Character Types That Get Nothing But Disrespect

- Today we're talking about why you get so much disrespect because of the character you use. You're probably wondering why because you're not playing a top tier. Sometimes, its not a top tier that people dislike the most. Let me know what you guys think in the comments section below.

Nothing gives me more anxiety in Tekken than seeing Lars figure skating with electricity crackling around his body.
😂😂😂
He has paid for his Beyblade power by getting cursed with that hairstyle.
Figure skating with electricity 😂
I can't even be mad at longtime Lars mains because they deserved a break after TTT2 and T7
I want Johnny Cage to stay top tier because the idea that the strongest character in mortal kombat is some hollywood action star is funny.
As johnny cage main I agree but...everyone else sucks.
Mk1 is the first game which I don't like it's subzero and scorpion.
if only they worked on a better balance like tekken 8
I miss Subzero and Scorpion's original move set, and thus far the only character I can fuck with in MK1 is Omni Man. Hopefully, my girl, Jade, will play well. @@deathshot2101

People hate every characters except the one's they play..
Exactly. It's not any deeper than this😂
Not true because they will also say that their main is weaker than they are. Get good....😂
I hate fighting Feng too. Sh*ts a nightmare.
I feel like when i lose to bryan, Kazuya, Jack, leroy and Bear its because they r better than me
Yeah, 70% of the FGC is exactly this.
It's Tekken 8 -- every character is a problem character.
Except my main🤓
except claudio and steve
ainoway, it is only true for my main
This is the best reply I've seen this week 😂
Nah, Kaz, Bryan, Paul aren’t even in the same conversation as Victor, Lara, Alisa and the bears. It’s not Tekken 8, it’s the characters.
I don’t care how good feng and drag are, I prefer playing them ANY day over the ones mentioned above, cause at least I’m still playing Tekken.
My Dad whooped my ass with Bison
You have a great father 😅😅😂😂😂
“For him he’s my son, I? his father… but for me it was just a Tuesday”
Your Dad is awesome.
I like Bison as an all around evil villain, but I hate that I can't play as him, because I can't play charge characters.
@@kzakulenga5138For him, the day his Dad whooped his ass, was the best day of his life. For his Father, it was Tuesday.
I'd rather fight any character you mentioned over Hwoarang . Not countering Hwoarang properly means he traps you in infinite pressure the entire match and that's extremely obnoxious.
You can't hope to beat hwoarang without ducking his highs
@@first_among_synthers damn you like getting plus framed by fengs? LOL i'd play against hwoarangs than feng whore mains
@@first_among_synthers sidestep
Also, Alisa is widely considered to be a top tier atm lmao, and has been considered high tier since T7 season 4.
You think so? How so?
Alisa main here. I don't listen what people say about her too x D
I mean if u have fun with her then that's all that matters😊
Do you actually enjoy playing her? Not to disrespect just curious ngl everytime i can see that my opponent doesnt how to deal with her moves
Honestly hate alisa
THEY MAIN ALISA.. GET EM' *grabs Shotty*
Same. She's been my main ever she got introduced in T6 and I'll always love her. Alisa mains rise up!!
The issue with Johnny isn’t his plus frames, it’s just that no one else can truly contest him aside from Peacemaker, which makes MK1 dull.
That’s what I’ve been saying but the main narrative in mk1 is to just water characters down to make it fair to the casuals
@@angel2x813 I said that as well especially when cyrax was nerfed. The Kameos were never the issue it was character balance.
@@just_2swiftits both
@@OctopusH2O it's not
@@just_2swiftKameos is a dog water mechanic that made NRS water down half the cast to justify the existence of kameos which in turn leads to and or emphasizes just how unbalanced this trash game is

Some characters absolutely need a kameo to feel complete … it’s def both
Any character can be deemed annoying by any player. Moral of the story, ignore losers and enjoy the characters you love
hwoarangs actually gonna get even more nerfs i saw in the file leaks he gets in a motorcycle accident and gets crippled its over for us flamingo mains..💔💔
Started playing Alisa because she’s just a cute fun robot and the amount of hate mail I’ve gotten is insane. Sometimes I’ll take it easy on people because I’m a way higher rank and just try to have fun but when they win, they send me messages calling me trash, which makes me just wanna thrash my enemies and not take the game lightly at all. NGL it’s jaded me.
Cute fun robo waifu is why I play her too. This guy is just full of salt. "Cheap!" "Braindead!" 🙄 Grow up dude.
