@@hiromitsukanzuki9137 yeaaa i dont think so geese is fine he is stil top tier but tbh geese has a better non meter game than akuma but give akuma meter and that is another story
@@abdulrehmanhanif3470 I mean Geese's whole thing is flashy combos and big boi damage if you take that away from him you kill his identity. Just like giving Bryan a strong df1 or Kazuya good poking would destroy their identities. And yes I get it as a Tekken vet I know 2D doesn't belong but I really like Geese man. He's the only one to me that has potential in future titles they just need to rebalance him and fix his scaling. Besides I rather main him then the generic hopkick, df2 warriors like Josie, Leroy, Fahk, Claudio, Kat, etc.
Played a "Street Fighter style" Akuma the other day. By that I mean he's playing the character exactly like they're playing Street Fighter instead of Tekken. It's honestly great fun to face someone who plays like that. It's just so odd! XD
@@arandomreddituser2722 Don't have one, sorry. Was definitely a memorable experience though. Was playing as King, pulled off a Jaguar Step punish on his rage art towards the end. I love how that works against Akuma.
@@dariemmii yeah i mean, everytime he goes on stream, he would probably do it for 5-8 hours. And that arcade machine is kinda old idk if the machine’s electricity requirement is not big
He thinks a lot of the changes are mostly positive for akuma. He still does the more difficult combos as they do have slightly higher damage and much better wall carry
Cant wait for tekken 8 where kazuya gets 6 bars and he can use 1 to do a special mid electric thats +8 on block and on hit he automatically does 5 electrics for 80 damage, which can then screw and do a death combo at the wall. But you also get a 1 bar special hellsweep launch that has no block stun on the first hit and its a low mid or low low, both of which are +5 on block and they do 48 damage. Cant wait for tekken 8!
Not saying this cuz i main him but i want DVJ to stay S+ tier. He's the golden boy of Tekken plus the strongest character according to the canon lore. This tier talk makes me wish corona ends so we could enjoy some actual twt tournaments.
@@evilDevilJin101 Devil Jin isn’t even S+ tier anymore, he’s definitely S++ tier now. As I said, you will literally see 7 out of 8 Devil Jin’s in top 8 of tournaments. I’d even argue that he’s better than release Leroy or Fakhurmom, while only being slightly harder execution wise, and that’s debatable too.
@@homiixide defs not better then release leroy or fahk all they really did was give him his uf4 your smoking crack my guy, and defs won't see him 7 out of 8 because he's a high execution character and not many have that level of execution
As if his death combos weren't bullshit already, get ready to see even more players doing this stuff in tournaments. Community: "Nerf Akuma, and remove his cheap death combos" Namco: "Hmm let's make his death combos even easier to do!"
That's what they wanted if I remember correctly, homogenize the fuck out of the characters so that its easier for people to switch from character to character. Really depressing if they keep going down this way. But I feel like for Akuma's Case its a matter of accessibility more than making him similar to rest of the roster. They want Ono's boi to get picked more across the ranks.
@@garretgodfrey168 of course. The Bob changes are some of the signs of this. I just pray they don't patch the weakness of other legacy interesting characters like giving back Steve his generic CH df2. Or god forbid a i15 normal launcher.
I think the whole purpose of akuma was to see how street fighter characters would fit in tekken. Think about it all these responses would be for nothing if it wasn’t test. Making him easier is probably another step to see how sf characters are going to fit in,but you never know.
Before he took note of damage around 5:13 he finishes off the combo differently, a more damaging combo cause at the wall hit it was 90 something damage an the other one was 80 something.

yeah that is actually hard to do at the start. But there are multiple frames for that input window so its not the hardest. You just gotta press 1 at a specific timing, around when ff2 is connecting and it will come out.
@@mistashadow you have to buffer it into the attack animation like it is a fast 112 punish or like when kuni throws her kunai after dash1, input it real fast there is also a cheat input if you have 2+3 on a trigger I have a video where I landed the rage art incombo cuz I was researching the timing for my buddy so he could get it consistent, he can fadc twice which is crazzy I cannot even fadc even tho I tried alot of times
Mained Akuma since season 1, would practice for hours with his optimal combos, set ups and punishes, eventually got to the point I could land the hard combos well over 50% of the time. Only to find out 99% of Akuma players in high rank just fireball/demon flip spam. This is just gonna influence that. Give me tekken 8, I'm over this
Dang I didn't realize this was the case. I don't let low rank akumas get away with jumps so I assume everyone doesn't. Although to be fair low rank akumas are extremely telegraphed, and im sure high rank ones are much better at disguising their options/5050s
I started the game 3 days ago and i chose akuma for my main as soon as i start the game cuz am a old tekken fan i just couldn't play the game and now i can play it and am happy about my akuma🖤
Akuma is one of my mains, been playing tekken for about a year so far, but could never land the back1 after the fadc. I'm too slow, despite having no troubles with it my first few days. Guess I'll keep at it
I really think that's a smart choice from the devs. The character is not overall easier, he's just more accessible, and if you want to master him you will have to put the effort. It's really great imo, casuals are happy, hight level/competitive players will not be disgusted by the easiness because it's just weak for them so the hard version will be better in 99% of cases.
