I have way more trouble vs kunimitsu, leroy easier to punish and reacting to his animations, also baiting parry or orbital whiff is easy, I like to df1 mixup with low pokes vs him. Only problem is leroy pluggers 😂
I've learned that against Leroy, you have to play like a robot. Like a machine. As soon as you see that parry or orbital animation end, you use your fastest launcher or move in your kit and you do this over and over again. I've only won against one Leroy and it was hell on earth with Negan

All DLC character should be at the top, because you cannot even lab them without paying. Training mode literally prevents you from learning DLC matchups if you have not bought DLC character.

I remember yesterday, a Marduk player did 14 freaking tackles in one round and I escaped 12 of them and won. After that I just did sidestep into launch and it turned out he run out of ideas. Don't give up and learn your enemy while you fight him!
As a paul main I use shredded kicks. Work like a charm😂 when i block his rage drive. J dont just standd there and guess his mixup. I use kicks. Sometime he gets launch some time a hit.
@@jadonplox you know that it's easy to predict a grab when your opponent spams it? He almost always used left punch after tackle, so it wasn't that hard. Takes a bit more luck to win a lottery
Man I haven’t played tekken in awhile but I remember in low ranks I could get a 20 win streak with kuni by barely trying and then struggle to get a 2 win streak with Jin, who I’ve put 5x the amount of work learning compared to kuni.
30 Win streak in ranked with her and a 53 win streak in public matches... She's been my new main since she came out but super cheap can't disagree... I agree with you that you would of put a lot more work in with "Jin" but if you did the same with Kuni she becomes even more cheaper too win with... Half the time these days in ranked/public/private matches people leave the match before the 1st round starts or in private lobbys you get kicked straight away as soon as they see you main her....
As someone that just got into Tekken a week ago and instantly became a Shaheen main, this video put a giant smile on my face to see his is at the bottom of the barrel :)
I can't tell you how bored I was playing Leroy when he first came out because of how OP he was. To me the easier the character is the less fun they are to use because they're nothing to them really.
Yeah I play claudio casually, and playing braindead at that too but I beat the crap out of xiayou, while playing with yoshimitsu against that piece of shit xiayou I find it fun even though I get shredded by frame advantage and obnoxious recovery
Pretty much every character in the game has a at least one 'cheap' move, its just more so about how badly can some characters get away with it over others. Marduk's tackle IMO is the cheapest most OP move in the game, especially as a RD. Literally no character in the game can do anything anywhere close to what he can do.
I just played 7 games with a feng player who just spammed a stance every round then ran into a marduck who spammed tackle for another 4 games. I regret my decisions
Marduk might be cheap. But he's difficult to master. His moves are slow like every move has 2-3f lag. His combos are clunky and drop so much I had to find other mains.
I main Josie because I want to see the jiggles really but its actually hard to get her to advance after red ranks without fundamentals. But the hard work pays off because she's just simply easy on the eyes
maybe you should try watching the video, he talks about why he thinks it's honest compared to other characters instead of just skipping the whole thing
You cannot convince me Jack is that low for being cheap, dude has so much pushback on shit, a 12 frame low thats +2 on hit, one of the best whiff punishers, jackhammer, debug which is almost impossible to react to, a complete throw game. If you dont know this matchup you pretty much die
The only thing that justifies Raven being in A is the fact that she gets away with very punishable stuff due to no matchup knowledge. Otherwise, she's B or even high C.
Not only that but her would be punishable moves often have extensions. It’s constantly a battle of “should I try to punish that or should I wait to punish the extension”
@@soprecise7993Yeah wtf is that about, and you cant pressure her either always a risk of that goddamn parry teleport shit. Half her moves high crush so no jab interrupt either.
Kazuya has a low win rate not because he's honest There's a lot more to it Story mode, him being the original main character makes him one of the most played characters in the game with a loooot of new comers picking him up And since he's "difficult" this also means he won't be getting a lot of wins due to that.
Absolutely true, but for some of us newer players just kinda want to learn fundamentals before moving on to other characters because if you start with a cheap character, there's progression but it doesn't really feel like you learn much compared to a character who is just straight up honest and helps you get into the Tekken mindset.
Kazuya is definitely cheesy. These people are biased. Those sweeps are used at least 7 times in 3 rounds. And Kazuya players only use 3 to 4 moves to win and all those moves are cheesy.
@@since2133 yeah exactly. Learn what to do against those 4 moves and your opponents rhythm and put the pressure on when you take your turn back. It's an uphill battle for Kaz and I've never played him so you can't call me biased. There's a reason he has one of the lowest win loss ratios
@@sixsideddeath5529 there’s no reason to explain myself to you because you mentioned that you’re a Kazuya main. You will never get it. Kazuya is like Anna. Both are 50/50 based characters. Are you telling me that you can tell when you see a low sweep or a mid is coming from those 2 characters? There’s nothing for us to learn against those 2 characters. All we gotta do is guess if it’s a high or a low or mid. There’s no learning there, just guessing.
@@since2133 literally said ive never played him. you just suck lol. for every blocked hellsweep Kaz has to get 4 more to break even. all my laz m/u win ratios are above 50% because once you figure out the player Kaz has nothing. sucks to suck kid
Exactly. Even some of my friends realize this game is bullshit. Can’t disagree there. I even play Lili who is cheap as well. I guess just play it to your best. Don’t care about the rest.
