While this video is still mostly relevant, there have been some important changes to Steve since Season 1. These are covered in: Steve Season 2 Changes: th-cam.com/video/7aUuoXLwwus/w-d-xo.html Steve Fox and The Duck Time Blues: th-cam.com/video/_Pmm8HXQYbE/w-d-xo.html Tekken 7 Season 4 New Moves: th-cam.com/video/YxqLjn6CGxo/w-d-xo.html Tekken 7 v4.10 Patch: th-cam.com/video/6oK-1fbfQBk/w-d-xo.html
Thank you so much for this as I am a new player who hasn't played a single Tekken game. I saw Steve fox and wanted to play him this greatly helps just need to learn more combos with him
1:27:35 does this still work after the update or is there a trick? the opponent seems to fly away farther away after df121~b than in this video when I do it, so I can't land DCK 1 after the df121~b.
@@PaschanTOPs funny thing i just started this and wasn't really enjoying too much was close to just dropping the game then i found this character i find him very fun and im still playing tekken because of this character the losing wasn't what frustrated me i just wasn't having fun he changed that pretty quick lol
The character concept of Steve Fox was so well executed. You really get the feel of Boxing as as a combat discipline (James Shiba) and there's no shortage of references to expand on. Maybe in Tekken 8 he'll have Lomachenko shuffles haha. Beautiful video Blasted Salami. I stopped playing video games after the PSP/PS2 era but I really appreciate watching your videos. Keep it up!
Add in the frog punch the vision blocking maneuvers. Pacqiaos small aggresive hits, Mayweathers -escape- footwork. Heck even Sugar Ray's infamous close weaves and taunts.
Amazing, I literally had a pencil and paper taking notes, one of the most high quality character guides I've ever seen. I'm gonna watch this over and over lol.
A year late, but I'm watching this video and finding my love for playing Steve enhanced so, so much more by watching and rewatching this incredible guide. I love the touches with editing all the way through, from the quacks after "duck", the canned laughter on whiffing launchers and slow-motion scene/costume changes into stage transitions, slowly picking up to real time to close out the guide. Such great work. Thank you!
@@Wafflesquirrels 2months in. some character are hard to play once you went deep into their arsenal. But this game is fun, i love the feeling when i finally manage to do something effortlessly(ie. duck cancel, kdb…) after spending hours on it in practice/offline match
Can't wait to watch this. i know without even starting that it will be fantastic. When i make another character guide i'll strive to make it as good as your essentials series always come out. (i have finally got over you guys posting an even better Bryan guide than mine that i was really proud of within a week of me putting mine out there LOL)
I’ve been playing Tekken since T3, yet it isn’t until now that someone has managed to make such a comprehensive guide for any character. I can only hope that you have enough time to do the whole cast. Great job!
Cheers! Take a look at our Jin guide as well, that's another complete breakdown. We will cover the whole cast eventually, but most will be in the shorter "Essentials" format where we focus on the most important moves.
i just recently discovered your breakdown after 3000 matches with steve. after studying this i went up in rank from vanguard to vanquisher. thank you very much.
Hey everyone ! We hope you will enjoy / have enjoyed, this nearly 2 HOURS !! Steve Breakdown, as it took us a loooot of time to make, as you can guess (so yeah Lee episode was "easy" in comparaison) I hope as always my editing was on point for you, and my god damn DCK cancels too ! ^^ But I esspecially hope you've enjoyed the post credit trailer, and that you are excited for what comes next :) (Even though I know that most people will be disapointed :( ) As it will be a video made with all my hearth, soul, and love for that Character
I just want to say that this is the GREATEST breakdown that I've ever seen and not just in fighting games. The information and critical analysis is amazing and you even dropped a link for us to read all of the information and i love the editing of the video. Thank you for making the perfect informal video
Hey man if it wasn’t for this guide I probably wouldn’t play Tekken as much as I do let alone Steven! Thank you for this concise content and packing so much info in a (relatively) small package!