This character is completely busted, literally breaks the basic logic of Tekken. Most content creators have been DEFENDING this busted character because there were only like 5 players in the world of can do these combos/punishes consistently in real matches. Needless to say, no one is happy that these busted frames and damage are now accessible to everyone.
Yep we need akuma geese in tekken 8 tweak them a bit like add anti air mechanisms give them restrictions for broken damage like akuma in SF they are cool characters
I didn't expect that coming : Why ? I'm 35 , I'm so old " hahahaha , i'm serious in watching then a punchline there . So late to see this video . Anyway thanks for this TMM
But the whole reason why Akuma is considered to be so strong is because of the risk/reward of his moves. You still need to know the super difficult combos with akuma in order to get the amazing risk/reward that makes akuma so good to begin with, but now you can also study the easier combos to give yourself more consistency in certain situations. If a person just wants to do the easier combos without knowing the hard combos, then that person should just play lucky chloe and spam hop kicks and cat rolls. The bottom line is that Akuma is more viable at lower levels of play, but there are already plenty of other characters that will do much better online. And in competitive play, these changes are more like big quality of life changes that make it so that you don't have to do the super hard mode combos anymore if you just want to punish. In fact, I think that it gives the character more depth by making it so that a person can study and learn more combos for more consistent punishment. I also think that the developers didn't want spectators to not be able to play the character that the pros play, and that's why they made this change even if it means that people play the character in a way that's different from the way that the pros play. If a person just wants to learn the easy mode combos, that person is not much better off than if he were to just play lucky chloe. With akuma, you would get much better punishment but only when you have meter. And you don't have access to these combos when you don't have meter while characters unlike Lucky Chloe who can spam hopkicks and cat rolls all day. The god-tier pakistan akumas that are already very consistent with the hard mode combos will benefit only slightly from these changes. Having to juggle more combo routes and situations to get that perfect wall splat is a challenge in itself.
One thing that bothers me the most about akuma in tekken is how he doesn’t have lower health than the rest of roster. He’s supposed to be a glass cannon.
People are hating on super akuma when he was playing him. He was the only person who can preform his death combos in tournaments and he did it against chikurin and liquid . Best Japanese's players . Then people start to hating on him because he was nothing without the character. Now the table has turned. Akuma he s not been the same as harder as used to be . Let s those ass scurbs playing akuma and be like oh l can do those combos now . Smh after 3 seasons passed
@@Claweddigger09 Oh that works but it has to be a full dash and its hard to shift your thumb between forward and back 4 times, cleanly, and time the dash properly. Plus there are situations where she won't get the last 1+2 hit if they are even slightly off-axis with a single normal dash. Lastly that works perfectly if you have 5 hits before the screw. 6 hits is still manageable but again, you need slightly deeper than a regular normal dash to make sure it doesn't drop. However, Its a bitch to do if you have tacked in 7 hits before the screw. I do Bryan Deep Dash Combos very consistently now. This is harder. Trust me.
Hi everyone! Hope you're all doing brilliantly :). Myself and a good friend of mine host a weekly self-development podcast and this week's episode is featuring a very special guest, TheMainManSwe himself! He talked very openly and eloquently about his struggles with anxiety and handling societal pressures in the world that we live in today, and he also provided some excellent advice as to how he was able to overcome these things and become a little bit better each day. We talk about this, as well as a whole plethora of other topics that hopefully you guys listening can gain some benefit from. We would be incredibly grateful if you guys could give it a listen and let us know any feedback (positive or negative) in the comments below! Follow this link to be taken to the episode: open.spotify.com/episode/6gkHOSmNZv3Z1PCJQUC3MW?si=1gkvQxzsS8KNVGt-xyGFpg I really hope you guys like it! Much love, The DMC
Since you asked nicely, I checked that podcast and I want to give you my feedback. Imo it's too long you should cut it to parts. Idk maybe 15-20 minutes for each part, that would be a lot better for people who want to listen to this podcast but don't have too much time. I like that you asked interesting questions, and that you were actually listening to him, not just mindlessly asking questions like many people do. This podcast is on Spotify but I think when you see a person that is talking is better because somehow I focus more. So next time maybe try uploading it on youtube with cams? Overall nice podcast, fun to listen to while drinking tea or coffee :) I love the positive atmosphere keep it up guys, wish you best!