I used to play nice too. Now I've been going full blast, no mercy mode. Doing all Alisa's taunts and everything.
The comp community is full of weak whiny adult children who need to blame someone or something for their L's
@@Scutter17 that’s where I’m headed at the moment lol
Clearly you guys didn't get to the end of the video cos I said keep playing the characters that make you happy and don't worry about people moaning at you. I'm an advocate for annoying people on games and Alisa is perfect for that, but obviously I am prone to being annoyed to (human, in case anyone didn't notice).
I'm also not part of the competitive community. I play Tekken on RUclips. I might join a tournament if it's run by people I know or online, but that's about it.
FENG HAS A SORE BACK FROM CARRYING XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
true now he been nerf and they will cry
As someone that plays Two Characters Hated by the Tekken Snobs, I can say that I really don't give a Flying Fuck what they think and enjoy playing and Versing both of them.
The trouble is that not everyone has a Thick Skin and feels pressured into playing an "Honest" aka "Boring to play" imo Character to feel accepted as a Tekken Player.
This is "Tekken" it is not "Mishimas, Bryan & Steve The Game" The sooner players accept that. The Happier we will all be.
Reveal your characters to us *holds swarm back*
But that's the right mentality. Who cares what people think? We all sh*t on certain characters but that shouldn't stop anyone using them.
@@RealMikeHollow I main Zafina, and Alisa is my secondary ..... They were my Team in Tag 2 when they were both nowhere near the Top Tier.
I'm a Character Loyalist and have stuck with both of them ..... Zafina is Still my Main even though Alisa is Stronger in this Game.
The problem is, we’ll never be happy because your character isn’t fun to fight, Tekken is a game routed in martial arts, the anime shit by itself isn’t the bad part but it’s when you actively stop having fun purely because of the characters mechanics is when people have a problem, and just like how you’re right to not care about what people think of you, the people who play against unfun characters to fight are right to have 0 respect for people who play said characters. Just because you don’t mind fighting them that doesn’t apply to everyone
@@ultraola4588Spoken like a True Tekken Snob ..... I have Zero Respect for players that want to cherry pick which characters are acceptable to play ..... I hate to Vs Lars, Law, Azu and Raven .... but I am man enough to still respect the players of those characters.
Jokey Banter and digs are fine but your message stinks of Serious Snobbery.
You can hate a character but to show the players of that character no respect is just sad and immature imo.
@@RenTheDragon1975 "Respect" is vague, being "man enough to still respect" could mean different things depending on the person. And no, if you're trying to enjoy playing a game and somebody plays a character that actively makes you not enjoy what you're trying to enjoy, you aren't obligated to have respect so it isn't sad and immature, to put it into perspective this is what it seems like. "You play this game to have fun, I'll play this character and ruin your fun but I don't care because I'm having fun myself. Respect me!" As I said in my original comment, the guys in question are free to not care about what people think of them, they can play the game wether they get respect or not, but the guys who are fighting them aren't obligated to respect them, that lack of obligation of respect comes from a logical place so I wouldn't say its sad or immature.
My argument is when someone can program a bot to mash one button and you’re able to legitimately level up….that is brain dead and I don’t respect those characters
I've learned to embrace my new Paul. Like you said before, I've been given this power; and I'm not letting him go. He's been my boy since T1 and his new combos are so nice lol
3:20 oh boy here we go again...... Its kind of ironic that you dont wanna say Feng is a problem character where as you are quick to say Lili is a problem character...... How many Lilis hurt you? 😂
He literally said feng was top 2 💀
It's like God only gave certain people ears on this planet. I must have outlined in multiple times that there is an argument for Feng to be Top 1 but I think he floats in the Top 3. How can I think he floats in the Top 3 and also not think he's a problem character? And for the record, Lili has been hurting me since Tekken 5... Like almost every other character in Tekken.
@@RealMikeHollow First of all yes i did hear what you said about Feng being top 3 but you didnt call him a "problem" character. Maybe I misunderstood what you mean by problem character because my idea of a problem character is a character who is extremely op like Day 1 Leroy in Tekken 7 or characters like the ones you mentioned in this vid (Alisa, Lars, Victor) because of their anime shenanigans that dont feel like Tekken. Pretty much characters that are unhealthy for the game. My bad for misunderstanding what you mean by it but just stating Lili is not a problem character. We can debate whether or not shes top/high tier (which i dont think she is) but thats a discussion for another time.....
