[@maxrichards3881]

I recommend Jin. Players will be using him a lot in story mode, and it’ll be very helpful for them.

[@JetDusk2]

Reina Supremacy.

[@TheNitrop]

I need more of Yoshi!

[@jozeaugust7703]

Bryan Fury, please

[@Illy3Luis]

I'm new to tekken and this video was so absorbable after i learned the layout. and i tell my friends about how i think a guide should be instead of just combos and ignoring how to play neutral in general. That being said A Reina guide would be great.

[@OmnicidalClown1992]

Whenever I get my hands on a Tekken, or Soul Calibur, game, one of the first characters I try out is Yoshimitsu. And when I get my hands on my copy of Tekken 8, once I get out of work, Yoshimitsu will be the first character I'll try out.

[@heroman1322]

I played in training all alone for 4 hours last night with Yoshimitsu! As a new player, he’s a ton of fun and I can’t wait to get deeper into switchups and longer combos!

[@ttv_2toxic-_-595]

I hear that brother, sadly I get out at 3:00am 😭😭😭

[@usmansubhani7482]

Yoshimitsu simple 101 = “Just know the fundamental sword moves then start spamming nonsense.” This is basically the universal guide all guides will tell you.

[@leorevolo7966]

@@usmansubhani7482That or get high on something and let it roll

[@sneakyfatcat]

Once you try him in 8 you won't want to play anyone else

[@Bdash52]

5:59 you dont have to press u1+2 after 3-4 just hold up and it goes into dragonfly!

[@daily-perception]

that's so sick

[@Zachebi]

Good for taunting, not so much up close that way

[@Zachebi]

If you want a funny thing to do up close do his mediate stance and immediately follow up, it dodges a lot of hits up close. Idk the name but its ⬇️34 pretty sure

[@TheSanctusRem]

actually you can do it up close if you spam f2 and then hold down after, its like plus 7 on block​@@Zachebi

[@zackdoom]

@@Zachebiworks well on hit I like to mix the low and teleport behind and then command grab 💀💀 While they try to fix their block they forget the tech works a lot

[@dasderpdood228]

actually a very helpful guide. amazing information on the pokes and normals, as well as showing different routes for combos. Tekken 8's my first tekken game and yoshi's my main, this video helps a lot. hopefully there'll be future videos covering more advanced topics, good job

[@NovaSkiesx]

Yoshimitsu has been so iconic since I was a kid playing Soul Calibur 4. I've always deemed him the most unique fighting character that i've gotten to play. I'm so happy to see people who are new to Tekken wanting to pick him upand learn him. He definitely is hard to master, at least for me. I'm about to be 30 now and he still gets me hyped no matter which fighting game he's in. SC or Tekken, you'll have so much fun with him.

[@darrenpattison7674]

This is the first time I'm really paying attention to Yoshimitsu. He is so awesome in this game. This guide is incredible too. Very clear and I found it quite calming after the stress of trying to master him solo. You've earned a Sub my friend :)

[@MajinBald]

this was the first Yoshi video I've come across that was both simple yet detailed enough to start getting some workable combos going to be able to actually start playing. definitely appreciate that as a newer player.

[@justcallmesage2279]

W vid. I’ve been a Jin main and recently wanted to pick up new characters with Yoshi being on the list. This helped simplify how I viewed the character so I appreciate it. Keep up the dope content🗣️

[@xfearofdarkness]

It is my first tekken and it's great to see a guide on a character I thought looked interesting. Thanks man! I would really like to see king next

[@CrustaceanJames1]

Yoshimitsu is an S Tier character on design alone. Such a creative character who manages to be a badaaa ninja without being edgy and lame. His humor factor os slept on

[@FumetsuGetsu]

Watched you nack in highschool when i picked up MKX, and now here I am watching your Yoshi guide for Tekken 8. I've come full circle. ❤

[@Neo-wc4zg]

as a yoshi main im really impressed! great job on the video!

[@octavianhoward9296]

I don’t even have Tekken 8 yet and I’m so grateful for this!

[@riotron1026]

Thank you for this guide! Haven’t played Tekken in years so giving the meat and potatoes of this character is super useful, can’t wait to start practicing with Yoshi.😁

[@kidvex5741]

Hell yeah been waiting for this

[@MK-Blaks]

This was short but very helpful, thank you brother 🙌🏾🙏🏾

[@VilczekWarr]

thanks so much been waiting for yoshi guide

[@slimeloe]

this is my first tekken and ive been having so much fun with reina and victor so i’m excited to see more of your tutorials maybe we could get a victor guide next 👀

[@SundayReacts]

This is awesome because my two mains have been king and yoshimitsu! Thanks for the guides

[@OmegaR_]

loved yoshi in sc2 when I played as a kid and tried him when I played a bit of tekken 7. He's way too complicated a character a new player should start with but he's just so fun and goofy that I have to learn how to play him properly, this is such a useful guide to start dipping my toes into online and start to think about how to adapt when playing against a specific playstyle

