Imortal you're officially the Raven sensei. After applying 80% of your techniques my Raven isn't really struggling in ranked battle. I can wave dash vortex like a Kazuya with Raven now. I just need to touch up on a few match ups a little more and we'll be ready. Yes. Keep the Raven dojo vids coming this is helping way more players than you think.
Hey there. Last time I commented was on one of your guide videos. Just letting you that I reached purple ranks today. Did the best I could to apply as much Raven tech as possible. Credit where it's due, your videos were definitely a big help. Though I will say Mighty Ruler is as far as I wanna go ranked-wise. I never really relied on Ranked for experience, but it's nice having something to show for that experience. Thanks again, Soul.
Update: started my raven journey with your vids about 3 weeks ago. I’m a first time Tekken player and I’m now tenryu with raven!!!! Thank you for this guide!! I’m at a point now where I have a decent understanding of ravens strengths and weaknesses but most of my losses are due to matchup knowledge and not knowing how to close the space between us I need to work on my wave dash to wr2 as I know that will be a vital tool to upkeep pressure!!
Thank you for the advice, after improving my movement by using backdash macros i went from orange to red ranks. Couldn't have made it without watching this!
Oh THIS is Raven content I've been dreaming of! Some good points at the start that commenting on live games is difficult, but I'm looking forward to hear gameplay commentary and thoughts in matches. AND A IN WHOLE SERIES!!
I was binging your Raven series as I'm practicing making him my secondary (I hit red rank with Reina recently). I commented on your Victor guide weeks ago, I dropped the character but wanna say every information guide has been helpful regardless of the character or topic, and you are carrying the Raven pack right now
I kind of subconsciously knew that frames could stuff power crushes since t7 but your video actually put it very plainly and explained it well, its good stuff ive thought about since
Just hit red ranks and my Raven sucks compared to yours 😂😭😭 thanks for your dedication to the character and the content around it. You’ve been helping me big time for like 4 years now. ❤
Appreciate the content bro, I'm plateauing at Fujin-Kishin and I'm getting walked all over because I'm typically very conservative and defensive. Looking forward to more uploads ❤
Defense is the way to go man, most people in ranked just throw out unsafe stuff banking on you not knowing the matchup. All the way up to god ranks I’ve experienced this.
@@norf-kr6od No for sure! I think I need to develop a better feel of smelling blood in the water and going ham sometimes instead of letting things go back to neutral too often. Defense is 👌👌👌 But I wouldn't mind adding a little more stank into my play 😉
@@livefast1064 Oh yeah offense is important too of course. Even if you’re defensive having strong pressure yourself helps make the most out of every interaction you win.
@@norf-kr6od Here is one thing that could help. If you know the match up defense could actually win you the match. If you're not sure of a match up strategic mashing and spacing them out a lot will be the best way to go.
Thanks for the content as always ! I'm in the red ranks, I understand everything you're saying but in the end I'm just like the guys you're fighting and I find it so hard to implement your advices. Do you have any tips, any drills ? I guess character knowledge plays a major role too, as I'm getting hit by so many strings that I don't know how to punish .. Peace !
i will say the same to everyone, look at your replays, figure out what you're not doing/ what's beating you and make a conscious effort to force yourself to fix the issues. Even if it feels unnatural
Im new to Tekken and have been using your technics to get to Mighty Ruler, you're the goat ! (Even though I deranked back to red because I cant beat King and Alisa lmao)
My friend told me that I should learn setups like that they are unguaranteed combos that depend on what oponnents does. Maybe the oki is a synonym for that, just wanna clarify what I meant
looking forward to this around blue ranks. btw is that a mod you have to hide the ui on replays? also, have you considered doing live coms instead of replay analysis? it would be nice to see your thought process real time?
I’ve been in red ranks for maybe 100+ matches now, been demoted and promoted between them about 5 times. I definitely feel like I get sucked in to playing unsafe and miss loads punish opportunities. I’m also bad for not learning what my opponent does and adapting.
