The only time i leave is when the connection is atrocious. Can't be fun for either of us, so let's just find a better match.

As someone who ALWAYS rematches others, I want to give a friendly reminder that no one owes you a rematch. Regardless of their reasons, they do not have to rematch you. It honestly annoys me to type this as I really would like for my opponent to rematch me as well, regardless if they won or loss the 1st set.

I get more frustrated when we win a set each, and a 3rd set is needed to break the tie....and then they leave! That REALLY pisses me off!

I ain’t gone lie, if it’s Victor I win or lose I’m out!

Fighting Game. People forget the more important part of this word, the 'Game' part. Games were fundamentally made for entertainment. Not everybody picked up Tekken 8 or SF6 to become the next Knee or Daigo. Some saw the marketing, thought it was cool, and gave it a try. For the majority of people, they don't even realize that being good at it can already be a sustainable livelihood in this modern era. A person would be lying if he told you that in his family reunion one day he decided to tell everyone that his job is competing in fighting games and he didn't get weird looks. People need to accept the fact, that games in general are stress relief and because of that they're not always going to press that rematch button. Do you really expect fighting a victor who spammed 22222 in the entire fight to rematch you after you sidestepped his Glock, launched him, and then killed him? How about the Asuka who kept spamming parry because it worked well in arcade only to get grabbed (grabs in this game are unbreakable if they caught you while doing a parry) over and over? How about the King who got boosted to Vanquisher with his myriad of throws only to face you whose throw break defense is S+ because you've been breaking them since tekken 5? No. When you find these people you need to understand that they play the game for stress relief. They come home from work, boot up the game, hoping to get their fill of dopamine that will help them stave off the stress and not unalive themselves thinking that they have to work for an douche boss 5-6 days in a week. Unless you're in extremely high ranks, where it's obvious everyone's playing to get better, you shouldn't expect anyone to give you a rematch and even then, having a 'bad day' is still a perfectly acceptable reason to walk away.

If you are going to rematch a person , do it based on being competitive. Do not rematch just because " its the thing to do". A player gets thier ass destroyed in Rank, get demoted , and they're supposed to fight the person AGAIN so they can lose twice and get demoted even further. Lmfao! You can honestly find another match up within seconds on Tekken 8. Theres no shortage of opponents so 'Rank Shaming ' One and Dones is fruitless. Sad part is I've seeen so many streams where a player rematches. ( not because they are competitive ) They rematch because they were taught to finish the set no matter what. More times than not it ends HORRIBLY for them. Twice.

tbh I don´t mind people not rematching if they get completely destroyed (it´s understandable they don´t want to try again)...the ones that annoy me are the ones who manage to steal a win with cheese and run off or the ones who beat you in the first match thinking they get another easy win, you turn up and beat them and the leave on 1 - 1 it´s never a big deal tho...just a little annoying sometimes

I always want to finish the set. But there are some matches where the connection magically starts to slow down when I get a launcher that sour it.

Ok, I'm gonna say this cuz i think many will be scared to and also seems most people are in a sheepish mindset unwilling to actually think logically. I mean no offense. I like a good productive convo. Firstly, yes a person can one and done if they want. Not everyone has the same goals as anyone else in playing or find enjoyment from doing the full set. That's cool. Hate when folks try to push the bs narrative that you need to rematch them in ranked to get better. No you dont. You got quick match, practice mode, friends, group match, etc etc. I think yal use "you cant get better" as an excuse to try to mask yal own frustrations and personal ego because that point is literally one of the weakest arguments for them to play you again. 😂 They could learn without ranked mode. So could you. If all of the folks with a problem with it all wanted to learn, yal wouldnt have trouble finding ways to help each other beyond just a "won a set against you, bye". Add each other and do sets of ten lol. Secondly, there's tons of reasons a person can one and done besides the typical reasons yal bring up. For instance, they just want to tick you off because they know yal hate it, same with ki charging and t bagging, or maybe they take some weird pride in ranking up from just doing one match, etc. Regardless of their reason, we can only guess from the outside. People crying about a person choosing not to risk their points is, IRONICALLY, just as "caring about losing" as much as the guy quitting. Otherwise, why does it matter if they play you again? You'll see that same character hundreds of times and if yal got a similar mindset, add each other and work on learning the ins and outs of the character. Taking ranks so seriously that you all will talk trash, call names, and be toxic to people for simply possibly choosing to strategically not risk their points, being scared, or whatever their reason is funny to me. There's so many other players, matches, and things you can do to get better, if that's your aim, that it doesnt make much sense to get salty at all lol then try to tell them how important it is to take those matches less seriously and accept losses so they get better. Yal dont see the hypocrisy? Who cares if they get a cheap win on you, you're just playing just to get better right? Even if you wn you cant learn that character in one ft3 right? Well on to the next, shouldn't matter enough to create a whole video complaining, twitter, or call names. Half the players could be little kids and yal get angy and judge. "Be a man and finish the set", maybe, how about be a man and shrug it off like nothing? It's a game. "But respect tho", 90% of yal in the fgc are toxic, disrespectful, and illogical many times. So getting yal respect aint some significant thing to care about. Yal take ranks, points, and whatnot so seriously that yal actually care if they "fake" their skill? The "appearing good but not good" point only matters if yal take ranks as some end all of skill. A beginner rank could beat gods, a God could lose to beginner ranks. Ironically, if yal stopped depending on others to give you a chance to get your win or learn, yal would probably be less triggered.

