As a Tekken beginner I agree. In comparison to other fighting games, it feels like I am moving up too fast for my own good. There is so much that I feel like I need to learn before moving up the ranks but I keep going up anyways. I'm afraid that it will suddenly get drastically hard and I am gonna be stuck trying to learn it all at the same time in order to advance instead of a slow and steady progression. Which is why I keep going back to training mode every 2-3 matches
Yeah they used to have a bronze rank called kyu it used to be after beginner. Right after beginner you become 9th kyu and it ranges all the way down to 1st kyu. After that THEN you became 1st dan. I feel like that is what messed it up the most.
Yea. This is my first tekken. I was orange in a week and now I don't want to play ranked anymore until I learn at least 1 more character. Just not sure who yet
No point loss before yellow is fucking wild ngl
Yeah bro all of this is causing rank inflation😪
As someone who started T8 a week ago and is new to fighting games, i gotta agree. Im at Warrior and i cant tell how much i actually improved since the beginning, Warrior is basically Beginner 2.0 to me
@guymontag5084You can derank in yellow but it is definitely beginner 2.0.
Man I remember being stuck in light blue as a t7 beginner, and the grind to break through to Green and Yellow felt huge. In 8 it feels like I could easily take on red rank and even purple. Blue ranks look like they could be anyone who cheesed his way to the top to literally tournament pros taking it easy in ranked lol.
Bro i still have my 1st tk7 vids of me in vanguard. As i watch it, it looks like modern day yellow/ orange lol
@@raofficialgamingyeah tbh doing both 3 ranks per tier and no demotions until yellow really shot everyone's general rank up. I feel like doing just either one would have been enough
@@tugsuumovies1999 tbh there really was nothing wrong with the s1 tk7 rank system. Having the kyu ranks seperated the beginners from the average players.
I have been saying this since day 1
Reaching red rank was a dream for me in T7
In T8 I got to red in 2 days 😂
The OG rank system introduced in T5 and killed off in Tekken 7 Season 2 was an invisible ELO calculator that essentially required you to win x no. of matches against a player of the same skill to gain points towards a promotion , a loss would equal -1 a win would be +1 so if your win rate was 50% you'd be stuck in that rank until you got consistently better than the people in that particular rank, you had to have a win rate of around 60% and then after Orange ranks a win rate of 70% (the last 10 games record in T7 was actually there to help players keep track of their ELO). in Season 2 they changed it to be a straightforward points system which displayed how close you were to ranking up HOWEVER they changed the balance of wins and loses meaning if your win rate was 50% You'd always rank up which is why ultimately EVERYONE could reach Red ranks and beyond and invalidated the skill set each colour grouping would denote. in T8 ranking up is VERY EASY almost trivial because it only takes 3/4 wins to rank up for most brackets and the cost of losing is very minimal vs the cost of winning.
Since T5-T7:S1 the rank journey would break down like this;
Green rank ; you understand your character and can apply offense with frametraps but don't know match ups , can break throws sometimes .
Yellow Rank ; you've mastered all of your characters moves and can apply offence and you have a grasp of what good defence is i.e low parry junkyard on reaction, can break throws most of the time and you've built a foundation for certain match ups i.e Sidestep left on mishimas , be aware of steve's counter hits, duck and punish certain strings be patient against Xiaoyu and Eddy.
Orange Rank; everything from yellow rank but now its about learning about your opponents tendencies and adapting using match up dependant knowledge. at these ranks you'll notice that you lost because your opponent counterplayed your strategy or you could adapt in time to your opponents tendencies intime to win the game. can break throws consistently if your opponent telegraphs it.
