[@tehpoecuk]

dragunov : *breath me : SIDESTEP RIGHT

[@inbetweenjetlag]

On point. Straight to tackling pressure move. What more can I say. Bravo my dude

[@IHellsweep]

Solid advice man! I really struggle against Drag I’m gonna go into practice when I hop on and train this

[@xiSyndox]

Glad it helped, good luck with your training!

[@nosparkss]

Thanks man! Now I know what people will try to do when I play Dragunov

As a Dragunov main from Tekken 7 (haven't played 8 yet), these quick tips would help you against a lot of Dragunov players for sure. I myself play Drag less aggressively and instead focus more on punishing whiffs, and using a few tracking moves to compensate for the linearity of Drag. I love to use a bunch of different throws while learning my opponent's rhythm to use his parries. Here's a small list of things to watch for but take with a grain of salt since I haven't played 8 yet: -He has a generic parry that works against most highs and mids, automatically goes into a command grab -Secondary low parry that evades highs and goes into a grab when timed right against a low -His sweep: hits low and goes into a command grab on counter hit when close. (I think they may have changed the effect on counter hit) -It can also be cancelled into a dedicated low grab so be careful. -Best to either hit mid or low to interrupt because it's slow. You could also block the low hit or stand to avoid the low grab but that's more tricky. -His dashing 2: Can be cancelled into a standing grab (I think the break is 1+2) -2 extra standing grabs (f + 2+3) (f + 1+4): Come out a little faster, less range, a little extra damage. -He has a low grab like King -A mixup string that you might not see very often: 2, 1, 3 (can't remember all the hits but standing guard is fine), but can mixup into 2, 1, 4 which hits low on the last hit. Both weak against sidestepping since it's pretty linear. - I hear he can no longer go into a tackle while standing without using a string in T8

[@JohnWilliams-jr3xp]

Man...wait till you play with your boy in t8. He's a nightmare. Top 3 for sure..he gatekeep me out of purple😂

[@Geheimnis-c2e]

he's definitely not linear in this game bro lmao he tracks a fuckton of stuff

[@notisac3149]

@@Geheimnis-c2e Idk, when I played Drag I had trouble against people who know how to sidestep so I had to figure out how to play around it in T7 by using more tracking and sidestep crushing moves. Then again I wasn’t amazing at the game so it is possible that I’m missing stuff despite watching the same video lol.

[@kwasit1055]

needed to start learning matchups, thanks man

[@MiluraLP]

one important point is that when you dont break the uf 1+2 grab you need to stay on the ground. Drag got a garantied b4 of it. If you stand up he gets b4, 3 into heat

[@BigDaddyWes]

If you find yourself getting blown up all of the time by long range moves or strings, it's most likely because you don't realize how good side stepping is. Never forget it's a 3D game. Practically any move that isn't hard coded as a tracking move can be evaded by some means.

[@odd02]

Pretty decent guide i suppose. When u have people side step alot i just switch up the moves i use. I just start using tracking moves or moves with some tracking built in like b 1,2 and db 2,1,2(i think that's the input)

[@ereisfireboi]

exactly, I like when people sidestep simply because I play with drag, I don't even play him that way lol

[@odd02]

@@ereisfireboi yeah that would also help if you play him unorthodox

Wow that was so helpful ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ u got loyal subscriber

[@psuedotoxin]

can u tell me the company/model of your hitbox controller?

[@rosszhu1660]

That’s why Tekken is a difficult game which scares away many new players. You need to understand the moves of all characters, not just those you main. 😅

[@Nova_Afterglow]

i would argue that you can get simple notes like this on the top 5 chosen characters and be just fine. i reached purple without researching any machups at all. just now am i doing it, cause i feel it would behoove me if i wanna get past purple.

[@monocyte2210]

As a former dragunov main, i approve of this video

[@ljay2255]

What about his command grab when he is crawling on the ground ? It’s an important aspect you didn’t mention I need help on that 😅

[@hasanali5300]

Thanks coach you're a life saver

Any time

[@Chacris45]

[@JESSROCKEDChannel]

oh god, that sneak attack, i thought it was a natural string.

[@xiSyndox]

Luckily it isnt

[@ludvigeulefi]

After the 1+2 grab you can wake up with up and then back to block and punish the d/f+2

[@xiSyndox]

True, but Dragunov’s started using b4 right after the grab which is guaranteed unless you tech roll left

[@fgcsev5214]

B4 is guaranteed after the grab no matter what

[@Peetskeet]

Great and to the point ❤

[@xiSyndox]

Thank you!

[@ZombiAstral]

DO NOT rely on Sidestepping his Sneak hijinks online! It is NOT reliable, and you will eat Flowchart damage for days. Dragunov is one of the few characters in T8 that consitently punishes you for blocking and playing well. If you both get down to LOW HEALTH Clutch exchanges, you'll most likely lose. The most reliable method in this DogsXit game is to out aggro and lock him down. What a miserable, broken character to play against.

[@ntope001]

I just reached god rank thanks to this thanks 🎉

I was doing Kings running knee while Drag was on the ground and he did that crawling ground grab and i got countered by that down grab. Doesnt make sense.

It’s generally linear, most running moves are, with certain exceptions (*cough* Azucena)

[@megadrillubreaker8817]

You can step qc4 but if he does qcf2 it tracks and launch you... so there is no easy way out of this mixup unfortunately.

[@JadenDaJedi]

Can be easily negated midscreen by blocking qcf4 and then sidewalk left. Beats every option due to the pushback (except crouch cancel b3 but that’s a massive callout by the dragunov).

[@ThermalPizza7]

Does ssl work?

[@kei.s7077]

No, easy way to remember is that his left arm us always infront so like in a real fight you slide into his blind spot which is your right his left

[@luongtime5364]

SSR got it!

[@SotitoFox]

How to demolish any jack 8 in 3 when.

[@SSJBen]

Kinda inaccurate. You SWL if he does WR2 from range 3 and beyond. SSR and you'll get clipped. In fact most of his moves from range 2 and lower can be SSR. But it's at range 3 is when you have to SWL.

[@Repetz94]

yeah but no dragunov throws wr2 in your face like that after a jab

[@jaym.1446]

He’s just showing you that it can be sidestepped right, it’s not a real setup

[@esqeleteT8]

No, half dragunov players run from 5km away and u can sidewalk his asses, for the people that actually do the iwr2, you have to figure out their pressure and timings in order to sidestep him
