Nobi deserved this win so far. In all Tekken world tour finals he was in the top 10. I hope he will win another big tournaments this year and will be in the top 3 of Tekken world tour finals 2024.
49:55 "I have no idea but he is surfing on a bear." Steve's commentary never disappoints. But when he teams up with Kai, it becomes a straight up laugh fest.🤣🤣
Man Rangchu is an inspiration, I love the bears and I hope to get anywhere close to how good he is. Good job to Nobi on the comeback though. That was insanely fun to watch
This game is so fucking cold man. Even before I was playing how I am now I was always watching vids, of all the fighting games rn, this one is the most fluent and stable in its identity imo.
Rangchu is my favorite player for sure. Playing like that on bears isn’t easy at all. And I’d argue he’d get bigger results with many other characters.
He has actually said that he feels more comfortable with the bears that with any other char. in the past he has even tried other ones and had not so good results. So the bears are actually he's best choice.
I often feel like relatable and informative commentary holds back esports overall, but this has to be one of the best pairs of commentators I’ve seen for any game. Major props y’all, keep it up!
Its been a long time since nobi won 1st and I can definitely see how he happy was when he won. He definitely adapted to T8. Very aggressive playstyle and his side walk at the end set was insane. Cant wait for the 1m esport tournament. Gonna be insane
the end of that Mulgold/CBM round was sick. Four clutch decisions by Mulgold in a row: staying on the ground, low poke to get CBM in range to die with a rage art, low parry, rage art
Rangchu should have no shame in Resetting The Bracket and taking Nobi to Final Game. The level of play at this Tournament was some of the highest ever. He played amazingly, but somehow, some way, Nobi made it happen when it seemed like he was down and out. Well played to Rangchu. The only Player either of them lost to at Dreamhack Dallas was each other. 🔥🔥🔥
@@obedbohorquez5480Dude so trash thinks dragunov is cheap 😂 he is B tier at most now and has pretty bad hitboxes and combo damage without the wr4 at the wall, barely hitting 80 damage without walls and not even 100 with heat. He doesn't even have frames anymore. Dragunov, Jin and kazuya are the most honest characters in the game. Dragunov has no gimmicks, no evasion, no crushing, no frames, no bs heat, it's all pure poking that gives no frames and low damage. I truly hope every other character gets nerfed like dragunov because otherwise it's just unfair.
Farzeen's neutral game is so clean but I don't think he utilizes heat effectively. Burning it early with full gauge heat dash or Victor's heat smash which is -15 on block. Think Victor's best game is played with a heat engager and using the full heat time to deal chip with normals or U 1+2 then a very late heat dash when it's about to run out for a free mixup.
@@uglyhorseteethbritsht when he played akuma, you guys said this. "carried by the top tier" then now, he is playing victor, you guys saying again "carried by the character". Man, play yourself and then get into top 8 in the stacked event than talk shit about someone. "do hardwork, and don't get jealous by someone's hardwork"
@@leojones1964 His gameplay is not play of champions.. he is not a tough competitor. He just got lucky win. U probably will not see him winning any other tournament
@@mrzoolmrjaan it’s not a consistent playstyle but it is entertaining. However, does do some of the harder combos and in a professional setting that takes a lot of skill.
Spoiler shield. Ppl need to stop spoiling who the winners are and whos in grand finals with their congrats comments. Let the new viewers have some suspense because its hard to avoid randomly seeing comments sometimes.
@@ShadowMark3_ Happened in Tekken 7 too, several years ago. Unfortunately, unless they move to a non-Bluetooth platform that forces everyone to be wired, this can happen and it's on the organizers and the players to control.
@@EclairTwJDCR almost won against AK in final round final match of their set. JDCR had like 80%+ HP while AK already very low health, and JDCR was 1 poke away from winning. Some ppl said he still can get combo extension and match basically was set, but idk dragunov that much. Suddenly someone controller got connected and paused the game.....resulting in stoppage then they need to replay entire final round....with full health on both side.
They nerfed Arslan when they didn't bring Kuni back in this game lol! But y'all better get y'all wins in now! Because if she does come back he'll be on top again 😅
So stupid. If you pick random at the start of the match then the stage should be random when you press rematch. If people want to play specific stage they can choose a specific stage.
ak cooking doesn't equal to jd not being robbed. what happened is not ok. people like you who are implying that its ok to be screwed makes the situation worse than it actually is. I love AKs shaheen so you just sit down and be quiet and just let it pass if you don't want even more hate on AK.
@@freddiesale6244 but its not ak who did it. the officials already investigated the issue. what else is to blame then skill issue with jdcr not winning the rematch. accidents like this happens every-time in tournaments. face jdcr can beat ak but he lost focus and lost the match
Fire top 8. Rangchu and Nobi set was insanely fun to watch. The mindgames were awesome
Brutal grand final 😲
Nobi deserved this win so far. In all Tekken world tour finals he was in the top 10. I hope he will win another big tournaments this year and will be in the top 3 of Tekken world tour finals 2024.
This is going down as one of the best top 8s and arguably the best grand finals of all of Tekken 8 already.
idk about all that
Best top 8 and Grand Finals of all the 4 months the game has been out? 😂
But I agree that it was insanely fun.
I agree. This was one of the most stacked tournaments in Tekken history ever and every single player in top 8 EARNED their way up there
Top notch Panda play by Rangchu... he played well.
Top notch bs .
"Unscaled bear booty" - absolutely hilarious 😂
The clutch back swing blow did it for Nobi!

@SonicRiders I thought so too, up until I heard Steve & Kai during top 64, never laughed so hard during Tekken matches.

Tekken can put some gray hairs on your head for sure
with the clutch nobi-san signature backsway. Too good

The takeaway is using things that barely have anything to do with Tekken. Moreso just questionable tools
That JDCR nonsense was like the PDP MK 2011 tournament with Perfect Legend
Best t8 tournament so far
Whenever Arslan ash loses, an angel gets its wings
Panda definitely doesn't look garbage tier. 60% off a single launch is just gross.
Bears are insane in this game. High damage and the chip output is just stupid.

This top 8 is crazy. JDCR and Knee lost despite trying to fight for top 8 so no excuses there.