Red rank; you've mastered your character and you know every match up, this is when "real Tekken" begins where its player vs player and less about cheesy gimmicks or knowledge checks . At this point you should be able to react to throws and both you and your opponent are fully aware of each others strengths and weaknesses. both punishment and combo damage is optimised to a level were every action matters cause it could possibly cost you 40%-50% on a simple whiff. In the arcade days players who were Red rank and above would usually be the guys who could hold their own in a local tournament or go the distance in a deathmatch. being in Red rank meant you was in the top 10% players for most characters
All of the ranks above Red essentially build off Your own skills as player with Blue ranks being where you'd be recognised as a character specialist and would be placed very highly on the leaderboard. bare in mind that in T7 Season 1 there was less than a 1000 Tekken God primes meaning for 80% of the cast being a TGP would make you the top 10 out 10,000 ranked player for that character.
by the middle of season 2 till the end of season 3 the system was so lax that essentially anyone could reach any rank if they played enough removing the potential to get soft locked into a rank (too strong for the rank below , to weak for the new rank just achieved) which is why vanquisher became the new warrior by the end of T7s life span and today Garyu is the new Warrior in T8
There are a few Deflationary factors they Implemented to offset the Free Ranks to Warrior and Free Promo chances after Demotion.
For Example, every player you run into with a Higher Rank,will cost you the same amount of points as if you lost to someone of the Same Rank.
For example if you are a Garyu who loses to a Tekken King (11 Rank difference) you will still lose 400pts. While they are only gaining +125 pts. A Garyu has like a 90% chance of losing to a Tekken King.
Beating players of lower Ranks will also yield you less points, so in order to Rank Up, you need to consistantly Defeat players of Higher Ranks. This wasn't the case in Tekken 7 So a Garyu beating a Destroyer will only net you 200pts. While losing to a Tekken King costs you 400pts
Lots of Tekken players are actually complaining that the New System is too HARD to Rank Up because of these adjusted Point Distributions
Will this be enough to offset the Inflationary Forces such as the Free Ranks up to Warrior, and Free Promotion Chances after receiving a Demotion?
Only Time will Tell.
The only thing I can say is if Ranks in Tekken 8 really as Free as you say, you and every other player Casual up to Expert players should all be able to get Max Ranks with no Sweat. If not, then the System is Clearly Working as Intended
My suspicion is that heat, and the tornado combo animation has made it easier for people to conceptually understand offense and what you “need” to do. Couple this with fewer ranks you have fewer matches where your defense is truly tested.
End of the day rank doesn’t really matter in time ranked is gonna feel like it did in t7 (de rank system is way better now too) once people get knowledge checked enough
dawg i feel the same way with alot of this man. u hit points that i didnt talk about but u hit it all bro.
They probably updated the ranks to have a more “normalized curve” with rank distribution. A top 10% players is still a top 10% player. I look at percentiles over the rank itself.
Additional ranks were added in previous Tekkens and will likely be added in this game as well.
rank inflation is so real in this game. while playing in red ranks now u have a mix of playing against a guy who just spammed 3 strings to get ganryu, and playing against a strong player using different characters
i remember having a hard time getting out of green ranks in t7, struggling in orange versus people who have a pretty good understanding of the game, now the game doesn't feel competitive for me, mostly because of no infinite rematches
It really doesnt feel much like an accomplishment to me to make dark blue now😪 i already made it twice
Were you playing with your main?
I've experienced this too, and I'm wondering if it's because the game is still "new". Theoretically any good players that are just picking up the game have to blast through ranks. There's also a lot of noobs (myself included) so spammers are getting good mileage because most casual people won't care to learn how to deal with it. I'm expecting things to iron out after a while and we seem more legitimate ranking
@@kylespevak6781yeah i think things will level out eventually, i wonder if eventually players will fall down the ranks hard. I got into 7 last year and it took the year to get to red rank with lidia and a little dragonuv, i got to red rank in 8 with bryan in like a day, and i played him like twice my life before and i dont have his combos memorized
as someone that comes from the objectively brutally honest rank system of tag 2, the skill equivalence of a green rank in tag 2 is vastly stronger than a green rank in tk7 and even more in tk8
Yeah honestly tk8 rank rn feels waaaay too feathered down
I was there. Tag 2 was hell.