I get how 1 and dones are aggravating,but I agree with the emergency comments simply because this is a videogame...unless this is your job well there is always a good reason to stop playing even I it's in the middle of a game.

9/10 I’ll rematch win or lose unless it’s a King player💀

I know this feel Mike. Right now I'm fighting my way to "Master" in sf6. (Currently plat 5) I take wins, i get bodied...but i always follow through on the ft2. I've gone from 186k, down to 178k, back up to 184k as of last night. The road up isn't supposed to be easy. If im losing to diamond players, then im not ready for diamond. Gotta get better.

why would i rematch someone who totaly crushes me and i barely get a hit on him?? i play for fun if someone completly destroys me why would i lose another match 0-3 were i barely can do a thing? Instead i go the next match and get someone who where i have a close match agianst and then yes i rebattle because its fun and you learn way more from that then getting 0-3 stomped. Mayby there are also players that arent't that good in the game and rather have a fun match then getting 0-3 stomped? Idc about my rank how long i have fun playing Like whats wrong with that??

If someone crushes me for the first match and want a rematch, i am declining. If i loose but the match was great for both party, i rematch and if i win, i simply wait for the challenger answer. If they want a rematch then i accpet (and that’s mostly what i’ve encountered). If they win the rematch and decline my rematch, then fuck off. 😂

as someone who will quit after losing a match, it’s not always to protect my pride lol. not to say i never get frustrated as a new player, but i would rather go watch the replay for tips so i actually LEARN rather than get demolished twice bc i got shaken a bit and couldn’t learn from the first match. don’t really see the point in blacklisting someone for this bc chances are they’re new, and a big reason the community can fail to grow is being shamed for using options literally baked into the game. no need to be a sore winner about things.

I rematch but this opinion is pretty entitled.

If a Battle Can’t be Won, Don’t Fight It. - Sun Tzu

That Adesanya one is a good example of this. Didn't expect you to use that fight, although at least we're able to see Strickland dominate him. Off topic but I hope Volkanovski serves Ilia a humble pie on Saturday.

It's all in your head, bro. There are many reasons someone might leave after one match. Like I understand that it always FEELS like they are disrespecting you because I feel that too, and many times they probably are. But like, take me for example. I have anger problems, always have. I have a tendancy to break my stuff and do really stupid things when I'm angry so if for any reason I feel myself getting angry I just leave the set without going again, even if I won. It could be the way my opponent is playing, the way i'm playing, or simply the fact that I'm getting bodied. Whatever, It doesn't matter, and isn't about my opponent. It's a personal flaw that I recognize and this is one way I try to minimize it. Or maybe someone has to leave for some reason, pick any reason (crying baby, knock on the door, phone call, literally whatever). The reality is that tekken ranked matches are not always the top priority for people. For real though, unless someone is outright BMing you, getting offended about them leaving is just you inventing something to be upset about. Offended at something that might not even exist.

