thank you for the work! Great to reference these times whenever I comeback to the vid

[@Sporkyz74]

I know this guide has been out for a bit, but I wanted to thank you for going through the effort of actually scripting and organizing this video. So many character guides are just people vaguely rambling about a character's strengths and weaknesses, but it's clear you went out of your way and put in extra effort so that the guide was structured and easy to follow. Big ups, man.

[@CalebAdams]

I've seen A LOT of guides for several different characters in T8, and this was by far one of the best I've seen more any character. The way it was organized, to the point, while still remaining incredibly insightful. Really great job! Excited to learn Bryan, and this will be a huge help.

[@nunosox]

Thank you

[@Trigun_Bebop]

Thanks! Sorry if you say it later in the video as I'm not done watching, But what makes bryan high execution besides taunt? I think i want to main him and just trying to figure out what im getting into it. I know I can wait to learn taunt set ups. Just trying to see if I'm going to run into trouble early on.

[@tytk]

@@Trigun_Bebop In general his combos are more demanding than other characters to get good damage, but they're very rewarding in terms of the dmg. Lots of qcb/qcf inputs in neutral, and the requirement of learning a proper kbd. obvi, those last 2 are not truly *difficult* but they add to his overall execution in the neutral and make it a bit more demanding to be consistent than the average character.

[@Trigun_Bebop]

@@tytk @tytk oh that's no biggy! Thank you. All I hear is that he's high execution and never really hear why besides taunt jet upper. So that's helpful. Well thanks! Between your video and your response I'm definitely going to be playing him. This video was really well made and helps me understand the why's of everything. Thank you.

[@loganmcgee18]

It's more than just combos being difficult, lots of characters have difficult execution iin their combos, so that isn't why Bryan is usually labled as the hardest if not one of the hardest characters. @@Trigun_Bebop It comes from Bryans toolset compared to the rest of the cast. For example, DF1 is the button in tekken used to check your opponent. as they are usually your fastest and safest mid, that tend to have followup strings with their own unique answers. Bryan doesnt have that. Bryans DF1 is machine gun blow, which has a built in mixup depending on how many you do/dont do. But also confirmable for HUGE damage. edit: to clarify, huge damage in comparison to like what victor gets off a df1 on hit. or most og the cast for that matter, usually they just get the single hit. unless its a CH. Bryan gets 34 damage and is +1... Bryan doesnt have a generic DF2 like the rest of the cast. most DF2 and their followups, are 15f natural launchers, and usually a characters fastest natural launcher and basic whiff punish... Bryans DF2? Bryans DF2 is more like other characters DF1. So does that mean Bryan doesnt get a mid 15f launcher? Correct. What he DOES get tho is a 14f mid launcher on block(very rare to have and a bonus) in Jet upper. Due to Jet Upper input being F,N,B+2 , even tho it has 14f startup, the fastest it comes out in the neutral will be 16f, in reality closer to 17f. Remember forward being input then released(to get neutral) requires 2f alone, then you need at least 1f of Neutral, and then 1f for b+2. *Every other character just has to hit one button to get a faster launcher* . Bryan has this kinda thing ALL OVER his move list, hopefully you are starting to see why Bryan is considered so difficult to pilot, and it is definitely not just because he has hard combos. tl:dr: he is labled hard to play by Tekkenheads, because he was one of the few characters where tekken fundamentals and universal mechanics/concepts cant be carried over to Bryan 1:1. As you learn Tekken you find characters generally have the same things just with their own kinda of flair on them. This df1 is faster, this one has a CH launch followup, etc. But they are all 13f safe mids with good tracking - NOT BRYAN lel. You can't just *hop on bryan and have fun* just because you know how to play tekken, unless youre an actual bryan player. But you can just kinda hop around the cast if you DO play tekken. Thats why you will see normally someone either plays bryan or doesnt lol

[@snaxmiller]

BRO. This video is huge. I played 7 very casually with friends but am actually looking to go online on 8 and actually learn. I chose Bryan because he seemed sick and I'm excited to really dig in even if he isn't exactly a traditional Tekken character. Thanks man.

[@tytk]

Thank you for the support, bro!

Excellent guide mr ty! This guide will go down as an ESSENTIAL watch for any bryan player. Really like hearing great bryan players talk about how best to use his tools, hopefully theres some more content like this down the line!!

Good info even for a long time Bryan main like me...there some remarkable changes for Bryan from T7 and they are for the best as I see...

