      Some great advice this is how I think of the game but for me its like "holy shit I've never seen that move before" welp.. "Time to learn how to punish it."

    I find strings re-aligning and so many later moves in strings bring CH launchers to be the most frustrating aspect of Tekken, personally. The scientific method approach really helps give a mental visualization. Thanks for this

  • @negative1001
    @negative1001 6 місяців тому +16

    By using essentially this same method I found that learning how to deal with strings, even ones I’ve never seen before, get much easier overtime, and that’s because you’ll start going through that checklist during matches.
    You’ll start automatically thinking to yourself “Huh that string looks like a Mid, High, Mid, so if I can’t punish it I’ll try to duck it” and whether it works or not, it’ll be a sign that your understanding of strings has improved significantly. It makes the journey of Tekken very enjoyable

    This is actually something that i always say about fighting games to people that are beginners, which is, fighting games are kind of a thinking man's game, you have to be always asking questions to try to find solutions to problems on the fly, thats what makes engaging, having a scientific method moves you toward the right mentality to have fun playing this genre

    I really appreciate how you show the method rather than the answers. A lot of other tekken videos I've watched throw a lot of information and answers at me that don't really stick with me in game. Tekken 8 is the 1st FG where I've actually used features like punishment and replays to actively learn while playing. I find it much more valuable and fun than watching an hour long guide on what moves i should use against x character. thanks

    Great video, and I love how this game also encourages this with replay takeover. It still doesn't tell you every solution, especially sidesteps, but so many barely punishable things have become obvious to me through that and I can't thank it enough. It truly is a feature that benefits tekken so much.

    hey. first tekken, coming from basically a lifetime mkx/dbfz player. excited to be starting, even bought a leverless controller. not important.
    a quick google search revealed you've got quite a bit of accolades under your belt. a player that's done as much as you, honestly has no business creating beginner tekken vids.
    but thank you for doing it. really appreciate it. insight you're giving is insane. i haven't had to actually learn a game (or controller) again in years. you're definitely making the process smoother. eventually i'll offer what you do in fighting games. thanks again.

  • @machineo12887
    @machineo12887 3 місяці тому

    Intermediate player here, this is my biggest hurdle. Everyone knows their character, and the game mostly comes down to who can run their offense. Learning one character in Tekken takes hundreds of hours... and then to play defense you find out you need to learn 31 others. Thanks for the guide, this is exactly what mid level players like myself need. I really appreciate the acknowledgement that not getting blown up isn't as simple as "just block/sidestep bro"

    What sucks is without deathmatching it becomes way harder to adapt to someone's bullshit during a set.
    Game 1 you get blown up
    Game 2 you are trying to figure out what to do
    There is no game 3-4-5-6-7-etc
    Makes it so much more frustrating man

    woooow! bro ... I just got Tekken 8 a couple days ago. This is my first fighting game. I'm blown away with how deep this game goes.
    Before playing Tekken, I did not understand how much skill goes in to this. I use to think all fighting games were just basically beat em up games. But it's actually a puzzle game in disguise. So beautiful.
    Quick question. For anyone here in the community, I decided to stop learning combos. I felt like learning more about how defense and angles work in this game seemed to be a better use of my time. And low key, I've been having more success. Even against players that spam their special style bullshit. After watching this video, I think need to start implementing punishing moves to my training. Do ya'll think this is a good road map? Is there anything else you'd suggest that I add to my training?

    • @bobxbaker
      @bobxbaker 6 місяців тому

      @@BoomtetrisforJeff well alisa is a bit of a special case, her attacks aren't telegraphed as normal punches and kicks which is why i struggle, in a way she's similar to bob which just looks like a spinning ball to me.
      so identifying and categorizing the attacks is just very difficult, the only read i've managed so far is that when chainsaws are out and she manages to hit me on block or otherwise she's plus after meaning i could try and duck or sidestep after but because she's so agile a back dash won't do much but let her keep attacking.
      but i will try this sidestep blocking thing because they are throwing out strings and if i can manage to identify which attacks i can sidestep it will go a long way.