That Blasted Salami, this guide is what convinced me to buy Tekken 7, just to practice this character. You broke down how to use this character in such a fantastic way that it made sense to a non-fighting game newbie, and i'm able to keep up with novices with hundreds of hours on fight one. Sure i'm making mistakes, but drilling the mentality of "force them to whiff and then punish it" is enough to get me going
Just wanted to say at the situational moves, at certain angles at the wall you can follow up d/b+3,2 with a d+1+2 and get a wall splat off it for a guaranteed d/f+1+2 for mini wall combo
Also (same person as above here) after ext dck1 and flk b+2 you can get in an iWR 2 if your execution is good, on the punch parry too you can get a fF+2 but thats a just frame input and quite hard to pull off, but flips them around leaving them face down head towards you on the ground for better oki Also thanks for the vid really helpful!
i startet steve two days ago this guide helps me soo much thx dude btw cause of time issues in rl i watch this video day for day in parts and write down everything i like on a word document :D
So started tekken a while ago after getting bored of sfv and picked akuma, he was weak so i picked steve and i dont regret it, i get so many more wins and this guide just helps more
ONE. HOUR. AND. FIFTY. SEVEN. MINUTES. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Thank you. Thank you so much. My saturday is saved! Also one thing about weave into sway: You can hide the sway throw by doing weave > Sway > Sway throw. This effectively hides the entire sway animation, making the sway throw really hard to see at the wall. Abuse the shit out of this before it gets patched out.
I would rather have 2 hours of solid content like this. Rather than watching 6 hours of Aris and Rip screwing around with Twitch donations, dropped combos, failed punishes and all manner of random thoughts/stories. This gets right to the point. Thank you Salami.
you are what Tekken 7 needs. such comprehensiveness on most charachters. i'm a jin main but this steve fox breakdown even on my lower level fights has done wonders for my game play. THANK YOU @That Blasted Salami.
the combo at 1:25:14 do the extended duck a little longer, you dont have to rush it, you ve got to get close so the enemy flies higher, after that it will be easier to get the micro dash df+12 Edit: 1:27:25 this combo will make the life harder for some of you.i ve some tipps which helped me to do this consistently. -after the first df+1, 2,1 you wont be able to go into flicker consistently unless you press back a little longer. - after you do the DCK forward +2,1 try buffering and holding the dck cancel and watch it happen, as soon as you see it happen (if you duck canceled sucessfully, it looks like crouching obv) make a huge forward forward to come as close as possible and then do df1,2,1, back, DCK+1. It helped me a lot to watch the dck cancel happen since you can dash forward sooner which results in having a bit more time for the ending Edit 2: PAB+1,1,2,1 without the B to go into the FLk is another "resplat option" so basically you can bb>LVW+1,1 > wallcombo (but its -10 without the B)
not as long as possible.just extend it a bit to get a litle close, if you do it tooo much it wont work. Try watching the enemy, the closer you get with the extended duck the higher the enemy flies and get a feeling with the timing. AS soon as you are close enough dont wait
and and those who STRUGGLE with GATLING GUN on pad. bind 1+4 to LT and 2+3 to RT ingame and mash theese shoulder buttons instead of 1 and 2 . It will ignore 3 and 4 and do the gatling gun combo.
1:39:23 you can also use iPAB 1, 2 (instant Peekaboo) as a -13 punisher it does three points less damage than b1, 2 but leaves Steve at +8~+9 AND in Peekabo To perform an iPAB you just have to think of PAB and the move you want to do as one move instead of two. So for iPAB 1, 2 instead of doing F+3+4 into PAB and then doing 1,2 separately the input would be F+1+3+4, 2 the timing for the punish is pretty tough though as the first 1 gets "eaten" if youre to fast The rule of thumb for determining the speed your move comes out is: *Your PAB moves frames + 1* so iPAB is 13 frames fast instead of 12 (just my observation if anyone can correct me please do) 1:40:43 again you can use iPAB u/f,2 as a -18 punish by doing f,uf+2+3+4 basically doing a quarter circle motion but starting from forward and then going up that means you can punish moves where b2 would whiff like eddys df3+4! I did not watch the video till the end so i dont know if he adresses this stuff so i leave it here just in case PS: This also applies to Flicker!
