I personally really like his actual Rage Drive, it's something unique and a breath of fresh air from others that looks all the same. But the reason why it's so bad at the moment is because it shouldn't work alone, you should have a very scary mid option to scare people of ducking, that's why a second RD is so reclaimed by AK players. Knowing that right now you don't even have a really scary mid to mixup out of his wave dash, it feels so unfair. For example his CD4, which make you lost all your momentum if get blocked should launch with the d1,4 pickup to every character CONSISTENTLY (at least to all the males). A change like that alone would make his mixup potential much stronger and the utility of his RD rise. I don't know why Namco is sleeping so hard on AK, it's so frustrating that little changes like this would make this character an actual threat in the right hands. So hard to play and so unique to receive no love, it's a shame.

It would at least be better if the RD itself did like 20+ dmg

TO be honest, one of the things i don't like about AK is his Rage drive... I feel like they could have given him something better... but i dunno... Still Like AK and trying to learn him better.. And your videos help out alot...

Coolest char in the game. Lame RD tho, and I wish he got some better buffs in these patches

Didn't know about the d3+4 Tailspin from air hit! Nice find

Make his df 2 homing and give the ability to delay it. If the 1 from df 2,1 lands for a CH then he gets stomps or a ground throw mix. Make blindside (b1+2) 15 or 16 frames. Give him some kind of mid RD. He needs it and we all know it. Maybe a new close range mid that gives him plus 3-5 on block (kinda like king's chest bump). His multi- throw game is okay but I think he should have another. Maybe one with a 1 break or 1+2 break. Compared to king's multi's, they pale in comparison. King can take away more than half your health away, and sooner of the throws are guaranteed.

And make the close range mid less than 18 frames fast.

What if we got one time 13f mid blue spark dark upper rage drive that requires a real just frame? It would basically be like Steve's rage drive but with a little execution.

I think a fast Dark destroyer rage drive with little less damage to a combo would be cool

the drive itself is bad, but it is even worse because he desn't have a mixup from a crouch dash, its either a mid with 0 range or high. So ofc people will duck it. I still believe his worst move is cd 4, that BS misses point blank most of the times

i am going to stream now hehe

omg imagine they really do it ... next patch ak's new rage drive is a dark upper blue version and ... it is a mid. Omg that would be so sick ... imagine you are in the middle of the combo and you could extend it with a blue dark upper because of the mid value. This move would be then easily one of the best moves in tekken in my opinion. but ... it will not happen ... why should they buff ak when everyone plays him ... and some do really good with him. He is not a dead character and he is a okay ... you see him sometimes in tournament ... they don't have a reason to change anything on him and that is so sad and if they buff him they need to buff king too because they are nearly the same characters and king is already top tier and should not get really buffed right now. So stupid.

Oh no no no, King doesn't need to get buffed along side Armor King, Armor King needs the buffs in order to even compete, Match Up ratio wise, a King player should always trash an AK player, I hardly see representation of Armor King myself, so maybe I'm not looking in the right places, however AK needs better lows for sure, his while standing punish is lack luster, his are alright but don't keep pressure if your opponent knows exactly what they're doing. Armor King needs buffs to things he already has imo, and a new Rage Drive too would just complete the character. If we even get the new rage drive I think Armor King overall would be complete slightly. We just need something that complements AK, and having Unblockable gas that's hard to use in combos is not the way to go about it.

@@ArmorKingTV21 I find it to be a pity that buffed low CH doesn't keep them stunned long enough for a guaranteed throw attempt (that would be pretty hand **even if they can still break**). With how the gas operates, it pretty badly needs to be persistent (much more so than it is at right now) though it feels like making them constantly aware your grab attempts cannot be broken will just encourage them to duck more (though that means unbreakable crouch throws among other things).