"1 in a 1000 one and dones are an actual emergency" not true, the amount of times I'd fucking shit myself whenever I realized I needed to go badly after just one match is surprisingly high, shit happens (literally), its just a game at the end of the day and I'm not about to shit my breeches for an honourable duel lmao

Generally I rematch as much as possible because I just don’t want to wait/i want to play as much as possibly. But sometimes the “emergency” is going to the bathroom, or picking my something up or something. It doesn’t have to be an actual emergency. And I put it like this: it’s a game, win lose or draw, if I gotta use the toilet, or run to the door, or whatever the case I’m going to exit and jump back on later, even if it’s only 2 minutes and I personally don’t think I have to explain myself (if I do it’s as a curtesy). The game only gives you 10 seconds to decide, my name ain’t Sonic or Berry, I’m not gonna be back in that 10 seconds

So if I have a match, then need to take a shit. Do I have to hold it in so you can have a rematch? If I do it once then I should be blacklisted? I respect the opinion of having the right mindset but the people who are worse are pluggers. Making a video about ‘one and done’ isn’t really going to make other things brought up vividly clear. One and done is an option for a reason. There were a lot point farming in Tekken 7 and even if I gave a second game, there won’t be much to see. Unless you go back to the drawing board and learn punishing, a second rematch won’t really improve your skills. Losing in itself doesn’t increase your skills, and you only learn when you’re actually practicing on covering your weakness. Moreover, even if it’s not taking a shit there are chores and IRL. Tekken 8 isn’t even the only game I have.

Consider this. If a week from now, Namco releases a patch that changed a set from best of 3 to best of 11, what tune will you be singing then? That the 'acceptable' code of conduct is to spend 1 hour playing a maximum of 11 matches with just one opponent? Or are you gonna say that's too much? If you even have the slightest ability to understand that 11 matches is too much, then that's the main point right there - subjectivity. You may think it's much, but someone else will say that since a set is now best of 11, you're scum for not rematching all the way. My take is, screw subjective standards. The only objective aspect is that Namco gave players the ability to rematch or decline after 1 game. So no one owes anyone a rematch. Stop making it sound like what makes you tick should also make what others tick.

So I always rematch cause apparently that “respectful” stat is based on rematching and I want that shit at S+ lol Jokes aside I don’t think we are entitled to a rematch as long as developers don’t force it. I disagree with you that everyone needs to be improving. I feel a flowcharter that refuses to learn still adds value to the health of the game at a casual level, and I want them to play as long as possible. If not forcing rematches is gonna help that, that’s fine. At the end of the day Flowchart Jim is gonna quit if he gets bodied too many times in a row, but the guy actually dedicating himself to getting better is not gonna quit over a few win quits. Also if you mash through the win screen and hit rematch before your opponent makes a selection, it usually doesn’t freeze on me. Only freezes when I choose simultaneously or after my opponent.

There are times higher level players don’t rematch me. Not because I won but that they have standards. It’s pretty short-sighted to think only those who lose do ‘one and done’.

The fact that they quit is not that irritating to me, the fact that you don't get rewarded for the remaining set with points is what makes me furious. They should make it a thing that when you start a set, quitting it midthrough will reward the other player with the points they would take by defeating you. The same goes with when someone quits mid match, you should ALWAYS be rewarded. Also whoever says they have an emergency it's a lie, that rarely ever happens and if someone was really busy they wouldn't sit to play Tekken ranked.

Do I have this right? Opponent: Wins yet leaves = Rage Losses and leaves = Rage Player: Wins yet leaves, Depends on connection/Is bored = Acceptable Losses and leaves = Being salty/tryhard So what's the difference between rage quitting at that point? The opponent and the player will be upset regardless of who wins or loses and if they just decide to leave on the first one. The only difference is you're either given points for the win or lose points for taking an honest loss instead of just shutting off the game. But if the person wins and they still get their points because their opponent didn't Rage Quit... then why would the person who won be angry? Would they rather the opponent Rage Quit so they can make quick upload clip, or at least get the points they won? I am aware Esports exist and everything but why are people treating online like it's grand finals? ( I come from a family of extreme sport fanatics and I don't believe I've heard of something this convoluted over winning or losing ) I can understand the whole tournament thing because there's lots of money on the line. What isn't ranked mode pretty much just bragging rights? And what about the whole thing of people saying - "Being an online ranked Warrior isn't the same as being up there on stage." (or whatever) I mean damn guys. I'm pretty sure not everyone who has bought the game is planning to make a career out of it. Some people just see video games as what they are - A pastime. If someone is getting this worked up over convoluted technicalities regarding unspoken rules for games (that aren't even in a tournament) I wouldn't even bother playing online in that game if I'm going to risk getting my account banned because I somehow hurt someone's feelings. I enjoy video games, but I'll never understand why some people take it *THIS* seriously.

