You can't skip the fundamentals. (ft. Masayoshi)

"jay-deck-errr!" LMFAO. I think Phi is actually acquainted with JDCR

[@ZCxRaideR]

I have to say, thank you so much for the videos you’ve been doing. Thanks to you I’m finally understanding Tekken and fighting game mechanics and language as a whole. Because of you I’m finally playing Tekken rather than just watching. Finally understanding what I’m doing wrong when playing and actually learning.

[@PhiDX]

Thank you so much for the kind words and generosity!

[@Sicknificant1]

I love how it is like he is sitting on your lap or something bc of the avatars overlay. Gives it Tekken grandfatherly advice vibes.

[@lurtz8656]

Genuinely the best T8 content creation happening now, I love how much support there's been here for new people hopping into Tekken

[@thenewasuka]

His comic avatar overlayed on PhiDX's camera feed, lighting up when speaking and having accurate mouth movements but always the same facial expression no matter how intense the situation, cracks me up 😂😂

[@josiahmillan434]

Watched this video. Proceeded to win 90% of my next matches . Promoted to Raijin in an hour after being hard stuck fujin for weeks.. Game gets so much easier. Wow great video.

[@PhiDX]

What an endorsement 😁

[@Redwill85]

Thanks! Your videos are insanely informative. Ive been a SF player since SF2 and ive always liked and respected Tekken but never fully immersed myself until 8. I actually never donate but for you, I will. Thanks again.

[@PhiDX]

Thank you so much for the generosity!

[@coten]

i love how you're showing folks how to use training mode more effectively! it was fun to hear Masayoshi popping off whenever you showed off something he hadn't tried before, or explained a part of the interface that wasn't clear! now that i think about it, the idea of "recording actions" for the opposing character in a practice setting, and "playing them back" at the player's demand, isn't really possible in many other genres of games. (maybe racing games?) clear demonstrations of how that works, and how powerful these recordings can be for training, would be very helpful for players who are new to fighting games.

[@JPROP-vb7sv]

As a 20-year veteran of Tekken I'll say this. He learns very quick and if he sticks with it, he will become an amazing player.

“Do I have to worry about his lows?” Phi- “no he has to hit a lot unless u get counter hit” *proceeds to get counter hit* 😂😂😂

[@Staff7]

Ya I think that low is busted

[@samsoniteprosser591]

Very fun to watch you pick up on a flaw and workshop it with a less experienced (but talented) player. The lightbulb moment when you explained the guaranteed damage from the red -13 move was also really cool. Also very good to know the general knowledge of lows being unsafe (as always with a few exceptions), that gives me a clear goal for the next few days, punish the lows instead of just blocking them. Props to OfflineTv for stepping outside of their normal games and really embracing the Tekken 8 stuff.

[@Vospi]

These emotions come from a very clear ability of understanding that certain possibilities exist. Good luck to him. Nice.

23:36 the best part of this video is when Masayoshi understands that negative frame data means he can punish! 😃

[@dfloriza]

I love how you can hear the meta unlock in John's mind when he's realizing the practice mode and frame advantage stuff, and you can instantly tell that this alone is going to get him back into grinding the game, because now there's limitless grinding and analysis to be done. He LOVES this stuff

[@Hyphiereactions]

Bro's channel is so underrated this is insane info for free!

[@neorickio]

This was fun as hell to watch. I'm on Red ranks as well, and although I know about these things, it's incredible how I've been neglecting basic fundamentals (and of course, struggling...) Keep it up!

[@nirvana5902]

You are a blessing to all new players. Thank you so much!

[@KaptainKerl]

this is gold in terms of passively absorbing tekken knowledge as a beginner. the chapter marks are so so nice. the mental cheat sheet helps so much. you're doing the lords work 🙏 I'm definitely taking notes rn

[@RuTo94]

I honestly think OfflineTv brought a lot of new players to Tekken and I’m all for it ❤

[@aqueelkadri8371]

It also brought a lot of Tekken players to Offline TV. Like I had 0 knowledge that these people existed before Phi started coaching them.

[@maple.leaves.]

Thanks for explaining so cleanly the function of punishment, and demonstrating some of the deeper tools in practice mode. Excited to put this stuff into practice!

