Seeing Atif going against Nobi at Losers Finals was just sad, an absolute beating, Nobi couldn't even do anything These guys are just on a whole other level.
arslans defense stops every aggressive player under pressure. people dont talk about his clutch low parries that only he reads in the most pressure situations
Well..., apart from arslan being overwhelmingly strong (as usual), I'd like to think that arslan has played with atif more than anyone who competed in EVO ever had. I think fellow pakistani pros are the only ones who could give him a hard time. As they have more experience playing with each other.
Atif and Arslan Ash in this Tekken Top 6, against players from other countries: 🇵🇰 Atif 6-0 🇯🇵 Keisuke 🇵🇰 Arslan 6-0 🇸🇦 Raef 🇵🇰 Atif 9-0 🇯🇵 Nobi Both players only dropped ROUNDS against each other, every other match was a blow out... Pakistan Tekken is actually absurd.
Arslan actually dropped a round to Dragonslayer during pools it actually went to final final round closest he came to losing, and Nobi actually went final final round against Atif during pools. Atif just downloaded Nobi massively between day 2 and 3.
Who was the big fat guy who played Tekken forever, and his name started with A? I thought it was Arslan, but clearly, it's not him. He used to make TH-cam videos, too. This guy had been playing Tekken forever.
No one could even touch Atif for three days and Arslan made him swap characters which tells you alot. Personally i tought Arslan can’t stop Atif but the patience Arslan has is admirable.
I think we still don’t understand how dominant Arslan is.. What Atif did to Nobi is a war crime.. And the fact that Arslan put the brakes on him is stunning.. I honestly won’t be surprised if Arslan becomes a 10 time champ.
its crazy to think that arslan and atif probably played over 5000 games vs each other at this point, if not more. Being training partners since the beginning and then facing each other in grand final. Atif was the only one who could make it remotely difficult for arslan, crazy players and region
This was SUCH a Goku VS Vegeta moment! no one even came close to Atif till Grand Finals and it took the GOAT himself to give Atif a run for his money GOOD ASS fuckin Tekken from both honestly, this was such a hype match, especially that last second comeback during game 2
His humbleness and calmness wins the respect and game all times, so focused and well put blocks and punishes executions 👏🏻 well deserved Arslan Ash congratulations 🎉
Still thriving even at Tekken 8 is insane. many people said arslan is T7 player and doubting him but here we are, this dude adapted to the game and becomes unstoppable. GG 5 time Evo champ arslan ash.
when he admitted that he needs to adapt and stop whining he started placing well and eventually back on his throne again. goat, gotta appreciate him while he still plays cause he did say that he's retiring early.
We can see that Atif has really adapted and used T8's style to another level, while Arslan managed to bring over his T7 style to use it well here. Pak playing their own game at a higher level
Cmon man. There's really no doubt at this point. Going on tournament runs is one thing. Arslan is pretty much farming Evos at this point. He may be the quickest Goat candidate for any sport in history.@@froggythekid8955

Arslan is the irrefutable G.O.A.T. 5 times evo champion in such a short time and in tourneys that are this stacked, surreal. Bro not only held his own but played unbelievably good in a top 6 where everyone was exclusively using the buffed Dragunov.
Nina is arguably stronger than Dragunov from a pressure sense, in a clutch environment via her animations and less pick rate, she also has insane wall travel and slightly broken damage. Many men prefer to play Dragunov because he's a cool character, male char preference and its less far less of a playstyle shift than playing characters like Nina or Xiaoyu. Most players don't have a strong passionate main in T8 yet, only true King/Nina/Dragunov/Xiaoyu/Feng mains can be relatively happy but Tekken's neutral shift to spam aggression has hurt a diverse gameplay and gamestyle scene. People hand out GOAT's too casually, its ridiculous, we've had the same old players while Arslan is an obsessed fresh youth who's happy to spam awkward female picks while most pro's are passionate about their male characters.

@@tristan4558 Ye Arslan is such a Nina main that he used Nina regularly in T7 tournaments...like never.

Like Xiaoyu is super annoying to handle but we barely see any of her, its not rocket science, men have their preferences. I just ultimately wish were could see Tekken leagues, a return to neutral and rewarding more legacy characters with wall travel and "GUNS" as much as Nina. Short sets and aggressive playstyles are also biased.
Pakistan is the best because they all play together and help each other. Putting in thousands of sets and telling each other their weaknesses, etc. They're truly a brotherhood of Tekken players. It's cool. Other regions need to do the same if they ever wanna compete with them.
@@aryanburnwal2371well knee did say he has a hard time adapting to the rush down style of tekken 8,not taking anything from anyone else but knee was always a defensive player and tekken 8 doesn't reward defence as much
people were really trying to convince me that the GOAT was washed and not gonna adapt to tekken 8. absolutely maniacal. congrats to the greatest of all time, Arslan Ash.
As a Pakistani this makes me so proud seeing Atif and Arslan in the finals Two of our very best What I love about Arslan is how much he’s helped his fellow Pakistani competitors and upcoming players as well To come from absolutely nothing and be a world champion is just incredible
Arslan ash is the final boss of fgc, I would like to see other pro players can take 5 titles Evo champions in row like he did, it doesn't have to be Tekken franchise. 5 years compete but no one can stop him or have same impressive record like him.
Arslan ash the 🐐 Pakistani players are the best. Only 2 or 3 players in every tournament and they are always in the top 3 insane consistency best region in the world.
Arslan is that GUY! Arslan has convinced me to start playing Tekken over SF. Even my friend who's been a long time SF player has moved across to play Tekken. Arslan is the GOAT of Tekken.