[@simonzhang3D]

SC2 man good old times

[@guyclegg]

I'm this close to wanting to learn every character just to be even better at yoshimitsu

[@Bumbleoka]

Thank you so much for this guide really cool stuff

[@fluffydestroyer8336]

just got home from a tekken 8 launch party thing the local FGC set up at a netcafé, just a bunch of setups and free entry. I don't really play tekken but I have a friend who's super into fighting games. she was labbing her character a lot and figuring stuff out and then I decided to play against her and I just went absolutely ham on that forward 4 and it was glorious

[@owlface2365]

Man, this is such a good straightforward, beginner friendly guide. Thank you so much! I used to love your guides / terrific or terrible series on MK11. They really helped me test characters efficiently and find my playstyle. Please do so on T8, you will get huge amount of views. Do you think you can go with the ones known as easy to start with such as Claudio, Feng or maybe Paul ? I would like to main Bryan some day but I know it's one of the hardest so I'll keep the best for last.

[@mangotheif]

I would appreciate it if you consider doing a follow up and showing off different ways you can carry opponents after using his launch moves

[@davidedezotti2856]

at 6:07 u don t need to press ⬆12 after the [34] animation, just ⬆ is enough. and at 5:25 there s no need to do ↗2, it's enough doing⬆2. by the way this tutorial is toooo awsome e useful thank u very much

[@Bdash52]

u1+2 is different than uf1+2. uf moves yoshi forward where u1+2 he just jumps vertically.

[@markarthcityguardTM]

Just started learning Yoshi this helped me out a lot

[@breakthecode4634]

Yoshimitsu got me into tekken from playing soul calibur 3 back in the day. Crazy to see how much this character has now.

[@acybercena89]

Great video, you shoul do part 2 with all combos 🙏

[@NextElderGod]

Omg thank you I was just starting with Yoshimitsu in T8

[@mrk4510]

Thanks, this is Great. I wouldn't mind learning Bryan the guy your fighting here. He looks pretty cool.

[@HiWill0309]

amazing guide

[@kangweiyan7012]

Keep more Yoshi advanced guide koming😁

[@FlareZero]

Yoshimitsu is fun to play this time around.

[@kanoball3391]

Nice video im trying to learn Yoshimitsu hes pretty hard at the moment for me but i think im going to stick with him.

[@chrisobersteiner3739]

Good Job!

[@psychosid3215]

i just bought the game and thank you for the guid

[@keytwitchyPhD]

I love how we always main the same characters. Good tastes, good tastes. Btw, you don't have to press both punches at the end of 3~4. Just gotta hold up.

[@dardarfisher]

Amazing video, bread n butter and some!!!

[@dedprice3142]

hi. instead of going into the kick after mogi fire fly, you cant get even more damage by: once in mogi (helicopter mode) 2, down input into standing, down 2, 2,

[@diegowsanchez]

nice, I'm going to try this!

[@Sonofironlung]

Additionally on the grab from manji dragonfly you can grab airborne opponents as well if you time it right

[@mwaveyysmusic]

Yoshimitsu is coldddd

[@Urban_Arcade]

Yo great vid! Loving it what were the inputs for the combo at 3:30?

[@sebbyq4064]

Great guide to get started but I'm surprised that yoshimitsu flash didn't get mentioned at all in this video

[@zackdoom]

I’m so glad they made yoshi better I wish they made more sidestep teleport cancels like while rising 1, 1, 3/4 For example b2, kimchi, sidestep teleport cancel just for corner escape and mix opponents mash

[@adamrubino178]

I've always thought Yoshimitsu was one of the coolest Tekken characters since Tekken 3, but I've always avoided playing him because I knew he was complex and I'm not very good at fighting games. I think I'm finally going to give him a try.

[@SemiAI-.-]

Well I guess I’ll play yoshi now 🤘🏼

[@herwandu12]

I'm a begginer to tekken I played 7 but was not so great and played geese howard (I'm a kof/fatal fury fan) I take tekken 8 because the game is cool I decided to main yoshimitsu and your guide is helpful

[@Kiddo_williams]

You should do guides for every character in the game would like em

[@hedgehog1998]

If you have time could you please do a video on this for Reina this video helped me a lot with Yoshimitsu and I want to get better with Reina

[@peter_pan3327]

I’d love to see your button configuration for this game cause there’s a lot of inputs and not enough buttons

[@x9x9x9x9x9]

As a brand new tekken player (aside from playing 2 and 3 as a kid in the 90s and early 2000s) Yoshimitsu is who I want to main. I loved him back then and he seems even cooler now. I kinda wish I gravitated towards an easier character but so far he actually does good for me mostly just mashing.

[@charliericker274]

I get the sense that in this game it doesn't really matter how easy or hard your character is because the hard part is dealing with the other characters and you have to do that no matter what. What I mean to say is every character has a 100 moves and several stances so no matter who you choose you have to start simple and you can do that with yoshimitsu just as easily as any other.