I think some cheese is useful for teaching beginners fundamentals like throw breaks and movement. For instance, Bryan's Snake Edge teaches players to block low and punish. But a character having so much cheese that you have spend hours lagging the matchup will just ruin the game for low and intermediate players.
I would argue the difficulty tierlist looks similar except for akuma and geese. There is somewhat of a correlation of difficult characters vs cheese characters.
Anna feels cheap imo. She has Nina can opener string and does she really need 2 lows that launch for combos? Just seems a bit too much. I personally knew quite a few ppl struggling to get out of yellow ranks get all the way up to mighty ruler with Anna. Even they would tell you she's cheap.
All her low are launch punishable, her can opener is just a knowledge check. Her crouch mix up is defo scary, just ssr her alot she can't really carry that far before u need to learn tekken unlike fahk and leroy
@@crazy911wman i define cheap as if even if you know the match up you'll still get cheesed chars like kuni ,fahk, zafina, akuma, and leroy just to name a few, anna has clear weakness that u can get around unlike the other char i mention.
I definitely understood the King placement initially, but when it was all said and done King is cheaper than about half of the characters above him 😂 If u don’t lab rolling death cradle you can lose to pretty bad players. If you’re like me and have to warm up before being able to react to throws then running into King players early can get u blown up by otherwise free Kings, not to mention a less than ideal connection makes giant swing and hopkick basically a 50/50 You then get a fear of blocking which gets u counter hit all day. Your fundamentals go out the window and suddenly your on equal ground with a player with nothing but flowcharts. That’s the definition of cheap
Steve hard on highest level but super cheap at purple ranks carried by spam b1 and 4,1,2 idk why but every Steve player has 5000 wins and still spam same moves, no improvement
There was a time where I would see this game as if it was like some kind of contest. "Who has the most cheap stuff, and who can abuse it the most?". That's how I saw the game once.
What changed? Because that's how everyone should view this game. It's cheap af overall, compared to almost every other top tier fighting game, especially online.
@@dyhrbergdk9541 Well, that's a matter of opinion but I feel like having a way to eventually parry air juggling the same way you can parry low blows would put a lot more emphasis on skill than in spending the entire round trying to catch someone off guard and juggle them to death. I would also appreciate if they would fix some of the buggy issues that happen in walled stages in the corners. I've lost so many close matches because the character suddenly reversed positions in a corner mid combo. I know it's a matter of personal preference but I also hate the way you can continuously combo someone up off the ground and I'm talking about starting a combo that way, not an ongoing combo. It is what it is, though. I'm not as annoyed as I was when I first made these comments weeks ago. I'm just more used to the mechanics of old school 2D fighters. The last Tekken I really got into was Pt 3 lol.
@@kk0704 y do u ask every hwaorang mains if they're gay? I know ur curious cuz you try not to assume but what does it does it have to do with this lmao
After a year of tekken, I realized that tekken was not a game about honesty, more like a battle of cheese, even with kazuya I always try to be the most scummish and ''unfair'' as possible.
I used to have a warrior kazuya and a purple rank katarina. Kazuya was always my main, I got bored of not playing my main and I kept trying until I got my kazuya to suzaku. Just play the character you enjoy even if it is harder that way, in the end it is going to be way more rewarding. I never felt any feeling of accomplishment getting katarina to purple.
Lei has multiple parries. 3+4 (high/mid punches, ps20~) f+3+4 (high/mid punches) DRU.f (high punches) PHX.f (high punches) TGR.f (high/mid strikes) CRA (auto low parry) Here's some random videos of them, including a video guide on parrying with Lei. ruclips.net/video/pIeR3RHb_PA/видео.html ruclips.net/video/AekO0pq_LBU/видео.html ruclips.net/video/f5GPi4h057g/видео.html
@@notabot2351 bruh a bunch of characters have those kinds of parries I’m talking Leroy and asuka parries that are scrub killers, Bryan can do high punch parries, Ling can do high and mid evades with her stance, Jin can parry highs and mids, Feng’s 1+2 can parry high punches, Leo has a few too I’m saying Lei doesn’t have a broken 0 skill parry like Leroy.
As a Josie I can’t see the cheese Unsafe strings No lows that knock down or launch Slow mids Trash throws Low combo damage Tiny move list She was super fun to use when I first started though then people learnt not to mash all the time and suddenly she has nothing but whiff punishes 😅 Yet The Mishima player thinks hellsweeps and okis are honourable tactics
A character that has 50,000 ways to launch you, has running bullshit from across the screen, so many crush moves, and it requires more effort to fight than it is to use. Compare that to a Mishima, hellsweep is extremely UNSAFE, electrics are high and require a just frame, can easily be side-stepped to the left, almost no gimmicks (Except for DJ but fuck him), they are super reliant on conditioning before they even get to play properly which is especially clear with electric pressure since no one respects it (compare that to Josie that can just fight anyone without setup). TL;DR Mishimas take extreme risks to do anything meaningful, Josie players win because of the smallest of risks done by their opponent. Press buttons until you win.
Yeah kind of absurd Kazumi should be the queen of cheese but it's d tier for some reasons Kata is literally kazumi but worse in every single way but because she has a garbage snake edge that works only in the lower ranks and she is s? Literally never heard someone saying "wish I was playing vs kazumi" lmao
I straight up don't think Josie is cheap at all and I main Steve. She's legitimately steppable from her lean back stance and while she do be having some plus frames, you have 60 seconds to choose how to win the round, spending a few of those to block and learn the enemy's attack patterns is to your benefit. I haven't met a single Josie I couldn't beat in a long set, but of course that is a anecdote.
