One thing I have to note is that unfortunately this is essentially just the downloaded Twitch vod and not the recorded/edited version I originally planned on uploading. That means that quality isn't as crisp as usual, and I wasn't able to balance and process the audio the way I normally do. For whatever reason my software just COULD NOT render the footage. It froze over & over again no matter what I tried so I had to settle for this. Hopefully you guys enjoy anyway and are able to take something away from it as well!
I mean there are worlds of skill difference between blue and red ranks. One is achievable by newbies and the other only with over 1000hours of grinding
i think that in tekken you really don't feel like you are really good until you reach the highest tier of ranks. Because the more you rank up, the more you realize that the world is a big place and that there are a shitton of strong fighters out there. You might think you are okay, decent at the game. To someone else you are an ant and for alot of others you are a elephant. This is something i have come to realize over my 3 years of playing tekken. Started very late in t7's lifespan and got to fight alot of very experienced players early on so i got a feel for what makes a player good and what makes a player bad. After all that it's just practise until you get it, it takes time and we are in no means in any hurry. Let it take the time it takes and enjoy the ride, because if you happen to fall in love with this amazing series of games you got alot of learning and fun stuff to do ahead of you.
Watched the whole thing even though I don't play Hwoarang. My brother does and I'm using this as opposition research lol. Good stuff! Kwiss does the same noises I do when getting my timing down😅
AYYYYEEE FELLOW BEAR MAIN! But lol yeah felt, I too watch vids on tips and tricks of characters but never to play em only to learn how to maul em with Kuma.
I absolutely freaked out when I saw a 3 HOUR LOTUS VID. We all absolutely adore you, Lotus, and appreciate this insane quality and quantity of content.
A total treat to get this collab, especially for a Hwoarang main. A lot of great insight that I can't wait to implement! Hurt my wrist learning all of K-Wiss's combos though, so waiting for my leverless to arrive so I can get back to the climb 💪
Id love to see this as a weekly~ish thing! I was able to take a lot from this to apply to my own game play that took me from yellow/orange to red, so i'd love to see more.
Seeing Asuka as Gojo made me realize that Law would make a great Toji. Love the video btw bro, very new to Tekken so watching TH-camrs like you helps motivate me to pick up the controller when i can and try my luck. its slow but i'll get there eventually.
Just a little tip (for pad specifically) for those who are struggling with Just Frame Sky Rocket If you want an easier method rather than trying to force both of your hands to coordinate it, you can bind 1+4 to one of your left side shoulder buttons (whichever you prefer) and this will make it significantly easier. It's much easier coordinating timing with one hand rather than both Keep in mind that this method isn't free, and you will still have to time it properly, this is just an easier method
Nice video, alot of tech I didnt know, I had issues with feedback with my inputs on ps5 controller, my savior was the controller settings button test feature, you can see exactly when the game registers your down forward input, now I can electric uppercut pretty often
Kwiss is one of the greatest tekken players in history. You heard it here first. Once this game is fleshed out, I think he's gonna dominate the offline scene.
I'm a Yoshi main. Never played Hwoarang... But I am using a keyboard because there are no available fight sticks in the area... I landed the just frame sky rocket thrice in a row and drop it every now and then. Yes, blue sparks and everything on both player 1 and player 2 sides. All I did was press the kick button on the neutral input and do it as fast as possible as if I'm attempting a perfect electric.
F 2 is plus 9 and puts you in mix, why is kings 2 1 any different? Because it’s a grab? Like you can’t break or duck grabs though, it’s the same amount of mix as other characters but instead of a full combo it’s a grab which if you guess right or mash 1 on most kings you won’t even have to deal with it, you guys say king is sooo great but in reality he’s as good as everyone else
They need to fix the ranking system. I am Raijin atm but i am very well aware I shouldnt be in this rank. Demote should bring you back to start point at previous rank and promo match shouldnt give too much points. We also should be obligated to finish the best of 3 sets so people cannot do one and dones. If you accept the match and leave after 1 set, you should lose the bof3.
Facts...i know i am below average even after all these years of playing the tekken series. Ive always just played against the cpu and friends and family back in the day. But now im trying online with 8 and im getting folded half of my matches..
@@randallmart92I was literally where you are last year and this year I’ve found ranked fun up Until my ruler promo which is kind of where I was in 7 last I left off😅 I love switched to arcade stick coz I’m 40 and my hands are wrecked using pad hurts and makes my fingers trigger the next day so now I’m ass coz I can’t use stick yet the buttons are so big and microdashes aren’t a thing with the stick yet. Keep at it and it will click watch Kwiss videos he has a prior training video with someone’s that’s a begginer probably orange/red ranks at a push. Failing that check out a streamer called frontier (search frontier hwoarang) his cheese videos are insane he’s taught me a lot from complete novice (didn’t know about d34 strings) it’s only tekken seven techs coz he’s not released anything for 8 yet but I think a lot of it translates
A previously sponsored player with multiple 1st place and Top 8 finishes isn't a pro? lol. K Wiss is literally one of the best players in Europe & the world for that matter .
@LotusAsakura I had no idea he had those accolades. I can't remember the last time I seen his name in a top 8 major. But I take back what I said then he def a pro with those stats 😭😭
Just finished the video 🎉 you are working on the same five things ive been working on 😅 my movement is nicer than yours and my skyrockets were ahead of yours until you got the forward neutral 4 df thing and now you are where i am. But you are a better hwoarang than me in regards to defence, reads, your combo and wall damage. I’m away at my mums this week so cant practice 😢 you will be well up into purple ranks after this and I’ll still be stuck trying to get ruler and learning arcade stick.

