I like jdcr. An insane player, creative, respectful, and cool headed. Hes got the " if I lose, i lose and need to work harder, and if I win then I win" mindset.
This match was insane dude it was like a movie with a plot twist that has a plot twist but that plot twist was a plot twist for another sub plot in the movie. And just when you think you're safe, BOOM plot twist.
@mainmanSWE Aussy steve/feng player here. to make it to tournaments for us is expensive. we're very ocean locked. we're an island. PS. started playing some Aking aswell.
Then make a scene there yourself :P I'm from India and im very glad that we are hosting online tourneys like thrice every week. The prize pool doesn't matters if it's 100 bucks or 500bucks, its just about growing and improving the community for the global level.
As a Hwoarang main myself, Rest is the player I've been waiting for since Speedkicks dropped Hwo and MadDogJin's not going to tournaments anymore. This was deffinitely the match of the year for me (for now) and I am gonna keep an eye on this guy.
@@Atilolzz Well not completely, but yes. For the most part you'll see him playing Jin, Miguel or Devil Jin at tournaments. There are some occasions when if he is about to be eliminated from the tournament, then he switches to Hwo as a last stand-up, but it's rare and the last time it happened was at Mixup Tournament in France.
@@BocchitheGwak hell no dude. Thats just your opinion no facts behind it. Id rather watch my grandma making a toast than watching SF game play. While i give my respect to SF for what it has done for the figthing game community but tekken is just another animal especially game play wise.
The thing I really loved about it, is that JDCR stick with Armor King and he never change character. The demostration of loyalty for a character,that's what I like to see.
@Loren Magnuson well, it's good that I have my feet on the ground, and I am talking about something fictional, then. All I wrote was that JDCR stick with his favorite character, something I, personally, don't see happen very often in fighting games. I hope I make myself clear now.
@Loren Magnuson It's interesting not only how you interpreted his comment but even made your own comment on it aswell. To anyone who plays fighting games, it would be clear that he meant he's admiring how the player sticks with his character despite there being "better" choices or other characters & not some innate dedication for a fictional character.
Yes I enjoyed the shrimboo/qudans match more. But it’s refreshing to see more characters in the tournament. That’s why tekken is the best fighting game.
Going into esports as Australian is financially impossible. There’s almost no orgs and no sponsorship opportunities. Most players have to pay out of pocket to attend tournaments to only have a chance to get any money back for it. It’s too big a gamble for the majority of us.
Man, you people are dumb. Rest is the legendary Phew/HyuK. He was the only guy in the T7 vanilla days that matched up to Asellas's Hwoarang. Phew has had the best wall carries and combo improvisation for years. MDJ himself says he's never seen anyone play Hwoarang so fluidly.
So rest is from korea and recently lives in australia. According to the commentators knee said that he is the hwo with most chance of success right now, he said that before the top 16 for sure.
To anyone wondering where this was played it was played in Melbourne Australia in the the Melbourne exhibition centre. I recognise the background and was actually was a member of staff there with couch warriors they run all the fighter tourneys in Australia mainly Victoria and Queensland though
8:18 It kinda is though..... For beginners not so much but if you have experience with doing atleast double electrics its pretty darn easy and nearly feels like autopilot (especially if you button bind, i can see it being a bit tricky if you buffer).
as an Australian, Epsorts is just a difficult scene to breakout as a pro for fighting games, to participate in major tournaments, its all most 3000 dollars in flights then accomodation and meals. basically to go play at major tourneys we have to basically take a whole vacation. even in terms of Australian only tournaments, it cost a bit to travel to the different states just to play for very little prize money. for a lot of good players it just isn't worth the time and money and sacrifice to become a pro.
Hwoarang is a technical character with fairly high execution. He pressures the opponent with button mashing and his high damage, stance switching combos.
Was shrimboo v qudans Bo3 or Bo5? While I agree it was a brilliant match, I find the fact Rest put on such a show for this long of a match super impressive. Couldn’t say which match was better but food for thought. 2019 Tekken is blowing my fucking mind.
Australia plays too many sports already. So gaming takes 2nd fiddle to everything else we do. The other thing is although we are 'close to asia' it a long flight to get there. we dont populate their servers so we sort of land in a vacuum where we actually dont experience too much high level korean, japanese, chinese gamers.
Kichiro Kiozumi hes one of the best, but that’s what competitive fighting games are about, players making names for themselves, when these longtime veterans go to tournaments they don’t watch out for other veterans, they watch out for the unknown players that they never hear about because they’re the most dangerous, its the unknown players that train harder than the pros

Yeah! Like MGS story, you have no idea what's going on
@@MateuszJJ i hate that game but also liked it, not because of the gameplay, but the timeline
Now that's a lot of plot twist
More twists than a pretzel
High level Hwoarang play is just amazing to watch. The mix-up potential with all of Hwoarang's stances really shines with players like Rest.
Rest: Gets perfect on JDCR.
JDCR: (menacing) Oh...so you have chosen death.
Wow
shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up
@@cumekira70 ok?
Australians are never in big tournaments because they have to fly for two weeks to get anywhere
Jordannadroj20 their country isn’t a country it is a continent.
except if they want to visit Indonesia
Snack that isn’t true lol. Oceania is the continent.
@@snack4458
Yeah, nah.
uhh it's a single leg 18h flight to west coast usa, it's more the cost than the time investment.