It being a zero damage version of the regular mist is a tough sell (even before considering how it has no special input for flames **maybe forcing crouch while dealing light damage**). Just making it Mid would change a lot for it, but you've made the case for High. I've noted before, but just buffing the duration of the unbreakable state (not even exploring the option to change what it does or giving multiple mist types **disable blocking like ki charge, messing with controls, DoT, etc.** to that end) to 30 seconds would be a good boon. Coupled with either a slightly longer hit stun or (more to my liking) not using it up in one use (so a grab chain landed early on is all inescapable once it lands). I don't know that the damage gained from this (buffed version) would be that amazing compared to the utility others get out of their Rage Drives. Better than what we have now (nerfed out of the ability to re-stand wall splats/launches). Just having the 'Dark Upper' (high appeal for being a zero execution version) or iSW variant (also presumably not requiring the execution while gaining the bound) from the boss videos would make for great alternatives (if not extras since it isn't like multiple are unheard of). Having the extra (Blue Spark Upper in this case) to make them afraid to duck would give a better chance to land the thing (though I'd still argue it needs a slight buff in what it is you can get off it and how demanding it is for you to pull it off). Sarincrow suggests a Giant Swing launcher (which more reminds me of the boss suggestion I had with it gaining wall bounce). A low execution Giant Swing with that potential to act (at the wall) like a combo starter has appeal. He also notes a shoulder, but I'd rather he learn from JC and do her low profile shoulder tackle (high crush). If he had King's, a RD version of that may as well be invincible and unblockable (lifting straight from the generic of earlier entries).

Dudeee...because of this I am totally sticking to ak. Idc anymore Thanks for the vid

Sweet!

What bothers me the most about the rage drive is that it's not only slow, but it's a high coming out of CD. All of his CDs are high except for CD4 which is pretty useless. I'd suggest giving him the blue spark upper so people are afraid to duck his CD when he's in rage. It would also work like Kazuya's in being a neat combo extender, and maybe even turn moves like UB1 into a launch again

Armor king needs a buff

AK'e rage drive is unbreakable and escapable.

Turn it into a mid but make it more steppable to balance it. Now you have a real scary wave dash mixup with chain throws and the RD

Why would you do his rage drive in the back? Just do Dark Upper.

Before AK was released, I had an idea where his RD was a poison mist but instead of giving a free grab, his opponent gets ki charged, that way they can’t block for a while. Anyway, what if after a RA he can access his blue spark dark upper? That would be dope

Yeah, I felt like disabling block while the mist was on would be something to work with (during the boss series). At least make the unbreakable effect last longer (long enough to carry the threat if not landing a chain grab with multiple grabs not open to escape once caught by the first one **if you manage to land slow garbage like the generic tackle, you deserve all you can get out of it**). Mist can't even be special input into a flame version with damage, a stronger hit reaction, improved duration, etc. (to reward the execution **already asking too much after you land the mist for too little**).

Is anything guaranteed if this hits like a throw?

I think all characters should have generic rage drive options. Wall splat RD like paul, ground spike RD like king, screw attack RD like miguel, and then their unique RD like ak, jin, lars, etc

its something you only should use when youre applying heavy wavu wavu pressure in their face. otherwise ya, it does have bad range.

Df2 -1 on hit for some unkown reason doesnt really track to his weak side d2 was nerfed frame wise from tag to t7 and if u ask me make cd 1 leave closer on block making it an actuall good pressure tool and change the rd to work off more situations rather then just free post gt or 121 on ch and just give him better tracking thats all he needs if u ask me

Still working on that intro i see.

tbh i have never use ak's ragedrive to how much of a bad execution it takes

Maybe understand it more. I mean, it could prevent the player from escaping AK's grabs that you'd normally would without rage drive.

It just being there when your in rage will make your opponent duck. I usually don't bother with it and use it to empower his crouch dash mids

Just never use the rage drive

Worst RD in the entire game, completely useless as a combo extender since it only makes the combo harder while adding no extra damage to it (and in fact it decreases the combo's damage since it eats up a hit in the combo meter and so the damage scaling on the next hit is increased lol) They didn't improve this RD and they refused to give him another RD, FeelsBadMan.