@@RealMikeHollow i think that may be a good video subject "what makes a true problem character"
@@RealMikeHollow the point is you're making this video while playing feng lol you dont have the right to say anything about problem character LOL
playing against alisa makes me want to pull my hairs out haha
I can't watch the rest of this video simply because your voice is just too damn relaxing. Hats off to you.
Completely agree. I mained Leroy since his release on 7 and i still do today. Gave me this label playing him only cuz hes busted when i just thought he was fun and cool. He was pure gimmick and cheese, but i never cared. Remember Cyrax in Mk9 or Fujin in 11? How much trash those players received lol. But finding the OPs takes so long. Ssbu took MKLeo to win Evo with P5 joker to make people realise he was a problem. Then he got nerfed.
Funny thing about alisa is even though people are annoyed by her crazy chainsaw heat pressure, they would still be pissed on loss even if alisa player never used it.
Yeah, her whole moveset is lame in my opinion but the chainsaws make it even worse.
I use them really really rarely and still get hate messages all the time 🤷🏻♂️
@@5orrowKazama Alisa players will never escape the allegations.
Alisa gave a whole new meaning to giving head since Honda's Sumo Headbutt.
You gotta respect the creativity here...
But on a serious note, I got my own share of characters that I consider my own personal four horsemen of the apocalypse in fighting games: Athena from KOF, Ibuki from SF, and May and Elphelt from Guilty Gear. But it was moreso the players using them than the characters themselves that made them traumatizing to play against at the time.
Your feng has improved holy shit
You took the words right outta my head. Play whoever the hell you want. Don't let the mindset of others dictate who you should play. The people who lose no matter who they play, they always say "You only won because I lost." The Last message I got was actually such a hilarious one. My Last message was, "Bro what happened? why did you let me win?" I said. Sorry got a call from work.
They Said "Oh. Well GGS anyway👍." I always seem to get nice messages. 😂😂😂
In MK1, as much as I enjoy to play characters like reptile, scorpion, sub, and a few others, they will always get outclassed by characters like Johnny and Sindel. The only reason for this is that characters that are top tier in MK1 are the best for their archetypes while the low tiers are just worse. At launch, I used to main raiden because I was so excited to play him as his gameplay looked so complex and interesting. Sadly it was much more simple than I hoped but he was still fun until people started rage quitting in Kombat League and it wasn’t enjoyable. Just to find the game fun again, I went to main reptile, my second most anticipated character, but he’s either average or just bad compared to all the top tiers. Over time I’ve just started to lose respect for people playing the annoying top tiers because it’s all I see in Kombat League now. If all characters were just as powerful in their own special ways(Like Guilty Gear Strive) then I think I’d have equal respect for everyone and I’d actually have fair fights but we’re far from that.
You right about the usage, that is the main reason...If you don't know the matchup you will struggle
I don't think people should complain about match ups in Tekken 8. Taking control of the replay to find options really helps. It seems people want the game to be easier by design rather than train. I just wish the online connection was better.
Me personally I wouldn’t hesitate to play whoever I want to play unless they are actually unplayable(mk1 sub), doesn’t matter whether their cheap af disgustingly strong or really weak
Hey sikkander makes it happen, its possible with enough dedication with sub
@@Section8dc no offence but have you seen his streams as of late, He’s so done with how weak sub zero is.
@@Iwisoks none taken my friend, thats fair I actually haven't, I watched his streams everyday for years, all the way since MKX, but this last year I've been too busy, tbf he has been done with how weak sub is since the game dropped, hopefully they will give him some buffs eventually, props to sik for sticking with him though and hopefully he doesn't go mad(as entertaining as it would be lol)
I would bet $100 that if he didn't stream the game for a living he would have quit a long time ago. The amount of people in the community who overrate sub zero and act like he's a strong character don't make it any better, especially when he's so bad even a casual bum like me can see what's wrong with him
I finally spent time to learn how to beat the bears. Now that I beat them more often, I can clearly see the people who main them are not actually good. They don’t rematch if they lose, or they just keep using the same flow chart since no one forces them to do anything else. It’s okay to play the bears, but I don’t like that it seems that most just want easy wins from knowledge checking everyone
Great video
1:29 dang that was a good come back. normally the game does not allow players to 3 stock they end up losing on the 2nd round.
I have a strong hatred for Bison, every time I see him it just reminds me of the money I lost trying to beat him in the sf2 cabinets, and whenever I lose to a bison it just brings that feeling right back
I play and really like Victor as a character, and I completely understand the frustration when dealing with him. But I believe people should play whatever makes them feel happy or comfortable, even if it's Lucky Chloe, lol.
