He was a midscreen oki character in T7 but since everyone insisted they play him the same way as every other character I guess Bandai felt like they had to give him more wall game so players would stop playing him wrong and assuming he was bad because it didn't work.

when you're doing these guides. Can you turn on the button inputs that you're pressing? As a newer player is really help for me to understand all the technical game terms you're using. Can't wait to see more content from ya! 😃
Dude, thank you so much for your fantastic content. I've been playing 2D fighters for decades, but I was always a bit intimidated by Tekken. I mostly just admired from afar haha. But your channel has been integral in helping me finally learn, and I'm REALLY enjoying T8. You make the game exponentially easier to understand and enjoy, and omfg...your Electrics. O__o. 11/10
At 1:29 the wall throw is WR4. (While Running Right Kick) It does a hitgrab on the opponent when it hits. For that combo you need to hit the opponent with it while they are in wall stun At 5:00 the combo is: u/f4, d3 2 1+2 (Up Forward Right Kick, Down Left Kick, Right Punch, Left Punch + Right Punch at the same time)
being a rather inexperienced/new tekken player I really wish you put the annotations for the combos you mentioned on screen so it was easier to follow but other than that love the style of content
goddamn this character is sick btw a couple of things he got that u missed are 1) ff4 now gives a guaranteed crouch throw heat engager on regular and counter hit 2) b4,2,1 last hit counter hit also gives a crouch grab or b4,3 if ur fast enough both heat engagers, second leads to combo with heat dash. there's definitely more shit that we'll discover with time but goddamn am i having fun with drag
Dunno if you still care but it's basically worthless. It makes your next hit a counter hit, so you'll see people use it in practice to show the different between normal and counter hit properties. Takes way to long to use in a match. Never seen anyone do it for a reason other than trolling/taunting. Only Hwoarang can make use of it in the middle of a combo that I've seen.
@themainmanSwe Why you skip the last part. How to counter/beat Dragunov? Or the General rules of playing aginst a certain characters, is this gonna be a separate video? For me it's the most important part :(
Me and my dad loved playing tekken 7 and he has been a lot better than me but thanks to you he doesn't stand a chance when we eventually sit down and play tekken 8
Getting bryan to emperor was way easier compared to getting there with dragunov (im now at ryujin with him) and people say bryan is hard... He is probably the most honest character in the game.
@@BlakeToups-tc4np So? that's hardly a problem. And I'm skeptical whether they would need to for the majority of matches. Damage output used to be lower than what it is in Tekken 7 and now 8, I doubt they went over time constantly.
My guy went from zero wall damage to giga wall damage

We love to see it
I'm happy i'm not abandon him since tekken 6
Let’s just hope his mids are actually mid in this one
@@sanada-vkk3315 we main this bad ass character
JDCR better not win too hard with Dragu or we’ll still be saying how bad Dragunov is.
What about Dragunov's tracking?? TMM never mentioned if Dragunov's moves tracks any better than the current T7 Dragunov.
Just don't win against Harada
Shhhhh!

Being a drag main for all of T7 i seriously cannot wait for this
Dragunov is an absolute freakin' MONSTER!!!! I play Tekken Tag 2 and he's my main with Heihachi
JDCR NOBI redemption arc begins
I've waited so long for Dragunov to be good again after T7 Season 1. So glad they made him strong while also giving him his own unique intricacies.
I hope they don’t nerf him into the dust in the future
strength is relative
wait and ser how he fares against everyone else
No manual tackle anymore though.
Huge nerf

Dragunov at the wall: If he dies, he dies.
No comments for this beautiful gem? I quote this movie at least 5-10 times a year 😂
My boy, my boy. My big strong boy. Appreciate all these character run downs man.
So excited for JDCR's reaction 😊
Okay now I finished the video, after maining Drag at the end of T7 I can't wait for all the new toys and tech in T8.
I'm getting PTSD. It was like this on T7 before he got nerfed to the ground. I'm scared for his future. I hope they don't do him wrong this time
First time getting back into tekken since 3 and drag is who ive gravitated to first. Hes such a badass. Glad to hear hes better. Thanks for this
He's tricky but it's worth getting good with him
Not giving him a tank or smth in the rage art is really missed oppurtunity when now every character has some crazy shit in their ra
He literally freezes the screen lol
I agree but suspect they stayed away from it cause of Ukraine situation.
I am glad that the new moves are very useful. It's time for some good-ass Tekken with the white angel of death!!!
No shot 8 minute guides are back
one of the few chars I wouldn't change a bit of his original costume, sick!
I'm SO hyped that my main is back!
I mostly play DJ and Leroy, but Drag always looked interesting to me. Might give him a go, looks super fun.
T8 community gunna have a problem with the White Angel of Death.
Been eyeing Dragunov since his reveal trailer. New main this time around 🤘
oh no he is basically balanced marduk now 💀💀
Wow that wall throw into wall combo damage was nutty
what's the command for that wall throw please ?

