After watching this I broke through my Grand Master ceiling, and walked through to Fighter without much problems. This is the best content for Tekken 7. Thanks!
@@zacharysnyder5820 after putting more time into practice mode (learn new stuff and how it works) and nonranked player matches (to see if and how to implement new stuff into actual gameplay), it got much much easier. All of Framewhisperer's advice is gold here, but it takes some time to actually getting the advice into one owns gameplay. Great journey, good luck! By the way, Byakko now, hooray.
Thanks mate, I starting to play Tekken and learning Mishima since 7, now all my mishima in green, then I found I can always win or tie yellow and orange rank players, but always have issues in green rank. I think it because I'm getting used to the stick, and also Mishima's execution. And I play and learn other characters for the matchup, and it's just feel so easy to get a yellow rank with all others lol. Now half of my cast is green rank. I think it is time for me to bring Mishima to Yellow. And also thanks for those guides, epecially for Leo, Bob, Jack. And just watched the Gigas guide, will try Gigas tonight to the green. Cheers mate. 大変、ありがとうございました
Gratz on the milestone! Getting out of greens is a serious grind for me atm. Your vids have helped me and your explanations are always on point. Keep at it!
5K man... Congrats... Thank you so much for information through the time I have seen you... You are a big help to all of us n we appreciate your advice
I hover between juggernaut and vanquisher right now after around 4 months of this game. I felt like it is kinda easy to do combos, but literally everything else is really hard and feels very accomplishing to learn. I have to say this game is the best pvp experience I've had yet. yes there are toxic online warriors, I actually fucked up my finger because I was really salty because of the game, and sometimes online is not that great but goddamn if any game is worth learning it is this one. you'll always learn each time you play, you feel yourself growing, getting faster and better. It is really an experience I would have missed.
I've learned a lot from you bro. I feel a lot more confident when I play Tekken because I understand the game mechanics a lot more. Thanks you've earned a sub
my tip for beginners is DON'T PICK A HARD CHARACTER, this is: Steve, Hworang, Mishimas, Akuma or Nina. If you are a beginner, what you don't need is to learn the hard way, pick a rounded character like Law, Paul, King, Katarina, Claudio, Lars or Shaheen, you will learn sooo much faster to punish, to combo, to mix up, etc. If the enemy player is -15 do a f*cking hopkick, not a just frame electrick.
FrameWhisperer Tekken yeah, it's common to say "pick always the character you love" but that is bullcrap. Back in TTT2 I loved Steve and mishimas and they brought me nothing but tears and rage in green ranks against Asukas or Lilis.
Pick anyone really, some of these hard characters a simple gameplan to an extent, Kazuya has few moves, which means less studying, and more execution practice. Hwoarang is easy to pick up but hard to master.
Congrats on 5k subs. On to the next 5000.... Here’s my question....does offline rating matter at all? I am currently ‘tekken god prime’ offline (cos i dont get much online play...internet connection is 3 bars at best) but i know i’ll probably be a yellow rank online
Harold Nixon offline rank pretty much says that u have enough experience on with ur character that u wont miss combos etc when u play against human opponents. Thats my opinion and what i think the offline rank grinding is useful for. Unlike practice mode, with a bot opponent, u will be finding urself in many different scenarios such as different ranges from the wall, wall splat angles etc.
Just one thing, what turned me from an american scrub to someone whos more knowledgeable than almost any other american on tekken, was simply realizing that every action has consistent frame data, even movements, parrys, armor, crush some examples are you need at least 6 frames to sidestep anything, so if ur at -4 after getting hit u can normally sidestep jabs, low crush needs 9 frames to activate, high crush needs 4 frames, mid crush 8 frames, ducking is 1 frame, etc etc, this is how u break down your offensive 5050s to make sure they cant do certain options so this is also how you move around your opponent and defend yourself as a result, makes it alot easier to start practicing movement when youre not getting hit for sidestepping randomly and getting 100% of the time because you dont have at least 6 frames, theres multiple aspects and reasons as to why things happen like the natural tracking or realignment etc, but to do something in this game u need to at least know how fast what ur doing starts ups so u know when u can use it P.S. If youre playing on a tv, especially non main brand or large, you probably need to look at a gaming monitor, I personally have a 39 in westinghouse tv and i hooked my laptop to test my picture delay as my tv has no game mode in picture settings, i recorded 2-4 extra frames of picture delay at all times, this is a huge problem, it affects all reactions, timings, literally everything, so there might be some hardware issues affecting your gameplay, though a low battery on controller or a charging ds4 controller, and your tv, are by far the biggest ones, and the ones u need to worry about, just make sure ur on game mode, or have a gaming monitor, and make sure your ds4 controller is on 2 or 3 bars of power and is not plugged into the ps4(has more lag plugged in than wireless), one other thing is the ps4 pro does potentially add an extra frame of input delay at 8.4f instead of the ps4s 7.6, so maybe if u have both choose the regular, but i doubt it would really matter.