I have no shame, so I will do one and done until the game allows me to pick stages when losing. Even if I win, I would never subject my opponents to play on Underground Arena and it's bullshit wall resets.

Meh. I stay if I'm having difficult matches. But if the opponent is actually tilting me or being toxic I'm out after 1 set. I don't even care. My mental health matters more than someone's gamer pride and 100 rank points. And it does feel like the people complaining about 1 set care as much about their points as the people who leave do.

I will say, I am a one and done player and im shameless about it. My reason for doing it though is for one of the following reasons or multiple or all of the above 1. Their connection sucks and the game is too laggy to have a rematch and I dont want to deal with that problem anymore 2. because I live in South Africa, I often get matched with the same people multiple times. (I have had an instance where I matched up with someone 6 ranks higher than me 3 times in a row and it was the same person). If I wanna fight the same person multiple times id create a session or group match so no I dont want that. 3. I dont want to fight a scummy person. Some people are just not enjoyable to fight and I dont want to fight them again. I refuse to plug so ill just one and done. like I said I am unapologetic about it. I wont have others ruin my fun, they can match up with someone else and if the game forces me to run into them again then I will fight them again I do try to get better, while I stream my viewers can see me doing stuff like studying frame data, side stepping, watching replays and downloading and watching pro players matches and all that stuff (Leroy main btw) so I do spend my time trying to get better at the game and its always tested. but I am someone who whether I win or lose, I will one and done unless I really enjoyed my match with them

remember when playing fighting games was about enjoying yourself? yeah, me neither also, emergency doesn't always mean a straight up disaster is occurring. if I get a call from my mom or grandma I would obviously prioritize answering it rather than finishing the set (unplugging is almost inexcusable tho)

I have played tekken for the first time since ps1 this week and i play ranked, Im learning the game and dont expect to win every game at all and for me if im playing someone who beats me within 10 seconds 3 rounds in a row i see no point in rematching, it doesnt make me scared its just seeing the experience difference and i dont see how i will learn with the exact same thing happening again. If i have a entertaining game with someone or its close i will rematch, or if i win i will give them a chance to fight again. a lot of people play these games just for fun, its really not that deep, i dont care about gaining someones respect, i just want to fight on there learn and have fun, im not trying to go to tournaments or put 10k hours into it. You have 3 rounds to win or lose, no one owes anyone anything else except for seeing them out without rage quitting like a child. Ive had people who didnt want to fight me again and see no problem with it, i moved on and fought someone else because it takes literally 10 seconds to find another game.

I think people are leaving after winning 1 time because they don't wanna play with you anymore, its that simple. i'm not rematching some annoying characters when i am not in a mood. Also emergency is not only death and life situations its just a game and if somebody needs to quit - they quit its not a big deal.

Last time I check, tekken is a video game. Some ppl play for “competition”. Most ppl play for fun. “Getting good” is irrelevant.

I usually rematch but i dont think its that deep, sometimes someone doesn't have time for another match. A lotta people are playing in their break, or when they're about to go out, or about to go to bed, or they live with others who might need their attention or help, etc.

Reasons I one and done: The other guy is playing Azucena, Viktor, Yoshimitsu, Reina, or Devil Jin. Those fuckers are way too annoying to fight so I'm saving my own sanity.

I'm a beginner and I'm trying to learn the game. What could I possibly learn from a veteran player going all out and comboing me into oblivion 6 times in a row? Thats right, nothing. So I one and done and move on to the next fight. Where, I will definitely lose but hopefully I can squeeze in one counter or combo etc and actually learn something

That’s because there’s no more unlimited rematches which mean less chances to figure your opponent out

No one owes you anything.

