A couple of tidbits and stuff: The last hit of 1,2,1 is a CH launcher, though it's not very likely to CH someone in a match qcf+3 launches on CH at tip range instead of going into the attack throw, pick up with WS+4 Shame you didn't mention d/b+2,1,2, it's not a bad string The better way of landing f+3 after S! is to do a dash into f+3+4, which can be made easier by using button buffering. Better f+1+2 combo: exchange the f+2,4 for qcf+2 for 1 more point of damage . This works after any S! launcher (CH (b+1),2, CH (4),4, CH (WS+1),2 and CH (f+3),2). I also prefer doing 4,1 instead of d+4,4 at the end as it gives much better oki for only 2 fewer points of damage. b+3 is a good i14 punish option by the wall WS+1+2 should be mentioned, it has much better range than WS+1,3 Also, absolutely love your music choices in this.

Thank you very much for all this! Yes we really wanted to include an analysis of d/b+2,1,2, but at 18 minutes we were already pushing the time limit for what we're trying to achieve with this series. All this information will certainly be in the complete breakdown though.

Definitely thanks for the feedback! I can fill in a few things here: the full-length guide has a lot of this(I go into 1,2,1 in pretty high detail there for example, b+3 by the wall, etc)-but for short guides like this I admit I struggled trying to figure out what to keep and what to save for the full-length(and this one still pushed almost 18 minutes! compared to Jack.) It was tough to be sure, but I had decided that the more intricate stuff(and more detailed stuff) would be gone into heavier in the big future five-parter(you can see the big guide in the description link at Tekken Zaibatsu.) Generally for combos I was picking simpler staples for a beginner so I didn't go into the total most optimized setups and went more for bang-for-buck BnBs that can get a brand new person started. So it was sorta down to trying to pull the 'keep it simple' method and it was pretty painful figuring what to mention and what to cut, but in hindsight a couple more of these things should have been mentioned. That being said, they will be all mentioned in the giant full length(and then we tend to take more feedback for the big all-in one at the end!) Again thanks for the feedback! Just wanted to go a little into the thought process for trying to figure out what to keep for essentials/save for the big full-length.

A good in-depth analysis for Dragunov. Where have you been all my life?

The tetris music got me weak when it kicked in. Great video btw.

Nice vid!! I would like to share a small tip about dashing in to use f+3 crouch dash cancel to catch your opponent when they had been lauched far from you after a screw move: HOLD DOWN 3 before starting the dash. Since there is no f+3+4 move on Dragunov's move list, the game will allow you to tripple dash avoiding the f,f+3 situations and letting you reach your opponent with the f,3 crouch dash cancel. Example: qcf+1 / f+4,4,3 / 1 / f+3, d/f, u, 1 / f+1+2 S! / (HOLD 3) f,f,f+4 (REALEASE 3) d/f, ws 1+2 Yes, theres is no mistake, you have to hold down 3 and use the 4 instead for the f+3 command. As I mentioned, the game will detect f+3 the same way since there is no move related to this command on Dragu's move list and also prevent the f,f+3 situations if your opponent went too far after the screw move. EDIT: Take a look at LOVELAIN video on his channel and pay attention to move notations on the screen, you'll see what I'm talking about! :D Hope it helps!

Oh man, now I am gonna have to train more against Drag more since everyone on Steam plays him and is gonna see this.

I love that you go into depth with the details in ALL of your videos. I'm impressed and I'm known as a critic amongst my friends lol.

With getting the step kick as a follow up, if you hold 3 after doing your screw move, then dash up and press forward 4, you will always get the step kick. This is button buffering, and it works because dragunov doesn't have a forward anything 3+4 move, so you can literally press forward forward forward 4 while holding 3 to get the stepkick. Just some handy tips to make it easier

a complete break down would have been nice, but this is dope too

Absolutely loved the use of C&C OST.

it's really interesting how most of the SF4 stuff was written down and to be found on eventhubs, while most of the tekken stuff is on youtube. i gave up my search for b&b combos in tekken because i couldn't find anything written down and i was so used to not finding good tutorials on youtube due to my experience with SF4.

Does back 1,2 after WS4 to connect the second combo still work. I've tried this a hundred times and can only complete it off axis after a bd 212

Love the video, but I’m still having trouble hitting that f+3 after S!, I’ve tried using 3+4 or whatever but it still isn’t working. Help please!

You can extend the step in of FF 3 by either inputting FFF 3, for an instant slight extension, or by holding the second or third F input just a second or two. If I'm not mistaken, you can get up to the 3rd step of a run before launching it. It looks just like an incoming WR 2... Until its too late.

thanks for the slowmo running 2's, first time i saw that murderous facial expression he gets before he does it

can someone pls tell me what all of the notaion is, i know F,B,U,D qcb qcf and shit. nut its things like 15 and KND/TFU and the ~ thing. much appreciated ty

my Main character, thanks for the guide !!!

14:55 You don't have to press back and then forward. You can just do fff+3+4(running 3+4) and you'll get f+3. It's much easier than to dash and press back~forward+3. Also you have to press less buttons: fff instead of ffbf, assuming you're using buttons for 1+2, 3+4. If you're not using them, well, you should start. That's a secret TZ Discord tech btw. Come join us if you're not on TZ Discord.

I usually throw iWR2 after the opponent throw a move that gives them 0 to -7. for new players want to practice iWR moves, try doing qcf+2 then iWR2 if it hits, youre doing it correctly.

I thought CD into ws4 after CH wr2 was the staple combo? And d/b 2,1,2 is good wall combo as the last hit hits grounded if delayed slightly for more damage. Also 1,3,2 as a wall combo gives good damage oki too.
