just wanna say that getting hitbox advice from one of the best execution players in modern tekken is an absolute blessing. and you speak english better than most people i know. this vid had me learn hitbox in a week or so (i was an avid stick player before), marry me super akouma

[@theelusivememe1772]

How hard was it to korean backdash for you

[@RisingJericho]

I just bought a Hitbox to play Tekken on, and I just want to say this video series has been helping me immensely. Especially since this is my first "arcade stick" and I'm trying to jump right into playing Devil Jin. Those things on top of each other really make it feel like learning an instrument, ngl.

[@roastytoasty8559]

you don't have an arcade stick you have a hitbox. please never refer to a lever less controller as an arcade stick again. hitboxes are not arcade sticks :(

Salut ! Alors tout d’abord merci pour ta super vidéo, t’as vraiment bien expliqué clairement. Mais j’avais quelques questions à te poser : - combien de temps cela t’a pris pour la maîtriser ? Et est ce que tu penses que la transition entre manette et HitBox n’est pas trop difficile ? - concernant la livraison en France, si les frais de port ne sont pas trop élevés et si le colis ne prend pas un temps fou pour arriver ? Encore merci pour cette vidéo et félicitations pour le TGO 🙌

[@thedemoman1813]

Big thumbs up 👍

[@ellanteladar1990]

Legit Tutorial. Thank you for showing me the hitbox movements

[@Zuldarrak]

Very good video! I have done both the dirty backdash and the SOCD version but both versions of them gets me clipped a lot of the time when I am just trying to backdash to keep myself safe. Is this due to poor cancelling or just a general weakness of backdashing or specific to hitbox?

[@Sicknificant1]

My reasoning may not be your answer but I know that some moves on tekken cannot be blocked while in neutral meaning you HAVE to have a back input being recognized by the game for the block to work. Maybe there is a chance you are being clipped by particular moves during neutral frames? If this is the case then yes it is more a problem related to hitbox/mixbox type controllers and methods because a "true" backdash/Korean backdash will have 100% uptime for frames while inputting back. The "shortcuts" usable on mixbox/hitbox type controllers should be able to deal with 95% of the moves on the game but there are some moves that bypass neutral blocks, hitting anyways.

[@r4ng340]

Hey Akouma ! I’m new to Tekken, playing on KBM but modeling after a hit box so I can eventually move to one. I was sort of confused by the dirty back dash. In this video you say to do : back, quarter circle forward, back. I don’t see you pressing forward at all. Do you mean quarter circle back? Roughly 3:45 in the video. Should I learn all the KBD? Or focus on the “optimal” one?

[@SuperAkouma]

Yeah I just meant quarter circle back, sorry 😅 I suggest learning all methods but focusing on the optimal one. The "dirty" one I feel gives you more control over fuzzy guards but it's not optimal

[@antsoswag]

Damn practicing kbd is hurting my wrist lol going to start my practice with it and end with it to get it down but not burn myself out or be in pain lol. Can't wait for t8 this will be first fighting game I take seriously :)

[@El-Burrito]

I find doing jet upper on a hitbox surprisingly difficult because it's so easy to skip neutral when going from forward to back

[@SuperAkouma]

Yeah it took me a while to figure out but once I got trick I could do consistent enough tju

[@Vic-tz3gl]

The qcb movement with Nina, Paul, and Bryan is called a back sway

[@FGCTekken]

Just got a hitbox and man is back dashing hard.

[@SuperAkouma]

It takes time to get the timing down but it will become natural quickly don't worry ^^

[@FGCTekken]

@@SuperAkouma Do you recommend I learn clean backdash or dirty back dash. I want to learn how to wave dash ASAP because I play Mishima's. What would be most beneficial for that. And do you think it's possible to get a fast wave dash like on stick with hitbox with only one hand?

[@SuperAkouma]

@@FGCTekken Yes wavedashing can be done very fast with only one hand without much difficulty. Also I recommend learning both backdashs, SOCD is better but the other one is less effort, I use both depending on the situation but mostly the dirty one

[@gatsuberserk4227]

@@FGCTekken You can press Back tap Forward then with your right thumb tap Up and immediately after tap Forward again. There's a video on the hitbox channel called KBD up method.

[@atsurokihara5525]

Actually serious question. I noticed in this video, you are using your ring finger for button presses and movements (such as for wavedash and 2p backdash). When I try using my ring finger, it is very uncomfortable. is this something that comes with practise? or do you do any stretches or exercises to get the mobility in that ring finger?

[@SuperAkouma]

Practice will get you there but at the beginning stretching can help you last longer and relieve discomfort. It shouldn't take more than a month or two to get used to tho

[@atsurokihara5525]

@@SuperAkouma damn bro! my french brother. a month is nothing, and having that finger dexterity sounds like it would be sick. I will definitely practise more. Good showing @ red bull by the way

[@theelusivememe1772]

Is there any reason to not do the perfect 3 frame backdash ever? Like I noticed you can also start your korean backdash this way by doing back (hold) forward, down, forward, down, repeat. Is that just better than doing regular backdash into korean backdash

[@SuperAkouma]

If you can do the three frame dash consistently then you should do it for sure. It just doesn't add much so I didn't want people to get hung up on that

[@theelusivememe1772]

@@SuperAkouma ah okay thx. I can do it but there are times when my brain is going back and forth on whether to do it or do a regular backdash.

[@theelusivememe1772]

@@SuperAkouma yea I'm new to hitbox so im still building up muscle memory. But I find that I can cancel straight into korean backdash quicker using the 3 frame version.

[@Mcezz606]

@ tekken players .. should you start a KBD with a normal backdash and then go into the KBD? Also is it worth doing the KBD if you're side stepping or should you just do normal backdashes on sidesteps since its already canceling? Thanks.

[@SuperAkouma]

A single backdash can be very effective, it can be used to create a whiff and punish. KBD is more of a way of controling space on the screen, to not let you opponent oppress you. You shouldn't blindly KBD always look at the game state and try to control the pace of the game through movement and pokes

[@tiltednick3625]

12:58 lol 🤣. I also find people that do this kind of stuff on pad pretty impressive

[@pshanetju2598]

[@theelusivememe1772]

Okay so i wondering if I have bad habits. In the video when you do kbd, it looks like you have you pinky and thumb on the left hand resting on the hitbox. This whole time I have had my pinky and thumb raised in a straight position only when i kbd, then once i start comboing my pink and thumb go back down. Does it really matter? I trying to keep my pinky and thumb more planted but I feel kinda chained down now when doing kbd and it is kinda causing me more fatigue in my left hand, but that might be cause im not used to it.

[@SuperAkouma]

I think having my fingers resting on the hitbox is just because showing the input and playaing aren't quite the same. I think I have my pinky raised a little too

[@theelusivememe1772]

Okay cool thx for the input. Starting last night I started lowering my thumb which kinda made my kbd more consistent I think. But my pinky just raises naturally by itself when doing kbd. Its wierd that it does this only when i do kbd but I guess its watever as long as it is comfortable.

I wanna get a hitbox/mixbox but people keep saying it's cheating

[@neonknight5857]

It's not even close to cheating. It's not even really an upgrade. It's a sidegrade. I play on mixbox and main heihachi, I don't think my wavedash will ever be as fast as a stick player's. Learning execution on both sides is an extreme chore, even though the buttons are technically fast. SOCD backdash sucks by the way. It's really slow and impractical compare to the normal version. It's very worth learning to do it the normal way on mixbox and hitbox. tl:dr don't listen to dipshits infected with boomerthink
