Have you ever lost to a player that you felt was a TOTAL noob or someone that you thought you were WAY better than? Happens to everybody. But why does it happen? In this video, we explore one of the main reasons for why players end up losing to so-called "mashers" and "scrubs". Take a look!

14:29, Anakin chilling, chatting while having his promotion to GoD, while I'm really focused on my game but still stuck in Raijin.
Anakin also has been playing since he was a kid think about that
Try being stuck in mighty ruler 😅
I agree on mashing mostly. While I don't expect people at purple ranks to know frame data on every character, the 5th time I counter hit someone at plus 6 in one set, it stops being about who was faster, and they're just being belligerent.
This validates my strategy of playing mostly quick matches. My opponents are usually either someone higher than me I can learn from or someone worse than me I can experiment against. It lets me practice, study replays, and identify and break bad habits without being overly focused on rank. Great video thanks for the info!
I feel like I lose more in Quick match than I do Rank... you do get a wide range of players. So I am able to experiment and try to learn people's patterns since a lot of ppl play certain characters all the same way. But yeah I usually "practice" in quick match for a while before heading over to rank.
@@hang1893 nice! sometimes I feel that way too but ultimately it doesn’t matter bc I’m just trying to practice and get better and collect replays to study for the day :D so I’ll just do nothing but quick matches and drills for a month or two and then come back to whatever color I was at and smash it in a few hours!
Right now I’m trying to practice stepping at the right time and blocking a lot to get a handle on every character’s spam moves. I feel like if I was doing that in ranked I’d get demoted so fast haha. Which wouldn’t be a big deal but I find it harder to focus and learn when I’m tilted
@@Brian-oz8io I dont know if you watch or follow phidx but he has a lot of cool drills that you can practice for certain characters. I did a few and it really helps. I need to force myself to practice more. I usually go through the replays... but a lot of times i just want to jump online lol. But i need to force myself to review and practice.
I go straight to ranked. Only got 100 QMs and 3,000 RMs. Unfortunately I get nothing but tekken gods as opponents 😭
@@merikijiya13 I would love to match with Tekken Gods lol. Need as many higher level opponents as possible 🤣 even if I have to get my butt kicked 1,000 times!
Yo it’s crazy that he is casually talking to us. Giving out tips as he works his way to God of destruction and so chill about it.
Anakin is just built different lol
16:30 that what true tekken nerds look like 😂
keep up the good work bro
Ok I'll continue farming wins as drag and tell everyone I'm the best
Yikes
wow, that scrub Anakin can learn a lot from you
Delusion is a hell of a Drag👀
Do it. I bet you won't do that well
@@sltjk2472 well I'm pretty good at telling everyone
I really respect when pro players are blasting so much characters like you, i take it youre just learning new stuff for EVO as you go. I started watching you recently but i recognize you from T7, did you also play other characters alot in 7? I always saw you with your main in every tourney. Maybe this time we’ll see you pull out multiple characters?
I KNOW I play slow. I do try to play "proper" tekken and it feels like online especially ranked it is a mash fest 😂😂😂 I hit tekken king and thought ppl would play more "respectful" 😂😂 it has become beat yo ass before you beat mine. Im slowly learning to play aggresive something ive never had to do in all my years in tekken. But something Anakin said hits home for me a lot of players were not reacting they were goona do it anyway haha. My issue is it's hard to play super defensive because at least for me it feels like a slot machine ha. Sorry for the long ass comment, definitely not a rant just how it feels for me personally.
Also I need to learn some flowcharts ive never used one in 20 years lmao ikr. I used to solely rely on reaction based play but the aggressive play is new for me
Bamco deleted defensive play in t8
I agree
In higher ranks I find you need to really lay Into someone for them to "settle down" lmaoo for them to start playing properly rather then who can mash and press buttons faster and better once you give em a taste of their own medicine and figire out how to bloco and dodge some of their combos and patterns it becomes more of a tit for tat until they start cheesing spammy cheesey power crush bs etc. but yea just take em for half or more of their health dominate for a bit and usually they settle down a bit lmao. Not always easy though
@@robertharris1076 defense has never been my issue. The way the game is designed says otherwise. I'll wait until the next patch before I play anymore ranked. Made it to tekken god Supreme but still don't feel like real tekken.
Anakin, so you’re essentially saying to be playing with an active mind, instead of playing brain off and hoping that your patterns and reactions are stronger than your opponents. My question is, how can you develop the skill of playing with an active mind? I usually start out trying to do that then a couple of games in I fall into my habits and the worse part is that I don’t even realize I’m doing it !
