I do coaching too!! - metafy.gg/@imortalxsoul/sessions

[@Juwan171]

It probably gonna get brought up here but stance is called iai which is the marital art of katana quickdraws

[@imortalXsoul]

i ain’t got time for all that 🤣🤣🤣 (thanks though)

[@usmansubhani7482]

I like how Iai is basically his main stance which you’ll use often. Perfumer is easy punish, but Iai stance is amazing. You have a combo from 1, and strong attack on 2. It’s good to use on those running in and 1+2 mainly to chase since it has amazing range. His 2 combo is easy air combo too, which makes him the most beginner friendly character ever.

[@Aerowind]

@@usmansubhani7482 Yeah this. I'm completely new to Tekken (I tend to stick to 2d fighters) and Victor has been a breeze to play as a beginner because of that. 2222 goes straight into iai for a mixup, and you can use it for a decent air combo right after launcher.

[@Reddit_storiesshorts528]

@@usmansubhani7482how do you go back to your main stance from perfumer

[@zar-sama5765]

Bro actually a non nonsense guide. Straight to the point. Made it so much easier to pick him. Thanks man 🙏

[@imortalXsoul]

thanks bro!

[@usmansubhani7482]

1+2 in Iai Stance is the chasing enemy move (since it has amazing reach), but 2 should be used if the opponent starts closing in. You were spot on in that the player HAS TO stop button mashing if you want to use him properly. Very informative.

[@OnyxeBlade]

Going to be checking out this video a lot since I'm also playing/learning Victor. Thank you so very much for making this video

[@nobiisok9572]

Thanks a lot for the guide bro! I struggle to learn new characters quickly so this is helpful

[@Mightykeef]

This is an amazing guide

[@imortalXsoul]

ty!

[@macdrizzae]

Really nice breakdown, thanks for actually showing the application of his neutral tools.

[@Harperlarp]

Thanks for uploading this. Been playing Tekken since 2 but definitely needed some info on this new character.

[@BLKthunda1220]

Its been so much going on these first few days. I think victor is the perfect sub for raven mains. Thanks for the useful tips. Similar yet different.

[@scenic6322]

Solid guide, thank you!

[@Chummy8]

Started Tekken 8 with an old main (Raven) but since this is a new game, I think I might as well start over with a new character. Thanks for the video.

[@BubsArcadeFighters]

Great Victor guide it was very helpful! Liked and subbed! Was finding Vic very overwhelming but hes super fun to play! 😎👍

[@imortalXsoul]

Glad it’s helping!

[@CG1337Noob]

First Tekken game I'm taking seriously and picked Victor as my main cause I love metal gear. This is honestly one of the better guides cause you explain neutral tools and how certain things force opponent into low only options, and you're right Perfumer is used mostly to close the gap. Hope you make more I hit that sub

[@imortalXsoul]

Thank you!!

[@finnt4937]

Thank you for the video.

[@beanothy7515]

Thank you man!!

This really helped me get started with victor, great vid.

Good stuff!!

[@synthetiqchannel]

Thanks for a great overview. Would love to see a more detailed dive in victors tactics for sure!

[@imortalXsoul]

definitely coming later down the line 🥷🏿

[@howardonthepost3738]

Saw the pistol and the sword and said yea I gotta play him. Thanks for vid, it’s like explaining rocket science to me but I’m slowing following.

[@imortalXsoul]

He is complicated, but I hope it helped at surface level at least

Ive played lots of sf and mk, but im new to tekken. Im definitely coming back if you make more stuff like this. Great video!

[@imortalXsoul]

Thank you! We need more tekken players

[@daneoman1000]

This is my first ever Tekken ever at 42 as have always played only Street fighters or Mortal Kombats, Thanks for the indepth guide for someone starting out it made sense. Victor plays similar to Smoke and Kenshi combined. He is going to be my main for now.

[@imortalXsoul]

sick! hope you enjoy the game 🔥

[@usmansubhani7482]

I’ve learnt things I never noticed in this vid.

[@EclairTw]

First time Tekken player thanks for the tips.

[@imortalXsoul]

No problem!!

[@SirSabzZa]

Took me a long while to get my head around your 1-2-3-4 terminology but having the inputs on the left helped massively with that haha

[@imortalXsoul]

That's tekken terminology

[@robinmendoza5647]

Nice guide! A personal thing I like to do as a wall combo after a wall carry or wall splat is 21f > Perfumer 22 It's not the most damage but it leaves me at Lai stance to do a 50/50 mix up for another potential wall splat or a scary low

[@Tom-rd9qi]

really solid vid

[@imortalXsoul]

Thank you!

[@usmansubhani7482]

The standing 2 combo can be used as filler tbh. It sets them up for a second combo after ending with 3.

[@user-zq3pw4fd1c]

Thank you for sharing, I learned a lot from this video, from TAIWAN

[@imortalXsoul]

🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@usmansubhani7482]

I’ve been playing ghost a few times and realised a lot of his strings can be interrupted. Especially in Iai stance. Spamming that stance too much will make it so they will rock, paper, scissors on your attack. If blocked, then you will either have to do three things. 1. Do not follow through and wait to use power crush 3. If low, then use parry. There are only two choices once you stop. Anything else is slow enough to interrupt. 2. Cancel stance into B1+2 power crush. 3. Cancel to evade a low with B1+3. This one can be interrupted with a string. But heavy hits get whiff punished easily.

