Tekken General

[unborn socket]

im like the only weird one who puts shoes on her though

[obtuse nexus]

Yeah, you're weird

[unborn socket]

listen I want to have the footprint on the shirt okay

thats what the degens forget to think about

if you get a foot print on the shirt you could just keep the shirt and like frame it or whatever you do idfk

[obtuse nexus]

OHHHHHHHH
Ok, good reason

Back to Tekken
How do y'all have the buttons set up?
I'm thinking
A B C D
Heat Rage ? ?

[unborn socket]

standard button layout

rage art and specialty controls are unbound

I havent played a Tekken since 5 for one and two I have not played a Mishima when I played Tekken 5 I played Dragunov and king

so coming to Tekken 8 everything is different and im learning a Mishima for the first time

it has been

rough

like I would've been fine with just learning a Mishima but she also has like three stances I gotta worry about

[rigid mortar]

sajam slam day 2 has started

[plucky sky]

1 2 3 4
3+4 1+2
2+3 1+4

[unborn socket]

I was watching Eskay for a bit

to see that Reina gameplay

[rigid mortar]

been watching brawlpros team

they are so funny

[obtuse nexus]

Ohhhhh
You got the command macros
Makes sense
I find pressing buttons together WAY easier on stick than it was on pad
Like 2+3 is borderline impossible on pad

[rigid mortar]

you know that king move where he grabs you out of the air and slams you down and how he can do it twice in a combo. what property of a combo has to happen for it to only be able to do it once?

[wintry dagger]

The powerbomb or the backstabber?

[rigid mortar]

uhhh

i didnt know there was two

its just the same one i see all the time

[rigid mortar]

i think its power bomb

[unborn socket]

I hit blue or Cyan ranks? idfk

but like I somehow got put at the lowest possible rank

so now we climbing from 1st dan les gooo

[obtuse nexus]

I think everyone starts there, no?

[unborn socket]

probably

no im sure my friend got placed higher than me in terms of Tekken prowess when the game first came out

[obtuse nexus]

Oh wow
Makes sense tbh
I was a complete beginner when I got the game

Still am
LMAO

[wintry dagger]

Yeah everyone starts out at Beginner/Dan/Cyan ranks. One placement match will decide which specific rank

[unborn socket]

I was going to say like he started out as a low rank but not as low as me

I legit started at the lowest possible

had a whooping 100 Tekken prowess

you should've seen what the red and purple ranks did when I did an electric in their faces haha

[wintry dagger]

Nothing wrong with that. Everyone starts as a rookie at somepoint

[unborn socket]

im used to it tbh

SF6 gave me the same treatment

[wintry dagger]

Oh and before I forget

[unborn socket]

but now we in gold 4 pushing for plat (still)

[wintry dagger]

Ranked matchmaking is based off of Tekken Prowess. Which increases rapidly if you play ranked with multiple characters.

Play whoever you want in quick match, but if you decide to play ranked with Nina because shes the original, "Step on me Mommy" character. Your Nina will be low rank an you'll be fighting anyone between new players and whatever your prowess is

[unborn socket]

I did like Nina when I played her in the demo they had as like an open beta for everyone when the game was going to come out

and I liked the character but then I say Reina and I was like this character just looks cooler

[wintry dagger]

My stepson is almost yellow rank with Nina but he played Azucena and Alisa first. His Green/Yellow rank Nina is often fighting Orange/Red and the occasional purple rank

[unborn socket]

and it would be nice to learn a Mishima

[unborn socket]

oh Reina is the only one I played

I was getting matched with purple ranks even though I didnt have any other character played

[wintry dagger]

That... shouldn'thappen. They were Ruler ranks?

[unborn socket]

like game make up your mind am I a noob (which I am) or am I above average?

[unborn socket]

mighty ruler mainly

sometimes the rank just above it

[wintry dagger]

Thats a massive gap in ranks lol

[unborn socket]

I know....

I was like how tf

[unborn socket]

yeeeeeeeee

idfk

the game is just on something with me

I did however make it to fighter rank

so we chillin

I was kinda able to keep up with the red ranks though idk about the purples because they played like they kinda felt bad for me lmao

played wayyyy more passive from what I usually see when I watch my buddy play in purple ranks

[wintry dagger]

So my stepson hit Warrior rank in a "Hysterical way"

He won't show me the clip, but us making me look through his replays to find out how

He better have D4-ed an Alissa to death trying to spam chainsaws or something equally funny

Found the replay

[cloud yoke]

Can we see it ?

