Just wanna say Thank you. Both of you. This kind of content is appreciated among all the videos by smaller creators who try to become relevant by riding hate trains and bashing every fighting game in existence.
Whenever a new fighting game drops it always gets a ton of love at the start then after a couple months or a year or so ppl start trashing it for almost no reason. Tis the fighting game community cycle.
@@HowlerofDeath I can tell you 2 reasons why Tekken is under fire right now. Same with region lock problems in early SF6. There's always a reason for scrutiny. The hate with no reasons are actually a small percentage of the hate, they're just trolls.
@ Yeah, i know, its just nice to have content creators like Max and Phidx who don’t support blatant hate, even if they criticize something, its constructive, but they mostly focus on making positive content, so i decided to thank them for it. But yeah, at this point no matter what i look up, SF, Tekken, MK, GG, Sparking Zero, etc, hate videos just pop up and it can be tiring after a while.
Max, I adore this format. Throughout, I couldn't help but smile. It's a lot of fun to watch and learn from, and the equally wholesome and funny comments helps you both learn from each other. The BGM was then ideal with the yodelling, hehe.
the coaching sessions have been a joy to watch so far but this one was truly something special. this is probably one of the most fun tekken videos i've ever seen!
@@gr4ndsoulfreak you should try phi's channel he has vids way more in depth with people and they actually Improve tons. I just wish max would test himself against someone phi actually is used to playing with
Max literally said something which is exactly how I feel, This is literally easier to play when playing against someone who understands the game. For me it's just more fun than just frame trapping people to death in ranked or just playing against people who just smash armor moves all game.
Gotta say, i’m most envious of the friendly attitude while they play each other. My friends either loathe fighting games or they’re too competitive and just want to talk shit the whole goddamn time and measure dicks. I just want the friendly but still competitive back and forth like these dudes have.
I had to stop playing takken because of health issues unfortunately but content like this makes my day. Love seeing so much love a respectful gameplay and genuine care for the game makes me want to pick it back up. Even though I know I can't. Its amazing seeing these types of videos being made :D
The thing about tekken king, not that I doubt you'll get it, is that they are wayyyyyy better than bushin whenever I fight them. I think the transition is super difficult for some reason
I saw somebody else talk about this but I think it has to do with the weird matchmaking centered around Prowess. If you are GoD, then your secondaries are Tekken King. Normally, this wouldn’t be an issue cuz their Prowess would be too high to match with. But because there are a lot fewer players Tekken King and above, it increases the acceptable Prowess range at Tekken King or higher to help find matches more quickly. That’s why there’s such a crazy wall between blue ranks and the rest above them. I know that the latest patch tried to give the users the option to adjust this but it’s seen mixed results
Not exactly, reaching Tekken king isn't that hard, BUT AFTER u reach it for the first time your prowess is over 210K which is the point where it is high enough to match with anybody, even GODs. On their alt chars. It's not uncommon to de-rank all the way down to Fujin, Raijin once u got to Tekken King the first time. (Happened to me as well) and you'll match with others who are at the same place, those who are super knowledge-Check heavy and also really good players more often. It's a new game almost. You can literally feel it when u play a good GOD player, the intentionality of everything they do is scary sometimes. U have to climb the blue ranks all over again under those conditions, at least in my experience.
man, I love seeing how much fun Max has with this game, especially against people who play like this. So, he can actually use that big ass brain of his
Love this format, Max. Couldn't stop smiling the whole time. It's super fun to watch and learn, while watching you both learn from each other with the equally wholesome and hilarious commentary. Then with the yodelling BGM was perfect hah.
I don't even play this game but for some reason it always put a smile in me seen the "coach" videos. This was wholesome and awesome 😄. It basically reminded me when I used to play fighting games with friends without being mad or toxic when losing, which clearly i don't play anymore.
Damn dude, it's been a while since I've felt the joyous comradery of "oh, you piece of shit" of playing against a friend that you can trade games back and forth with.
Some of the matches felt like straight bullying lmao. I really enjoyed the series, felt like 2 people munching quarters and hugging an arcade cabinet improving mutually. Tekken 8 is cool!
Tekken 8 was my first Tekken that Im serious about learning and from what im currently seeing on Phi vs Max is that, Lars Vs Lars is like “Who can out bullshit who with Lars’ move list” 🤣
woo i like the transitions in the video editing, how you use a punches to cut boring parts, so good! Also dude, you make me want to play tekken 8 once again!
I've not played since August, but these are really making me want to play again. Not sure I like the idea of jumping back in at blue ranks completely out of practice though, I was switching between 4 characters (only 1 at blue mind you) so not even sure if my muscle memory will still be there. Also still not a fan of the video cutting out parts of the actual fight, but still a great watch this one. Not quite as much cut out as the last video it felt like which is something at least.
watching you two enjoying tekken 8, make me want to play it. instead of sulking it and complain about how bad tekken 8 is (Arslan...cough) you guys just straight up having fun.
How does one get a coach by the way? I usually can get high ranks I’m fighters but Tekken just has so much for a 2d player... I’ve gotten to purple by myself but can’t get past it
Tekken 8 is the best fighting game, by a wide margin in my opinion, when like Max said you have 2 people playing Tekken. It can also be the most infuriating experience when you have someone just spamming the worst the game has to offer.
Phidix can't win to max with Lars because him hate Lars. To win with Lars u need to love his bullshit and enjoy of it and embrace it like max does.❤ Lol
Why is he putting all this effort into ranking up though, he always plays several games and doesn’t play the games for weeks, if youre not going to be consistent and enter tournaments etc why get tekken king in this yolo game😂
I enjoy getting better but breaking the game down to numbers like the matrix just sounds like sucking the fun of discovery out because it becomes less about feel and like everyone constantly says more so about “optimizing”. I get that it is either way but with the matrix like way of breaking it down it just becomes more of a chore I guess
I used to think this as a kid in the Tekken 5 era when I first heard about numbers etc. But now as an adult I find it adds a whole new layer of fun and interest.
Max got hands 🥵
and they are rated E for everybody XD
@@PhiDX I wish he got to see yours with Lili or Steve, I think it would set a bar to reach or even create another bar not thought of.
Indeed
Most people do in fact have hands, yes
What you mean by that 🤔🤔🤔
16:11 JUST LMAO Doods. PhiDX is such a cool dood, respectful and honest. Prides of FGC in this video
This has genuinely been some of the most entertaining Tekken to watch. Hope y’all continue to collaborate!