This is a thing of beauty. I knew most of this but still watched it because you did it so damn well and everything is explained fantastically. You're speaking is exceptional as well. No stutters at all, and clear as day.
27 minutes in, and the Punch Out Wii music is still going strong. I’ve never even played Tekken before, but after learning about Steve, I just had to know more. One look at my profile pic shows why. If I ever to play Tekken, I’m absolutely maining Steve though, he seems hype as hell here.
In Boxing, what you refered to as the sway throw (when he swiftly grabs his opponent and swings them in the oppossite direction) it's called the Waltz.
This is magical. The Morning Bread and Butter tutorial for Steve was good and it’s been my go-to thus far but a more updated and in-depth look at his tools is truly welcome.
These are some high quality videos man. Your Jin Breakdown is what allowed me to become a pretty good Jin player. And now seeing this makes me want to pick up Steve. You know what, I'll do just that. Thanks for the awesome guide.
Holy shit dude. I was looking for a good Steve video and couldn't find anything. Then I found the best Tekken character video ever made. Literally all the detail you need to actually learn the character. Huge thanks!
Amazing Video as usual!! Some notes from me: 24:51 Not really true. Yes, this is useless against 50/50 characters yet you can take the advantages of weave to sway as a bait then counter any high attacks with 2 while swaying, especially in mid-range. I am having fun toying with Law and Hwoarang's kicks using weave to sway **You can stay swaying-ducking-weaving as long as you want. Peekaboo stance is the most offensive counter move, if you've mastered it, it's an overkill stance and easy win for you. It's better to use it at mid-range (just use the 1and 2 combo, parry or use the launchers) and to use at long-range. 32:03 This push (PAB,f+3+4) also works great with shoryuken/dreadnought uppercut (uf+2) as launcher IF you quickly press the button after the push considering you've got plus frame while opponent in minus. 36:29 f+2 should be applied as comeback attack whenever your HP is slightly lower than opponent (also works for big comeback). It would be better as long-range counter attack (considering its range is longer than feet) .You can just wait or approach slowly in PAB stance and whenever the opponent makes any whiff move, press the button immediately 38:24 b+2 should be applied as bait counter on long range and pair it with f+2 for big comeback. Whenever at long-range, you can attack/counter with f+2. Then whenever the opponent try to punish it just use b+2 as counter. And when you get a chance while approaching 'em just launch using Shoryuken (PKB,uf+2) or Cutting Elbow (PKB,df+2) Albatross spin also can be used to get close to the opponent. Though I suggest to directly attack rather than just spinning. If you're too far then spin and to pkb stance is best option. 01:10:40 This also can be used for okizeme or combo ender Best starter move (attack first so you get more confident in game): 1,1,2 OR df+1+2(sonic fang) OR df+2(crescent hook) OR db+1+2 OR db+2 Mastering Steve's combos takes time, so keep practicing! Oh yeah, if you play Steve like a coward you will lose shamefully
Yes, and also launchable. That's why some of pro players didn't really use it. It's best to use in mid range, to punish opponent's attack or as a part of combo.
it's punishable yeah but i think it might have pushback thus not punishable by jab. It is minus twelve on block and thus not launchable. I thought it was more risky. @@callmeken2327 f+1+2, 2 doesn't cover a lot of space making it not the best whiff punish tool, however if you are in range it is fast and does good damage. Good movement can make up for i's range. PAB f+2, 1 and d/f+1+2 cover more distance so they are more likely to be used as whiff punishment,
This will no doubt be my all time favorite breakdown thanks to your hardwork my counter hit,evasive movement and rushdown has improved greatly and i can definitely see it without a doubt
23:35 "if you sense that your opponent is going to press buttons-" I love that if you play Tekken you completely get what he means but it still sounds ridiculous when you put it into words😂
I watched half of it before my morning class, you can’t imagine how happy and excited I was to finish and continuo watching the rest! THANK YOU SO MUCH
Glad you like it. Please check out our other videos on Steve (Season 2 changes, Duck Time Blues, and v4.10 update) to keep up to date on how he's changed since.
