tekken is not an easy fighting games. TMM goes over them in 8 minute but trust me... That is only the basic and that is not the full potential of the character but TMM will give you the basic to build on... Learning the In depth of a character will take like 30 minuites to 1 hour of explaining depending on which character and the game is very new so there always something new coming up.

For Reina, I feel like they struck gold with her design. If she truly is "I will mash you to death" while also being super complex, you have a character that can shine in all levels, newbies (me included) will be happy to pick her up, get some wins and when going gets tough they will have to naturally improve. I am ready to give my time to learn her moveset. If that fails, Asuka will be there for me I guess :D

Great list. What I’ll say is if you love an advanced character, play them. That goes for every fighting game. Just accept it’s going to be slower to start winning and getting good. Best time to start was 10 years ago but that’s impossible next best time is now. The reality is you’re going to have to learn fundamentals whoever you play. I see people say to learn basics with one character and then switch but I personally believe this is wrong, play the character that’s going to make you keep playing the game, the one you like, the one that fits YOU. I know it’s not Tekken but I’ve seen so many Ryu players, playing like psychopaths because they should have picked an aggressive rushdown but were told he’s the beginner.

This is the truth, most people have no clue what they're doing in low-mid ranks so even if the character is super high in execution like Lee, Kazuya etc... you will win games by just doing some of their stronger basic moves or even if you execute slower than optimal difficult moves its not a big deal because most of the time it will land anyway.. Most games you lose will be because you lack fundamentals or got knowledge checked which is frustrating but that's how people learn
@Anonymous-gq7ho
@Anonymous-gq7ho 4 ай бұрын
That's pretty generic bad advice. Learning the basics with a straightforward character is always better than trying to learn some advanced character who has completely different gameplay, which is also why a lot of people get stuck in lower ranks for years. They skip the basics and just get their ass beat by people who know the basics of the game. If you have fun, I guess you do you. Your advice isn't terrible and I'm not sitting on it, but it's just not good either.
@GramdalfFGC
@GramdalfFGC 4 ай бұрын
@@Anonymous-gq7ho my point is you’ll learn better when you’re interested. You’re expecting new players to pick a character they find boring and grind out fundamentals. Sure this may be the “best way” but it’s also terrible for player retention. Fundamentally these games are meant to be fun, none of us are getting paid for it, why make it feel like homework? Also some hard characters are hard because they’re unique, learning Ryu will mean fuck all if you’re trying to play Dhalsim. He just moves and plays so differently. The opposite can be true as well, “harder characters” can be very fundamentals based like the mishimas for example, you have to get solid fundamentals, but if you pick an easier character, who may be easier because they allow you to win with less fundamentals, or even no fundamentals because they have several tool to skip neutral, guess what ? You aren’t learning good fundamentals, you’re just trying to win.

@@Anonymous-gq7ho From a rational perspective you are 1000% right however a lot of people get discouraged if they feel like they have to do x y z before they can start enjoying something and in the end its a game so unless someone plans to be really good it doesnt matter.

Lee was my first and main in T7, off a vague memory of trying him after getting tired of playing King vs AI on my PSP while stuck in a hospital. I was still a super casual and bad player. I managed to get to Tekken God (potentially more if I didnt get so stressed playing ranked, lol) . It may be tough, but dont feel intimiated if a character is advanced, it's very rewarding. I had basically no competetive fighting game experience when I started, which means anyone can achieve the same if you want it

I just had to stop the video to give appreciation to what SWE said in the intro. Picking a character that looks cool to you to start with is always the proper thing to do. I do it every new fighting game I get and think others should too because you'll have a lot more fun if you do. I just want to call out people that don't do this though. Everyone that hops on a new fighting game and immediately asks the question "who's good in this game?" or "where's the tier list" and picks their character based off of that I don't respect unless your aim is to go to National and International tournaments. You're not getting on the game to actually enjoy it and have fun at that point imho.

Rooflemonger among others makes vids that promotes that mentality but very few say pick who u like...as for people that want to pick based upon their strength, u can't really blame people for wanting their character that they like to also be good. Think of sf5 ryu until v-shift...

@@TheFightingGentleman Not knowledgeable about SFV but I am more so knowledgeable about 6 since I've got many hours in it. I get what you mean however my thing is people only looking for good characters and only playing them because they're like top 5 in a game. There's plenty of people I see play JP and Ken specifically cuz they're like top 3. I don't blame anyone for wanting the character they play to be good but all I'm saying is don't immediately go for that and only that cuz its lame in my opinion.

@@TheFightingGentleman Problem is, that usually, someone doesn't even know why their character is bad, if they even are lowtier. And that that doesn't matter if you're a good player pushing the character above the basics. That's why everyone always says tier lists only matter for the pro ranks/actual tourneys

Top players have been tier whores for decades, but the end results are what's important

Not that armor King was easy to play, but having those traditional tools in a move list made all the difference sometimes. Brian's complete lack of traditional tools in Tekken makes him extremely difficult to play in regular situations. You constantly have to be out thinking and rethinking everything that you do. I noticed that the most when I spent some time learning armor king

I would say Katarina is popular because I’ve seen in almost every Facebook Tekken group someone posting her. Usually with the terms, “We’ll miss playing this character”. I have to say she was seriously fun to play. However, she did feel like she needed some more grapple moves like Anna could do. I wouldn’t be surprised if she makes it in eventually.

I find myself wanting to play so many characters. I main Steve, but I'm looking around and going "omg, everyone is cool now". Bryan has always been sick, but it looks a little easier to get plus frames going now. Jun looks easy but also egregious, might be fun. Claudio same jam but the single hit nature of him is appealing. Reina having a df2 pushes me into wanting to play a Mishima finally, it's a nice safety blanket while getting used to electrics. It's just so cool to see everyone play so interesting

My mains in Tekken are Raven, Hwoarang and Jin. I like mainly Raven because he's very unique and authentic, and because he resemble Naruto characters in his unorthodox fighting style approach. We need diversity in the category of fighting styles, so Raven it's a very good all-rounder authentic character exemple in my opinion. My first Tekken that introduced me to the Tekken series was Tekken 3 and my mains there was Hwoarang and Jin, fast forward a couple of years and when Tekken 4 arrived, my mains there was still Hwoarang and Jin, and Christie or Eddy. But when the Masterpiece Tekken 5 arrived, Raven has always be my trump card and my first main of the Tekken Series, follow by Hwoarang, Jin and Christie or Eddy. So all of these characters that I mention are considered OG staple characters of the Tekken Franchise by many Tekken Veterans. 🤷🏻‍♂️☯️
