Legit lol mans everywhere

Agreed bro 💯 👍🏻

As someone who has only really dipped my toes into FGC stuff with T8 as the first fighting game I've gotten interested in competitively, Steve really makes me enjoy it so much more. He seems like a great representative for the scene - entertaining, knowledgeable, and quick

Except the only downside is that we will no longer hear "the blue stuff!" when someone uses their rage drive. 😅

right man? fr one of the goats

@@rashadvsyou for real

always a treat fr!

Yeah dawg no cap frfr 💯💯💯💥💪 did i do it right?

Mans not calling no other man tasty.

I have a feeling T8 Hwo is gonna see a lot more tournaments than in 7, feels like he's a genuinely viable tournament character in this game vs previous entries. Hes always been a noob killer but in 7 he fell off at higher ranks, no where near the case with this Hwo im loving this shit

rly good mirror matchup

You were great! I enjoyed you and Steve as a duo for sure

Great job on commentary

You did awesome my man. You actually had interesting knowledge to share and good insight. You matched Steve's energy and vibe perfectly.

@@zurikmv thank you! Really appreciate it!

@@alsoknownas875 thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks a lot! Glad you enjoyed the top 8!

Mmm.... Strange somce Tekken 8 Is the most character driven game in the whole series and literally NOTHING I've seen at this tournament ù, I haven't seen at... Blue ranks online. maybe these players are not the best, but even watching the best of the best, they all play the same fkn thing. They stripped player expression and personality in gameplay and bumped up the characters with all the unga bunga bs, the heat stuff and rage arts being so safe and damaging, while the game being built entirely around aggression and mashing buttons, with handicapped movement. To be honest, I'm already bored of Tekken 8. There is no execution requirements and everything is so character specific... I'd rather get Tekken 8's netcode into Tekken 7 and make a native PS5 version with 2 seconds loading screens and I'd rather put in another 1000 hours into that than play another 100 hours of Tekken 8. It's just not fun. I'm not playing players, I'm PLAYING against CHARACTERS. Only Jin and kazuya ,match ups are different due to execution barriers. Everyone else plays basically the same. Fought 1 victor, fought them all. It's a braindead character. It's just like playing against the A.I. Even at fujin ranks, victor players don't block and don't know how to block, they just know the armored move or expulsión. And this tournament looked like any random replay you can find in the game. And the dragunov player didn't even look like a specialist but just a tier whore. The real tournaments will look so much worse, just like ranked. Tons of Jun, azucena, dragunov, Nina, king and a few devil Jins.

Mishimas have generally underperformed in tournament play for ages, they excel when the player is able to read the defense of their opponent, and 9-15 health bars isn’t enough at the top tier to train and download an opponent. Dragunov def has strong buttons, but he’s not alone in the top tier, and there are pros winning with every character on the roster rn.

Tekken tournaments are better with Mishimas tbh Drag just has crazy good buttons but hella boring

​@@pow_dunxonly Mishima who has performed well in tournaments is Devil Jin. And I agree, with the last statement, I'm seeing pros win with some honest and mid tier characters as well like Lars, Bryan etc.

You acting like Mishimas are the most OP characters in the game, they haven't been top tier even in Tekken 7. 😂

@@rodgercampo5332 DVJ was considered a Top Tier in Season 1 and 2 of Tekken 7, heck first two grand finals of the TWT had a Devil Jin in the Grand Finals.

The best in the game imho together with mike

@@monocyte2210 BIG FACTS!!

Thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the commentary, despite the fumbles here and there haha

​@@InfernalSpyrobro u did a great job looking forward to see u in the future tournaments

@@monocyte2210 I hope to get more opportunities, until then it's getting my experience here in California. It'd be nice to travel more often

Tekken doesn't miss with their soundtracks

and at 25:53 haha

LMFAO that’s my favorite line too bro

I'm taking notes on his fakeouts lol

Steve is great to be around for sure! I'm use to being around our local NorCal players/commentary so it was taking some time to see how to fit with Steve so he could shine more. It was a nice learning experience

Yes it is! We got a few locals in the area depending on where you live at. Our main ones are in the south bay (san jose and sunnyvale) but we also have stuff going on in east bay and San Fran.

​@@InfernalSpyroSan Fran scene is strong. Visited there once and got my ass handed to me. Smaller than Chicago but filled with talent

Thank you! I try to be haha I'll be looking to get better down the road. Hopefully I get more opportunity

It’s king’s UF 3+4 kick

@@Ninjasimpmunk does each character have such a move?

@@Cons2911yeah each character has armored moves. Some are better than others

Why are they pressing into -7 at all 😂😂

Rage art does not activate after someone did heat smash on you , you just get ch launched or dead most of the time. Just like you apparently, cannot duck and block a low because the game does not respond .

Perfect input

Now I have to say my name like that for now on in honor of him haha

@@InfernalSpyro🤣🤣🤣🤣exactly !

Drag is unstoppable

Dragunov doesnt usually get far in bracket tho, the player is just really good

he retired to stream full time and spend more time with his wife.

​@@loveu4464what about aris? what happened to him did he also retire and only just become full time streamer?

Idk if fired is correct, but was at least ghosted by TWT, may have reduced his passion to commentate, or there's else going on that make him risky to hire. All I know is noripnobuy, buy a tee shirt

When you lose a set you can either change your character or change the stage.

@@Sturmjager yeah I know I just think picking the map is too much.

Nope (or at least not yet)

Take it to rip, he retired from commenting to do streaming full time