@@NeoFluchs we love you too. Contrary to popular belief we play with honor and respect
6:36 Harada and Murray would have tears in their eyes on hearing this. All the hardwork and brainstorming and what not, paid off big time.
they already gave Whore-rang so much of bullshit, if you cant work with that, you should drown in your tears.
And this is why Tekken should be and is in my eyes: the king of fighting games.
One could say...
The King of Fighters?
Cant wait for that Final Fight at evo
King of fighting game is easily Street Fighter 3. Without that iconic moment Fighting games would not be as big as it is
@@BocchitheGwak as much as i love Tekken over street fighter, you're right.

16:04 made me scream, all those darn feints LOL
2:25 almost positive JDCR went for the wall jump move but didn't have the angle just right for it, curved stages will do that.
Yes I enjoyed the shrimboo/qudans match more. But it’s refreshing to see more characters in the tournament. That’s why tekken is the best fighting game.
Rest you have a fan in me as a HWO main. I hope you continue to be great

I totally agree with you, Shrimboo Vs Qudans was better for me
it was pretty linear, i didnt find it to be very best match worthy, it was just hype because qudans lost.
@@yoyoprofessorxavier pretty sure it was hype cos of TWO pewgf
Commentary is great; rip makes it even more exciting
I don't even react when I see a huntsman Spider.
2:14 A very technical combo! Excellent match!
I prefer 5:47
@@GrogedUp the damage was insane!
Rest is Korean , thet said he moved to Australia just recently
Yup
Man, you people are dumb. Rest is the legendary Phew/HyuK. He was the only guy in the T7 vanilla days that matched up to Asellas's Hwoarang.
Phew has had the best wall carries and combo improvisation for years. MDJ himself says he's never seen anyone play Hwoarang so fluidly.
@@BenTan89 There is a bot in the offline treasure mode higher ranks that uses Hwoarang and has his name ("Phew")
Ok so it's korea vs korea lol
wow that last match sooooooo impressive from the floor break moment followed by wall combo 4 1 df1 shoulder!!!!!
So rest is from korea and recently lives in australia. According to the commentators knee said that he is the hwo with most chance of success right now, he said that before the top 16 for sure.
To anyone wondering where this was played it was played in Melbourne Australia in the the Melbourne exhibition centre. I recognise the background and was actually was a member of staff there with couch warriors they run all the fighter tourneys in Australia mainly Victoria and Queensland though
Damn this kind of matches makes me wonder if I could ever be this level on Tekken
This was at Battle Arena Melbourne 11 (Melbourne, VIC, Australia in 2019)
I was in the crowd for this!
Rest:I'm about to end this mans career
JDCR:Download Complete
0-6
@@TheMidian46 down two sets still won what a beast JDCR is props to rest too he's a sick hwoarang player
don't be too mad

For beginners not so much but if you have experience with doing atleast double electrics its pretty darn easy and nearly feels like autopilot (especially if you button bind, i can see it being a bit tricky if you buffer).
Rest is aussie the same way Tissuemon is Italian. Asian fighting game genetic is powerful
Stop talking shit about my totally legit paesano :P
Well yea they both mostly immigrant. Dunno if they permanently resides there tho
Okay
Rest just gave himself the Rest with picking that stage against JDCR's AK. Rest in Peace..
16:41 😂😂😂😂 that voice though
Living in australia but is korean national.
we deal with those spiders by stepping on them. maybe a broom if we feel dangerous
7:45 I'm a green rank hwo and spams d4, 4. RIP
This hwoarang player is so inspiring. Hope to see more from him and others like superhwoarang or asellas
Rest is Korean, he just lives in Australia. As Aris put it “he’s as much Australian as Tissumon is Italian”
I don't think you get how nationality works... It's not the same as ethnicity
Edit; unless he isnt an Aussie citizen
Cory Goodman I’m pretty sure (at the time) Rest wasn’t an Australian National, he was just living in Australia.
16:52 mom thought I was watching porn
Honestly.. At 1:10 i would not talk about Australian representation in tourneys.. But the full block of the RA!!
6:18 RFS df 4 doesnt wall splat right?? but f 4 does
Man, they fight like their life depend on it. Epic!!!
Dang this guy got a perfect against JDCR why have I not seen more of this guy