[wintry dagger]

Gonna clip and post the last round. Because apparently thats when it happend

But if you want to search the replays i can give you his tekken ID

Although I will say there was some 360 no scoping in the first round

Holy God this is amazing

Stepson literally ||Bitch smacked|| a Claudio to Warrior rank

[wintry dagger]

@unborn socket so yeah, quick match put my Nina (Destroyer rank) with a 100 prowess Alisa

I have 192k prowess for reference

[wintry dagger]

And my hatred of Alisa led to no mercy being shown

[fickle fulcrum]

@wintry dagger

[wintry dagger]

Gotta love Tekken hitboxes lol

[unborn socket]

that Asuka fit is so good I got confused when I heard a different voice

[wintry dagger]

You can unlock some lovers rivals costumes

Lili and Asuka can equip the others default outfits.

Jin and Hwoarang can too

[unborn socket]

WE HIT GREEN RANKS BOIS

after 3 hours of agonizing pain and some rounds that felt like textbook highway robbery

the more i play this game the more i realize that blocking is so over rated - scarra a high blue rank / w/e is after blue

[wintry dagger]

You can flowchart your way to blue ranks if you know basic frame knowledge ngl

Its always Xiaoyu players....

[brittle python]

“GrandmstrLing”

[wintry dagger]

He was actually winning too

That rage art wouldn't have killed

[brittle python]

smh

[rigid mortar]

i love the sajam slam

[wintry dagger]

I just fought a 3ddy clone

And side note, I'm starting to like Azucena

[wintry dagger]

We're gonna ignore my incredibly unlabbed Azucena but this is how you beat 3ddy

The headstand 3's are mid, High High

Duck after the mid kick for a while rising punish

[obtuse nexus]

Yeah I’ve been catching on lately

[wintry dagger]

Or if you stand block all headstand 3 kicks Eddy is -12 and in relaxed stance.

Any fast mid will CH him out of stance

Demon breath, Leroy's D1+2 heat engager,

Jun 1+2 so on so forth

Also its better to actually block the relax stance 3 for a stagger block instead of low parry like I did at the start of the clip

[obtuse nexus]

Jesus

[wintry dagger]

Well it isn't the Xiaoyu I played earlier

[obtuse nexus]

Xiaoyu’s always have high dc rates lol

Don’t get it

[wintry dagger]

Shit my flowchart didn't work or he kept hitting me out of AOP? Hit me out of THIS!!! plugs

[obtuse nexus]

Speaking of flowcharts I went to the dark side and started playing reina

Ff2 is carrying me

[wintry dagger]

Reina FF2 carries everyone lol

[obtuse nexus]

It’s so free

Reina is really just shin kazuya

[obtuse nexus]

That speedkicks guy is cookin

[unborn socket]

LES GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[unborn socket]

also wtf you played a mishima before? you were doing electrics and wavedashing crazy

[obtuse nexus]

Oh yeah I main kazuya and devil jin

Just never really messed with reina

[unborn socket]

ahhh

how does one get better at wavedashing

faster more specifically

im on a drone 2

[obtuse nexus]

Switch to left side, easier that way

[unborn socket]

lever

[obtuse nexus]

And practice doing two in a row as fast as possible to build the muscle memory

Eventually add 3 etc etc

[unborn socket]

and its just doing the electrics motion over and over

[obtuse nexus]

I play on pad so I don’t know how different it is

[unborn socket]

with an added forward after because im assuming it saves the previous input

[obtuse nexus]

Exactly

[unborn socket]

basically a joystick

[obtuse nexus]

Oh the Pac-Man joints

Yea never used one

[unborn socket]

ye

I have the joystick set to D-pad setting which gives it like tighter controls

And it’s a square gate so that should help

[obtuse nexus]

Smart

You should get it in no time

[obtuse nexus]

Meant to say right here mb

[unborn socket]

Like I do them it’s just they are really really slow

Also I play left by default always thought playing right side was weird

I practice both sides anyways because of prior fighting game experience

[obtuse nexus]

