Tekken 7 Tips For Beginners - Breaking Throws

[@Jdietz43]

Dear Namco: literally no one who just got this game would be able to ever know this without Aris. Thanks you disgruntled bearded man you.

[@CErra310]

People knew how to do this shit back in Tekken 1 without any kind of tutorial

[@xhelixshotx]

Jdietz43 These tutorials should've been in the game. Why market a game heavily to newbs and casuals but not make a beginner tutorial mode? Heck this game doesn't even properly introduce you to screw attacks, only those super small tooltips that barely anyone looks to at all. Newb friendly mechanics aren't what make a game newb accessible; but a tutorial mode that explains the mechanics thorougly. TTT2 was a very advanced game but it was more accessible to newbs in my opinion due to its Fight Lab mode that explains bounds, tag assaults, punishing, highs mids and lows.

[@nlCowlord]

It's because casuals don't care about deep mechanics most of the time.

[@drankydrank1]

Mitchell Coulet Nor will they ever if they never know they exist in the first place.

[@waking00one]

this, the game is utterly impenetrable to someone new without a ton of research, and tbh a full game released this day and age should really do a half decent job at explaining itself tekken is wonderful because of how complex it is, how about the game actually tried to introduce itself so more people would get into it

[@bluetron7060]

"Fuck old players they'll figure it out, lets focus on the new players" Won my heart right there.

[@Organicwatermelon123]

[@gen9585]

Aris is like a cool uncle that teaches you Tekken fundamentals

[@goodninji8]

"So you got your first Rolling Death Cradle today, Sonny? *tousles hair* Hey, alright! That's my boy!"

[@HystericalHuntress]

Teaches you Tekken then drops the game after the first year and a half because this isn't 2001 in an arcade where he can listen to button presses and model his responses off of that. That's the real reason he hates online, it ain't the netcode.

[@Gnarvana]

Eh, big cousin

[@pauljung5691]

Funny you should say that, I get really nervous when a news outlet interviews my uncle as well.

[@XMan396]

good shit to the guy who brought up the armor thing

[@b_is_alive]

i'll be honest..idk what does that mean ..that a jargon?

[@bicarbonateofsoda117]

bastiisalive every character has a move where they can take hits WHILE continuing with the move. So for example Bryan fury has armour (flash of white) on his mach punch. if he gets hit with a couple of punches or kicks while his mach punch is happening, then Bryan will lose health but his mach punch will still happen. So getting grabbed while performing an armour move, example mach punch, you will not be able to escape from the grab. if that makes sense

[@b_is_alive]

flash of white...you mean the power break thing?

[@yukinehiruko2217]

You can basically think of it as super armor. They are blockable, but if you do them randomly it can catch people off guard sometimes. Which is why it's not always good to just spam attacks over and over lol

[@b_is_alive]

yeah xD my opponent online did that with his Jin , but his health is short , so right exactly when I used Josie's rage art xD , then boom... but thanks for the info xD

[@infinitree]

[@TwaritWaikar]

Wait, you can change the music?

These videos are so invaluable for new players, it's ridiculous.

[@etsiyo737]

you dont know how much i love you dude, bless your soul you are the greatest teacher, every one of your tutorials are so clear and easy to understand, the best.

King's feets splashing the water... W H O A T E C H N O L O G Y !

[@Ilovevidgames123]

It just fucks me up because I can't stop noticing the fact that his back foot creates a noticeable splash during the back hop part of his neutral animation while his forward foot produces absolutely nothing. Same thing with Josie.

[@KusunokiSG47]

Grant Larson But with Josie you will get the stunning boing boing animation !

I once played against a Bryan dragging a sword behind him in Infinite Azure. Every animation was on point, even pulling the sword out of water. 10/10, would fap to Unreal Engine 4 again.

[@madneo87]

For multi throws you get an audio queue when to press your break. It's the cracking sound you hear when you do multi throws. Also for the one doing the throw it is a great queue to know when you can input your next throw command ;)

[@ashtar3876]

Same for when you continue your chain in some throws: with that universal tackle on king, you have to input 1+2 at the same time as the crack on 4+3 or 1+2

[@XiaoGege]

Whenever Aris does a Rolling Death Cradle, he sounds like he's drumming LOL

[@thechugg4372]

This is the best guide of all time, so many views but so few likes and comments.

[@mkh1688]

just won my first quick tournament because of watching a handful of your videos. The rudiments performed poorly are too much for button mashers.

[@mkh1688]

A) I'm just a dumbass hillbilly, but seems like you could easily discern the difference between what type of tournament I stated I won, and some big name tournament. 2) If the pros who are pouring life into these tournaments with countless hours of practice are feeling insecure, or that my playing online tournaments in some way detracts from their glory...that is a flaw in their character, not in me. Thanks for your opinion, thought police.

[@awbr1991]

That is crazy about grabbing armored moves. Did not know that.

[@aradeanugraha4662]

what is armored moves

[@NeoRidero]

every character has a move that has armor properties, which as their names suggest gives you armor for the duration of the move. Armor will pass through mids and highs (you WILL take damage, but not be staggered, meaning your attack WILL come out no matter how much you get hit), but are broken by throws and lows.

