful practice method, also did you know f 2 d 1 2 into b 3 isw is a 79 damage combo with king
Yikes! Have to admit I hardly use F2 D12 because I normally play King pretty safe and that's one of his very few launch punishable moves!

Do you only throw buffer the f hcf grab or can you do it with any throw?
Can do it with almost all his throws
Obligatory "I hate King" comment from those of us getting thrown 😂
