- Main #1. Drag is too swaggy and I'm carried by CD4 :)
In this video, I'll be playing the Tekken 8 Ranked matches as a small little "Road to Red Ranks Series" and using the character Dragunov. Here are some of the matches I played and how they went.
If you're interested in playing the Tekken 8 and want to know how to use the character Dragunov maybe I'll make a guide sometime in the future, then be sure to watch this video! I'll discuss everything you need to know to play the game and have some fun doing it!

i love the fact that Dragunov is going back to his prime condition.
they did him dirty on tekken 7 when they nerfed him. but now the way i see it, they buffed him again and gave hims some good perks.
JCDR is grinding through ranked maches with dragunov and he hardly loses. some people like Sephiblack alo picked him.
i loved the way you played.
happy playing Athena.
Honestly, Drag being this good feels like a fever dream 😂 cause season 1 was soooo long ago in T7 when he was dominate. I am happy with these changes but still understand the game is fairly new. Also been watching JDCR and Sephi since I play most of the characters they have been playing for years.
@@Athena4LyfeI hope he stays that way or else they're gonna repeat history 😅
Happy to see drag doing great in tekken 8 it was hard seeing him being one of the Best to one of the worst characters in tekken 7, afraid that the same thing is gonna happen xD
Oh yeah the eventual nerfs and balance changes are for sure gonna hit him, but I’m hoping the same will be fore Ling, Azu, and maybe DVJ but we’ll see 😮
Dude is in heavy need of nerfs right now lol. So don’t be surprised if it happens again.
wait when drag get so tall?? how did i just notice his height...
Yeah Drag is one of the few big characters in this game. I noticed it too. He's able to get hit by certain combos because his character model is so tall
Drag got legsssss
Plus he’s always so hunched over with his stance. But if his posture is aligned he’s definitely tall.
Love how you play! Very solid. Looking forward too seeing more Drag!
I'll be playing Drag a lot! He's pretty much going to be my main from here on out!
Coming from a 2D fighting background, and been trying to learn this character. Thanks for showing off the strengths! Going to keep watching so keep it up.
You got this. Just focus on the moves I used often and get used to them as quickly as possible. Tekken is fun and very very rewarding in the long run.
@Athena4Lyfe Definitely will be. For sure, it's going to be my just goofing game, but I still would love to not go 0-2 in every bracket.
Keep up the good content!
good ass tekken! great to see another dragunov climbing the ranks.
I want to play more! But alas school is calling my name 😪
would love a guide soon tbh! good work
🤔 maybe I can do that. We’ll see. The game is like 3 days old so we need to still lab and do some testing.
Yoo didn’t notice this was Athena!! Awesome drag, I’m maining him myself this go around - hope to run into you!
Hi lol yeah he's just too much fun rn! I plan on putting a lot of time into him again!!!
Great vid, I too like sneaking u/f 3+4 in heheh
Wow you have a sick dragonuv! Keep it up! 👍
Thank you this is for real like my 4th main in Tekken and I'm glad they made him so good in this game. He deserves it!
@@Athena4Lyfe You're welcome and that's good news! I have to say Tekken 8 has made every character more interesting to play. I have more than just Hwoarang and Asuka to play now, I got Jun, Kazuya, Reina and Eddy that I plan to use.
What a enjoyable ranked video
Yeeeee more matches in the near future to come :D
@@Athena4Lyfe all right looking forward to seeing it
Hey great video dude, amazing gameplay! Tell me something though because i also main Dragunov, at 2:13 you launch Alisa in the air with DF2 then after 4,4 how do you continue the combo in the air?
44 ends in full crouch, the next move is full crouch DF14 which goes into sneak stance (QCF basically) then just press 2 for the qcf2 into the B! Or whatever it's called in this game.
Along with what was said, there’s also a just frame blue spark input that does more damage on the FC df1,4 string that you’ll follow with another sneak step to get the tailspin. Hope that helps
Dat wall throw dat gives u combo after is goated I gotta get me a stick drag definitely nice n t8
It's so good because essentially it gives you a nice little wall flip-over if you don't use your tailspin beforehand. Lots more stuff to lab and test but overall I'm having a blast!
