Too bad. They already said in interviews they want to make every character ‘equally broken’. Which is why they will do something about something as garbage as ‘safe power crushes’ and ‘homing throws’, but not things people complain Yoshi has or Dragunov. I honestly don’t like the direction but it’s more fun than T7 so I’m happy.
Thank you for finally doing this and understanding that Hwo mains don’t have it as easy as everyone thinks. He’s not a character you can just be good at right away, and as you level up it becomes harder to win with him if the other player knows what he’s doing
There are literally 0 characters you can be good at right away, once you get to players who know matchups any character will struggle... The thing most people hate with Hwo is his near infinite pressure, and most Hwo players tend to go "monkey ape" on the pressure, funnily enough, it's why most Hwo players give up in blue ranks because the spam doesn't work any more.
@@fronix5060you don’t understand, it’s above all a very difficult to pilot character. When people play well it is twice as hard to win than with an easy character because of this complexity which makes it harder to adapt etc.
19:03 Feng's backturn flow charts usually come from 4 moves: ss2, f4b, 3,3,4 (4 is cancelable with a back input), and 1,2,2b. Of these, only ss2 lets him do the flow chart on block without being interruptible. If you see you blocked an f4, 3,3,4, or 1,2,2 and they're backturned, it's absolutely your turn. That being said, bt-d3 crushes high (and maybe some mids, I didn't lab too many of those), and bt-2 powercrushes but is punishable on block. Backstep is also a good measure against his backturn because of bt-d3's clean hit property. If they use ss2 to start this often, sidestepping, ducking or good spacing will usually shut that down. If you suspect bt-d3 but don't want to risk taking a bt-2, a jumping, low crushing mid will catch a bt-d3 and won't take as much damage from bt-2 while also denying bt-2's heat engage property. Hope this was helpful
Wow. You got really good at it. Respect. Have been following you for quite some time and you've grown as a player and a man. Keep up the good work The godfather of Tekken community.
That’s 80 damage with the just frame on lightning halberd and you dont always have heat available to call this a bnb combo. You can get 79 dmg with no heat if you do U3+4, F2, F3, F2 micro dash RFF 3, UF3+4F, UF4 T!, dash into motion switch F3, 4~3 but it needs a deep dash and the second hit of lightning halberd doesnt connect on smaller characters so just do F3 into B3 or UF3+4 for wall-carry!
One of my friends and I challenged each other to learn a character the other hates facing so that we can play long sets against the character we suck against. He challenged me to play Howarang and I challenged him to play Ling. And Hwoarang is so far from pick up and play. My friend says the same about Ling But I've been liking Hwoarang. He's quite fun. Just the responsiveness on the buttons feel great and different from any other Tekken character. Whether you're running your offense or doing combos, etc.
Thing is hwoarang is easy to pick up and just play to have fun and quick succession on low ranks until you hit a brick wall where you have to start to learn the game and his really good combos which arent easy cause he has tons of options AND a lot of people on intermediate ranks know how to play against him which makes it even more difficult
Hello TheMainMan , i have a request ... We know how the tekken team tried to simplify the game by introducing "special style" for new commers, would be fun to see how far you can get only using special style on an alt account ... Love your content !
Hey MainMan, i knwo it doesnt matter in 2024 but i found a kazuya tekken 6 combo that gets 92 damage if youre sitting at juuuust the right distance from the wall
Basically the higher rank you reach, the more your account prowess goes up. Account prowess goes onto multiple characters, so for example my devil Jin is Mighty Ruler but I play against people who are usually at least 180,000~ prowess because I have 195,000~ prowess. I’m also pretty sure ranking up other characters increases prowess too, but most times it’ll just be because somebody has one character levelled higher
To be fair hworang has been broken since tekken3 until hes nerfed hard in tekken8. As a main hworang its really hard to play him on high rank. hes down 3-4 is so predictable and he lacks a good 50/50 like most of the characters.
I had so enough of ss df2 flowcharts laziest thing in the world and you cant even punish it and it also crushes highs whoever made df2 a safe mid launcher should go to jail
Idk I'm still gonna ft1 and block every single Whoreang I come across. I absolutely despise this character since Tekken 7 and he's become even more obnoxious in T8. Playing against other characters over time gave me some knowledge how to fight against them, but with Whoreang (and yes, I refuse to call him anything else) it's always just mashy randomness for me. I'm not gonna go and lab every single move that he can do out of every single of his stances (which will still barely help). He's not fun to play against at all. Just look at the round on 12:20, for christ sake. It's a constant blender of guessing where the Whoreang will hit next with all his leg strikes that look annoyingly similar and are almost always plus on block so you just sit down and wait. Ew.
I liked fighting against him in Tekken 7. In Tekken 8 it's another story. The amount of tracking and tracking mids is ridiculous. And he got way stronger lows and a bunch of launchers. In Tekken 7 he got a launcher years after launch and his lows were meh and had bad tracking. In Tekken 8 he is a complete character with zero weaknesses, like most characters.
@ not a real complaint I’m jus making a simple statement. I’ve fought several people who just spam rage in ranked as soon as it’s available and no with no strategy behind and they lose. For the special style I just think it’s funny they turn it on when they start losing or can’t do something
@@kareemaotibi1439 I don’t lose to any of them in any situation they honestly make my life easier 😭 but I think it’s just boring sometimes I just be tryna get the match over w then I got to watch a short film 3 times in a row
Love how he’s picking up every character and showing the cheese with every character. Hopefully th devs see this and give us a great season 2.
What cheese you absolute baffoon?
This is what we truly want.
I was hoping for less cheesy garbage moves after Tekken 7 but got disappointed...
Is d34 the 4444 the string cheese you’re talking about