Yeah I definitely have a hard time with getting above juggarnaut. I’ve been close to usurper at times but I then get demoted to warrior and back to juggarnaut within the same hour
It's so hard when you don't get anywhere. I've been playing offline for years, arcade ghost mode and such, at the hardest difficulty and as soon as I was able to play online I hit an impenetrable brick wall. Still no way near initiate rank and I have almost given up trying too many times. Hopefully this video will help my current situation thanks.
I was the complete noob when i picked heihachi...t7 is the first fighting game for me..after 6 month i am jaggurnaut ..i can do ddewgf pewgf(kaz)..but still lot to learn..what i am saying is you can pick any character as the noob ever the mishimas..at that time i was not aware of the fact that mishimas are hardest
Tips really do help alot. Learned a decent amount of things from your videos. I was wondering would it be possible for you to do a Lars video. I know a few months ago you did a Lars guide, but i like to see you use Lars and online rank or player match to see how to use Lars against good people. Like for example, when to go in to attack, perfect timing to use art blast etc.. you did videos for Katarina, Josie and Chloe. Would like to see some more Lars gameplay.
FrameWhisperer Tekken lol I'm a Lars main and I'm still trying to figure him out. i played T6 and TT2 with him but not seriously. So in T7 is the first time I'm truly taking this seriously with Lars.
I made it to byakko and I can't kbd, or break throws that great, or sidestep, and I suck at blocking lows. I honestly don't know where to go from here. I'm okish at punishing. My combos are carrying me
I dont even like fighting games.but i tried playing tekken 7 and watched your miguel tutorial and ranked matches.now im at vanguard ! Hahah i know its not so high but thanks a lot bro! Gonna keep climbing the rank of i can hahah
Juggernaut hwoarang here. I promoted last night and i feel like I havent plateaud yet. I always have ggs with destroyers so I feel like I should be able to get there at least. Been stuck at vanguard/warrior, for a while but I evolved and got super technical with hwo. I duck punish highs a lot and im learning stick atm
It's pretty insane how much tekken you learn just from watching videos or watching tournaments. I haven't been able to play tekken all week, but somehow I'm better than the last time I played, just from watching pros and thinking about how I need to incorporate more movement into my gameplay. I've finally made it to the vindicator. I'd like to give you credit as well man, watching your guides helps me understand how other characters work, which helps me understand how to beat them. Keep up the good work, I want to see you hit 10k now brother.
Soo basically lab matchups, to tighten my punishment, and throw breaks, to the point it’s automatic. Is the only way to get out of Raijin? Since I can already reactive to lows and know matchups? Man iv been stuck in The Raijin ranks for years now, honestly thought I’ll be stuck there for ever.
nice but different regions have different difficulty curves USA seems to be easiest to rank up on (due to population) where AUS and EU seems to be either you are good or bad no in-between
Bro your a God send, what are the odds that when I chose to take this game seriously you came along. I love all your vids, I've become so much better. I only wish you the best. And thank you so much for covering Josie. She's my main and I just gravitated towards her. It's not easy but im glad to be on this ride. Keep up the great work brother
I don't know if it's just my luck for smurfs or what but I'm in green ranks and 70% of the time it feels like I am fighting someone who should be in yellow or orange ranks. Now that I saw this video I am certain of it. Is this happening to me only? I'm on PC.
I started playing T7 a month and a half ago and hit like a week ago, but I still can’t get any better :/ Also I can only play Hwoarang, when I try to pick someone else up I just fail. Does someone have any tips?
