1:29 if ur a drag main this is not surprise or the taunting . Silver lining farming content is easier for jarl . Good vid and keep up the good work . P.S no mercy to king mains
Listen, as a T7 Drag main it hurt seeing my boy get NO TOURNAMENT PLAY for almost two years (outside of the three times Nobi used him). I don't feel too bad seeing him dominate tournaments for a while. Also idc how many residentsleepers I see in chat, Drag mirrors go waaaaaay harder than T7 Feng and Kuni mirrors.
thats what many ppl sadly dont get, seeing drag in tournaments is awesome imo. does he have rly good and strong tools? yes, but he is still a mainly fundamentals character, so i rly enjoy watching him in competetive at least more than your typical 50/50 chars like shaheen who just threatens with slide, mishima 50/50 hellsweep/d2 gaming and well.. gimmicky stuff like alisa and yoshi. dont get me wrong i dont hate on ak, keisuke or kaneandtrench for example, its fun to watch them but its just the right amount of their respective chars presence, seeing more of their chars would quickly become plain. also by the looks of it, his recent nerfs did make an impact so far, ulsan attempted 3 tournaments and won neither, got 2nd twice and once dropped out in top16.
I may not like Dragunov after running into 7 of him in a row on ranked, but I very much can appriciate some Jarl Jarl schenanigens and a banger video. That said, lets go!
I love dragunov so much! I main him, because I love him, and even when they shredded him in t7, I still loved him. Play your main, always, and play who you love beyond all tiers and strength. (Bracing for the imminent exodus once Drag suffers :( and goes to brazil)
LET'S FUCKING GO TOP 1 CHARACTER GAMING fr I requested a drag video a while ago so I'm glad to finally see it. Edit: surprising lack of qcf 4 in the video. Ulsan would not be pleased.
I don't know if you'll see this or if it'll matter too much but fyi as a drag tip b1+2 after heat engager isn't very optimal. It can be parried very easily and if they do press your don't get as much reward. After heat engager go fo ff2, it still lockdowns, can't be parried and ch launches for a full combo
Dragonuv is an honest character🙃 But honestly I’m glad they nerfed him because design wise he lost his identity in Tekken 8 because they straight up buffed him for the sake of buffing and not buffing his design
@@XIVDock Ok Dragonuv before was a very momentum based character that has powerhouses of mids but didn’t have much tracking or wall damage, so to keep people from side stepping moves like while running 2 you would use his one decent but not great low to keep them locked down and if they take the bait you can land a mid, but now they gave him a new low, the giant kick or axe, not only was this a safe low but it tracked the one thing Dragonuv wasn’t that good with and they gave more tracking to more of his moves and buffed his wall damage absurdly, a character like Xiaoyu has great oki and mix ups but what kept her from being overpowered was that she didn’t have a big damage output so combine that with how much damage she does in 8 and you deal with a nightmare. Dragonuv was considered a low tier and the changes with his damage, tracking and lows buffs made him lose the design he had because when making a character you want to have some holes in the design to keep them balanced but they stuffed the holes with Dragonuv designs. IDK how I would exactly change Dragonuv but I know tracking moves for him shouldn’t be that strong and if you read this then thank you and let me know your thoughts on it👍
@@AnotherSanchez tbh im partly on par with your statement but there are some things i see quite differently. i'd assume the safe low you mentioned is his fc1,4 by being -13 ob? which is restricted to be only available in crouch. Bec cant be hatchet, it was never safe, it went from -15 to -31 oB his old itdentity is still there just his old design was by far undertuned in comparison for the other chars in the game, he had a (best case)18dmg wall combo while chars like AK had 19dmg + guaranteed oki or dvj having a 28dmg wall combo. it just didnt work well with his kit, what great does having a great wall carry have when you are no threat at the wall/have just lil reward for getting there. they didnt kill his identity they just fixed his flawed design, he still is a movement based powerhouse, just now he actually gets a reward correctly utilizing his wall travel (at least with conserving !T, his normal wall ender is 20dmg which is the average in t8). im not saying he is balanced, but nerfing the tracking making it was more sidesteppable and plus frames to +2/+3 on his snk4 would pretty much seal the deal, then its a weaker but heat engaging wr2, still a move with purpose. in this case he would still be linear as he was used to be and had to track with d2 his recent nerfs alr kinda had an effect imo since ulsan didnt win 1 out of 3 tournaments he participated in. but his dmg isnt as broken as many ppl think, his 15f combo deals 67dmg and with wall it gets to ~85dmg, characters like bryan laugh about these numbers easily getting in the 90s with every launch.
@@h4b3e1n9b0Rn thank you for correcting me because this is the first time I ever said my thoughts on a fighting game character in the comments 👍 And it’s hard giving an explanation when I spent most of the time playing Julia and Leo in Tekken 5 and 6 so going off from that isn’t the best
I saw a lot of Street Fighter X Tekken soundtrack in there and all I'm gonna say: it would've been so cool to see Dragunov and Lee in Street Fighter X Tekken. What a shame.
Damn that intro was a good fakeout. Also is your PC ok? Some of these matches had the stages looking so blurry I was worried my eyesight was getting worse but others looked just fine.
Combination of Drag's best tools having been nerfed over the course of T7 (specifically the tracking on his wr2) and other characters having been buffed and new strong DLC characters being added to the game. He also didn't have a bunch of really good moves they gave him in T8 (qcf4, hatchet kick, fcdf1,4).
His best low was d2, which while a good low, was generally not scary enough to make people want to duck. If you ever had to make a comeback off a life deficit in T7, you really had to play your ass off.
@@alphaamigo9688 yeah QCF 4 is over tuned as fuck but the T7 version was so much fun. Hitting a random as fuck chain throw was awesome. Also I get hes been nerfed like a lot, I've just never had a problem with it. (Other than OG leroy. Fuck Leroy.)
www.patreon.com/c/JarlSwagDog does anyone even remembers splinter cell
I was going to comment how I loved the OG Splinter Cell reference - good shit man. Chaos Theory CO-OP is the still the shit :)
Blade 2 fight as the intro? Hell yea
YES SIR