@@saitou6613 thanks man for the productive feedback and the kind words ❤️ it really is appreciated!

Thanks so much for giving us a listen! Have a great day sir!
@@Joseph-gm5fb Agreed TMM had many interesting things to say. I actually started to using his advice. What I'm worried about, that girl is going to reject me? It's not the end of the world. I was always worried about trying something new because I was always thinking about bad consequences that would never happen!
Just started trying the tekken akuma. Goodness. I cant play him worth a lick. Im sure after mucg practice ill appreciate him. Hes gonna make my brain fall out.
Lmao it always had that screw launch tbh i play akuma since S3 and when i feel like i can't reach the wall with an ordinary jab carry i just use ex tatsu and it does the work for me plus it can wallbreak
So this is the vid everyone used to silence you... Is this vid about Season 4 changes? And this is supposed to rebuke Your thoughts about a character who has been in the game FROM THE BEGINNING?
This is why Super Akouma said Akuma is better now. And overall, I agree. Awais Honey said that Akuma was better in season 3. But that's to be expected. Doing the FADC stuff for him isn't hard in the first place anymore so getting the damage reduced on that can hurt a pro player that optimized and got maximum out of every aspect of damage conversion. So I think Akuma is now pretty balanced in that regard. A lot of us Akuma hopefuls were always bugged about having to do so much ridiculous stuff that broke the pad that it wasn't worth picking him up. Now, after seeing this video, I will give Akuma an honest go of it. Even if I am not honey or SA, I will get a lot of bang for my buck with that Ex-Tatsu.
Only Pakistanis are fine with akuma... He's hated everywhere else... Even knee constantly moans about akuma, he thinks that akuma has nothing to do with Tekken.. Opinions of the majority no longer can be ignored, demon flip should be hit, just like 10 frame launcher and D2, and then buff him in other areas.. Many top tiers got nerfed while akuma is slightly better than before , It doesn't take nuclear science to understand the state of this game
even with the big boy combo after the dash cancel you do b1 and if the d3 wasn't close enough or you miss the b1 timing b1 is a high you get launched anyways but an experienced akuma player will be able to tell whether the D3 was clean hit or not and only then proceed to do b1. anyways if you have 2 bars the execution gets really easy you know the combo that mainman showed in which you don't even need to do b1 just do 1 into tatsu for the 2nd bar.
You must be underestimating how bad I am at this game...

To be fair Sako is like 40 now and still has amazing execution
I really think that's a smart choice from the devs. The character is not overall easier, he's just more accessible, and if you want to master him you will have to put the effort. It's really great imo, casuals are happy, hight level/competitive players will not be disgusted by the easiness because it's just weak for them so the hard version will be better in 99% of cases.
That's generally what the devs went for this season, more accessibility but content creators dont like that for some reason
This character is completely busted, literally breaks the basic logic of Tekken. Most content creators have been DEFENDING this busted character because there were only like 5 players in the world of can do these combos/punishes consistently in real matches. Needless to say, no one is happy that these busted frames and damage are now accessible to everyone.
"A Touch of Shmuken" 😂😂😂😂
Now everybody will wants Akuma in Tekken 8 😐
Yep we need akuma geese in tekken 8 tweak them a bit like add anti air mechanisms give them restrictions for broken damage like akuma in SF they are cool characters
What😂, I actually did it
you are now 5x's better at tekken than you were before, congratulations.
8:16 I AM THE STORM THAT IS APROACHING!!!!
