Don and I both started competing around the same time and he’s been nothing but the nicest and most genuine person. 2 years ago we had a tornado come though Texas and Don reached out to me and other Texas FGC members to make sure we were all ok. He even went through my discord to check on everyone he didn’t have direct contact with. Dude is an amazing person!
I love the underdog stories in the FGC. When it came to Lil Majin, Arslan Ash, Big Bird, and others in many more games is awesome to see and I love rooting for the underdog in any game really.
Many players gain fame by pulling off upset or unexpected wins. Rangchu with his TWT 2018 win with Panda of all characters (Harada-sama himself was like "PANDA?! Really??"). Poongko tearing Daigo Umehara a new one at Evo 2011. HungryBox's amazing come-from-behind victory against Armada at Evo 2016. KaneBlueRiver's clutch win over Filipino Champ at Winter Brawl later that same year (especially considering the FT15 earlier that night). The list goes on and _will continue_ to go on as long as fighting games exist.
Yea tier liat is for noobs.... who prefer to play with ez and imba characters... You know what in recent pakistani tournament all pakistani pros including Atif Butt Akuma , Heera Malik steve , awais honey akuma and many more were beaten by a comparatively new player who was playing bryan... and won the recent tournament...
@@memeplanet69tier list is legit. Do they matter when it comes to winning.? Yes. Now if you have a player thats better than the other player, its just that simple. The player was better. But that doesnt mean Panda is better Jin. Jin is better than Panda. But no one plays Panda, so now the Panda player has a sort of advantage fighting. Unlike Jin even if you are good, everyone has fought against him and he has a traditional playstyle. Not like Panda.
I’m telling you In fighting games it is so entertaining that you can have multiple heavy hitters no one knows about and once they show up to a major tournament they make some impressive stories
you know every time i come and hear these amazing story’s you guys put out for the fgc it just motivates me more as a player overall and keeps my journey going strong
I've known Don since he played on that sunkin submarine ass logitech controller. Words can't describe how far he's come and how proud I am of him. All of us from Atlanta are proud of him. With that being said, Don if you see this message, you'll forever be a noob to me!
This was a remarkable performance by Genghis Don. He is a new player and i first saw him at CEO 21 where he did so well but lost vs Khan's Geese i guess. Then at CB 23, he was a bit unlucky. The fact that he beat Meo IL twice speaks volumes about how good his Katrina is. Koreans have a nasty Katrina in Galgonge but Don showed that his Katrina might even be the best. Special performance
Loved nearly every single FGC story because I love fighting games. Although I rarely am excited enough to pick it up again, this video changed that. I'm more than reinspired
Katarina Alves is one of my favorite characters in Tekken. Love to see her achieve such amazing heights of success in tournaments. All while being played by a (relatively) inexperienced American. Genghis Don is truly an inspiration. His EVO run was quite the divine timing too since it was the last one with Tekken 7, and (unless she's Tekken 8 DLC) this is the only Tekken game in which Katarina appeared.
People can enter and be good just like he said. You can pick what ever character you like just like he said. Yes, practice and gain all the knowledge needed to get to that level. Some people have tendencies or even have a learning curve that may stop them from reaching that level. You need to work on that first and dismantle what ever it is keeping you from doing so. Learn everything you need that the game gives you to learn. You should be good to go from there.