Hot take: I'm happy a cool character like Dragunov is a top tier in this game, considering the meta in the last Tekken. *cough* Kuni *cough*

THAT IS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT
THAT IS THE CONTENT I SUBSCRIBED FOR
Dragunov simulator is a very balanced game 👌 !
Your intros will never not be funny,keep up the great work
4:20 ah yes the back backshots

So this is the solid snake of Tekken definitely feels like a tank of force pressure and defense and power play with stun.
LET'S FUCKING GO TOP 1 CHARACTER GAMING

AINT NO WAY THE MAN PLAYED THE OG SPLINTER CELL OPENING MUSIC IN HIS OPENING
do steve fox unless i missed it, coulda sworn there was one

Hey Jarl, what guest characters do you want to see in T8?
Knut is so freakin Norwegian, I love him
Did not expect you to use Crawl from ggst but I'm pleasantly surprised
Dragonuv is an honest character🙃
But honestly I’m glad they nerfed him because design wise he lost his identity in Tekken 8 because they straight up buffed him for the sake of buffing and not buffing his design
What was his design and how would you have buffed it instead?

"Pick a top tier!"
suprised i did not see many rage quits not gonna lie, but man tk how to deliver W vids 😭🙏🏾
I saw a lot of Street Fighter X Tekken soundtrack in there and all I'm gonna say: it would've been so cool to see Dragunov and Lee in Street Fighter X Tekken. What a shame.
Song at the very beginning of the vid?
Gurenge, first OP for Demon Slayer
How could a Leeroy beat a pissed off dragunov you’d have to be a low tier god to make that work
Damn that intro was a good fakeout.
Also is your PC ok? Some of these matches had the stages looking so blurry I was worried my eyesight was getting worse but others looked just fine.
Intro music?
Its fine guys he got nerfed hes not top 1 anymore hes only top 3
lets gooooo new Jarl Videooooooo
4:07 battle fucking ruler rank btw
He has only one high damage combo and he is to easy.
The goat with another upload!!!!
#1 combo dropper be me tho. Electric, D2, F bomb
Dragunov was apparently a low tier in Tekken 7...and i just dont fucking see how.
Combination of Drag's best tools having been nerfed over the course of T7 (specifically the tracking on his wr2) and other characters having been buffed and new strong DLC characters being added to the game. He also didn't have a bunch of really good moves they gave him in T8 (qcf4, hatchet kick, fcdf1,4).
His best low was d2, which while a good low, was generally not scary enough to make people want to duck. If you ever had to make a comeback off a life deficit in T7, you really had to play your ass off.
Apparently you never played T7 then
@@Eskimofo13 i am literally a dragunov main in tekken 7 I do not see the issue
@@alphaamigo9688 yeah QCF 4 is over tuned as fuck but the T7 version was so much fun. Hitting a random as fuck chain throw was awesome.
Also I get hes been nerfed like a lot, I've just never had a problem with it. (Other than OG leroy. Fuck Leroy.)