Yea it’s just easier to play mishimas on the right imo

Not necessary though

I gotta practice both sides again I got lazy

Behold my strongest attack

[unborn socket]

The hop punch is crazy

I somehow still fucking jump in this game even though it’s a hold input

I don’t even hold it sometimes

[obtuse nexus]

For real lmao

[unborn socket]

Idk if it’s because my input gets saved or what but if I spam the tap up input I get a jump

So I gotta like not do that

[obtuse nexus]

I used to jump when trying to do electrics

Still don’t know how that happened lol

[unborn socket]

bro same

[rigid mortar]

https://fxtwitter.com/poiya123/status/1792422120615759877 lol this is why they were called team stoners. keep in mind the person who is playing can hear them and winner goes to winners finals

man i loved this event

[unborn socket]

very fun event yeah

[unborn socket]

very proud of myself

I fought a 22nd dan (Raijin) Bryan player who was pretty good and I can proudly say I got him down to half health three times and almost killed him once

bro was like a sliver of hp left I fuck up a punish and he rage arts right when I jab to kinda lessen the fuck up

[obtuse nexus]

Nice work

We should play sometime

[wintry dagger]

Top 10 questions Dorya can't answer

[rigid mortar]

https://fxtwitter.com/Rooflemonger/status/1792623907775680961

[unborn socket]

I looked at all of Reina’s 134 moves and labbed them for 2 hours and I think I will be doing that like once a day from now on to build that muscle memory

(I get really involved with a new main)

What are the useful ones from there because all of them look pretty good (frame data wise) but idk about the practicality of them @obtuse nexus

[wintry dagger]

Ff2

Reina FF2 mixups won a tournament recently.

[unborn socket]

I know ff2 is a good button but is there anything other than that?

Also can’t you just harass someone with ff2,4 or smth

That shit is like plus 4

On block

[wintry dagger]

But to seriously answer your question, Reina Key moves are FF2, wavedash mixups her untechable throws crouching df3...

[wintry dagger]

Thats the high kick heat engager? That's +1 on block

[unborn socket]

Ah naw not the high kick im thinking of another move

But that move is good too

I think she like goes into the air and throws a downward kick after running at you

[obtuse nexus]

@finite bridge can prob help better than me
I am basically just mashing ff2 into sentai mix or 112 into sentai mix
With the occasional hellsweeps and electrics mixed in
DB2 is the go to low

[unborn socket]

Any use for her while rising stance?

Or is it too slow

[finite bridge]

No you can jab jab in the middle on block, it’s a good option for sure, but you have to make them respect or start ducking ur highs, FF2 sentai 2 is better for checking them fast

[finite bridge]

Punishing strings or move that are highs

[finite bridge]

No this is the cartwheel kick

Sentai 3 is the high kick heat engager

If they’re mashing on ur sentai you can also Sentai 1, 2 power crush, I don’t like throwing this out willy nilly

good frame trap is Electric WGF into FF2 sentai 3

[wintry dagger]

One of these days I'm gonna really figure out Reina

Probably after Lidia dropa

Man I can't wait for Lidia ngl

[finite bridge]

She’s sick

Everyone talking abt Lidia announcement like it’s a total L sidjdndndndnfn

compared to Slayer and Akuma

[wintry dagger]

Playing Reina for 5 minutes made me miss her

[finite bridge]

and Marco too

[wintry dagger]

Slayer and Akuma been around for decades. Lidia was legit the last Dlc character for T7

[finite bridge]

The sentiment is like damn why wasn’t she just base roster then

[obtuse nexus]

[wintry dagger]

@obtuse nexus watch this trailer and you'll see why I say Lidia is Reina's unofficial Mom

Also man that theme is cracked

[rigid mortar]

might have to redownload and buy the character

she looks fun

her hits look like they hit hard

[wintry dagger]

I noticed a distinct lack of Political Storm in her trailer

Maybe they dropped it from her kit?

[rigid mortar]

how did her parries work in t7?

[wintry dagger]

Complete opposite of Leroy

Leroy B2 catches the whole string, Lidia parries catches specific left/right punches or kicks

And it would only parry the first hit so you'd have to daigo parry a whole string

[woeful zealot]

so shes a character that rewards other character knowledge?

