TEKKEN 8 Ranked is Easy

Today in Tekken 8, I have finally reached red rank. Honestly I can go as far to say I may reach purple soon too. I have really leveled up in the past few days. All that's left to do is to master Dragunov

Red Ranks so crazy cause you can 3-0 somebody one match and then get 3-0’d the next two matches

[@TheRealSlickGoku]

Red ranks are literally the average players

[@lemonzest8650]

I heard Garyu and Shinryu really put you through the wringer and then Tenryu gets relatively easier

[@thetrickster4899]

​@@TheRealSlickGokured is actually above average if you look at the bell curve (but is still a low rank for serious players).

[@Vynne96-jg7er]

Oh yeahhh? Like what?

[@Ekim2F94]

Insanely proud Afro. You are exactly right. Now in red ranks to progress you will need to master YOUR character. After red it will then become learning the opponents characters on a deeper level and then movement will be needed for blue. You can do it we are rooting for you brother! Love being apart of the come up. Cant wait to see the tournament Deion and Doto been at it toooo!

[@FreeMovies01]

He earned it fr fr

[@iStayReddy]

Basically the trick is not to focus on launching your opponent, but rather being patient and using your pokes and mixups to confuse the other guy. Mixup your timing, vary your highs, lows, mids and power crushes and when they inevitably make a mistake: you punish with what’s available to you. Sometimes this can be as easy as repeating one or two moves that just work in that fight. Other times, you get to land your full combos. You won’t always win pretty, but you’ll win 😊

The 1st couple mins of the video, I can tell you grew mentally as Tekken player, keep growing 🔥🔥🥋

[@NeloAlchemist]

Here’s a tip with drag. I know especially with tekken, don’t over think it. Know your characters strengths and weaknesses ( Drag is literally a Plus frame generator with his while running 2 and is a pressure god BUT he’s weak to sidestep right) work on his pressure and literally could make it to tenryu. Purple ranks is where it’ll test your fundamentals

[@suvid9490]

This is a good tip, upvote this one

[@Ttyumbra]

So like how sonic fox uses the best option even if the character sucks and makes them better?

[@RizalBoon]

My fundamentals is already challenged on Reds. I'm playing on Asian server though..

[@HijiriBee2nd]

​@@RizalBoonAsia servers breed monsters. Every win here is a struggle tbh

[@gavin8216]

He can be sidestepped but since grabs are tracking and are 12 frames he doesn't have to worry to much, being able to grab out of sneak is wild.

[@ghosttemplar6989]

Afro conquered Elden Ring and now is on his way to doing the same in Tekken could probably beat half the comment section now.

[@xWebdriverTorso]

Man it’s crazy how far you’ve come with this game in such a short amount of time. You gotta remember a lot of these people you’re comparing yourself to have been playing tekken for years. I don’t even think you’ve got two months yet, you’re making rapid progress. Remember that perspective.

[@BasilicanMocha]

I’m so proud of the growth. Ya love to see the boy thrive with knowledge. You’ve come so far man, keep going

[@noobhero7]

My man Afro is beginning to buy in to the true search of self improvement in Tekken8 And I'm ready for all of it.

[@viaticaleye]

You can just tell by the title he's bouta cook crazy in this video

[@superdead4025]

Keep it up bruh, you’ve inspired me to keep up on my training arc on this game. Can’t wait to see you master it frfr 🙏

[@troygoom2251]

I think what you need is a quick 5 to 10 prep lab training mode to get ready to use the combos in your string of matches your about to play, or when your about to play tekken in general. Whenever you go into training mode, you always do better after coming out of it showing us what your trying to go for. Literally you absolutely cooked your way in to red bruh 🔥! Congrats!

[@hongiinsisiengmay9011]

I love this story. Afro getting better and better is fun.

[@broshimagaming2412]

THAT LAST MATCH WAS HYPE!!! 🔥

[@vbwh4t_]

one tip i got for you is usually after a rage art and theyre low health, go for a low. might just be a bryan specific strat ive learned, but trust it helps a ton. can also work after a combo and theyre at low health

[@montelhelem8707]

Gonna keep this in mind when I play too brother, tysm for the tip 💪👑

5:02 The defense here is pretty insane! Afro is really improving a lot

[@NewbPhil]

My goat

[@DespairfulTwin]

I'm glad to see the improvement afro. This is also my first tekken game and I'm doing pretty well but I notice we have a similar problem when it comes to finishing off our opponents. Like if the move or combo doesn't kill I get nervous and I'm like "how are you alive?" So I then nervous and almost (and in some cases I do lose the game) lose the game. And I also need to have better counterattack options. All of this to say we have similar problems but I am glad to see the growth!

[@V-LvMari]

Yo Afro just wanna say thank you because you taught me how to persevere with these uploads every day, no matter how bad or how many times you lose you still keep coming back to this game, i respect the grind brother keep up the hard work🙏

[@stevemolele6902]

🤣🤣🤣Man Afro's commentary is the best part of these videos. that bit at the end "Hard work, hard work. In the lab, in the gym, what do you know about that? Explain to me, you better run, you better run" and "Let's goooooo, Hiyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah" I really felt that one, like bro literally transformed and became Super AfroSenju, well don man, love to see you win.

[@00Clank]

Congats man! Good work! Don't fall apart if you demote. If you made it Red once, then getting it back is inevitable. Keep the focus on that improvement.

[@nobody3207]

don't really watch senju until just recently when he started tekken 8. I will say he's been definitely improving and is really cool to see. While I don't play drag, i know that maybe he can spam b1+2 and db3 more and make his opponents REALLY suffer. Will continue to watch for sure

[@SourMoonBlues]

Also, I'd suggest using the Punishment Training in the training mode, it'll go through the characters most popular moves and will teach you what moves can punish them. It'll also teach you the timing. I had to do that for Kazuya too.

[@chriserrickson3412]

I came from playing mk 1 to tekken, don’t have 8 yet so been practicing on 7, I love it but I gotta say my biggest problem with it is the sheer amount of inputs. As well as there being a move for every single direction in game, took me awhile to get used to it, but now I finally understand why Afros been struggling so hard, tekken is a whole different level of fighting games

[@Chritty999]

@georgejerry1545 I just watched that stream, and Seereax got demoted from Garyu 4 times 💀 and after 4 hours, he hit Garyu again and ended the stream.

[@ResolveRoy]

I feel like a massive step in progression would be integrating sidesteps. Idk if there's like a chart yet, but learning which side to sidestep certain characters will give you those big launch opportunities you want