I would say keep playing, change comes slowly so you don't notice it over short periods time. Sort of like how you never notice your own hair getting longer. Hwoarang has a very large moveset and many stances so if you want something more straightforward try Miguel, Katarina, Kazumi, Shaheen, Alisa, Claudio or Lars.
haha of course you'd say that. I appreciate it though. It's just frustrating being a 17'er coming from 2D fighters, when I've learned all my combos and frame data and still get totally crushed by blue and green ranks... Really feels like I'm just not sure what I'm losing to a lot of the time since my matchup knowledge is so low. Still going to take notes from this vid and try and improve the only way I can... by getting my ass beat :P
Important to note that a bigger congratulations is awarded to those of you who obtain orange ranks with mishimas/Nina/yoshi/jin/hwoarang/Bryan due to their high execution requirements, difficulty with movement and cancellations, and high averages of dropped combos. You’ve reached the equivalent of saviour with characters like katarina/Chloe/alisa/Miguel/law/asuka/lili.
I cant even get above 1st dan 😂 i knw how to KBDC and combos are pretty decent too i dont get less than 50 dmg and max dmg that i managed was 74.. and i use draganov (20% of times i can land a crouch dash cancel as well).. what am i lacking at
Agent 47 might just be a matchup issue. how’s your knowledge of Dragunov? do you know which moves are safe/launchers/counter hits? sometimes advancing above these ranks is less about knowing your offense and more about your defence and punish game.
@@smudgetk7178 I am still gaining knowledge of my character. I practiced offline for almst 2-3 weeks before going online. Offline and online matches are two entirely different things. I guess my main issue is that i have adjusted to offline gameplay thays why i face difficulties online. With time it will improve..
No, I think he is very strong as is. I'm no expert but I think practicing your hook fist and playing defensively are good general tips for Jin. Also use a lot of Demon Paw, the move is amazing.
But he's so impractical relative to the rest of the roster. If you don't have the knowledge you might as well lie down. I think his infamous line "power is everything" is subliminally referring to knowledge is power. He's honest in a very dishonest game, I think he needs some gimmick cause it's stressful and favoritism in this game seems pointless because it doesn't seem so balanced and so playing it is pointless. Yes, i'm salty. Tekken can be very annoying and incomprehensible.
TheWisdomOfSilenus my Jin is at vanquisher and i feel like he has an answer for almost anything as an exchange for the lack of "wtf" moves. Also has a very decent punish game. Imo jin also shines when you are able to utilise his slower moves like f+4. Also jin isnt a character that you can just play without warm-up. Do a few player matches or spend 5 minutes on practice mode to warm up.
You should block it and then launch. It is -19 if I remember correctly, so any character can do it. If it is interrupting you a lot, try to attack less and waiting for your chance.
depends really. my advice is play who u like.i used to main jin when i first started, but i ended up using devil jin, then asuka, then king, then armor king. tastes change as u get better. i still use jin pretty well too
@@style_boi7099 I've been faithful to jin for a long time man I've been playing him since tekken 4 he just feels so different in tekken 7 last game I played other than 7 was 6 on the psp
I think the problem people don't get with throw breaks is that it's not a matter of reflexes, it's a matter of how long it takes your brain to make a decision. When you first start playing, it isn't that you are not fast enough to hit the button it's that it's taking your brain too long to decide what button to hit. With experience you'll start to recognize the animation faster and making that decision way faster.
You are a extremely underrated source for Tekken knowledge. If Salami doesn't cover the character I turn to you. Even when he does your input is very good. Chloe has become my strong secondary because your guide. I look forward to all your knowledge keep up the great work!
omg.. i was smashing my room up, no idea where to focus my energy, watching so many bs videos.. then this.. you made it so simple and made me feel like it was worth the effort. you are a legend!
First of all, I gotta give you credit for your content. I really like everything I've clicked on. You articulate yourself very well, you don't really go off on a tangent and you explain 1 thing from a couple of angles which is good. Great structure too which makes them easy to digest. You may put some folks to sleep tho haha As someone who's reached Orange ranks time ago, I watched this purely to see if your experience was similar to my own. I went through all these stages you mentioned while playing TTT2 ranked and by god is this accurate. I'm literally here to say that this vid is 100% accurate in my experience when I look back on my journey through and to orange ranks. If your "Tekken Concept" vids were around like 4/5 years ago, I'd have progressed much quicker instead of learning through trial and error in Ranked battles. Keep up the great content. Peace!
IMO you are amongst the top Tekken RUclipsrs right now that new players should be watching, always great content and you are very articulate. One thing that personally helped me at lower ranks was an awareness of frame traps or CH setups/fishing, both recognising when it was being done to me and I shouldn't press a button, or a doing it to other people.