[rigid mortar]

that sounds like terrible parries

[wintry dagger]

Yeah I'd say so. Lidia parries are hard callouts imo

[unborn socket]

I was going to say the fuck did I just watch the character was parrying everything haha

Gave me Asuka flashbacks in a weird way

[wintry dagger]

Id have to go back in T7 and lab a few specific things but I think she doesn't have a kid parry

[rigid mortar]

it could be changed

[wintry dagger]

Mid

It probably is

Yeah I don't think they really changed her parries

Rewatched it and all of Jin's moves she parried were single hit moves or the end of a string

[rigid mortar]

does she get a leroy follow up?

like whys she got to parry a string

[wintry dagger]

Yeah she gets a counter hit like Leroy. But her parries only parry one strike

[rigid mortar]

they didnt show a date right?

[wintry dagger]

Nope

Just Summer

[rigid mortar]

ive said it so many times people are prob tired of reading it but im just hoping for a tekken character that i like so much that when i log on i just want to play instead of the feeling of i need to lab for 8 hours and just turning it off without doing anything

Let’s go

[stark salmon]

https://fxtwitter.com/neartweet04/status/1796018214108901659?s=46

Jun's biggest problem is She cannot play Tekken 8

She cannot be agressive with those health loss and no offensive moves. Asuka had that problem but wr 1+2 buffed to let Asuka go offensive.

Arslan's Tekken victories spoiled him and now he is suffering its consequences. He might beat everyone with Kuni because Kuni is a Great Knowledge Check with RPSs.

https://youtu.be/mdM46G984vw?si=XBzSX45D3_RqI5cx

[finite bridge]

Arslan really didn’t knowledge check like that w/ Kuni I feel like played more movement based

but yeah I agree I think the Jun changes def made her health loss shit hurt her big time

In the patch notes they said they were gonna retool her in the future patch to buff other parts of her kit, wonder what they’ll do

[rigid mortar]

it just hit me. i thought i was the problem, i thought cuz i hated tekken it wasnt my kind of game. but the truth is everyone playing tekken also hates tekken and it shouldnt be a motivator to quit. that i should use that hate to keep playing. it makes perfect sense

I just get VERY frustrated sometimes because I really have no idea wtf I'm doing

[wintry dagger]

Despite the current Unganess of T8 its still my preferred fighting game

And I like the heat system more than Kameos and the Drive system

[stark salmon]

It is a fucking must. They are changing her playstyle every single month

[woeful zealot]

There's no way the health changes were that significant

[stark salmon]

she has no tools but sparks and sparks carry huge risk.

Before the patch, using heat to chip your opponent was Jun's option

[woeful zealot]

That can't be true I'm sorry

She was highly rated before and a change of minor chip can plummet her rating that much

[stark salmon]

Stop apologizing for sharing your own thoughts.

[finite bridge]

I wanna try Lidia big time after the trailer

[wintry dagger]

She was my pocket character in T7

If Leroy and Megan weren't in T7 I would have mained her with Lili

Same with Jun

If Leroy wasn't in T8 I'd main her and Lili

Negan

Not Megan

[finite bridge]

Megan

[obtuse nexus]

Bryan is pretty much the only character I play that isn’t a mishima at the moment

They got Megan in T8

i just did about 10 sets with a fujin hwoarang

i only won a couple matches but no sets, but it makes me happy i can keep pace with a blue rank

Lol nope. Sometimes if she works until midnight and I have to go in at like 4 am ill sleep on the couch just to not wake her up. But I haven't slept on my couch due to a fight since like Thanksgiving

Fujins come in all shapes and sizes lol. Some play absolutely zero defense and just mash their one flow chart, and some play like Tekken Gods

Miguel will want to kill Jin, but three things will happen

[wintry dagger]

1. Miguel realizing to get to Jin he has to go through the old school Arcade Ladder.

Lee, Lars, Alisa, Asuka, Lili, Xiaoyu, Panda, Hwoarang, Leo, possibly Reina and Kaz and lastly Jun just to get to Jin and nope out.

2. He gets convinced by Victor, Lidia, Eddy and others that Jin has changed and has a change of heart.

3. Leroy whips his ass and he gives Miguel the story mode, "Believe in your heart, and let go of your hatred" speech

[obtuse nexus]

LMAO
Yeah, not happening

Hwo would never let anyone touch Jin

[wintry dagger]

No one on that list is letting anyone near Jin. But if I'm Jin and I had to pick like a group of them to protect me. Idk

Lars, Alisa Lee?

