You said "Yoshi is difficult" in a video you posted 5-6 months ago. 😂 Now We not happy with legacy and generic tools? (Flash, df2, Spin & his one and only 10f string) What happened? 😆 Having a 72% win rate against Yoshi at TGS. I just wanna say: If you're getting hit by flash constantly, it means you can't stop mashing your flowcharts, forced mixups, and/or plus-on-block moves. To beat flash, all you have to do is actually learn the game and stop auto-piloting (in braindead mode). 1. Lab which of your strings can be flashed. 2. Delay or cancel your strings and flowcharts sometimes. 3. When you bait flash and he whiffs, you get a launch. Flash is -40/-44 on whiff and -15 on block. 4. Flash is nerfed compared to older games. RA has range and can beat Heat Burst/Power Crushes/Heat Smashes. After all, flash is a defensive tool with 0 range. Spin (which is nerfed now): His normal (SS) is trash-only better than Jack-8's and equal to the Bears'. Tons of moves that characters like Lili/Alisa can sidestep for free. Yoshi has to lose 8-18 HP to avoid. And because of the recovery, you can't punish everything like you would with a normal SS. Also, normal SS lets you sidestep and block. You can't do this with spin as it has longer recovery. And If Yoshi gets hit by a homing move while spinning, he loses HP on top of the 18 HP he already lost. 1,1: This character doesn't even have any other i10 strings! He doesn’t even have generic 1,2 jabs. 1,2 is -3 on HIT! 😂 1,2,1 is -16 with the third hit being high. He has no strings with lows in them, while other characters have mixup strings and i10 strings with up to 3 hits or more. Guard Break: 1 route can be avoided by holding back. 1 route can be avoided by recovery kick. 1 route you must stay down. If you stay down, Yoshi loses oki, and the total damage is lower than if he wall-carries you, which is why it’s rarely used in tourneys. This is the strongest iteration of Yoshi, but he still has many weaknesses compared to the actual top 5. Name one weakness for Jin-good luck. For a defensive character, Yoshi has a weak power crush. Other characters have: - Power Crush Heat engagers. - Safe Power Crush Heat engagers. Hwoarang has like 4 power crushes: One is hit-confirmable (& can go into stance). One is airborne, so you can't grab him. One is a safe high with fast recovery. Yoshi can't keep pressure applied. With very weak pokes, weak lows, and bad frames. Out of his 193 moves, only 3-4 are +oB, and they are slow-some are even minus on hit. No dick jab in 1SS. Weak WS punishment. Other characters can go into stances or forced mixups from fast, safe mids on block. or even lows. If anyone thinks Yoshi is top 1/top 2, go pick him up and let him carry you. Even Arslan Ash couldn’t get good results with him. He’s 100% not easy to pilot.

[@Lexionoo]

Nobody said he's easy to pilot , infact it was not mentioned in the video once , you honestly sound like you play against those blue ranks yoshimitsu i encounter , those that spam unlockables and b4 and 3 24/7 and flash , everybody has a high WR against those players because they suck at the game , either way you called the "main man" a guy who plays mishimas before u were born probably or at the time u were a baby a braindead man ?!! , not only you are disrespectful af you're trashing on a guy that plays areguably the hardest charchters in the game with dogshit strings and bad flowchart , characters that rely heavily on execution and fundamentals, comment truly represent the average yoshi mindest , if u play dragounouv and alisa and ling or any other top 5 , it's not the same as picking kazuya or lee or steve against yoshi , either way was gonna aregue about yoshi moves u discussed her and his oki "can be simply avoided" but you lost me when u said stop spamming your flowcharts against him , when in reality yoshi players all have a collective 56 def on average, it's actually funny , also says stop using flowcharts and auto piloting and then says , "flowchart sometimes" u sound like undercover yoshi crybabies that show on every video yoshi gets critisized on 😂

[@seaweeds2895]

One thing is that He still has to be nerfed too much damage for the amount of tools we have, man. People want the wrong shit to be nerfed. (Although I have to agree that our oki is bullshit.) Another thing is I feel like people see him easy because of his combos, not the other shit we have to do. Just saying as a Yoshi main. Edit: Forgot about this. Nerf flash due him being able to punish safe moves.

[@Mandroid0]

@@seaweeds2895 Yeah i agree. But -8 moves are -8 moves. Wouldn't call them safe if there is a character that has moves faster than 10f We're just used to calling them safe because generally characters don't have moves that are faster than 10f. Like Xiaoyu b+1 and Yoshi. Still only works for specific moves where the opponent ends up too close to you. And i do agree it's super good.

