I am in Byakko and starting to encounter Noctis players more and more often. Before watching this video I struggled badly against them, now they don’t even seem like a major threat. Thanks a lot!
This video helps because I can't lab any DLC characters. Don't have the season pass or any DLC in general which is bs so I have to resort to youtube videos.
As some others have said he parry is wonderful when they're up close and also his power crush still exists. I will occasionally try to throw a jab of my own and then buffer ff1+2. Another homing move no one mentions is uf4. It's actually safer at -5 and you can still parry and potentially side step after it. Utilizing all these tools in real time is difficult nonetheless and Noctis is still weak in close quarters. db1 tracks his left side and d2 tracks his right as well.
Take note that Noct can also use Warp Strike (f2) to close the distance fast if you try to back dash away from him a lot. It's safe so if you jab immediately after, he can parry that. Speaking of his parry, it's also a good tool to escape pressure as long as you don't abuse it where it becomes predictable.
Or you can just delete him from the roster, that's what I did. Every time I see Noctis (once every 100 online games),I quit the spamming bitch and move on to the next opponent. Works like a charm.
The sad thing about Noctis is that you can't play him without abusing his two key moves. You can't really rely on anything else and if your opponent can handle your d/b+1+2's and d/b+2's well, you're pretty much helpless. Not having a dick jab also hurts quite a lot.
The problem with always staying in Noctis' face though, is that once they use his parry on you, not only does the parry's strike smack you away, but he is also now perfectly setup for a free wr1+2
this needs an update because i have been fighting noctis around fujin rank and i very rarely can win.. the only punishes i can do are 1,2,2 (feng) or 1,3... thats how safe this noctis is playing... or i guess thats how say his moves in general are...
Great video! Here are other things you have to consider when playing Noctis: Noctis has a blade for every distance for experienced users. It depends on who uses him when you fight if they know how to use every blade and the teleport attacks and side steps you are in danger. He also has 2 hit diagonal slash that's high/low and a 5 hit slash combo you have to be patient for your counter attacks. The best players against him for me are Bob, Lee, and Dragnov if you know how to use them.
I guess Julia and kazumi are also pretty bad matchups for noctis. Julia has party crasher pressure, good counter hit tools and the wind roll mix-ups from shotgun he can't interrupt even on block. Df1 mix-ups are all that kazumi needs.
You should side step while you are far to but you shuold side step guard because you can still side step d/b 2 and because other moves are to slow you. Can side step guardy easily
Im destroyer with bryan but a grandmaster noctics players is beating me.such long range crazy sword all safe??tekken needs to reconcider this character
Reaver?? Maaaan, that's some old school stuff right there, nice! Rather, he would be a Siege Tank in siege mode because they can't do anything to units in their face. So, StarCraft play-through when? XD
My cousin is a Noctis main and it is so triggering. On the bright side i get ample practice against this match-up. I'm starting to destroy him without breaking a sweat sometimes. I'm a Hwoarang main so he's getting practice against this match-up as well.
KingNeli Steve players fish for counter hits it’s their gameplane so id play defensive and try to keep him out of pressuring you. Don’t press buttons id focus on punished.
As an Asuka main, what I can tell you is: - Get close and use quick jabs, she won't be able to use the d+2 counter blizzard combo cuz it is slow af -Duck, most of her best moves are high or low, but watch out for f+2 and f/u+4 launchers -Don't use characters that are slower than her -Don't use Steve I hope this helps
@@Fallconn2 I would feel bad doing it but here in Brazil ranked is cancer, full of toxic players. I could keep playing my mains and when I get frustrated I play with Noctis to release the ora power and calm down
Yes sure but my point here is that the ora is not the only threat in his move list. Not everyone plays noctis like TMM. he has other tools you know. Of course ora is braindead broken but he has some poking moves as well.
This is how you fight noctis. *gets launched immediately after*
@Morgan Perotti who asked tho?
I realize Im pretty off topic but do anyone know a good place to watch new series online?

The high priest is looking mighty handsome as always.
As a Noct player this improves my game plan and learning the weakness of my character
Lol. Sounds funny when you consider noctis requires absolutely no skills to play. Noctis is a one big gimmick
Åra
@ballyman truth has no feelings. Why should I cry
@@crazy911wman or you're just salty cause you cant counter noctis, hence why u clicked on this video ;)
well done, you've played yourself
@@xypherpl9506 counter? im here to see the "noctis elitist" proud of being the main of the worst character tekken has ever released
TMM has been promoted to Tekken Hero with these vids. Cant thank you enough!
I've only played against noctis once and when I opened this video whilst matchmaking he appeared again.
Maindaddyswe is sending me a message.
The thing is I don't know a lot of Noctis players who use those "big" moves up close
You can’t.Ora Ora Ora Ora Ora.

