I don’t care how late it is. I don’t care how many people have already done it. I need a Tekken 8 video from you! Tutorials, character guides, anti character guides and etc, regardless I need it man😭 the content you push is truly valuable and underrated
An incredible start up guide for someone like me needing to find a new main for T8. Really hope you return to make content for the launch of T8 as you’ve easily got some of the best guides out there!! The way you break things down and production of the video is rare in the Tekken content creator space.
Never been this early for a beginner's guide - and for a character I'm interested in! Been playing Tekken for about a year, might switch away from Kazumi soon. Thanks, Peter!
Just committed myself to Tekken yesterday. I initially started off with Akuma (mistake) but after 7 hours of labbing and getting my ass beat I decided it might be best to give someone else a shot. With weary eyes I went with dragunov, where I manage to pull of a couple sick sample combos before collapsing. the pure coincidence that this guide pops up in my feed the next day means its a sign.
You are super good at explaining things. Some of your tutorials on movement and punishment changed the way I look at the entire game and I've been playing since tekken 5. Please keep doing videos, they are good enough to be included in the game.
I've just recently found your channel. Love the constructiveness and engagement of your videos, sir. Thank you so much for the guide, and please don't stop being awesome!
Hey, just wanted to thank you for all your work into these guides. I know it's been about a solid year since you've posted last but just wanted to say that you've helped me out.
I just picked up Tekken. Its my first fighting game ever. I picked Dragunov because he looked super cool and after this video I think he is even cooler. Thank you so much for this awesome guide, you were a great teacher! I will use this knowledge well! 😊
Drag main here. This is great advice for beginners! Wanted to add something though if I may. After the segment of wall punishes doing 9:00 if you’re far from the wall side step to an angle and if they go low you can ws 1,3 to wall bounce then you can wall carry further or to another wall for maximum damage, if there’s a wall break even and you’re in rage, could 80+ damage all from a low punish. I forget frames, but I know the animations for which work. But if you’re very close and you ws1,2 when they walk splat the opponents animation is VERY slow, you can side walk almost behind them and do almost a 180 full combo from the wall splat if you jab before they fall. All of this with his crouch cancels of course, you could also get wall depending on which level you’re on. I love this character. He’s so fun. Thanks for making this video! Love seeing support for my character 🥰🥰🥰
You are 100% correct on the sidestep into wall break / wall bounce. Walls in this game are ridiculous when it comes to damage and you can bounce from almost any angle now a days. It used to be you had to be straight on to get a bounce, but now, any angle will do lululululul.
@@PeterYMao since my friend is a dragunov main and has his challenges in using him, i figured i'd share this to him And since i learned a lot from your videos. Its always good to go back to a characters foundations.
Good stuff. The only thing I think should also be mentioned is his tackle game. Sure it not something super important but is definitely way better than most characters.
Hey Peter! There is something you should have mentioned when you were talking about his rage drive. Dragunov can also cancel into a blue spark version of his tackle if it gets blocked and what I love the most about that is that it is actually inescapable. If Dragunov does blue spark tackle after rage drive and it hits you, you cannot break out of it. And what I love the most about it is that even if you overcommit to the tackle and it misses because you launched the opponent, you will actually recover from the tackle just in time to continue the combo. After learning about the blue spark tackle and its great utility, I think Dragunov might have one of the best rage drives in the game.
Dragunov's Rage drive is definitely good. I had forgotten to add the blue sparks in the script so by the time I had finished recording, editing the video it was too late. OOOOOps.
@@MrChickenboss Nope. Trust me. I have tried it, and I have seen replays where people try it, guess right, and still get hit. It's practically an unblockable if you think about. Now of course, it's not 100% unavoidable. You can jump over it, mash on it, or even rage art. So it's not OP either, but of course, if I know you are going to try something, I can just do the rage drive itself and not go for the tackle and instead jusy go for a frame trap. This is what I mean when I say that Dragunov's rage drive has pretty good utility and versatility. You can use it however you want and still get good results.
This is great! Drag is a character I've labbed once or twice, so this will definitely help. Gotta say, that instant WR2 is a bit harder than I thought it would be.
Great guide. Been playing Hwoarang and Eddy since s1 but I've stagnated and was looking for a more fundamental character to learn the game with, this made my choice much easier
Hey Peter, I'm a new player (keyword for: i have 950 hours in Tekken 7 lmao) and when I found your channel recently, I instantly subscribed. I really hope you get back into Tekken 8 and uploading videos when it comes out. Your videos are some of the best videos out there for new players or players coming from a 2D fighter background, and they're really, really valuable. I can't tell you how happy and at home they make an old head like me feel. If I saw you uploading again for Tekken 8, it'd make me so happy But even if you don't, I just hope you're doing good and you're happy, and that you know you're still helping people new to Tekken a whole lot. Cheers
Hi PYM ! you've time enough to learn WR2 Subscribed since .... many month but still appreciating your brilliant channel short, smiling and instructive pls continue
Hey Peter thats me again ! Hope you and your family are okay. Juste wanted to know if you plan to comeback ? And what did you think about the recent T8 reveals? Take care
It's worth noting that you have to hold down back to get b2 to actually high crush like you would in a normal full crouch state. Tyler2k had a video about this bug a while back, and I believe it affects some other moves as well.
Hi Peter, your channel is excellent and I've watched just about everything on here. I always recommend you to newcomers. Having said that, would you consider organizing it into playlists? This would make it more accessible for newcomers especially to orient themselves and know where to start. Looking forward to seeing your T8 content!
Hey thanks for the video. Picking up Dragunov in Tekken 8 and thought I would come back to this video as I'm sure it will mostly still be relevant in Tekken 8. Hope you find some time to enjoy the new game as well (edit) I remember watching your Armor King video years ago and that was super helpful for learning that character
I've been labbing Dragunov for quite a bit and thought I knew most but I learned so much watching this. You've become an essential part of my labbing routines and thank you very much for making the whole process a lot easier! Cheers!
Hey Peter will be uploading guides for Tekken 8 Bryan? Youre the reason ive got a fundamentally sound Bryan and id love for you uou to uplaod videos for tekken 8.
F1+2 is a reliable punisher for Paul's death fist...however punishing Paul's demo-man is dependent on whether or not your opponent did a regular demo-man or a blue spark demo-man. F1+2 will whiff completely on the blue spark version yet punish the regular version, however the punish is very inconsistent
Great guide. I love the fact that you stress not focusing on iwr. I feel with Tekken people focus too heavy on advanced techniques other than fundamentals. I think it would have been nice to mention the rage drive tackle
I personally don't like the rage drive tackle as I've never seen JDCR use it in a competitive tournament so I can only imagine that it's not that great. Also, I'm happy to know we are both in agreement on the fact that newer players should not be focusing on WR+2 :)
I swear I've seen JDCR use it once but can't recall if it was at the we play tournament or just messing around on stream. Either way that makes sense. Not the most important tool but a unique option.

