Me a green rank watching orange ranks play: They look good. Peter: This is bad. Me: Yes they are bad.

Orange, the most dangerous rank range IMHO. This is where your setups get good but is prone to developing bad habits. Was stuck around this and Red rank range for the longest time. At this point, it's best to start learning about your opponents rather than focusing on your own offense.

Our boy PeterYMao helping our brothers climb out of orange ranks here.

Somehow I made it to Puple Ranks (Revered Ruler) and yet I still have this bad habit of trying to attack after being blocked. This is a major tip though. You literally have to abide by this if you wanna get good. At this point, my problem is thinking the combo is over and it's not. Then I receive a counter hit.

BEEN waiting for this one, Thanks again Peter. Hope you're doing well and keep up the awesome content! 🌟

I don’t know how you’ve been man its been like 2 years since your last post. But your guides had been so helpful. Thank you.

Your videos are an incredible help. I really like your attitude, tone and how you structure your videos. It's very helpful as a returning player.

Playing somewhere around blue-deep purple ranks, and still enjoying watching these videos very much! I still remember that I learnt about framedata and turns from your videos, and just wanted to say thanks for the incredible work that you are doing!

One of the most helpful series for 3D fighters in general. Keep up the awesome work!

Hey Peter, thanks for the feedback, I didn't even realise that was something I did frequently! Just goes to show how bad I've burnt in that autopilot, I'll try in the future to be a bit more aware of what my flowcharts are and to start using moves with an express purpose rather than as just mental breathing space. Keep up the good work man, I've hit reds since I sent those in but I certainly don't feel red yet, look forward to the next video :)

Great content, really wonderful delivery. can't wait to see more from you!

This level of commentary is so helpful and your voice is perfect for commentary. You've earned a sub amigo

Great tips! Your previous tips allowed me to reach orange ranks, even if I just started playing 2mos ago. And now here I am!

Useful as always thanks Peter

These top 5 rank mistakes series are so entertaining to watch actually, regardless whether you gain anything from them or not (most likely you will). This is the type of content FGC needs, entertaining yet informative. Some people call it edutainment xD. Thanks for the content!

PeterYMao deserves every Ad-revenue and Patreon pledges he gets... Also, I can't wait for the Tekken God Prime Mistakes video! :) Have a nice day Peter!

I can't wait for Top 5 mistakes TWT final players do :)

Another Awesome Video Bro!

Thanks, just got to orange ranks and I can already identify some mistakes I've been doing, namely side stepping, or lack of sidestepping to be more precise. Deeply apreciated.

Not sure how I found your channel, but I'm so so glad I did. Very helpful and insightful content!

How did I just find out about this dood. Sick video man. Hyped for purple 🙌

Nice as usual!

Very informative as always!!

The string part hit me hard, im around ruler ranks, but still struggle with mu knowledge, strings in particular. Am too lazy to lab charactets i rarely see, so im at a totall loss when fighting against them. So many things to know..

Great advice as always. Can’t wait to see what you say about my ranks.

Thank you very much PeterYMao! I am about to get into the the orange ranks but I certaintly do these mistakes very often.

Finally I’ve been waiting for this video, thanks man the others helped.

Even though I'm still at the bottom of the ladder these videos are super useful for me! Another great video as always Peter

Hey look I'm in this. Nice video once again Peter! Appreciate you!

Man, I'm ecstatic to see you start getting the reception you deserve.

Sir, I have just discovered your channel and it is fantastic. I am now Seiryu, but I love all your advice. You are so nice to listen too. Instant Subscribe. I hope you will be back with Tekken 8

I could barely reach Warrior up until recently but now I am hovering around Savior/Genbu. Getting blown up by good players. Watched all your "mistakes" videos and they're really good and highlight a lot of my bad habits/mistakes. One thing that's the hardest to improve for me is throw breaking. I don't see them unless somebody is really obvious. My reactions are just not there. The only time I break them it's if press a button by accident... subbed to the channel great content so far.

