In Heat Mode, Heaven's Wrath also acts as a high/mid parry with massive parry window. If the opponents hits you during the duration of the stance, she automatically performs a throw on them that puts them into juggle state on the ground. Also, doing Heat Burst (2+3) during Heaven's Wrath while in Heat Mode performs an unique Burst that hits Low and looks incredibly badass.
Yeah, heaven's wrath is Reina's big payoff for using heat. It becomes significantly more threatening in heat mode. You get a true 50/50 with her low heat smash and her HW 2 option, which can be heat dash cancelled for a full combo. And the auto parry prevents people from pressing to try to interrupt your mixup. My go to strategy after any heat engager is to go into HW as soon as possible, usually from hellsweep or while running 4.
informative,assertive, confident tone, quick, clear content, and some impact words here and there, without that humorkilling hypeness many youtubers have. THIS IS THE GOAT MAN. really, keep it like this please. this is very , very good.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THESE. People keep telling how good this stance is but i kept using it out of sentai and just get jabbed out of it. This is quick clear and concise thanks alot
Your guides are straight and to the point with great showcasing! As a newbie to Tekken i appreciate that a lot, it does help when the info is said without rambling for dozens of minutes.
This is my first Tekken and Reina's my main, I love how she plays more than any FG character I've played before, and learning her is a blast. But the stance stuff is so complex that figuring out how to learn it all leaves me not sure where to start. Heaven's Wrath leads to so much cool stuff but I couldn't figure out how to enter it reliably without getting punished. I can't thank you enough for these vids that lay it all out clearly and let me see the whole picture, plus the suggestions, explanations and examples. This is easily the most helpful thing I've found so far!
One thing to note, the Heaven's Wrath grab 1+3/2+4 does 15 more damage at the wall, so basically full grab damage at the wall. So it's a good wake-up option for oki at the wall, they have to duck it, which opens them up to her Heaven's Wrath mid options.
Yea I was gonna mention this. It seems like the grab probably the best way to make your opponent not want to just block high against HW at the wall as the low option out of HW sucks.
@@Steamedhams578it’s for end round mind games. Both hits have counter hit properties too. If they anticipate the grab and don’t low parry, maybe they won’t react to the mid. Or if the swing trying to punish the low the second hit counters. It’s basically a risk it all tool. Useless in combat other than that so far.
Highly recommended you watch all the Reina guides he’s put out!!! If you’ve ever had any questions I’m pretty sure this guide covers more than enough even maybe just the perfect guides in general I’ve watched all of em now
man, long time tekken fan here and youtube watcher. these videos about reina, best of the best. better than MANY OF THE MAIN TEKKEN TH-camRS. please keep posting more reina, advanced stuff about her or t8. believe me this is REALLY A GOOD JOB. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

As a tekken beginner, I'm glad to have found this, despite me lacking in the technical terms which I'm not familiar with, it's pretty simple to follow...
your content is unmatched ! so much info packed into 2min and 3 min vids - insane ! Thank you so much for making all of these vids !

