This video made me realize 4 things: 1) Tekken truly has an incredibly diverse cast. 2) The Series soundtracks are consistently awesome. 3) The depth of this game is utterly insane 4) You made one fo the best character summaries I have ever witnessed. Incredible work! You earned a sub.

[@katserizawa4122]

That and no one should be allowed to use puns unless you're the news.

[@anyany2021]

This video made me realize 4 things: 1) At first glance, you think Tekken has a truly diverse cast, however, many Tekken characters are simply worse versions of better Tekken characters. 2) Some of the Series soundtracks are better than others. 3) The depth of this game is dependent heavily upon the characters you use and the level you are playing at. For example, at the top levels of play, only around 20% of the move lists and characters are even tournament viable. 4) Arya is absolutely well informed and does his research, but the difficulty rating for each character is somewhat lacking only reflecting one part of ease of use.

Something like this really needs to make it into the game. As a beginner, or an (returning) expert wanting to get to know new characters this type of information, presentation and format is invaluable. It perfectly summarises characters in a bitesize introduction and gives the game/characters so much more depth. It would be nice to play Tekken without having to take to the internet to fill in the gaps, be it moves, character summary, strategy or combos. The potential! This is expertly done. Shame Bamco does not acknowledge. TBS will be missed.

I joke about how it takes months for videos to come out on this channel, but between music selection, script writing/revision, gameplay capture, research, editing, etc. that goes into even little 5 minute segments, I'd be an ungrateful idiot to demand more.

[@wowb1965]

Thank you so much. I just got tekken a couple weeks ago and I’m so lost. I’m between maining Bryan, Kazuya, or sticking with my SF roots as Akuma

[@IKI-KIKI]

Welcome to the community!

[@JustChillinOnThe5thFloor]

Nice touch with the stage music matching the characters. And of course the last song. Been over a decade and its still a banger. Want to do some clothes shopping right now.

[@Harff-_-]

Arya, I will personally see to it that you'll burn a 100 years in hell for every single one of those Bob puns. Love your stuff, keep it up.

[@yoshihuo6911]

I actually bought the game because of this video. I’ve been enjoying it a lot even if I’m not very good at it. Noctis is my main but I’m learning Lili and Julia 😄

[@diceking7469]

That's good to hear if you're new to the game and really trying to learn noctis is one of the best characters

[@Ballerkack]

My fellow casuals saying they have a "main" in any game always makes me lol

[@erijerij214]

AMAZING! I wish I had better words to describe this masterpiece. Please continue to share your knowledge and passion for this game we all love!

[@aguywithalotofopinions412]

These are all really well made and super engaging. The Bob segment had me wheezing

[@Cherry91]

What a blast to watch! Since this is the last video on Tekken 7, I say you guys went out with a bang. Totally worth the wait. Congrats for this amazing work of art. It's obvious you all put your heart and soul into this. I'm eager to see where the channel goes from here. Bravo! Ps: Loved the food references in Bob's section and your hilarious emphasis on the ex syllable in Lee's 😆😆

[@leojimenez5928]

This video just sold me on every single character of a fighting game that came out years ago and that I don't even have. Excellent and timeless job, man.

[@iamtrying2690]

Hot damn. That overview of Dragunov feels like an intimidating force to be reckoned with (Especially the last few lines.) I'm proud siding with this character since Tek5 DR. Dragunov main forever! *Amazing overview of characters, Mr. Blasted Salami!

[@deadmanraging8864]

Dragunov is such a fun character to play he is my main as well. I have some videos of rank matches with Drag on my channel as well.

[@Zk8er35]

Incredible job with this as always, TBS! Very informative for both beginners and experienced players alike. The Tekken community will eternally be grateful for everything you've put out.

[@shawnn33]

This video has so much dedication to the fighting game genre. I just love it

[@ShaunInce123]

Congrats on getting more than 1 million views on the Overview video.

[@misterkeebler]

This was extremely well made. I havent played much T7 since its first year on ps4 and I found myself watching the entire video. I would watch this for character main ideas to start with whenever I get back into it.