@@chrishipop5 i never had the chance to play tag 2 online because my uncle gave me his ps3 when he got a ps4 and never gave me the cd code for playing online😪 i wish i did
you are speaking facts! t6 and tag2 was hell. you needed 70% win rate to get anywhere meaningful
@@natecartwright2319 and they talk about throws? throws in Tag2 and the lag against double Law? pure evil
I stopped playing ranked in red ranks on Tekken 7 because i'm an in and out player that played ranked very rarely. (never got demoted in red or reached a point where i got stuck) I think i could of been high blue ranks had a grinded it out. But unfortunately i am lazy and i get bored quickly. This getting beat and beat until i get better i fortunately didn't have to go through.
I am just starting out on Tekken 8, faced a Destroyer rank (which is the same rank i was when i beat LTG lol) yesterday and it felt like fighting a Season 4 green rank in Tekken 7. I couldn't believe how easy he was to beat, Orange are usually a mild challenge throwing out crazy punishable but rewarding moves.
As someone who took T7 seriously, Miguel was my main. I never touched Devil Jin Once. when I hit Warrior I remember feeling just straight “YES!” Not even believing I could make it to red.
I took Miguel to purple in 4 years, and I have my T8 Devil Jin at Tenryu… something just feels off man. 😂
P.S #WhereMiguelAt
With current T8 rank distribution, Garyu is top 33% which is about the same as Overlord, last orange rank (top 31%) in S2 T7.
Sounds about right. I can tell by the way most of em play
@@raofficialgaming I played ranked way back T5, when it was first introduced. Just to get through green ranks, you had to have fundamentals. Yellow was competitive and brown was serious. The big issue is the reduction in the number of ranks. There used to be an additional 5 ranks to get through to reach cyan blue ranks. My hope is that they will add new ranks as they have done in the past.
Its a casual joke. We have 8 or 9 dead ranks, (thank god, you have mentioned it. you cannot lose points until warrior, almost no one knows this, like 80% of players do not know this, because the game does not advertise this … of course not) . you get a free bonus point handout every time you rank up, but no penalty for ranking down. People can still plug without getting any penanlty (they have to lose at least 2 times the points) . Its a joke. Every fighting game should use a system OR THE exact system like street fighter does once you reach master rank, a true elo based ranked system, where you start at a baseline and you can go up and down. So you have in essence, negative ranks. A linear rank system is so… archaic and problematic in general. Thats my summary
My legacy skill, allowed me to get to Emperor with Heihachi, in 3-4 months in T7 I've never really labbed anything. It was already the last season when I started to play. Then I ran out of PS Plus, can't wait to see where T8 takes me.
Games evolve. Tekken 8 is the most mainstream Tekken game via ads and mainstream plugs like the NBA and UFC advertising. The special button system and modern controls implemented to make the game more appealing and friendly for newer people to pick up the game. We can see that has been sucessful, people who never played tekken or were too scared to try the game are now buying it. But you saying you are "not discourage anyones rank" or "it's too easy" is just another way of saying, "You only got to your rank because the game is too easy". Rank isn't the word of god and doesn't mean like rank tells everything. But you are not getting to blue ranks by playing "easy" people. Also, if people are getting beat by the special menu, thats their fault. But you're coming off as you have distain for people who is at a higher rank than you cause the game is too "easy".
Preach. Everything is watered down so much its neearly not worth playing for veterans that know and respect what it means to actually earn something.
"a lot simpler"
Ah yes, dominator and eliminator. Very easy to understand
Simplifying the ranks, removal of infinite rematches.
I am now Fujin after couple of weeks of game's release, this is nothing compared to the long journey i had with T7.
I look with pride to my struggles through T7's ranking matches, reaching Genbu was a cause for celebration, took me months, alot of defeats, alot of knowledge checks, long sessions of death matches, repeated demotions to get there, all the way to Tekken God rank eventually.
