SERVERS ARE UP IT'S PARTY TIME

Cool changes

#

I will play it tomorrow when I get a new controller

plucky sky
#

He kept it

#

Azu did as well

#

I’m glad that they kept it

#

It’s such a nothing upside

this is exactly what I wanted when I was playing raven

made a dragunov ragequit because I blocked a low

#

Didn't include heat or a rage art

#

Turns out if people are exactly off axis at the perfect angle to keep bouncing off the wall you can fucking massacre them

This is definitely unique to kunimitsu and isn't just something I personally had never done before that many characters can do

#

Obviously

#

More reasonably I've seen 74 damage on axis but it's tough

#

The bnbs I was practicing are all 69-72

#

There's a really basic trivial combo you can do that's 62

#

Df2, mash 2, after tornado hit d3, 4,1

#

Dogshit oki tho

#

Some of what you can do on her feels amazing

#

B4 and f4 as combo tools feel like cocaine

#

I actually improvised a combo mid match and it worked I was so insanely proud of mysekf

#

I think it was 56 damage but who cares I IMPROVISED and it WORKED

real field
#

I REALLY want to lock in today and learn back turn I was too scared to learn it proper with raven

wintry dagger
real field
#

The dash stance is very simple but I like it it feels very nice to use

The ninpo stance is hilarious because every single button is "some bullshit"

real field
#

Let me send you the video I was following

#

It really impressed upon me how much of a combo creature she is

#

The wr3 combos are funny as fuck to me

#

I also love doing uhh

wintry dagger
#

Full screen instant projectile

#

Just ask @plucky sky lol

real field
#

Launch -> B4 -> bt1, 3 -> f4 -> 1 -> f4 -> 1,2,1 -> f4 -> 3+4

plucky sky
#

Iawn

#

What up

#

Oh fuck off

wintry dagger
#

Lol

plucky sky
#

Lmao

#

I'm going to try to only use it for whiff punishing for a day

plucky sky
#

Optimal is uhhh

#

I'm getting too crazy with it

wintry dagger
#

T7 bullshit took over ngl

plucky sky
#

Launch, B4, F3+4 > BT 4 > SEN 1 > 2 > 1, micro dash 1+2 > 3 > 2, QCF+1

real field
#

I think -13 PB and dogshit Oki to get 25 damage is a scary thing to risk unless you're full screen

plucky sky
#

I think

wintry dagger
#

Full screen heat burst? Kunai toss. Whiffed throw? Kunai toss

real field
#

Yeah that's my plan

wintry dagger
#

Kuni's lack of standing lows annoys me though

#

D1+2 is like it

real field
#

Which it's good for for sure but also hooo boy is it skill issue if you are getting hit by it over and over

plucky sky
#

It’s a great intentional weakness

real field
#

It's Victor gun but more fair and a mid

plucky sky
#

It’s a mid?

#

Damn

#

I thought it was a s.mid

wintry dagger
#

Victor's guns a high

#

Kunai's a mid

plucky sky
#

I know Victors gun is a high

real field
wintry dagger

#

It's small

Victor’s gun shouldn’t be plus imo

#

That’s it

wintry dagger

#

Then idk why people think this thing is insane

plucky sky
#

Range X move in a game where anything beyond three is a rarity

wintry dagger
real field
#

People talked like it was the greatest move to ever exist

It is good

wintry dagger
#

Its like Happy Chaos red light green light

#

Before he got reworked

real field
#

Hc got 50+%, a wall break and wincon off you being wrong there

#

Kuni gets 25 damage and bad ok and is murder able on sidestep

solid stirrup
#

This is also T7 vs T8, character power level was generally lower back then, right? (Outside of Marduk and the 2Ds, insert other ranked demon)

real field
#

Guess right against hc and he goes again, guess right against Kuni and she's -13 point blank

solid stirrup
real field
#

Smh

plucky sky
real field
#

because you can't use mappa hunch to cross the entire screen and tell people to fuck themselves for spacing you out, so zoners can't complain people refuse to play honest neutral, they stop at "how dare you have more range than me" :)

#

(It's a joke! It's a joke, don't burn me on the pyre)

solid stirrup
#

First time it actually was a thing was demon Jinpachi right?