[@JulianRides]

Love the voice of this character it's cool lol

[@Fe6b0lA]

IWTYO when I learned Aris channel was called that because of the yoshi move 😆

[@nihilon_travels295]

Thanks for abrief guide on such a complicated character! is it to much to ask for a written guide? :D Leroy or Alissa or even Kuma nxt? those characters are not so popular, Paul be intresting 2 me aswell, but paul you just can find a ton of vids

[@ChaosPaysoff2016]

The stage that the video opens up with looks super familiar from street fighter. And i'm a mortal combat guy

[@TofuRabbit]

Sick to see you come back to tekken, and Yoshi specifically! Welcome back (:

[@ThePhilterExperience]

nice guide, but I don't get 2:34, what exactly you did different in order for the enemy to fall differently so I can make combo?

[@OmniManEmpire]

yoshimitsu is very easy to play on tekken 8 I will recomend this char

[@dirtbagfromanotherdirtbag]

any notations for the combos at the end? great video! :D

[@axo4383]

@TrueUnderDawgGaming Seems like b2,2 now unpunishable by all 13 frame moves which is huge buff because it's spamable and can only punished now by ducking and launching.

[@rootiez9091]

Yoshi main here I approve 🎉

[@On30utcOme]

Was thinking of maining Yoshimitsu whilst I wait for my main Eddy🤔

[@Godster5177]

Yoshimitsu and jack are my mains

[@staticbb]

Putting the sword away for the combo ender is both optimal AND a flex

[@JoshT4life]

Thanks for the guide. I'm trying to learn yoshi as my 2nd. Appreciated

[@jamiesmithvox]

Down back X X, into square square square square while rising into circle circle circle catches a lot of people off guard for Yoshi too just be careful not to abuse it as it’s punishable once your opponent predicts it

[@MrDrumStikz]

NOTE: df1,4 cannot catch crouchers with the second hit; the string jails. It will, however, catch people who try to press a button after your df1

[@MrDrumStikz]

Also, FC df4 doesn't actually require full crouch. You can just input d,df4 and it will come out instantly.

[@johnathanfludd]

@@MrDrumStikz Does this work for FC 1 unblockable sweep as well?

[@timothydevlin9774]

@@johnathanfluddshouldn’t … but hit the lab and find out!

[@zini726]

Ive found 3, 2, 1+2 to be huge when the sword isn't out. People tend to think its their turn after the 2 and the 1+2 then does huge damage. Not sure if that will still work past red ranks though.

[@user-hp8nk4dm4i]

My day one main. I noticed people suck with him or is absolutely incredible there's no inbetween

[@thadonduke1223]

Amazing video. If you could add Tags/timestamps to jump around the video that'd be awesome :)

[@jenova2916]

No mention about that Yoshimitsu actually heals yellow health (not only chipdamage) in heat if he does a sword attack from hilted stance? Thats a pretty crucial thing to the new Yoshimitsu techs. Like combo 2,2 (hilts sword) into UB 1+2 (sword slash with health regen in heat mode)

[@Tryhardblackguy]

Ive been watching Aris forever, I never knew it was from a Tekken move lol

[@rotemegozi1044]

Should I wait for a sellout or just buy this now(also which edition I should buy?)

[@bryanzki7]

Buy it now definitely. And whatever your budget can afford. As a Tekken fan I'll buy the highest edition I can since they won't release the next Tekken til the next decade

[@elijahsmith8592]

Could you do a king tutorial next?

[@bobbymckeel1034]

I’ve never played fighting games. I bought tekken 8 with my friends. I think this guy looks cool…. I don’t understand what this stuff means at all. My brain just doesn’t thing this fast while fighting someone 😭

[@paulmertens5522]

Stick to it! After a while it will click and you can feel your brain go into a whole different mode. I’m 35 and started only seriously getting into fighting games two years ago. Patience pays of but don’t forget to have fun!

[@Caporai]

Ngl, really wanted Yoshi to have an extension from DGF 3 into 1 from SC6 where he goes into SDGF or KIN F1 into DGF And finally, if in Heat Mode, DGF 1 can extend into Gehosen (DP1)-> Asura Blade (Kin 1+2) -> Yomi Kakenue (FF2+(2) on hit) (from Soul Calibur 6), like a Heat Smash from DGF.

This has been invaluable but im having a hard time using these moves coz i get blasted into combo oblivion as soon as the round starts.

[@TrueUnderDawgGaming]

Crouch less often, and use fast attacks to get your first hit. After that, you can go for slower attacks that start combos or mix-up the opponent 👍

Is he really hard to get into? I like this character 😅

late reply but the spin move is forward crouch 1 and and the other move is down 1+2

[@lostmarimo]

i love sword fighting characters and yoshimitsu is even cooler in t8 when it comes to his actual sword attacks but man the fact that i can't costumize him outside of his full sets without seeing that ugly base suit and helmet he has on... if only they would give him a basic human skin that you can add the normal stuff on like jackets and what not i would absolutely main this gentleman