[@HighLanderPonyYT]

MLPAiden Hit invulnerable for short. Or rather, immunity to hitstun.

[@NeoRidero]

Yeah immunity to hitstun is a lot better of an explanation.

[@Rreflex123]

I mean, you won´t be able to do it on purpose so who cares?!

[@dragonballa5083]

Aris, you're the hero that Gotham deserves. Thanks so much!

[@invigale]

I think the armor thing is in one of the tips that Tekken 7 shows bottom of the screen when it's loading like power crushes goes through high and mid attacks but are vulnerable to grabs and lows or some shit like that

[@SticksAandstonesBozo]

Wow the way you describe and explain things is really refreshing. You remind me of myself lol. I’m so sick of KZbin tutorial videos that are 80% “uhhhhh” and “hang on guys I should have done this before sorry”

This is what I love about Tekken you can spend hours in practice just learning new shit. Also thanks for these guides as a new player into Tekken as far as getting serious about the game these videos are very helpful.

[@Ravenor99]

I have something if aris didn't mention it: You can go to controller settings and bind buttons... let's say 1,2 (Same time) to a shoulder button. Like if I tap R2 on my ps4 controller my character does the 1,2 move. It helps with combos, just wanted to drop that little info :)

[@slimarkane5735]

For any King user reading this: King has that 1,2,3,4 buff if you press everything at the same time...The binding key really helps with that

[@truebigboss]

[@1Piecer]

I think that applies to any move, as long as you grab him before opponent can do his move, it is considered unbreakable. I have done it many times, you can consider it a punish of some sort since it happen during the opponent's attack.

At least the arm breaking sound seems to be a good cue that tells you when to break it seems :) (when to break the next throw)

[@0ctopusComp1etely]

I was legit scared that the armored grab-punish would be unbreakable throughout multi-grabs. I mean, it makes sense to make grabs a hard punish against armored moves, but a full unbreakable chain would just be excessive.

Question. At the end how did he break rdc with a 2, when the first grab looked like a two hand grab? Wouldn't he have needed to break it with 1+2? So I guess it's good to get into a habit of breaking left arm with 1 and right arm with 2,even if they aren't command throws because you may never know which type of throw they're gonna do right ?

I'm kinda interested too. I've done a search online and have some ideas. But a recommendation for sub £50, sub £100 and sub £200 sticks would be awesome. Building a stick seems like an awesome option too and KZbin has a ton of tutorials for how to do it.

[@xbon1]

very important question @PsyShot. the LOWEST TIER fightstick you want to buy is a qanba q1 which will run you $80, but if you got the budget, you want a $150 stick... OR if you want a better gamepad for fighters, hori fighting commander.

[@butzemann69]

Try to get a Tournament Edition Fightstick from Madcatz from an older game. I snagged a TE Fightstick for Soul Calibur V for 90 € . Never played that game , the artwork on the stick is ok I guess , but I don´t really care.

[@Panzerwitch69]

xbon1 i agree but i have a TE2 and Obsidian so low budget is never an option for me. my philosophy is always buy high first so you dont buy twice.

[@fahdmohamedjaberfurooghi9273]

Mid air throws like Ogre's, Kunimitsu's, Kings, Lars ect. are unbreakable. Also wall throws like Lili's. Not sure about Asuka's d/b1+2 if it is breakable or not. I'v seen Nina's u/f3+4 be broken even tho both of them use regular hit and block sprites. The diff tho is Asuka's is unblockable/works even on block. anyone have ideas on this? If anyone can answer this... does this mean that some on hit throws are breakable and others are not?

[@deerlow1851]

Attack throws are different

[@Supersonic]

I didn't know tekken throw chains were like this. in DoA they are harder to escape because you can't mash, and if you break on the same frame as the attacker continues, attacker gets advantage. But with that said attacker also can't mash to continue throw chains. so if you know your opponent's timing and they don't, you'll basically break 100% of the time.

[@steeltiger8222]

the little cscrolling information on the bottom of the screen during loading says you cant break throws during sheild move.

Wait, so how do you break the chain throw? He only explained when you can break but not which punch you have to hit or if you have to mash both. In neutral you can look at their hands but during a chain you can't see which button they press.

[@OathOfRevenge]

Vulcan Hades It's a guess, but there's more to it. The usual mindgame is that 2 break branches do the most damage and 1 breaks do less.

[@Bumpki]

Wait since chained throws can be broken by mashing the right throw break, does that mean you can only people that don't know how to break throw? Does it mean chain throws don't happen in higher levels?

what about tech rolls? I heard you talking about those in your king gameplay videos when you did the spinning throw grapple but I never understood what you meant or how to do it.

[@russelmaximo8885]

Butter of Sorrow that spinning throw is called giant swing and what aris meant is you gotta tech roll during the throw impact to lessen the damage Now doing tech roll you might wanna mash 3,4 right after you hit the ground. It has somewhat similar features with side roll but they are completely different with each other

[@russelmaximo8885]