I Shazammed a real fire track a while back and the results said it was Finesse by imortalxsoul. I did not know it was you lol I loved Finesse... Unfortunately I didnt c it on your site tho. Would you be able to upload Finesse on YT?
I'm sitting in red racks, trying to be more solid. My issues are that my muscle memory is always telling to throw out panic moves, and once I get that under control and try to play patiently, I'm overly passive, miss my turn, and get mixed up. I think my brain is still learning to react to the game's situations in time to act. I've practiced whiff punishing and have that decently, but struggle to play up close anywhere close to solid. Any advice or drills you could recommend?
Ravens small tekken tools are pretty good, but you need to be comfortable playing there. Try making a conscious effort to force yourself to play more range 1-0
lol So I’m am stuck in red but I do find these dudes who block. So I as Raven do tons of mix ups to open them up. But now I know cause sometimes just blocking is what makes me lose. No to mention losing half my heath to a wall carry and an Okie.
Hey man, been an avid watcher since Tekken 8 came out and they finally gave Raven his balls back. These videos have been tremendously helpful all of them, and I suddenly say this small part of you making music, I'm myself involved in the production scene (mainly techno,house) I'd be curious to follow this journey as well, do you have an artists page on instagram?
Nah, I don't have a dedicated artist page, I just post stuff to streaming platforms. Most my work is done "offline" in the music scene. Maybe ill start doing studio session videos or something :D
I was stuck there for a good 2 weeks. just keep trying. i play 2 hours a day. you'll realize how much you keep improving each day in those short windows.
You haven't. I always think this and then find a way to improve. Take a step back, make a conscious effort to force yourself to do things to patch up your holes even if it feels uncomfortable
@@tebogotwala5185 this is what got me through the red ranks, I surprisingly moved up 2 ranks and reached flame ruler on Nina the other day just by playing at least 1-2 hours a day, then analysing what I could've done to improve. This video also helped out tons on how to analyse your own gameplay. Big thanks to imortalXsoul for this!
I've found in my rank journey that using df1 to set up your offense will carry you in the early ranks. It catches players sidesteping, it's safe on block, you will often force players to whiff if you sidestep/walk.
@@imortalXsoul I like the video format but I think its a bit too cracked out to go off block punishment and have extremely crisp movement on top of that. Or like the low parry on the whiffed b234 against Feng, a bit too crazy imo. You are winning off situations that are hard to copy for beginners. Its actually something that bothered me back in SFV with all those "How do get out of bronze Rank" type videos and then they just sit there and block punish every match up correctly and then they go: "its that simple guys, look I didnt do anything special" 😅❤
@@yurotk The point of the video series isn’t to copy me. It’s to see the mistakes lower rank players are making with my thoughts on my own decision making and theirs. Often you can’t spot mistakes if you’re similar level … that’s why Tekken players find it difficult to rank/level up. The way I deal with these players is to let *THEM* kill themselves and be patient near round ends, sit on life leads etc which can be seen in every rank group - that’s the point of the video(s) 💀
@@yurotk Well in reality that IS the way to get out of bronze rank. It’s just about what bronze rank players are doing. If the video said how to get out of platinum, it would be the same - but platinum players don’t do the same stuff bronze players are doing so it’s about how to deal with platinum strats but the concept is still the same (block punish, letting them kill themselves, decisions in the clutch, panicking, sitting on life leads etc)

Thank you again for taking actual time to do theses videos and not just post combos and bnb like the rest of the Tekken content creators. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
17:24 hell yes bro love doing that too
Exactly what I needed as of now, I'm struggling with Raven as I haven't used him in awhile. Thank you for this!
I kind of subconsciously knew that frames could stuff power crushes since t7 but your video actually put it very plainly and explained it well, its good stuff ive thought about since
Thank you!