[@bigchung8285]

So if i do a hatchet kick,then I want to use the frames I earned (ie BrAiNdEaD flowcharts)I should get punished for that?so I should just back up and let you do something after I risked getting punished?and you STILL have the ability to punish me If I want a follow up?seems fair to me😂you say try to pilot yoshi if he is so easy,go try and jet upper a wiffed flash, then get back to me 😂

[@halfawakebanga]

Saying that Yoshi isn’t top 5 is severe downplay…he showed in the video that NSS his flash is a launcher. But it still functions as flash. Every thing you’ve explained might be true but him saying that you having these unique tools and doing loads of damage is still true. Your character plays his own game and the game he plays breaks the game which was held back by weak damage. That isn’t the case anymore. An I doubt most people who main him will continue after the nerfs IE DVJ mains

[@BlackPegasusBP]

It's worse than threat of a Rage Art, because Rage Art doesn't hit you if you were moving the moment it activates

[@thko6035]

but it also doesn't beat all buttons like a rage art does. It varies from character to character, everyone should lab it and find their characters anti flash buttons. This way this matchup feels way less frustrating. It's mostly moves where the character stretches out his hitbox and keeps his hurtbox back. Good jabs, magic 4's, orbitals, powercrushes, even some throws, then you got very risky stuff like backswing blows for hard reads.

[@iiiid3443]

With dvj it's worse. If you enter mourning crow from uf1 on block, or heat smash you MUST go for punishable on block MC2 or MC2,2, because doing nothing makes you eat flash for some reason. And MC1 loses as well. At least now heat smash MC can be cancelled.

[@shiekastate]

To everyone trying to argue why Yoshi isn't winning tournaments if he's so busted, have you considered tournament play isn't the only part of the game? I disagree with TMM quite a bit, but he's correct when he separates the game into four divisions: beginner, intermediate, high level, pro level. Pro level is so unbelievably miniscule in comparison to the rest of the playerbase, so stop hiding behind those players that you don't compare to to defend something. Akuma in T7 was busted af in tournaments, but you probably never had one blow you up like we would see on stage. Meanwhile, Marduk wasn't nearly as prevalent in tournaments, but he could delete 80% of your health off one launch; so was he busted? The answer is yes.

[@jovannyahumada7867]

100% agree with this statement

[@AlemanHyuga]

Facts. Tired of people trying to claim tournament this and tournament that when none of them or us are competing in tournaments. It’s irrelevant to what we’re talking about

Tournament play is the biggest part of the game. And the problem is, you guys aren't just saying Yoshi is strong, you are saying it's cheap, busted, almost like 'you can't lose if you play this cheap character'. So of course, people are going to constantly bring up the tournament charts.

[@TCGArsenal]

My own take about this issue: tournament play is not the only part of the game, yes, but it is the most noticeable, the most prestigious, the most engaging, and the most part that got people's attention. yoshi is busted, yes. yoshi is among top 5 characters in T8, yes. but if he's not winning tournaments, he's not worthy to be nerfed.

[@Miryemo]

​@@TCGArsenal Such a dumb take. Just because they havent won a tournament doesnt mean that they dont need nerfs. Take DVJ for example, everyone called him stupid and requesting nerfs at the start of the game but he wasn't winning tournaments. Claudio is winning tournaments and yet we dont see any nerfs for him since people actually find him balanced. Lidia just won a recent tournament but she's considered mediocre/mid.

I don't want him to feel like he can't do anything substantial against half the roster without significant luck is all.)

I seem to remember in TMM's character difficulty tier list video a few months ago, he was describing Yoshi's pressure as "fake" and getting caught in Yoshi's flash or oki set ups is basically your fault for getting hit by them and put Yoshi in Hard tier. I wonder if he has changed his mind in the last few months or if he still thinks Yoshi is a "hard" character but is strong nevertheless.

[@lazytommy0]

Next patch: We have found that while yoshi is regarded as strong, he is functioning as intended. In light of this, we have decided to adjust devil jin again by reducing the damage of his launchers 😂

[@FruitsBootG]

Flash is not the end all pressure tool TMM thinks it is. You, as the opponent, literally have to move into range for it to even reach in 1SS and if you do a move that DOES NOT extend your hurtbox into flash range then you can beat it clean by just doing your normal offense. I know TMM plays Mishima's 90% of the time so he probably gets ass-blasted because Mishima's gameplan is to force 50/50s by wavedashing in your face, thus extending your hurtbox into flash. Characters like Claudio are Yoshi's toughest match-ups because of his insane hit/hurtboxes. A good Yoshi will recognize when it's a good time to flash when they're on defense because you're so damn close to him. And if you're getting flashed after Yoshi does a string (ie 2,2 into flash), it's just a gimmick and easily baitable and punishable just like any other flowchart any other character can do.

