For anyone trying to pick up mishsimas, wave dash is just forward, quarter circle forward. you cancel every quarter circle with forward over and over again. And electric is just old school DP or the Z motion. You press 2 on the down forward portion of your "DP". To be more precise the very moment you move down into forward you should be simultaneously pressing the 2 button. I promise it is a lot easier to do than what you probably think.
Wind God Fist is a DP. EWGF is a dumb muscle memory check for people that have practiced it for days. 1 frame windows are ridiculous in this day and age.
Me watching the opening to this after watching all the Victor videos where Max gets people out with the teleport slash: Well well well, how the turns have tabled
I always refer to myself as a fraudulent Mishima, but dude, Jin's just too darn fun! I can barely wavedash, but only on the left side and I cannot for the life of me do consistent electrics. However, I refuse to not use the character just because I play him like an amateur.
I kinda disagree with Jin's Heat Mode sucking but I'll chalk it up to Max not really having the time to experiment with it much since he's not a huge Jin main in T8 anyway. But his Heat state is actually really versatile outside of the universal options, the 4 option off his Heat Burst allows him to reset to neutral where he thrives or make him +15 at the wall, and Omen stance mixups at the wall are still insanely nutty, add things like chip damage and Heat Dash off of things like FF2 and 1+2 and he's got tons of ways to use it.
i started playing tekken 8 cause of you, and ive been maining yoshimitsu cause he looked very cool and i havent had this amount of fun in a fighting game in a long time.
Seriously Tekken has some of the best fighting game music I’ve ever heard in my life. What’s the name of the song at around 13 minutes when the azucena match starts?
Blitz people with 1,3,4 1,3,4 1,2,3, to ,3,1,4 mix up fast strings. For Zen: 3,1,F and 4,2,F and 4+F,F. Don't forget Zen 1,2 after 1 press DF for break step into a hell sweep, wind fist or strait up launcher.
Them adding stuff that kinda pulls Jin away from the playstyle of other Mishimas is actually cool flavor, too, cause it shows how disconnected he wants to be from his family's lineage. Namely from Kazuya.
@@VerGiLL1 Lots of his best tools are easily steppable to the right and his negativa mixup can be backdashed from all but one set-up iirc. While he isn't trash, he doesn't seem to be crazy.
I think it’s safe to say myself and a lot of people brought this game watching creators like you play👏👍 it’s intense and motivating to get better or even to that level 💪
From my experience in playing Jin is that BandCo went out of their way to make Jin accessible in 8 and reverse course from his iteration in 7. With the jab range fixed, easier lows that aren't as impactful as before, and "Meme Stance" you don't even have to Wave-U-Wave-U or hit the electrics to play him well. You can just play a solid, fundamental poke and punish game to go rather far with him. Now when you CAN do all the Mishima stuff is when he gets outright oppressive and why people are shouting that he's problematic top tier that has everything.
Can confirm at the end. Im a Yoshi at Tenryu and still barely react or try to block lows. I will low parry eventually in a set if I eat the same low several times
As a jin main i agree lol. Im not gonna act like he's low tier because that's not the case jin is strong. But sometimes i feel like i gotta work x3 as hard as my opponent to get the win.
I just got t8 and decided to mess around with jin. I don’t plan for him to be one of my mains but I’ll definitely use him as I get my fundamentals down in tekken 8
I hit mighty ruler with Jin as a new player to the game. It was kind of hard but I’m slowly getting him down and I’ll be sure to hit fujin with enough practice
If im to be completely honest, Jin is EXTREMELY ACCESSIBLE in this game, maybe a little too accessible. His entire gameplan in just demon paw, forward 4, and down 2. Your jabs can cover you highs and now you dont have to do electric at all. So if you were ever hesitant to pick him up this game just lets you play him with no worry.
Nobody thought Jin was hard, everyone has been saying he’s extremely dumbed don from tekken 7, honestly I don’t think a single character is particularly hard in this games except for maybe like 4 characters.
“I’ve done other things in my life than play mishimas.” You ain’t gotta come for me like that
*confused DORIYAH*
Facts damn 😂😂😂😂 personally attacked
Right? Like I don't wake up and do 5 electrics every morning and wave dash to the shower.
Kauzya main since Tekken 1. I feel personally attacked by this statement Max, I thought we were good friends. I'll see you in ranked. LOL
By other things he meant subconsciously cheesing as Victor.