[@doritosempire9952]

Was waiting for it thanks mate :D i was fujin in t7 after 1 year and im looking to be a strong bryan in t8 so watching your guides always helps a lot

[@makogiron]

I haven't played teeken since the gba and early ones. Now I'm jumping into tekken 8 and as well practicing on the psp one. I picked up Bryan aside from Marshall law. I didn't realize he was a very difficult character 😅😅😅 but man is it fun to be on the wild offensive. Thank you for the guide.

[@zz8az]

im brand new to tekken and this will be my first dive into a truly high execution character, you were very correct that I was gonna ignore your advice and still taunt all over the place lol

Thank you Bryan goat

I'm a fairly experienced Bryan player with a few hundred hours in T7, but this was a great summary of some of the changes to him in 8. Very well done!!

[@Annihilation99]

Man ty thank you so much for this vid. I feel lost with bryan now in T8 execution seems to have gotten a bit easier but man online play is rough now constantly running in to Victor and Azucena.

[@Prod_Tyis]

I'm saving this video this is exactly what I needed especially the punishment part of the video 🎉

[@24cORe24]

Just thank you. This is my first Tekken and this Guide is very helpful to me. Love Bryan so far.

[@bobbyadamson2333]

I have always played easy characters but I wanted to learn Bryan for this game. This guide is amazing. Thank you so much man

[@ParkourGrip]

The reason double taunt tracks better is that the move realigns itself every time you input it. Actually in T7 you had to do tripple taunt to ensure that it would always hit reliably, however double taunt would work for most situations.

[@mjxprime]

The snake eyes mechanic is very new to me. All my years of playing Bryan since T3, kinda game-changing for the character. But I respectfully agree with the analysis of the character that you put in. All effort and it’s amazing. 💯 keep up the good content

[@hashdolo854]

Was deadass hoping earlier that you’d drop one of these

[@OurLadyOfSlime]

New Tekken player trying to get to grips with Bryan and this is super helpful for me. I really appreciate how much you talk about the practical, functional role of the various bits of Bryan's kit. I'm gonna be rewatching this for a while trying to internalize all of this but thank you already for a great guide.

You the man bruh i got to warrior with him on day one/two but noticed once i got to better opponents i couldn’t be all up in there grill like before. I now know he needs to play it at certain distances and i being overly aggressive looking for “juggles” rather than utilizing his strengths and pokes and checks you rock

[@stanmarsh7038]

He can't spam juggles?

[@aizensa9708]

Thanks for this man, T8 is my first real tekken experience (only have like 30 hours in t7), played Paul and now trying Bryan cos he looks so brutal. Counterhit 3+4 is a god button but I've been struggling with fast punishes due to not knowing a lot of his moveset, amped to watch the vid!

[@WickdUser]

Awesome Bryan tutorial. All of my questions with Bryan are answered. ❤

[@Omnigear]

I love this character, thank you so much for the guide.

Thank you for watching!

[@Sicknificant1]

This could be something on my end, but I have my volume jacked and you are very quiet when speaking. Thankfully I can still hear it though, and the info/video is very good! Learning Bryan now. I was basically hard stuck at Eternal ruler/Fujian, bouncing between purple and teal ranks on T7 with Hwoarang/Alisa/Yoshimitsu. Bryan looks so cool on T8 now and I really want to play him. Still haven't done anything more than go through his movelist and watch like all your recent gameplay videos. Thanks for your efforts!!!

[@Nawwll]

Extremely good and easy to follow guide. Thanks, amigo!

[@tytk]

I'm glad it was helpful, bro.

[@MegaPacoquinha]

Excelent guide your explanation was really in depth while remaining concise! Learnt a ton

[@Crook4Money]

I've been maining Bryan since around 2016 and realized I have no idea what I'm doing with this character. This is the first video that went into such detail about frames and poking I actually got out of hard stuck eliminator rank. I think I had the pokes down a few years ago, but I completely lost all understanding and fundamentals and went with one dimensional pressure till I watched this. Somehow improved my poor defense a bit as well.

[@LilFi5ty416]

Loved the guide I’m a new Bryan player I was previously a Jin main . I’m making the switch cuz Bryan seems cool asf in 8 . I would like to take Bryan to my first tournament in March and I think this guide will help it was very informative and in depth I love it

Thank you so much for this really well structured guide. Always helps to focus on a few strategies that are most effective first. I have one question about buffering the taunt. At 28:50 how do you hold down 3+4 without throwing out the move right there? I understand that you can buffer it while recovering from an animation, but looks like you are just standing there. Looking forward to more of your videos!

[@tytk]

I was holding down 3+4 while I restarted practice mode, so it kept my input

Is there any problem in binding taunt as 1+3+4 instead of 3+4 and input 1 manually? Will i be able to do double taunt with 1+3+4 bind? Great video btw, helped a ton!
