King is OP as soon as there's delay and rollback frames and a natural 100+ms delay, then he's just op when your break inputs gets snuffed by rollback frames

Hwoarang is stupidly op, just too many plus frames on long kicking strings, there's no way out

I just love that every time when it’s Steve turn everyone praising him and respect Steve players ❤

Wait till he finds out my Azu’s libertador stance got 3 buffs

"fight me in the comments" is a great line

ex Zafina main here. Shes been nerfed from Tekken 7 to Tekken 8. Shes pretty complex with acces to tons of low which make match up tricky if you dont know her but ehr damage is so low right now i was stunned when i tried another character. It takes 4-5 attacks to do the damage of a single Jin punch. She need a bit of a buff, not by alot

I say Nina is broken my god the amount of tracking moves this woman has is unholy

Lili is actually anoying af to fight bc *most* of them spam then kick move. But actually good lili players I respect tho

Bro . Kazuya need a big buff

Fighting a character like panda or Kuma , even when the duck you should be able to do a throw due to their size .

As a Leo main I think he's pretty broken when it comes to wall carry and wall damage beacause he gets a unscaled stomp for example all together I get like 99 damage thats 60% HP LOL if your able to KNK cancel you can do way more. His neutral game is not the best but when you get launched it's gonna hurt.

I disagree with Victor. His only superbroken tool was his grabs which will be fixed today. His sword moves are sidestepable and some other important moves have bad frames on block (df2 has -14f on block). I would put in a little op tier just for having the u1+2 that can dodge some attacks other characters cannot and the glock for zoning (its duckable tho). That's it.

As a Zafina main for 15 years. I think she needs buff. I don't get it why they would bring her back to the game only to destory her completly in T8. I personally love her gameplay mechanics in T7 rather than in T8. Well, will see if they would buff her later. She has really lots of potential but again they destroyed her. 🥺😭😭

As a Shaheen main i can say that Shaheen has some gimmicky moves, but they are nowhere as bullshit as the meta characters. I often find myself to work harder and work around opponents offense to get victory.

2:05 “All I need to do is duck to avoid his grabs” as you show a clip of his grab hitting crouching law😂 he definitely is broken

I was the flame ruler Leroy that played you and he is definitely wayyyyy weaker than he was in T7 but can still definitely work with him

As an alisa main in tekken 6, even i cant deal fighting against her in 8. She's gonna fly at you then suddenly abort then into destructive mode and boom, get combo'ed

Great Video!! Also appreciate you showing gameplay when you go over characters.

My mains in Tekken are Raven(I mainly use Raven because he resemble Naruto characters in his unorthodox fighting style approach and because he's very unique and authentic, he's my trump card back from T5) and I admit it that If you don't adapt to his matchup he can definitely be annoying to fight against him. Hwoarang and Jin( these two are like the symbol of Yin&Yang☯️ in my eyes, they were my mains when I was starting to play Tekken 3 for the first time many many years ago, I also like it to use Eddy Gordo as well because of his Capoeira style of fighting). My List of annoying characters that I don't like to encounter/face are: Jun, Victor, Azucena, Dragunov, Xiaoyu, King, Devil Jin, Reina(sometimes), Yoshimitsu, Feng, Jack8, Nina, Alisa and Lili. So almost the entire roster I know... 🤷🏻‍♂️😅🙆🏻‍♂️✌️

I mained Nina all throughout T7. She is 100% overpowered in this game. She has easy and consistent 50-60% damage combos WITHOUT walls or stage hazards. Made her safer on moves, 11f heat engager, forward 4 giving Nina her first instant, plus on block mid, still has all over her CH moves, deletes recoverable health with throws, can't chicken her reversal, great heat smash, top 5 wall carry in the game... brother... I feel like im playing a final boss character. This dude is like "I think Nina is fine." Even as a Nina main, I believe she needs to be nerfed.

Im a yoshimain since tekken 7 and i agree, hes a little bullshit in this game x) I mean he was bullshit in 7 too, but his poor balance made up for it. Now hes strong, has good frames, deals great damage AND has all of his gimmicks.

Agree with your list man. I put over 100 hours into this game already and can say this is accurate af

‏‪7:55‬‏ Are you kidding? I swear, he is a legendary character. You just have to train for him

As a Paul main, I wouldn’t say he’s OP. Yeah he’s strong but has zero neutral game. He’s all about patience and waiting for a whiff. Maybe I’m just biased but in the higher ranks it’s hard to climb with him you can’t just mash

My main used to be hwoarang. Then I started using lee. Never switched back.