I didn't expect that coming : Why ? I'm 35 , I'm so old " hahahaha , i'm serious in watching then a punchline there . So late to see this video . Anyway thanks for this TMM
But the whole reason why Akuma is considered to be so strong is because of the risk/reward of his moves. You still need to know the super difficult combos with akuma in order to get the amazing risk/reward that makes akuma so good to begin with, but now you can also study the easier combos to give yourself more consistency in certain situations. If a person just wants to do the easier combos without knowing the hard combos, then that person should just play lucky chloe and spam hop kicks and cat rolls. The bottom line is that Akuma is more viable at lower levels of play, but there are already plenty of other characters that will do much better online. And in competitive play, these changes are more like big quality of life changes that make it so that you don't have to do the super hard mode combos anymore if you just want to punish. In fact, I think that it gives the character more depth by making it so that a person can study and learn more combos for more consistent punishment. I also think that the developers didn't want spectators to not be able to play the character that the pros play, and that's why they made this change even if it means that people play the character in a way that's different from the way that the pros play. If a person just wants to learn the easy mode combos, that person is not much better off than if he were to just play lucky chloe. With akuma, you would get much better punishment but only when you have meter. And you don't have access to these combos when you don't have meter while characters unlike Lucky Chloe who can spam hopkicks and cat rolls all day. The god-tier pakistan akumas that are already very consistent with the hard mode combos will benefit only slightly from these changes. Having to juggle more combo routes and situations to get that perfect wall splat is a challenge in itself.
Time waste
One thing that bothers me the most about akuma in tekken is how he doesn’t have lower health than the rest of roster. He’s supposed to be a glass cannon.
Same
Because bamco is clueless.
@@Shibu_PL if that’s the case then it wouldn’t hurt to play street fighter.
@@nmiereemery5896 Never played any sf game so it could be fun.
@@Shibu_PL not a single street fighter???
My online experience. Everyones using king or jin.
PC Gigas Player Here.
Can relate.
On ps4 ive played a few matches and havnt ran into either, granted, I play king and devil jin
It’s been a while since I’ve seen your videos. Your studio looks nice!
Anyone else notice how they nerfed the absolute shit out of Kuma in season 4?
Yessssssss bruh wtf..... I was mad and didn’t even main them
@@wisdomseeker0142 Harada: "We can't have him winning any more tournaments, also don't ask me for shyt."
4:54 ahh my Tekken life struggle 😅
Bring back the season 1, akuma, execution is very hard, but damage is insane.
People are hating on super akuma when he was playing him. He was the only person who can preform his death combos in tournaments and he did it against chikurin and liquid . Best Japanese's players . Then people start to hating on him because he was nothing without the character. Now the table has turned. Akuma he s not been the same as harder as used to be . Let s those ass scurbs playing akuma and be like oh l can do those combos now . Smh after 3 seasons passed
Akuma has always been for scrubs ...
He has nothing to do with Tekken...
I'm 37, you're making us 30+ people look bad. hehehe
Teeheehe
I HOPE YOU ARE ALSO DOING AWESOME MAINMAN!!! 🥊💀❤️
intro was awesome... veeery very good ...keep it up ... big fan from afghanistan.
10:00 it's still good risk to reward, you get over 100 damage if you land it or you take maybe 90 damage if the enemy gets a wall without rage
When mailman says anyone he is talking about anyone that has played since tekken 1
I think they wanted Akuma to be more accessible and then be liked more by the community. problem is, they shouldve toned down the damage a tad more
Nah more like give other anti airs to counter akuma geese Eliza etc
You don’t even look 35 , wow!
You are not just anyone. You are a final Boss!
Loving the new setup 👌
4:37 :c don't worry king it happens to the best of us
08:15 Here He Did It Just One Time In The Whole Video.
WaW I can see more details of your face now in the start 😂
5:00 Oh, you're 35? Fuck you Google for lying to me, he ain't 50.
I loaded up tekken to see if i could do it and succeeded on my 3rd try. I don't main akuma at all. I only have like 30 minutes on him
how do you make this video and say its only problematic at the highest level 2 days later? lol
i almost mastered all of his combo but this dissapoint me lol. Long practise his combo but suddenly his combo become easier with same dmg
@9192631770 H who cares if your punish is unsafe on block lol, shouldn't be blocked anyway
How do you follow up the demon after down 1 plus 2 I’m having a lot of difficulty
How did he know my fingers were crooked.. HOW?!!!
Mainman: Anyone can do this.
Me: Dropping Kazumi bnf2,1,1+2 in combos after screw.
I saw a comment somewhere about that.
You can just normal dash then do the B F 2 1 1+2 cuz Kazumi steps forward when she does that move
@@Claweddigger09 Oh that works but it has to be a full dash and its hard to shift your thumb between forward and back 4 times, cleanly, and time the dash properly. Plus there are situations where she won't get the last 1+2 hit if they are even slightly off-axis with a single normal dash. Lastly that works perfectly if you have 5 hits before the screw. 6 hits is still manageable but again, you need slightly deeper than a regular normal dash to make sure it doesn't drop. However, Its a bitch to do if you have tacked in 7 hits before the screw. I do Bryan Deep Dash Combos very consistently now. This is harder. Trust me.