I was about to say the same, Shrimpoo vs Qudans gotta be the MOY so far
Rest is not Australian lol he's Korean he's only been in Australia for about 2 months now
Knee vs JDCR was the match of the decade !REV MAJOR 2017 ♥
When you're not Tekken Championship ,but you like yelling about how these professional player playing .lol
Hwoarang is a technical character with fairly high execution. He pressures the opponent with button mashing and his high damage, stance switching combos.
Yeah, this match should be a grand final, totally agree with a title :P
TMM gotta learn his lore. I believe they said he moved to Australia but was originally in korea. Which is why he uses Hwoarang.
An 'aussie' taking rounds off jcdr?
Well yes but actually no.
Coming back to this match I don’t think Rest should have stayed on this stage.
"In tekken and reality" hahaha.
Was shrimboo v qudans Bo3 or Bo5? While I agree it was a brilliant match, I find the fact Rest put on such a show for this long of a match super impressive. Couldn’t say which match was better but food for thought. 2019 Tekken is blowing my fucking mind.
this match was crazy i bet speedkicks is crying
No doubt dear speed kick is also the good player of haworang
pretty sure rest is korean
He came from Korea but lives in Australia now
@Hidan he was born in skorea bu went to australia to study
TMM atleast they didn't yell, "Double Laugi!" It was an awesome match though.
nigga really got mad at the commentators for getting hype💀💀
I guess Rest didnt want a no wall stage to come up on random select
Reasoning for us Aussie’s not going into esports much:
WE R TOO HUMBLE WE DOWNPLAY OURSELVES
Us Lot in Australia cant make it to big tournaments cause most of us work full time while playing tekken and days off are pretty rare
I wish there were more floor break stages. I also kinda hope to see lil majin as king vs JDCR as AK at EVO
Drag would be better.
As I look at this fight even speed kicks would lose to his own nerves
RIP tier lists, pretty soon Lars mains will rise up 😂
Awww hell no! 😆
What does "what's for breakfast" mean? And what is it origin?
Agreed qudans vs shrimboo is much more hype, hell no this is match of the year it is a good set tho, but definitely not match of the year material
Nobody
TMM: dis is why yu dont pieck this stage?!?!
Lmao I love your imitations of the commentators
Most of us aussies keep our huntsman spiders as pets, they aren't that bad man hahaha
But I main hwo and law and rest plays like me at a higher higher level so I’m happy to see someone like him
I think it's a little early to have a match of the year award
Its the white tails you have to look out for
I still think Arslan Vs Jimmy is match of the year (so far).
Rest is korean living in Australia
Someone said rest is phew (search for him)
oh REST also korean
so when harada will give hworang a proper balanced buff
dude u gotta space out the uploads or people dont get the notifications
Rest is simply unbelievable. What the actual f
So is Rest Korean or Australian?
i love that jdcr stick to AK...i bet he was bored by playing dragu himself
it is really a good time to be a tekken fan
THEN LEEROY HAPPENED
Is it just me or does it seem like REST is really really good at poking 😂😂
Rest is phew a well known Hwoarang player
also known as hyu~
Epic match, but I was more hyped with Shampoo v Qudans :p
Trygator Shampoo fr fr
14:48 LOL
It was a good match. Don't get me wrong but... Majin vs JDCR was just so much better.

The other thing is although we are 'close to asia' it a long flight to get there. we dont populate their servers so we sort of land in a vacuum where we actually dont experience too much high level korean, japanese, chinese gamers.
Jdcr was able to match hwoarang's dmg because of the floorbreaks maybe that's why he picked it ? He wants some goodass tekken
it was rest who picked the stage since he lost to the first forgotten real match. rest should’ve switch stages
Pride comes before the fall.
15:18
Because our nets too shit too vs good players consistently, search funnel web spider and brown snake I've had too many in counters with both
If all korean tekken players move to different countries they could be the best in their country, also top 16 would be more interesting kappa
12:21 lmao
Rest threw the set away by picking a floor break stage against Armor King. Wtf why? I know he is good on this stage too but still.
awais vs lowhigh is the match of the year for 2019. maybe ever but thats just me
I don't even watch Tekken and I love these tournament,Im not that big in fighting game most ever played is mk11
Is jdcr best player or something?
Kichiro Kiozumi hes one of the best, but that’s what competitive fighting games are about, players making names for themselves, when these longtime veterans go to tournaments they don’t watch out for other veterans, they watch out for the unknown players that they never hear about because they’re the most dangerous, its the unknown players that train harder than the pros

Kichiro Kiozumi But Lil Majin is by far my favorite to watch. So much hype lol
Agree on poking vs launching
The Kings' best move is ws 4

As much Aussie as Binchang is Canadian