Not Lucky Chloe ☠️☠️☠️
Oh nah bro said the forbidden L word 💀
Tekken not for you
I get alot of people like when all things in the game are op and frankly I can get it. But I just get frustrated out of my mind and much rather have the overall power celling to be lower.
I never understood that mentality most of these people aren't at a high enough skill level for it to matter. I'm a huge Bison fan super excited to have my main back in SF
I can't wait for his return!
@@RealMikeHollowImagine if they eventually gave him his Alpha design. It would look so fire in VI
That's a really good point, and I haven't thought about it TBH. I rather fight any feng or drag, than victor, alisa and lars; they just made no sense in a msrtial art fighting game. Don't get me wrong, I hate Feng but the match is somehow fair, and with enough skill and knowledge you and win; but the other 3 are just annoying and makes me don't want to rematch.
Feng is annoying yeah, but a least you doesnt need to learn in which precise moment you have to press a jab to interrupt an specific stance.
You didnt interrupt precise enough? welp, sorry bro, you're launch - Basically my experience with lars and victor.
Alisa, well, one time i SS the High attack of the Attack mode, when i went to punish onee tick of the chainsaw clipped me, i lost the punish, the round and my shit.
@Gideos549 it's not just about interrupting tho. Lars doesn't really have good frames on block aside from DEN 3, so alot of his offense is fake or can be punishedon block. Lars players also aren't afraid to use stuff that's punishable on block because they know that people don't want to lab the character. I understand that lars is annoying, but sometimes ya'll just continue to let lars press buttons even when it's your turn
Great video as always. At this point there are no 'fair' characters anymore. This is Tekken 8 and everyone has cheese. Those days are over.
Fighting games are such a complicated beast. I was an Alex main in sf5 and boy did I complain about what I felt my boy Alex needed. Then I saw problem x play him in tournament and destroy even punk and i thought ....fml. Im just gonna shut up and try and understand the game better because clearly the problem was me and not Alex😂
king main: hello
King mostly annoys noobs who don't know how to break throws yet. Meanwhile, I've never heard anybody say anything good about Alisa from people who don't play her, regardless of experience.
Good video but how come you say that feng isnt top 1 because you would see him dominating tournaments but then say (with lili as an example) that tournament appearances dont derermine a characters strength
Because when a character is overwhelming powerful you see top players flock to them because they want to get paid. They see it more as a job than us casuals so they're going to use the character that gives them the best chances of winning, but that doesn't always mean that they're going to find the strongest or most competent character.
So, in Lilis case.. she's a bit like Makotos situation on 3s. A very strong character that was undiscovered and unexplored until one player came along and showed how strong she was. She wasn't seen in tournaments before that.
So, basically.. tournament players will always go to the strongest known characters (Feng according to many) but tournament players won't always know every single character to the extent that they should and so some go under the radar (Lili for example).
As an enjoyer of the grappler archetype, I get so must disrespect. It's something about "if I respect your pressure you'll grab me." This just sounds like poor sportsmanship to me.
I like to switch up between rushdown, zoner, or grappler characters because I like variety in my gameplay. By default I always have to expect that if I don't pick a rush down character someone's going to bitch and moan regardless of whether the character is strong or weak. Some people just don't want to learn anything other than being 2 inches from each other, trying to mash interrupt.
@@rx.78 This was intended to be a joke but being 100% serious I think that we all have archetypes that we don't tend to respect. For a while I've hated projectile zoning but I've tried to play projectile zoners and I get it (except for the few zoners with auto tracking projectiles in anime games, actual red light/green light BS!).
@giantdinoboy8264 See I don't blame them because I was the same way. It took me making the effort to learn the other archetypes that made me appreciate them. Same with charge characters. Used to hate playing as them until I really decided to learn them and realize the problem was me, not the characters. I don't hate rush down at all, but I do hate the sort of "if it ain't rushdown it's cheap" mentality some people have.
Grab them and show no mercy, sir ☝🏾
I’ve actually never played Marduk before because I didnt buy his DLC. I’ll have to try him out this time
For the Shenanigans.
So theoretically if more people play bears/Zafina they would go down the tier list due to exposure?
Alisa has never made me want quit playing. The only characters that made me want to rage quit Tekken 7-8 was Kazuya, Jin, Kazumi, Asuka, Leroy, Azucena.