[@EzioZ]

🔥🔥🔥

[@ladrellhart2063]

Nice

[@Zarkator]

maybe its because I played so much noctis in 7, but victor seems relatively simple to me. hes got a little bit of everything, def gonna main him for the first while

[@LiangHuBBB]

I got another Q Ive seen ppl doing 1 teleport 1 teleport 1 teleport loop during the lai stance, whats the input for that? I know his teleport back is pressing upbackward & back but I cant do this during the loop

[@imortalXsoul]

iai 11 d or uf11 d

[@JagJohal]

I approve this video for the algorithm. Praise be the algorithm

[@RealAstroWhale]

Played tekken 8 in a college fair earlier, used victor and applied the knowledge i have from this video and other sources. I got my ass beat since I have 0 hours but the Dragunov said that his ass was sweating for a second, thanks for making it not confusing.

[@muzikhumalo421]

Thank you so much for tutorial 😭😭 I love this character but i have a problem interpreting the move set and their various properties

[@imortalXsoul]

Yeah, he can be very overwhelming at first. Hope it helped 👌🏽

[@georgelai2810]

Nice video. I think it would have been great if you included a punishers section.

[@JcgLounge]

I’m definitely gonna main him. Both him and Raven are in my top 5. Thing is tho I’m probably gonna have to commit to putting in a lot of work with Victor.

[@LiangHuBBB]

thx bro

[@Reddit_storiesshorts528]

How do you leave perfumer stance and go back to normal

[@NerdLegionInc]

Been playing him since launch loving him so far. I like Reina too but not as much.

thx

Here for the algo. Thanks for the hard work.

[@oliviermaker8578]

Hi , how to have a New weapon with victor?

[@NuckleBebop]

Pretty Cool Character, definitely gonna dabble with him a bit i want to pickup a 3rd counter-hit heavy character so its between Vic & Lee.

[@imortalXsoul]

oooh yeah lee looks super fun

[@shadowskillz786]

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but this the first Tekken game I'm actually trying to get better on, can someone explain the numbers? Like what does 1 and 2 mean?

[@usmansubhani7482]

I find him easier to use than my original main, but because I’m switching mains my brain keeps pressing the wrong buttons. My reflexes are geared towards the wrong moves right now. He has good lows but you don’t need them too much. What you need to remember are the mids because because he can force people to crouch with his 1 2 combos. My current crucial flaw is that I keep baiting the opponent to crouch, then doing a low. Which anyone could tell is a counterintuitive setup. His lows are basically used to slip up those trying to get aggressive. His standing parry does no damage but it does get opponents out of your face.

[@thejoekage9499]

something to note here is that if your opponent actually trades with you as you parry you can launch them with FF2 for a scaled combo. Intetesting.

[@Aerowind]

Why do you need to sidestep after Iai 2 on the launcher combo before downforward 3? The combo challenges do the same kind of thing without the sidestep, and I haven't run into a situation where I downforward 3 doesn't connect or something. Does it reset scaling or something weird? Just for positioning?

[@imortalXsoul]

its for the wall carry ender, it doesnt hit otherwise

[@beanothy7515]

I am new to tekken, how do you set up the wall splat. Are you just baiting out a move into df3+4, are you combo-ing it in somewhere?

[@imortalXsoul]

it can come from a few situations, if you bait a move and whiff punish it straight into a wall splat or if you combo and carry them to the wall

[@cyberblakk]

any recommended low hit combos? if my enemy is always blocking mid and highs?

[@imortalXsoul]

he doesn’t really have any other than bt f41

[@JakeInTheUK]

No one seems intimidating to me now that i have masters reina’s move list and know all her moves off the top of my head :)

[@imortalXsoul]

😂😂

[@usmansubhani7482]

One of the best distance moves is just shooting his gun into Iai stance, then you have the option of waiting until they run into your 2, or be chased by 1+2.

[@1991jj]

you can also cancel iai 11 with down and loop 11d 11d. And I think you get a really damaging u1+2 after heat dashes that dont launch. Don't quote me on that though

[@imortalXsoul]

you can indeed, pretty cheap if you can condition!

[@f-Iy-]

thank you for your effort❤

[@imortalXsoul]

[@LuciidDreamz]

I destroy people with the down back 4 counter hit. It’s not the safest, but the counter hit window is insane and it’s a guaranteed 15% into a combo

[@Truetexan-ze3pf]

Also a great homing move is uf2. Literally range 3.5 mid that’s homing and safe. Not great damage and nothing on counter hit but still ridiculous

mid attack

[@JohnSmith-uf3yn]

I main & use only him & im the #2 ranked highest on Xbox rn & red rank as of now- after 200+ matches he’s… fun, but mid tier at best. Side step is meh, strings + mix require heavy commitment & are highs so.. hopefully he doesn’t get nerfed or anything. Also, his warp backwards & gun could use some recovery frame buffs, it takes a lot of frames to recover imo.

[@imortalXsoul]

i agree with the teleport stuff, pretty useless

[@tek87]

His sword stance is Iai, not Lai. Iaijutsu is the art of sword fighting from the draw.

As a Lars main, hes absolutely a remake of Lars. His perfumer stance is dynamic entry in every way, the command is even the same. He has Lars UF3 but its just UF4 lol. There's others but I wont go into it. I dont know another character other than Lars and picked Victor to be the second character I learn. He seems like the perfect secondary coming from Lars.
