    In this video I go over the best Jack-8 moves and how I use them, along with the usual Ranked Battle matches to demonstrate all of the things I teach. I've been competing with Jack in tournaments for well over 10 years and I hope that this breakdown + demonstration will serve you well. I show off some of my favorite strats and how to execute them in a match. Enjoy!

      Its literally me except the missing 1% is "wouldn't it be hilarious if I did this?" And then become hyper fixated on doing the silly fun move I stead of actually winning the set

    Dash db1 into dash db1 into dash db1. Once you have conditioned them not to swing. Dash also makes it track. My favourite T7 sequence. But in T8 Jackhammer is 50% less guaranteed damage against ducking opponent. And db1 is +1 instead of +2. Still works but not as dominating.

    Hello Anakin Sensei! Could you do an in depth video of the Jack vs DJ matchup? It feels really hard to win those, even tho in 7 we had less tools and Jack is amazing in this game. I have been practicing mostly anti-dj, but even the frame knowledge hasnt made me beat em. I lose 8/10 games vs DJ players.

    Why don't you stance after a blocked ff1? It's +4 on block if you do that, and can you have options from stance to deal with any response. Is it because it's effectively a guess/read?

      Im on pad and the thing to remember is that it’s one full motion. When you do the half circle motion into df, don’t lift your thumb. Move it from the f to d position and you get a natural flowing df that’ll get you those blue sparks effortlessly

    I only played so much of the last game. Probably not gonna hit this till Bargain Bin lv prices.
    I'll be doing Helldivers II instead. If I'm gonna do a hard drive hungry fighting game for now, least KOF has some good attitude and a deeper world that feels more lived in. It's true though we need more 3D movement fighters. This 2.5 stuff has been over done at this point.
    Another Soul Calibur or a BLOODY ROAR is what we actually need on the fighting scape.
