Please correct yourself., he was almost about to reset not defeat Atif, plus Atif is the one who sent him into losers bracket by destroying him 2-0 in winners semifinal.

Also kaz is really good with the buffs now so it’s def not much harder than anyone else

​@@NM-rj4gk Lol, keisuke is just a beast ,no other kazuya can do it.

[@alexmatusevich6553]

Keisuke is great, fear the Mishima mains but t8 less fundamental and more chaotic now with heat and hp regen and that's why there is so many close matches and arslan and knee so inconsistent in t8. Damn I want to se more Bryans and Yoshi in top 8 more.

[@soknheith3259]

too bad he choked in the end...

[@hestasnostalgic]

wow Doujin a real Mokujin, used 9 characters in this whole tourney. wish i have that dope memory power

[@shingai5694]

I'd say using that many characters worked against him more than it worked for him. Sure there is the benefit of throwing your opponent off with throwing multiple match ups at them, but there is also the possibility of messing up more because your brain hasn't fully adjusted in a set to properly play that many characters one after the other. There's a reason most top players stick to a main and have a secondary or 2 at most for competitive play. The familiarity is there and they can think and execute more efficiently. Doujin is doing himself a disservice.

[@bobopatchnosuke229]

He qualified for EWC, it clearly didnt matter to him as much​@@shingai5694

[@rickyboiiiii]

​@@shingai5694 I wouldn't say he's doing himself a disservice. It's obvious that Atif and Keisuke were just better players than him. Also he's been using different characters for years now which obviously he's more comfortable with. The fact that he reached top 3 with using 9 different characters should be an accomplishment, not a disservice because I can guarantee you, no one has done that yet.

​@@kugashira1018lets stop acting like Dragonuv is anywhere near as busted in this version of T8 in comparison to the rest of the cast of characters, as Akuma was in T7 in comparison to that cast of characters. Lames like you are the worst. I don't see you or anyone else winning constantly with T7 Akuma or T8 Dragonuv because of them being "busted" smh it comes down to the pilot. Either win with these characters consistently yourself to prove your claims or S,T'F-U and give people their due credit and props.

[@LilShaqi]

​@HumbleHurricane at the top the only difference is some characters are just more viable than others, with each having their own god tier moves yes? Some just have more than others so it is probably more fair then t7

Congrats to CEO T8 2024 Winner Atif Butt. Keisuke was a beast for bringing Kazuya to one of the highest level of gameplay that is something else its fricking cool.

[@HusniArsyah]

Congrats `Atif Butt` for wining the CEO tournaments without any losing, just like `Arslan Ash` in OTB (Italy). 🙂 I think the key for `Atif Butt` here is how he can escape from huge pressure many times, and fight back even in low HP, in several times in tournaments, this is very impressive ! As you see, even `JDCR` using the same Dragunov, he was losing because can`t escape from the pressure. The down side for `Keisuke` that he was doing a big mistakes by dropping combos for several times, just like `Bilal`. So again, this is such insane tournaments by CEO, and again congrats for `Atif Butt` !! 🙂

[@KuroYagi124]

Atiff is spamming sidesteps that's why.. very cheesy

[@HusniArsyah]

@@KuroYagi124 : Aren't other players can do that also? But why they can't like Atif? 😬 Any way, side step has a weakness, which is 'homing attack' and 'homing low attack', i guess you didn't know that right? 😬 And also, if player can read the side steps timing really well, like super sharp eye, and good reading, in the end of side steps, there is a bit 'delay gap', and can easily hit by rage art or quick lauch attack, ops, you didn't know that either... 😬

[@KuroYagi124]

@@HusniArsyah actually i did. But spamming homing attacks is not that effective buddy :)) sidestep block deals with many homing attacks too. Also just because you know it in theory doesn't make dealing with sidesteps even at the highest level as you see from these matches for example. Got it muhamed? 🤣🤣

[@KuroYagi124]

Now as a king main who has worst backdash and not that good of a sidestep because of a large frame plus with no more homing throws. Opponents can easily spam sidesteps right to avoid kings linearity and it's not fair :))

Keisuke really did his thing. I would love to see him again making it as far as he did. To have a mental stack to make it that far was Kaz is insane.
