Ggst discord is the name

Nope

You have to own the character to even watch your replays against her

[fast iris]

what the hell

that's
really annoying
will that go away when she's not early access

btw
from my gameplay
Do you have any tips?
or things i could be doing more/less of?

[still linden]

It won't go away until you buy her

What like anti Miary tips?

[fast iris]

More general gameplay tips
youve played against my azucena on a few different characters

[fast iris]

you can't watch replays against dlc you don't own?

[keen harness]

nope! they patched that. You can't CONTROL them but you can watch and practice against!

[keen harness]

#consolesupremacy

[keen harness]

😭

[still linden]

@wind elk send an invite whenever

[wind elk]

2026

Imma switch

[wind elk]

I have 0 idea if i gotten better or dropped in skill

[still linden]

Can't speak for your Jack because I really don't know the character. But for King you remember what your favorite buttons are

Which you can only improve off of slowly but surely

[wind elk]

I see

[still linden]

Like when you hit me with AK's b3 you know it's a instant tornado so free combo

But AK's B3 isn't the panic button King's b3 is

[wind elk]

Ahh

[still linden]

If you don't remember the strengths of each character you play, pick them and try to relearn basics 1 at a time

So for example King/AK

AK: Has backdash
King: does NOT have a backdash gotta use B3+4 instead.

F2. Great, simple whiff punish tool
Hopkick: Hopkick
D3+4: mid/high evasive low. That no one will duck because of the threat of a Hopkick

[wind elk]

I see

[still linden]

Even if you don't necessarily win the match, set a specific goal for yourself. Something like, "I'll whiff punish with F2 three times this match"

I did that on the Kaz set.

But my personal goal was wavedashing

[wind elk]

Gotcha

Gonna have to go sorry

[still linden]

All good. Getting a drink anyways

Ggs

[untold jolt]

<@&1003661073049722891>

[untold jolt]

Imma just jump into ranked and beat up other unemployed asses

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Thank you

[wind elk]

Should we go to tekken lounge?

[still linden]

@fierce yew you on Playstation Xbox or steam?

[fierce yew]

I’m on Xbox

[still linden]

Meet me in the tekken lounge. I'll send you a friend request and make a room

[fierce yew]

Ight. What lounge number?

[still linden]

Other 04

[wind elk]

Also whats your IGN in T8? @fierce yew

[fierce yew]

Grand Regent

[wind elk]

Gotcha

[fierce yew]

Alright so god Leroy. The character that’s actually broke. I’m fried

[still linden]

@warm plover this your alt account lol?

[wind elk]

I may not be playing all that well. Cause im not feeling all that well atm. By tomorrow i should be feeling better than today

[fierce yew]

Do they also play Lee (I’m a Mishima main)

[still linden]

Nah, he plays Jun but hates Leroy with a passion

[fierce yew]

…interesting

Actually no that’s real

Characters a chip god

[wind elk]

I think leroys cool

[fierce yew]

He’s a cool character

Just actually broken

Invites about to role out

[wind elk]

But for me its a skill difference

[fierce yew]

@still linden re invite

[wind elk]

LOL

[still linden]

I saw the invite but not it isn't showing up

Take 2

[fierce yew]

So I’m making lobby?

[wind elk]

Nah they invited you

[still linden]

Just join me lol

[fierce yew]

Don’t expect much. Ion know Leroy matchup anyway.

[wind elk]

I mean felt, but im still learning. Use to play by game sense

[still linden]

Im rusty af

[fierce yew]

Yeah so am I😭

Bandai genuinely needs to do something about Leroy

Character was trash for one season and they was just like “nope. We gotta buff em to oblivion.”

[still linden]

What don't you like about Leroy?

I'll give the counterplay rn

Shit it gave me Nina?

@wind elk I have a few mised calls from work. Wanna take over?

[fierce yew]

Ngl I just hate how they made him in tekken 8. I know it ain’t that much different from 7 given I used to play him, but god damn

[wind elk]

Alright

[still linden]

Im back

That could have been an email

Would have been able to ignore it until Wednesday if so

@fierce yew I got like 15 minutes

[fierce yew]

Ight

[still linden]

Last set

Ggs

[fierce yew]

Ggs

You were actually solid

[warm plover]

Jin now. I am now having fun with Jun. Jun is there but i do not have fun at all.

[still linden]

You're not having fun with her Sniper anymore?

[warm plover]

Im not have fun with this mockery anymore.

[wind elk]

<@&1003661073049722891> tekken 8 games?

Got like a half hour to kill before NBA

[wind elk]

Brb. Gonna restart the wifi

Ok good to go again

Same pass as before

[wind elk]

[still linden]

Ggs

[still linden]

<@&1003661073049722891> anyone else wanna play with @karmic roost and I?

[wind elk]

Sure

[still linden]

@wind elk idk who that random is

Thought it was set to private

[wind elk]

Oh

A friend of mine

[still linden]

Mystery solved

[karmic roost]

button stuck

wasn’t bagging

[still linden]

@karmic roost last set for me

[karmic roost]

ggs

how’s the lee?

[still linden]

You know what buttons you want to hit, and you're determined to him them, frame data be damned. Passed up on too many guaranteed punishes just to manually enter hitman, use ff3+4 or a D3.

Also there is zero threat of just frame inputs outside from heat.

