My routine to go from orange to fujin in a few days with jack was watch joe crush and anakin videos, try their stuff in practice, play casuals for an hour or two applying everything i learnt and trying to defend a lot to learn, then ranked for 1-2 hours max. Ill do the same to tekken king if i ever feel like i care again😂
I always go into practice mode and practice combos (and just frames, and setups, and tricky moves) for a few minutes before entering ranked play. What I really need to do is study throw escapes. I just don't have the time.
Such a great video. Tekken is not only about execution. It is about mindset and I feel you hit the nail on the head. I am a Shinryu Kazuya that is still climbing the ranks to establish my real rank - sitting on 90% wins so I know I am not at the rank I should be yet. Seems strange, perhaps, but I was only a Vanquisher in 7. My performances in T8 have elevated to a whole new level so I am aiming for Ruler ranks, possibly higher once I start using a real training routine. I like to work on combo warm ups mostly as my throw breaks are already excellent and my punishment is reasonable and being a Mishima main is so punishing if you don't warm up. Lastly, I 100% agree re. not always playing ranked. Sometimes, I simply do not feel my execution is good enough or I drop a punishment one too many times, so I just stick w' some quick matches for the day and move on with things. Keep up this level of content, my dude. You will go far with it!
I play Kazuya, currently at mighty ruler. T8 is my first serious Tekken game, I played T7 a little after the T8 was announced. I plan to get to Tekken King. I need work with throw breaking and reactions, so that is what I practice the most. Good tip on starting on viewing one replay - it makes you see your mistakes and start trying to avoid them, I will incorporate it. Thanks!
Needed this. I would always hop straight into Ranked because I know experience with players my level is necessary for evolution. However what would happen often was fluctuations between Tekken King and Bushin. Some days I would be getting FRIED by BASIC Flowcharts that my body just wouldn’t react to, and other days I make several Tekken GOD players plug 🔌 I think this video is necessary for overcoming the dreaded Plateau… SUB earned, well done 👍🏾 and thank you
i’m new to tekken ! i’m a top 1% cs player in NA and got to red in a week but i hate getting knowledge checked and losing simply because i don’t know what alisa is doing. A lot of quick match to gain experience and see everyone’s strings to try and build a good defense is my goal now, just gotta gain a lot of experience
Tekken is a game of knowledge, about that there is no short cut! But being so good on a competitive game like CS will definitely help you in the ranks!
im in asia and i was stuck in raijin (jin main) for a few months and im new to tekken with tekken 8. finally got to kishin recently only finding out that main issues for me in this rank (even at kishin) is being TOO defensive and honest, respecting everyone since i always play with higher level players for casuals. Once i improved my defense and learned when to disrespect/what type of players to disrespect i immediately got out of raijin and to kishin. But i have two issues. 1. Players who play characters like Bryan or Lili who play defensive and keepout 2. Players who rush down and overwhelm with mixups using characters like alisa/reina (i know the matchup for these 2 as i play alot of casuals against these characters) I am lost on how to deal with both of these type of players as for the 1st one, i do not know how to close the distance and start pressuring them, and for the 2nd one i just do not know how to get out of their pressure since they just 50/50 I actually aim to hit tekken king but i know im still far from that level of play. Amazing video by the way!
Battle Ruler Jun, started Tekken 3 months ago and havent played a 3d fighting game in a hot minute, set a goal to try and get to blue ranks by the end of the year!
- current rank: fujin - whats stopping me from going further: lack of tekken knowledge others gathered over the years.. its hard to learn the moveset of 30+ characters that are there for years and years.. pretty proud of the rank im currently "stuck" at, because i had to learn the game with 0 knowledge since the release.. gonna take a while until one gets used to the game completely and learn the things needed, but when it clicks its gonna be god ranks in no time