He answers this at 11:40
1.
Watch your own replays and study your own patterns.
Come up with ideas for what you could have done when your default ideas didn't work. Drill your new ideas in practice mode.
2.
It's also important you get enough sleep, eat good food and exercise.
3.
Take breaks when you notice you've stopped thinking.
What helped me is that I always keep in my mind that I have to change my things up and each match I'm forcing myself to do that while thinking about it. After a few hours or days, it finally works.
@@8bit_pineapple stop trying that hard and find peace(;
I keep an active commentary of what I’m seeing so my brain doesn’t become autonomous.
13:08. This is my problem now I'm trying to get out of bad habits while learning new patterns. It's costing me in demotions bit It's worth it I'm learning and improving
ayyee my question resulted in a vid !! kinda hype ! hope others can benefit from it ! GL in everyones matches !
Good stuff!!
@@TkAnakin 💪🏽💪🏽
Thank you for asking that question
@@TJBlack3.5 sure thing man ! Hoping you have success with your ranked climb 💪🏽
Hey Anakin I am stuck with my Paul to Tekken King, difficult to go higher at this moment. I think to change the character (Azucena) to maybe discover another perspective of the game to go out of my usual patterns. Is it a good idea?
So, when you mention flow charts and that you even have some of your own, but it's different and its "better" and some don't have branching paths or "forks" would you say having multiple outs is good? Like ofc everyone flowcharts, but usually I try to do one to condition my opponent and then switch it up on them. I'm still in orange 1 with Paul, but I try to condition my opponent to block low after multiple lows and then blow up with a high or mid etc. But I do "mash" as you say, but I can change it up?
My boi Anakin with more wisdoms of knowledge for the Tekken community. Let's go! 🙌
Shoutouts to Anakin 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿 alot of your videos helped me…keep doing them
I have a very hard time locking in to where I can react consistently when it's my turn
It’s also important to start your turn off with the correct moves (aka faster pokes after blocking). If it is “your turn”, but you spend it on a slower move that allows you to be beaten out by their “mashing”, then it wasn’t your turn…to do THAT specific attack.
I’ve got this problem real bad too. Tekken’s got some weird timing to it but you just gotta believe in the framedata. Just learn your own so you can figure out a few frametraps. If Tekken is anything like Streets, people cant block a frame trap worth crap
Some generic tips against flowchart mashers: Mid check when you have frames. Many flowcharters want you to jab at wrong time to run into their high crush launcher trap. If opponent doesn’t respect frames, don’t do low/mid mixup against them. You just get hopkicked. Instead press fast safe mid CH moves or df2. Whenever you have frames, use them. Preferably with mid attacks. Don’t let them start their flow chart mixup. But have to be careful with pushback moves. Many opponents at lower ranks (blue and below) just do pushback move + immediate whiff punish. You can check them with fast long range moves or just backdash and whiff punish. Another class of flow charts is plus on block string enders. You just have to learn those strings and duck launch. But it can be overwhelming if they just spam various strings randomly. Usually string spammers don’t know how to defend, so best to start your own offence and keep it flowing.
thanks man ! !
The first Eddy never punishing demo man or deathfist with db+4,4 hurt my soul a little bit
My buddies n I have been saying this for min. There's definitely something to it for sure👍 it's why some people struggle against newer players even if they've been playing for years. In chess it's difficult to set somebody up who does know the rules enough to see that he's been set up. That can be challenging to beat
Saw Paul and immediately clicked, thats my main.
You madman, how dare you calmly maul an Eddy while answering chat questions. The damage on that wall combo @2:47 was crazy.
The audacity!!
24:12 timestamp for reason that anakin is not going to EVO Japan
“What separates my flowchart from everyone else’s is i can change mine whenever i want”. Of course, the flowchart of no flowchart. Its so obvious! :P
And i cant get past tenryu rank as of now
can you make your mic volume higher, its hard to hear your videos
Man all I do is press buttons, I stay in the positive and keep on pressing buttons lol. I needs more buttons.
Get hitbox lol😂
how much do you bench anakin
Not even the bar.
225 last I heard, pretty good
Wow….
What's the input for the wakeup feng did @8:16 and can anyone do it?
that's not feng specific every char can do that, you just hold forward
Someone should send this to LTG
Abare !