Its basically the extended cut, I dig it
was wondering where the upload was. Glad we get to watch the training regardless
Love you’re content bro, whether it’s a vod or not I know this boutta be gas
Its exactly what i needed thankyou
YES BROTHER. Also I'm noticing this really big wave of creators coaching each other at a bunch of different levels which is great to see.
That face hittin JFSR was *chefs kiss*
Kwiss was like a proud dad
During that first match I couldn’t help but think, ‘Dam Lotus be looking wayyy better when he whoopin up on Afro’ 😂
It was not some of my best play + that guy was just better than me lol.
I mean there are worlds of skill difference between blue and red ranks. One is achievable by newbies and the other only with over 1000hours of grinding
As someone who’s been just starting to learn Hwoarang, glad to get a video with both of you 🙌🙌
Same, working on my hwoa offense rn so I saw this and was hype af
Ain't no damn way they let you on the team vs RDc, ans now you training with Wiss? Sheesh

Now this is the collab we all needed to see
Watched the whole thing even though I don't play Hwoarang. My brother does and I'm using this as opposition research lol. Good stuff! Kwiss does the same noises I do when getting my timing down😅
As a Kuma main, I'm happy to learn Hwoarang so I can counter him 😂
AYYYYEEE FELLOW BEAR MAIN! But lol yeah felt, I too watch vids on tips and tricks of characters but never to play em only to learn how to maul em with Kuma.

Just started learning Tekken with Hwo and STRUGGLING against my Tekken vet friends. This helped a ton. Appreciate you guys.

what leverless did you get ?
I ended up going stick coz playing pad for a year has given me carpel tunnel and trigger finger that wont heal
Pressing the buttons still hurts 😂 and im finding the stick an adjustment
Id love to see this as a weekly~ish thing! I was able to take a lot from this to apply to my own game play that took me from yellow/orange to red, so i'd love to see more.

The fact you have played ranked and done well with howrang without practicing a lot of movement practice is pretty crazy.
Seeing Asuka as Gojo made me realize that Law would make a great Toji. Love the video btw bro, very new to Tekken so watching TH-camrs like you helps motivate me to pick up the controller when i can and try my luck. its slow but i'll get there eventually.
Bro his wavedash and back dash method is genius!! I’m def going to start practicing that as well !

Thoroughly enjoyed this good sir
Lets fucking GO! Training Arc.
Been waiting for this video!!
Man I’m not even halfway through the vid and I’m in love with your stage music
Do you know the song at 14:49
This may be one of my favorite thumbnails in a while
When he said "nah fuck chat lock in" i felt that 😂
Where was that?
@DStation-kg4kf I believe in the first game, lotus says "sorry I'm not being very attentive to chat" or something
Tekken's training and replay mode is fucking insane
THIS WHAT I WAITED FOR! My two goats 🥹🥹
This is a prime example of just because something works doesn’t mean it was the right option
I'm going to be re-watching this video so many times. 😅
saving this so i can watch later and try to absorb as much as i can
As a Hwoarang main as well I’ve learned a lot now to get in the lab
I’m at my mums for the week 😅 no ps5 I could play my dads Xbox and lab 7 but it won’t be the same. I’m gutted
@@TOAST-FACEKILLAH TOUGH BRO
@@JoshFoo23 I’ve never been more desperate to lab in my life
1:48:34 This is possibly the funniest way Lotus could have said this lmao
lowkey feels like watching Jirayia learn sage mode🙌🙌
Tht first guy lotus fought reminds me of Todd Ingram from Scott pilgrim lol
Yooo a k-wiss and lotus collar?? Goated
Holding forward during stance switch makes hwo do a lil hop forward..... 🤯

this entire time i thought he was using a fight stick
Small request Lotus - drop the game volume or up your vocal audio so we can hear you better and that majestic voice
Bam bam
Aye did yall know you can see jun walking around the background of that stage where he fought king, the lil desert stage
Now this is the perfect video for me lmao
skyrocket unlocked indeed
Yo man, do you sometimes play your viewers? I’m a raijin and would love to play you sometime.
1:00:33 did he call him a Mashochist? That's hilarious, Imma steal that for mashin' ass players.
Why tf does that quote sound like a Tekken emo song? 😂
“I’ll duck the throw, block the low, and if I get hit with a mid; whatever”
Thank you for this. HIYAHHH
King players are the ones that run the most

Anyone ever find themselves singing the main menu music everytime it plays.
Why don’t you just bind 3+4 for easy stance switch
oh my god i kept getting confused by the discord notifs in the video
Bob’s your uncle, Fanny’s your aunt
Dude maybe there is something wrong with your controller that making u not learn the jfsr, try doing it with different controller
🎉
Ayo?? A long ahh vid?

Agree with all but demoting to the start of the previous rank. Half way same as 7 at least you psycho 😅
@@TOAST-FACEKILLAH yeah thats more balanced.
aye lotus how do you feel about jin? idk if youve stated it before because i just thought about it
He's really cool. Would probably play him if I had the execution.
✋🏾 show of hands who watched the whole video just to know with hwoarang options are cuz I know I did
3:06:34
everytime you say ur just ok it makes me feel so dogshit at the game lul

Snow Castle from tekken 5
Calling Kwiss a pro is bit of a stretch lol
A previously sponsored player with multiple 1st place and Top 8 finishes isn't a pro? lol. K Wiss is literally one of the best players in Europe & the world for that matter .
@LotusAsakura I had no idea he had those accolades. I can't remember the last time I seen his name in a top 8 major. But I take back what I said then he def a pro with those stats 😭😭