I agree with this list for the most part. I play Paul and I pretty much spammed my way into the red ranks. Maybe he could be S tier just because he could spam a lot and unless you are going for big boy combos, almost no execution required. As for the bottom of the list (C&D), whenever I face them since the ruler ranks, it is always a tough match.
I cant play with Paul, i just get outspammed always. Oh god, how much i hate braindead kids using only lows/grabs/imbalanced strings. What is the point of teaching characters if you lose to spammer who doesn't even know any staple combos
I remember playing a long set of ranked against a leroy and ended up getting a promotion for myself with heihachi. The leroy messaged me saying I didn't deserve that promo cuz i kept spamming ff2...
I mostly agree with the tier list, but with 2 exceptions: 1. King should be at least A because not only no one on online matches break throws, he also has quite some pretty disgusting oki and wall setups. I have a friend who's a Fujin King and even though I've fought his King for hundreds of times I still can't get used to King's setups, there's just too many. He plays King, but it almost feels like I'm playing against Xiaoyu and that's one solid proof that King certainly could be cheesier than you think. 2. It doesn't make sense to see Eliza not in the same tier as other 2D chars. Sure literally no one plays her, but she's really hard to use, and compared to the other 2Ds she's arguably the weakest. She has the least execution output (how much one can get from paying the execution grind) compared to other 2D's. Sure she has lots abusable moves, but so do Geese and Akuma. I think it's either put Eliza down to A-tier or put Geese and Akuma up to S-tier.
TBFIt takes a long ass time to learn all the set ups for different situations with king because like while there are a ton of amazing set ups they are hella niche and can be difficult to pull off.
I agree with the eliza especially coz once you learn the match up (which is pretty easy coz 1. She doesn't have a million moves and 2. All her lows are launch punishable) her gimmicky stuff becomes useless
@@khacks1238 That's true, but I think the reward is immense considering most of the time people don't know shit about the setups and the only way to get used is to find a player who's good with that. It's borderline impossible to just watch a guide video and expect to have the muscle memory to counter those setups overnight.
@@lc744 Yeah, and TMM didn't really try to explain why she's S (almost as if he's avoiding it) which was kinda disappointing tbh. It's clear that he's being too biased.
TMM plays king, and i think that makes him understand his "honesty". King has no pressure tools at all, he has like 3 plus moves which is neat cause if not he would be broken. The thing is once you know his basic setups, you find it really difficult to open your oponnent if he has a good defence, and then you need to start playing real tekken.
Noctis, Lei and Anna? Tmm roasted every main i have lol!! I just like them cause of the character! I had no idea what their moves looked like when i picked them as mains
Yoshimitsu cheap for real? You have any Idea how much time i Put to punishing Most the roster that has attacks, faster than supersonic? I have usually only 3-4 moves that fast enough to even punish from 200 attacks.
As a Nina main I have to disagree (obviously lol). She can be cheap at beginner and intermediate level (can opener, mashing pressure, etc.) but she has no panick move nor a hopkick and at advanced/tournament level she's so punishable it's crazy, one of the reasons why you don't see her in tournaments. So I feel like she belongs to B or A top, but definitely not S.
I say B. I used to main nina and asuka (now just asuka). Nina is one of those characters that is meme or get memed on. Not like other characters. She does have some very cheap stuff going with her but it's not marduk or leroy or fahk levels of i want to rip my hair out yknow?
As a person whose been playing tekken 7 for only a year I agree that whenever I get into a match whether it be casual or ranked if I see a lucky Chloe or kunimitsu I leave the match instantly
I can't get it to be honest. You rate some of the characters like Bryan as characters played in high level and some of them as green-orange rank characters like law or maven. I can't see how Bryan is hard to play in lower ranks. But i can see how he is in higher ranks. Same with law, maven and Shaheen (pretty cheap in higher ranks imo). But that's your opinion of course and ill take it
Let me voice "my own" opinion. From my fights against Bryan since low to now upper intermediate rank, he has good tools, but not abusable string/setup/cheesy stuffs. He approaches and attacks "fundamentally" (in contrast of some bs like Julia party crasher) and defends against me "fundamentally" (in contrast of some bs like Feng's bunches of evasive and panic moves). To me Bryan should be ranked below any Mishimas. EWGF by itself is abusable.
@@jasonkennedy6844 Idk to me it's a very good move but has never given me a big trouble (I'm violet rank). I'd still argue that you can counter Bryan fundamentally. He's not Feng or Hwo who I need a very specific way to "respectfully" deal with. And that's what I call real bs.
MainMan: Mishima's High level get stomped and don't do well in pro play... D Tier Also MainMas: Chloe and Eddy don't get to see pro play and take insane risks... S Tier
Kazuya is defo cheap not the cheapest but not D tier either even in god rank i can still cheese my way with hellsweep, and bamco keep buffing his ground hitting tool so get up to get 50/50ed again or get flipped with ff4.
Funny how people can say that Kazuya's "cheapness" requires execution. Do people really find it hard to do f,df,f that hard? If we're talking about PERFECT electrics, sure... but it's just a damn hellsweep. Even a normal god fist is alright if you're just spamming the cheesiness.
I bought this game yesterday, i was playing heihachi and i was scared about the complexity...no other fighting game is this hard and i play all of them
Put his own characters at the top of the list he was super honest I don't know what you even complaining about at this point I could see if he didn't do that but yeah he he's honest
Bs list. Basically chars he doesn't feel good losing against. And endlessly justifies all the chars he and overlooks their cheapness. Whats the fucking point then.
