"Can't read your opponent if he doesn't think" pretty much sums up the special style Jin match

[@kongchho8547]

yeah you play someone who doesn't do things like footsies on purpose or knows how to block and it's a coin toss. almost as hard as playing a player at your level. Especially since tekken gives you so many tools to deal good damage. But eventually you totally read them and it's a cake walk but you only get 1 rematch.

@@VillainessAO Not really. You could definitely do that but only really for a round. As soon as the one round is up they realise they should play super defensive fundamentally and it just works. You can't hit shit anymore and get punished for every dumb random move you throw out, GG. Like people have played vs low rank players and won using only a single counterhit jab over and over after blocking shit. Because that's a reliable strategy in T7 against random/weak offence and it isn't in T8 because aggression is so busted.

Doesn't really close the gap. Mainman just didn't know how to punish it with Reina. She can get a full punish off into sentai pressure blocking the power crush, he just didn't know. I've done this several times to specialty scrubs.

@@tonysmith9905can you please explain more detailed? Sentai stance is blocking a power crush or what? I don't really understand you. As far as I know Sentai stance is just an animation that gives you extra movements and if you get a hit during this animation (by a 10 frame poke, for example), your mixup is going to be stopped, no? (That actually happens a few times in the video and also some of the players have so good reaction so they can interrupt my Sentai EACH_FUCKN_TIME. It makes me mad lol)

[@tonysmith9905]

@@stanislavchugunov No, what I mean is Jin after using that power crush, if i't sblocked, is so negative that 112 can connect fully if Jin continues to mash. Then you go into sentai for added pressure. 112 into sentai is a full punish here, just remember to only do the full string if he gets hit by the first. If you're getting hit out of sentai after the string then you're choosing a bad option. There's lots of moves, but usually what I like to do is the grab since it can't be teched and it's prettye fast. That then sets you up for f4, which is +2 on block. Can then once again go into 112 pressure from here since it'll beat any thing that's not a low or has weird movements. Simple game plan for low rank Reina: frame traps with 112 sentai 3 (3 is +2 on block after all that) just remember to not do 2 if they block 11s f4 (+2 on block) running 3 (+6 on block) sentai 1 is a fast power crush, but -14 on block, better against mashers, bad vs patient ppl, thankfully not launch punishable against MOST of the cast sentai grab sets you up for continued pressure

that special style jin opponent is so relatable. You fight someone who is very fundementally good at the game, you can get into the fun tempo of that fight. Then you fight someone like the special style jin who plays the game in the most basic boring way. This player usually perfects the art and timing of about 5 or 6 moves. And for a long time that's all they use and it's crazy how good they are with it.