Even though some things mentioned in this video changed, as a new player, i learned so much from this video and it showed me things i didn't even consider. Sick video!
FINALLY! I now can start to play competively thanks to this vid. I just had to master either Steve or Hworang as for me nothing comes close to them :D Edit:The professionalism is outstanding mate. I feel like this is an official Bamco channel fot the game. No wonder I won't dread to watch 2 hours.
wow, I am genuinely surprised as to how Steve just makes everything safe by canceling into stances. Not only can you poke safely, but you can also apply a mix-up on a block in a lot of situations. Very boxing indeed, it's not only about your turn and my turn. Its how I apply pressure through understanding your opponents. Excellent guide
Fantastic guide. It's easy to follow, has a professional feel to it and feels pleasant to listen to. Easily the best guide of Steve Fox out there. Amazingly well done.
This looks really, really good. I dedicated most of last year learning Steve and I can't express how fucking fun he is to play as. Looking forward to dig into this.
I was trying to learn Steve yesterday and I gave up... But seeing this makes me wanna practixe him again. Thank you so much for the in depth tutorial. This is a tutorial that eill help everyone.
Jesus, this is... oh my God, this is so good. I've been trying to learn Steve for the last few weeks but there's been no solid guides for how to play him in the neutral. This is everything and more than I could have asked for. Thank you so much.
I was wondering why you hadn't uploaded anything in a month, and honestly I'm surprised you finished a guide with this much detail in that time. Hopefully I'll get round to watching this again and learning Steve soon, though considering I'm still working through your Lee guide that probably won't be anytime in the near future ahaha, keep up the good work man!

Steve Fox: The character alone makes Tekken 7, one of the best and most complex BOXING games around!
He has always been my main, and Raven is my secondary, but watching this video just makes me want to play tekken as steve for days
steve boxing is even superior to ufc 4 boxing
Steve Fox is the reason I play Tekken since 2002.

Heck even Sugar Ray's infamous close weaves and taunts.
I'd give him Floyd's pull counter and Pacquiao's multi angle punches next
Why did you stop playing video games?
Showed this to my friend he became so good at Steve I have to watch this video to see damage I have done to myself.
Amazing, I literally had a pencil and paper taking notes, one of the most high quality character guides I've ever seen. I'm gonna watch this over and over lol.
This video is so good that ... I DON'T EVEN PLAY TEKKEN AND I WATCHED ALMOST ALL OF IT
Feels bad man
This chanel screams quality
Chanel isn’t quality, that shit is overpriced.
"Steve gives his opponents just enough ropes, to hang themselves" LMAO
its honestly a superb analogy playing against a good steve he has so many moves that will catch you slippin

I have to admit, I think this is the best and most carefully edited Steve tutorial I've seen. Very very nice work here.
You don't get enough credit for these incredibly thorough breakdowns
I often come back to this vid just for the intro. So sick. Really well done, Salami.
This is the best guide I have ever seen in my life. You have yourself a new follower.
i startet steve two days ago this guide helps me soo much thx dude btw cause of time issues in rl i watch this video day for day in parts and write down everything i like on a word document :D
Keep practicing, man!
I've been playing Steve since T5 and for anyone considering playing him this video is spot on. I watched it three times already.
Feel like I’m back in school learn and taking notes.
I felt like I've been watching this forever and it's only been 14 minutes. As a steve main, I'll watch as long as it takes to get better
So started tekken a while ago after getting bored of sfv and picked akuma, he was weak so i picked steve and i dont regret it, i get so many more wins and this guide just helps more
ONE. HOUR. AND. FIFTY. SEVEN. MINUTES.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
Thank you. Thank you so much. My saturday is saved!