Can’t wait for the Blue guide. I’m good with purples the blues kill me. Can’t break their pressure. The xiao yu, devil Jin, Jun match ups crush me
coming soon 🏃🏽♂️
Just hit red ranks and my Raven sucks compared to yours 😂😭😭 thanks for your dedication to the character and the content around it. You’ve been helping me big time for like 4 years now. ❤
daamn 4 years!?
Been a bit of a slow cook for me, so I just hit red ranks like… last week. Right on time my man!!! Love the Raven content. 💪🏾
thank you! 🙏🏽
🙏🏽 bro, I forgot to mention I got my Destruction rank almost a month ago. Your page really helped.
nice!

Lets ggoooooo
Raven exposed my lack of fundamentals
🤣🤣
@@imortalXsoul Do you have a video where you talk about his best party moves? I know all his safe options but nothing to take risks with
Every vid you make is a literal gem bro
thank you!
Man I needed this after being stuck at Shinryu with Raven.

Great videos man. They have helped me climb my Raven to Tenryu. Soon I'll need advice on how to improve against purple ranks XD
soon purple ⏱️
Thanks for this man. And your beats are FIRE.
much love!!
You are the patron saint of Raven
preciate it! 🙏🏽
Do you think for the next one you could put the button inputs, I know its a little messier but I think seeing each of your moves would be beneficial
This is gonna help so many people out 🔥
Im new to Tekken and have been using your technics to get to Mighty Ruler, you're the goat !
(Even though I deranked back to red because I cant beat King and Alisa lmao)
niiiceeee good stuff man
Sick. I gonna follow this one good. Purple now. cant wait till next vid
ty!
7:17 huh, I almost never use it. People seem to sidestep it easily, even at point blank
That's when you condition with bt b3
It looks so easy if i watch ur videos im struggling so hard 😂
Best raven fr
ty!!
Would love more videos like this
liiterally just what I needed
Is there any good raven setups I can use?
depends what you want to do with the set up… oki?
Are there any setups to make oponnent think should he stay on the ground or stand up?
My friend told me that I should learn setups like that they are unguaranteed combos that depend on what oponnents does. Maybe the oki is a synonym for that, just wanna clarify what I meant
Helping with the algorithme! All love ❤️
much love!!
Yes, this is exactly what I needed. Looking forward to how to get out of blue ranks 😭
👀👀
looking forward to this around blue ranks. btw is that a mod you have to hide the ui on replays? also, have you considered doing live coms instead of replay analysis? it would be nice to see your thought process real time?
Yeah it is a mod, you can control what it hides. Also, playing live is difficult and I tend to play worse but I will consider it LMAO
@@imortalXsoul I think it might be worth a shot bro! Do you mind linking that mod please ?🙏🏾
Top tier videos 🙌
ty!!!
Great video for less experienced players bro! Also I definitely gotta steal that 4~3 for wall carry method of yours 😂 lmao it looks cool as hell
Defo looks flashy af lmaooo
@@imortalXsoul 😂🔥
Glad you making videos because I don’t have the time to make raven tutorials 😂
lmaooo
Dodging that stupid unblockable low 14:34
I’d be curious about a raven 101 about frame tight mixups
hmmm i covered frames and being frame tight in Raven 101 already, not sure it’s worth doing another one
I’ve been in red ranks for maybe 100+ matches now, been demoted and promoted between them about 5 times.
I definitely feel like I get sucked in to playing unsafe and miss loads punish opportunities. I’m also bad for not learning what my opponent does and adapting.
every time you make a new video I put it on my playlist
👀👀👀👀👀👀👀
LETS GO🗣️🔥NEW SERIES
👀👀👀
Crazy because I'm actually stuck in Garyu, I have to get better at fundamentals.
Hope it helps!
Need to step up the duck punish and patience
Great content, thank you bro
thanks for watching!
I’m currently on eliminator right now and I have hit a massive wall, it’s been like this for weeks now