I have to say is that fighting genre for this generation of player don't like losing even on other games

We found something MK1 is better than T8 at the moment at least, the way the ranked mode work. I don't mean the road to Elder God but what you talked about in the video. If you Win a game in MK you have to complete the set to get points, if you quit early you lose point and the opponent gets points, also the MK have the feature for friendly rematch. Finally a W for MK1 because otherwise the MK1 is full of Ls.

12:33 this was me in T7 which is another reason I'm happy that infonite rematch is gone. It applied for win streaks too lol, I just nearly always rematched till the other person said no. It also meant my rank was a lot more volatile cause it would just depend on what person I got into an hour+ long set with. Friendly match is a great idea tho.

i only move on if i whent against someone that i have 0% chance in winning! u want a rematch and tbag me more while stroking your ego over a unfair win? Nahh no thanks! *U wont learn from it* learn what? taking Advantage over people thats not your level? nahh ill one & done THAT

I do one and done not because of point or false emergency. Its because of the character, if i play against law, king or F***** victor. I leave win or loss. Im not here to learn or some nerd shit. Im here to have fun in a game i worked and paid for to have fun after work.

I think Izzy wasn't interested in a rematch because Dana wanted to preserve both Alex and Izzy's draw power by sparing one of them in a hypothetical rematch from becoming obsolete after defeat. Instead he can move Alex up to 205, and they both kept their careers (until Strickland smoked Izzy).. Honestly a rematch doesn't make any sense to me, but we have a pretty good idea about what would happen anyway.. 4-1, Poatan! **does crazy ring entrance crossbow reenactment of a tribesmen, and screams in the camera**

Man, this sounds so whiny.

While I do respect what you’re saying in the video, I’ve got one question for you; Why is it an issue now with one and done? If it wasn’t an issue back in Tekken 7 and Dead or Alive 6, then why is it an issue now?

Fought a super gimmicky Law player that I lost the first game to. After finding their gimmick out in the first game I completely reverse swept them. I was so ready to do it again in the 3rd game but they left instantly and I've never had such a big smile on my face knowing they left because I figured them out.

I play ranked almost exclusively, and I don't mind losing a couple ranks from time to time. It doesn't mean anything anyway, and I'm just looking to improve. That said, no one owes you a rematch. It could be a number of things. The connection seemed good at first, and then it became spotty. Something came up that I need to tend to(I'm married, so sometimes my wife will ask if I can help her with something, so I tell her right after the fight, then refuse the rematch). And even if it's not either of those, I will refuse a rematch if I get thoroughly destroyed, because at that point I'm not learning anything, I'm just giving the guy a free win and I recognize that.

5:46 I understand that completely, spend 8 to 10 fights getting a couple hundred points a pop then run into an ascending monster that just juggernauts you out they way for minus 1000 😅😢

I won and done in TEKKEN8 because these mother flowers deserve it but I've been facing too many rat's that deserve it that I'm ONE AND DONING people almost in every match, I can't stand this game and especially almost all of the TEKKEN community, you guys are toxic as hell, shaking my head!!!

If they whoop you so bad that you're butthurt and want a rematch just to "learn the matchup" but they leave, maybe you should use the built in replay system to see what they did right and what you did wrong, instead of sitting there being pissed off lol

Personally I only get annoyed at people not rematching when I go against someone much much better than me with my main because I want to learn more from how they play to improve my game and then they just leave and their ghost is just as good as a ghost can be so there's not much to learn from that

I often 1 and done because I get pissed at my own execution and just immediately head right back into practice.

I only do that with Howarang in ranked. I hate fighting that mf 😂

I never one and done but I definitely always take a small break from Ranked if I lose two “sets” since I don’t want to have my learning clouded from being in a potential bad mood/shitty mindset. Doing this has actually decreased my tilt considerably.

Reina, the face of one and doners; appropriate thumbnail

now im gonna start by saying feng players are the same to me as eddy, katarina and alisa. law and paul as well, where everyone who plays them is usually carried and picking this char because they have such strong and obnoxious tools to make up for thier lack of knowledge and skill... you are right about wanting to keep points and rank. and with your point about being able to defend it. but i just wanna call out your rose tinted shades and also realize not everyone wants to fight feng or alisa or azucena/reina... maybe my ranked session is going great without running into some scub who only has his rank because he can only mash and does not need to actually play tekken wharsoever.. he can go into kempo stance and cheese the whole time or snipe me with d3 (alisa)....plenty of times im launching scubs and they still keep doing same shit. ima rematch these guys??? i normally wouldnt watch a feng mains vids either but i like ya bro, except this take. good god, the lack of perspective. maybe no rematch cuz i gotta piss? hate the stage? gotta take trash out, shower.. or am just way too tilted to fight a hwo or feng... who demand 200% of your respect and attention at all times. finally some chars just cheese and flowchart you to death... regardless of you launching them.. some chars are just straight up brain dead... feng being one of the worst examples of this.. no need to step. no need to backdash. just mash. character will do everything for you.. like alisa, kuni. paul , and law