Bro, could you please please please explain about tekken prowess? I really don't understand. Everytime i fought someone, even just 1 rank below me, i perfect him, 3 round straight, i did block, punish, heat smash, combo, but the tekken prowess went down. I fought someone higher rank, lost badly, and i got my tekken prowess increased. I don't understand!
The tekken statistics factor in slightly. Offense, defense, etc. so while some stats are going up, others are going down. You will gain and lose a few points that way but the biggest determining factor is your highest ranked character. So rank up and that progress will jump up more
@@TkAnakin thanks so much bro! Really appreciate your answer. You've been really helpful 🙏🏻
Love you el hombre toxico ❤
Love you too
Dbz fighterz mode . If aint ladding got a go faster
Wow bro eight tgod insane
Is flow charting a bad thing? im just trying to see if i should jus mix up more moves and not jus have a set of moves that i do
idk, but not adapting and readjusting after they start countering your flowcharts is even worse
@@premiumr98 thank you for that info. So basically learn more moves so I dnt get my ass beat 🤣🤣
Flowcharting is bad if you want to learn well..
Just because at garyu say and no one's reacting to your seeable low when your at ruler you will get stomped and have no idea what to do.
You should be playing Tekken
@@Guitar-Dog I have been my mess up was not remembering combos and playing with multiple characters without remembering they moves but I'm tryna to get better at the combos and learning one player
@@geminidachef9642 playing multiple characters is good, but you want to get one down and on lock...
Like landing CHs and doing the combo 100%, knowing your move/stances.
What I did in T7 was play one character kinda plateau and then try out someone else, try and get to the same rank as my main.
Then when you go back to your main it will feel easier then you can take things from your secondary and help your main character with the new techniques
A lot of tekken 7 players that were good in 7 are losing hard in 8 because it favours mashers. I’m a masher I’ve always been a masher, I’ve played tekken since 1990 and I’ve always lent toward king of fighters and street fighter until
Last year where I started taking tekken seriously, I play hwoarang and have since 3. I’m a rush down player I play fei long and yang and Kimberly I play iori and kyo and Shen/Oswald, rushdown style is just more fun thinking fast is the key and not switching off your brain when in flow and it’s tough. I’m only flame ruler but I’m progressing and I really love tekken. I think the defensive players will become slightly more aggressive and will start finding the game easier. It’s like how the darksouls players eventually caught up to me in bloodborne (I played darksouls and demons no shield light armour and shotels/katana and rolls instead of blocks. Bloodborne just made my playstyle easier the community mostly just cried for 2 months till articles started coming out saying I’d been playing darksouls the fun way and people online couldn’t tell me I was playing it wrong 🤷♀️
Just made a fujin ragequit lol... thats my problem i lose to crazy mighty rulers or sometimes even tenryus.. so irritating
P.s finally reached purple
Congrats! Keep going
@@TkAnakin within 3 days im in battle ruler. I want to reach blue ranks
Dont know if your interested but im a fujin now thanks for the encouragement
Bruh 🤦♂️
I know you are a pro, but damn 8 in GoD and you can play them all so fluently. You literally switched from Paul to Shaheen with no effort.... I also know you've been playing for a long time, but how do you compartmentalize all the moves etc.?
Playing yoshimitsu and losing becuase people dont even know your mixing them ip
I got to blue without learning how to flash properly and now I regret it because I realize people press me when they realize they are not gonna get flashed
If they were worse than you than you wouldn't have lost.
Long set yes, first to three not really
I don’t get the “if you play slow you miss the frames…playing proper, frame tight” those are contradicting, you either do the frame trap or not, if your trying to use ‘mental frames’ that only works if you’re in the opponents head, and if they’re mashing, you’re definitely not in their head. They’re conditioning you. If a scrub DPs 24/7 and you jab into the dp everytime, you’re the scrub
Yeah, it’s repeated in the video “he just did it faster” then nah, you didn’t frame trap idk what else there is to it. The rps frame traps in this game are decided on what you think your opponent is gonna do, ie, s characters with string into stance, the stance follow up YOU choose doesn’t beat EVERY option, so if you did a single hit mid outta stance & they mash PC, when you also had a low option outta stance, then YOU made the wrong decision
He’s not talking about frame traps.
His point is there’s more to playing correctly than just having the right idea.
You may know what to do to counter something but if you can’t execute it properly , you will lose anyway. And that execution becomes more difficult the faster your opponent plays.
Would also caution against thinking of things as ‘correct/wrong’ decisions. Every decision is contextual.