You're right. Arslan had already downloaded Atif's Dragunov in the Winner's Finals. Also, Atif was nervous and got carried away because Arslan was so close. Atif just started throwing everything without reading Arslan's moves or reflexes but Arslan was calm and composed as a Fox. Constantly playing in Grand Finals especially at EVO has trained Arslan for these pressure situations. He's way better at handling pressure.
Arslan Ash is the definition of being extremely extra ordinary at one thing and thats TEKKEN. I cannot fathom how this guy maintains his focus on this. LOVED the gameplay they both did, the excitement of who will win was thrilling asf!
What a frickin match 😍😍🙏 congratulations to Arslan,what a player 👏👏👏😎😎 Atif fought hard but that last second win after almost losing the round from Arslan was incredible ♥️♥️♥️😍
Actually so sick to see Arlsan win BECAUSE his defensive game is the best in the game. People said T8 was just spam, but clearly, we can see here that if you adapt and play smart Tekken, you'll be the one to be feared.
While i'm a knee fan but Arslan is a monster and makes s strong case of being the best in the world Pakistan players have always played agresive tekken and with tekken 8 being the definition of agresive they will rule tekken 8, i don't see the koreans adapting to their style case of thr defensive aproach they take in every tekken,this is not downplaying of pakistan players but tekken 8 just suits them more then the korean or japans players
you guys think atif that is apparently an "aggressive" players spams with no reason? And that arslan never presses buttons or challenges anything? Idk what you guys watch. They're both aggressive and defensive the same exact way
@@TheLifeLaVitawho said they spam like monkeys,they just take a more agresive aproach to the game and tekken 8 compliments their gameplay,they also have great defence,it's not like they just attack but in my opinion their attack is more on display then defence
@@dujekrneta7154 that doesn't make any sense. They attack when it's the right time to attack. Everyone would do that, they shouldn't stand still. Arslan interrupted atif countless times here and challenged the strings. If anything Arslan is the aggressive one. They way I've seen use it it is a flawed metric
@TheLifeLaVita bruh, interrupting attacks is defensive play. It's not a passive thing. It's the reason Arslan is goated. In football, there's a saying that I love: offence wins you games, defence wins you championships.