Full of grief, stress, hate messages, rivalries, overcoming obstacles, getting better.. etc
What we have now in T8 is fun and all, but it isn't what i was expecting, after reaching Fujin that fast i think i will be done with the game soon.
No motivation to play more.
That's not how i thought at all when i played T7.
The complex ranking system in T7 motivated me to stick around, climbing from a certain to another took months, you had a sense of achievement and you craved for more.
Simplifying ranks and removal of infinite rematches was the worst idea implemented in T8 and the developers will feel that sooner or later when large number of players drop the game quickly after reaching certain mid ranks that make them feel fulfilled.
People rank faster because there are fewer ranks. I don't know about this elitism now because yeah it's slightly easier to rank in Tekken 8 compared to 7, but no word will fool me. This game is mind-numbing hard and for someone who plays totally casually, Orange ranks are a wall. Plus, what's the problem if you can easily get demoted like the last time? I'm close to being Fujin, but it wasn't easy by any means. I watched the video, but I still don't understand why bother with a system that is pretty fair in my opinion. People that deserve their rank sit in them because Plateu'ing is still very much a thing. Most of my friends that consider themselves good are stuck in Garyu, and it's stuck like a clogged toilet. Red ranks special control players are not going higher in most cases because you are at a disadvantege while using it against someone who actually know how to play. My last thought is that no matter if with cheese or with skill, if you are going higher you deserve it. People either can't handle you or your cheese and when that happens then it's on people that they can't get past cheesy moves/tactics.
My highest rank in t7 was tekken god with lars before i just gave up plus i started t7 late. In this game im already at kinshin with lars and its only been a month. This game is easier to rank up in because there are more casuals and you can pretty much cheese your way to purple/blue ranks
Every time you say “um” and “like” try to pause instead. Then finish your thought, good video however👍🏾
Will do thanks for the advice appreciate it🙌
Kyu (pronounced Q) were always a one time beginner rank. You played those once on your first playing and you could not lose rank. When you got to 1st Dan, you could start to lose points. Brawler was basically like Garyu and Warrior was Mighty Ruler. Now with all the casuals and the reduce ranks, the ranking system is watered down from what it was. Tekken has been moving in this direction for a while.
They should have kept the kyu ranks honestly. There would have been a lot more seperation
I like this. You should make more videos like this with you talking about tekken
Thanks appreciate it🙌
Warrior had decent players. It was until savior I noticed a clear difference in difficulty spike between that and a Red. And I noticed there was something just a bit different between eternal ruler and red. I think it was good to actually say those guys were good. That was me at the time as a Master Raven main. I had trouble with Kuni, Noctis and Negan. My gripe with Tekken 8 is there's so many people playing to win it's almost pathetic. And I dislike one and done players and rage quitters equally. It fuckin sucksss
couple of points here and I agree 100% with you the ranking system has changed for the worse but here is why:
1. removal of deathmatches mean more people in the matchmaking pool. this is especially a good thing at higher ranks when in tekken 7 super high ranked people would wait 20+mins to find a match. if you only do a best out of 3, more people can matchmake with you.
2. reducing number or ranks in each color means that there will be more player clustered together. this is simply for matchmaking reasons. instead of a pool of lets say 15% of the player base at red rank in t7 now you can potentially matchmake with 30% of players. This can also help with matchup variety when in T7 you never saw a lei or a ganryu. It was always popular chars like paul, kaz, and bryan
3. getting a promo right after a demo is so that grinding within the rank stays hard but creating a floor for you to fall back on means you arent punished for a string of losses. this also helps to clump players together and encourage rematches right after a demo. usually in t7 if you got demoted you would just get off because it is a huge motivation and session killer.