Also one thing about weave into sway:
You can hide the sway throw by doing weave > Sway > Sway throw. This effectively hides the entire sway animation, making the sway throw really hard to see at the wall. Abuse the shit out of this before it gets patched out.
SolidPootis ikr was not expecting this at all
Hope you enjoyed it!
I always thought weave to sway was useless, but guess I was wrong! Thanks for the advice :)
I would rather have 2 hours of solid content like this. Rather than watching 6 hours of Aris and Rip screwing around with Twitch donations, dropped combos, failed punishes and all manner of random thoughts/stories. This gets right to the point. Thank you Salami.
.
the only thing i use is forward dash+2
you are what Tekken 7 needs. such comprehensiveness on most charachters. i'm a jin main but this steve fox breakdown even on my lower level fights has done wonders for my game play. THANK YOU @That Blasted Salami.
the combo at 1:25:14 do the extended duck a little longer, you dont have to rush it, you ve got to get close so the enemy flies higher, after that it will be easier to get the micro dash df+12
Edit: 1:27:25 this combo will make the life harder for some of you.i ve some tipps which helped me to do this consistently.
-after the first df+1, 2,1 you wont be able to go into flicker consistently unless you press back a little longer.
- after you do the DCK forward +2,1 try buffering and holding the dck cancel and watch it happen, as soon as you see it happen (if you duck canceled sucessfully, it looks like crouching obv) make a huge forward forward to come as close as possible and then do df1,2,1, back, DCK+1. It helped me a lot to watch the dck cancel happen since you can dash forward sooner which results in having a bit more time for the ending
Edit 2: PAB+1,1,2,1 without the B to go into the FLk is another "resplat option" so basically you can bb>LVW+1,1 > wallcombo (but its -10 without the B)
Great advice!
not as long as possible.just extend it a bit to get a litle close, if you do it tooo much it wont work. Try watching the enemy, the closer you get with the extended duck the higher the enemy flies and get a feeling with the timing. AS soon as you are close enough dont wait
and and those who STRUGGLE with GATLING GUN on pad. bind 1+4 to LT and 2+3 to RT ingame and mash theese shoulder buttons instead of 1 and 2 . It will ignore 3 and 4 and do the gatling gun combo.
1:39:23 you can also use iPAB 1, 2 (instant Peekaboo) as a -13 punisher it does three points less damage than b1, 2 but leaves Steve at +8~+9 AND in Peekabo
To perform an iPAB you just have to think of PAB and the move you want to do as one move instead of two.
So for iPAB 1, 2 instead of doing F+3+4 into PAB and then doing 1,2 separately the input would be F+1+3+4, 2 the timing for the punish is pretty tough though as the first 1 gets "eaten" if youre to fast
The rule of thumb for determining the speed your move comes out is: *Your PAB moves frames + 1* so iPAB is 13 frames fast instead of 12 (just my observation if anyone can correct me please do)
1:40:43 again you can use iPAB u/f,2 as a -18 punish by doing f,uf+2+3+4 basically doing a quarter circle motion but starting from forward and then going up that means you can punish moves where b2 would whiff like eddys df3+4!
I did not watch the video till the end so i dont know if he adresses this stuff so i leave it here just in case
PS: This also applies to Flicker!
Abdel whoa, thnx alot to you. I didnt knows about ipab 1,2.
When I saw the time, I accidentally shouted "OH MY GOD."
I don't even play Tekken but THIS is what I call quality content.
You are a gem for the Tekken community and the FGC in general, cheers.
A two hour breakdown! Wow. Your quality is amazing! So glad I subbed
This is a thing of beauty. I knew most of this but still watched it because you did it so damn well and everything is explained fantastically. You're speaking is exceptional as well. No stutters at all, and clear as day.
Thanks for the kind words!
I WAS JUST WONDERING WHEN YOU WERE GOING TO UPLOAD IT 😄😄😀
Indeed as other people said: Haven't watched half of it and it almost surely is the best Steve guide
KING OF TEKKEN CONTENT!