but noctis players will never ora at that range
that's the point
he does have a parry and that damn roll mixup tho
Thanks! Looking forward to more in the series.
I’ll keep this in mind next time! Ty

as a jim player i love parrying Noctis oraaaaaaa
The dark souls Gwyn music around 9 mins was great to hear
Or you can just delete him from the roster, that's what I did. Every time I see Noctis (once every 100 online games),I quit the spamming bitch and move on to the next opponent. Works like a charm.
i have a friend, noctis main , and really hard to fight him, me using kazuya hardly struggle to win
The sad thing about Noctis is that you can't play him without abusing his two key moves. You can't really rely on anything else and if your opponent can handle your d/b+1+2's and d/b+2's well, you're pretty much helpless. Not having a dick jab also hurts quite a lot.
so true
Just spam 2, that's what everyone else does
Plin plin plon for when I have to see noctis on my screen
The problem with always staying in Noctis' face though, is that once they use his parry on you, not only does the parry's strike smack you away, but he is also now perfectly setup for a free wr1+2
If he starts abusing the parry, try grabbing him.
If you know hes gonna parry, then wait for it, then launch him
So essentially Noctis cant dogfight and infight. Noted. Sticking to my kaz and steve.
Thank you so much for these videos mainman!!
Finally, a GOOD video about Noctis XD
It makes sense, long weapons like spears and lingswords lose effectiveness at very close range.
Not really, Noctis has bs parry
Ayy lamo Command and Conquer great RTS game series.
Plz do one for Anna and Julia
I need help
How to counter Noctis?
*UNLEASH THE STEVE!*
I said the same shit man. Steve wrecks everybody. Love boxers

At close range noctis abuse the parry to escape the pression

You win.
Im destroyer with bryan but a grandmaster noctics players is beating me.such long range crazy sword all safe??tekken needs to reconcider this character
Bryan is strong at pressure upclose, you gotta practice that more
7 Noctis player dislike the video
Thx man
such a cheap character, 0 fundamentals needed to get him to a high rank
Reaver?? Maaaan, that's some old school stuff right there, nice!
Rather, he would be a Siege Tank in siege mode because they can't do anything to units in their face.
So, StarCraft play-through when? XD
is TMM playing with the ps4 version or pc version?
PC
My cousin is a Noctis main and it is so triggering. On the bright side i get ample practice against this match-up. I'm starting to destroy him without breaking a sweat sometimes. I'm a Hwoarang main so he's getting practice against this match-up as well.
Going to watchbthis. Just faced one last night. I got 3-4wins on him but this cheap scrub got far more playing keep away and using that sword.
How to counter Lei Wulong
Science
Dick jab and low hitting mids. Block punish. Works for me. But then again, I play defensively lol
Is Noctis the most low tier character in the game?
No.
Noctis isn’t bad, he just isn’t super strong against high level players. Doesn’t mean you shouldn’t play him though.
He's actually decent, but that's about it.
Do Steve pls I keep getting shit on by my friend but that's probably cause I'm bad not due to the matchup
U need to backdash, use long range moves to keep him out and don't press random buttons when he pressures you.
KingNeli Steve players fish for counter hits it’s their gameplane so id play defensive and try to keep him out of pressuring you. Don’t press buttons id focus on punished.
Can you please make anti dragunov and anti AK?
Love it 💓
Hi TMM, could you do «How to counter Asuka ?» :)
As an Asuka main, what I can tell you is:
- Get close and use quick jabs, she won't be able to use the d+2 counter blizzard combo cuz it is slow af
-Duck, most of her best moves are high or low, but watch out for f+2 and f/u+4 launchers
-Don't use characters that are slower than her
-Don't use Steve
I hope this helps
Thanks for this... I hate Noctis!

You always cannot pressure Noctis close with jab or other moves, forgot parry .
Vishal Venugopal yes but what Noctis player cares enough to learn a 3 rd move
@@amircat1009 well I am myself a Noctis player.
Vishal Venugopal point proven only 2 moves
@@amircat1009 lmao, why do noctis players look for complexity in a braindead character. Go play another character you weebs
Well online sucks now they adding combo assist. When someone smashing the assist button on noctis sadly they win.
They need to delete this character, him and Akuma need to go. This character is a scrubs paradise.
Can Akuma be next for these videos? Feels like whenever I play him once every 6 months it's a game of guess right twice or die.

Do Katarina ♥️
Katarina PLSSSSSSSSS
My guilty pleasure is that I want to play with Noctis. But I have a mental block every time I think about buying him. What I should do?
If you're ok with being a dickhead buy him, if you fight headassery with headassery then buy him, otherwise keep your 5 bucks
Do it no reason not to
Joe Aguiar if ranked pisses you off you could just buy Noctis and take your frustration out on the peasants who aren’t worthy enough for the church
@@Fallconn2 I would feel bad doing it but here in Brazil ranked is cancer, full of toxic players. I could keep playing my mains and when I get frustrated I play with Noctis to release the ora power and calm down
@AlmightyStarfire Thanks for the tip "AlmightyStarfire"
wowed!
TMM if you get to get too far the noctis player just throw the sword at you. It’s not only the Ora.
but that leaves him close which is the worst position for noctis
Yes sure but my point here is that the ora is not the only threat in his move list. Not everyone plays noctis like TMM. he has other tools you know. Of course ora is braindead broken but he has some poking moves as well.
