@@huffee The chain grabs are pure 50/50s, they all look like regular 1+2 throws, so you can only guess right. But throws like Giant swing, Shining wizard and many other single command grabs have very distinct throw animations. You have to visually identify the starting animation and break it that way. You won't be able to break them easily without having played against many Kings, practiced and memorized the animations after many many hours. But you can accelerate the throw break success by simply setting them up in practice mode at random intervals and try to break them.

Nobody can answer that question for you, but like Aris said, this isn't the type of thing where it's that helpful to go into practice mode or use a training tool. Just play. It's way way way more about learning your specific opponent's style and tendencies. Like everything in Tekken, it's a cumulative experience where you simply cannot react to a situation unless you've seen it before and out forth the effort to recognize it. Use the replay system to play your matches against throw spammers again and figure out what they're doing.

Come to think of it, throws in Tekken are a bit like jumping in Street Fighter: a relatively low risk high reward option that just has to be constantly checked for the game to be played at a competent level

Arnis talk about tekken or else

noticed the bum simulator bgm around the 3 min mark 😂

My throw breaking was S+ in tekken 7 and yea the amount of players even in fujin and raijin that can hardly break throws is crazy.

Personally I spent a lot of time in T7 zoning out and breaking throws in training mode, in addition to playing online regularly. It helped me a lot for sure, so I wouldn't discount that sort of practice. As long as you actually play the game as well you'll get used to engaging that part of your brain when you feel a throw coming on.

Takes much more effort and time to learn breaking throws than just throwing them out like a clown king players get carried easily up to ruler ranks maybe even lower blue ranks👏👏

4:43 that music transition was perfect 😂

I'm in a weird grey area where I do break throws, but not by reacting to the hands, I just react to being thrown, and I use the throw break that makes the most sense in context. For example, I mostly break 1+2 in general but especially at the wall with characters that have wall-splatting throws. It works most of the time, but then a character with a complete throw game like Jin will come around and they will start throwing the shit out of me and then I realize I'm a huge fraud. I'm actually surprised how little the average player will try to throw you, even well into Fujin and above. They don't really try that hard to expose me.

@rellbandoo6572

Good tip for controller players/beginners. I play on arcade stick and play multiple characters. I don’t use 1+2 as often on some characters and multi button inputs are easier on stick so I always break them with the 2 buttons. But when I played on controller, I was definitely spamming tf out of Left trigger to break 1+2 lol.

Me coming from street fighter "damn no one wants to take my throws" 😆

"Bin no break having ass chang"

When I started playing Tekken the idea of "just look at the hands to know which button to press to break" was insane to me. Like, how tf is that even possible when you have to pay attention to everything else? I can break on reaction, if that's all there is to it but I sure as hell don't look carefully at which arm is the opponent's character extending first. In T7 it was way easier, and I did break a couple of them (mostly accidentally, though). Now in T8 I broke more of them than I ate. I don't know if that's because everybody's just doing the 1+2 throws or what, but it just kinda works now. Still, I think that the arm thing is ridiculous. I get it, and it does make sense, but it just doesn't seem possible to my puny brain.

@nak3dxsnake

6 ай бұрын

Same. I just try things and hope my read is correct. Same with frame data. I feel the timing rather than commit any frame amount to memory. Almost red rank.