[@EmadeesMusic]

Thanks, good take. Never thought i would see a well reflected king player before your comment

[@artembochkarev6285]

The reason doesnt make up top in tournaments coz yoshi players not good enough even with top 3 character. Let ma paint you a picture of tournament players. There is two types of players 1) Character loyalists, they play their character(s) despite current meta. All eddy or jack players for example are the ones who played em in tekken 7, its not meta characters to win tournaments. These type of players will not pick meta yoshi coz they play the character they like. 2) Meta players. Meta players like Arslan or Atif play top tier characters and switch em when meta changes for new meta characters. These kind of players usually pick most simple characters from top tier so they can learn em faster and switch to new one fast too. Yoshi is too complicated character to pick for meta player, so they pick easier to master (dragunov or nina for example). So these group of people will not pick yoshi too. By that simple logic the only players in tournaments that use yoshi is from first group aka character loyalists. Thats why there is not a lot of yhoshi players in tournaments despite it being top 5 in current meta.

[@MJfp6lx]

As a Yoshi player, I remember hearing people complaining about how they 'nerfed' Flash and being bewildered at the outrage. Of course they had to make it not launch on normal hit; imagine the Yoshimitsu we would've had right now if they *didn't* nerf it, if this is the Yoshi we have now.

[@Ephringael]

Actually we found out that the nerf to 1ss flash allowed us to use it as combo filler after basically every launcher, which added roughly 10 damage to every combo. If Flash always launched, Yoshis combo damage on average would go down. It was never a nerf, it was a buff in disguise.

I get why they'd want rage arts as a comeback mechanic so matches aren't over until they're over, but at this point now we have combos that do half life, recoverable health, heat to extend combos, and rage giving a damage increase, rage arts did not need to be in tekken 8, comebacks are always possible without them

Tekken was always a game where two or three mistakes would cost you a round. We have plenty of clutch comebacks even before rage. It was better because the player had to truly earn it.

You can't use tournament placements as the sole metric for character strength since simplicity is a major factor for tournie players when making picks, main or pocket - to counteract tournie nerves, potential jetlag and the stress from being in a loud crowded environment causing suboptimal play. Easier to manage if youre not juggling a complex character's movelist. Considering how complex she can be, only those who have great familiarity with her would be likely to run her in a tournament, and she's always been a rare character, especially at the top level.

He has some huge weaknesses to that the average player will never understand bc it is something they will never see. Yoshi can hardly deal with sidesteps.

Rage arts were balanced only because rage drives existed in T7. In T8 they’re just awful when combined with heat smashes. In T8 i should’t be punished by a rage drive absorbing my jab.

[@Xenoxion]

I really miss rage drives. I wish they were the only way to use your rage - I really loathe the hyper armour on rage arts. And rage drives was more skilful to use, especially now that all rage arts are mids. Remember how some were highs and some were even low? All the character is slowly getting sucked out from Tekken. Heat smash should just have been another way to use rage. Maybe using heat engager/burst would lock you out of rage and would be limited to heat smash for that round. The heat bar would naturally go down like normally. This would give greater agency to players: "Do I wanna use heat as a temporary boost with heat drive/smash option or rage as a semi permanent boost with rage arts option". It would also remove the hesitation created by a potential rage arts if they used heat prior.

And most special level 3 arts can be jumped and has way more counter play also they aren't traditionally 1 button moves you have to actually do motion inputs. Strike 3, you get 5 rounds of this bs back to back in tekken, in SF6 you'd be lucky to save up 2 special 3 level arts let alone having access to 5 of them and 5 heat smashes depending on how far the rounds go in the tekken match.

Let's get some facts in here, with only some splashes of subjectivity. Yoshi is absolutely great, finally a top tier. I would disagree with anyone that wouldn't call him a top10 character, because they'd clearly wouldn't know what they're talking about. I would also disagree with anyone who'd call him "arguably top1", because they also clearly don't have a clue. As a yoshi enjoyer for 20 years, I can honestly call him a carry char in T8, especially online. His ability to counter the main way everyone plays this game, along with his superb tools and most people's lack of knowledge about his strengths and weaknesses, even after all these months, are not to be underestimated. In a game with actual perfect chars though (jim, nina, alisa, for instance), it's delusional to put him beside them, or even worse, above them. The character actually has shortcomings (that TMM and others trying to "educate us about Yoshi" somehow {forget} to mention), but I guess it's easier to complain than to lab, innit. Those 6month yoshi-bandwagoners who picked him up for the easy Ws and try to downplay him, will swiftly leave him for the next spotlighted top tier once he's nerfed, whether justly or to the ground. And good riddance. We will still be rocking the ninja grasshopper, both online and at locals, and will still be memeing and cheesing those that remained ignorant of his strengths and weaknesses - and for the last 2 decades that's a majority of the players and it'll probably won't change.