Hey there. I love the video. US Army Soldier here and the comment about being in Basic Training/Boot Camp is pretty spot on. In Basic Training, you are basically broken down and learn to let go of bad habits and things that you are used to going your way don't happen. I've gone from Warrior to Grand Master and back at least 3 times. Grinding through the Green Ranks really taught me about patience and having a plan. Also thanks for the Josie video. I've picked her up since launch and I'm well on my way. Thank you sir =]
Finally made it to Vindicator using Asuka, that's after learning from many of your videos. I still can't block lows or break throws because of my bad reaction and not enough time to practice - but the game knowledge and concept I learned on this channel really allowed me to enjoy the game at a different level. Thank you and I expect this channel to grow even further.
I just started playing a few days ago, and even though I am a scrub in the dans, I still found the video very enjoyable to watch. Also, thanks for the Kuma guide, I watched it several times already while practicing in the practice mode :)
This video is just what I need. I've owned every tekken since the first and I still don't know much about frame data and stuff like that. It's only since T7 i've started to show some interest and finding online ranked matches to be pretty hard. I've got to work on a lot of things but I don't really have the time to commit to the game these days.
Another great video. Almost motivational for me. I’ve been playing tekken since the first installation. Tekken 6 was the first time I played tekken online and it blew me away how deep the game was. However, in T7, I’m stuck in the Green Rank Grind. Today most Green Rankers have plateaued with their main characters in higher ranks, and now use secondary characters. So Green Ranks is a war zone. And yes, I going to ask again for a lee tutorial.
That is true. Lately I'm noticing that low rank players usually have a high rank main and it is getting harder. That can also mean you get more chances to learn against advanced players, so it's not all bad!
Agreed, green ranks contains a lot of people who have higher characters and are working on secondary characters, as well as people that have spent TONS of time bouncing between yellow/high green with 500/1000/1500 wins etc. And as you said, it is a true "Warzone". Since the game has been out a good while now, all those people who were trying to learn or refusing to change their ways have given up, and all that remains are the people who are dedicated in trying to climb the ladder. I have 1 character in yellows and 3 in greens and I almost never run into anyone who is "free". Worst thing is some people that are just sick of losing at this point will pull out the cheesiest online tactics if you get ahead of them and spam their most hated "secret discord tech" they can get their hands on! Sigh. The battle continues!
Matt Gade Couldn’t agree more! All the fat has been trimmed. You can tell by the facts: there are a lot less akuma players, I’m starting to notice I’m playing the same players more often, there are grandmasters trucking me with only 4 wins, there are grandmasters trucking me with 435 wins. I’d say 65-75% of the casual consumer has left the tekken. What’s left is dedicated players, experienced players, and players that are good to great at fundamentals. All my wars are fought in green ranks. At this point i don’t care about the ranks because they mean very little.
I can't escape the teal ranks forever bounced between mentor and 2nd Dan. You still need so much knowledge of other characters in order to succeed. Rush down characters almost feel impossible to beat if you don't know the frames or when or how to interrupt.
Tekken pic, soul calibur music, beautiful face, and soothing voice.

Aaaaaahahahahahaha
What's the SC track called?
At last.... The time has come. This video will be the one... the one that will get me to initiate.
You can do it mate. Just breathe and focus!
Just gotta figure out the fastest way to demote from Vindicator lul.
hahahah nice one
That was good shit,stay hydrated
Lol
-Attack after blocking
-Learn combos
-Memorize safe moves
-Avoid character hopping
I do none of that!
That's why I'm initiate... xD
After watching this I broke through my Grand Master ceiling, and walked through to Fighter without much problems. This is the best content for Tekken 7. Thanks!
Coming back to this again and again, first time Overlord now. Thanks man.
@@jakobp.preisenberger189 congrats man! I just started on my journey, hoping to be up in the green ranks soon too
@@zacharysnyder5820 after putting more time into practice mode (learn new stuff and how it works) and nonranked player matches (to see if and how to implement new stuff into actual gameplay), it got much much easier.

By the way, Byakko now, hooray.
@@jakobp.preisenberger189 GG mate. Let's keep the climb goin each!

いええ、こちらこそ！頑張れ！
I’ve learned a lot from you by far so subscribing to you was the best thing I did for my tekken gameplay . Really glad to finally see this video
Thanks!!!