Yeah I practice that mostly on the left side. I normally think of it as moving forward and ducking. The DP motion doesn't work too often for me

How can she get hard? She's not a man. Now if I sat on Jin's lap, it would be a different story.

Jin is a fraudulent Mishima.
@@via_negativa6183 You're not wrong about that
I could say the same regarding Kazuya. I can't do consistent electrics and wavedashes for the life of me.

And in a pinch with the same weaknesses as an armor move you can use the omen to reverse someone's pressure back at them when your back's to the wall
I wish he could go into Mishima stance without heat tbh. Just how bryan can use his modifier outside of heat
Music dropping on the kick at 5:58 went hard
What song is that?

EXPULSION EXPULSION 🤺🤺
Toooooooola
KUTTAS
SHINY!
Now repeat this x100 and there you have your average match against a Victor player.
Truly hoping we get final battle Jin as a character
I want that Mishima style Jin so bad man
@@FourRunner30 me too, mixed with Kazama counters
tekken 9 should have that karate-mishima-kazama style for jin

Oh it seems jin is excited to see me
I love facing Steve as Jin it just becomes 2 dudes smacking the piss out of each other.
"Can you have fun as a shitty Jin?" Lmao poor Dood
1:41 to be fair, The Mishima Brain is wired to have monke levels of dopamine/fun spamming consecutives PEWGF in a single combo.
Them adding stuff that kinda pulls Jin away from the playstyle of other Mishimas is actually cool flavor, too, cause it shows how disconnected he wants to be from his family's lineage. Namely from Kazuya.
12:52 oow ow ooow
Harder than victor that's for sure...
And Eddy too. A combo where you hit 3 8 times for 61 damage… what are they thinking over there Bando?
@@pyxelpub8251 Combo execution isn't really what makes a character hard. Eddy is actually not very good in T8 from what we can tell so far.
@@tystu2585Idk where you be hearing that, specially this early in the character release.
@@VerGiLL1 Lots of his best tools are easily steppable to the right and his negativa mixup can be backdashed from all but one set-up iirc. While he isn't trash, he doesn't seem to be crazy.
Again it's too early to tell the character just got released, did you just take someone word on it ?
Always wanted to get into Tekken cause I thought Jin was cool. Happy with T8 Jin.
I don't even bother with either thrusting uppercut or hookfist, Jin has so many other moves now.
You're missing out on huge damage. But you don't need those moves to have fun so keep at it.
Trust me, when you do get comfortable doing electrics and can whip em out for combos to maximize damage.. the feeling is better than $EX.
@@ryanyaques9500 I seriously doubt that.
Great Jin Online Matches Max.
It is fun Playing different Characters in Tekken 8 and seeing what they can do.
is that azucena dressed up like a weird version of 2B? for me the bird, sword and blindfold are giving off those vibes
Hey man we work with what we got not like we have a ton of customization options
@@Hinokami777 hey man i aint bashin it i liked it a lot XD
Definitely can he is my first pick as a new tekken player and it came pretty naturally as you play almost at shinryu always learning
I think it’s safe to say myself and a lot of people brought this game watching creators like you play👏👍 it’s intense and motivating to get better or even to that level 💪
You dont need electrics when the character has built in electrics lmfao

