This guide is great dude. Would love to see another follow up video to this on his bread and butter combos…or a combo video that varies in difficulty. You are great. Thank you for what you do.
THANK YOUUUU! Geez man ive been searching Jack 8 Guides since launch day and you've finally put out the perfect one i needed. Hope you do super well in tournaments and your gaming career with this game man. I appreciate the guide!
New Tekken player here, really wanted to pick up Jack and was surprised at the lack of guides for him. This is my new holy grail, thanks for putting so much time and thought into making this! Instant sub, excited to see more of your stuff :)
I think if you did a super beginner guide for brand new tekken players that NEVER played tekken my get a lot of views. So many technical terms that you mention that only apply to tekken.
Thank you so much for taking the time to put this together. I remember seeing you hit some big results near the end of Tekken 7 and it made me really excited to play Jack again. And now one of the top Jacks in the world is giving out content of this quality for free 🥺 I fuckin love Tekken man
Very good guide buddy, although I can't agree with b44 being a decent poke/string - first one's -13 oB and there's a 10-frame gap in between, so any knowledgable person will always do i10 to either punish or interrupt. Ofc, this is a knowledge check but the animation is so distinct it won't be hard for most people. Also, worth noting is that for any move transitioning to GH on block you can do dickjab to interrupt all GH moves apart from GH 3+4 (-13 oB?) or GH uf_ub, but this doesn't lead to anything guaranteed. You can always not transition to GH oB and bait dickjab to punish it with df2 let's say, but this is a two-way guessing game and after a while people will start seeing whether you chose to go to GH or not and adjust. :) Nevertheless, good stuff!
Excellent guide. I reached orange ranks yesterday with Jack, and really want to continue with this character. Those tips will help to improve a lot. Thanks 🦾
Greetings from Finland! Started playing Jack-7 about half a year ago and the new moves to his arsenal are really good. Found myself getting a bit overwhelmed about using what/where so thank you very much for the tutorial.
Thank you for the guide, new jack player, I'm getting far in ranked but there is so many moves I'll use in my arsenal thanks to you. And thank you for telling the extra properties to some of these moves.
thank you for this, this is a great video. could you please make one about combos? best combo extenders, wall combos, best launchers on punish and whiffs, best combo enders, etc. i think alot of people would appreciate a video like that with the same amount of detail as this one about jack since he doesnt seem to be super popular online currently. thank you! side note: how do you do the blue uppercut? i cant for the life of me figure it out 😅
Surprised there's no section just covering staple combos and combo theory for Jack, would be nice to have written out notation showcasing what strings to use after what for consistent combos
Tekken 8 is my first tekken game and when I was looking at the roster 3 characters stood out Kuma and Jack this is the first Jack guide I’ve come across I have yet to see a kuma guide and yet to find a long in depth kuma guide. I ended up playing a lot of kuma but I wanna learn them both
Whats his best bnb after df2? Im tired of doing the 40 damage combo the game gives you lol! Thanks for the guide- ive managed a 65% wr over 400 games db1ing people.
You dropped the Beginner's guide, but do you think you could drop an Intermediate guide pls? Trying to learn situations optimal situations at the wall as well as Stage interactions
How do you get the Wind-up uppercut to come out so easily at 3:05? I feel like there's something I don't understand about how to input it. Do you not need the DF input after HCF?
I didn't understand the non-fallible hit-confirmation of WS+2, 4. Is there a specific moment to push the 4 that makes Jack only kick in case of confirmed hit?
What are his best panic moves when you are getting rushed down? f2 comes to mind, but it is a high. The 13f shoulder is super unsafe. Powercrush is safe, but slow.
Fine start, but please in future guides don't just "I can do this/that, or follow up yadda yadda", actually say what you're doing with proper move names/inputs to make it easier to follow along.
Bro he made an hour long guide. If you can’t take a second to look at his fucking inputs along the left of the screen you aren’t ready for this video at all
@@b4ckwoodbillyit’s a beginners guide he should realistically put the inputs on screen not just show on the left that are usually very crowded with movement or other inputs that he isn’t talking about
@POD_GOD, obviously, for players that have FG experience, it's a no-brainer, but I'm sure there's people who haven't. Somone giving constructive criticism to help improve his content isn't something to get in your feelings about
Hey great guide thanks a lot, a lot to learn from it. Was wondering does he have CH set up against jabs off his +3 from WR+1+2 / GH+4 or the +4 from f,f+3 ? seems like his best button for this is d/f+4 but thats too slow at i15. Am I overlooking something or is f+2 Jack's tool for this?
You can try F2 to counterhit from +3, but what also is a great option is his volcano buster throw (df,df2+4) and tombstone throw (db,f1+2), a lot of his grabs are 11 frames so you can frametrap and ch them with that.
the second part of the throw is unbreakable but the first part isnt. Its almost like a mini chain throw . If they dont tech the first part then the second is guaranteed
what does pressing all four of the buttons do? i am labbing an seeing him do shit, and seeing this creator use it after every stage reset in the lab but not sure what it does 🤥
@@badmana5768well it just needs to hit while someone is in the animation of a move. If a move is already about to hit u and u press an attack button as your getting hit thats still a counter-hit
Just train. I didn’t played T7 and I was spamming this move whole day now I get this everytimes. HCF can be slow but it is better to learn it fast. HCF part must be precise and last part super quick.
what do you think about 1,1d? to me it seems kind of absurd that you can go into GH off of the 12f jab -> jackhammer string lol, and im pretty sure the string is a natural leaving you +8 once youre in stance, ive just been pressing it whenever i know im plus but im not sure how plus
This guide is great dude. Would love to see another follow up video to this on his bread and butter combos…or a combo video that varies in difficulty. You are great. Thank you for what you do.
I have a combo guide out now for Jack, check it out!