[@KaptainKerl]

This video singlehandedly helped me as a beginner so much

[@hwithap]

I’m at about 30 hours of playtime in ranked and stuff is really starting to click. Love your videos! I literally watch everyone that comes out haha

[@KPNGU]

This was my 1st Tekken i ever played consistently and competively online and I was really starting to struggle a bit in Destroyer and this video gave me so much info that I think I needed. My main problem was my defense and punishing (especially with characters like Lee, Hwoarang, Lili, etc) and the segment with the practice settings exposed so much information I never knew. I'm literally gonna go practice now and hopefully it helps me get over the hump, thank you so much!!

[@LR17-K]

Wow im also on red ranks, sharing the same issues as Masayoshi… This video is so helpful.

[@rampant4l]

this is my first tekken game, currently raijin rn. been self teaching a lot but watching you break down this stuff helps a lot. john’s spacing after some practice could genuinely carry him to purple rank if he improved on it because he has those combos down. besides that i just wanted to say you’re a fucking genius for being able to play all these diff characters and show people how to punish. i was stuck in red rank on hworang for awhile. then i saw you coach OTV playing diff characters and i decided to learn a few and i got all the way to blue rank. keep up the amazing content bro

[@RantallinGames]

It's so cool watching you coach one of them at the level where you can teach a decent amount by playing against him!

[@RiskierGoose340]

At this point PhiDX is like a college professor who puts videos of his lectures online for people to watch.

[@angelsdemons8520]

lol John saw the light , he was so shocked after knowing the fundamentals , ggs boiis , great teacher and great student

[@user-ix7es4iw8b]

Damn the more I watch these tekken coaching videos the more I feel respect for those that make it to blue or higher without coaching. Imagine how strong some of those unknown blue + players would be if they had solid coaching.

[@VermilionGates]

Most helpful channel on KZbin for learning Tekken, thank you

[@Blad3dancer]

Just wanted to say, as a brand new TEKKEN player (im only yellow rank) this video about punish and your controller review were amazing. For that I am subscribing and hoping I get the chance to be coached by you one day. Have a wonderful day!

When he was talking about punishing lows all I hear in my head is Aris yelling "While standing 4! While standing 4!" at some poor Paul player

[@homersimpson5501]

I picked the best time to up my tekken game 😊 thank you

[@VanceWeebin]

7:45 one of your recent videos you said when you backdash and create space people tend to run up and low, unless they’re azucena. I played a Xiayou, did the back dash parry like you showed in example to her, then faced and azu and tried and got blasted for it like you mentioned. 😂 but I’ve ranked up twice in the past two days thank you for the help!!

[@luigiwiiUU]

same with Dragunov and Nina

[@Oren_Plays]

I would kill for a coaching session like this. I feel like I am not making anymore progress and have a really hard time diagnosing how to get through that mental block. There are just some things that I really struggle with that I cannot seem to improve on. Either way love your content. Keep up the great work.

[@TOKYO_SLIME]

LOL it’s always so interesting seeing someone learn how to lab for the first time.

[@bwnnn]

I think we witnessed the birth of a labbing fiend. That said, after he's mastered T8 training mode and leveled up his game, I'd love to see John how learns an older fighting game that doesn't have all of the shiny current gen training mode features.

[@a_shrxydud]

i like to think about advantage frames as being able to act x frames earlier than the opponent. different method but same result. It was great seeing his reaction to learning about frames. I'm new to tekken but ive played a bunch of guilty gear so i know basic stuff

[@majesticm4808]

A Dragunov player asking "is he afk?" In response to jailing his opponent is hilarious lol

[@antoniobanderas5316]

CNS (central nervous system) strain on leverless is very low, especially when compared to pad or even lever. Have tried all of them and leverless absolutely is the best by far as long as you dont play Mishimas. Now, for Mishimas this would not be as straight forward as you loose some control if you want to be fast, but that might be probably doable once gotten used to.

[@davealaya]

Me before match: analyze, neutral game, punish, sidestep, play with dignity and patience. Me, a Feng player, as soon as match starts: TIO!!!!!!

[@lostmarimo]

not punishing properly is a big thing for me to. i got pretty good defense and whiff punishment but it's always with a simple jab or some i dunno low thing. the ws 2 for a launcher just does not work in my brain as the timing is so weird to me. i always press 2 before he is actually rising from crouch :v if i could actually launch on every oppertunity i would rise past red rank i feel.