Kazuya is a character for high IQ people, yup. Also Kazuya: Every low I see, ws1,2 even if I don't confirm. Every time I don't do that, I keep buffering random electrics since the recovery is OP. But wait, what if they step those? Oh, hold my beer...
@@sjlbx just 50/50 …fast spamming electric…just frame 13 frame(well fast can we press it to get a high damage ‘’PEWGF’’ )and fast execution (when do we press DF2)(frame data knowledge)weak poking also my Kazuya is still blue rank(yaksa) he requires electric in a lot of situations
21:50 as a lei main yes I do love being quite cheesy. Im fairly new to the tekken scene, only been playing a few months now. Im still in yellow ranks so no one attack me I am practicing my fundamentals 🥺 But for real tho I just love lei as a character. I like having 13 stances lol. Even watched the legend of the drunken master with Jackie Chan, great movie btw. Still haven’t seen police story. I’ve heard good things about it though.
@@mr.almezeini647 a year is a bit exaggerated but it's understandable, you have to work your way up harder than half of the roster you can either main noctis and use one button to reach purple ranks in no time or main jin for example, who breaks your fingera to reach green it's just the nature of tekken
With this list I would have put almost literally every character down 1 more tier, except for a few here, and especially all of S from hworang and noctis to the right. This wasnt meant to be a difficulty tier list it was meant to be a cheese list
7:59 "50/50 is always in Kazuya favor. " - that is actually true for most of the 50/50 offense in Tekken. Attacker in most cases gets the advantage. Just write down all options, how opponent can punish them, your reward, his reward, et.c., and you will see that on average attacker gets more out of this than the defender.
The chance to get the opponent or that he will get you is still 50/50 so, yes you get more as an attacker but it still is a 50/50 chance so people bullshiting on him still doesn’t make up for it, even with your argumentation
IMO Steve is a very honest and fundamental character in high level of play but in beginner and intermediate you can just mash everyone to death with him and the opponent won't get a second to initiate any attack of their own. That's my experience playing against Steve mains in red-purple ranks. Lee also has some bs shenanigans that you can tie up pretty easily into flowcharts and stomp people with but i understand the execution involved. Overall really good list, I agree with most of the placements.
Unless the steve player is against an asuka player (i am one). Man just gets punished by the reversal and her cheap kick combo. Other stuff she can pull is her pressure into her grabs and her cheap mixup punishing. (Offensively her mixup game is bad but when she punishes with it, she gets like 50% and space between them)
@@chillskid You're not gonna win anything in these ranks with Jin, Kazuya, Bryan or Heihachi, no matter how hard you try to mash. Not the case with Steve
@@TheMethod8 Eh I just disagree bro. As a long time Steve main, I know how ineffective mashing is in intermediate play. Most of Steve's best moves can be ducked or high crushed. You really have to have strong fundamentals to perform consistently well online. Timing is your best friend as setting up counter hits is his main game plan. There's a reason why he has one of the lowest win rates. Is he as hard as Mishimas? Maybe not, but he certainly comes close.
@@TheMethod8 eh no, you can’t just mash with steve, if you think that, then you either A) kept mashing yourself and got counterhit by Steve or B) never tried to duck against him. B+1 is a high, his flicker jabs are highs, 121 is a high etc. Seriously, steve is very ineffective if he doesn’t get his counterhits, so you thinking that way about Steve, tells us that you got absolutely smoked by a couple of Steve players because you probably kept pressing. Steve can’t mash, with Steve you have to use calculated agression, you have to know what you’re doing. And to get Steve to red ranks, you have to be really decent, i struggle to stay in orange ranks with steve and believe me, mashing with steve doesn’t even work in yellow ranks.
As a sometimes AK player, he's more like a B. Even though his cheese is not super strong, it is very unique to him and requires a considerable amount of labbing. The biggest offender is d/b+4. It is an easily seeable low, but most character's WS punishers will whiff because AK recovers grounded. To really get some punishment going, you need to either low parry on reaction (which isn't very hard, but not exactly easy either), or learn a separate grounded punish just for this move. In case of my main, Jin, it's either 4~3, f,f+4 or dash d+2, for instance. Unlike most unblockables, 1+4 cannot be stepped at all, it can only be sidewalked left. And if your character's jab has a bad range/hitbox - floating him out of it is super inconsistent. It's better to sidewalk left still, because then you get backturned punish for like 100+ damage. Similar situation with his other unblockables. CD 3 has to be ducked, pretty much no other characters have this. U/f+1+2 hold has insane range, and has super weird tracking - sometimes it tracks fucking 180 degrees, sometimes it gets stepped by the smallest of sidesteps. A lot of his moves are "punishable" as in they are -10 or worse, but the timing is so strict that you can rarely land it online. D+3+4 and its followups are pretty cheesy as well IMO. And these are just the first that come to mind.
@@justaduck6879 they certainly aren't good, but against players who aren't familiar with them - they work, 100%. I wanted to fucken cry when I got into red ranks spamming d/b+4 and never getting punished, d+3+4,1 and never getting ducked, using 1+4 for oki, etc. Getting AK to the same rank as my real mains who I play for like a year now, after 3-4 days. Ofc people started countering these things more often as I went on, but then as you say - AK has strong moves you just switch over to. I wouldn't say the backswing blow is nuclear cheese, but it's a pretty cheap. ffn2 however I totally forgot about, it's grade A busted cheese, especially vs characters who don't launch at -14 while standing.

