How to Play TEKKEN Properly - Decision Making Explained

[@circa2008]

i am a top 1% counter strike player in NA and theres a lot to be said about how hard it is to learn tekken. apply your gameplan, react defensively, all while executing offense flawlessly. I mean fuck man it’s a lot of multitasking. Wish i could just fast forward 5 years so that i could auto pilot at a high level, these guys like anakin know the game so well they do the right thing without thinking that hard. The goal is to get there. Full comfort

[@JustN0tMe]

That's exactly my goal😅 I don't care about winning tournaments, I just want to play at that level

[@BigDaddyWes]

Learn to lose.

[@notgonnapay]

Man, if you think this multitasking is hard, you shoulda tried playing StarCraft back in the day.

[@TkAnakin]

Teach me how to play shooters :)

[@chucklos391]

Dude it takes a few years. This game is mad hard, but so rewarding and satisfying when you get the hang of it. I love the game in all it’s levels. Characters, graphics, different fighting styles, music, using my fightstick, and the seemingly endless complexity of this game.

[@aracystic28]

I’ve dedicated so much to trying to get better at Tekken. I’ve stopped playing my other games. I used to be a shooter!!! Im so obsessed with this damn game!!!!

[@LegitKiller4Life]

Grew up tryharding in Cod and played Tekken casually. Now I only play Tekken and don't really care for shooters haha I tell my friends that being good at Tekken just feels different

[@J3f33]

What rank are you ?

[@sensei_ent]

keep going

[@ChrishinTheLee]

Great video. I think one of the most challenging parts of decision making is understanding the opponents tools and how that will work with your characters tools in certain situations (plus frames, ranges, etc.). This is a good breakdown!

[@burni988]

That stuff is some of the most fun in the game imo, but it requires a lot of knowledge to get there.

[@TkAnakin]

WHOA who’s this guy

[@Scottzone]

This video switched something on in my head and now I understand how I should be "looking" for stuff. Thank you a ton.

[@S1mpski]

i love how chill you are while playing, i hope to be as such one day while playing tekken, like i'm falling asleeep

[@TkAnakin]

Is that a good or bad thing lol

[@versatilelord8893]

@@TkAnakinit’s a great thing bro lol I’m trying to get like how you are. Be in zen mode because tekken in general is just super tilting But I find myself enjoying the game a lot more when I’m actively self aware of errors & focused when I’m not salty

[@mohdzulfadli6276]

I just got my Kazuya to Bushin this week and God it feels so good! Been maining since tekken 6 but tekken 7 got me playing Geese so much.

[@sondertekken]

Small correction anakin: ws4 DSS is +5 on block but if you time DSS f1 (i14) perfectly it will trade with jabs, not really a frame trap. So ws4 DSS actually feels more like +4. The frame data isn't too accurate. So if the DSS f1 trades with a jab, you won't get the heat engage/dash. But trading DSS 2 (another i14 move) with a jab will still net you a combo.

[@TkAnakin]

Super random but useful info haha. The more you know!

[@Shirikatsu]

Thanks Anakin (Anakin)

[@marcindamian7329]

You should go for coaching. You got predisposition for it

[@TkAnakin]

I appreciate that. I enjoy just teaching on my channels and answering people’s questions for free!

[@marcindamian7329]

@TkAnakin you're such an awesome person, Anakin. Its so rare. Cheers from Poland, and all the best for You!

[@bretzubieta8094]

More of this!! I like technical guides, but this style is more relaxed and gives another perspective

[@TheA732]

You make the game look so simple

[@jackholt6860]

9:04 Jin's electric combo does so little damage I get similair damage from doing a simple df2 combo with Clive lol

[@jackholt6860]

Jin's ewgf combo should do more dmg... i get similair dmg from a simple df2 combo on Paul or Clive 8:58

[@MacTyriel]

ive learned a lot, hopefully i can deliver it when i play 😅

[@GodlyEnergyOP]

Subscribed bro content is Golden so far 🔥 finally made it to Tekken King I’m stuck now tho lol

[@No__feelings]

Same lol I just got to emperor but I know it will be short lived 😂

[@Duneadaim]

I don't play much Tekken, but from your intro i see the key is knowing good frames OB, because you wont (USUALLY) get CH or at worst will be jabbed out of your safe-ish OB moves. This is comp Tekken

[@uncleiroh259]

Totally thrashes Lilly back turned opponent with combos and possible tech traps… Anakin: “Dude, what the hell am I doing, hehe”. Had me dying 😆😆😆

[@Hau5test]

Cool to see you play Law. Been doing that myself trying from Garyu to Fujin and I notice as well that I often use match one to test my toolkit to see how the opponent reacts. Are they ducking the second hit of 34,4 n stuff.

