Never in the history of tekken did anyone witness such a heart pounding match. I am totally speechless. After losing the first two games knee came back superbly. The flawless low parrys, excellent sidesteps, unbreechable defense done by knee were a visual treat. Anakin had the crowd in his favour though. And he was on the verge of winning even before the reset. But as tables turned the crowd was thunderstruck. They just stood there unable to move a single muscle. I admit it, all these years I haven't been appreciating knee enough. Now after seeing him perform like this I must say he is the tekken God. Definitely.
Not just this match, but the whole tournament. His run from the lower bracket was a grind and faced so many set points. If you haven't seen it, the series with rickstah, and rangchu were just as good if not better.
37:42 when ppl complained tasty steve ruined Rangchu's TWT win last year by asking the crowd to cheer for qudans. well it's not on purpose lol, tasty steve just simply has such poor timings. knee was like, "oh okay, you totally tricked me." tasty steve, if you're reading this, the cheers should go to winner first, then to the loser, then back to the winner. you keep doing this whenever the winner is supposed to celebrate lol. you have any idea how confusing and awkward that is lol?
Knee is a back to back champion at Combo Breaker. He won it last year as well. But man, he had a long road to climb. I was watching this live and I was at the edge of my seat.
I'm new to this tekken tournament but I've been binge watching every match now lol its fucking amazing how much time and skill and patience they have to get the win holy balls
look up for this video on youtube ' Tekken 7: Qudans vs. EchoFox | Saint - Tekken World Tour Finals 2017 Grand Finals ', one of the best sets up to date i think
@@Viewer13128 The stream was hilarious. When they started playing Aris said that Anakin had already won, that it would be easy and that nobody needed to worry. He said jokingly, of course. And everyone in the chat started talking non-stop "JINXED" while he laughed and mocked with the chat. After KNEE got the reset the chat was already flooding insults and repeating "JINXED" all the time. Aris started to regret and ask how he reversed the "JINXED", it was very funny. After the KNEE won several were insulting him but in the end everything was in peace. It was hilarious.
Anakin nearl 3-0'd Knee, then Knee got the reverse 3-0, PLUS the next two games for 5 in a row, THEN Anikin nearly REVERSE 3-0'D THE REVERSE 3-0!!! One of the greatest fighting game matches of all time.
2 match of the year contenders knee vs rangchu and knee vs anakin, it almost makes the fact that knee getting beat initially and making a miraculous comeback look scripted, matches are always exciting and edge of the seat thrillers when it involves knee, one of the prominent reasons being that you never know what character he's gonna choose.
Actual match really started in mishima dojo, very smart by knee picking mishima dojo for the last round after mentally demolishing Anakin in the reset bracket
Anyone else find the USA chants annoying? You don't see anyone screaming Korea finalnd, Australia. I have nothing against their patriotism but it's just annoying
@@AirylVODs I'd actually appreciate that but it kinda makes it a different kind of competition one bw countries, like they almost always start supporting their own player I have nothing against that. Chant his name but why the country?
@@Maseeha171 because in tekken history, Korean players are seen as the legends, the untouchable best players in the world. People from the usa started downplaying our own players because of various reasons, and it became popular to assume that an American stood no chance against a Korean. The usa chants was anakin putting his country on his back to prove that usa could compete with Koreans. It's kind of like the Olympics in a way
@@grantgarbour but it's still annoying you don't hear Pakistan New Zealand or Australia chants all the time. It ruins the sportsmanship tbh involving which country is better and all
33:45 then i'd say it's this moment when Anakin wastes times to get a drink to try to throw off Knee. he shouldn't have given knee any time because knee doesn't need momentum and knee kills his own momentum, so there is 0 point in trying to kill knee's momentum by forcing a break. the more time you give knee, the more you are in trouble, even if it's dead time.
The South Koreans players used to be one of the best in the world as soon as Pakistani players didn't participating but now Atif butt and Arsalan Ash etc are so professionals
STK actually has over 1.7 million views on his upload now. BDJ got demonetized a while back, so he deleted all the tournament footage that he ripped from the Tekken Twitch channel.

That moment when Anakin is 2-0 but the video is 30mins long
he summoning a god
Yeah there was 5 sets but usually 3 sets
knee reset the bracket.Its actually 5-2
Bro really said "not today"
lol

I agree with you
@25:21 - I have not seen a better and more satisfying Deathfist in my life, in a pro-tournament. If you folks have, kindly point it out.
i knew Knee was a One of the best , but damn this match showed me he is probably "THE" Best. He has the heart of a true champion
Knee *IS* tekken
You must be "new" in Tekken if didn't know yet that Knee is the GOAT of this game.
Not just this match, but the whole tournament. His run from the lower bracket was a grind and faced so many set points. If you haven't seen it, the series with rickstah, and rangchu were just as good if not better.

Forget Game of Thrones this is the best shit to watch! Congratulations to Knee....amazing gameplay from Knee and Anakin!!!

This is some real good ass Tekken
Knee, Always be Dragon.
Love how you can hear a single girl among the huge antagonistic crowd cheering for knee during the first sets. That's spirit!

Give it up on Knee but hoping for ma boi JDCR we gotta make a comeback
I hope also but I'm wondering if sticking on Armor King is the best choice
Knee is just that guy...give an inch...takes a mile! 😂😂 Top play from both players!
31:04
RIP with that Goofy scream
I love it when anakin smiles lmao that's when you know it's some good ass tekken
Tekken 7 is still a far superior game to Tekken 8. Way more consistent gameplay mechanics.
Bro is so good the crowd went crazy over his character pick😭
This is the Match of the Year.
I like how Chanel approach knee to tell him to use Paul 👍🏻.
the crowd was amazing
knee, in starting side walk downwards, later side walk upward.. side walk doge punch and combo, wining recipe... still needs alot of practice
Actual match really started in mishima dojo, very smart by knee picking mishima dojo for the last round after mentally demolishing Anakin in the reset bracket
Anakin is not put on a earphones in his ear, He is hear the knee's play near by haha
All of a sudden everyone’s knee’s fans
Like we weren't already Knee's fans
Everyone is a knee fan low key lmao
We all Knee fans out here.
Match of the year candidate for sure.
Rickstah vs Knee for me
9:47 my fav moment
Goddamn knee how do you do it?
This gotta be match of the year!
아나킨 진짜 잘한다.
갉아먹기랑 가드 진짜 숨막히네 진짜.
정신 차리면 무릎은 반피고.
근데 저걸 어떻게든 뚫어내는 무릎 당신은 도대체...
아나킨 심지어 듀얼쇼크 쓰는데 리스펙트 ㄷㄷㄷㄷ
"i will a new USA champions!;"
-Paul: yeah, i'm there boys
Back to back combo breaker champ gg
God is Knee or Knee is God ?
I thought Ani had this one. But bloody hell was that a great set.
18:45 Here is my tense moment!
Anakin : don’t worry i’m facing knee
Knee : hold my water bottle bruh your facing god of tekken
9:06 *This move made Anakin lose* 👀
철권은 무릎
Knee a god like defense and prediction
Knee is just a Dragon 🔥
Why do I keep watching this match?
We already knew this, but Knee's a fuckin' god. Holy fuck. I fuckin' love Tekken!
아나킨 심리전 지리고 무릎은 그냥 무릎하네;; 패리도 잘하고 진짜 레전설