I laughed also before I seen your comment 😂😂😂😂
Right!?🤣😂🤣😂
I dont have words fir the combo damage
El mainman releasing the good stuff just in time to feed my hype as i wait.
Great video. Just started playing dragunov. Beast
I’m lovin’ this character so much! Dude is so fun with all his pressure and mix. His hits are beefy af too, lol.
this is not really a guide lol
Yeah, more of a overview of the character
@GtekiPS you're not gonna learn the character in 8 minutes... sorry, man.
@@smashdown958 okay? Still clickbait none the less.
Good ol 8 minute guides
My boi got the first 8-minute guide, hell yes
Beyond hyped on Drags upgrades in Tekken 8. Stoked to try some of these new mixups 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
You forgot about the big buff b43, which is now 14 frame and heat engager
the content drop is hype
My man Sergei!! Back and better than ever!!😎👍
we are so back (never left)
Thanks! I will main the White Angel of Death.
Loving the series. Waiting for the Jack one :)
JDCR and Nobi-san gonna have a buffet with this rebooted Dragunoppu
Finally, Dragunov is good again.....
I swear he was never bad 😂. I’m a Dragu fan though so I’m here for it.
That warrior within pic brings me back. Great soundtrack
@@TheGreatAustino absolute bangers.
@@blockchainballer4542thank you from 6-7 now 8 was never bad
Tbh, he is so smooth! They really did him good
I like your vids but I can’t understand what you saying a lot of the time cause I can’t see what you are inputting
Can't wait to see what the pros do with Dragunov and Jack-8.
I did an audible "what the fuck" from that wall damage.
Where my Year 1 Drag mains at?
Since he came out )
Reporting in!
LFG
TMM coming out with an eight minute for main right out the gate, hell yeah
Glad I picked this guys as my sec character
I wish he had his inputs on, can't figure out how to do the wall grab at 1:29 or the combo at 5:00

At 5:00 the combo is:
u/f4, d3 2 1+2
(Up Forward Right Kick, Down Left Kick, Right Punch, Left Punch + Right Punch at the same time)
Even if he had inputs on you wouldn't never understand it. Just play the game in practice mode and go through movelist everything is there

not that complicated lol XD
JDCR and Qudans are going to be INSANE on t8 😭
I can’t wait to play against a good drag with Bryan. I can already imagine how brutal that matchup will be
goddamn this character is sick btw a couple of things he got that u missed are
1) ff4 now gives a guaranteed crouch throw heat engager on regular and counter hit
2) b4,2,1 last hit counter hit also gives a crouch grab or b4,3 if ur fast enough both heat engagers, second leads to combo with heat dash.
there's definitely more shit that we'll discover with time but goddamn am i having fun with drag
Thank you, this was helpful!
Your videos and guides are great, but you need to use the inputs on screen for more clarity
Noob question, what's the use of the 1234 button press (charging energy animation)
Dunno if you still care but it's basically worthless. It makes your next hit a counter hit, so you'll see people use it in practice to show the different between normal and counter hit properties. Takes way to long to use in a match. Never seen anyone do it for a reason other than trolling/taunting. Only Hwoarang can make use of it in the middle of a combo that I've seen.
Happy to see Drag get some quality of life buffs. He’s one of the best all-around characters imo
Bro. You are insane. You’ve been working HARD! Pooping out these videos!
Dragunov looks suuuper sick. This game actually looks insane I might buy it even if it's 800kr
No miguel so gonna try up my dragunov game
man what would i do without you
Can you display inputs for future tutorials? 🙏

love that attire of dragonov 😊
Just like Tekken 7 season 1, it seems like JDCR is gonna be eating good
Replace everytime he said a free stomp, to a free qcf4 for 2 extra damage 👍
Imho he's still strong in Tekken 7...I got similar results with him as I got with Steve and Devil Jin
Getting bryan to emperor was way easier compared to getting there with dragunov (im now at ryujin with him) and people say bryan is hard...
He is probably the most honest character in the game.
@@EggscellentTree I was planning on giving Bryan a try
He can add tackle to wr 2 im like bro wtf are they doing up there 😂
getting to the lab right now!
"Russian Michael Jackson isn't real.He cannot hurt you."

Thanks for these guides MMSWE
I am just getting into Tekken for the first time and this sounded like a different language! Hahah I look forward to learning though.
Such a cool design.... hope storm collectibles make him into a figure
Great guide thank you
How to do wall grab?
Tekken 8 Drag is an absolute monster
would like to see the input history to see what buttons you are pressing
We can all smell the nerf
Yea this feels too good to be true 😢
I think I will play this character. thanks
Main man with the early access again classic
Dragunov mains: we’re so back
Thanks!
You can now combo out of his uf4 if you micro dash into b4,3 and bound with b1,2. Absurd tech
You are on fire today!
Awesome, this is exactly what I need! Thank you!
okay, now I want to main him.
Wow. What a glow up for Dragunov. Very oppressive offense.
I didn’t throughly check, but did they remove his ultimate tackle from neutral? It looks like he can only tackle after a certain move now.
Yes, no tackling at will now... and the feint roll is gone too, loved to do that then side grab my opponents.
I was really hoping for damage to get nerfed significantly in this game...
They’d have to increase the time limit.
@@BlakeToups-tc4np So? that's hardly a problem. And I'm skeptical whether they would need to for the majority of matches. Damage output used to be lower than what it is in Tekken 7 and now 8, I doubt they went over time constantly.
One day in, and I found a 117 damage combo, life is good for Dragnov 😂
Can you show ur input history please? You keep mentioning moves without showing what their buttons are (ie. the wall splat throw),
Since Dark ressuraction my main❤
Drag has been my first character loving him so far. One question how do you do the wall grab???
