For me Majima's elbow counter in Breaker is somewhat better at some point, both protag counter will increase damage when the heat is low and the counter doesn't stop the enemies like Legend Style and Thug's Harsh Lesson but Majima are the only one who acquire the Calm Towel heat is always low and Breaker also have the wake up move after getting knockdown if fail to hit
@@engineergaming5128 I'm currently playing on Legends difficulty, can I New Game+ with that difficulty or I have to restart from scratch if I wanted to replay the main story
That depends, though, since twist has no I-frames. Counter hook can protect you in a crowd while knocking one or three mooks on their asses, while the twist knocks only one and leaves you open during the animation
@@luizhenriquebraunermoraes3175 But on the other hand, the window on twist counter is so hilariously huge you'll basically never get hit in a 1v1 situation. It turns Shakedown into a joke.
Dragon twist counter is one of my favs to do as well tbh so satisfying. This is definitely the superior option for fighting two Mr Shakedowns though 👍🏻
With the restoration mod installed it becomes the Komaki Parry which is even more hilerious for fighting mr shakedowns, it stuns then a long time and you can wail on them relentlessly. It's even EAISER to do then the tiger drop too!
I would do all the Mahjong stuff for you in exchange for you doing the two most difficult Disco battles for me, and baseball maybe, but then I'm not going for 100% so the two disco ones would be fine, I just wanted to do all the substories really. Ah well.
@@LyingSecret the disco ones , it was so freakin tough man i still remember i spent several hours in order to complete that and then comes that one guy from osaka who is next to impossible to beat but i did beat him eventually but the satisfaction you get after completing that is unbelievable. But the mahjong is soooooooooooo shite ahhhh its not like the game is difficult the npc wins within seconds they always get matching tiles , its made hard on purpose idk why
@@ShivangShandilyaa I could do Mahjong given enough time, it took me around 3 hours in 0 and maybe longer in Kiwami, but even longer in YLAD just because I am not great at it personally. I know enough to stumble through a game, like with KOI KOI, but yeah that disco thing beat me, fuck disco.
I think this is actual part of the outer ring, meaning you need to clear part of the Real Estate Sidequest to unlock access to it, after which you can buy it assuming you got the upgrades before it in the chain.
yakuza kiwami 1 is gonna satisfy your counter hooking its insane honestly
Punctuations.... USE THEM!!!!!
No
@@souvenirerro1105 absolute chad
Counter hook was nerfed to the ground in k1
tiger drop tho..
@@souvenirerro1105 Tiphereth pfp so nice
He definitely didn't sugarcoat it
And thus the art of "not sugarcoating it" was born
Not sugarcoating v0.1
tiger drop basically
Yeah
Tiger hook
The precursor; its power was only growing then.
The Housecat Fall*
It's even safer, if you fail you don't even get hit
I slept on this counter til it was too late honestly. It's so easy to pull off, probably more than the tiger drop I'd say. Not as cool doe
hits really hard if kiryu is drunk with no heat tho
Wow this fight seems like a nightmare for anything below max level
Well you're automatically max level since this is a Climax Battle
Wish I used this move more in my playthrough

how to get cooling towel as kiryu
@@akiyomernot sure, but if you have more than one calming towel, send the second towel to me moneybags for the shared item box so kiryu can pick it up
@@engineergaming5128 thank you

Counter hook on Mr shakedown is so heavenly
I just watched this man make 4x what I make from a full fight with one punch
It's heavily nerfed by my ability to use it tho so not really.
That's literally Tiger drop in the making 😆
no shit bro its literally tiger drop but kiryu doesnt even know what tiger drop is yet
No this is a hook punch instead of straight punch
You think that's bad you should see the twist counter
That depends, though, since twist has no I-frames.

@@sp33d4l0l True. And both are very satisfying to pull off, regardless of difficulty!
I used Legend style for the final bosses, and the urge to twist/knife counter them was so strong, I had to stop myself on multiple occasions 😭
DAYUUUUM
SO TRUE !!!
Wait untill ge finds out about a tiger drop that will be epic
shit is literally tiger drop the prequel 😭😭
He's not gonna sugarcoat it.
Gotta love the s
If you want some fun install the "Komaki Restoration Mod" to swap two of Kiryu's legend style moves in. The Tiger Drop and the Komaki Parry.
Prototype Tiger Drop

Now imagine if you use it while you're drunk
he's not gonna surgarcoat it
hiroyer egungabunga and yucky sat vs joryu jazuma
Just watched this video in 2x speed it make it look a like a shitpost am not gona sugarcoat it video and its perfect
would you lose? Nah, I'd OLGA
Tips : Counter hook is strongest the lower your heat gauge is, so spend your gauge on some heat actions and continue to not sugarcoat it afterward
Alternatively, use moves that consume heat. I know Kiryu has his YYY combo on Brawler and a command grab in XXXYB (Assuming a Xbox controller).
I’m not going to sugarcoat it r1 + l1 + triangle
mahjong is the only thing stopping me from getting plat for yakuza 0 , ahhhhhh i hate mahjong
The game never tells you to play mahjong, eventually you'll go on your own

@@LyingSecret I will help with all your disco battles but you have to help me beat space harrier and fantasy zone
I haven’t reached this part yet. They are going to ruin me 😫
I’m in awe
just bought this game, is this the equivalent tk royal guard in dmc3?
doesn't beat kiwami drunk+rush combo glitch+L2-R2 beast style+komaki parry -> dragon king essesnce
you could one shot 10 bars with that lol
Twist Counter is better for damage.
This is one of the climax battles which I don't believe you have access to Legend styles.
You might be right, but its been *months* since I did the climax battles for 0.@@atlasreborn7221
Are there any good spots to practice counter hook's timing?
I would recommend ultimate battles but sadly you have to finish every other climax battle although some climax battles can be good to hone your skills
How do you get the move?
brawler training with bacchus