These guides are really good, especially the "what can you follow up with safely" part, as i don"t have the time to learn the moves AND their frames, thanks !
Dude thank you so much. This is so amazingly helpful. Stances are a new style for me but man I love Reina and her style. This is and the other guides you've made are teaching me so much!
I wanna learn how to use Reina and these videos have been helpful to understand what to do and how to use her. I like the style of your tutorials, awesome videos 🙌
I have never committed to a fighting game before and have finally decided after so long to commit to tekken 8 so this helps immensly since i have never even played a mishima before. Course i picked the one who can be the most technical >.> Edit: I am having a horrible time also getting electrics to come out
Been climbing with her, but I've been avoiding HW stance outside of combo enders because I just don't get it. She has so many good options into it, need to incorporate this into my playstyle. Love this video!
@@MishimaComplex You are very welcome. 🤠 It's awesome and very helpful that you show the buttons during your talk, so I can see about which order of button touches I have to use. I appreciate your work, too! Have a blessed and beautiful day, brother. 💙
Thank you for this. I thought Reina wasn't as good because only Sentai stance was usable. I didn't now you could transition into HW with ws4,4 Hellsweep and wr4.
Only 2 things you missed that uf 1 on ch guarantees HW 1,4 or HW 1 into sental 3. Both options deal 41 dmg. Also ch HW 1 into Sentai 1+2 guarantees her political storm on hit for 62 dmg
I did not understand what While Standing (WS) mean till today man. I keep trying to do F44 to Heaven's Wrath but Reina never did it no matter how many time I did it. I thought I either suck it it was patch out or something lol. Then I realize that WS means the transition state between crouching and standing where you have other set of moves. This is my 1st Tekken 8 game. This game is so hard yet so fun! Thanks for the vid
Heaven's Wrath can be cancled into your wavedash. Against opponemts content to take the low you can create a vortex using hellsweep. Which leaves you back in Heaven's Wrath with frame advantage.
I didn't see it mentioned but the at the wall heavens wrath throw deals 15 additional damage (35) becuase she throws them into the wall. This makes it a legit threatening mixup.
0:14 If you hold down while doing the hunting hawk, you are +8 on block and also you will return to Heaven's Wrath stance again. With the advantage, I think the 4 2 2 1+2 follow up should be uninterruptible like said in 3:05, right?
If Reina's heat smash doesn't hit clean and go into the cinematic, she will finish in Heaven's Wrath, and plus on block. I haven't proved this in training mode but I'm pretty sure that if they block the sequence you get a 50/50 mix between the unbreakable grab and HW 2's mid hit.
Thanks for your help with learning Reina. I have been tearing it up on ranked. I do have a question. Albeit a silly one. For some reason, I'm having trouble getting into her HW stance after WR4. Both in neutral and when I'm heat dashing. Even when I hold down immediately after fff4, HW is inconsistent. I know it sounds stupid, but I'm wondering what I'm missing. Thanks in advance
Doesn’t sound stupid at all! A lot of things in Tekken aren’t 100% intuitive but once it clicks then it all makes sense, if that makes sense 😂. Not exactly sure how you’re inputting it now, but don’t think of it as FFF3 then hold down, think of it as FFF3 and as soon as the animation starts hold down. As long as you start holding down while you’re in the kicking animation it should work. Let me know how you go!
I get it 90% of time by just doing the motion very fast while hitting 2 at the same time. Also, in Heat mode all Wind God Fists are Electric so you can be as sloppy as you want.
Second what @laerei said, once you have the general motion down try doing it a little quicker so you have less frames to miss the input. You’ll get there with practice!
Its hard to explain, I do the input but then I press either df2 right before reinas arm raises up or d2 works too. But I sort of hold down 2 or the df input. All ik is you have to do df2 the second you do the input, its a very fast motion
Bro pls tell about parrying.I like reina but her parry is SO BAD like cool i read the oponent and parried and get a stance and then still get hit by his follow up.I spent 3 hours in training trying to find the best buttons to not get hit but no success.(even when you are in heat and then parry for some reason the stance doesn't work)
Yeah you don’t get anything guaranteed off of her wind step or unsoku parries, it’s more of a turn-stealing parry which is ok but obv not as good as getting a launch 🥲
From certain stances like heavens wrath, unsoku, U1+2 and D1+4, you can cancel out of the stance with DF to initiate a crouch dash (without needing F n D), if you press a button at the same frame as the DF, it will output the CD move as a just frame 👍
Was looking for how opponent can interrupt after transition to HW from 1+2 on block as I always get jabbed and even the power crush doesn’t connect. Is there anything Reina can do?
i saw anakin do F2 , 3 and transition into Heavens wrath but i can not find that move in the list. do you know the command for it? after doing f2, 3 i tried holding it up, down, nothing worked.
Just a quick question since I'm confused. In regards to this stance which of these options beat grabs? I might just be using this at the wrong time, but every time i go into this stance, grab feels like it beats all the mixup game from it. So I'm just wanting to make sure is this an issue where I'm doing it wrong times where I'm negative, or if I'm missing something here?
It all depends on the frames, if the grab comes out faster than your attack you will be grabbed, but for example 112 on hit into sentai 3 will beat every grab 👍
I'm having some major trouble cancelling Heaven's Wrath into an EWGF (Heaven's Wrath d/f to enter Wind God Step). Is it not possible or is the timing different?
It’s not possible unfortunately, unless you’re in heat. When transitioning to crouch dash from heavens wrath, you don’t get the electric effect under your feet which basically means EWGF and electric CD3 can’t be done. When cancelling into crouch dash from unsoku or her up1+2/D1+4 you get the electric particles so it’s possible there 👍
In Heat Mode, Heaven's Wrath also acts as a high/mid parry with massive parry window. If the opponents hits you during the duration of the stance, she automatically performs a throw on them that puts them into juggle state on the ground.

I think you only miss the Parrie from Heaven's Wrath while Heat is on. But very very nice guide
Question: why is this guide so fire?🔥
HW 3,4 can actually transition to HW again just have to hold down it also becomes +8 on block instead of +6
Now i need a guide to combat it
"hunting hawk is +6 on block"
So you could do HW 1 into Sentai 1+2 into HW and repeat for some mean pressure till enemy finds crouch button
can we have a wave dash tutorial :D ?
So all options from hw are step-able to right except for that homing high?
Good stuff. After they made Jin a Fisher-Price character with Tekken 8, Reina was a welcome option. But it is almost too much to learn.
thanks a lot
Is while standing the same thing as while rising?
Is going back into another Hellsweep after transitioning to HW a viable strategy or is it too slow when you do it like this?
How do you do the move in heavens wrath where she does the jump kick but instead of kicking the straight she slams her foot down
Thanks for your help with learning Reina. I have been tearing it up on ranked.

many similarities with jin's zen stance,..., I will use ur video as a reference to start learning reina.

The throw deals extra damage at the wall
I noticed that too from watching a replay
As a controller player why does A/X count as 3 instead of 1?
I guess to accomodate all controllers they made the standard Tekken notation as:
1 - left punch
2 - right punch
3 - left kick
4 - right kick
