Gotta say, as a red rank drag (also 1st Tekken game) who consciously tries to use drag's full toolkit, I was super impressed by his choice of moves/strings.

All Afro needs are the optimal combos and he's gonna get really far with the max punishments! The basic fundamentals are already good.

[@Wolfgang_von_Caelid]

​@@TheRealSlickGokubro the levels to Tekken go so deep that this is completely unfair. Dude went from playing no FGs, literally only arena fighter slop, to picking up arguably the hardest modern FG franchise and getting into advanced-beginner/ intermediate ranks within the first couple weeks of release. That is impressive. Obviously he's not gonna beat anyone with years of FG experience within a couple weeks, what a ridiculous standard.

[@TheBakerZen]

@@TheRealSlickGoku "He's not even good enough to beat actually good players". No shit, he is learning. The FGC can be so annoying, do you want new people getting into the game you like or not?

[@doublevendetta]

​@@TheBakerZen the secret answer for a lot of these losers is no, they like trying to be able to hold a superiority complex over people, and the more new blood comes into the genre, the more they start to be demystified of fighting games being this terribly difficult genre, which that makes these gatekeeping assholes look less special. Signed a member of the FGC proper for like, 12 years? Now? God I'm getting OLD.

Once again the streets need the Doto vs Afro tekken vid

[@blakeifer800]

Bind your RT to 1+2 and your LT to 3+4. I struggle with learning combos as well but this helps a lot. Still do your neutral game with jabs and lows but you'll be able to throw some heavy punishers in there with stuff like Right - RT or half circle - LT. I play with Victor and that makes stringing moves together for (beginner combos) but it helps you learn their moves for combos. Also play vs or an offline game mode where you can put the difficulty to ultra hard. Now that you've got the fundamentals ultra hard is good sparring for training to learn your moves and combos in a combat setting without losing rank. Or just set the training dummy to CPU and ultra difficulty to play around. Anyway from one Tekken newbie to another good luck my friend 👍🏼

[@revengedealer]

Man, what an arc this is. Love it. Also, Ki charge is 1+2+3+4. You might be rolling your thumb across all the buttons or pressing a bunch of presets you might have at the same time. You're also probably holding the controller wrong XD I mean, it's obviously working for you, but you might wanna give what's called "crab claw" a shot. It's where your index and middle fingers are above the face buttons and you use them to hit said buttons. I've been playing like that for as long as I can remember and Lil Majin also plays like that. Really helps in this game. I'm playin btw, you can obviously do whatever is workin for you. There really isn't a "right way" or "right controller" to play Tekken. As long as you're kickin ass, you're doin it right.

[@V5TheLegend]

I’m genuinely surprised, it’s been a long time since I seen Afro commit to a game. So proud after years of his content, he’s getting serious about fighting games. Hoping to see him hit high level, also wanna see what character he picks up next. If he’s serious I could see him playing Steve or Reina, fun characters. Then again, there is Lars who’s super anime.
