I love how Kaz's heat engages the devil form in a natural way that doesn't feel broken, since other characters have heat forms as well, but is unique to his character lore and design. Amazing stuff.
@@ScarletGensokyo11961 i mean generally heat is just about extending your combos and making some of your moves really feel impactful via more hyper armors for turning the tide in your favor
@@NYG5 can't wait to finally own tekken 8, a brokie like me is stuck watching videos, but the tekken 7 experience will carry me I think when I do. How are you guys okay with 3 electrics, no bound?

I have to say the ranks seem to have settled and now you get actual players at Shinryu and above. Players are a lot tighter on this level with better space control and awareness of spacing. I hit a wall at this point because I keep playing like it's Tekken 7 where EWGF, db2, ss3 all had good tracking, and they keep blowing up my whiffs really well.
How do I do the Kazuya heat hellsweep animation cancel thing? Where he doesn't lift them into the air + slam but still gets the third hit from heat? 8:51 for reference 👍
Insane game play 🔥🔥🔥 I’m new to Tekken and I’m learning Kazuya. People say he’s bad but I enjoy playing the character . You do the electric wind god fist like it’s nothing. I struggle to even do it twice in a row lol! And that’s in training mode 😅😂
29 years. It literally is nothing. Dude has been living and breathing Tekken longer than most of us have been alive. To say it's muscle memory is an understatement. Like to him, something impressive must be creative and hard to pull off that you don't normally see even at his skill level.
Straight up, no bullshit, hwaorang has been my favorite character since t3, but the playstyle that I've been trying to develop in every fighting I game, with street fighter being the main game I usually play. Take a rushdown or offensive character and play very passive with that character. The way you're playing kazuya here is goal levels. Kazuya has been one of those characters I've wanted to try out for a long time, and you got me contemplating here. Yes, I can try to develop my hwaorang in a similar fashion, and I know he oozes damage, but when you got a Fucker like kazyua hitting people like grown ass men, you got me thinking some things here 😅😂. Great video. The set against that victor player was good shit. Stay blessed. Edit: The fight with jin was even better 😅😂
Lots of people saying Kazuya is mid to low tier but watching you play him makes seem pretty cracked. Its what I love about Tekken honestly anything can work with enough matchup knowledge and execution
And many peoples first tekkne is this one, or maybe tekken 7. My first was tekken 3 so for long time players I'll block and launch you 100%. Most players at red and above are going to be the ones who've been with this game forever
What MainMan said about Jin's ZEN U+1 was totally hilariously wrong. He was saying 14 frame moves are fast. Sure, but ZEN u+1 isn't 14 frames long - it's 14 frames to activate. It's much much slower than 14 frames. It's easy to react to on block or whiff especially because of its obvious animation.
Have you labbed any balcony breaks? I feel like if you are in heat already and used up your bound, just going for the devil cd 1 is pretty good bc it usually catches, does good damage and still leaves you with a good chunk of heat. With bound I usually go for df 321 and end it with either the f4 steel petal tech or a wall carry move like df 1 df 2 or 4.
"this guy's like a tekken god prime" as TMM said, yeah that Garyu jin was punching way above his weight class, awesome player EDIT: Leodes92 is his name, damn good player
Found ya !! 🤪.. Show me that true Mishima Style Karate.. 💯 2:55 Damn i miss playing Tekken ranked matches.. 23:10 Facts , that took a while for me to learn.. But once you do and start to incorporate his entire skill set.. We get what were viewing right now 😂..
I find it easier against Ling here. May be cause I am better relatively to how I was in T7. Today I 2/0'd a Ling. First time in my life. xD For red ranks just try to get reads on the back stance snake edge. They be spamming that shit.
I am i ling main and im about to hit fujin if played her for over 15years i think she is weaker in t8 compared to the other characters in de game. In tekken 7 her poke game was way better. But the madeup for it with her 50/50stance
it literally is hell... ive been fighting some xiaos surprisingly coming up on the ranks. I hate the ppl that pick these lame blue moon characters just for me to forget the matchup since its been so long and get destroyed by xiao mash
True but with a game and char like Kazuya, TMM is at the top % of Kazuyas excluding pros. It's almost necessary to use his that effectively and defend vs the whole cast
Love ur content. New kazuya main here. Is it just me or is kazuya lowkey a worse version of devil jin? He has a worse hell sweep and less get in tools, and no wings. Still love him tho. Plz prove me wrong..
Kuzuya is bad in this game. You literally have to play perfect, and know alot of matchups. He has almost zero pressure tools, and relies solely on wiff punishment. I'm starting to regret making him my main.
when i started playing Tekken 8 I wondered why you don't loose any ranked points and some people said you will start loosing points when you reach warrior, but he is tenryu and isn't loosing any points. For example at 46:52
Hey main man! I was wondering if you think we will ever get tekken on a Nintendo console? Since Kazuya is in smash maybe that would open future possibilities
No way. Stop it. Nintendo Switch is terrible and the performance is god awful, see MK1. Devs need to stop wasting time on previous gen let alone Switch Ports
Why would Mainman answer this bullshit of a question. Let alone switch is garbage for this type of games. Smash looks like gold, mk1 looks like serious ass

@@kingofdrama3236➡️⭐️⬇️↘️🟡

When I play him, my no sugar coat moves are definitely f4, hellsweep and spamming electric on whiff.
An underrated T8 addition is sound effects to wavedashes
Fax, it's so satisfying to wavedash into electric or even just to flex
Sounds terrible
Wow true dude! A lot of great little details make this a great game
From his 8 minute kazuya video - “get them on the ground then it’s mishima’s game.” No kidding. The second they got grounded they lost the round.
I love how Kaz's heat engages the devil form in a natural way that doesn't feel broken, since other characters have heat forms as well, but is unique to his character lore and design. Amazing stuff.

Damn 29 years... I can't even be alive for 29 seconds 💀
When ur on demotion and run into Tmm kazuya😂
Jin mains are the only people in the world who believe Jin is bad. Nothing is ever strong enough for them it's bizarre.
As a jin main I can confirm my boy busted in this game and I love it, but he isn't the only busted character in this game bye far😂
42:46 Jin vs Kazuya even on their story stage, what a great fight, best one in the video! 🔥

Yeah yeah and Knee said Akuma was bottom tier back in T7 season 1 now let's move on
use to play so much Mishima now can't handle the control but those electrics are so satisfying to watch...
Lots of people saying Kazuya is mid to low tier but watching you play him makes seem pretty cracked. Its what I love about Tekken honestly anything can work with enough matchup knowledge and execution
At 32:35 the getback sweep for 2nd set against that Victor, ending it with the wallbreak is so good 💯👏🏿👌🏿👨🏿🍳
That Jin match made me realize how crazy Scourge and Divekick are.
Gets blocked or beat in any fashion:
He’s watching me guys, he’s sniping

when i started playing Tekken 8 I wondered why you don't loose any ranked points and some people said you will start loosing points when you reach warrior, but he is tenryu and isn't loosing any points. For example at 46:52
He skips the animation with start button. So you don't see the cinematic + numbers changing.
When you skip the win cinematic, you also skip the points moving on the bar. He does lose points, you just don't see how many.