real field
#

Fahkumram can be described as a zoner if you wanna see it that way, and I think that's a valid interpretation

#

he has bigass limbs

#

characters that are good at disengaging and keeping you out and fishing for counterhits, that's a zoner baby

#

it's a disengage character or w/e but that's a sub-archetype of zoner

#

they do hate projectiles tho

#

idk like, I look at something that's brand new in a game and I go "whoa, that could be cool"

solid stirrup
#

Yeah, projectile zoning is quite rare and hated because of it, generally?

real field
#

and even though HC is a monster and an issue I think it's cool strive tried

real field
#

victor gun is a knowledge/reaction check that is VERY bad for him if you duck it

clive projectile is irritating bullshit but it's not like, something to structure his gameplan around

kunai is good because it can do things no other move can do. It is not some dominant do-everything button

solid stirrup
#

EddieSmug I just appreciate the amount of nuance and perspective you're bringing to your Kunimitsu downplay! EddieSmug

solid stirrup
real field
#

I think the people who are extremely good at this game are going to be very scary with this character, I also think that if I played ten thousand matches against any of the top players and they were forced to do random select on every single individual match, I would go 0-10k

solid stirrup
#

Yeah I knew she was expected to be busted with the way Phi talked about her gameplay trailer

#

Dude couldn't hide the hunger in his voice lol

real field
#

my preliminary analysis is that I'm as right as I was for the previous three characters

#

"they are going to release a character who has defined strengths and weaknesses and is broadly fairly balanced while not being completely unplayably dogshit or insanely overpowered"

#

I was given shit for saying that about fahk, about AK, and about MZ

#

I'm 3 for 3 and honestly, while it's still early, I really think I'm right again with kuni

#

I just realized what the tekken community is

#

It's what happens when salt tweets get upheld as gospel

#

I figured it out

solid stirrup
#

Yeah

#

I would say more but I don't play, so it'd just be base slander in a community that can just kick me out (the Tekken players in this channel)

real field
#

nah they're reasonable here

#

speak your mind

#

who cares

#

this isn't r/tekken

plucky sky

fun kunimitsu fact

#

in the mirror you can punish df2 with CD2

real field
#

fun kunimitsu fact

#

you're not negative after the kunai if your opponent is ignorant of the frame data

#

fun kunimitsu fact

people who mash on roundstart ARE going to eat the meaty kunai at least twice

#

I love kunai because finally I don't have to guess if the wakeup attack is low or mid, I can just stand just barely outside of range and throw a knife in their face

#

I guess I could probably do like, df2 at that point, but, knife pisses them off :)

#

@plucky sky you were right and I was wrong, 2 is a ridiculously powerful button for its use cases

#

the range on it is SO GOOD

telling people trying to parry me to fuck off is SO GOOD

multiple followups! can choose to just leave it at one and play an evil guessing game!

#

it's got most things you could want!

plucky sky
#

Yeah told you

real field

you did!

#

that's why I'm admitting it LMAO

plucky sky
#

1 is also really good for what it is

#

She has shitloads of extensions on it

real field
#

I'm needing to practice those more for sure

wintry dagger
#

You have to input the punish while she's vanished

#

And the fact she still teleports even if the kunai gets stepped or walked

I gotta stop giving this mf 1, 1, 2

#

also frfr literally just standing and watching people it is INSANE how many people go for attacks on wakeup 100% of the time

#

I never really thought about it before because I was going for meaties

#

but I can react with kunai to most attack wakeup options people use

I've won entire sets off the power of letting people kill themselves

it turns out all I needed to pick one character over all others was having high mobility and varied jab extensions and a command throw and a lot of options on both offense and defense and an easy to remember universal combo I can do that's consistently more than a throw and a really good whiff punish game

#

and a parry!

Literally gave up trying to learn law in season 1 because three different guides from three different sources could not stop shitting on the game or talking about how brainless and broken the character was and I was like "if this is gonna be the experience playing this character I'm good"

wintry dagger
#

T8

#

But they aren't wrong when talking about how much easier Law is compared to older Tekken games

real field
#

I feel like there's a gap between "character is easier" and "do full screen slide it's so cheap and people won't punish you"

wintry dagger

stark salmon
# real field I do not know what dss is!

his Dragon stance. It was hella rewarding but very hard to execute. In Season 2, they simplified it.

