Very delayed upload from EVO Japan! It finally happened at Red Bull Gaming Sphere in Tokyo, Japan. Thanks to an amazing friend of mine (amazing Jin player herself), she helped me arrange this dream mirror match I've wanted so long vs the player that inspired me to learn and play Devil Jin since I started in Tekken 7. It's been a surreal experience and honor as I've gotten to play the Legendary Qudans and learned alot from our set! Thank you also so much for the acknowledgement as I usually don't expect to win vs long time Mishima players like him. Really glad he came back to compete again and cheering him on as the sole competitive DVJ rep to always look forward to in tournaments. GGs and thank you for the wonderful experience. Hope you guys enjoy my thoughts and breakdown too. Appreciate all the support on my socials as well!

So happy for you!!! Even if you're a "baby" Mishima player, you totally own this! You can only move forward now, cant wait to see you progress even more 🌟💯🥳 lets goooooo

[@Raijinmei]

Still grinding a lot 🫡 but ty very much for the support and encouragement. It hasn’t been easy 🥺

[@deborah.y]

@@Raijinmei I'll always support and encourage a fellow dvj woman player (well, I can't execute 1/5 of the things you do but you get the feeling lmaooo), especially if it's one who competes🍀

[@Raijinmei]

@@deborah.y Ty very much. x3 I'm not always able to join tbh cuz of IRL stuff and doing other things in the community too but ty so much for the support and wishing your well on your journey also on the grind! :)

[@deborah.y]

@@Raijinmei yep, competing can be expensive and time-consuming. Anyway, I'm still very happy to see you slaying it, be it in terms of gameplay, cosplay or designs, nakakakilig✨ Thanks for supporting me back 🥹🥹🥹

[@mrego886]

I knew it was only a matter for you two to have 1v1.

[@Raijinmei]

It finally happened ^-^

[@voltjutsu]

Great games, Jinmei! Qudans is still playing Tekken 7 Devil Jin. IMHO, he needs to change his gameplay if he wants to win in 8 hehe 😅

[@Raijinmei]

Ty very much for dropping by! Tbh, as for how he approaches the game, I can't talk on his behalf since I'm not pro like him, but all I can say as someone also maining the char, it's hard to force "Tekken 8" style either way with DVJ due to the character's nerfs on generics and lack of "T8" tools to compete with the meta as of now. He did start using some other tools later on in the recent tourneys, and he's progressed/had better placings since Evo Japan. The char still does need some QoLs and other things, and the pros don't see him in a good light as of now, honestly he's still is the ONLY player carrying DVJ far in stacked tourneys. Just my take as well. Cheers!

What devil jin tools are you taking about? Is it the mc stance which is high risk (can be jab float, side step or launch punish ) or hs thats high risk/low reward , no oki since everybody who know devil jin already expect this. Devil heat moves thats useless outside combo? The chain thats sidesteppable or duckable leading to long recovery equals dead? The overly nerf fundamentals and heat smash? Whats tools are we talking about?

[@Raijinmei]

​@@axelrossvillarin9505 Anyways some "T8 tools" I kept vague are really more on just "set ups" and sparingly used stuff like the Ferrari tech (pre nerf) he did with MC22, he started using b3 heat dash after this if you've noticed, even more armor, he did weave in u1 more, some db1+2 here and there. But yeah sadly none of them really hold up consistently in higher levels + we're just kinda forced to use these here and there + nerfed fundamental tools we have left. Do note, I can actually list much more about his problems, but may need to make a video about DVJ's state down the line I guess for more clarity.

[@axelrossvillarin9505]

@@Raijinmei thank you for the info. As a devil jin main myself and a long time fanatic(since devil within) im already aware of some devil jin problem and if theres more, i would really appreciate and would gladly tune in if you have the time to make a video of it. I also hope your channel becomes even more popular since its rare to have a devil jin main player such as you. I also hope that you would be one of the big voices that would help change the poor status of devil jin in tekken 8. As things stand now, devil jin players plight and voices of anguish arent heard. To make matters worst we only get nerf after nerf each patch. Devil jins tools just isnt suited for tekken 8 right now + the difficulty and execution just gives no reward. Easy = strong while hard = weak just doesnt make since + the behavior and balance tweak to devil are plain dumb and lazy, ultimately destroying devil jin bit by bit

[@Raijinmei]

@@axelrossvillarin9505 whole heartedly agree and I didn’t want this video to kinda pour out all the grievances, just keeping it positive for now. Tbh judging how my light jab at “the Dvj getting shot every patch meme” turned out on Twitter, it had a few..up in arms comments on how he kinda shouldn’t be buffed/fixed or he’s “ok to be low tier or mid” is going to be a tricky balance to relay the info properly without sounding we want absurd buffs to a character’s base design just not working out in a fundamental level and his current design is at odds atm with T8’s system as seen basically at any level of play honestly. Thank you for sharing and cheers will do my best on the vid. 🙏

14:58 The devs: Oh they track, just not devil jins cuz we hate him 😊🙏

[@Raijinmei]

Oh boi, and then the new patch bout pushback just happened when I reply to this c:

[@Raijinmei]

[@VNSnake1999]