I fully agree with that statement!!! I'd also add that enabling notations on the tutorials would be incredibly useful :D
Your work really is incredible. You have a love for this community and it shows.
congrats on 5k!!! one of the best tutorial channels by far, deserved :)
Btw What's the background music? I recognise the game and I'm getting mad nostalgia but I don't remember what it's from
ayy I remembered it's SC5
Thanks a lot mate! Yes, character select from SC5
"I've broken one of my play station controller at one point" I feel you man.. I feel you.
Soul Calibur V theme in the background. Oh i miss those days... Great stuff btw!
I absolutely love this channel. The information here is priceless. I know I'll break out of green ranks soon, all I need is time. Thank you!
Gratz on the milestone! Getting out of greens is a serious grind for me atm. Your vids have helped me and your explanations are always on point.
Keep at it!
Thanks a lot mate, warms my heart!
Well done on 5k, I love your vids, they're really well made.
Thank you!
Imo the Mishimas are good to learn too because if you can play well with them you’re good at tekken
Alot of videos show the technical side to things and as a beginner I find it difficult to know where to start. Thanks for this vid alot!
You deserve many more subs. You have some of the best Tekken videos. Stick at it and I'm sure you'll get many more subs.
Just found this. Can’t express how helpful it is. Gives a very clear path to improvement. ❤

The first serious advices I found up to now. Thx man!
This video helped me a lot. Just broke through the green ranks and I hope become a better player with your tips!
Congrats on the 5k, keep it up 👏🏻
I've learned a lot from you bro. I feel a lot more confident when I play Tekken because I understand the game mechanics a lot more. Thanks you've earned a sub
my tip for beginners is DON'T PICK A HARD CHARACTER, this is: Steve, Hworang, Mishimas, Akuma or Nina. If you are a beginner, what you don't need is to learn the hard way, pick a rounded character like Law, Paul, King, Katarina, Claudio, Lars or Shaheen, you will learn sooo much faster to punish, to combo, to mix up, etc. If the enemy player is -15 do a f*cking hopkick, not a just frame electrick.
I would add Lee to the list of hard characters. That's a somewhat controversial opinion though.
FrameWhisperer Tekken yeah, it's common to say "pick always the character you love" but that is bullcrap. Back in TTT2 I loved Steve and mishimas and they brought me nothing but tears and rage in green ranks against Asukas or Lilis.
zation0069 it should be "pick a character you like EXCEPT for.."
zation0069 My first two Characters were Steve and Hwoarang. Heheh. And Steve is STILL my main. Let's hope I can hit Warrior soon.
Pick anyone really, some of these hard characters a simple gameplan to an extent, Kazuya has few moves, which means less studying, and more execution practice. Hwoarang is easy to pick up but hard to master.
Trying to pick the game up this late, I'm gonna need all the help I can get. Thanks a TON for these videos
This... Is an amazing video. Looking forward to more from this channel.
Congrats on 5k subs. On to the next 5000....
Here’s my question....does offline rating matter at all? I am currently ‘tekken god prime’ offline (cos i dont get much online play...internet connection is 3 bars at best) but i know i’ll probably be a yellow rank online

This made me feel pretty good considering I swindled my way to orange ranks with Alisa shenanigans.
Just one thing, what turned me from an american scrub to someone whos more knowledgeable than almost any other american on tekken, was simply realizing that every action has consistent frame data, even movements, parrys, armor, crush some examples are you need at least 6 frames to sidestep anything, so if ur at -4 after getting hit u can normally sidestep jabs, low crush needs 9 frames to activate, high crush needs 4 frames, mid crush 8 frames, ducking is 1 frame, etc etc, this is how u break down your offensive 5050s to make sure they cant do certain options so this is also how you move around your opponent and defend yourself as a result, makes it alot easier to start practicing movement when youre not getting hit for sidestepping randomly and getting 100% of the time because you dont have at least 6 frames, theres multiple aspects and reasons as to why things happen like the natural tracking or realignment etc, but to do something in this game u need to at least know how fast what ur doing starts ups so u know when u can use it
P.S. If youre playing on a tv, especially non main brand or large, you probably need to look at a gaming monitor, I personally have a 39 in westinghouse tv and i hooked my laptop to test my picture delay as my tv has no game mode in picture settings, i recorded 2-4 extra frames of picture delay at all times, this is a huge problem, it affects all reactions, timings, literally everything, so there might be some hardware issues affecting your gameplay, though a low battery on controller or a charging ds4 controller, and your tv, are by far the biggest ones, and the ones u need to worry about, just make sure ur on game mode, or have a gaming monitor, and make sure your ds4 controller is on 2 or 3 bars of power and is not plugged into the ps4(has more lag plugged in than wireless), one other thing is the ps4 pro does potentially add an extra frame of input delay at 8.4f instead of the ps4s 7.6, so maybe if u have both choose the regular, but i doubt it would really matter.