27 minutes in, and the Punch Out Wii music is still going strong.
I’ve never even played Tekken before, but after learning about Steve, I just had to know more. One look at my profile pic shows why.
If I ever to play Tekken, I’m absolutely maining Steve though, he seems hype as hell here.
In Boxing, what you refered to as the sway throw (when he swiftly grabs his opponent and swings them in the oppossite direction) it's called the Waltz.
It's just called "Position Switch" in his ml.
Just a tip - don't use the same character for both players so we know which one to watch at what point..
Steve so complex I dont know where to start even watching this video
Start with basics, understand the difference stances, B+1 is your staple
This is magical. The Morning Bread and Butter tutorial for Steve was good and it’s been my go-to thus far but a more updated and in-depth look at his tools is truly welcome.
These are some high quality videos man.
Your Jin Breakdown is what allowed me to become a pretty good Jin player. And now seeing this makes me want to pick up Steve.
You know what, I'll do just that. Thanks for the awesome guide.
Holy shit dude. I was looking for a good Steve video and couldn't find anything. Then I found the best Tekken character video ever made. Literally all the detail you need to actually learn the character. Huge thanks!
Blasted salami is the people’s champion
Amazingly complete and comprehensive tutorial, even for seasoned Steve players.
Congrats as always.
Amazing Video as usual!!
Some notes from me:
24:51 Not really true. Yes, this is useless against 50/50 characters yet you can take the advantages of weave to sway as a bait then counter any high attacks with 2 while swaying, especially in mid-range. I am having fun toying with Law and Hwoarang's kicks using weave to sway
**You can stay swaying-ducking-weaving as long as you want.
Peekaboo stance is the most offensive counter move, if you've mastered it, it's an overkill stance and easy win for you. It's better to use it at mid-range (just use the 1and 2 combo, parry or use the launchers) and to use at long-range.
32:03 This push (PAB,f+3+4) also works great with shoryuken/dreadnought uppercut (uf+2) as launcher IF you quickly press the button after the push considering you've got plus frame while opponent in minus.
36:29 f+2 should be applied as comeback attack whenever your HP is slightly lower than opponent (also works for big comeback). It would be better as long-range counter attack (considering its range is longer than feet) .You can just wait or approach slowly in PAB stance and whenever the opponent makes any whiff move, press the button immediately
38:24 b+2 should be applied as bait counter on long range and pair it with f+2 for big comeback. Whenever at long-range, you can attack/counter with f+2. Then whenever the opponent try to punish it just use b+2 as counter.
And when you get a chance while approaching 'em just launch using Shoryuken (PKB,uf+2) or Cutting Elbow (PKB,df+2)
Albatross spin also can be used to get close to the opponent. Though I suggest to directly attack rather than just spinning. If you're too far then spin and to pkb stance is best option.
01:10:40 This also can be used for okizeme or combo ender
Best starter move (attack first so you get more confident in game): 1,1,2 OR df+1+2(sonic fang) OR df+2(crescent hook) OR db+1+2 OR db+2
Mastering Steve's combos takes time, so keep practicing!
Oh yeah, if you play Steve like a coward you will lose shamefully
Chevy Chelios Sonic Fang is jab punishable on block right?
Yes, and also launchable. That's why some of pro players didn't really use it. It's best to use in mid range, to punish opponent's attack or as a part of combo.
Chevy Chelios is Steve's f+1+2, 2 a guaranteed whiff punishing tool?
it's punishable yeah but i think it might have pushback thus not punishable by jab. It is minus twelve on block and thus not launchable. I thought it was more risky.
@@callmeken2327 f+1+2, 2 doesn't cover a lot of space making it not the best whiff punish tool, however if you are in range it is fast and does good damage. Good movement can make up for i's range. PAB f+2, 1 and d/f+1+2 cover more distance so they are more likely to be used as whiff punishment,
This will no doubt be my all time favorite breakdown thanks to your hardwork my counter hit,evasive movement and rushdown has improved greatly and i can definitely see it without a doubt
MADNESS!