Xiaoyu, Panda, Hwoarang?

Asuka, Lili and by extension Shaheen?

Or Jun Kaz and Reina?

[valid glen]

my opinion on matchups (as bryan)

[cloud yoke]

As Jin's boyfriend I wonder how do people play neutral without a wavedash

[golden kettle]

Wavedash is like very Mishima specific isn't it?

I know some exceptions but generally that's the case I believe

[unborn socket]

“Let’s go gambling”

[wintry dagger]

Lars and Xiaoyu will be going into the Fuck Off category the more you fight them

[finite bridge]

Playing as Hwoarang?

Usually any time they give a char a wavedash Mishima or not they have a 50/50 out of it

This was true for Armor King and King as well

Idk what Hwoarang does for his tho haha I don’t see a lot of them wavedash like that

[cloud yoke]

Oh he has an skill gated access to a safe mid launcher and a 18 frame mid that's +4
Wave dash itself is a very cheeky tool for hwoarang for 50/50 oki, where if he dashes towards you he can either hit you rising (if you try to mash) or just instantly transision to his running moves (where his ff3 hits grounded for the same situation)

With that being said it's mostly used for b3 baits and closing up

[valid glen]

true maybe but no one can play them at red ranks it seems

a red rank lars kept eating all my mids and spammed rage arts

I have never seen plates

waffle house?

[wintry dagger]

Yep

Twitter keeps asking for a Waffle House stage in Tekken

[ember portal]

enters aop stance

waffle house tekken stage would go so hard but the company doesnt actually want that kind of publicity rip

[rigid mortar]

that should just make it waffle home

[cloud yoke]

Holy HelI just lost against Ling wtf are you suposed to do about this character

She hits you downed with a fucking power crush of all things

[wintry dagger]

Find specific moves that can hit Xioayu out of AOP

[cloud yoke]

Yeah let me just do a.....
pulls out notes
a 16 frame launcher that's -19 on block

[wintry dagger]

You don't take to go for the home run -19 launcher

[cloud yoke]

What do you mean by this ?

[wintry dagger]

D3, D4, Bd3, Bd4 and B3 are all neutral moves that hit Xiaoyu out of AOP duck

Idk what moves from his stances work but idk how often you'll be in a stance and Xiaoyu will be in AOP

[cloud yoke]

D3/4,D4 are not the moves that hit AOP duck

[wintry dagger]

The first hits will

[cloud yoke]

Well i guess i can do a 20 frame ff3

[cloud yoke]

No man the first hits won't

[wintry dagger]

These are the kicks im talking about

[cloud yoke]

Those ducks ain't good enough

[wintry dagger]

Any moves that target legs or have a upwards traveling hitbox hit her out of aop

[cloud yoke]

Yeah that's why you do sidestep duck, which will evade lows and duck mids

[wintry dagger]

Or a far enough downwards hit box

Most Fujiin Xiouyu's with 40 defense aren't gonna sidestep duck

They'll be too pissed that you keep sniping them out of AOP and they can't do their flowcharts

[cloud yoke]

They don't have 40 defense because they can't defend but because they don't have to

[cloud yoke]

You say they can't but both of those lows leave you minus enough for a mash

With this godless move in mind i think it makes at least a Hwoarang matchup miserable

[wintry dagger]

BD3 is -1 on hit so you're good. BD4 is -8 but Xiaoyu will spen those 8 frames crouching assuming you're gonna do the extension

[cloud yoke]

DB4~F usually puts you in an explosive mixups, whenever on hit or block (he can be either -2 or +2, which is not enough to warrant anything out of his stance safe other than 0 on block high that catches rising moves with a launch)
DB4,4 get's you punished if it whiffs and it doesn't matter if the the first 4 hits (unless it's a counterhit)

at that point nothing stops her from either doing another duck aop or playing Tekken 8 like a normal character

When it comes to BD3 there's too much unfavorable RPS around to consider it as an engagement option

[plucky sky]

Do D4, 4

Actually wait

Is duck counterhit?

