Knee has been struggling hard. He was playing so timid with his Dragunov at Evo Japan. And he was dropping combos. JDCR got eliminated by LowHigh Drag vs Drag.
@@dacatindahat8275story wise, yes. But his gameplay isn’t. The SNK crouch cancels are great, his charged move is amazing, his pokes are useful, and his SS2 is one of the best in the game.
Hey Mainman, thought you might be interested that Jimmy J Tran is currently competing at Evo Jpn and defeated SuperAkouma yesterday in pools. There's a channel named "Meese" that's uploading recordings of his matches
i wonder if the reason the old guard players are struggling is because they have had so many years of tekken 7 just ingrained into them that alot of the dumb plays or brain fart moments are because muscle memory for years just instant comes out and loses them the match compared to the newer younger players who dont have that much muscle memory ingrained into them?
It's some of that, for sure but not even t7, all the way back to t5 bro, also so many things in this game track, tons of powercrushes that make CH launchers less viable, and the changes to legacy stuff like getup kicks being safe is so weird to change as well
@@iura_nagami Same. I have no idea what was hype about this match at all besides the whole fighting for their country thing. The match itself was no more hype than any other match in the tournament.
And, exactly, what constitute a "true" tekken game? Stay in difense as a f*cking turtle, do a launcher, and juggle? If that's the case, thank god is not a real tekken anymore.
@@dacatindahat8275 I know it was the case. A little reminder. Virtua Fighter, the most technical fighting game ever, didn't require that type of playing. So you're not superior to the "mashing noobs", you just can't attack/prefer an extremely defensive gameplay. Thank god it seems that Bandai Namco isn't aligned to that vision.
@@Ryo-xx1lm yes alienating the fan base. Thank God! The game will die because not only will the casuals go away so will the regulars. You're not bright are you? And for the record you're admitting it's there to help mashers and noobs so they don't have to learn to play. I never said shit about mashers or noobs. Dumb dumb.
@@dacatindahat8275 I was saying the exact countrary. It's called sarcasm, in case you missed it. It requires a lot more IQ to constantly figuring out how to attack and find a "hole" in a defense that simply defend and, at the firts occasion, demolish the opponent with a neverendind juggle. Also a monkey can learn how to do a combo. Constantly findind a way to beat the opponent tactics is a different case.
What is this?! A fun match to watch?! No Azucena? Dragunov? Alisa? Feng? Absolute sorcery.
Fr I can't believe it
Watch Evo Japan top 8 then 👍
@@dudebro484 Nah trash, just saw a Steve vs Lili and thought "damn, this is interesting". Until the Steve player lost and switched to Dragunov. Boring
@@dannyrptbecause Steve couldn't stand a chance against Lily, it seems Lily is also strong character
@@dannyrptand then lost with drag 😅

As a Shaheen main, i'm happy the character is more famous now, he is really cool in Tekken 8.
In Korea Shaheen had a small era
Cool? He's so plain and boring. I'm glad youblike character but no one else does. He's boring.

@@j.i.nthenobody54 I appreciate your opinion. No issues with it but respectfully disagree. To each their own. ^.^
As a shaheen main im happy hes getting the recognition he deserves. Hes really fun to play.
IMO, the pool matches should be best 3 of 5 since the game involves such high damage and quick rounds.

@@carloshernandez3177 that's fair alot of these guys been playing since t5 so everything's changed this game
Shaheen is so awesome.
lol the mainman Canadian accent 😂
Sick commentary. One of the commentators reminds me of Dill from Stickin' Around. "HOLYYY MACKEREL!"
One minute gang?
Oh no I need a life

Where is the paul? :(

@xtrippinzedx1985 thank you bro, you are the goat
“tHiS MiGhT KiLl!”
*has more than a few hits of hp left*
The floor explosion does a lot of damage but he didn't get it.
@@JohnSmith-j7nhe got the floor explosion mid combo what you mean?
Buff Jack its sad to look at him... Why they nerfed him conpared to T7(
He seems fine to me I’m at TG with him rn
@@Chris_7366wp my guy,im a purple and man it's tough but they nerfed his damage badly
Certified geish moment
Sheikh Shaheen Al Ayoubi ibn Rashid al Farasi Muhammad Rizwani is easily top 5
If that was the best round of the tourney we didnt miss much.
facts lol
I think they accept as best because no one picked dragunov azucena feng alisa so yes this might be best round xd
Shaheen is just so boring to watch 😂
This comment is boring to read
You're living in the past.
I tend to be optimistic but I just don't see how that was an interesting match at all? Like what was special there?
Wow....

All these pro players only combo spamming...
lmaooo
Bro you do realize tournaments require you to abuse the most optimal and absurd tactics right? What you want everyone to do twitter combo’s?
It’s almost like it’s optimal
Sounded like a true green rank 👨🍳🔥
Most boring ass match i've witnessed holy f 0 hype
The game does suck. Its not tekken anymore. I'm winning 70% of the time and ive already mostly stopped playing.
And, exactly, what constitute a "true" tekken game?
Stay in difense as a f*cking turtle, do a launcher, and juggle?