Are you Xbox player ?

So far your tutorial has been the most helpful.I have been able to apply what I have learned and been doing so much better.
Great job!

Jack looks sick in this version and this guide is exactly what I needed to get started, thanks!
No problem!

So good, we are blessed to have you making jack-8 content like this
I know this isn’t a basic tip but if you use Gamma Howl to armor through an attack for a brief second your GH1 and GH2 will have their heat properties
Thanks for the guide can u do a blue spark uppercut tutorial?
great guide has everything
but jack-8 optimal combos video is also very needed
Here you go

Definitely need a combo guide after this brother

Thanks for this guide I mainly spammed lows as Jack now I will utilize his mid game more! He seems super fun to play in T8.
Thank you for the guide, new jack player, I'm getting far in ranked but there is so many moves I'll use in my arsenal thanks to you. And thank you for telling the extra properties to some of these moves.
So detailed! Finding your guide was such a treat. Thanks for putting in the work.
Such a useful video man, please do more stuff like this for Jack!
More to come!
Nice guide. Watched you and king Jaes. Very good
Glad you enjoyed!
Best jack guide out there!
Nice in-depth tutorial bro definitely using this as a point of reference
You needa make an advanced jack video next... Nice video man I've watched it like 3 times lol
Defnitely!
thank you for this, this is a great video. could you please make one about combos? best combo extenders, wall combos, best launchers on punish and whiffs, best combo enders, etc. i think alot of people would appreciate a video like that with the same amount of detail as this one about jack since he doesnt seem to be super popular online currently. thank you!
side note: how do you do the blue uppercut? i cant for the life of me figure it out 😅

Jack is so sick in 8, I'm learning a lot of new stuff.
Yo I asked for this yesterday talk about a top creator appreciate you my boy glad I gave you the sub
Joe made it just for you.
Huge thanks for making this video.
Super super useful guide. Thanks Joe!
good guide man. i suggest pre typing out your notes on the right and just have them all showing to make the whole thing flow better imo. cheers.
Surprised there's no section just covering staple combos and combo theory for Jack, would be nice to have written out notation showcasing what strings to use after what for consistent combos
He has a lot of combo clips on his channel so no need to put in in how to play Jack guide
I made a guide for combos now, check it out.
th-cam.com/video/xFq08TjzZlw/w-d-xo.html
great guide. helped me a lot as a tekken beginner. subscribed.
The back 3 knee is inturuptable with a jab. You can either 13 frame punish and risk the second hit or just get a free jab punish/counterhit
Love the guide bro. Thanks for this.
amazing guide I love how you wrote things down so now I can ss and memorize these thank you sm ❤

thnk you for this im eddy main and jack secondary main🙌
Good stuff Joe. I learned a lot. Thanks.
Nice guide, Joe.