Oh wait

WR4 4 hits

Or just WR4 to force her out of the stance

Forgot that Hworang is blessed with a Mishima wr4

So just do f, d, df, n 4 to get instant WR4

[wintry dagger]

What if I told you,

This guy didn't DC and played the whole set, sent me a friend request and then we played a FT5 where I won 5-1

[stark salmon]

why are you still accepting Wifi Console people?

I hear Tekken likes grapplers

[wintry dagger]

Tekken has a female grappler and her name is Nina

[unborn socket]

is she actually though?

never played the character but I would believe that statement since everytime I get grabbed by one half my healthbar vanishes

[wintry dagger]

She's the only other character aside from King who has chain throws out of stances, has a complete throw game, and has throws that also remove your recoverable health. Which im pretty sure is unique to only her and the bears

But very few people use her throws because 9 out of 10 Nina's you fight just mash

[unborn socket]

the nina's I get in green and yellow mash and use their throws and my health just gets deleted out of exsistence

[solid stirrup]

Her, Dragonav and Shaheen had it to start, the bears got it with the big balance update

[wintry dagger]

Shaheen has a throw that does that? Only move i knew is that counter hit BF2

With patch notes dropping sometime tomorrow, made a quick list of specific moves or situations id nerf or change

1. If you use your heat smash, you can't use your Rage Art. Just like with Rage art and drives in T7

2. Make Asuka's stand 1+2 punishable on block

3. Kneecap Feng, Bd3 on CH no longer leaves Feng back turned for a brain dead 50/50 and his heat jumping move no longer causes a tremor and other nerfs

4. Heat burst doesn't track

5. Hot take, but get rid of the guarantee slide follow ups for Law, Lee, Shaheen and anyone else who has one

6. Let Leroy B2 parry Rage Arts and Heat Smashes like he could in T7 and the first beta

[solid stirrup]

Damn, you ain't getting shit from your wishlist lol

(This is speculative on my part. I think some Feng nerfs are possible, and the heat burst not tracking sounds like a good change)

[finite bridge]

Also let more of the damage from a punish on a floated slide be true damage and not grey damage

Claudio and Lars are pretty much the same lol

I called the slide loops

And also I'll settle for being able to parry heat bursts

And that Leroy sidestep launcher buff is nice

[stark salmon]

it is Fine. Fix AOP damn it

[wintry dagger]

What part?

[stark salmon]

You get buffs on Leroy. Thats the part

F U C K

[wintry dagger]

I'm assuming they nerfed the new perfect parry 80 damage follow up thats 95% guaranteed with the db 2 1+2

But they buffed damage on regular parry

[stark salmon]

tbh, i did not go through everything yet but i saw "Leroy Buff" and got alergic reaction 😂😂

Also, with Jun I can go agressive with Gen

[wintry dagger]

The biggest buff he got is D2 1+2 hitting on the sides. Now I can SS D2 1+2 and get my normal 80-90 damage combo instead of some inconsistent 50-60 damage

[woeful zealot]

@stark salmon thoughts on jun changes. I'm very mid on them, but I'm also not playing at a high level

[finite bridge]

Good changes don’t mind the Reina changes either

Should still be able to FF2 and it be sick out of wavedash

[stark salmon]

We can finally go offense with Gen stances and got good health regen

We can finally mix people with less risk

@woeful zealot so you can do b2,1F into Gen 3 Crouch. FF2 F into gen.

For Oki, Neutral Gen 3 into crouch then ws 1+2 or more mix

That buff created a lot of options for offense

[cloud yoke]

I will be looking foward to swinging kicks after the patch changes

What do u guys think of the throw changes

I’m happy they implemented specific homing throws as like unique moves, when snake mentioned that I thought it was a really good idea, but I don’t like normal throws tracking

I think that’s like going back on their own decision

also … why does King have 11 homing throws …

Reina unbreakable throws still tracking I don’t really like that tbh, they need to make them breakable in the future

either they stay unbreakable (still kinda dumb but you can duck) or they can home

I think having both is a little cheesey

[rigid mortar]

iirc all of kings tracking throws are pretty low damage and easy breaks. i think rko still tracks but thats the only one

Unique throws tracking im okay with also. But not Reina having untechable homing throws. Idc how much damage they do

[finite bridge]

Okay deal I will buy u season pass 2 if ur right

[wintry dagger]

So I gotta wait until season 4 for you to buy me the season 2 pass lol?

