4 Key Mixups ALL Asuka Players Should Know (BIG ANNOUNCEMENT) | TEKKEN 8 Asuka Kazama Guide

[@TheProswagonist]

Good video. Something important to consider with d1+2 is if the opponent can backdash away from it. Some characters (Alisa) just don't have to hold the mixup at all. So to help fully see how viable the mixup is, I'd set the CPU 1st action to block, and the 2nd action to backdash.

[@coachkazama8434]

Good point!

[@Drag0nReap3r]

I wanna add that whenever I go for the mix after heat smash or running 1+2, I'll do db3 instead as my low option if I think the d1+2 won't connect

[@coachkazama8434]

@ both attacks have a 20 frame startup, I don’t see any reason to opt for the lower damage option here.

[@Drag0nReap3r]

@@coachkazama8434 The reason is that d1+2 can whiff. Like TheProswagonist said certain characters can backdash out of range of the move. Also if you do running 1+2 at tip range you're also out of range for d1+2 to land. Hitting the lower damage move is better than whiffing the higher damage one, but I'm not saying to generally pick db3 over d1+2. It's mainly in these rarer cases if you're observant enough to see how far you are

[@Yeshbit]

@@Drag0nReap3r d1+2 will always whiff against every character if Naniwa wr1+2 is blocked at tip range.

Man I really thank you. I never took a game that seriously before

I recently like 3 months got into Tekken playing it casually, I used Leroy didn't like him but I moved to Asuka best choice for me but me not being aware of the basics is crazy. I will be buying the crash course next check 💯

[@coachkazama8434]

It will help a ton especially forming the good habits first! Thank you for watching and supporting

[@ztrigger5304]

@coachkazama8434 i believe it, and anytime I love when there's dedicated teachers

[@emperoriro4391]

Same here except after Leroy I went Leo then Asuka

[@ztrigger5304]

@@emperoriro4391 imma try and main Leo after Asuka. Question since you also play Asuka 🤔 how do I do that one move where your running and Asuka does a straight hard jab I know how to do the running 1 and the running 1+2, but not that jab which seems op

[@emperoriro4391]

@ztrigger5304 you mean the small CH move? Cus that's 1+2

[@ProjectAlpha2023]

Thanks for the lesson, coach

[@coachkazama8434]

Of course!😊

[@MrGamat]

Thanks for the info. Will just have to check which of the mixups can be sidestepped

[@gabereell]

yep, i think coach should've mentioned f4. you can basically represent tracking awareness during your pressure and still be plus (keeping your turn). it is a fantastic move. when you throw it out, always be ready for the pick up since its a bit tight. even in higher ranks (gold) some folks will assume its negative and take their turn back, in which case you can get a free df1,2 or a lower commitment (armour beating) 1,2,3.

Thanks for the tips and tricks, I am sitting currently on Garyu and I am new to this game. Currently playing for 5 days

[@coachkazama8434]

Glad I could help you on your progress!

[@Acathlor]

if the opponent is doing power crush to avoid mixup then go for can can instead of the grab.

[@strobequintarian]

This is a great summerization of your frame trap video.

@coachkazama8434 Thanks man. Been Labbing her Sabakis for the past week and making good progress. They're gonna be a game changer!!!

[@Optimusprimez001]

Hello brother please can you make a video on the u1+2 okizeme after combo Like the 3 is guaranteed if opponent wakes up backward so can you explain the options. If you want you can just tell in message Or a short video

[@coachkazama8434]

I'm not quite sure what you're referring to. u+1+2 and Naniwa Gusto u+1+2 have entirely different uses. Using the regular u+1+2 is not a viable option for oki in comparison to the others. Naniwa u+1+2 primary use is to spike for extra damage for a round ender. Hopefully this helps

[@goblin9577]

another certified banger

[@xlDarkZerOlx]

Hey Coach, I've had opponents back dash and avoid Down 1+2 after a WR Naniwa 1+2. What should be done for opponents that do that?

[@coachkazama8434]

Jab will catch backdash! Only Naniwa gusto WR+1+2 will frame trap on block. Hope this helps

[@xlDarkZerOlx]

@ I’ll try it out thanks coach. I’ve had people back dash from me in past fights avoiding me. So I used Down Back 3 to make up the distance when I couldn’t hit them with Down 1+2.

[@sorataakihiko4875]

i am REALLY afraid of using a -18 low :/ i do realize i struggle to condition my opponent to duck... but i really feel many times that i put my life on that mix up :/ (especially with dmg we have from a heihanchi for example)

[@coachkazama8434]

Take the risk! Always look at your opponent’s response to d+1+2 on a case-by-case basis. You are limiting yourself by being afraid of what 'could' happen. There will be games where they don’t have an answer and it rarely gets blocked. There will also be games where they are ready to block the low and reveal that early, in which case that’s good! We will show 1+2 in this situation to beat the preemptive ducking.

[@sorataakihiko4875]

@coachkazama8434 will do so Coach Thx your videos help a lot.

[@Lynx4112]

Asuka my main, r1+2 can easily be duck and wiff punish losing most of your health

[@ApeXMJM]

If you start to notice that your opponent ducks your wr 1+2 everytime you can just Mix it up with f2, ff 1+2 or wr 3. You have to adapt to your opponent as well. F2 I would only use if I See them ducking cause it leaves you unsafe on Block. Wr 3 is quite safe but it can be side stepped. FF 1+2 might be hard to input but it is safe with the install. +3 or +4 iirc.

[@coachkazama8434]

@ApeXMJM Took the words out of my mouth!

[@Justintime94]

Just run towards them then stop for a split sec and do 1+2(it’s a safe on block mid launcher) usually get them.

[@daniele4673]

​@Justintime94 same. when they duck is the easiest option.

[@solitaryshadow3978]

I'm so bad at landing ff1, i think i make it too obvious and they side step or I'm not close enough

[@coachkazama8434]

Keep practicing it’s worth it!

Doesn't nng consume too much heat?, it's as strong as kazuya 1+4 in heat and yet consume ls about the same amount of heat

[@coachkazama8434]

It consumes a normal amount of heat

[@lenardsayazake9582]

I find that a lot of people start back dashing and spacing me out, is that still possible here after trying these mix ups?

[@Talking_Ed]

I'd say let them come to you you have good defensive tools, that's what I do at least when someone is just running away.

[@dontpetentertainment3450]

If you're opponent is playing patient and you get flustered just play the life lead game with them. Asuka has really good defensive tools and always have f2 ready if they whif a situation .

[@Straaaayyyy]

Unfortunately big part of Asuka pressure can be avoided by simply back dashing so it’s important to use her ‘get close’ moves like ws1+2 or uf3, f2 cancel

[@queenritsu47clips73]

If the back dash used forward momentum and delayed timing. A single backdash unfortunately caused alot of stuff to wiff with out girl. When people do this I start to read their timing in the back dash. Dash ff into seeing what they do. I like to delay the timing and hit them with the 1+2. Delay timing has helped me alot and it's like a whole nother mix up.

[@ragnarok7452]

She needs her blue buff to stop opponent from backdashing.