In your example, his decision to PC beat my choice of a mid *in that one interaction*, but the context of all the other interactions is crucial to judging whether that’s good for me or not.
I’ve now seen he will use PC as an answer in that situation, which could be advantageous or disadvantageous for me depending on a couple factors.
@@WeMissDimebag yeah but idk why execution comes into the conversation. Like I said, you’re either doing the frame trap or not. “How fast your opponent plays” is NOT a factor in a frame trap. The frame trap by definition doesn’t LET your opponent push a button. The fact is, this game is heavy RPS. You can’t frame trap 100% of the time in a dynamic rps type of game, my point is the frame trap you CHOOSE to do is based off your assumption of what options you want to shut down for your opponent & then conditioning comes into play. “He does low after stance every time, imma block” but me as the player I have to know I’m making you think that, then go mid. It’s too dynamic. Throws & armor can beat highs on frame trap but string checks like asukas 1,3 beat the armor.
& yes we agree on it being contextual during the fight but that doesn’t excuse you making the ‘wrong’ read. It was wrong, that’s all there is to it. You got hit lol
I understand the point your making. What you're tryna say is :
*Educated mashing beats educated play*
Which I totally agree
But I just requested a tekken 8 refund because :
*stupid mashing is beating educated mashing in t8*
Thanks for educating us all these years man. But I gotta draw the line and save my time and money on this edition
weak
✌✌✌
I know he's talking while playing but this 32 minute video could be condensed into 10 minutes with a clear point and objective and examples in training mode. My boy just yappin.
Yip yap yappity yap
While you may have a point (or not), don't ruin it for the rest of us by being a toolbox!
Thank you Anakin🤓
You apply what our learn in practice mode in a real game .. he’s giving us that example.. it’s plenty of other shorter videos out there
House of goons
Guys at lower ranks love playing the characters they know people don’t know. Pathetic really
Learn all the matchups properly instead of complaining.
Whats pathetic about it you see the negative side ur taking Ls but they lowkey teaching u the game if u pay attention enough
Yeah lets be honest, few people play Jun because they like her, most people play her because she is strong
@@martinmonroe7082 I have 2 G.O.D characters so it’s safe to say I know most matchups but I still think it’s pathetic when a dude picks up a character solely because he knows most people don’t know that specific matchup and he will get wins. Not to learn the game or to get better at the game but just for wins. I hate players like that
@@BoomtetrisforJeff ^^
15:28
I feel like the people complaining( including me) are the ones that can’t be bothered to wait 2 years for them to change the game. Especially since it was like that with every entry in series apparently, it almost like it could be predicted after 30 years and some necessary measures got taken care of beforehand.
You know the argument “this is how tekken is” seem just wrong. When Josh gets late to work cos he’s always late people won’t be putting up with that treating it as “ it’s just how Josh is”, he might get used to new working hours in a year. Josh gets fired instead. Josh needs to change yesterday if he wants to keep the job.
It’s not ‘late’ if that’s just how long fighting games take to balance out/refine themselves. Need to gather data, figure out ways to adjust mechanics and add in new ones. It’s not as if nothing happens for two years and all of a sudden new version comes out. They’re working their way to the finish line and listening to the feedback along the way.
Its impossible to predict how players will play. You can't as a developer predict a player meta. In fact, most metas come from things the developer didn't even expect. They can't magically release a perfectly balanced game on launch. No game has ever don't that; not even Chess is balanced. White has a much higher win rate than Black despite all the pieces being the same.
@@TkAnakin I hope you are right about that and they are holding off on big changes to after EVO to not shake up the meta too much messing up the pros. Id like to believe they have all the data needed to see how strong certain characters are and where they need to be tuned.
The game is extremely fun to play as and against the middle of the pack and its a shame its tainted and almost completely negated with all the stronger picks.
@@MckhusIt’s only been a couple months relax
Let's be honest this Tekken is brain dead, anyone can win on here.
It caters to noobs.
You can't play proper and optimally on here without getting over powerwd by the easy scrub moves like heatsmash
Defensive play is barely in here, pure aggression is dumb
It doesn't reward skill
I appreciate listen to Anakin's clear mindset telling it true
Coz I'm currently tilted AF RN
Coz I got T8 a week ago
And I'm disgusted by the way this Tekken is
From my perspective right now
Oooof. This has to be one of the most boring ppl to watch do anything
Just here to laugh at a load of barely teenagers still living with mummy, who are bang average at Tekken talking like theyre gonna be on TWT 🤣🤡💩🤡💩
