Which sucks cuz I loved him in Tekken 7 and I think I like him more in Tekken 8. I hope I don’t get sick of seeing him lol

[@allbies]

and reina for the first few weeks until people maybe realise she's more technical than they expected

[@yourmom2974]

allbies I dunno man in t7 kazuya was like the 2nd most popular character in ranked wasn't he? And he is one of the harder characters in that game

[@Beforezzz]

You sure? Mainman likely has the most influence of all Tekken content creators, and frequently pushes Kazuya as the best to ever do it. A large sum of people are now Kaz enthusiasts because of him, not to mention all the Reina simps. The sudden influx of Jins will mostly be the result of newcomers and tier whores.

[@TeryonTheHuman]

He couldn’t even make it through the Jin guide without passive aggressively complaining lmao. Never change TMM

[@kamitenshi3825]

Because the character is broken and takes no skill to play in T8.

[@kamitenshi3825]

@CursedParasyte bro why are they catering to those type of players? Why are we making characters easier and overpowered? I’m just going to play Jin as well, when in Rome…

[@Beforezzz]

@@kamitenshi3825 That goes for nearly every new/dlc character in Tekken 7.

[@_Deez]

​@kamitenshi3825 Because Temken 7 was probably the most profitable in the franchise's history and a lot of changes made in 8 were started in 7. A lot of the newcomers were much simpler and easier than most vets, and while some vets were a little easier, they still retained their difficulty for the most part. Now in 8 they are just going balls to the wall with it because they feel like it worked with 7. I personally don't mind things being easier to execute, but making these god moves that do everything is a little much.

[@SqueakHaki]

​@@jinpachichulo7561Bro the endings are the same as 6 but at least better than the abomination of 7. Fact : Law is the most bullied character out of all in Tekken 8 😭

[@juntao3329]

Just a little bit of anti-tech for Jin now in T8 since well, he is a lab char now. Weird. 123/124/121 - 123/124 is dickjabbable, in T7 this was enough but 121 exists now. You could condition with a dickjab, and when they start doing 121 block it and launch. It sounds better than it is it wont be used a fair amount so the bare minimum is pretty much enough. Otherwise ss duck, and i think the 121 jails in time to be performed before any sidesteps go through so you wont get hit, any delays you'd end up avoiding. Go to the right. Df2 ob - you can CH it up to 12/13f, a high magic 4 wont be evaded by uf2 or ECD1. In general if you see anyone enter breaking step on block, they need to dedicate to it so make sure to use your mid checks, i doubt the new sidestep cancels have been practiced well enough yet. Zen 12df is in the same boat, its largely just a gimmick. The only breaking steps to genuinely worry about are when the hits hit you which is obvious, his brazilian kicks and Zen 3+4 flying HIGH kick. Everything below is where all the real shit kicks in. Zen 4 (flying divekick) - 27/28f, +1 ob in neutral, +5 on wakeup so dont mash. Its very succeptible to sidesteps or siderolls, but if they delay it and time your tech you'll likely be caught with it. This leads into more advanced Jin maneuvres with kajek setups which i think TMM actually has a vid on it. Furthemore Zen 4 is pretty much never guaranteed so make sure you dont get spammed with this. Very linear, very floatable, DONT LET THEM GET AWAY WITH IT. For certain setups, its lopsided but again, you're not gonna see anyone pull kajek setups for a while. F4 into Zen - just wanted to put this out here, if you have a char with a quick poke into low, you'll basically get the best possible counter to his Zen, say a df1 into low which i think Law has, it'll beat everything that comes out since Zen 2 is relatively slow. 214 - backdash/sidestep the final hit if its remotely delayed, the low is reactable please practice this. Bf23f - +2 ob now which is a pretty... stupid change, but the only thing guaranteed technically is Zen df2+3, a high grab. Its better to see which option they do and punish accordingly. Be far more concerned about b3f/b32. Which is alot more effective. Ws13~3 - can be backdashed or sidestepped. Ws132142 - i doubt many people will do this as their go to ws punisher while ws44 exists (mid high) but make sure to duck the low, or if they stop at the mid punches they are unsafe at -13 i think. -13 or -12. D2 - good luck honestly. Theres a red flash low, so if you're used to Kuni and Yoshi you might have a decent time with this. Its relatively weak to sidewalk so use that i suppose. D343/d3,4~4 - low high, duck the high, or if you end up blocking the final mid its -13 iirc. D3,4~4 like df14~4 is unsafe on block. Jin is generally sidewalk right. The breaking step moves are his brazilian kick, f4, df2, b3, Zen 3+4, Zen 12df, ws12 and 31 (high high, duck the jab). Zen u1 - his samsara, 14f and -15 ob. Exclusively use mids to punish as highs might be evaded. Gl hf. I dont think i missed anything. Also ff2 bug range op pls nerf.

[@JW-pu1uk]

1 button electrics for the win. IDGAF if you liked the old school way. Cry more.

[@Alex-Omega]

Its not really a one button electric, considering you need to go into that stance first. And if you do so, the dash takes considerably longer as if you can fire out an electric in neutral

As a newcomer who found your channel via the Bandai channels beginners guide video, Tekken seems so inaccessible i can't understand a thing 😭 Its fascinating though. Think i'll just play arcade quest and take things at my own pace, hope things just gradually start to fall into place.

[@suto9233]

Thats natural for a newbie! Arcade Quest has a great tutorial to help you get comfortable with the games mechanics. And don't be afraid to use the Special Style controls. It's also meant to be a gateway to learning Tekken 8 as well as a way to introduce you to the roster.

[@georgeixvi]

@@suto9233 i've been using special style just to blitz through the story but i'm not exactly sure how it's supposed to be helping me learn, it feels like button mash level 2 haha. either way i'm enjoying my time so far! once the stories over i'll do arcade quest and start the learning grind :)