This is the cutest most wholesome and feel-good set of matches i've seen in a fighting game in a REAL long time. people are a bit too serious nowadays
22:50 be like "I'm cooked." "I'm back!" "I'm cooked!" "I'M SO BACK!"
Goddamn rollercoaster xD
"THAT'S UNFORTUNATE!""Oh that's unfortunate"

Tekken 8 is so good when you don't have a beach in your ear telling you it sucks.

It does kinda suck, can still be fun but its stupid

I hope you're doing okay bud, I have health issues myself that almost kept me from gaming.
Man, good ass Tekken is Good Ass Tekken

0:12 the timing of Max’s intro for that follow up attack is perfectly timed, Let’s go!
Would've been funny if Max had customized his Lars to look like himself as well
To be fair the orange fit is dope, could use one more color though.
Yeah just throw in some cyan or Magenta accents to really make it pop.
man, I love seeing how much fun Max has with this game, especially against people who play like this. So, he can actually use that big ass brain of his
The collaboration the world needs to see!
PhiDX is so much fun to watch and listen to, he has such a nice dynamic with Max. I wish to see more of him in the channel.
I usually never comment on Max's videos but damn.... this one in particular was super fun to watch. Good stuff.
Love this format, Max. Couldn't stop smiling the whole time. It's super fun to watch and learn, while watching you both learn from each other with the equally wholesome and hilarious commentary. Then with the yodelling BGM was perfect hah.

w max's progress
Super fun watch. Great to see two dudes learning mechanics, cutting sick and having fun.
Been loving this series, hope theres more to it in the future
Damn dude, it's been a while since I've felt the joyous comradery of "oh, you piece of shit" of playing against a friend that you can trade games back and forth with.
Some of the matches felt like straight bullying lmao. I really enjoyed the series, felt like 2 people munching quarters and hugging an arcade cabinet improving mutually. Tekken 8 is cool!
You could probably count the amount of times Phi got his soul snatched from those whiff punishes
To me this is what fighting games are all about. Two people having fun and getting better🔥
Tekken 8 was my first Tekken that Im serious about learning and from what im currently seeing on Phi vs Max is that, Lars Vs Lars is like “Who can out bullshit who with Lars’ move list” 🤣
This video series was GOLD. Keep it up
This was also one of the most fun vids of yours this year to me
woo i like the transitions in the video editing, how you use a punches to cut boring parts, so good!
Also dude, you make me want to play tekken 8 once again!
This was really good, I usually don't watch this stuff but I was hooked
I LOVE THESE VIDS!!, Enjoy the Energy to guys share. Hope to see more🔥🔥🔥💪
Just like what Leon said to Krauser in RE4 Remake : "Nah, Time for the teacher to be taught"
Its nice to watch dudes just having fun playing the game 🤘
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THISSSSS
I've not played since August, but these are really making me want to play again. Not sure I like the idea of jumping back in at blue ranks completely out of practice though, I was switching between 4 characters (only 1 at blue mind you) so not even sure if my muscle memory will still be there.