not saying I agree with these points but clearly namco designed this game to be more inclusive, less punishing, and more casual than the hardcore tekkens of the past. We will still see skilled players in tournaments winning. rank wont matter in this game but a huge indicator of skill will be win percentage instead and also games played. a tekken king with 1000 wins and a tekken king with 500wins are 2 different players entirely. 1 had to grind to learn the skill and another already had a huge amount of skill from before. This is how you can be proud of your rank by looking at how long it took relative to others. sorry for the long read but I like to be analytical
Depends on region you play imo. If you are in Asia, I think it gets competitive around Orange Ranks. Since most people haven't yet climbed up. And almost say 33% of your matches would be with someone who is a high level player in T7.
Almost everyone knows half life combos, are good at throwbreaks, sidestep, punishes etc. And they adapt like crazy.
Yea I agree with you on multiple points; your general key arguments are things that I feel the same way about. Ranks don't really showcase to you who is actually a good player and who is just a beginner anymore so you gotta just fight them. I think the last part of that sentence however is actually pretty cool to me as it introduces a different element into Ranked Matches and that is the ideology of figuring out with what kind of player you are dealing with in the first moments of a match. But outside that? Its a total mess. Doesn't help that there are also the Pluggers, One and Dones and just overall Winquitters when they win the rematch against you. So even then the Ranking systems aren't accurate from a gameplay standpoint. The experience while experimental is something I'm torn between. On one hand I like it, on the other I dislike it.
Yeah i kept pluggers out because i would need a whole seperate vid and im prob gonna start flaming bamco for it too because they had 6yrs of tk7 to fix that ish and never did.
I came from tekken 7 as my first tekken game. All because of akuma. I played it for 2 years off and on and finished it as ryujin. Now, im picking up reina, and its a slight struggle. Just got into red ranks after 2 weeks
Understandable since you are using a new character and not your main.
@raofficialgaming Yeah it sucked a bit. I almost didn't get tekken 8 and then I saw reina, and I was sold. Mishima playstyle is very different to what I'm used to but I'm playing with much higher ranked friends of mine that are always teaching me something and vice versa. Ironically, I know most people hate akuma in t7 but he actually made me some really good friends. Literally met a Mighty ruler when I was in green and he tutored me until I hit his rank. Then, met a TGO Eliza at early red ranks that schooled me some. Great people in ranked sometimes lol
It doesn't matter the promotion/demotion thing, either way you'll be stuck if you can't be consistent. I'm new to tekken but had my share of other fighting games, and I dunno...does any of these things that you say really matter? Like, the whole point of ranks is to provide balanced matches, and that's it. Feels like 20 minutes of whining because they change the color of where you think you should be, and a good deal of elitism.
I respect your opinion. This is just my opinon on how i feel about the rank system in general. I played the entire lifespan of tekken 7 ranked and this does not feel as "challenging" as it did in tekken 7. And encountering challenges helps build enjoyment for the game. Thats just me ik a lot of people prob dont want to encounter challenges.
And I appreciate the polite conversation as well =) Just one thing that im not getting...the challenge is still there, I dont understand why you think otherwise. Probably you'll be sitting in a higher rank compared to T7 since the measuring is different now, but you can still grind and keep pushing further. Like, if this was a racing game, would it matter if you're measuring speed per kilometers or miles? In the end all you want is to have better times. Similarly, if your rank was red, but now it will be purple, you'll still have people with similar skill and your consistency is what will say if you'll rise or fall on the ranks. Anyway, keep it up bro 😉
You only have that view point because you are new and don't remember things the way they were before. People are seeing ranks they worked hard being given away free. It makes the whole system lose validity. It becomes hard to track your progress over the course of games because the measurement has changed. I made it to purple rank easy now when before i could barely get into red. How much of that is because I'm actually getting better as a player? I will never know. The ranking system needs to stay consistent to be a reliable measurement of a players skill.
@@tek87ok, this makes sense 👍🏻
Nice video, i kinda agree with everything you said ✅
Thank you so much.
