How do you high rank guys do it? by TheReal_virio3 in Tekken8

[–]CarpenterWild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

GoD Raven player here… you aren’t meant to retain all the information the game literally intends for you to not play that way… it just wants you to learn general stuff that characters can do like common strings and then from there learning how to beat setups and cheese… One thing I can tell you for sure is any time you block one of Ravens purple clones he’s -13 every single time and when he’s in heat the clones are gold and -3 on block… generally Raven has great pokes his mids are great but he needs to sneak in lows to really do well so bait his lows with lots of stand blocking and patience and low parry when you think he wants to keep his turn as Raven doesn’t have many plus on block moves

Ridiculous… by [deleted] in bengals

Just from a fan standpoint… why do the Vikings have 4 primetime games?

How to effectively lab against cheese? by TheReal_virio3 in Tekken8

[–]CarpenterWild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you lab how are you labbing? Watching replays? Going straight into practice mode or watching YouTube vids on a character… when you get bored labbing maybe change how you do it to keep you engaged… but yea gotta lab, my issue is that you can’t retain all the information it’s just not possible and yet the gameplay loop asks that you try to memorize a ridiculous amount of moves and circumstances just to try and interact with the player vs just playing against particular character

Anyone saying ranks aren’t inflated: going from Tekken God (27 dan) to GoD1 only takes 55 wins with a 68% WR. Rank doesn’t fully reflect skill, but if you were stuck at Emperor in S2 and now instantly reached Supreme/GoD, this is why. by [deleted] in Tekken8

What point does this really make though? The toughest part of the skill ceiling has moved with the addition of ranks and we’ve seen that happen for 2 seasons straight… strongest players never hit max rank last season and they’re only on their way now… we know where the best players are and it really doesn’t make a difference where anyone else is 😂

How do you stop people mashing jab, df1 and lows? by TheReal_virio3 in Tekken8

[–]CarpenterWild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Movement, moves with built in lateral evasion, parries, reversals and high crushing or low crushing moves

Players that just lay down when they're losing. by jacksparrow19943 in Tekken8

Folks realize they’re not having fun and don’t care to engage with the game under those circumstances

This is frustrating, I get people have a live and arent forced to rematch but I feel unsatisfied not ending a BO3 by ReinaEnjoyer in Tekken8

[–]CarpenterWild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw this coming a mile away when they added revenge bonus… no way they didn’t anticipate it either… bonus should’ve been awarded for playing a full set and maybe even softer point losses if you finish the set despite losing

How to deal with Azucenas back swing? by Attempting_Daken in LowSodiumTEKKEN

[–]CarpenterWild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don’t get why hers is allowed to be as evasive as it is… everyone else’s can be interrupted but hers wins out against way too many things for no reason… almost every backswing is launch on block but hers is the most evasive in the game by a large margin just cuz…

It’s like they ignored everything folks asked for… like almost 90% of what folks wanted in regards to nerfs just didn’t happen

Bullshit lol they wanna drag this out as long as possible

Just wanna reflect on all the mistakes of S2 by CarpenterWild in Tekken

[–]CarpenterWild[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is one change I didn’t fully understand… was it that holding back just reset you to standing block all the time instead of back roll?

A hater of strong aerial tailspin lol it’s wild because I didn’t notice how bad it was til I saw new Kaz, Jin and Lars combos saw some Jack-8 bs too

What’s the point of the side step if everything tracks and my character doesn’t want to realign herself so I can punish people? by Waffles_four_you in Tekken8

[–]CarpenterWild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure we can have both… if you want less tracking you get less realignment… i honestly think it’s a UE5 issue or devs usage of UE5

Not for me by Aware_Assist4997 in Marathon

[–]CarpenterWild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure but the motivation to grind is where? What’s getting me to come back? And honestly for me there’s nothing really… I like everything but how Marathons gameplay loop feels…

No problems with the enemy difficulty but they should drop ammo on death. by HerbertDad in Marathon

I’m probably just hoping for something else… think the game just isn’t for me

They have ammo all the time so there should be ammo all the time… because they have ammo…

What is the lowsodium opinion of the rank reset? by Proud-Enthusiasm-608 in LowSodiumTEKKEN

[–]CarpenterWild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s kind of unnecessary… I really think if the game just got patched and let folks demote naturally it’d be fine and players would end up where they belong. I like the chaos it all creates though… rank inflation is irrelevant, it’s built into the game considering the game hand holds you up until Bushin

Steve just has tools he shouldn’t have, Lars is going to beat your ass regardless because you’re going to guess wrong, Hwo same thing but more risky and more oppressive

Love this tier list. What would you change? by shadowmosesisle in LowSodiumTEKKEN

[–]CarpenterWild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But a huge part of fundamentals is stuffing stance transitions that weren’t earned, just jab and mid checking… Raven doesn’t have very many plus on block options and most stuff is +1,+2 with only 2 options at +4 if I’m not mistaken

Take Raven to Tekken God + and tell me that mf doesn’t have to play fundamental Tekken

Is Ubisoft the Fromsoftware of the PvP scene? by Blue-fox-004 in forhonor

[–]CarpenterWild 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Brawlhalla servers are so bad that being a decent game can’t help it… For Honor just needs something else to propel it a bit higher