I'll have to disagree on the throw break reward. Playing against characters that have telegraphed 1, 2 or 1+2 throw is fine. It's very easy to break throws once you've practiced breaking them enough. Still, the reward you get is not as good as the reward the opponent gets if they connect. The situation is: 1 - You get not to lose HP; and nothing happens to your opponent; or 2 - You take 40+ damage, and will have to guess the Oki afterwards. It's objectively not a fair trade. Things get even worse against King, who has real grab mix ups that are not telegraphed. King can attempt a GS that looks like a 1+2 throw break, but it's a 1 break. The window is shorter compared to other throws. It's free damage, even if the opponent is able to roll after it, but absurd damage if it hits the wall. And King goes completely unpunished if you break it. Chain throws is a pure guessing game, you either guess one of the 3 options correctly, or you don't. If you are extremely unlucky to guess all the chain wrong, it's more than half your health bar gone. But what do you get if you break it? You just get to continue playing the neutral game. I'm used to breaking throws, I've been doing that consistently for 7+ years. But it's undeniable that the risk/reward, specially for King who has a KNEE hopkick - mind you, is extremelly advantageous for him. If we would to see it from another angle, at least on the King matchup: It's like dealing with a launcher that you'll have to guess - not react, if it's coming mid or low, and it will be safe regardless of where it's hitting. Because the damage of a chain throw is basically the same of a combo or mini-combo. I'm not implying that King, or any other throw for that matter, should be heavily punishable when they are broken. But the advantage for breaking them should be better than it is now for the player who was able to break it. Specially now where throws are way stronger, punishing/becoming unbreakable against power crushes and becoming near impossible to break on CH. I believe that, this way, throws would be a move to throw at a specific time, with a specific goal in mind based on what you've learned from your opponent so far, rather than a cheap way to get a free damage on a lucky bet for no cost or risk. Either way, I advice everybody just to accept what the game is, and go to practice mode. The way I learned breaking throws was recording Dragunov to perform his 3 variations of command grabs, a duckable fast string like b4,3, yet another duckable string like b2,1,3 a fast move that is punishable on block like his df2, and finally a solo snake edge like his db3. I would practice that on a daily basis, and it made my defenses against options like those very consistent.

The whole grab system this game has fails to do what fighting games made a grab for. I wish it was just like Street Fighter, you guess a grab coming then you just hit grab no guessing game outside a grab input and that is it. Grab was meant to break defense and add to the mind game but in tekken grabs are not able to do that. The worst part is if you don't spend weeks learning all the grab motions to be able to react then it will destroy you so it's a scrub killer but useless outside that, except for king because he has forced guessing on a system that still is crap.

In a offline situation I agree with Aris but since more people play online than they do offline these days,throw breaking is actually harder because of the netcode.

Aris yet again with the wisdom 💯🔥

Best tip I can give new players for defense is to learn how to watch the opponent's character AT ALL TIMES. And to be patient and keep things simple. Learn your character's 10 best moves and what you can capitalize off of from block, hit, or counter hit for each of those moves.

Its thanks you sir I learned how to avoid them slightly lol. We must have a match one day .. I want to learn so much more in Tekken

I got godlike throwbreaks by practicing in training mode. Sure ranked is different and there's a lot of factors at play but when someone throws me I break them on autopilot because of muscle memory.

I can't agree with not going into training mode and putting the bot to random throw after block strings. The only reason is because the animations aren't too clear due to camera angles especially. There's nothing like experience in rank, that's where you learn how to look for THE OPPORTUNITIES to be thrown by opponent. You get the habit, after you know what you're looking for in the first place. All I'm saying is it might lead to a little faster progress to see what the throws look like repeatedly in the first place. I could be down bad, but it's hard to see the difference between 1 and 1+2 in a lot of scenarios. 2 is clear as day.

I have to disagree on the "I don't believe in breaking throws in practice mode" part. Sure, when you are in a match there is many factors to consider, practice mode does not emulate that, that's true. But still it helps you with learning to recognize the throws animations, at the end this is pure muscle memory not an active thinking process. Also it's not boring if you do it for 5 mins before a match as a warm-up.

For all of tekke history, I sucked at breaking throws. I decided in SF6 and MK1 to practice breaking through since it's mostly universal. Now in T8 I feel like a God at it.

Saying you shouldn't practice breaking throws in training mode ever is a diservice to new players. Yes it's not the full situation, but it still helps a lot to get training of looking at the hands, just to make your brain and eyes KNOW what it look likes so you can have a basis for it to fall on once you're in the matches. The important part is that it's better to be late than to be wrong about throws, and if you've never even looked at the throws in training mode, you will be wrong just because you don't know what right even is.

Great advice. Lord Aris, please come back to competitive Tekken. I miss the old days when you used to upload your matches.

Tbh most characters only have a 1+2 command grab and most people will abuse those throws because they are slighlty harder to break. If you know this you are already in a good position. King is a whole different story.

Took me like 3 years of just casual playing and never practicing throw breaks to get reliably good at them. It probably is worth labbing King's chain throws though

Guess it’s time to learn

If you can't break throws, it's a 12f high mix up that does around 40 damage on hit and is safe on block. Broken af. If you can break throws, you've eliminated an entire component of your opponent's offense and the only way they get damage is by going for punishable lows. Broken af.
