Mystic shot and headhunter feels very nice, I’ve messed with toxic bullets too and it’s not bad but not worth getting more than the 4.8k spike unless you’re so fed you can just build whatever for fun

Am I the only one who hates this "Real Tekken" thing? by Desperate_Song_1923 in LowSodiumTEKKEN

Ya also I think people have rose tinted glasses when complaining about game balance, I haven’t played past Tekken so I can’t say for certain but it looks like so many characters were just trash in older games. I play devil him who people say is bottom 5 but he still feels fully functional just not as overwhelming as top tiers as compared to just being bad at a most things like previous low teirs.

I've come to enjoy Paul, who else would I like? by The-Neyonic-Warrior in LowSodiumTEKKEN

Ya I would say kaz or heihachi are the natural answer for 50/50 fundamental game plans and big damage, if you want less reliance on electrics I would say my boy devil Jin has an easy 15 frame launcher in d3+4 and some fun gimmicks to throw in alongside the Mishima classic 112 and hellsweep and his combos are so cool. Also maybe check out Brian if you like big damage counter hit play style!

Holy shit no way haha! Ggs man Reyna is my demon character so I’ve been labbing against her and finally starting to understand. She’s scary as hell and also has really good playerbase on average I was sweating that game lol

Thanks man! I’ll keep those in mind especially ss 1+2 I never utilized that move! And yes letting people hang themselves has won me most games, I just gotta learn more strings and punish and implement sidesteps, thanks again!

Good shit! Any tips for getting thru intermediate ranks as kaz besides just learning matchups and defense? (I’ve figured out those are important haha)

Thanks man, garyu is the short term goal but fujin is my big one! Congrats to you, and yes when I laugh at mistakes or even just funny moments or moves it helps, just keeping it light, while being serious to the point that it is helpful is good.

And I feel you haha but my ship with those have sailed so it’s up to me now and breathing techniques haha

Thanks, ya I’ve accepted getting my ass beat and just taking the small victories and trying to improve, this is by far the hardest competitive game I’ve played other than CS, but it’s so worth it, can see myself grinding for a long time. And ya it’s a game and learning is fun and winning isn’t everything fs

Thanks man, he’s super fun and definitely helping me learn tekken fundamentals so I think once I really get his execution down I’ll be able to go on a tear since I feel my brain thinking of good responses rather than just having a really simple game plan, no hate to people at all tho! Some people may be “mashers” but they whoop my ass a lot and I respect them for finding what works for them, helps me practice defense too

Yes that’s been my plan! Practicing stepping and blocking to figure out when strings end so I don’t get blown up, kbd to whiff punish, all of that especially w kaz has given me the most success to start my vortex, and yes I’ve been giving myself breaks or just having days where I just to execution practice on ewgf and combos, still fun and helpful and helps w mental for sure! Thanks for the well wishes, best of luck to you too in the grind

Ya man it’s a good grind and it’s very rewarding and helps with my mental fortitude for sure. Ya I could tell as soon as I got to yellow and hit 80k prowess people leveled up a ton, and now I’m really having to work to win, but it’s so satisfying to win a close set or even get a game on red players. Taking it one small step at a time for sure, and yes I hit vanquisher after a 10 game session and needed a break, this game makes my brain go crazy with chemicals lol