Never been this early for a beginner's guide - and for a character I'm interested in! Been playing Tekken for about a year, might switch away from Kazumi soon. Thanks, Peter!

Hey, just wanted to thank you for all your work into these guides. I know it's been about a solid year since you've posted last but just wanted to say that you've helped me out.
This is the video that first taught me how to play Tekken, thank you Peter :)
Since his introduction in Dark Ressurection, he's been my main.
Nice! You have great loyalty my friend. You have great loyalty.
i think it would be nice to notice that Dragunov's generic 2+4 grab does the sideswitch even on throwbreak, unlike his command f2+3 and f1+4 grabs.
True. Dragunov's 2+4 definitely switches sides on break / throw. I probably should have included it in the guide.
I just picked up Tekken. Its my first fighting game ever. I picked Dragunov because he looked super cool and after this video I think he is even cooler. Thank you so much for this awesome guide, you were a great teacher! I will use this knowledge well! 😊
bro why don't you post anymore, you're one of my go to person for character guides. you're explanation is chill and easy to understand
I was literally thinking, i want to learn Dragunov. And here we are, after learning Bryan from you. Now, time to learn Dragunov again
👍👍
I really miss your content. You are a great teacher.
When you coming back I need that purple rank guide just got mighty ruler and red ranks was hell need that guide
I'll keep it in mind.

One thing that I finally realized after following this channel. All characters you play, their costumes have this Black and Blue color combination.
It's the PYM custom hahahahaha
This is great! The moment i saw this, i immediately shared this to my friend. And also gave me a general idea of using him too.
🔥🤣👌

I would have never made it to tgp without you man, I hope you are enjoying life! I wish you all the best bro!
I've been maining Dragunov for a long time, but still learned a lot from your vid! Solid!
Glad you enjoyed!
nice! think I'll give Dragunov a try. Loved your Lidia guide, still watch it to refresh every now and then
👍👍Thanks for checking out my guides.
These videos are so high quality. Hopefully your love for Tekken is still there because we need those sweet sweet T8 guides
Good stuff. The only thing I think should also be mentioned is his tackle game. Sure it not something super important but is definitely way better than most characters.
Yeah, he has a tackle game, but I didn't mention it because I ran short on time, and personally I think this guide is enough to get beginners started.
Man! Please keep these coming🤍 You're the best.
Most likely going to take a break from TH-cam for a month or so. I'm kinda burnt out.
I already know this is gonna be quality. Thank you as always, Peter!

F1+2 is a reliable punisher for Paul's death fist...however punishing Paul's demo-man is dependent on whether or not your opponent did a regular demo-man or a blue spark demo-man.