I think somewhere down the line they’re gonna do a rank reset like they did in T7.. I had just made it to Raijin when in it happened and it bumped back down to Seiryu, but then I ended up hitting the Ryujin wall and thats kinda where I stayed because I stopped playing consistently. Deff probably coulda hit Tekken King in T7 and I know for fact I can hit God in 8. I’m already at Fujin at just a month into the games life span. But this also gives me incentive to play other characters too.
It makes rank seem unimportant this time around, like I can't be arsed to grind in it
Rank inflation is not a thing. It’s a completely new game with new systems, including a new ranking system. Don’t compare it to T7.
“Back in T7 season 1, when you made warrior you were considered a good player. Equivalent of T8 Fujin”.
Who fucking cares. It’s a new game. Now you’re considered a good player if you’re Fujin. It’s not a big deal stop whining.
I respect everyone's opinion but No one is crying lol i am just stating my opinion
Rank inflation is not a thing? Then how come warrior ranks dont lose rank pts? Completely different game than tk7? Funny you say that i been playing tk8 like i did with 7 and now i have 2 characters in dark blue rank.......... people who play with fundamentals were seen in earlier red ranks. The red ranks now only mash mindlessly.....i literally passed red ranks 5x already.....
It's not a new system. It's a watered down version of the old system. Most of the ranks are the same. They just reduced the skill required to achieve them, making the system worthless as a means of gauging a players progress from game to game. They should have kept it the same.
@@tek87 My point is it's a new game. Stop trying to look at it through the lens of Tekken 7. Stop comparing what a blue was in 7 to what a blue is in 8. Players will be ranked where they're ranked and new norms will develop when considering where good players are and where shit players are. They just need to fix the plugging issue. That's the only thing causing rank inflation. Inflation doesn't exist because of your preconceived notions of ranks based off of tekken 7.
I see why people like offline tournaments
Yeah honestly i wanna go to a local this year that is the only way i feel i will truly get better. I wanna learn how people play.
@@raofficialgaming if you're ever in Pennsylvania, you can swing by ours
if someone wants to improve that should be part of their routine. playing in locals or even big online tournaments
I totally agree ❤
Thank you so much
Who actually cares about their rank unless you go and play tournaments? Think they should add in a tournament playlist that allows players to pick and ban characters to avoid people using cheese heavy characters. Just like how you have regular ranked in some games and you have a competitive ranked mode. T8 needs a competitive ranked mode not just a ranked mode
I don't take the game seriously. Ir really feels like Namco doesn't want us to, anyway. I think they're trying to make climbing easier for newer players. In T7 I think what maybe held me back was that I'd rematch people like 5+ times even if they were destroying me just because I felt like I was learning matchup knowledge and I didn't care about losing. Now that we can't do that, I climbed quick af.
But what frustrates me is all the pluggers. It's the worst it's ever been for me. Probably every 5 games. And I rarely ever get a rematch unless I lose.
Now see i left the pluggers out of this because thats a whole seperate issue and if i started talking about pluggers i prob wont stop being disrespectful towards bamco considering how 6 yrs inna row with tk7 they failed to do anything lol
It's probably game crashing unless they were afk or rage arting before dc.
im stuck in shinryu i keep getting put against might rulers idk it feels weird
Yeah if they had 4 ranks each tier you would play against a tk7 suzaku instead since suzaku is 2 above shinryu which is the new "byakko"
I hope they reset and add more upper mid ranks. And bring TGP/TGO back on top of god of destruction.
I see flocks of people returning to tekken 7 to feel like there is some challenge .
A few months ago when i was still playing tk7 i actually almost made Ryujin and i almost felt accomplished because at the time very good players still were in those ranks. Idt its gonna be much of a challenge in tk7 rn unless all the good players go back. All the good players play 8 only because theres more people to play. If tk7 had the good players back and if enough people were online i would no doubt go back.