King Jae has a Kuma guide!
Finally I can stop spamming stance 2
Alright I'm ready. Let's learn
Thanks for the guide my dude!!!!
Whats his best bnb after df2? Im tired of doing the 40 damage combo the game gives you lol! Thanks for the guide- ive managed a 65% wr over 400 games db1ing people.
Thanks man this was very helpful guide
You dropped the Beginner's guide, but do you think you could drop an Intermediate guide pls? Trying to learn situations optimal situations at the wall as well as Stage interactions
Stage interaction video dropping soon, in depth gh vid next, and a wall setup vid would be good.
How do you get the Wind-up uppercut to come out so easily at 3:05? I feel like there's something I don't understand about how to input it. Do you not need the DF input after HCF?
I'm also struggling with this move 😅
I will make guide
Thanks for the video. Really appreciate. What was that combo you tried to do against the wall off ws2, 4?
I have a wall combo section in my guide
th-cam.com/video/xFq08TjzZlw/w-d-xo.html
exactly what I needed
Can you do a video on Jack's button?Configurations the way you have it
I didn't understand the non-fallible hit-confirmation of WS+2, 4. Is there a specific moment to push the 4 that makes Jack only kick in case of confirmed hit?
GREAT GUIDE! btw, do you have any tips for blue upper? I can't seem to get it consistently with my PS4 controller
I managed to catch someone with a fully charged Gigaton for a perfect but I still lost the set
Nice quality
Real humble
good shit brutha
What are his best panic moves when you are getting rushed down? f2 comes to mind, but it is a high. The 13f shoulder is super unsafe. Powercrush is safe, but slow.
Use 3+4 as a parry and armor and attack after with GH stance options
GH armor into GH 3+4 is a power crush that activates Heat. Its my go to
Great guide, but I just can't get Jack-8 right.
Gigas was a far better main for me in T7. I had far more tools to use.
Engagement!
BTW, df4 tracks on both sides too
Fine start, but please in future guides don't just "I can do this/that, or follow up yadda yadda", actually say what you're doing with proper move names/inputs to make it easier to follow along.
Bro he made an hour long guide. If you can’t take a second to look at his fucking inputs along the left of the screen you aren’t ready for this video at all
@@b4ckwoodbillychill man it wouldn't take much effort to do that it's just positive advice to make the guides even better 👍
@@SorrowsPrison bro forgot to log off his work account

Was there another mid that you talked about but didn’t put on the list… was it df4? It was a kick I think
Might've forgot to write it down 😅
Why wasn't F2 mentioned for highs? its his fastest jab at 10 frames
I could’ve mentioned it but F2 is not necessarily a poke, because it’s -13F. It’s more of a punish/counter hit button, just my opinion.
b44 is interraptable
Thanks. Yup can confirm. Dumb string doesn't jail sadly
very sad, maybe use seldomly for the suprise.
Hey great guide thanks a lot, a lot to learn from it. Was wondering does he have CH set up against jabs off his +3 from WR+1+2 / GH+4 or the +4 from f,f+3 ? seems like his best button for this is d/f+4 but thats too slow at i15. Am I overlooking something or is f+2 Jack's tool for this?

you gonna release some advance guide?
Whats the input for jet blue upper?
Half circle foward and then down foward 1
thanks and i am currently watching your guide for it! @@JoeCrush_
🔌
That’s very helpful!(Didnt watch)
That's ok
I don't understand, in the movelist it says uf1+2,d,df+2 is an unbreakable throw, but when I set the CPU to break throws, it DOES break it...
the second part of the throw is unbreakable but the first part isnt. Its almost like a mini chain throw . If they dont tech the first part then the second is guaranteed
How do you give GH3+4 plus frames?
What is the input for the blue upper i don’t know what move that is
i believe it's half circle ff, df1 or 1+4, df1
Thxs
what does pressing all four of the buttons do? i am labbing an seeing him do shit, and seeing this creator use it after every stage reset in the lab but not sure what it does 🤥
It's called Ki-Charging and it's used to manually give your attacks counter hit properties.
How does counter hit work?
You need to interrupt a move with your move.
@@LevtNow so the move you use must be faster than the move you're countering?
@@badmana5768well it just needs to hit while someone is in the animation of a move. If a move is already about to hit u and u press an attack button as your getting hit thats still a counter-hit
How do you get blue upper more consistently?
You can buffer (doing during the recovery of other things) the HCF part.
1+4 will do it every time if you cant to the HCF part
Just train. I didn’t played T7 and I was spamming this move whole day now I get this everytimes. HCF can be slow but it is better to learn it fast. HCF part must be precise and last part super quick.
@@LevtNow can i buffer after b12? After landing b12 the blue upper timing seems strict and i cant seem to buffer the hcf part
Any Anti players in the chat? lol
I wish I could support this but this guy gets beat by trans and baby rages and quits to climb rank.
All of jacks moves are unsafe smh
what do you think about 1,1d? to me it seems kind of absurd that you can go into GH off of the 12f jab -> jackhammer string lol, and im pretty sure the string is a natural leaving you +8 once youre in stance, ive just been pressing it whenever i know im plus but im not sure how plus
I think 1,1d is a great tool and is amazing for punishment
Thanks for the great video also good fight in the tournament next time you'll win 👍
Any tips to do blue upper consistently?