Literally cant play with one of my friends because he only plays Alisa, Xiaoyu, and eddy and leaves when I win even one match. And that is not a unique mindset in the Tekken community. Its no mystery why they get hate. Also they plug more often.
Tell your friend stop being scrubby

@@DookJob haha I'm sure you've tried
"Brother eww" 😂
Personally, I actually quite liked fighting feng pre nerfs as i saw it as an opportunity to dust up my neutral game, defense and reaction times but i can totally name at least ten reasons as to why he needed nerfs.
1. His combo damage was too high for a character that has historically always had that be his main downside
2. His heat smash was insane before they made it steppable
3. His full screen unblockable stomp was insane to deal with on top of all his other strengths,
4. His neutral game being so good gives him the ability to take irreplaceable health points from you, as any damage done not in the air, ground, or any form of combo will not become grey life.
5. He almost never has to commit to any crazy punishable attacks, unless you're bad and throwing out random launchers just to see if they'll hit.
6. On top of his already great neutral, poke game, and standing mixups, he has some of the best, if not the best auto evasion and auto parry/counter game in tekken 8. So even if he does lose his turn, it's literally always a threat that he may steal it back from you in one of like 10 or more different ways.
7. Heat burst and heat smash pre patch often caused forced 50/50s in which movement was not an option and coupling this with his already insane kit made him even more of monster.
8. His counter hit to combo game was wild, which is aided by the fact that he has a neutral game tailor made to harass/confuse and wear down his opponent.
9. Having a safe on block, armoured, semi tracking, mid hitting heat engager on top of all this is wild.
10. He's not that hard to pilot executionally. All that power being accessible through minimum executional effort means many players using characters that already require a lot of mental capacity to use now have to worry about what characters like feng, King, Victor, or lili could do with simple inputs.
Maybe not everything I brought up was touched, but the sheer quantity of it is why he warranted nerfs at all tbh.
I actually enjoy playing against Alisa, because if I lose to her, I know 100% the loss is on me, either the player was better than me, or I just played it like a potato. As an Alisa player myself, I know the match-up, so the random shitty Alisa won't get away with anything, so for me, there's no reason to say she's cheap or anything.
Granted, for me, a "cheap" character is a character that can rob you even if you know the match-up, and Alisa isn't like that, if you know the match-up, she's got nothing and is the most fundamental character in the game, because the moment you know the match-up, all she has are pokes.
This.
I love playing against alisa's insane chip dmg. Her chainsaw pressure in heat is so fun to go up against.
@@shreeanshmahapatra2313 mitigate the risk.
After DES f1+2 do a backdash, almost every single option will whiff. Backdash works against other options as well but against other moves you might need to backdash two or three times to cause a whiff.
Side step block will evade all moves that can be stepped while block the others, leaving you vulnerable only to lows, so start making reads.
3rd option you have when hit by things like DES d1 or you blocked DES f1, is a dickjab, you will trade with DES 1, which does almost no damage in that situation, and beat everything beside DES u/f1+2 as that's the only option that low crushes.
Alisa only deals "insane chip damage" if you stand there and take it, but you have multiple options to force her to respect you, or at the very least, take away her chainsws.
Hahah this guy said alisa is the most fundamental character in the game
@@karelkantelaar1357 She is, she actually requires skills, don't be salty because you use broken masculine characters so you hate everything of the opposite of that and think it's cheap lmao.
I play Alisa from the moment I picked tekken 6 (after some time). Not sure why, probably anime or some other stuff. And she was my one of the most played characters since. Even in Tekken 8. Is she strong? Yes, but I think heat system and chip made her way agressive, like many other characters.
I feel the same towards those 3 characters you mentioned. On top of the gameplay gimmicks, they also don't feel like tekken characters conceptually, particularly Victor and Alisa, cos of weaponry (Yoshi is an exception cos a Katana is a martial arts weapon at least). I already deeply hate the use of weapons in MK, which has grown exponentially, so seeing that tendency appear in Tekken too is a bad sign. Same goes for Nina: can they just trash her gun?
Agree with u.
I have played Xiaoyu for 4 years (mained her from t7). And every second player calls her cheap and worries how I can lose on a broken character (or why I don't know that that combo is -13 or -12 on block).
It's easy to call any character cheap and never play him, but u'll never understand his downsides (for example, Ling in t7 was good only at evasion and setups (before 5.1), everything else was garbage).