"Please buff" Gets nerfed

I love how you acknowledge king unlike some of the idiots talking online saying hes broken, hes stronger than most of the cast, but he is not overpowered like feng or xiaoyu. The scrubs has been reaching blue ranks now by spamming, which really disappoints me bc tekken 7 was much harder to reach blue

King and Lily are so freakin broken I hate that Bletch lili with her hopping attack and king users are just spamming his rage.

Top 10 Tekken 8 Strongest fighters 1 - Kazuya Mishima 2 - Jin Kazama 3 - Paul Phoenix 4 - Lars Alexandrsson 5 - Feng wei 6 - King 7 - Yoshimitsu 8 - Hwoarang 9 - Brayan Fruy 10 - Ghost version of Heihachi Mishima 👻 ................Reasons............... Honestly : It's really the truth guys dont be angry * Jin has a purpose to win so he won * Paul almost defeated kazuya in TK1 : mentioned in TK Bloodline & he also defeated oger in TK3 * Don't Underestimate Kazuya wrt jin he was about to kill jin in TK8 & Evil always lost in fictions * Jin broken Leroy's leg in TK Bloodline in a single Kick so he's not listed * who knows heihachi can be a ghost similar to oger 😂 * King always lost in front of Armor King & he never won the Tournament * Yoshimitsu will won against Hwoarang ( a kid ) & Brayan ( a phycho )

Can't believe bro put devil jin and king on little op 😂

Yoshi OP? makes no damage, poor lows, poor neutrals and got a nerfed flash

The reason ppl play with draganov is because of sonic fox lbs

After playing Reina to tenryu, I can whole heartily say that 95% of people don't understand the match up at all. She has the lowest win rate online of all characters and I also believe that is because Reinas don't understand how to utilise the movelist. she's still A tier tho but definitely not broken all.

Victor is really easy. Im completely new to Tekken and new to fighting games in general and victor just plays the game for you. You can just spam 2 and get free damage and pressure in low ranks. And in higher ranks he still has really good moves like his power crush and such. Thats why i switched to lars to work on my fundamentals and make the game a little less cheesy. Lars is still pretty cheesy though but nowhere near as brain dead as victor.

I personally play with victor and omg this character is broken and very fun to play.

All the female characters are cracked

First tekken ever and liked how everyone looked but dragnuov was Russian so I wanted to play him and the fact I found out he doesn’t speak was awesome… than I find out how op and hated he is

Im a Jack Player - the only downside is he’s slow - only hwoarang fucks me up badly. 😂

This list is the most on-point I've seen so far, good stuff. 👍

Bro your tier list I wrong. What rank are you in Tekken.

Yeah the problem with king. He’s got nothing else but to powerbomb after every combo

Jack is pretty damn good because he has strong pokes, and his heat smash is dumb as hell because it has a 10 frame start up. Not to mention he’s always had a weird body size so it’s hard to get your spacing right against him.

If everyones op, noone is

Victor deserves to have to be in his own tier, everyone who plays him cant possibly be a sane person, no friends, no family, no one to love

Man there are so many honestly. Azu, Vic, Drag, Hwo, King, Law, Jun are the most annoying characters though.

As a Jin and Kazuya main I can say that they're both OP.

Dragunov, currently the S tier cancer in rank for me. Dude...

Lee needs to be buffed I use him in ranked and I do pretty good with him but I’m grafting too much to beat someone. I played a claudio just and he hit me 6 times and took all my life bar? They need to balance characters way more

Reina has 0 low game. Every char in the game can launch / grab off of lows She only has high / mids. If ur losing against a char who only relies on those you suck

I agree i think Alisa needs to go to the broken columb.

My brain has turned to mush from all these braindead azucena, jun, and xiao players doing mix ups. I can’t tell if I’m suffering from the absolute sheer bombardment of low combo starters mixed with high combo starters or if it’s just a skill issue.

Ohh this tier list isn’t serious, bro had me going for a sec

Looking over your list I would move: Jack to a little OP, Leo to Perfect, Shaheen to Perfect, Lee to a little OP, Zafina to Please Buff, Feng to Broken, Jin to Broken, Devil Jin to Broken, Victor down to a little OP, and Yoshimitsu down to Perfect (although he's not lol). I don't have enough knowledge on the bears to comment on them.

Aye appreciate the shout out and yes Raven can be annoying

Great video bro. Keep it up

Characters like Victor will kill this game

I’m ngl law is pretty annoying and broken in this one should be up a bit higher

I started to main victor, with by learning a few combos, i realised one hes a little broken or simply people dont know his moves just yet. I havnt decided. Im on reds with a few hours of play though 😅

What you said about Reina is really true she is a lot easier to deal with than victor i just be like wanting to close the game when I fight victor and I’m fujin 😅

Alice is really broken. Her attacks are unbalanced and fast, blocking gives almost no advantage especially on her saw attacks,

I thought to buy tekken 8 since rn I am playing tekken 7 but my main in tekken 7 is drag but the amount of back lash drag is getting is crazy so should I main him in tekken 8 ? (I like the character design so much)

Leroy and zafina took the biggest fall from grace 😅

Raven above nina is insanity

Im a Leroy main, any tips?