[finite bridge]

[wintry dagger]

Okay my crazy tin foil hat theory was wrong

Tifa

[finite bridge]

Tifa please

[rigid mortar]

wait paul has a 13 frame launcher in heat in this upcoming patch?

that seems pretty darn good

[plucky sky]

Wait

Devil Fist is nerfed

No

My neutral

[finite bridge]

It’s still p good

depends on how minus ur gunna be

[plucky sky]

Frame data isn't nerfed

It doesn't push the opponent away on block as much anymore

[finite bridge]

How minus is it rn? I’m opening the game to check

[plucky sky]

So no backdash EWGF to punish mash attempts

[finite bridge]

Yeah

-9?

[plucky sky]

It's -8 or -9

[finite bridge]

yeah that’s chill

I imagine it’s still good but u could yolo devil fist a lot before I feel like haha

Not on some Reina shit

or Jin

But it was still sick

[plucky sky]

I think all 4 of them got nerfed

[finite bridge]

Yeah they got em all

All slides Nerfed too I think?

Non Mishima related ofc

[wintry dagger]

I'm legit glad the slide loops are gone

Ended a Victor's 27 game win streak

[stark salmon]

did you ki charge him ?

and one and done ?

[wintry dagger]

I was in hermit so no time to Ki charge. There was no rematch though

Also I'm really starting to like Azucena

[wintry dagger]

Every Reina main aside from @obtuse nexus is gonna need a new game plan in about 24 hours

[finite bridge]

I already got one bro

Wavedash FF2

[stark salmon]

@woeful zealot Jun's strings on block are -12

go wild

it is less risky now

WTF

[woeful zealot]

which ones?

[stark salmon]

ALL OF THEM

[woeful zealot]

HUH

[stark salmon]

Most of strings are on block are -12

gen 1 - Low Heat Ender - Low Pokes everything

ARE -12

ON BLOCK

GO WILD LMAOO

[woeful zealot]

thats so wack

[solid stirrup]

I forgot to switch my brain back to tekken, so I thought you were saying Jun dies on every string lol

No, she's only jab checkable

[rigid mortar]

I saw that more than king feng players think he's dead dead

[solid stirrup]

What'd he lose?

[rigid mortar]

i guess everything

[stark salmon]

https://streamable.com/vqgnwo

The Most Useless Tornado

still thinking its use

[stark salmon]

db2, d4, db3, Gen 2+3 on Heat are -12 on Block

Gen Stance heals RAW HP

We are not low blocking but using Gen!

[cloud yoke]

I am once again reminded that Leo is

[solid stirrup]

How much does the lipstick cost?

[solid stirrup]

Too much

You could buy actual lipstick for that much

It'd be shit, but it'd be more useful than that

[wintry dagger]

BAH GAWD NOT THE CHAIR

[finite bridge]

https://youtu.be/MQvsu_-f2J4?si=JeO4pbvSeifJyZNM

[wintry dagger]

You're combos will be my combos lol

Please teach me lol

[finite bridge]

Play your character bro.

🐐🐐🐐🐐

[obtuse nexus]

I'll be back to Tekken this week
This looks a bit more fun tbh
I never liked the idea of just ff2 for my neutral

[wintry dagger]

Your stomp combo ender got a damage nerf too. Thats all the Reina changes I know off the top of my head

[obtuse nexus]

Yeah
She also lost crouch status on df4

Harder to punish jabs with it

[obtuse nexus]

That one actually got me sad
Take away my frames, take away everything if you want
But not my dmg...

It's fine tho
I'll live

[wintry dagger]

Meanwhile they buffed Leroy again

[obtuse nexus]

LOL
Cool!

I'm debating finally picking up Kaz and Hwo too

[wintry dagger]

Hwo got nerfed but idk enough about him to say how bad

I'm about to pick up Azucena

[obtuse nexus]

According to TMM, not THAT much
Just his brain rot low got heavily nerfed

[wintry dagger]

I know D34 being easier to punish is great for the defender. But not sure how much

About to find out

[finite bridge]

There’s a lot of other cool Reina tech floating around that did not get changed so I’m sure ppl will figure new stuff out really quick

Sometimes end your combos with Gen 3 Crouch then ws 3

It will launch wake up kicks

[wintry dagger]
