Hello PhiDX, I hope you read this comment to the end. Great content as always. Keep up the good work! The problem I always had in T7, which T8 magnifies by a large scale is mainly MU knowledge. I study a character, for example Reina, SW this and that, but the timing is very different in actual match VS practice. The pacing of "flow" between hits/stances/mix ups are extremely fast for me to have a completely contained gameplay VS a specific MU. Even when you get +4 frames and you thing it is your turn, heat burst throws all the frames off of the discussion. How to actually improve your MU knowledge without getting your brains overcooked, while understanding the general gist of the game? Is T8 as mash heavy as I see or am I missing something?

Hi, it's my first time playing tekken, and I play victor, I'm hard stuck Garyu in rank and I don't know if it's just hard to rank up with victor at this level or I just suck. I find victor really cool, i tried to practice other characters but Idk if I should commit the time or just stick with victor, since I'm new, I'm not sure what is the most efficient way to be better in this game. Great video btw, hope you could help. Cheers!

hey phidx!, any tips for unlearning muscle memory of a character / preventing it from interfering when playing a different one. I mained king since tag 2 and have been playing jin so far in T8. I don’t feel jin is the character for me but when i try to play anybody else i’m just hitting jin buttons or trying to do jin combos and it’s really been quite a barrier for me.

Yoo, I’m in a similar situation to you. I played King up until T8 where I switched to Victor. Honestly, it just takes a lot of time. It took me a while to get used to df2 being a launcher instead of a quick mid check lol. Stick to an another character long enough and you’ll stop pressing buttons you associate from another character.

How does one reset to neutral?
they never expect you to stab yourself TWICE
Would really like a review on how the points rewards work in Tekken 8. It really does feel arbitrary, not "similar rank, more points."
Man, Yoshimitsu is so silly.
Might be a silly question but: why are you red/purple rank? Do you just not play ranked a lot? I would've expected a Tekken pro to be at one of the top ranks by now. Not trying to offend or anything, just curious. Also that outro is so clean every time lol

Is it just me or the skill to range level in T8 is the lowest out of past Tekkens?