As someone that just got into Tekken a week ago and instantly became a Shaheen main, this video put a giant smile on my face to see his is at the bottom of the barrel :)

I can't tell you how bored I was playing Leroy when he first came out because of how OP he was. To me the easier the character is the less fun they are to use because they're nothing to them really.
Well in tekken 3 I used to play eddy once in a while and it was fun... it was fun making my friends rage quit lol
Yeah I agree
Same I got bored cause he was perfect and had everything
Wym there's a lot to then, just abuse then till the devs nerd the fuck outta the
Yeah I play claudio casually, and playing braindead at that too but I beat the crap out of xiayou, while playing with yoshimitsu against that piece of shit xiayou I find it fun even though I get shredded by frame advantage and obnoxious recovery
Pretty much every character in the game has a at least one 'cheap' move, its just more so about how badly can some characters get away with it over others. Marduk's tackle IMO is the cheapest most OP move in the game, especially as a RD. Literally no character in the game can do anything anywhere close to what he can do.
Fr 😭 I can’t even play Marduk but got too vanquisher legit just using tackle 🤦🏽♂️🤣 and it’s taken me months too get there with heihachi 🤣

I love when TMM makes these types of videos, very interesting stuff
The only thing that justifies Raven being in A is the fact that she gets away with very punishable stuff due to no matchup knowledge. Otherwise, she's B or even high C.
Not only that but her would be punishable moves often have extensions. It’s constantly a battle of “should I try to punish that or should I wait to punish the extension”
same for chloe lol and she's in S
@@soprecise7993Yeah wtf is that about, and you cant pressure her either always a risk of that goddamn parry teleport shit. Half her moves high crush so no jab interrupt either.
Kazuya has a low win rate not because he's honest
There's a lot more to it
Story mode, him being the original main character makes him one of the most played characters in the game with a loooot of new comers picking him up
And since he's "difficult" this also means he won't be getting a lot of wins due to that.
Absolutely true, but for some of us newer players just kinda want to learn fundamentals before moving on to other characters because if you start with a cheap character, there's progression but it doesn't really feel like you learn much compared to a character who is just straight up honest and helps you get into the Tekken mindset.
No need for apostrophes. Kazuya is genuinely hard
I'd argue that tekken 7 benefits his play style but he is still difficult to play
Paul is the most played character in the game, he doesn't have a low win rate lol
@@caiobruno8006 because paul is braindead easy and one of the best characters of the game
Kazuya is not there anymore, his electric's whiff recovery is stupid now
Kazuya is definitely cheesy. These people are biased. Those sweeps are used at least 7 times in 3 rounds. And Kazuya players only use 3 to 4 moves to win and all those moves are cheesy.
@@since2133 yeah exactly. Learn what to do against those 4 moves and your opponents rhythm and put the pressure on when you take your turn back. It's an uphill battle for Kaz and I've never played him so you can't call me biased.
There's a reason he has one of the lowest win loss ratios
@@sixsideddeath5529 there’s no reason to explain myself to you because you mentioned that you’re a Kazuya main. You will never get it.
Kazuya is like Anna. Both are 50/50 based characters. Are you telling me that you can tell when you see a low sweep or a mid is coming from those 2 characters? There’s nothing for us to learn against those 2 characters. All we gotta do is guess if it’s a high or a low or mid. There’s no learning there, just guessing.
@@since2133 literally said ive never played him. you just suck lol. for every blocked hellsweep Kaz has to get 4 more to break even. all my laz m/u win ratios are above 50% because once you figure out the player Kaz has nothing. sucks to suck kid
ye he's at least c. Not S not, you can argue B tier in low to mid ranks purely because of df2, and his 50/50.
Finally 🧀 list 🙏 how about a combo damage tier list or movement (overall) next ?

Nice, something to watch with my dinner. Btw Lars, if you dont know the matchup, its like playing vs master raven or lei. Should be A
nah lars is no where near A you can counter his cheese really easy. in blue ranks maybe but green rank and above he is b at best
no
Half the characters are cheap, the other half are almost as cheap. Tekken is cheap XD.
Hehehehehehehehehehehehehe!!!!!! lmao! XDDDDDD
Exactly. Even some of my friends realize this game is bullshit. Can’t disagree there. I even play Lili who is cheap as well. I guess just play it to your best. Don’t care about the rest.
It ain't easy being cheezy. 😆
I think some cheese is useful for teaching beginners fundamentals like throw breaks and movement. For instance, Bryan's Snake Edge teaches players to block low and punish. But a character having so much cheese that you have spend hours lagging the matchup will just ruin the game for low and intermediate players.
I would argue the difficulty tierlist looks similar except for akuma and geese. There is somewhat of a correlation of difficult characters vs cheese characters.
Anna feels cheap imo. She has Nina can opener string and does she really need 2 lows that launch for combos? Just seems a bit too much. I personally knew quite a few ppl struggling to get out of yellow ranks get all the way up to mighty ruler with Anna. Even they would tell you she's cheap.
