TEKKEN 8 Ranked is Easy
Ойындар
Today in Tekken 8, I have finally reached red rank. Honestly I can go as far to say I may reach purple soon too. I have really leveled up in the past few days. All that's left to do is to master Dragunov

Insanely proud Afro. You are exactly right. Now in red ranks to progress you will need to master YOUR character. After red it will then become learning the opponents characters on a deeper level and then movement will be needed for blue. You can do it we are rooting for you brother! Love being apart of the come up. Cant wait to see the tournament Deion and Doto been at it toooo!

Basically the trick is not to focus on launching your opponent, but rather being patient and using your pokes and mixups to confuse the other guy. Mixup your timing, vary your highs, lows, mids and power crushes and when they inevitably make a mistake: you punish with what’s available to you. Sometimes this can be as easy as repeating one or two moves that just work in that fight. Other times, you get to land your full combos. You won’t always win pretty, but you’ll win 😊

Here’s a tip with drag. I know especially with tekken, don’t over think it. Know your characters strengths and weaknesses ( Drag is literally a Plus frame generator with his while running 2 and is a pressure god BUT he’s weak to sidestep right) work on his pressure and literally could make it to tenryu. Purple ranks is where it’ll test your fundamentals

Man it’s crazy how far you’ve come with this game in such a short amount of time. You gotta remember a lot of these people you’re comparing yourself to have been playing tekken for years. I don’t even think you’ve got two months yet, you’re making rapid progress. Remember that perspective.
You can just tell by the title he's bouta cook crazy in this video
YESSSSSS, hearing him say im plus was such a good feeling HES LEARNING
Afro edged us with the VS Seereax upload
My man Afro is beginning to buy in to the true search of self improvement in Tekken8 And I'm ready for all of it.
THAT LAST MATCH WAS HYPE!!! 🔥
I’m so proud of the growth. Ya love to see the boy thrive with knowledge. You’ve come so far man, keep going
I'm glad to see the improvement afro. This is also my first tekken game and I'm doing pretty well but I notice we have a similar problem when it comes to finishing off our opponents. Like if the move or combo doesn't kill I get nervous and I'm like "how are you alive?" So I then nervous and almost (and in some cases I do lose the game) lose the game. And I also need to have better counterattack options. All of this to say we have similar problems but I am glad to see the growth!
I think what you need is a quick 5 to 10 prep lab training mode to get ready to use the combos in your string of matches your about to play, or when your about to play tekken in general. Whenever you go into training mode, you always do better after coming out of it showing us what your trying to go for. Literally you absolutely cooked your way in to red bruh 🔥! Congrats!
Keep it up bruh, you’ve inspired me to keep up on my training arc on this game. Can’t wait to see you master it frfr 🙏
5:02 The defense here is pretty insane! Afro is really improving a lot
Ah love to see the dunning-kreuger curve start hitting a humility point. A moment of awareness :D Keep the good work up Senju! Mastery doesn't come easy, and you're well on your way.
one tip i got for you is usually after a rage art and theyre low health, go for a low. might just be a bryan specific strat ive learned, but trust it helps a ton. can also work after a combo and theyre at low health

Proud of you Afro!
We out here grinding let keep er going ✊
Yo Afro just wanna say thank you because you taught me how to persevere with these uploads every day, no matter how bad or how many times you lose you still keep coming back to this game, i respect the grind brother keep up the hard work🙏
im actually happy to see you’re improving. take it from someone whose been a back and forth eliminator/garyu, red ranks are hard for people new to the game but you learn better than me.
Rootng for you dude! Seeing how you have progressed is amazing! GGs
the turn around has been insane
you going crazy with the videos, i love to see it. Keep grinding
My goat
This is wild good job Afro the progress is coming along crazy very surprised you reach red so quickly too I guess keep it up your potential is now showing
Gotta get your clutch up Afro. U be doing so good in the beginning
Also, I'd suggest using the Punishment Training in the training mode, it'll go through the characters most popular moves and will teach you what moves can punish them. It'll also teach you the timing. I had to do that for Kazuya too.
Another great vid brother👏🏽thank you for giving me a pleasant start to the day🙏🏽
I feel like a massive step in progression would be integrating sidesteps. Idk if there's like a chart yet, but learning which side to sidestep certain characters will give you those big launch opportunities you want