Honestly as a raven main ill put him in between lil buff and perfect not to be bias but his attack are kinda slow compared to most characters but his heat tho i will say it's kinda supid mainly kuz the range of it but that's what ill say But honestly beside that i agree with ur list besides Kazuya beings at perfect he foreshore a lil op

everyone have problems against king because of his grabs but its so easy to break you literally have to press one a button and its done

You should have created another tier for drag

Azucena high and low counter in her stance is Literally pointless Because When ur in the stance u force a 50/50 or poke if u Play against a Good Player her counter never gonna happen even once not to Downplay her she is really Good but it's Not Because of this stance

I think feng is fine! ~ No Sane human ever

I know it’s skill issue but I still gotta warn everybody about Law’s “i’m a dragon” 🐉 grab. Shit is damn near impossible to break out of 😭 like my nigga I can break out of everybody else’s grabs & king’s chain grabs wit no problem but THAT SHIT ! Idk 🤣 be careful out there shit gettin spooky

Lily Nina and that goofy robot chick with the chainsaw arms are among the most annoying characters to play this game seems to cater towards button mashing endlessly into a wall then some how continue to combo as your on the ground tracking while you try and roll out of the way or some how connect an attack as you just try to stand and forget about laying there they just continue to spam

King is SSS+ rank bro he is too strong and annoying

You gotta learn Azucena’s match up if you honestly think it’s that bad

They Massacred my Boy “Leroy”

Raven isn't op at all. His clones are duckable and steppable. You can check him after a heat clone and is super unsafe on a lot of his mixups.

I’m a Steve main and mastering his moves is quite challenging but also quite rewarding.

Was a Raven, now a Dragunov. Drag is Broken.

The most Broken Asf Character is MadMike himself.

Jack is a nightmare

Bro really put feng in the same category as kazuya

Hwoarang, Feng, Xiaoyu, Draganov need a BS tier. Yup a new BS tier.

Im going to be starting to play tekken again i havent played it since tekken 3 lol im thinking of playing with jun or how, i will try all of them but jun and how are my go to players

BRING BACK EDDIE! !!

Claudio is bad. He got 20 moves nerfed in either 1 to 3 aspects. 2 A tier moves removed from Tekken 7. His lows are all terrible with the exception of ss4. From 7 hit counter hit launchers to only 1 now. No grab game, stagger game weakened. His new moves are dog poop compared to what the rest of the cast got. I did a full breakdown a while back tired of people saying he's ok when he isnt. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/atCShtOpyqndkn0.htmlsi=DvWraL3K4RI8diG-

Victor isn’t broken. Everything is either stepable or punishable.

Victor once you know the match up is decent, I would say swap him with Feng, Feng is too strong, Reina is only strong in the hands of an advanced player

As a Lili main being along with Asuka on tierlist put my soul to reset muahaha☕️

Honestly ngl as kazuya player I think he's a little underwhelming, mostly due to his being. Honestly one of the worst in the game. You have some good options but rest? Why even use them. And being minus 14 on. His heat smash is kind of also a big question mark because it deals less damage than heaven's gate hellsweep (even though it's launchable on hit) but it's kind of, might as well use it over heatsmash. It is a bit of whining maybe, but honestly I'd say kazuya needs some buffs to compete with other Mishimas because if you in it just for the win and not the characters devil jin or even reina (who I think is bit more perfectly balanced than kazuya) are better for less investment

jack 8 and shaheen are broken . lars , howarang , alisa are not that op they are perfect at top level play , zafina need buff really weak atm no good safe launcher , leo Op , panda no one care 😅

Lol idk see how all these new comers of Tekken are upset wit Jun and get smoked by us. Like idk how she is and reina isnt lol.

Victor IS strong or not ? I want to Begin the rank match, ans i try to use kazuya,😢he is to hard top use and everybody knows his match UP 😢

Dude you just need to learn Lars matchup

Leroy is a very good fighter !!!!

I couldn’t watch the video anymore after the 2 min mark due to bro bro bro

When are they bringing out Julia?

Jun needs a damage nerf

bruv

I totally agree with yout tier list, it’s cool to finally see a character tier list made by a person who has common sense 🤌🏽❤️

Don't come after raven, hes not easy to do well with and has a very low character usage so people anit running into him every other match

Everyone is broken if ya dont know the match ups
