Meet Phi “PhiDX” Lam, who brings a rare combination of pro-level Tekken play, entertainment and education that few pros OR content creators are able to harness. And it’s brought him to places that even he didn’t expect to go.
So how did Final Fantasy XV get PhiDX into Tekken? How did he end up coaching Lilypichu? And how the Hell did he end up beating Arslan Ash on-stage, at a tournament - and then training alongside him?

Omg I got one 😭🎉
Congrats, wish you the best and keep up the good work. I need your videos to improve!!! I just recently hit Fujin with Lili!
You deserve it bro! Thank you for everything you do!
You deserve it dude. Best Tekken Content Creator
MainlessKing recognition!
🐐
Dude, wait, this is the man who taught Lilypichu??? Okay, you sold me.
She asked him for the power to make legends ragequit, and Lily went on to clown on Harada himself. That's legendary. Thats Zyzx level of teaching prowess.
Gonna follow this guy PhiDX. He seems fun as hell too.
Harada said "I quit tekken" in that clip after Lily beat him so mission accomplished I guess
@@xKrave13Imagine harada says "no tekken 9, thank lilypichu"
Phidx writes video essays on Tekken lol the guy is insane. Best UA-camr For anyone who loves lore or Game Logic of Tekken ecosystem..........
PhiDX tells you everything you need to know and everything you want to know about Tekken. The drills he suggests are stellar too. His passion for the game and coaching people are real, definitely the best content creator to watch for improving.
i remember Phi coaching RDC Mark to play tekken against Afro
I don't keep up with Tekken much but that's a crazy crossover. New era FGC making amazing crossovers
@@KiingKai91 fr bro. FGC underrated one of the best scene out there try to watch Tekken, SF, smashbros and MK. hype is real
Phi wanted to coach afro, but afro ignored him so he coached mark instead. Mark shit on afro after that.
Yessssss. My boi getting recognition
Phi literally got me so inspired during his coaching with Lily for the first Sajam Slam to actually commit to T8 (my first real fg experience other than casual T3/T5 button mashing)!
Here I am, so happy that I didn't buy Tekken 8 yet. Go figure.
PhiDX on a theScore esports video Crazy!
Such a creative genius, no joke!
Phi, his content, and his community have been essential to my journey and growth in Tekken. I'm really happy to see him get more credit and exposure.
Love this guy. A friend got me to buy tekken after 15 years of not playing, but Phi got me hooked. His enthusiasm and his gift of making complex things digestible helped me do better and ultimately love the game again.
I'm stoked on the transition back to fighting game content keep it up :)
You just know in that set, Arslan must have kept thinking to himself "who the hell plays Noctis? what the hell is this character?!"
being a phi fan since he beat arslan and a lily fan since her league days and seeing them collab was a fucking roller coaster
Didnt expected him to got one from this. Glad to see a streamer gets recognition
Gotta love Phi man. Might be the most likeable/helpful guy in the game
You always keep it interesting!
He made Mark and Leland of RDC good at this game too. That means he could teach ANYONE.
Calling him a low tier hero when he played noctis
and Lili lmaoooo
She's even higher on the tierlist and its crazy
Noctis was only high tier for a shirt time at the end of tekken 7
lmao, they called Jim a mid-tier in an earlier video, zero reasons to listen to them seriously
their vids on fighting game personalities are very cool and quite enjoyable, but their takes on the games themselves are utterly clueless
@@mobamouse3616 noctis was low/mid tier because the pros were wrong in their prior assesment of him
"Low tier hero"? Bruh he played Noctis in T7 and is now trying different characters out he never really played low tiers that much.
The guy is still the goat tho
I kept watching to see the low tier part and didn't see any by the end lol. The single tekken 8 footage they show was of him using drag too.
Another thing that rippled into PhiDX's huge success, was actually Ludwig's Greatest Gamer invitational.
As far as I'm aware, that event was the first time ever that Boxbox had played SF6. Boxbox was super motivated to grind and learn SF6. He got a lot of advice from Sajam and eventually got to Master.
With Tekken 8's release, Boxbox was also interested. So he once again hit up Sajam for advice. Sajam isn't really a Tekken player, so he (along with many other people) recommended Phi, who just recently put out an extremely well made beginner guide.
Boxbox and Phi eventually linked up. Boxbox also has connections to OfflineTV. And Scarra from OTV also has previously casual Tekken experience. Which led to a bunch of OTV trying out Tekken 8 around the same time Sajam Slam was starting.
Phi just kept bouncing around different streamers and passing on knowledge, and now he's here
PHIDX IS THE GOATTT HE GOT ME INTO FIGHTING GAMES i dont even like tekkon but i LOVE PHI HE THE GOATTTT BIG UPS
6:03 bro clam down 💀
Low tier?? Ahhh by the last 2 seasons of Tekken 7 Noctis was arguably top 5 ff1+2 was a god move lmao
Ive been trying to do korean backdash since t5 but it was phidx tutorial that finally taught me how to do it.
Still suck at it but at least i can do it😊
2:54 pretty much how everyone feels about 3dx
So happy to this this video, love the guy
"MOM WAKE UP! theScore made a video about PhiDX!"

The turn into gods but they also inherit the phidx combo
He deserved all the love he gets
I only watch 2 Tekken streamers. The first is Phidx and the second TMM

the nerdy style to learn t8 just works for a lot of ppl
Great player for sure
I love phi. I hate tekken but phi is legit my most loved fgc creator
He is best sensei
Genuinely a super nice guy! Happy for him. 🇵🇰
I love PhiDX, but he has never played low tiers...
Put Dimitri on more I beg

Oh yeah, Jih-Dih-Cruh?! I know that guy, he’s ok, I guess
PhiDX is great
Yow is that kermit the frog
Say RDC and Afro’s names!
crazy they didn’t mention them at all
I’m just glad Arlan lost so people could see how much of a baby he is
stankRat_ Video when????
Wow. Talking about secret Tekken master and ignoring THE Coach, THE Idol, The King!?
Cool video about Phi! Who's the "low-tier hero" mentioned in the title?
PhiDD
good job phi
Noctis was not low tier my brother in christ, neither is t8 lili or yoshi 😂
im used to calling him fidix lmao
The true Low Tier God.
DSG! DSG!
Noctis low tier? No...? Did I miss something?
There is one God, jesus is lord
Your over exaggerating this too much. I'd personally thank that blasted salami way more than this guy.
You meant Low Tier God? 🤔
Aight idk about "low tier" 💀💀💀
"low tier hero" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 No way your calling Noctis low tier
He just beat Arslan.
It was a fluke 😢
😂😂 Yeah man. Just watch this random dude on youtube and become the best player in the world.
We have very different definitions of what a pro is. You think silver rank is pro.
😂they compliment him too much, i dont get it
Noctis not a top tier...
and Yoshimitsu isn't top 5
Firstttttttttt
The only first comment that actually is first I've ever seen
At true Low Tier God
This isn't great. There is only one or maybe 🤔 it two knee
What?
🫡 congrats PhiDX!
PHIEN. PHIEN. PHIEN