Yeah I definitely have a hard time with getting above juggarnaut. I’ve been close to usurper at times but I then get demoted to warrior and back to juggarnaut within the same hour

Soo basically lab matchups, to tighten my punishment, and throw breaks, to the point it’s automatic. Is the only way to get out of Raijin? Since I can already reactive to lows and know matchups? Man iv been stuck in The Raijin ranks for years now, honestly thought I’ll be stuck there for ever.
nice but different regions have different difficulty curves USA seems to be easiest to rank up on (due to population) where AUS and EU seems to be either you are good or bad no in-between
I once got vanquisher, but now im stuck at usurper as alisa
Bro your a God send, what are the odds that when I chose to take this game seriously you came along. I love all your vids, I've become so much better. I only wish you the best. And thank you so much for covering Josie. She's my main and I just gravitated towards her. It's not easy but im glad to be on this ride. Keep up the great work brother
I don't know if it's just my luck for smurfs or what but I'm in green ranks and 70% of the time it feels like I am fighting someone who should be in yellow or orange ranks. Now that I saw this video I am certain of it. Is this happening to me only? I'm on PC.
Good job
I bounce between Initiate and Mentor
thankyou very much. well done
I started playing T7 a month and a half ago and hit like a week ago, but I still can’t get any better :/ Also I can only play Hwoarang, when I try to pick someone else up I just fail. Does someone have any tips?
I would say keep playing, change comes slowly so you don't notice it over short periods time. Sort of like how you never notice your own hair getting longer. Hwoarang has a very large moveset and many stances so if you want something more straightforward try Miguel, Katarina, Kazumi, Shaheen, Alisa, Claudio or Lars.
86 hours into the game and I'm still 2nd dan... Should I just give up forever?
Of course not, get back to me at 860 hours haha! You can do it!
haha of course you'd say that. I appreciate it though.
It's just frustrating being a 17'er coming from 2D fighters, when I've learned all my combos and frame data and still get totally crushed by blue and green ranks... Really feels like I'm just not sure what I'm losing to a lot of the time since my matchup knowledge is so low.
Still going to take notes from this vid and try and improve the only way I can... by getting my ass beat :P
How do you delay moves? Sometimrs i get lucky byt i cant get it consistently :(
Only a few moves can be delayed, and they all have different timing. You just gotta practice the timing of your specific move a lot.
Hopefully this gets me to 2nd Dan
Yh I'm stuck at vanguard I constantly get demoted back to fighter rank and promoted again I can't reach warrior rank :/
How to improve at tekken, well that is easy, whenever you see some absolutely broken bs, just chant "It is what it is".
So you’re telling me....I shouldn’t mash 1 and 2?
I'm at Vanquisher and I can't react to lows lol
Important to note that a bigger congratulations is awarded to those of you who obtain orange ranks with mishimas/Nina/yoshi/jin/hwoarang/Bryan due to their high execution requirements, difficulty with movement and cancellations, and high averages of dropped combos. You’ve reached the equivalent of saviour with characters like katarina/Chloe/alisa/Miguel/law/asuka/lili.
I learned KBD on green ranks, I'm on Fighter rn. Highest rank Vanguard, not the best KBD but still kinda reasonable.
Juggernaut now
I cant even get above 1st dan 😂 i knw how to KBDC and combos are pretty decent too i dont get less than 50 dmg and max dmg that i managed was 74.. and i use draganov (20% of times i can land a crouch dash cancel as well).. what am i lacking at
Agent 47 might just be a matchup issue. how’s your knowledge of Dragunov? do you know which moves are safe/launchers/counter hits? sometimes advancing above these ranks is less about knowing your offense and more about your defence and punish game.
@@smudgetk7178 I am still gaining knowledge of my character. I practiced offline for almst 2-3 weeks before going online. Offline and online matches are two entirely different things. I guess my main issue is that i have adjusted to offline gameplay thays why i face difficulties online. With time it will improve..
This is great. Thanks.
Nice video about Tekken 7. I'm on Grand Master level. I can go even highter with Heihachi. I' almost mastered heihachi with muscle memory.
It’s been one month. What rank are you now ?