What im hearing is you want to farm me out!? Lmao

Being new to Tekken I had to get used to the level of frustration getting beaten brings. I never plug and never will, and I always rematched, up to one day that I got so frustrated that I started denying rematches whenever I knew I would be destroyed. My argument was that I couldn't learn a thing by being juggled to the wall after 1 single whiff and that I had not learned the match up yet, therefore I couldn't win regardless. However I gradually chilled and started rematching more and more as soon as I noticed what you also said here: we might get destroyed for 1 match but eventually we figure something out and we might learn something, and sometimes make a come back. Now that I have admitted being guilty of Cancelling rematches (only sometimes, when I get destroyed; I'm not a chronic "Canceler") I have to say I agree with your argument here. The only exception to this would be matches with Wifi players that start lagging immensely, or if I find disrespectful or abusive taunting. I really can't stand that one bit and I don't feel I owe any respect to trolls, so in that case I feel free to go search for other players.

I personally think that people dont own me a rematch but i do like when we get a rematch and maybe insted of putting down single matches what if we promote rematch and earn more if they win essentially the win streak will earn you more then just doing 1 game and dipping. It obviously im not describing well but it my 2 cents on it

I actually dislike how no one wants to add anyone. If I have a really good match, very close and it’s back and forth, I try to add people and have never had one accept, not once. I understand they assume I’m adding them to swear at them, but it’s sad that that’s the mentality by default. I would love to continue to play against someone where it’s anyone’s game.

Yeah I sometimes don't rematch, yeah sometimes I'm scared, yeah I'm bad and I don't give fck. If I'm faced with a game I know I have no chance, and more importantly, I know I'm NOT GONNA ENJOY, I don't rematch. I don't own ya nothing friend, I value my enjoyment more than some anonymous internet sense of honor. Now plugging, that's whats truly shameful.

This is such an entitled Rant - LMAO What you have to remember is that the old mantra of you won't get better one and done'ing is not relavant as it was before. With the improved replay and tips that you can replay a situation over and over and take control of your character to learn how to deal with what was blowing you up. So why would I get blown up by something that I did not understand and hit rematch so you can do it to me again ..... if I haven't got a Scooby what is going on .... I'M NOT LEARNING OR GETTING BETTER. It makes more sense to leave and go straight to the replay and work through what is going on and LEARN AND IMPROVE. I'm so glad that Deathmatches are no longer a thing atm. So many entitled players bitching if you leave. As a Tekken Dad having to stop playing so you can support your children when they need you is not a "1 in 1,000" situation. It happens ALL THE TIME Just because you don't have real life things interupting your gaming time doesn't mean you can insist that other players ignore life to pander to your entitled need to always rematch. Let's sort out the Pluggers by always reporting them rather than bitching about someone that finishes the match - but then has to deal with real life or wants to lab the situation there and then.

Bro on tekken ranked all you see is Reina and eddy that shit is annoying nobody want to Vs that again.

Personally I have no problem rematching in ranked except if it's a character I really dislike like long or Yoshi. I should still rematch but sometimes the stress is too much. I do however rematch when I lose because playing better players makes you better if your willing to learn

Some people have kids and if there’s any lag I won’t play a 2nd match win or lose

Some ranked matches are just a slog to get through,met a nina that kept doing a string that ended with her firing her guns constantly (she was higher ranked than me too) so I won after making changes to my gameplan and left.

I'll leave if I want to. If I didn't enjoy the set I'm gone whether it's win or lose.

As soon as they rematch. I just let the time run out,and laugh.

When I play ranked im playing RANKED im picking and choosing my fights. My rank and points are important to me. If i wanna "Learn" then i go into quick match. Quick match where everyone knows it doesnt matter. I think if it makes u that mad u should play unranked. Everyone is more likely to rematch even if there is a clear skill difference.