P.S. btw Feng is cheap. He has almost everything (50/50, good pokes, strong ch play, evasion, fast safe mid homing, parries, stance pressure, and threatening oki play). And most of his key moves are above average. I don't see any weaknesses except the level of play and laziness of most Feng players
I’m definitely attracted to top tier characters but that’s usually because they have things I like and/ need
I really like Quan Chi in MKX for instance cause he’s got high damage, a strong mixup game and keep away tools
In my short playtime so far with Tekken 8 Victor has been my favourite character but again that’s cause he’s got tools I like, don’t know if he’s still top tier but I was playing with some people at MCM last month and they said that Victor will carry me if I ever decide to plunge into the hellhole that is ranked
Certain characters always going to be more op better than other characters been like that for a long time with fighting games especially guest characters
I don’t play any of these games but I play game and watch in smash and the hatred towards that character kinda applies to this video
I mained Geras and Kano in MK11. I loved Sub-Zero through all my life cause he was cool ninja with ice powers, but completely avoided him in MK11 cause he became busted as hell one day. On the other hand, Geras was strong and got nerfed into oblivion, but the amount of salt I got in the voice chat could fill the Black Sea.
I honestly think you can see in the gameplay who is a true tierwhore. For example, most Dragunov mains know those long wall to wall combos cause they never skip a JDCR stream, but their fundamentals are ass. Or Devil Jins who dive kick themselves to death.
Picking a main is like picking a new pair of shoes. If you like them visually and they are comfortable - it just clicks. But having shoes like everyone else also sucks.
I’m a Steve player who plays a handful of other characters but can’t no one say anything about a character who’s best moves are easily ducked, or out frames and who has no reliable lows. And I hate Steve mirror matches but against the rest of the cast it’s def an uphill battle.
14:03 😂😂😂 gotta love the sore winners and the sore losers.
They're in the game. Guess what, tough shit, deal with it. I play Alisa, I win, I lose. You don't like it? At least I'm not cheating with auto BS. I play Alisa because she's fun. I also don't one and done, unless it's a connection issue or something out of my control.
Fair points.
So Lars and Alissa are Unga Bunga?
Yup. Anime Unga Bunga.
5:25 🤣 and bears and a jaguar that just grabs etc…
Bison is back
If u watched Lotus, he made a video on pride in the FGC. And it hits the same points. Check it out sometime. I'll link it if u are interested, i agree to its like the Leroy mains, "Im a nerfed version of T7 Leroy!" Now its, "he feels too strong with the parry update."
Yeah, bro. Link it to me. I'd be interested to watch that.
One time I was playing MK1 ranked as Baraka. I was fighting this dude who wasn't bad. I thought we were having a good match until he beat me and started tea bagging. I told him "c'mon man, you didn't have to do that" and he replied with something like " screw you, you play Baraka". And then he left
I was flabbergasted. Especially since that was only my second day playing Baraka online.
I play Xiaoyu and Hwoarang, but I don't play online it's not easy playing as Xiaoyu or Hwoarang there are some characters in the game I hate playing against. I get floated too much by them. Computer or ghost battle, it's just hard to win against them... Jin is a pain. I only play Xiaoyu and Hwoarang they are the only characters I like to play because I like their style of play. That's just how it is, I tried to play Leo but it messed up my Xiaoyu combos so badly that I gave up on Leo
Good video
Fourth for sure must be Feng on the thumbnail
I felt really really understood until u hit me with the ‚imma be honest with you guys‘ 😭
(im not even using chainsaws a lot)
Lol as a Claudio main I always thought I was safe from the whole "oh you're carried therefore your wins are not as impressive" thing but now I'm hearing people screaming for nerfs of Claudio which is honestly the most infuriating thing ever... Claudio is mid tier at best. I sometimes wonder how well these people would do if they switched over to the character theyre bitching about.... I was one of those people once and then I switched over to Shaheen to see how easy it is to get wins, and to my surprise, I still actually had to try and win the game. No win is ever free.
Putting Bison here is desrespect itself
He just got announced and people already despised him

He and Akuma were my mains for my whole SF career and then when neither were in SF6 I slowly got tired and quit the game, but NOW I got BOTH the boys back in a month!

I ALWAYS got disrespected for playing yoshimitsu but hey i guess that’s just how it works i guess
I've been using Alisa since Tekken 6 and I completely understand why people hate the character lol
thoughts on claudio?
Personally, he's one of the characters I'm scared of the most and do think he's being slept on, but I also don't think he's the strongest or anything like that. Just a personal block for me.
I love that when you Kuma you say coomer
What you think about Yoshimitsu?