[@spenozazockt4260]

In this Speed, No Chance to react to Most skills. Most of them now are more gambling OR Turtle Play for punish only....

[@chucklos391]

Damn Anakin. I wanna play like you. Haha! You ever play Victor? Would love to see your hand at piloting Victor.

[@Geywyg1]

Can u do a video about how to break throws?

[@alexzandermanning6094]

Where do you stream ? I can never catch you . Also, why you never come to 4o4 esports !?

[@ShaolinPhrase187]

I like to think of this game as playing chess for money. Very aggressive and one mistake will cost you a round

[@Nihl3375]

Thank you ❤

[@thepowercouple-te1jn]

I honestly wish you could train me for an hr and a half

[@smoker4188]

the reason i lose is cuz i dont know shit about string everytime i think its my turn i get CH by another hit in the string and die LMAOOOO

[@MoeMunnie023]

anakin getting big.

[@TkAnakin]

It be like that sometimes 🥲

[@jimsface]

No, I miss MY wife

[@nexoknj4427]

Law ws4 is plus?

[@gingersnaps2982]

Yea when he goes into stance off it.

[@tonisnooker]

Anakin where you've been I don't see you in tournaments? Have you retired or something?

[@TkAnakin]

Been losing EARLY that’s all 🥲

[@Washi81]

Imagine not breaking any throws at Tekken King. How carried is this jin.

[@chucklos391]

I only play Quick Match. No Rank whatsoever. I can destroy with my Victor. I can KBD on player one side, some side stepping, good poking game, got the Victor stances for mixups down very good, but I can’t break throws. Refuse to play Rank until I can.

[@ssick3402]

@@chucklos391I play quick match as long as I need to get a 10 winning streak after that I play ranked for one rank up then repeat its very chill and I’m at raijin now but I didn’t play online for like 2 months because of university

[@palim-ux9ry]

Crazy how hard you guys overrate ranks. With a fresh account and around 50% wr all your opponents are basically Bad players. If you play on a sub Character on bushin with like 240k prowess and Solid wibrate you face so much better Player. Thatswhy pure rank judgement is trully useless. Best example are some nonane streamer with theire low prowess blue rank or tekken King Accounts.. You will see some real botlike players.

[@DarnellU]

Rank...does...not... matter

[@KuroYagi124]

Very easy. Especially because of my region i deal with 120 130 ms and 4 bar connections mainly at its best.. also add script users auto duck auto throw breaks.. lag switchers... pluggers.. unfortunately this game is paradise for mentally ill people and lots of em too 🤣🤣

[@QU141.]

I am attracted to Law, sexually. 🤤

[@JohnSmith-uf3yn]

Why aren’t you winning like you was in tekken 7 when jack is better in this game

[@rafaelmarzzano]

Because the game dynamics have changed a lot. Just like Arslan and Knee are also not winning as much as they used to. I think TK7 was more technical. TK8 has a lot of tools to balance matches.

[@kylefields3951]

Jack is NOT better in this Game. Jack's style was much more suited to T7 where both Players Sidestepped less. Even if Jack has some more powerful options, he more often has to hold the opponent's powerful Heat retaliation whereas other characters can Sidestep freely. Jack is Bottom 5 easily IMO. Your ability to Step off the Centre Line to reposition, evade, regain tempo, and scrutinise your opponent's Move Selection is SO important in this entry and Jack cannot do that reliably. It is not only Anakin, but Joey Fury and Joe Crush who are struggling with Jack. Other Top Players from the US are not struggling to make it to Top 16s and Top 8s. It's because Jack is not very well suited to the flow of the Game, and unlike Kuma who is far harder to hit with Lows, does not have any compensating elements that make up for such a huge weakness like Poor Lateral Movement.

[@lycheely]

Jack isn’t better this game in comparison to the rest of the cast. Most pro players rate him middle of the pack

[@TkAnakin]

B cuz I’m noob

[@daro375]

You're thinking so one-dimensionally. Even if Jack is better. EVERYONE ELSE IS BETTER. Jack is a poke heavy character with a huge hitbox and good backdash but every backdash is nerfed.. Even Jack's. And sidestep buffed isn't really helping him but everyone else.