@cialgaming As a Hei player im meeting alot of really good technical hei players in tekken god , I feel like the more traditionalist Mishima fanbase are still going to play it, and a flock of people might be returning to the clean version after they lose interest in this mash MCU animation flash version of tekken .
You sound like a hater with way too much time on your hands expecting the casuals to spend tons of hours grinding Tekken unnecessarily. They made it easier bc it's more acceptable
I am not hating as i said throughout the video i dont discourage anyone and understand everyone's opinion. This is just my general opinon. And they had a good system for casuals in tk7 s1. The kyu ranks were the ranks for the beginners.
It's not about expecting casuals to do anything. Its about having a system that accurately and consistently shows your level of skill. What's acceptable is playing people on your level, having fun and learning the game. This would be the case even if you go back to the old system. You would just have lower ranks for lesser skilled players.
@@raofficialgaming ppl get discouraged grinding tek7 to not even make the color ranks...that's how you lose a lot of the community and only the elites stick around
@@kylethomas8655 i can understand that part a lot of people have not played tekken as long as we have, but the casuals or somewhat good players would usually be around the blues to green and some yellow.
Meanwhile I'm stuck at Garyu with Bryan. I cannot for the life of me get to Shinryu 😂
My bryan is at flame ruler almost battle ruler. Just play with fundamentals: spacing, patience, punish, and sidewalking.
I actually just streamed with bryan. Watch how i play with him:
ua-cam.com/users/shorts7mR-Qftc6dc?si=WoPmhMAwk3CBcVQR
Here is a full match that i recorded when i got flame ruler:
ua-cam.com/video/XRrZFud-53U/v-deo.htmlsi=5ynUNyh6rF9YrtOZ
I use alot of the leg sweep to build into combo as well as the jumping over kick idk what it's called lol but I've been battling in Garyu. Any combo tips?
@@spaceghost9440 hatchet kick is good but dont use it too much only at times because it is punishable on block. The jump kick is called orbital it is good to use as well but again also something you dont wanna use too often as well. Always change things up on offense if you are on offense. I usually go with d4 as a low poke, qcb 2,4 (pretty good on block but can get ducked so be careful), df2,3 or 3+4 for range checking, 1,2,3 or 1,2,1 for simple pokes, hatchet kick sometimes, a good wiff punisher with range is f4,2 but if blocked it gets punished badly.
Bryan mainly is a beast on defense with many punish tools. So your main focus is to play defense. Play with patience and look for the punishes.
@@raofficialgaming super helpful thanks man, gonna get back in the lab
I agree with you bro. I made it to purple ranks at T8 without learning my character. I just spammed Reina's 1,1,2. I feel like I shouldnt be a fujin with my current skills.
and just think you are in the top 4% roughly. T8 is a joke
Btw revered is pronounced re VEARED 😅
Yeah i said reveared later on lol
People hate lag most of all pluggers are getting banned soon
I kept pluggers out of it mainly because i would talk about that as a whole diff topic considering that also existed in tk7 as well.
18:04 there are people using modern controls in SF in the master rank and legend. Cant agree on that.
I respect your opinion regardless 😊
And pros that use it in tournaments too
@@THATCRZYKING yes indeed.
i have yet to study and see a review for each character but since knowledge checking is always a thing in fighting games i could see some pros or a high level competitor using, even for mental damage/mind games since it can be enabled/disabled...@@THATCRZYKING
I’m so sick of ppl crying bout t8 and the rank system and how t7 was better bro just go play t7
No one is crying about anything. I am just expressing my opinon about tk8 ranked after 1 month playing it.....
No one is playing T7 anymore.
3 is fine....it's low mid and advanced for each color....4 is unnecessary
I thunk that's his point its too simple. Classifying it into those 3 means you are generalizing entire skillets. As an example, you can do combos, but you have no spacing, probably yellow ranks. You can do combos and bait? Prob orange, you can punish, combo, bait and space? Red.