@@Athena4Lyfe they really buffed him he has a lot of plus frame moves it's his turn a lot more now I've been watching a lot of drag go I'm a asuka player but they nerfed her to the ground
@@kenjoslice7gaming I head they really put the hammer down on Asuka and lots of players and specialist have been saying the same thing. I get it tho, I'm playing Drag because my regular mains are all gone. But thankfully I did play him a lot for like a year and a half so I'm familiar with him. His plus frames are great and there's like a little tiny bit of an execution barrier but he shouldn't be too hard to pick up tbh.
@@Athena4Lyfe I think he's top tier I've always liked him but I'm not usually 1 to use top tier but I'm definitely gonna learn him
@@kenjoslice7gamingdo plus frames really matter when the start up on any move he has can damn near get stuffed by random jabs and lightning fast launchers
Mad respect. As someone that had their main taken out too i had to blow the dust off my tekken 5 dragunov skills.
People down here talking like dude is so god tier, i know how hard you working 💪🏾 lmao
I’m saying! 😂😂😂 people online already know how to stop qcf4 😂 thank goodness Cuddle Core told me years ago to pick up other characters than just Heihachi. Drag is good but I still gotta work!
@@Athena4Lyfe yeah I was a Miguel for Tekken 6 and 7. I wanna pick up another character but I don't know who yet.
And facts people act like dragunovs moves are so crazy. His start up on damn near anything that can get a combo started is pretty atrocious
And his high low mix ups are DOOK
I replayed the last match like 5x . That shit was raw af
Thank you. There was quite a few instances of counterplay that my opponent and I adapted to which is important to how I learned the last round.
i havent tested it yet but is cd4 the new pick up from ch wr2? im still doing d2 pickup...:/ hmm will have to test after work tonight
So in this game a lot of moves that we're used to have changed notation. The pick is actually cd3+4 but yes that is the most optimal and max damage instead of the d2 pickup.
@@Athena4Lyfe interesting. Ill have to try it after work. Im still working on figuring out his changes. Got hwoarang down but really wanted to get back to dragonuv since heihachi is gone.
Really strong dragunov
Thank you, I always played him lowkey since Tag 2. I'm glad I can show him off in Tekken 8.
i really like this silent russian. i started off with victor but i kinda wanna get to learn drag too 😭
Play Drag 😈
Sholawat AYAT KURSI
Qcf4 is best move
It's really really REALLY good!
Are you using arcade stick?
Yeah I’m playing on Korean Stick. Myoungshin Fanta lever to be exact.
I wanted to play an "honest" character and Drag was appealing. Now I'm not sure anymore, he seems broken.
He's always been broken, either broken good or broken bad. Play him while he's still good lmao
You gotta just play cause who knows how long this’ll last. Think of an honest character right now in a game like Tekken 8 will probably give you a headache 😅
Nice Sir Gay
👀👀👀👀👀👀
Me at your Steve-vu: 😉
@@Athena4Lyfe lol… just wait until I’m back state side. We’ll definitely get some games in 😎
🇸🇦
Nerfs inbound
😭😭😭
Not easy to switch from 2D fighting game to a 3D fighting game 😢
No fr he is WAY too good, why did they think drag with good lows was smart?
Because what else does he have? His launchers are ass, his high low mix up game is ass. Even most his strings can get stuffed by somebody mashing jab
Drag is good but the new hatchet kick low is i20 yes but launch on block, d2 is 0 on hit (though it forces crouch), and the new full crouch low gets stuffed by jabs easily. Though I gotta lab some more situations with that last low. Either way he’ll carry you a bit until you start running into people that know how to deal. It becomes a different ballgame after that 😅
Drag is broken asf
He needs it 😇
Love your gameplay. But you should change your title name to not so secret TOP TIER CHARACTER lol. Drag is a DOG. I'm surprised your not using Reina tho.
LOOL thank you! I know I know Drag is def good and that’s for sure not at all a secret 😂
@Athena4Lyfe so are your ever going to try Reina out? She looks like someone you might like.
broken iq 80 char