All her low are launch punishable, her can opener is just a knowledge check. Her crouch mix up is defo scary, just ssr her alot she can't really carry that far before u need to learn tekken unlike fahk and leroy
@@jackyv626 true. Anna isnt cheap at all I would say. Nothing but fundimentals
@@crazy911wman nah if u don't know the match up she's one of the cheapest character
@@jackyv626 I was joking :D Ofcourse shes cheap af

I definitely understood the King placement initially, but when it was all said and done King is cheaper than about half of the characters above him 😂
If u don’t lab rolling death cradle you can lose to pretty bad players.
If you’re like me and have to warm up before being able to react to throws then running into King players early can get u blown up by otherwise free Kings, not to mention a less than ideal connection makes giant swing and hopkick basically a 50/50
You then get a fear of blocking which gets u counter hit all day.
Your fundamentals go out the window and suddenly your on equal ground with a player with nothing but flowcharts. That’s the definition of cheap
You dont have to lab death cradle lol. You cancel it by pressing 2. you have to guess its that simple
Be mad about giant swing sure, but if you are eating the huge chain throws then you had to have guessed wrong multiple times in a row.
This is absolutely true some characters are cheap and some are hard to learn

There was a time where I would see this game as if it was like some kind of contest. "Who has the most cheap stuff, and who can abuse it the most?". That's how I saw the game once.
What changed? Because that's how everyone should view this game. It's cheap af overall, compared to almost every other top tier fighting game, especially online.
@@seanyoung9014 Tekken is pretty much the only fighter I've invested time in. What differentiates Tekken from other fighters regarding cheapness?
@@dyhrbergdk9541 Well, that's a matter of opinion but I feel like having a way to eventually parry air juggling the same way you can parry low blows would put a lot more emphasis on skill than in spending the entire round trying to catch someone off guard and juggle them to death. I would also appreciate if they would fix some of the buggy issues that happen in walled stages in the corners. I've lost so many close matches because the character suddenly reversed positions in a corner mid combo. I know it's a matter of personal preference but I also hate the way you can continuously combo someone up off the ground and I'm talking about starting a combo that way, not an ongoing combo. It is what it is, though. I'm not as annoyed as I was when I first made these comments weeks ago. I'm just more used to the mechanics of old school 2D fighters.

I love you bro you kept tekken alive for me I like videos like these
After a year of tekken, I realized that tekken was not a game about honesty, more like a battle of cheese, even with kazuya I always try to be the most scummish and ''unfair'' as possible.
I used to have a warrior kazuya and a purple rank katarina. Kazuya was always my main, I got bored of not playing my main and I kept trying until I got my kazuya to suzaku. Just play the character you enjoy even if it is harder that way, in the end it is going to be way more rewarding. I never felt any feeling of accomplishment getting katarina to purple.

😅
Yet The Mishima player thinks hellsweeps and okis are honourable tactics
A character that has 50,000 ways to launch you, has running bullshit from across the screen, so many crush moves, and it requires more effort to fight than it is to use. Compare that to a Mishima, hellsweep is extremely UNSAFE, electrics are high and require a just frame, can easily be side-stepped to the left, almost no gimmicks (Except for DJ but fuck him), they are super reliant on conditioning before they even get to play properly which is especially clear with electric pressure since no one respects it (compare that to Josie that can just fight anyone without setup).
TL;DR
Mishimas take extreme risks to do anything meaningful, Josie players win because of the smallest of risks done by their opponent. Press buttons until you win.
Yeah kind of absurd
Kazumi should be the queen of cheese but it's d tier for some reasons
Kata is literally kazumi but worse in every single way but because she has a garbage snake edge that works only in the lower ranks and she is s?
Literally never heard someone saying "wish I was playing vs kazumi" lmao
Another cheese character main in denial. Own up.
I straight up don't think Josie is cheap at all and I main Steve. She's legitimately steppable from her lean back stance and while she do be having some plus frames, you have 60 seconds to choose how to win the round, spending a few of those to block and learn the enemy's attack patterns is to your benefit. I haven't met a single Josie I couldn't beat in a long set, but of course that is a anecdote.
anyone know the song that starts at 3:30?
edit: nvm i found it, its called: Descent into Cerberon - Sonic Mayhem
I never a see a more real tier list than this, thx a lot I totally agree
When top 10 broken moves scrupman?
I agree with this list for the most part. I play Paul and I pretty much spammed my way into the red ranks. Maybe he could be S tier just because he could spam a lot and unless you are going for big boy combos, almost no execution required. As for the bottom of the list (C&D), whenever I face them since the ruler ranks, it is always a tough match.
I cant play with Paul, i just get outspammed always. Oh god, how much i hate braindead kids using only lows/grabs/imbalanced strings. What is the point of teaching characters if you lose to spammer who doesn't even know any staple combos
I remember playing a long set of ranked against a leroy and ended up getting a promotion for myself with heihachi. The leroy messaged me saying I didn't deserve that promo cuz i kept spamming ff2...
I mostly agree with the tier list, but with 2 exceptions:
1. King should be at least A because not only no one on online matches break throws, he also has quite some pretty disgusting oki and wall setups. I have a friend who's a Fujin King and even though I've fought his King for hundreds of times I still can't get used to King's setups, there's just too many. He plays King, but it almost feels like I'm playing against Xiaoyu and that's one solid proof that King certainly could be cheesier than you think.
2. It doesn't make sense to see Eliza not in the same tier as other 2D chars. Sure literally no one plays her, but she's really hard to use, and compared to the other 2Ds she's arguably the weakest. She has the least execution output (how much one can get from paying the execution grind) compared to other 2D's. Sure she has lots abusable moves, but so do Geese and Akuma. I think it's either put Eliza down to A-tier or put Geese and Akuma up to S-tier.