Huff careful when you coughing blud,must be hurt and coughing alot Everytime Arslan won
(Coughing on 5x Evo)
I wish he would have played phi's Lili
That was immensely fun to watch
I can't believe the actor from Heroes is coaching chad kroeger from Nickleback
This was so wholesome. I could not stop smiling.
Always good to see the student take on the master!
why is the video cut so weird, who edits out THE ACTUAL MATCH
Hopefully we can watch it on Phi's channel
i think they are just trying to make it smaller... and nothing happend on those cuts, but ya i agree with you its wierd lol
This is my peak video of the year ngl.
The collab, Max, I got to know PhiDX, Lars, BIG TEKKEN, a turn of events in coaching and best of all the hype.
loving this format
The Student vs The Master.
Who Will Win?!
Are these coaching videos not the most entertaining content. Love it keep it up ❤️
Watching this series and seeing your progress makes me want to relearn Lars now😅
I have been waiting for this. Glad Max had a lot of fun fighting against PhiDX
Your channel is a source of entertainment as well as education. Keep leading us into the world of knowledge and discovery!🐬🔳🍻
Tekken in general was definitely more enjoyable in long sets. I wish they bring it back. Seriously
im actually learning Lars match up by watching this thanks guys
ngl these t8 streams have been 🔥
Max for the next Tekken Sajam Slam please.
Just wanted to say I noticed u in the viewers for Bigpapachunk's stream for the weekly for SC6 on Wednesday, and I just thought that was cool.
Man I gotta get into this Tekken again. Game is mad fun but the community sometimes annoying af
How does one get a coach by the way? I usually can get high ranks I’m fighters but Tekken just has so much for a 2d player... I’ve gotten to purple by myself but can’t get past it
The Ash cosplay is so on point
This DBZ battle goes CRAZY!
This was so fun to watch! 😂
I love this concept
SO WHOLESOME I LOVE IT!
This is what I need for mirror match
PhiDX sounds like he's fighting for his life in the game, like how he's dying at 16:11 lol
More evidence that the first to 2 system in ranked is kinda crud.
Great collaboration
21:54 bruh
Bro fought so much Jamies during the SF grind that he's quoting him now
Tekken 8 is the best fighting game, by a wide margin in my opinion, when like Max said you have 2 people playing Tekken. It can also be the most infuriating experience when you have someone just spamming the worst the game has to offer.
I am absolutely trash at this game but I really wanna learn Lars does anyone have any tips since this is my first Tekken
I love this series
That was some good ass Tekken.
Fun matches to watch.
Why is max running a Garfield skin?
I've been hearing about the downfall of Tekken 8 and I literally don't see it this game is great bro
This video was beautiful
7:18 I think your in a gd place to Learn SS in Tekken
GAMER FIGHT GAMER FIGHT
Phidix can't win to max with Lars because him hate Lars.
To win with Lars u need to love his bullshit and enjoy of it and embrace it like max does.❤ Lol
Graduation Exam.
Why is he putting all this effort into ranking up though, he always plays several games and doesn’t play the games for weeks, if youre not going to be consistent and enter tournaments etc why get tekken king in this yolo game😂
Tell me youre a Mightly Ruler without telling youre a mightly ruler😂
@ im raijin though😂😂😂😂😂😂🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
@@Hiphopmogo and my rank doesnt matter to my point, if i play more and get tekken god then am i the overlord of all opinions on games???

[insert kung fu panda meme here]
MOOORE TEKKEEEEENNN
This is some of the most entertaining fighting content I’ve ever seen 🫡
THATS SO FUN
I am loving this training arc, its gotten me back in to Tekken 8
The fact he edited out the rounds really upsets me. I’d rather watch the entire games than just what seems like highlights
Anyone else find the micro edits throughout jarring?
Example: 6:42 10 seconds skipped
Kinda hate how there are cuts during rounds. It's disorienting and doesn't seem neccessary. Idk.
3:49
Goood
I enjoy getting better but breaking the game down to numbers like the matrix just sounds like sucking the fun of discovery out because it becomes less about feel and like everyone constantly says more so about “optimizing”. I get that it is either way but with the matrix like way of breaking it down it just becomes more of a chore I guess
every pro uses numbers I agree with you I can't understand shit.
@ I understand it. I just don’t enjoy it.
I used to think this as a kid in the Tekken 5 era when I first heard about numbers etc. But now as an adult I find it adds a whole new layer of fun and interest.
Max always has the ability to go pro