The de-twinkification of hwoarang needs to be studied fr
It’s the evolution to a twunk that needs to be studied
It's just twink death, man got too old
Ive never considered him twinky but hes handsome af now like seriously his facelift in 8 is impeccable

Took all the chad out of Steve and pumped it straight into Hwo’s jaw.
He protecc

He kicc
As a Hwoarang main and a cockatiel owner, I approve this message.

Immediately whiffs d34 and gets launched

Mainman playing my main man. I'm impressed with main mans ability to play different characters on a base level
the midway rant about richie and leo has me ROLLING
Seems you enjoy playing with different characters. Keep it up, it's nice to see this once in a while
A quick bread and butter for orbital combo is u34, F2, F3, F2, uf34f, UF4, dash 34, 3~4, HB, f34, f3, 4~3. About 83 damage
That’s 80 damage with the just frame on lightning halberd and you dont always have heat available to call this a bnb combo.

One of my friends and I challenged each other to learn a character the other hates facing so that we can play long sets against the character we suck against. He challenged me to play Howarang and I challenged him to play Ling.
And Hwoarang is so far from pick up and play. My friend says the same about Ling
But I've been liking Hwoarang. He's quite fun. Just the responsiveness on the buttons feel great and different from any other Tekken character. Whether you're running your offense or doing combos, etc.
Hwo is STYLISH AF.
Finally playing my main I’ve been wanting this for time
36:00 "no thanks, only Jin's" 😂
Hwoarang is all about that fancy footwork
From heat smash wall bound, press 2 than 3 for bound
I will agree there’s cheese everywhere but I like how strong all the characters are.
I've been silently praying for Hwoarang content by TMM and god damn it paid off
hope you like the character TMM so we can see some more:D
Lol weird, I just watched that video.
Baek has taught Hwoarang well
Thing is hwoarang is easy to pick up and just play to have fun and quick succession on low ranks until you hit a brick wall where you have to start to learn the game and his really good combos which arent easy cause he has tons of options AND a lot of people on intermediate ranks know how to play against him which makes it even more difficult
For me I think the most annoying character to fight is Yoshi he just forces you to play differently.
I played Lico yesterday. He’s definitely a feng player lol. He played my Hwoarang as well lol
Why does "asuckamadick" always get me bro
Can anybody tell me what track is playing around 7:24 ?
Ive been waiting for this for so long lmao. Hwoarang is such a fun character lol

how to bound on wall from right flamingo - flying eagle 3~4 or from left flamingo 4~3
I like how when someone asked how he knows hwo combos he lies he doesn’t know at all 😂
Can I get a tmm xiaoyu/Lily arc
"If you cant beat them, join them"
19:08 its sidestep 2
8:49 there's nothing hwoarang can do in this situation to avoid the rage art btw
As if Mainman has become a kickboi
FINALY WHORANG
Finally receiving respect as a hwoarang player. I never thought this day would come🥺
20:48 song name plz
whats the song that plays when hes facing claudio??
Hey MainMan, i knwo it doesnt matter in 2024 but i found a kazuya tekken 6 combo that gets 92 damage if youre sitting at juuuust the right distance from the wall
How exactly do you even look out for down 3,4?? it feels imposible
Sad how tmm didnt make a vid on reacting to the recent Ulsan vs Knee GF :(
How does the prowess system work ?
Basically the higher rank you reach, the more your account prowess goes up. Account prowess goes onto multiple characters, so for example my devil Jin is Mighty Ruler but I play against people who are usually at least 180,000~ prowess because I have 195,000~ prowess.
I’m also pretty sure ranking up other characters increases prowess too, but most times it’ll just be because somebody has one character levelled higher