You def entitled for rematch but when I play 4 kings in a row Im like alright not finna mess my mental up for this 😂 but you're 100% right gotta finish the sets to get better

One and done is annoying asl but, what the hell kind of rant even is this? This idea that fighting game “etiquette” is a thing, in actuality is delusion. The question you ought to asking is why one and done’s make you feel this way. Unpack that, pull your big boy pants up and move tf on. 😂

Also...leaving after 1 match doesn't mean you can't hold your own at that rank...just means that you don't want them getting use to your strategy. For me as a Nina player...I'm a surprise ppl, you don't have to give them more time to adapt. You don't have to be a button masher being a 1 and done. I don't agree with this one at all

The best thing..... *THE BEST THING* ...is when they one and done you. You get sent back to standby. You accept another match. AND IT'S THE SAME PLAYER THAT ONE AND DONE BEFORE. LMAOOOOO... man those are the BEST occurrence in fighting games for me. SF4, TTT2, VF5, SF5, T7 amd now T8.... I enjoy the hell outta rhat ish, and it never gets old. 1 and Done: Ha Ha, i got that lucky win. Glad i left and dont have to face that pla- Me: "GOTCHA, WELCOME BACK ☕".... 🤣💯💯

If it was this serious they should’ve made it a game mechanic that you must play best of 3, but they didn’t… get over it

Playing kazuya in ranked is like playing dark souls. I had to fight 23 lillis, 14 hwo pluggers, and 8 kings just to rank up from eliminator to garyu

Damn, I guess I'll piss myself mid match 😂

I think there are alot more instances of people leaving for emergency reasons than whats credited for but I agree with you on the point of the mentality of willingly leaving a set prematurely. It does no one any favors and ultimately is just making the both of you do unnecessary waiting in between games. Yes you bought the game and that does, by pure technicality, give you the right to choose to leave but youre also the one that chose the ranked mode, the mode thats supposed to be a marker of your progress and skill. Cherry picking matches is definitely lame behavior and I really dont like people justifiying it to themselves

This isn't really a big deal at all. People do this to me all the time but I really don't get why anyone would be bothered by this at all.

I'm very competitive generally and make a point to always rematch with 2 exceptions. 1. Toxicity. Sometimes I'll stay and just be toxic back and often will win on a comeback but after a ton of toxic fights it gets tiring. 2. Lag. I try to only accept wired fights, however, if I'm stuck searching for awhile and only finding wifi I'll eventually accept a 5 bar wifi. Sadly, that 5 bar turns to 2 50% of the time when you actually get in the fight. I agree with accepting losses. It is key to getting better. I just can't bring myself to want to lock people into a fight with me or vice versa. Also, shit just happens. If they gotta go then they gotta go. It's hard to fight a nice middle place with this topic that makes everyone happy.

My personal opinion is that people that are genuinely looking to get better will not rematch someone that is obviously much more skilled or much less skilled than them. Genuine competitions comes when both participants are about the same level of skill, there's no point absolutely trashing or getting absolutely trashed for another 2-5 minutes. Especially when the game is newer, there is a big discrepancy in skill levels within ranks.

I love doing 1 and done matches because of conserving my rank and if you mother flowers got a problem with that I really don't care not even a lil bit!!! 😂😂😂

This video is sad .. You ranted for 17 mins because of entitlement? What are you going to rant on next, people who ki charge? Get out of here boy

Hey mike, what are your thoughts on Arslan checking SonicFox, and sikander getting in on it too? Such an embarrassment trying to get in with the tekken pros. Arslan knows better than him.

when i get absolutly destroy or i lose, my mindset is " is not over until the game kicks me, i will rematch you until the end of the universes if i have to" i know i can get atleast 1 win!.

Got to take them Ls before you can enjoy them Ws. I actually enjoy rematching after getting cooked, makes me even more determined to win.

I usually 1 and done people if the connection is bad (and I mean bad as in going all the way to 2 or 1 bar mid game after showing a 5 bar, reaching 200+ ms and all that) which is rare, but it happens. And also, people that just press and disregard the neutral with power crushes and desperate grabs. Otherwise, I usually rematch. Oh, and let's not forget the blacklisted characters that, honestly, everyone avoids. Mine are Jun, Xiaoyu, Hwoarang and Yoshi. Same as others probably avoid Lee and Bryan, the ones I usually play. But at high ranks, after Tekken God, I can see why not rematching is annoying since there's not many people up there.