That steve pressed buttons like there's no tomorrow, he really mashed
JIN IS WHAT 🗣️🗣️‼️‼️
The real journey starts now
This Tekken Intro is So Fire My God 🔥
17:58 Such a fun round
kinda crazy to hear Max say he never played as our boi a.k.a the main character of the story like damn hahaha
Not sure if you're specifically talking about TK8 but Jin was Max's favorite in the Tekken 3/Tag 1 days and he played him for a bit in Tekken 7.
Well dang. Going from Victor, Lars, and now Jin. Even though he saids his Jin is sloppy. He's doing really well here.
Can confirm at the end. Im a Yoshi at Tenryu and still barely react or try to block lows. I will low parry eventually in a set if I eat the same low several times
As a jin main i agree lol. Im not gonna act like he's low tier because that's not the case jin is strong. But sometimes i feel like i gotta work x3 as hard as my opponent to get the win.
You should do a Tekken 8 character tier list of most beginner friendly to the most sweaty
I just got t8 and decided to mess around with jin. I don’t plan for him to be one of my mains but I’ll definitely use him as I get my fundamentals down in tekken 8
Phrasing
I hit mighty ruler with Jin as a new player to the game. It was kind of hard but I’m slowly getting him down and I’ll be sure to hit fujin with enough practice

As a long-time Jin main, he may very well be the most honest character in the roster of Tekken 8.
As a jin main, you're absolutely right, and i can't agree more.
*Laughs in Kaz mains*
lol
Paul seems honest he just hits pretty hard
Steve mains are crying in the corner looking at this comment...
He pulled a Max on Max and Max couldn’t handle it lmao
As a jin main i don't Electric as much as i should. And i should do it but i dont know if i should anyway period
As a Jim main i can confirm you can still have fun as a shitty Jim.
can you play jin? Yes, Can you have fun? Yes, But its much more enjoyable if you can dot that crazy electrics
I love Max's vids. Is there any chance he adds a lil more motion blur than what's originally in the game??
i dont know why but my whole body seizes up trying to do an ewgf in an actual match. my brain turns off. heart function ceases. i die (in the game).
And so am I
WHAT DID HE SAYYYYYYYY????
Max learning how to play jin quickly 😅 he plays better with him than i do
Always go for the lows, got it
Can confirm. In Tenryu as Yoshi. I barely block lows and sometimes I just do spinning low kicks in neutral and will still hit
Tekken 8: Jin Is Hard
Max. Wording. Please.
You know who is also hard?😏😏
Jack🗿
Jin is barely a Mishima in this game. You can practically ignore his Mishima stuff and be fine
Nobody thought Jin was hard, everyone has been saying he’s extremely dumbed don from tekken 7, honestly I don’t think a single character is particularly hard in this games except for maybe like 4 characters.
HELL YE, MORE TEKKEN
How are they Eliminators with that level?
I'm playing warriors like an Evo final
Shitty Jin here, that shit is hard bro. im still learning and I've mained him since release.
I'm hard watching this
Nice max playing a character that isnt 100% brain dead for once
So I'm ready for a week of Kuma.
Weird my tekken doee not look beauty like this specialy tsukishima... Last time a check my graphics are in ultra
So am I
Not me reading those player names in the intro like I'm Nardwuar
2:22 That damage, what the heck is that move o.o
quarter circle forward 2. gets buffed in heat with more damage too
This is Max with a bad Jin...
Mind you he's going up against subpar players in this video, but he's still pretty decent, as should be expected because he's played Jin in the past.
Hey, I can get use to Jin with his EWGF input when I get it right.
d/f+2 to Electrics was so easy for me
I honestly don't care about anything else other than his ff7 rebirth series
18:04 rock howard 😂
Man nothing against my Tekken brethren, but I kinda can't wait for Max to get back to SF6. Tekken is great but it's not my game 😅.
Wassup Max? Good matches bro! :)
Please nerf that Victor's U1+2.

Yo what OST is playin this vid!? Bangers n mash🎉

any one can play victoe but jin is a little complicated
Sick intro
It's probably been asked somewhere here in these comments already but does anyone know where max got that shirt???
Is it me or is there something wrong with your saturation on your video 🤷🏾♂️
Why does Steve sound like Captain Falcon?
He's WHAT now?
I was so sad about how they dumbed him down and took away a lot of his cool tech in t8. He was my fav in T7