And there are varying degrees of each of these skillets. Having more minor changes is a more distinguishing milestone for a player to understand their place in my eyes. But also, the points necessary should be slightly decreased.
It should be four. Garyus should not be facing Mighty Rulers. When i got to Mighty Ruler for the first time, i got destroyed by a Fujin in the very next match. That should not happen. These color classes exist for a reason. You should be facing mainly people within that class.
@@tek87 the way the search works...it's rank and availability...if 4, and your a ganryu you'd probably still meet a mighty ruler is that's best available. You're suggesting adding layers for reasons that isn't that great. Unless it's adding 4 but making ranking up easier
i dont understand what the point is from not making people lose points up until Yellow ranks ... This literally makes Warrior the same as Unranked and everything before it is just pointless fluff.
EXACTLY!!!!! thats why i said they should have kept the kyu ranks. The kyu ranks were basically the bronze rank and it was all beginner level people.
Yep exactly this! or just do what most competitive games do and have placement matches. If you win 8 out of your 10 placement matches you get your starting rank. from there its a grind. every rank should matter so that skill level is similar. the way it is now noobs are going to get destroyed and hit a wall they will likely never pass only to think "well its just the next rank i should be able to progress"
It actually hurts the new players by creating too large a pool of players with vary levels of skill. You want to separate new players more than the experienced ones to make sure they are playing people on their level. I feel like they just wanted to give everyone a nice looking rank insignia that ultimately means nothing.
If its so easy why arent u tekken god or whatever the highest rank is why u stuck on blue ranks ? Garyu rank is top 40sh%, purple ranks top 15% blue ranks top 8sh% whats the problem u makin it sound like beginners are in fujin
You didnt understand the whole point of the video. Tekken 8 ranked is easier than tekken 7 ranked. I made kishin with law, fujin with paul, flame ruler with feng and bryan, and MR with leroy in 1 month of tekken 8, whereas after a whole 4 season of tekken 7 i made yaksa almost ryujin. And the way people play in the reds is only slightly better than beginner. I got passed red 5x already effortlessly. People play way to unsafe and too aggresive. Oh and im only like 4 ranks away from tekken god i prob could get to tekken god before s1 ends at the rate im going
@@raofficialgaming so its easier but u havent reached a higher rank than in t7? You said in the vedeo youve ben playin tekken for years good job passin red rank 5 times wich is top 40% of the player base
@@mikemike4169 i reached the rank i did in tekken 7 technically beause yaksa is the 3rd rank in dark blue and kishin is the 3rd rank in dark blue. I only needed 1 month🤷♂️
@@raofficialgaming ur missing the point ur basically crying that other people can learn faster than you. Your sayen it took you months to get from this rank to that rank so it should take others same time. Have you ever thought of the idea some people learn fast? This my first fighting game and im tenryu already wich is top 20% sh. Dont be a hater man
Rank isnt a grind fest so youve made it to whatver rank youve made it too becsuse thats your skill what does making it ther ina month have to do with rank? Thats your skill so obv yuill fly past the other ranks its commen sense man
Being able to come back after the initial demotion makes sense. I don't generally warm up, so you're able to mess up once. I've been beating the same people in the rematch right after. I feel like people are taking Tekken more seriously. Maybe because it's new, but this stuff feels like a tournament set every match since I got to warrior and now Garyu.
When someone sees they can demote you it's like they act like their life is on the line, and they spam all their best moves to knock you back down a rank.
For warming up i go to practice mode for like 10-15 mins or quick match for 10-15 mins. Whenever you see someone trying their best to demote you or take away your promo do not feel pressured or nervous slow the game down. If we are talking about red ranks ik exactly what you are talking about. I actually saw a growing pattern of people mashing too much. Play more patiently and wait for the punish, space or side walk whenever you can and study your opponent's actions. Trust me.... i got passed red 5x already and purple 2x already