Raugh task indeed, there are several guides that tell you which moves you actually have to look for, so you need to learn 15 strings per character and not the full move set; study this in order of popularity of your ranks and you should see improvement rather "quickly"!
Kishin Raven (played Paul until Raijin before)- First ever fighting game - I think my biggest issue is legit knowledge. Wheter its certain moves of characters, where to step or perfectly optimitzed combos for certain situations. Im also not good at korean backdashing yet. I think ill be stuck at Kishin/Raijin for a long time, until I learn more. Just gonna take some time.
I have a kishin, a raijin, 11 fujins and the rest at Mighty. I still feel like I'm playing T7 and getting overwhelmed by knowledge checks and struggling to mount my own offense. I have always been more conservative in my play and I am drowning as a consequence. My highest last game was Emperor. One thing that is also hurting is just that I do not have a main. Unlike T7 there isn't a character that I love. I don't really have a main. Hoping eventually a DLC character will click. I just want Gigas back but I know it's very unlikely. Maybe Fahkumram, Jinpachi, any other big character. We'll see. For now I mainly play Jack-8.
I find it funny that you said you struggle with your own offense but mainly play Jack-8 😂, do you play Bryan ? I’ve been loving him and being someone who likes to play defensive with some aggression spikes he is the perfect character Also love your name
@@OctopusH2O Thanks man. I just got Bryan as far as Mighty Ruler. He seems good this game for sure. In Tekken 7 Jack was mainly defensive so I'm playing him like that, but with a couple of Gigas moves sprinkled in. Haven't quite adapted.
Tekken king with bryan climbed back on rank 2.0 ladder my problem is being more active in neutral with bryan And making quicker choices with my attacks
What’s keeping me from going above tk king: knowledge vs certain characters, not punishing stuff correctly, being cheesed to desth, xiaoyu’s aop avoiding anything and then i get launched, lazyness on my part 😂 to not play the game consistently everyday.
Most important: only play when you feel like having fun, don't force yourself to rank up have fun! Now onto the drill 1. Simple punish Drill (watch Phildx tutorial) if you're lazy use an i10 punish and an i15 punish (once you get comfortable start ducking high and throw breaking) 2. Keep your key move in your head such as move to counter low, Evasion, high, power crush Ex: Victor d1+2 would high crush and hit Xiaoyu out of AOP, Lee standing 3 will hit Xiaoyu and help keep opponent out sometimes can Beat Power Crush if he goes into Hitman 3. Warm up using Arcade practice anything you want using arcade (combos, high ducking, punish, Sidestep,...) if arcade does not help go to quick match You can be Lazy but at least practice a bit like 5-10 minutes and mainly have fun doing it
@@eckysgaming I feel like arcade does not give you a real fight even at the highest difficulty, that combat ends up being more "how to break a computer"
@@TheGianGame It's not about real combat. More like it's to help you be ready, you're using the Arcade to practice punish, high duck, movement,... It's a fast way to imitate a real match tho not really accurate, but it's still better than sitting in quick match waiting for that match that's never going to come and when it come you get match with someone 5-10 ranks lower than you (some region just take a long time to get a quick match)

Yo you're the same as me I started 3 months ago and I'm battle ruler. I usually bounce between mighty and battle ruler
@@TheGaara802 Update, had a real good day on ranked and a winstreak ended up landing me in Fujin! GLGL on the ladder, remember to have fun with it!
@@FilipdGB GG man!!!
I finally made it to Rajin was stuck between battle ruler and Fujin
Congratulation man, -3 to be King👑
- current rank: fujin

Indeed it is a game that requires patience!!
Bushin rank with Asuka and Raijin rank with Kuma. I could hit Tekken King with Asuka, but I don't feel motivated to do so as bushin was my goal
I play reina fujin and stuck. What to do?
Watch five of your losses then check out a Reina guide, compare what you have done right and what was wrong, and start correct from there!
@ thanks bruh!!!
Fujin, struggling to make it to Raijin with Leroy
More ss 1+2, pressure with wr3 , be unpredictable with db3.
@REPIN156 yeah I definitely gotta do WR3 more, I mostly do it on ppls wake up
@ not a bad idea. Use it after a heat engager.
@@REPIN156 didn't really think of that. Thanks!

Bruh half my fights i lose cause i suck at wave dashing 😭 sooooo hard to get consistent with it
Stick 10 min of wavu practice before every session!