Haha t'es partout! Ouais, c'est top!
hahah je vais apprendre a jouer steve,aussi
Bon courage les gars ! un plaisir de pouvoir vous aider !
23:35 "if you sense that your opponent is going to press buttons-" I love that if you play Tekken you completely get what he means but it still sounds ridiculous when you put it into words😂
Man,words cannot describe the amazing quality of your videos.
keep it up
He can also do many normal stance moves out of flicker which can make flicker more versatile.Best guide on Steve fox though. Good luck.
So much work was put into this and it shows. Very nice work man.
I watched half of it before my morning class, you can’t imagine how happy and excited I was to finish and continuo watching the rest! THANK YOU SO MUCH
Damn, worth the wait.
I'm a new Steve main and this is easily the best guide I have seen
Glad you like it. Please check out our other videos on Steve (Season 2 changes, Duck Time Blues, and v4.10 update) to keep up to date on how he's changed since.
Hajime no Ippo and this breakdown will definitely motivate me to continue using Steve. Thanks a plenty!
Even though some things mentioned in this video changed, as a new player, i learned so much from this video and it showed me things i didn't even consider. Sick video!
This is the best video ever on Steve Fox. Thank you
"Ask and ye shall receive" and indeed we have!!! Thank you for your time and effort dude its much appreciated
FINALLY!
I now can start to play competively thanks to this vid.
I just had to master either Steve or Hworang as for me nothing comes close to them :D
Edit:The professionalism is outstanding mate. I feel like this is an official Bamco channel fot the game. No wonder I won't dread to watch 2 hours.
Also also, after Steve's parry, if the 1 hit as a CH you can get a full combo
Best steve guide, keep making vids like this.
wow, I am genuinely surprised as to how Steve just makes everything safe by canceling into stances. Not only can you poke safely, but you can also apply a mix-up on a block in a lot of situations. Very boxing indeed, it's not only about your turn and my turn. Its how I apply pressure through understanding your opponents. Excellent guide
Missed you so much Blasted Salami!!!
Fantastic guide. It's easy to follow, has a professional feel to it and feels pleasant to listen to. Easily the best guide of Steve Fox out there. Amazingly well done.
Dang, I love this channel so much.
Love you senpai
This looks really, really good. I dedicated most of last year learning Steve and I can't express how fucking fun he is to play as. Looking forward to dig into this.
2hours, this seems legit.. great job as usual ❤️
Rewatching in 2023 RIP Df2 easy combo and PKB df1 2 knockdown
Tekken 7's probably the best fighting game ever made. It has Science!
And Physics!
I guess?
Nope its Smash Bros
Second it's, Marvel vs Capcom than Def Jam fight for NY.
I watched a few of your guides now and this feels the most comprehensive and thought out.
A 2 hour long vid 30 minutes before I have to go into work. You did that on purpose, didn't you?
Yes :)
I was trying to learn Steve yesterday and I gave up... But seeing this makes me wanna practixe him again. Thank you so much for the in depth tutorial. This is a tutorial that eill help everyone.
I loved Steve Fox from Tekken 4 because of his boxing, speed and offensive focused gameplay.
Jesus, this is... oh my God, this is so good. I've been trying to learn Steve for the last few weeks but there's been no solid guides for how to play him in the neutral. This is everything and more than I could have asked for. Thank you so much.
Nice.
I was wondering why you hadn't uploaded anything in a month, and honestly I'm surprised you finished a guide with this much detail in that time. Hopefully I'll get round to watching this again and learning Steve soon, though considering I'm still working through your Lee guide that probably won't be anytime in the near future ahaha, keep up the good work man!
Finally. Thanks salami :D.
Thank you so much! Saves me the time of asking the discord ten thousand questions! Now I only need to ask five thousand!
FINALLY!!! Thank you so much. 😄😄😄
This guide took me from causal level to Dan 22. Thank u good sir
I still have alot of work to do but you raised my floor ALOT