TBFIt takes a long ass time to learn all the set ups for different situations with king because like while there are a ton of amazing set ups they are hella niche and can be difficult to pull off.
I agree with the eliza especially coz once you learn the match up (which is pretty easy coz 1. She doesn't have a million moves and 2. All her lows are launch punishable) her gimmicky stuff becomes useless
@@khacks1238 That's true, but I think the reward is immense considering most of the time people don't know shit about the setups and the only way to get used is to find a player who's good with that. It's borderline impossible to just watch a guide video and expect to have the muscle memory to counter those setups overnight.
@@lc744 Yeah, and TMM didn't really try to explain why she's S (almost as if he's avoiding it) which was kinda disappointing tbh. It's clear that he's being too biased.
TMM plays king, and i think that makes him understand his "honesty". King has no pressure tools at all, he has like 3 plus moves which is neat cause if not he would be broken. The thing is once you know his basic setups, you find it really difficult to open your oponnent if he has a good defence, and then you need to start playing real tekken.
Noctis, Lei and Anna? Tmm roasted every main i have lol!! I just like them cause of the character! I had no idea what their moves looked like when i picked them as mains
The tier list we’ve all wanted and deserve.
Yoshimitsu cheap for real? You have any Idea how much time i Put to punishing Most the roster that has attacks, faster than supersonic? I have usually only 3-4 moves that fast enough to even punish from 200 attacks.
Props for Quake ost in background :)
I agree with almost everything, i just cant see how is Kazuya lower than Bryan PS: i'm a Kazuya main as well
I would argue Bryan is harder to play well, but he's definitely got more cheese. It really is opinion who's easier to win with.
Command throws, orbital, strings and parry probably.
@@hehen00b20 what command throws? He has a 1+2, thats it
Orbital, 3+4 and strings. Orbitals online are such bs because you can't dash block. Kazuya only has the Electric.
@@jR0xas strings eh, they're all high mids and -. Theres 1 string that has a low ender, but still.
As a Nina main I have to disagree (obviously lol). She can be cheap at beginner and intermediate level (can opener, mashing pressure, etc.) but she has no panick move nor a hopkick and at advanced/tournament level she's so punishable it's crazy, one of the reasons why you don't see her in tournaments. So I feel like she belongs to B or A top, but definitely not S.
I say B. I used to main nina and asuka (now just asuka). Nina is one of those characters that is meme or get memed on. Not like other characters. She does have some very cheap stuff going with her but it's not marduk or leroy or fahk levels of i want to rip my hair out yknow?
As a person whose been playing tekken 7 for only a year I agree that whenever I get into a match whether it be casual or ranked if I see a lucky Chloe or kunimitsu I leave the match instantly
Just don't rematch. It's not worth raising your disconnect rate.
Actual Start Time is 10:07
You’re a god.
I can't get it to be honest. You rate some of the characters like Bryan as characters played in high level and some of them as green-orange rank characters like law or maven. I can't see how Bryan is hard to play in lower ranks. But i can see how he is in higher ranks. Same with law, maven and Shaheen (pretty cheap in higher ranks imo). But that's your opinion of course and ill take it
Let me voice "my own" opinion. From my fights against Bryan since low to now upper intermediate rank, he has good tools, but not abusable string/setup/cheesy stuffs. He approaches and attacks "fundamentally" (in contrast of some bs like Julia party crasher) and defends against me "fundamentally" (in contrast of some bs like Feng's bunches of evasive and panic moves). To me Bryan should be ranked below any Mishimas. EWGF by itself is abusable.
@@thoraero His hatchet kick is the definition of bs. Half his moveset is safe ch launchers. He is also really hard to step. Bryan is quite cheap.
@@jasonkennedy6844 Idk to me it's a very good move but has never given me a big trouble (I'm violet rank). I'd still argue that you can counter Bryan fundamentally. He's not Feng or Hwo who I need a very specific way to "respectfully" deal with. And that's what I call real bs.

But for real tho I just love lei as a character. I like having 13 stances lol. Even watched the legend of the drunken master with Jackie Chan, great movie btw. Still haven’t seen police story. I’ve heard good things about it though.
There are 2 'drunken master' movies with him both worth watching 👍
LOL few monthes to get to yellow rank. i needed almost a year of playing dragunov to reach green rank😂😂
@@mr.almezeini647 a year is a bit exaggerated but it's understandable, you have to work your way up harder than half of the roster
you can either main noctis and use one button to reach purple ranks in no time
or main jin for example, who breaks your fingera to reach green
it's just the nature of tekken
@@Tartersauce101 yea I had to watch the 2nd one first cause I wasn’t able to find The Drunken master anywhere online
I main Lei and got to red ranks with the help of my now yellow rank Heihachi. Learning the harder characters will help you gameplay overall. Try it!
nice theme for a tierlist
Bears are interesting i wouldn't have thought they would be some of the least played if i didn't know
With this list I would have put almost literally every character down 1 more tier, except for a few here, and especially all of S from hworang and noctis to the right.
This wasnt meant to be a difficulty tier list it was meant to be a cheese list
which it is. The ease of use of a character amplifies its cheese. If a move is super good but hard to execute its not cheesy
@@crazy911wman So why is Akuma high on the list? And Kazuya so low on the list?
Or is hellsweep hard to execute?