Can't wait for the RDC rematch
I came from playing mk 1 to tekken, don’t have 8 yet so been practicing on 7, I love it but I gotta say my biggest problem with it is the sheer amount of inputs. As well as there being a move for every single direction in game, took me awhile to get used to it, but now I finally understand why Afros been struggling so hard, tekken is a whole different level of fighting games
huge improvement tbh well done, keep it up
Congats man! Good work! Don't fall apart if you demote. If you made it Red once, then getting it back is inevitable. Keep the focus on that improvement.
don't really watch senju until just recently when he started tekken 8. I will say he's been definitely improving and is really cool to see. While I don't play drag, i know that maybe he can spam b1+2 and db3 more and make his opponents REALLY suffer. Will continue to watch for sure
So satisfying to see when u pull off those combos
Good shi Afro, you and Lotus my inspiration to even play this game
🤣🤣🤣Man Afro's commentary is the best part of these videos. that bit at the end "Hard work, hard work. In the lab, in the gym, what do you know about that? Explain to me, you better run, you better run" and "Let's goooooo, Hiyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah" I really felt that one, like bro literally transformed and became Super AfroSenju, well don man, love to see you win.
Not only did he defeat that last player but also cut off his 4 winning streak against his 1. that's a lot of improvement
I love the commentary u just gained a sub
It’s really good to see how far you’ve come in such a short time

Good shit my guy, i feel like the next thing you should work on is getting combos off of counterhits and learning some frame traps 👌🏿
Congrats. I went from strategist to mighty ruler last night in about 3 hours. Did it while I was drunk streaming on twitch. Felt good.
That point u keep dropping ur combo at get in the lab and see if u can get a dash in to make sure u confirm that elbow
I’m pretty sure you can combo from “counter hits” too I usually check all the moves that activate the counter hit so If I land one I know I can combo off of it

@@Ttyumbra I think Afro just really hates losing, to the point that it's selling him. "Labbing" is when you spend some time learning basics, combos, etc. But that's only 10% of the game. You have to actually crank up the computer sparring partner and fight against it. That's the other 90% of a fighting game. To do it "right" , you turn it up to the hardest setting and fight. Then, decrease the difficulty until you find where you are. After that, fight until you can increase the difficulty again. Basically, just repeat that process and you'll get better. The issue is.... I can understand now, knowing a bit more about Afro, why he's reluctant to do so. I think he feels it will leave him unmotivated. I genuinely think he just doesn't want to drop the game if that happens. And that's where the real problem lies. You just can't get better at a fighting game if you throw a rager every time you get hit or lose. The only real way to get better is to analyze what you did wrong and try to do it better. That's what the lab is for, a place where you can do that without all the feelings that come with online matches but.... I honestly don't think he's even using the computer sparring at this point. Idk, I can just tell as someone who's done it - if he had, I think he'd be way better than he is now fr.

@@ren_lightfoot that's not how you lab, no good player uses the computer to practice because it's nothing like a real player. once you learn your combos and the basics you're nowhere close to being done with labbing. every time you run into a move you don't know about or a situation you want to find out about, you go straight to practice mode, find that move or set up that situation as a recording, and figure out the answer. you can also do it in the recording with the replay takeover feature. if you do it a lot, you will be in the lab between games figuring out what you just faced and pretty much every game will be an improvement for you. at higher ranks labbing is at least 50% of tekken, probably more
I played afro on his road to red and I’m mad to say what he said in the beginning is stupid true. I didn’t understand my character (Lee) at the time but feel hella better about how he fights now. Also NEVER fought a dragunov until then lol
You are looking…Strong ⚡️💪🏾
Bro it’s crazy we started tekken 8 the same way, Practically at the same time. I’m at vanquisher for Dragonuv but ready to switch it up.
My guy this 🔥
I think it might be best you master Dragonov. Afterwards you’ll know how to bob and weave with any character and have a better idea for other characters from understanding the basis of the game
I'm very proud of you Afro.
This is motivating I’m one away from red too and I want it soooooo bad!
Also try doing a combo out of counter hits which could be helpful for you since dragonuv has a lot of moves that could go for a counter hit and also try to lessen doing ults when your health bar is very low and go for counter hits or lows or grabs. take your time. ya doin great.