[karmic roost]

yeah i’m trying to get the hang of lee just frames

[still linden]

Also its time to go into the lab and figure out opponent frame data

I don't expect too many people to know Leroy's punishable strings but you gotta launch Punish DVJ's B3 for example

[karmic roost]

noted thanks

[fierce yew]

Yall still playing?

[still linden]

Nah I'm about to watch NBA

[karmic roost]

so study opponent frames and my just frames?

[still linden]

There's more, but my personal dislike of T8 Lee would take over too much to be constructive

[fierce yew]

Ye. Just frames on lee don’t change much outside of damage.

F41 (JF) is +5 on block. But it’s a knowledge check since it’s a high

[fierce yew]

Yeah nah I still play Lee like…actual Lee. Not a braindead aggression monkey character

[still linden]

T8 Lee and Law honestly annoy the hell out of me more than Lidia

[fierce yew]

…I see

Law and Lidia are on the same caliber of braindead to me

[karmic roost]

well i’m focus on those highlights then

just not sure which frames to study

[fierce yew]

Tekken 8 lee though…? I somewhat disagree. That might just come with me playing him though

[fierce yew]

Preferably, every one of them except for Slide just frame, and Mist Trap

[karmic roost]

i meant my opponents frames

[still linden]

Go into punishment training with characters you'll fight way too often. King, Mishima's, Drag, etc

[fierce yew]

Depends. It comes with experience at that point honestly

You get cooked, go to replays and see

[karmic roost]

cool

[fierce yew]

If you fight Steve, just Punch parry

Character not much of a threat unless your just respecting his frames

[karmic roost]

yeah i have no clue how to fight steve

[fierce yew]

Just don’t be scared to use Punch parry and block low. (Unless if he’s just doing mids. ATP just wait until it’s your turn)

I wouldn’t spam punch parry though because eventually, you WILL get grabbed for it

[still linden]

Or baited by like pkb D2 or eat the guard break

[karmic roost]

what’s the punch parry input ?

[fierce yew]

That is true

[fierce yew]

Back 1+3

Back 2+4

They both work

[still linden]

I think its like b1+3

The throw inputs but hold back

[fierce yew]

Yep

[karmic roost]

might have to play you in a mirror sometime for some more tips

i’ll try to get the hang of my just frames

[fierce yew]

lol. The first just frames I would suggest you learn is your punish just frames

Which is 1 2 4, and Acid rain 1333

[karmic roost]

and 444?

[fierce yew]

That one as well. I need to use it more often

TGS Lee but not using 444 as a punish. Ggs

[still linden]

444 is the easiest one to learn. Most lenient timing

[karmic roost]

trying to polish up so i can get from TK to god ranks

[fierce yew]

Literally stops his leg until you input the last 4

[still linden]

Hell with this Kuni balance patch maybe they'll even buff Lee

[fierce yew]

Ima be honest, ranked is free asf rn.

I stayed on TE (Fahkumram), and TK for Lee last season.

[fierce yew]

Ngl he don’t need it. Characters actually kinda nuts atm

[still linden]

Nah they'll nerf his heat, then make 1+2 into Hitman even more +ob

That shit was - in T7

[fierce yew]

He just doesn’t need that. 1+2 is already a god button😭

[karmic roost]

yeah i fly through the ranks since of a lot of the lower ranks don’t have fundamentals unfortunately

[fierce yew]

His heat is…ngl it’s interesting for me

Cuz it’s like, his heat wavers between actual godlike behavior, or actual dogshit

[fierce yew]

Real tekken don’t start unless it’s TG (and even then some people are nutjobs. 43 defense and they be in GOD)

[karmic roost]

i just frame trap crazy people

[fierce yew]

Literally just B33 your way to TG because most players just like to either mash or don’t block low

[fierce yew]

Real shit

[karmic roost]

my 1+2 pickups are on point

so i just kill people with that on counter bit

[fierce yew]

Fr. It carries most of Lee’s neutral

That and DF1

[karmic roost]

but yeah i think i got a strong base to polish and clean up

[fierce yew]

<@&1003661073049722891> T8 anyone?

[still linden]

Got like 20 minutes or so if you're still playing

[fierce yew]

Yeah I’m still playing

[still linden]

Gonna be flailing about with Kuni lol

[plush forge]

Mind if i join?

[karmic roost]

[still linden]

I'll send invites

@plush forge sent an invite

[plush forge]

[fierce yew]

Apologies if I’m not playing as well. I’m kinda sick atm

[fierce yew]

The cons of being sick

[fierce yew]

Yeah…her

[karmic roost]

oh whoops didn’t mean to misgender if i did

[fierce yew]

Nah it’s fine. Not offended

[still linden]

Good old full screen projectile kunai toss

Nothing beats that

But her lack of standing lows is starting to annoy me

[karmic roost]

accidentally got timed out looking for drag

[plush forge]

Damn, didn't want to play the mashing minigame

[still linden]

[plush forge]

Headbutt carnival is a timing thing sure, but everyone just presses all the face buttons as fast as possible

[still linden]

@plush forge wanna go in room b or spectate?

[plush forge]

I might call it

Almost 2:30

[still linden]

Damn

Legit surprised I've had as long as I've had to myself

She's up to something..

I'm glad I'm not the only one who still thinks Lee's FF3 is still -11

[plush forge]

GGs everyone

[fierce yew]

Jesus.

So button heavy

[still linden]

Ggs

[still linden]

Welcome to T8

[karmic roost]

welcome to lee in T8. he’s got hella likes