@@estoylaroca Maybe because only 3 people at most in the world knows how to fight akuma? I dunno maybe
@@crazy911wman Lul. You're maybe one of 3 people who *DON'T" know how to fight Akuma.
@@estoylaroca Oh so according to you majority of people know how to fight akuma. What a joker
Heihachi d/b2~FCdf4 into ff2 low rank cheese 😤🤣 I felt like a god till I got too red ranks 🤣
That shit works so good at low ranks lmfao
@@MrDxfusion honestly massive damage and a free launch almost every time 🤣
King should be in S because you can set the buttons up for all his chain combos and spam the same button for him to cheese you to death.
When that's the case you just gotta mash 1 then you'll break all the throws
Duuuude, the playlist pleeease, so fucking good.
"Don't care about this character" Sad shit... Raven isn't cheap :')
Raven tiny hurt box. Never used so lack of knowledge. Stupid wall combo dmg might be highest in the game. Quick unblockables. teleport. Sooooo fair
frr shes not that cheap
@@rpgtimefire cry about it lmaoo
@@zzenjuro what did you say.
7:59 "50/50 is always in Kazuya favor. " - that is actually true for most of the 50/50 offense in Tekken. Attacker in most cases gets the advantage. Just write down all options, how opponent can punish them, your reward, his reward, et.c., and you will see that on average attacker gets more out of this than the defender.
is that common sense i hear from a guy who mains 1 button? rare these days
The chance to get the opponent or that he will get you is still 50/50 so, yes you get more as an attacker but it still is a 50/50 chance so people bullshiting on him still doesn’t make up for it, even with your argumentation
and that is what I call the cheapest in tekken 7
IMO Steve is a very honest and fundamental character in high level of play but in beginner and intermediate you can just mash everyone to death with him and the opponent won't get a second to initiate any attack of their own. That's my experience playing against Steve mains in red-purple ranks.
Lee also has some bs shenanigans that you can tie up pretty easily into flowcharts and stomp people with but i understand the execution involved.
Overall really good list, I agree with most of the placements.
Unless the steve player is against an asuka player (i am one). Man just gets punished by the reversal and her cheap kick combo. Other stuff she can pull is her pressure into her grabs and her cheap mixup punishing. (Offensively her mixup game is bad but when she punishes with it, she gets like 50% and space between them)
This can really be said about all characters in beginner to intermediate. Relative to the cast, Steve is extremely honest and difficult character.
@@chillskid You're not gonna win anything in these ranks with Jin, Kazuya, Bryan or Heihachi, no matter how hard you try to mash. Not the case with Steve
@@TheMethod8 Eh I just disagree bro. As a long time Steve main, I know how ineffective mashing is in intermediate play. Most of Steve's best moves can be ducked or high crushed. You really have to have strong fundamentals to perform consistently well online. Timing is your best friend as setting up counter hits is his main game plan. There's a reason why he has one of the lowest win rates. Is he as hard as Mishimas? Maybe not, but he certainly comes close.
@@TheMethod8 eh no, you can’t just mash with steve, if you think that, then you either A) kept mashing yourself and got counterhit by Steve or B) never tried to duck against him. B+1 is a high, his flicker jabs are highs, 121 is a high etc.
Seriously, steve is very ineffective if he doesn’t get his counterhits, so you thinking that way about Steve, tells us that you got absolutely smoked by a couple of Steve players because you probably kept pressing. Steve can’t mash, with Steve you have to use calculated agression, you have to know what you’re doing. And to get Steve to red ranks, you have to be really decent, i struggle to stay in orange ranks with steve and believe me, mashing with steve doesn’t even work in yellow ranks.
As a sometimes AK player, he's more like a B. Even though his cheese is not super strong, it is very unique to him and requires a considerable amount of labbing.
The biggest offender is d/b+4. It is an easily seeable low, but most character's WS punishers will whiff because AK recovers grounded. To really get some punishment going, you need to either low parry on reaction (which isn't very hard, but not exactly easy either), or learn a separate grounded punish just for this move. In case of my main, Jin, it's either 4~3, f,f+4 or dash d+2, for instance.
Unlike most unblockables, 1+4 cannot be stepped at all, it can only be sidewalked left. And if your character's jab has a bad range/hitbox - floating him out of it is super inconsistent. It's better to sidewalk left still, because then you get backturned punish for like 100+ damage.
Similar situation with his other unblockables. CD 3 has to be ducked, pretty much no other characters have this. U/f+1+2 hold has insane range, and has super weird tracking - sometimes it tracks fucking 180 degrees, sometimes it gets stepped by the smallest of sidesteps.
A lot of his moves are "punishable" as in they are -10 or worse, but the timing is so strict that you can rarely land it online.
D+3+4 and its followups are pretty cheesy as well IMO.
And these are just the first that come to mind.
All the moves you listed are complete garbage lol. His cheap moves are his backswing blow and ffn2
@@justaduck6879 they certainly aren't good, but against players who aren't familiar with them - they work, 100%. I wanted to fucken cry when I got into red ranks spamming d/b+4 and never getting punished, d+3+4,1 and never getting ducked, using 1+4 for oki, etc. Getting AK to the same rank as my real mains who I play for like a year now, after 3-4 days.
Ofc people started countering these things more often as I went on, but then as you say - AK has strong moves you just switch over to. I wouldn't say the backswing blow is nuclear cheese, but it's a pretty cheap. ffn2 however I totally forgot about, it's grade A busted cheese, especially vs characters who don't launch at -14 while standing.