Knee will ALWAYS be know as one of the greatest of all time, but he's not having a good time with T8, didn't even get to finals.
@@aryanburnwal2371well knee did say he has a hard time adapting to the rush down style of tekken 8,not taking anything from anyone else but knee was always a defensive player and tekken 8 doesn't reward defence as much
This is the greatest battle in tekken history. What a final
people were really trying to convince me that the GOAT was washed and not gonna adapt to tekken 8. absolutely maniacal. congrats to the greatest of all time, Arslan Ash.
8:22 surely we call that the HAWK TUAH tech
As a Pakistani this makes me so proud seeing Atif and Arslan in the finals
Two of our very best
What I love about Arslan is how much he’s helped his fellow Pakistani competitors and upcoming players as well
To come from absolutely nothing and be a world champion is just incredible
My god that was crazy match both were equally tough.. goodness gracious
5 EVOs in 6 years. 2 years of winning both EVO Japan and EVO back to back... mother of god...
🐐
Can’t believe my two favorite fighting game characters won evo (Cammy and Nina) congrats to Arslan. 5 times gotta make him the goat
Arslan ash is the final boss of fgc, I would like to see other pro players can take 5 titles Evo champions in row like he did, it doesn't have to be Tekken franchise.
5 years compete but no one can stop him or have same impressive record like him.
Arslan ash the 🐐 Pakistani players are the best. Only 2 or 3 players in every tournament and they are always in the top 3 insane consistency best region in the world.
Arslan is that GUY! Arslan has convinced me to start playing Tekken over SF. Even my friend who's been a long time SF player has moved across to play Tekken. Arslan is the GOAT of Tekken.
I think if they are not hindered with visa issues these Pakistanis will rule the Tekken World.
They already are 😂😂😂
@@Randomdad. There are many who still aren't able to travel for several reasons. Who play only locally. They would have been fun to watch as well.
@@UmarMunir94 Yeahhh Khan, Tanveer, Bilal, Heera, Dawood(?), hell whatever happened to that one Pakistan Akuma player, Atiff something? But yeah Pakistan, big sheesh...
@@jamessummers5936bruh, you are watching the match of Atif 🤦
@@AmirAli-jn7lg My bad, not Atiff it was somebody with a similar name? There were like 2 strong Pak players, but their first names were the same, let me go look...
Awais Honey, that's the other player I was thinking of.
Really wish the video was like 30 minutes long, just to prevent spoilers of whose going to win based off of how much time is left
Happy to see nina main player like that 😊
this is my favourite game watching and playing since childhood. So proud of you Arsalan . You just keep excelling.
So amazing to see two of our boys in the grand finals against each other!!! 🤯🤯🤯
The blondes are the evo champions of Tekken 8!!
Cammy won SF6, so more blonde girl UK power I guess.
@@mappybc6097 Nina is Irish. She'll shoot you on sight for calling her UK lmao.
@@KristoforusBagaskara She is from Northern Ireland, which afaik is part of the United Kingdom.
@@mappybc6097 Irishfolks don't like being called as anything from UK. Many've been trying to be independent.
two pakistani players in takken finals.... wow.. mashaAllah. Proud that our lions are such dominant.
congratulations! love you both guys. greetings from Türkiye
Arslan Ash is unbeatable 🔥
Huge respect for Atif. He is a beast 💪 too
Would best Tekken player arslan
`Sajada` (Sujood, Bowing head to the floor) at the end, will be remembering forever... 🙂
Congrats `Arslan Ash` for winning EVO Tournaments for the 5th times ! 🙂
With feng Atif was not giving time to breathe. He should have taken feng since beginning
You're right. Arslan had already downloaded Atif's Dragunov in the Winner's Finals. Also, Atif was nervous and got carried away because Arslan was so close. Atif just started throwing everything without reading Arslan's moves or reflexes but Arslan was calm and composed as a Fox. Constantly playing in Grand Finals especially at EVO has trained Arslan for these pressure situations. He's way better at handling pressure.
@@UmarMunir94 yes exactly. Experience matters.
Thats why I said Atif will comeback next year and will be the winner
Can’t agree more. It would have been insane if Atif have pulled the reset, the hype would have been out of the park.
@@samaashob what does reset mean?
진심으로 이번 evo tekken8 재미있게 잘봤습니다 ~ 아티프도 잘하는데 아슬란은 어마어마하네요 ....
Alhamdulliah 🖤 am happy for our brother Arsalan, and hope best for the future of our second brother atif 🇵🇰🖤
Arslan Ash is the definition of being extremely extra ordinary at one thing and thats TEKKEN. I cannot fathom how this guy maintains his focus on this.
LOVED the gameplay they both did, the excitement of who will win was thrilling asf!
If Arslan continues playing Tekken for another 6 years.
He must have used his toes. To tell the number of EVO championships he has received.😂
Haha o got the image already
He'd have to hold the trophy in his mouth because he ran out of fingers in one hand.
There are 4 Evos by next year so he can do it in less than 3 yrs
This is actually a GREAT matchup of characters frfr. Takes a lot of skill to play those characters..
8:23 My brother really said HAWK TUA
You did well, Atif. I won't forget you for as long as I live.
Next year Atif will come back with fire. Next evo champion will be Atif
arslan look so humble when he won, good for him!
As soon as that parry hit i just kept yelling rage art and just didnt do it was hoping we get a reset but was still awesome
It happens under that pressure so it's fine with me
Both pakistani.. Wow they still rocks in tekken 8
Arslan's defence and adjustments were so good.
Unreal domination from Pakistan in Tekken🙌
Arsalan is unbelievably good at pressure points
What a frickin match 😍😍🙏 congratulations to Arslan,what a player 👏👏👏😎😎 Atif fought hard but that last second win after almost losing the round from Arslan was incredible ♥️♥️♥️😍
Actually so sick to see Arlsan win BECAUSE his defensive game is the best in the game.
People said T8 was just spam, but clearly, we can see here that if you adapt and play smart Tekken, you'll be the one to be feared.
While i'm a knee fan but Arslan is a monster and makes s strong case of being the best in the world
Pakistan players have always played agresive tekken and with tekken 8 being the definition of agresive they will rule tekken 8, i don't see the koreans adapting to their style case of thr defensive aproach they take in every tekken,this is not downplaying of pakistan players but tekken 8 just suits them more then the korean or japans players
you guys think atif that is apparently an "aggressive" players spams with no reason? And that arslan never presses buttons or challenges anything? Idk what you guys watch. They're both aggressive and defensive the same exact way
@@TheLifeLaVitawho said they spam like monkeys,they just take a more agresive aproach to the game and tekken 8 compliments their gameplay,they also have great defence,it's not like they just attack but in my opinion their attack is more on display then defence
@@dujekrneta7154 that doesn't make any sense. They attack when it's the right time to attack. Everyone would do that, they shouldn't stand still. Arslan interrupted atif countless times here and challenged the strings. If anything Arslan is the aggressive one. They way I've seen use it it is a flawed metric
@TheLifeLaVita bruh, interrupting attacks is defensive play. It's not a passive thing. It's the reason Arslan is goated.
In football, there's a saying that I love: offence wins you games, defence wins you championships.
Damn the clutchest of the clutch is what made him champ once again.
It’s just Akuma….
It’s just infinite stage…
Removes Akuma removed infinite stages.
Pakistan gets stronger.
🇵🇰♥️
The hawk tuah reference for nina lololol that caught me by surprise 8:20
I lost it at that too 😂😂