I was watching it from a pro player's restream. The streamer mentioned that Don didn't have good defence and made up for it with his offense,but once you eliminate that from his game plan he becomes easy pickings. Watched that happened less than 15min later💔
Katarina is a very 50/50 guessing spamming high frame advantage character you don't need to be too technical for her just learn all the moves and spam for the best. her 50/50 high speed frame potential will carry you for the lack of skill you possesses just like ghirlanda in the last run of tekken 7 tournament he spams the hell out of the player.
If any of you who only play FPS genre try some fighting genre for once try to learn it, gets into it community and learn more. I started mine a few months ago and it seriously changed my perspective on sweating online games
Man what a cool girlfriend. Notices boyfriend is spending a lot of time on a game. Suggests he goes to a tournament, rather than saying he should quit playing so much.
Guys, when it comes to modern Tekken, you can definitely do it. Legacy is cool and all but you have to remember, they've dumb down the game a lot. Made it noob friendly and easy execution. We also didn't have all this knowledge back then. I mean, Zaibatsu was around for the people that wanted it but there wasn't all the videos and punishment help. Much less strategy videos. Take advantage. All the pros already did all the work for you. You don't have to reinvent the wheel. Enjoy the game. Learn the game and add your own spice to it. You don't have to copy and paste everything, yeah the fundamentals, yes. But add your own flavor to it. You can definitely do it. We haven't seen the best Tekken players yet. But you have to put in the work. And dont over complicate it. You don't need to know all the frame data and every detail about the game. A good SS game and movement will help more than frame data. Good luck to all the ones who hope to make it big one day. And remember, you don't have to be the best ever. There's still room for you if you make it exciting. Or if you have a good underdog story or whatever interesting story you may have.
Im sorry, but I really think if you choose to do a raw super as a last resort your a scrub. Like seeing this mans advancement through the tournament just to get beaten by raw supers is actually annoying. This dude had them on the ropes, and they win like that? I can not give them there props
Before I even watch the video. I just wanna say. I could've did what he did easily. No doubt. We have to stop respecting these Kat players man. It's 4,4 this, and 4,4 that. Backdash uf 4,4. Like there are other buttons on the controller. No respect.
Nah fr tho, this man gengius wants to run trains on dudes from the back all day, running d2 harrier over and over, and when they finally ready to bust out, he pulls out ready for the whiff punish. Shits wild man 💦 😏 🍆
Something so special about fighting games.
The fgc is like no other
Something so great©
@@chupasaurusevery time I think about Tokido saying that at evo I tear up a little, such a great community
@@chupasaurus was trying to remember what he had said haha
Pure passion for the game. That's what it is.
Don and I both started competing around the same time and he’s been nothing but the nicest and most genuine person. 2 years ago we had a tornado come though Texas and Don reached out to me and other Texas FGC members to make sure we were all ok.

