Learn THIS to Help You Improve FAST in TEKKEN 8

Came across this on my recommended right after a stressful lab sesh. The only thing that really frustrates me is my own stupid mistakes that made me lose. I really needed to see this bro, thank you

You really know what your talking about man, I'm feeling the same way when playing TEKKEN8, solid video my brother, keep up the good work my dude!!!

This video came on a right time I almost broke my headset an hour ago lol. I’ve been trying to apply this mindset for almost half a year now ever since Tekken 7 but Tekken 8 distracted me from that for whatever reason. But nonetheless I believe this mindset is actually really good for improving for instance I always used to get 0-2’d in tournaments but after some time I can actually win one or two sets in some recent ones. Sure it’s not Top 8 or Top 16 even but it’s great to see that I’ve improved from what a scrub I used to be. I’ve always wanted to become a tournament player and that ambition might seem stupid or silly as I’m not as gifted as others but I’m willing to try to get into that screen. Anyway appreciate the video lad keep working on it you got a new fan.

I'm really glad I could have that much of an impact on you man. Seriously. You've grown exponentially ever since. I'm proud of you my guy.

How you do anything is how you do everything. Call it the first and last rule of Life. Keep evolving!

this is dope to hear as Im exploring the journey of streaming and connecting in the fcg

Nice video! One of my mentors told me, “You either win, or you learn”. Since starting fighting games, this quote always runs through my head and motivates me to watch replays, lab etc. and has helped me learn relatively fast imo

"They understand why they lost." This. This right here is why I struggled for so long with rage and getting heated any time I played a fighting game. I love them but often times the games do not teach players enough for them to be able to understand what it is they are doing wrong. This is unfortunately the reality for most players in most games. Most games are completely unintuitive and have very poor learning systems. This was my main struggle in Tekken 7. I loved it but I often lost my cool because I couldn't understand what it is I was doing wrong or what I could be doing better and the game did not at all help me to understand. I have never been a rage quitter but it has always ruined my enjoyment over time. With the replay feature in Tekken 8 I can finally have a better experience learning and growing.

When fighting games started to have LONG combos , its really hard not want to get the hell off the game watching a mini cutscene eviscerate your health.

Ever since I brought Tekken 8 I had one goal in mind, which was try to beat my previous highest rank in Tekken 7 (which was orange rank) and before that was Tag 2 with green. I managed to beat my record, but now im hard stuck in purple ranks. I have the mindset to know what my weakness are and what is happening in the game that will lead me to a loss, which leads me down a spiral of "Maybe i am trash with the character and ill never be good enough to climb" which is unfair way of thinking. It doesnt help me in the slightest and if anything it desmoralizes you even furhher each time you lose. For now, im trying to go in player matches and try and improve without having the pressure of ranked on my shoulders.

I get more mad at myself than other players. When i fall for the same thing over and over is when i get mad.

I always think about how long it took me to learn modern Tetris (Tetris Effect). I literally been playing for four years now. I remember when a T-spin double seemed impossible and how I would obliterate my past self in the game. I apply that mindset to Tekken. I'm always going to surpass myself; forget about how good others are. I can't be stopped from improving if I don't quit.

These words are beyond wise!! Kid you not, took your words into consideration after feeling hopeless a bit, it really helped me remind myself to remain grounded and to take losses into lessons. I got frustrated and kept losing and realized I needed to take a breath and be calm, even if I’m cornered. Finally got out of orange, and almost to blue ranks for my main, Shaheen. Learned new moves, learned patience, laugh at mistakes I made and continue to make, surround myself with good peers, and to remember to have fun. It makes a world of a difference. Many thanks!

A wise man once said: If it takes forever, no surrencer. I don't know who that wise man was, but I like the cut of his jibs. Even made a kickass song about it, I think.

Dope video feel like the universe wanted to see this video! T8 is mad stress😅 Thanks bro

I never rage quit in a Tekken match ever...losing is a learning process. That's how you get better at anything in life. You learn from your mistakes and improve with time.

I really like everything that was said in this video

Great video! Very, very helpful. Definitely needed to hear this. Tekken8 is a VERY frustrating game. But, Most of my frustrations come from myself really. At times I would press to quickly and get counter hit/punish or I when I see someone literally backing all the way up To the other end of the stage, I get impatient & frustrated & rush towards them. Knowing that they want me come to them. Slowly but surely getting better at the game & keeping a level head. Would sure like to spar with you and any cool down to earth fighters that care to spar :)

After getting my ass handed to me multiple times when playing Tekken 8 at Acen I needed this video.

💯 Nice video. There should be more content like this. State of mind is EVERYTHING in fighting games. You could talk about frame data, balance patches, buffs, nerfs all day long... But if you're not approaching the machine from a neutral and disciplined state of being, none of those things mean anything. The pain of loss is nothing but pure ego. You're just over identifying with the character. You end up pinning your entire self worth on the outcome of the match. You have to remember it's just a game and that you're playing it for the thrill and for the fun. Gotta maintain that bird's eye mindset and keep the full picture in perspective. 🔥👁️🔥