Really cool design. Hate Flash 😂
@@RealMikeHollow as a yoshi main i wanted a honourable mention at least lol. guess his new outfit lets him get away with it haha
@@Chomanji24 it's got that Tekken 3 vibe so we give Yoshi a pass *inb4 he annoys me today*
I play Kuma and Claudio, same rank, so they're both low tier but it's funny how people will see Claudio as fair and ok but not Kuma. Even tho Kuma has more odds staked against him imo.
Personally, I think Claudio is being slept on. Someone's gonna pick him up and run through people soon. Mark my words 😂
@9:42 I wouldn't even argue it's the player's fault, but really the community's fault for not enough people playing the character. I don't play Zafina so I can't say much either, but whenever I do fight her I don't mind losing since it feels fresh fighting them once in a blue moon.
I've dealt with this exact problem. I started the game (first Tekken ever) and picked Dragunov off of vibes (and characters repeating voice lines when doing moves is annoying to me). Did some matches with my friends: complaints, complaints, complaints. I switched to Leroy, who then got massively buffed and got called a bandwagon whatever-the-fuck. I'm back to Dragunov again, hopefully permanently (but Craig, Miguel, and Fahkuhram make me wonder.)
Yeah, don't worry too much about what other people think bro. Just do what makes you happy. I'm a Marduk main so you can imagine what people were saying to me in Tekken 7 😂
As a lars main since tekken 6, i honestly agree, i love playing lars dont get me wrong, but lars is pretty annoying to fight against in a mirror
I don't think any one character can be carried passed blue ranks. Once you get there, you deserve some type of credit no matter who you play with or how you get the wins. Coming from Kazuya main. With that being said, Alisa and Lars are annoying as hell at any rank.
I main Johnny Cage and a lot of people get on the mic to just bash and complain (whether they win or lose) but honestly MK1 was the first Mortal Kombat game where I got to play on release and instantly just enjoyed Johnny’s playstyle. I don’t like being a crazy zoner. I love being in your face. In Tekken 8 I main Lars and he’s not that great. People just love complaining about losing. I’m going to keep playing my characters.
As a Kazuya player (subject also to alot of crying and disrespect.) Its not so much how good a character is but yes how much effort I think my opponent is having to put in for that success. Even in t8 theres at least some exexution and timing to playing him, in some cases a great deal. But a pre patch victor who uses 3 moves with no execution that covers everything you ever need while ignoring nuetral and doing massive damage is just really annoying, and dont get me started on alisa and lars. I still think feng is the best character in the game but that might be just me cause I even found him harder to deal with than launch druganov
Although I'm a Zafina main, my win rate is definitely NOT high. I have to work a lot harder to win. And this is coming from playing Raven. She's not that strong compared to the others. But as a Zafina main, it makes me play actual tekken, that means, better defense, better counters, and side stepping, throw escaping etc. I'm lose a lot, but I'm becoming a lot better at fundamentals as a Zafina player than I would've with anyone else. Probably my best decision on a character so far. Imo
People get mad about Xiaoyu a lot too but I really only play her because I like her and I know her from way back in Tekken 3. Playing her in Tekken 7 didn't feel all that rewarding so it felt really good getting Tekken 8 Xiaoyu. And it still does. I get mad about King a lot. Even when I win, it's just annoying to sit through all these animations. Lars is a bit like that too.
My 2 mains are Bryan and Alisa, according to some people, the hardest and easiest character in the game 😂
And yeah, I definitely feel like I don't need to work as hard to get wins with Alisa, but I still think she's fun to use. She has chainsaws, and chainsaws are cool 🤷♂️
They are not less valid, but you get to Rank easier, than players who dont use them.
For example Victor player pre patch, fujin on 3 moves, as new payer can get it in 3 months while new player as Brian maybe never.
For feng, king, dragunov etc, the road is easier, doesnt mean wins are less valid
I actually wanna go back to playing Victor since he got nerfed. He's not just this brain dead character now, you actually have work with him for wins now.
"Work" come on man
It seems like there are a couple of types of Alisa players. You have your mashers and you can recognise them quickly because they all play the same way and get blown up if you know the matchup. Then there are the good Alisa players who do play Tekken. Make good use of her pokes, movement etc. So while she isn't a 'true martial artist' I'd say she is less frustrating than Feng since you can't run your game against him because of his evasion and other tools. I can respect him a little more now he got retuned though.