[@candasturan4559]

*Things that I loved:* - the fact that you chose Leroy as Leroy's rival because he's the only man who can keep up with his own shenanigans. -I really liked how you left out Leo's pronouns knowing that you'd otherwise have a comment section filled with hundreds of 10 year olds complaining about the "wrong" choice of pronouns - the EXcusite and EXtreme amount of EXcellence in the narration 🤌🏽 Things that were questionable: Xiaoyu at level 5 ? 😂 I have a feeling Mr. Croft must've had very convincing arguments👀 I loved every second of the video though ❤

[@laine1967]

To utilize Lings arsenal in creative and effective way without flowcharting is quite a task!

[@corndog7813]

Seriously thought he's gonna use they/them to settle this after he's tired of repeating leo's name but no hahaha

[@ThatBlastedSalami]

Leroy vs Leroy is an homage to Evo Japan 2020. We actually had Xiaoyu at 5-star difficulty even before consulting Mr. Croft, he just helped with okizeme setups.

[@TheicMoggy]

@@laine1967 I quit Ling at the start of T7 cause it actually gave me a headache. But as my 2nd main in previous Tekkens, sometimes I do feel the itch to play her every now and then

[@ravendelacrux]

Thanks for the character guide, it may be short descriptions but helpful for trying a new character.💚💀👹

[@redthalos]

This video is amazing, takes me back when i just started playing tekken serioysly and watches your character overview for tekken 7. This brings adrenaline and now i wanna play again!

[@DaPhenomAce]

This was an an EXCELLENT video. The Lee portion was really funny at the end.

[@LordRaptor]

I really like the choice of music for Eddy, Hwoarang, Jin, Law, Nina, Paul and Yoshimitsu here, listening to it along with your breakdown of these characters makes me wanna play them more, it's incredible how much personality the Tekken 3 soundtrack added not just to each character, but to Tekken as a whole.

[@robbyalp]

This is beautiful man, never seen something so comprehensive, accurate and helpful. We're lucky to have you

[@RyzingSol]

Very well done on the video! This will definitely help new players to get into Tekken! 👍

[@SweatyChicken1]

The music, the narration, the editing. It's all so beautiful .

[@ZombifiedGuitarist]

Absolutely one of the best fg overview videos ever, especially for Tekken. It really helps me think differently about a lot of characters, as well as the general gameplay of Tekken. Production-wise, everything's great, but I really like the scripting that folds in little references to the characters. It must be tough to remember those bits when dropping so much information already.

[@ThatBlastedSalami]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@abovebelow4061]

It will go down in history the impact your tutorials made, and the outstanding quality for teaching that Harada could only dream of putting together. Thank you so much for your efforts.

[@Lahmeinthehouse]

Congratulations with 1 million views. this is a masterpiece❤

[@FerventFourEyes]

You are an amazingly entertaining writer, i was paying more attention to your wordplay than actually absorbing the info😅 This was well worth the wait, thank you!

[@basuka93]

Can’t imagine the time and work you and everyone who helped out for this put in but I just wanna say this is absolutely amazing, I’m so happy that we have you in this community! Theres just one thing left I need to know.. Did Harada already hire you? 🤣

[@Darko22602]

The way you speak makes every character sound so badass🙌

[@Cell4TR]

Cool video. Very informative

[@ThatBlastedSalami]

Glad it helped

[@jonc8561]

Incredibly well done video. The transitions, music, layout etc, Thank you!

[@ThatBlastedSalami]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@yeah5874]

Bro you really had way too much fun while doing the Bob overview lmao

[@stormeagle]

The production quality is through the roof! The writing, editing and information is exquisite!!

[@NorieagaHDR]

Amazing! Going to watch this tonight. Will you be making any more Tekken 4 and 5 content? I'd love to see character walk throughs for both with your modern day video production quality.

[@TheBoscombesurfreef1]

This is his final video

[@plaguedfrost1753]

@@TheBoscombesurfreef1 where’d you hear that…?

[@oni1261]

This is going to be my first Tekken (even though I'm 29 now, I've always been a Street Fighter guy 😅) I'm sure this video will help me find my go to character, thanks!