I don't get any of those arguments tbh. The only argument I can get behind is that it cuts down on loading screens when you do accept the rematch. I "1 and done" every single time just because I prefer fighting against another player who is most likely using a different character rather than fight the same person using the same character. 1 match is already made up of 3 rounds so if both win 2 times, that's already 5 fights against the same person. more than enough if you ask me.

Oh well not that deep. 😂it can be slightly annoying but it’s not comparable to plugging. Sometimes I just get bored. If someone one and dones me 8 times outta ten I don’t give fuck😂 doesn’t affect me in any way unless they’re an easy mark running and I can’t get the easy promotion. Maybe there’s bitch in yall who are too afraid to keep grinding 🤷🏽‍♂️

How dare people quit a match they don’t enjoy??? What are you trying to do, have fun?

I'm pretty casual (and bad) when it comes to Tekken, and if I will go against King, I will quite after 3 games. I just don't understand how to even begin to understand the grabs. 3 games, I will at least give it a go, but I will not torture myself.

If i got my ass beat and couldn't do a damn thing, i have NO reason to rematch . With the new replay feature, there's NO reason to rematch

Hey Mike, are you going to upload your convo with Fate. It seemed like you guys worked things out, if you decided to keep the convo private that’s fine but it would be interesting to see how you guys hashed things out.

Am not gonna lie but really sounds really foolish to rant about tho.

I dont really care. I dont rematch only two characters. Zafina and Xiaoyu. I reserved myself this right. Its a game with 30+ characters. If i dont want to play against a character that crush midchecks, is my own decision. Im sure you will find somebody else that enjoys play against your character. Deal with it.

Yeah I faced a lot of people who do that like for some reason I feel like it's because they know I'm catching on to their move set and when I lose the first match, I've got a set game plan for the second and just as I'm about to press rematch, I said that they cancelled and it lowkey irritates me to some degree

Love you bro, but the option is right there so it's fair game. It's not up to you to judge people even if they are not rematching to keep their points. You are coming into this with a whole "honor"mentality and i don't think it's that deep.

I don't wanan give praise to DEATHMATCH see it wasn't an actual game feature it was like boosting but in the reverse where you fought someone you know was good and you both could play for keeps think of it like a "pink slip". Now Deathmatch being gone is wonderful because the deathmatch community is UTTERLY TOXIC~!!! These folks were never chill they were just boosters boosting. They went out looking for prey to farm to get their high rank and boast and run your name threw the mud and I remember these days when I hit a high rank and I was done I'd be offered to deathmatch and once in awhile i'd accept but if i didn't the response was never "oh okay" no i was greeted to racial slurs and why im a booster. Now rank doesn't mean anything its up to the inidividual to decide what value rank has because man I know a good player back in TT2 who could beat blue ranks and he was just a brawler he didn't care for ranked and ranked doesn't = skill or improvement just repetition and practice does. Now when it comes to the reason what does it matter? In the realm of infinite outcomes we don't know why they one and done. Is it shameful? IMO no what's it matter at the end of the day they still had to play so now we are mad that they are ranking up smart? "It's cause they won't improve' many people practice and stay at a rank till they are ready to challenge them and man I'm sick of this because bothsides prove one fact they are babies who can't take an "L" the person you beat 1 and dones are you really upset you couldn't grind them? It's the same thing in the reverse so stop acting as if you're a saint. Edit: also some folks aren't good opponents are respectful ones if we are going threw this moral compass and honor bs many of us who play like literal scumbags trying to cheese one another if you wanna cry about the one and done we need to address this because this is what warrants a rematch if you play like scum you don't get a rematch or lets be honest what if the skill difference is that drastic why play that much of a losing battle? "In hopes to imrpove" if anything tell these guys to add that person and vs them casually to learn.

No one owes you a rematch, but I’m not about to sit here and act like that shit isn’t wild annoying and kind of a dick move. Like I know sometimes stuff happens and you gotta go, but let’s be real, that’s not always what’s happening