@@boudou04 I'm at Red Rank "Overlord" now. But i stopt playing Tekken 7. Because i'm playing The Last of Us now. Soon I will train again..
Correction: Orange rank Overlord.
Frans Reawaroe ah nice nice
@@boudou04 What are you at with Tekken 7? Are you a student of TMM?
you're perfect!
Do you think Jin needs buffs? He feels like he belongs in another series. I'm Vindicator with him btw.
No, I think he is very strong as is. I'm no expert but I think practicing your hook fist and playing defensively are good general tips for Jin. Also use a lot of Demon Paw, the move is amazing.
Jin is considered A-tier by pros, as far as I've read.
But he's so impractical relative to the rest of the roster. If you don't have the knowledge you might as well lie down. I think his infamous line "power is everything" is subliminally referring to knowledge is power. He's honest in a very dishonest game, I think he needs some gimmick cause it's stressful and favoritism in this game seems pointless because it doesn't seem so balanced and so playing it is pointless. Yes, i'm salty. Tekken can be very annoying and incomprehensible.
Swan Scream What position in the tier list would be A tier to you? Mid or High? And out of how many tiers?
TheWisdomOfSilenus my Jin is at vanquisher and i feel like he has an answer for almost anything as an exchange for the lack of "wtf" moves. Also has a very decent punish game.
Imo jin also shines when you are able to utilise his slower moves like f+4. Also jin isnt a character that you can just play without warm-up. Do a few player matches or spend 5 minutes on practice mode to warm up.
didn't know Neuer was so good at Tekken...
How to beat Feng? I keep eating that fast shoulder charge thing lol.
Don't whiff. Block that shoulder and you should be able to launch him.
Mid90sKN 1 Think of it like Paul's deathfist. Try your hardest to make sure you hit and make contact. If you miss you'll take big damage.
You should block it and then launch. It is -19 if I remember correctly, so any character can do it. If it is interrupting you a lot, try to attack less and waiting for your chance.
All great answers, will surely try it out with my Vindicator Miguel. :D
Would jin be considered a bad beginner character?
depends really. my advice is play who u like.i used to main jin when i first started, but i ended up using devil jin, then asuka, then king, then armor king. tastes change as u get better. i still use jin pretty well too
@@style_boi7099 I've been faithful to jin for a long time man I've been playing him since tekken 4 he just feels so different in tekken 7 last game I played other than 7 was 6 on the psp
@@danielcuevas1384 yeah he requires alot of adjusting in terms of combos but he's about the same overall in game plan for me. he's rlly strong!
just got demoted from Vanquisher to Juggernaut yesterday :(
I think the problem people don't get with throw breaks is that it's not a matter of reflexes, it's a matter of how long it takes your brain to make a decision. When you first start playing, it isn't that you are not fast enough to hit the button it's that it's taking your brain too long to decide what button to hit. With experience you'll start to recognize the animation faster and making that decision way faster.
You literally just described reflexes.
Bro I’m 3 months in and I can’t break 1+2 throws for my life I’m in orange and get farmed by king
You are a extremely underrated source for Tekken knowledge. If Salami doesn't cover the character I turn to you. Even when he does your input is very good. Chloe has become my strong secondary because your guide. I look forward to all your knowledge keep up the great work!
Congrats on that 5k lad. Been silently watching your stuff - it really helped me out and I'm still learning a lot from you. Keep it up.
omg.. i was smashing my room up, no idea where to focus my energy, watching so many bs videos.. then this.. you made it so simple and made me feel like it was worth the effort. you are a legend!
The game makes us angry but that's also a chance to work on things like patience and acceptance mate. Good luck!
Best tekken channel on youtube imo
Wow, thanks a lot!
First of all, I gotta give you credit for your content. I really like everything I've clicked on. You articulate yourself very well, you don't really go off on a tangent and you explain 1 thing from a couple of angles which is good. Great structure too which makes them easy to digest. You may put some folks to sleep tho haha
As someone who's reached Orange ranks time ago, I watched this purely to see if your experience was similar to my own. I went through all these stages you mentioned while playing TTT2 ranked and by god is this accurate.
I'm literally here to say that this vid is 100% accurate in my experience when I look back on my journey through and to orange ranks. If your "Tekken Concept" vids were around like 4/5 years ago, I'd have progressed much quicker instead of learning through trial and error in Ranked battles.
Keep up the great content. Peace!
Thanks a lot for commenting mate, glad you enjoy my stuff!