You make a good point about it not bothering you when people hate, a win's a win etc. That differs from person to person. I took Alisa for a spin and it was the easiest climb in the game. As soon as they're -10 the saws come out. Very oppressive. However I wouldn't enjoy sticking with her because I don't enjoy riling people up. I'd rather both players have a good time and an enjoyable contest.
But then again I play Panda a fair bit so, ya know. At some point you have to go with what's fun to you even if people don't like it too much. How anyone can hate a silly cute panda I don't know but that's their problem.
💯 All Facts , just play your game & live ya life
14:11 I fucking love your content dude you crack me up 😂😂😂. I feel the same way when someone 1 n done me after they beat me. I have 1 n done before but only after a loss and only if the connectin is just fucking awful to the point I don't learn anything about my matchup. Other than that I happily play the full set even if I get my ass stomped
😂😂 thank you, sir. Appreciate ya ☝🏾
it's pretty sad how a lot of people in the fgc think. tekken has never been a "honest" or fundamental only game. There has always been gimmicky characters in the game. tekken 1 we had yoshimitsu doing yoshi things. tekken 2 kazuya was the only character who could side step. kuma being kuma for all tekkens and more. i 100% understand that some characters are very annoying to fight against, but i hate it when people get mad at the player for playing them. its stupid. btw nice vid. 🔥
I made a post on Reddit asking which character is honest and no one could give me a consistent answer. People are just gonna hate who they hate.
@@melthework4511 fr its honestly hard to say a characters honest, even a difficult character to play like bryan can do some wild shit like a 120 damage combo off a 15 frame punish if the player has good execution
lmao you pulling tekken 1 and 2 as if it means anything. Tekken only started having "reasonable" balance in tekken 5 fated retribution Afterwards it was just getting more and more equal with pretty fair representation accross the board with a few pretty silly exceptions in every game, like Lars and Bob tekken 6 and Akuma and DLC of Tekken 7.
No Kazama slander will be tolerated.
Lol my winrate with Feng is the same as my Bryan.
Tekken is very prone to people going "You're carried" if they go up against either top tiers or characters that they don't know the match-up for (especially Xiaoyu, Hwoarang, Lei, Yoshi, etc.). I still get flack from people who say I got carried by Lili, cuz she is strong atm and can have unga bunga moments. Especially as you played against me recently Mike, you can attest to it, but I rarely even play like that and more focus on my fundamentals, reading my opponent, and playing mind games on my opponent with 50/50s, even dropping a round winning combo just to mix them up. Hearing stuff like "You were carried" is not only very funny but very mildly annoying cuz I find it disrespectful
And when they didn't hate them they think they are boring or something.. example leo my main , although im not too good but i noticed some people hate to rematch my character xd or idk the reason.. or u meet those who fight for he or she word, i like nice people who don't care what u call him. Also we already have Julia or whatever her name as female adventurer or lara croft style , i think having leo as a young boy adventurer would be better than being a female if we talk about gameplay style its has fun moves .
If your character can jump 50 feet in the air and either grab or hit me from an area they can’t be hit and then land at a safe distance don’t you dare tell me that isn’t bullshit 😂
The problem isnt that characters are weak, the problem is that some characters are just stronger or far more effective.
I main hwoarang and almost everything i do is a huge risk for little reward. Meanwhile you have fengs, brians, ninas, laws, dragunovs and more just chipping the life out of me from safety. They're Low risk with a moderate reward.
In my opinion, thats what seperates the top tier characters from the rest.
Lowkey I think victor is pretty balanced character not super cheap just high mobility and it’s eye catching negan is perfect example as like normal fighting characters are still pretty broken
I don't think Victor is broken, just Hella annoying and Negan was definitely not broken lol.
Win is a win. It is only cringe if you abuse someone who is way below you in skill. Whatever top or bottom tier lists we have, does not change that bottom tier bears are popping off every once in a while
The Tekken being all about fighting styles and shit when jack was here since the first game is kinda silly to me, tekken wants to portray fighting arts in their best form but that isnt their sole focus and it hasnt been since the first games (characters like yoshi, kuni, gon, bosconovitch etc.)
I hate playing Lars. Not because he’s good but because he’s annoying . When he starts doing all that spinning stuff I get that same feeling of annoyance that you get when you go the the family reunion and your cousins bad ass hyper active kids won’t sit down somewhere .
“Well I still won so I don’t care “ 💀 FACTS and can’t stress it enough PLAY WHO YOU WANT WHO CARES IT PEOPLE HATE YOU BOUGHT THE DAMN GAME 🙏🏾💀