Imagine practicing it for 20 years just to “patch it”

real field
#

I mean it's hard to imagine expecting a fighting game to keep anything consistent for 20 years tbh

wintry dagger
#

But in T7 and older tekken's you had to press back, forward forward with strict timing

#

The reward in T7 is for that strict timing was ridiculous plus frames.

real field
#

oh he got like, elphelt'd, to a lesser extreme

#

yeah that's worth complaining about tbh

wintry dagger
#

Law also has a +4 ws4 just by holding forward

wintry dagger
#

Jin's the only one I agree with

real field
#

I definitely can understand the perspective/argument of

"maybe the protagonist, who is being ostensibly used to move copies, should be in the easier half of characters to pilot for a new layer"

stark salmon
plucky sky
#

The only change I don't like about Lee is the b2,3,4 change to SAT

I somehow lost all my T7 progress and dlc when I upgraded to PS5 so everything reset.

I've got like 200 wins with Leroy in T7 and aren't out orange ranks

plucky sky
#

Yeah

#

Tekken 7 rank has one big flaw imo, and that's you gain a fraction of the ranks of someone who's like 3 ranks above you

#

1.9k for someone same rank as you

#

1.2k if they're 1 rank above you

#

550 if they're 2 ranks above you

#

and 80 if they're 3

wintry dagger
#

Like I think ended T7 at like Divine Ruler or Fujin. Don't even want to remember how many wins that took lol

stark salmon
plucky sky
#

I can understand why people don't like the T8 ranked system, especially with how "easy" it is compared to 7

#

I mean I'm personally not keen on 8 ranked either

#

But honestly, it's just grind in both games

stark salmon

In conclusion, T7 Heihachi's really fun, T7 Lee is ehh, T7 Kaz just feels like Kaz tbh and T7 Paul feels incomplete tbh

# plucky sky In conclusion, T7 Heihachi's really fun, T7 Lee is ehh, T7 Kaz just feels like K...
  • Heihachi: Missing the omen combos. He was hella fun before they turned him into a stand slop.
  • Kazuya: They gave him a superbutton, d1+2, and made Hellsweep almost a homing low but overall he was indeed Kazuya.
  • Lee: He was hard and required hella great execution. Players like Imyourfather really made Lee a top tier character.
  • Paul: He is always cheap. He was slow but hella strong. 8 made him more cheap 😭
plucky sky
#

I don't think Lee is that hard

#

Executionally

#

Honestly Mist Step cancels getting changed from a forward neutral input to hold forward is a good change imo and giving him more jf was a great idea

#

Though I think they should've given him some more jfs

#

T8 Lee has much more fun combos imo

#

And my biggest grip with him is the B2,4,3 string being too good in combos

worthy sphinx
#

I used Kazumi in T7. Waiting for them to bring her back in T8. I can't comment on her tech though because I'm just a filthy masher. Currently using Anna in T8.

plucky sky
#

As his season 1 T8 combos were much more fun with stuff like b2 f b n wr1,2 f b2 combos

stark salmon
#

I dunno. Overall, T8 combos are boring. They are too generic. Ability to Tornado at wall kinda kills the creativity.

In 7, or even 6, people were creative. 5 combos were short but required precision.

I miss Jin’s Omen Stance

plucky sky
#

6 had the same issue as 8 tbh

#

Bound at wall did too much

#

I think if T8 removes heat burst as a combo extender and limits SAT to 1 per combo

#

It's a lot better

stark salmon
#

Unlike 8, you earn those. Wall carry was hella hard and wall splats considered rewards for your execution.

8 just gives it all for free. Why does Jun’s BNB hit over 100 dmg with her wall ender, for instance?

plucky sky
#

Ehhh

#

Not every character

#

You telling me Jack worked for his wall carry?

#

Cause I know like 4 different combos that'll carry from centre of arena to wall and do like 100 damage

#

Also like LC or Katrina too

#

This combo is a lot easier than I remember