@@BullC6 good to know
death combo at 8:16
Hi everyone! Hope you're all doing brilliantly :). Myself and a good friend of mine host a weekly self-development podcast and this week's episode is featuring a very special guest, TheMainManSwe himself!
He talked very openly and eloquently about his struggles with anxiety and handling societal pressures in the world that we live in today, and he also provided some excellent advice as to how he was able to overcome these things and become a little bit better each day. We talk about this, as well as a whole plethora of other topics that hopefully you guys listening can gain some benefit from. We would be incredibly grateful if you guys could give it a listen and let us know any feedback (positive or negative) in the comments below!
Follow this link to be taken to the episode: open.spotify.com/episode/6gkHOSmNZv3Z1PCJQUC3MW?si=1gkvQxzsS8KNVGt-xyGFpg
I really hope you guys like it!
Much love, The DMC
Since you asked nicely, I checked that podcast and I want to give you my feedback.
Imo it's too long you should cut it to parts. Idk maybe 15-20 minutes for each part, that would be a lot better for people who want to listen to this podcast but don't have too much time. I like that you asked interesting questions, and that you were actually listening to him, not just mindlessly asking questions like many people do. This podcast is on Spotify but I think when you see a person that is talking is better because somehow I focus more. So next time maybe try uploading it on youtube with cams?
Overall nice podcast, fun to listen to while drinking tea or coffee :)
I love the positive atmosphere keep it up guys, wish you best!
@@saitou6613 thanks man for the productive feedback and the kind words ❤️ it really is appreciated! The RUclips with cams stuff is definitely something we want to get ourselves involved in because you're absolutely right it feels a lot more personal and easier to focus. And yeah perhaps we will try to make it shorter, although this one was longer than our usual as Adrian had so many really insightful things to say :)
The one we recorded today which is going up in January was closer to half an hour so we can see how that goes haha!
Thanks so much for giving us a listen! Have a great day sir!
@@Joseph-gm5fb Agreed TMM had many interesting things to say. I actually started to using his advice. What I'm worried about, that girl is going to reject me? It's not the end of the world. I was always worried about trying something new because I was always thinking about bad consequences that would never happen!
@@saitou6613 And he is exactly the same in person! No crazy ideas or radical thoughts, just realistic and helpful :)
Just started trying the tekken akuma. Goodness. I cant play him worth a lick. Im sure after mucg practice ill appreciate him. Hes gonna make my brain fall out.
Me: *Spends days on Akuma's combos*
Mainman: what if you didn't
Me: But it's the same....
Lmao it always had that screw launch tbh i play akuma since S3 and when i feel like i can't reach the wall with an ordinary jab carry i just use ex tatsu and it does the work for me plus it can wallbreak
Akuma needs his parry moves are scrabble flixs his move list
So this is the vid everyone used to silence you...
Is this vid about Season 4 changes?
And this is supposed to rebuke
Your thoughts about a character who has been in the game FROM THE BEGINNING?
His hit detection is tooooo flawless
Any other character this would piss me off but Akuma is just such a rad character I cant hate. Lol
"Even you!" Gee thanks
After all this years he is still...
This is why Super Akouma said Akuma is better now. And overall, I agree. Awais Honey said that Akuma was better in season 3. But that's to be expected. Doing the FADC stuff for him isn't hard in the first place anymore so getting the damage reduced on that can hurt a pro player that optimized and got maximum out of every aspect of damage conversion. So I think Akuma is now pretty balanced in that regard. A lot of us Akuma hopefuls were always bugged about having to do so much ridiculous stuff that broke the pad that it wasn't worth picking him up. Now, after seeing this video, I will give Akuma an honest go of it. Even if I am not honey or SA, I will get a lot of bang for my buck with that Ex-Tatsu.
Only Pakistanis are fine with akuma... He's hated everywhere else...
Even knee constantly moans about akuma, he thinks that akuma has nothing to do with Tekken..
Opinions of the majority no longer can be ignored, demon flip should be hit, just like 10 frame launcher and D2, and then buff him in other areas..
Many top tiers got nerfed while akuma is slightly better than before , It doesn't take nuclear science to understand the state of this game
even with the big boy combo after the dash cancel you do b1 and if the d3 wasn't close enough or you miss the b1 timing b1 is a high you get launched anyways but an experienced akuma player will be able to tell whether the D3 was clean hit or not and only then proceed to do b1. anyways if you have 2 bars the execution gets really easy you know the combo that mainman showed in which you don't even need to do b1 just do 1 into tatsu for the 2nd bar.
