I've come to appreciate Shaheen so much more now, even having mained him for a while in T7. He's fun to style on people with, but I can also see how players might not want to put in so much work to get the same level of damage another character could just shit out for almost nothing. But when you get in someone's head with Shaheen, it's a beautiful feeling to watch them crumble.😊
@HouseMusicNinja7 ай бұрын
One thing i liked about Shaheen was he was a new generation Tekken character that plays pure Tekken like he was around since Tekken 1. Hes got your usual pokes, df 1 and hop kick and even the slide. He may seem boring to most but hes very fundamental and teaches you how to play the game well.
@Sammysapphira7 ай бұрын
I think that's the funniest part everyone complains about new tekken characters that "aren't tekken" and then when they see a genuine TEKKEN character with nothing but df1 jabs and low pokes they say they're boring and should be removed from the game. Just like same thing happened with kazumi

Shaheen is the most Tekken character in Tekken 8 imo. He's a combination of every fundamental tool and one of every unique mechanic e.g mix up stance, slide, guard break. He is the perfect gateway into learning Tekken holistically, learning every character. If you learn how to use Shaheen slide or guard break that WILL translate to others.

Many of his strings (df4,1 or 2,3 or f2,3 for example) are exactly long enough to charge Al Ghul master. Meaning you can chip in heat an just throw it out when they are blocking high already. Also at wall Charge d,u2 wall staggers when not in heat meaning and its minus 13 so 2,3 charge d,u2 is a frame trap loop at wall. Wall splatting df4,3 into charge d,u2 for resplat hits real hard. His ws3,snkc loops require a low juggle. Common route is launch, 3,snkc,fc4,1 db2,snkc,ws3,snkc,ws3,snkc,ws3,3 fc2,(buffer)ff3 or RA 78-125 dmg

I’m new to Tekken (played a bit of 7 but only with friends) and I’m playing a different character every 2-3 days so I know what they do. I was expecting Shaheen to be straightforward and simple, that’s what everybody’s been saying but oh lord he isn’t. Canceling SNK into FC is absolutely needed for combos, duck under highs and access low parry after a stance entry, and get the better pressure game (if you enter stance at +10 you can WS1 for a mid while SNK 1 is a high). Also there’s not much bullshit going around with the stance like Victor/Azucena, and detering/punishing opponents from mashing (especially d1) is HARD with Shaheen.

I actually picked up Shaheen in Tekken 8 as a new character to learn and it was a STRUGGLE. He is a halal character in a game full of haram opponents. Like literally he is too fair and honest in his gameplay. I was getting absolutely WRECKED by people with low combo starters and moves scooping you off the floor multiple times per combo and I watched this hoping you would reveal one to me with this video. People can just stand in neutral and block your whole movelist. You even mentioned how this Tekken took its focus away from counter attacks and the only low starter that I've seen he has is only effective on counter. I actually just loaded it up to check and of course its minus 6 on block. 20 start up frames. I dont even understand the frame stuff like that but for all the scenarios I set up he gets cooked if its blocked. I guess that's kind of standard but this is amongst pretty much all of his strings being blockable by putting the controller down and rolling a spliff. Tekken monsters please tell me I'm just misunderstanding our honourable Akhi Shaheen so I can pick him back up but as of now at my current skill level it's just easier to hellsweep and shoot a laser at a guy.
@sebbbi27 ай бұрын
Low normal hit combo starters are all seeable. Good players duck and launch them on reaction. Only works in low ranks. The only exception is Devil Jin’s hellsweep. Which is unseeable (still launch punishable of course). Counter hit low launchers do exist, but they are much slower than counter hit highs and mids, so it’s not as easy to land a counter hit low.
