Perhaps at the moment, Victor can carry because nobody knows the matchup, but give it time. Eventually people will stop getting knowledge checked and Victor players will either quit or get hardstuck cuz most Victors below Fujin don't actually know their character and just rely on random bs instead of fundies. (I say this as a Kishin Victor main.)

For me as a former red ranks occupant. The way to get out of red ranks is patience and whiffing and stop some bad habits as in not blocking low stop using wakeup buttons all the time or just stop and lastly use ur spacing and react once u see something punishable and most important Take notice of what ur opponent is doin

Frame traps into throws absolutely destroy red and even purple ranks. One thing I've also noticed is, if someone does a meaty move that looks like it staggers your character, then that is a frame trap. e.g. most wr attacks or paul f1+2.

i don't want to "well actually" but the japanese text in 1:14 is translated incorrectly. "abare" means when you mash (edit: think struggling or flailing around), especially on minus, and "tsubushi" means smashing/crushing, and "abare tsubushi" really means "mash crusher", the actual counter hit you're setting up for when you have frame advantage (yuuri 有利). i'm not actually sure if there's a term for "frame trap" in japanese, mostly just that they just talk about taking advantage and taking your turn.

Now I liked Lidia somehow and bought 7 and a week later in April I bout tekken 7 so have been playing like a month and a couple weeks. I watched your vid I watched PhiDX's vids and practiced a lot but I am around Assialant to Dominator and in quick matches never won (sometimes 1 out of 3) againt raijin Fujin or above people. As I watch vids practice then can be a bit better? Anyways i love your videos. Thanks