IMO you are amongst the top Tekken RUclipsrs right now that new players should be watching, always great content and you are very articulate. One thing that personally helped me at lower ranks was an awareness of frame traps or CH setups/fishing, both recognising when it was being done to me and I shouldn't press a button, or a doing it to other people.
Thanks a lot for your kind comment mate!
Timestamps would be helpful.
Hey there. I love the video. US Army Soldier here and the comment about being in Basic Training/Boot Camp is pretty spot on. In Basic Training, you are basically broken down and learn to let go of bad habits and things that you are used to going your way don't happen. I've gone from Warrior to Grand Master and back at least 3 times. Grinding through the Green Ranks really taught me about patience and having a plan. Also thanks for the Josie video. I've picked her up since launch and I'm well on my way. Thank you sir =]
I'm glad the comment didn't offend! Good luck mate, just stick with it and try to have fun and change will come with time. Thank you for your support!
Congratulations! I think your guides are the better ones and deserves more recognition! It surely had helped me become a better player. Cheers!
Thanks a lot!!!
Finally made it to Vindicator using Asuka, that's after learning from many of your videos. I still can't block lows or break throws because of my bad reaction and not enough time to practice - but the game knowledge and concept I learned on this channel really allowed me to enjoy the game at a different level. Thank you and I expect this channel to grow even further.
5k YOOOO you deserve that man! even more... like... 10times more! also shoutouts to your mom, a subbing mom, is a loving mom
Wow, thanks a lot! Glad you enjoy my stuff!
That SCV Character Selection screen BGM, good choice... A very informative video.
Thanks a lot for watching!
I just started playing a few days ago, and even though I am a scrub in the dans, I still found the video very enjoyable to watch. Also, thanks for the Kuma guide, I watched it several times already while practicing in the practice mode :)
This video is just what I need. I've owned every tekken since the first and I still don't know much about frame data and stuff like that. It's only since T7 i've started to show some interest and finding online ranked matches to be pretty hard. I've got to work on a lot of things but I don't really have the time to commit to the game these days.
Take it at your own pace mate. If you can spend a couple of hours every week in practice mode it will make a big difference.
Took me 10 mins to realize the music was from soul caliber
Another great video. Almost motivational for me. I’ve been playing tekken since the first installation. Tekken 6 was the first time I played tekken online and it blew me away how deep the game was. However, in T7, I’m stuck in the Green Rank Grind. Today most Green Rankers have plateaued with their main characters in higher ranks, and now use secondary characters. So Green Ranks is a war zone.
And yes, I going to ask again for a lee tutorial.
That is true. Lately I'm noticing that low rank players usually have a high rank main and it is getting harder. That can also mean you get more chances to learn against advanced players, so it's not all bad!
Agreed, green ranks contains a lot of people who have higher characters and are working on secondary characters, as well as people that have spent TONS of time bouncing between yellow/high green with 500/1000/1500 wins etc. And as you said, it is a true "Warzone".
Since the game has been out a good while now, all those people who were trying to learn or refusing to change their ways have given up, and all that remains are the people who are dedicated in trying to climb the ladder. I have 1 character in yellows and 3 in greens and I almost never run into anyone who is "free". Worst thing is some people that are just sick of losing at this point will pull out the cheesiest online tactics if you get ahead of them and spam their most hated "secret discord tech" they can get their hands on! Sigh. The battle continues!
Played you yesterday.I forgot how the games went,but I remember your name.
Matt Gade
Couldn’t agree more! All the fat has been trimmed. You can tell by the facts: there are a lot less akuma players, I’m starting to notice I’m playing the same players more often, there are grandmasters trucking me with only 4 wins, there are grandmasters trucking me with 435 wins.
I’d say 65-75% of the casual consumer has left the tekken. What’s left is dedicated players, experienced players, and players that are good to great at fundamentals.
All my wars are fought in green ranks. At this point i don’t care about the ranks because they mean very little.
Novajed
If it was me you either played Lars or feng
Subbed to you as soon as you respected your mom
I am happy yesterday I saw your name in Evo Japan 2019. I will take a day off and watch your match. We are here to give you support keep on going. :)
I can't escape the teal ranks forever bounced between mentor and 2nd Dan. You still need so much knowledge of other characters in order to succeed. Rush down characters almost feel impossible to beat if you don't know the frames or when or how to interrupt.
Mishimas are easy on keyboard / hitbox / mibox