person!
Great underdog story - Don is inspiring future USA Tekken players to compete in future global tournaments!
I love the underdog stories in the FGC. When it came to Lil Majin, Arslan Ash, Big Bird, and others in many more games is awesome to see and I love rooting for the underdog in any game really.
All we need is the finals full of americans and we'll shit ourselves.

Panda? Reeeryyy?
"After burning out on Overwatch."I have never related so hard in my life. Maybe we should all fill the void with Tekken and make it to evo ourselves.
Dude plot twisting his own life 💀
What overwatch does to a man,@@M1sT1333
He did a mad run with Katarina!!!
Katarina is easy to use - TMM has an updated tier list review from 6:10 where he places Katarina in the top 15
Genghis gave me a reason to not take tier lists so serious. Any character can dominate in the right hands
2018 evo rangchu with panda
lol obviously, tier lists are for the average player, also katarina's poke game with THAT range is unmatched
Yea tier liat is for noobs.... who prefer to play with ez and imba characters...

his message at the end is so good, so real. the only thing in between you and who you wanna be is a few thousand hours
These videos are always so well-made. Hoping we'll get to see more incredible stories going into Tekken 8.

00:48 quote from the player hit hard.
Great video! I love seeing Tekken getting more attention. 👊🔥

“The only thing that’s between you is a few thousand hours” idk if’s it’s just the way he said it or the genuine truth but ending line did hit.
I watched it live in the crowd the arena was so hype such a good run from this guy.
Did this man say a "few thousand" hours? Shiiiiiiet props tho bro. I fr hope to be up there one day!
Would like more FGC content! Thank you for making this video ❤
Outstanding Kat player! Mad respect! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Hopefully They bring Kat back in Tekken 8. ❤
12:14 This entry has been added to your favorites
The intro alone gave me goosebumps and tears.
Fighting games are probably the best narrative wise and spectator wise for esports viewing
FINALLY MORE FGC CONTENT
This man should be proud! NA is proud of him.
This, Mono and Lil Majin are some of your best videos.
God I fucking LOVE this type of content.
Ive been a Kat main since season 1. Its so inspiring to see this run
Give this man his Katarina in Tekken 8.
I’ve said this before and I’ll say this again FGC content is this best content on This channel
8:05 i swear i thought he said "Me" i was so stunned
😂😂😂
Fighting games are something so great

Awesome vidéo about very great player that i like, specially as Katarina being of my mains in T7
Man i remember seeing this on stream. Such a heart break finish, but it was such a hype run
I was watching it from a pro player's restream.
The streamer mentioned that Don didn't have good defence and made up for it with his offense,but once you eliminate that from his game plan he becomes easy pickings.
Watched that happened less than 15min later💔
That was a dope video, Time to go in on Tekken 8 🤘
Katarina is a very 50/50 guessing spamming high frame advantage character you don't need to be too technical for her just learn all the moves and spam for the best. her 50/50 high speed frame potential will carry you for the lack of skill you possesses just like ghirlanda in the last run of tekken 7 tournament he spams the hell out of the player.
Lmao no
Why is anna not top tier then?
''Katarina is a very 50/50 guessing spamming high frame advantage character'' you are totally clueless
50/50 😂😂
Genghis Don blew my mind the first time I saw him on Evo 2023
I love every documentary segment you all do!
Think you might cover Pokémon events?
You guys need to do One with Verix, a Nagoriyuki Player from Senegal
@7:47 😮😅
I quit playing tekken around covid time, but boi do I still enjoy watching matches
I really wish you would make more Videos about the FGC. It’s my first love and Tekken also. don did the greatest thing for American Tekken ♥️
Arslan Ash the 🐐 🙏🏻
Fgc stories are so hype
Those stories are love to watch.
We want new everytime 😅
If any of you who only play FPS genre try some fighting genre for once try to learn it, gets into it community and learn more. I started mine a few months ago and it seriously changed my perspective on sweating online games
Man, Jurassic Park: Warpath is also my first fighting game
Next is Tekken 2 and Mortal Kombat 3
LET'S GO GENGHISSSS!!!!
Boy may have saved our Kat from the chop. I dream.
Just hope Kat Alves be in Tekken 8
I hope you will one day do video about DanielMado, his Jin is incredible!
Rewatching majins vid after this

That’s an amazing girlfriend. God bless you sir!!

Notices boyfriend is spending a lot of time on a game.

Lady Leg FTW
Great player but what the hell is this Katarina being a weak character business 🤣

His girlfriend's a GOAT!
Pockiston. Lol
Who is this?
W girlfriend
Where is the video on Arslan winning most Evo in Tekken
holi shit lili is low tier!???
Tier list are garbage! They should never ve taken seriously.
i wonder if he’s still dating the girl who got him into tekken 😂
These titles getting repetitive now 😂
Kat is not weak, tf
we really don't need to see your face in these videos, stick to voice overs.

I think only you thought this was funny cuz no one else is laughing. “What a troll xDD” man shut up
Nah fr tho, this man gengius wants to run trains on dudes from the back all day, running d2 harrier over and over, and when they finally ready to bust out, he pulls out ready for the whiff punish. Shits wild man 💦 😏 🍆
sure buddy
hey alright
This channel never talks about COD or Rocket league. Should take “esports” out of the channel name
CoD esports is a joke buddy lol
@@JaMal-oo1tx Missed the point of the comment buddy
yeah this channel needs to talk more about REAL esports like SOCCER WITH CARS!!
That just tells you how much more interesting the FGC esports is than other ones
No one gives a fuck about those two, so it’s fine