Amazing video

Good and very useful video! Hope you do more clips for Tekken players :)

These are very helpful vids. I have remained a red rank for a while. Red is the highest i have gotten in Tekken. And though this is a orange rank vid, these tips apply to many ranks in they have helped me a lot. Last night I played after a Hiatus and the Fram trap tip was a big help. My Geese and Negan improved alot cause of this. Looking forward to the red rank Vid.

hey bro just want to say, watching all of your videos is a pleasure. I am really shocked by the production quality, editing, and sound mixing. It all sounds great, and I wish for you to enjoy more success as your content is some of THE absolute best Tekken content, right up there with TBS. I hope you stick around, because I am sure you'll be blowing up once Tekken 8 comes out when we're all 50 years old

The Legend is back.

Nice job peter keep it up man.

Great timing! I just become overlord recently. Time for red ones :)

Finally time to improve! I had fallen off of Tekken for a minute and ended in Usurper, now I gotta get my game up. Thank you, Peter!

I just hit Orange thanks to your advices, perfect timing for me to get to red, thank you again ❤️

Good one !

Top 1 Mistake Orange Rank players make: Not playing Gigas

Thanks for the video man!! Help so much i’m savior man

I just found out about this channel and series really helpful and love the way you explain things definitely worth the sub. Question,,, how far are you going to do this series. I’m assuming at higher ranks they should kinda know what’s what so maybe Blue ranks??

11:28 this thing is very real. sometimes even the fastest poke become more telegraphed than the snake edge

This is an amazing series. Hope to see Blue ranks soon.

I gotta say, from leaving the US and going to South Korea learning match ups is crazy good they don’t really rematch tho... So you learn quickly on the fly

A good thing to note about in #3 is that some of those strings are natural on hit, I believe all of them are delay-able as well so you can fish for the first move to hit and hit confirm the entire string. For example Bryan’s sway back 2,4. You can fish for the sway back 2, visually see the move hit and press 4 to complete the string Excellent video btw bro! I’d love to see more

This guy Peter is the best, real shit 👏🏾

very good video!

thanks for this video peter 😘

Great upload dude. This is actually true mistakes ppl in orange make. In my katarina video I literally got to Genbu in 70 wins by just doin 112 into CH df4 and snake edging lol worked all the way to red rank

Thank you for all the effort Sir. Requesting you to please make videos on frame traps and dealing with df1, jab and low hit presurre. I am red but I struggle vs Jin, Kazumi, Nina, Law and sometimes Bryan.

such a good series

Got to byakko since the video on yellow rank mistakes... Super helpful, my main issue was whiffing I think

I have a habit of pausing before hellsweeps sometimes and can get me in trouble. On top of trying to not do this consistently I've also started using my tells to be deceptive. Turn it into its own mixup by setting up the mindset that I'm doing my bad habit.

About to get into Orange, I'm pretty fine with most of these already (vids in my channel for proof), I just need more application of the very last one I can be horrendously prone to autopiloting as Lars is so seldom played

Just got to orange Ranks. Gonna check what to improve on before I suffer.

I would also recommend if you're not sure if you're minus or plus at a weird long block stun that may look like plus generally don't push any buttons. If they're exceptions do find it out during the replay with frame data on

I was going to hold off on watching this until I actually get Vanquisher rank, but I'm currently at Usurper and already getting insanely good players from orange ranks. May as well study them early :/

glad u made this one of the reasons I don't really bother with learning matchups yet is because the chance of you running into that character you're having trouble with is pretty slim for example I have a Zafina problem I can go in the lab learning Zafina punishing moves but by the time I run into a zafina i already forgot everything simply because not a lot of ppl play her

Great stuff peter, even tho climbing ranked will be even harder now T.T

Damn I really felt that one Gonna do my best to improve!

Sorry Peter I haven't submitted mine, unfortunately, there's one person that went positive in our district and we went on lockdown so I couldn't get out. I just upload and play on internet cafes 😅 But I'm glad this guide made it! 😁 I dont know much about frames but that tip number 5 you simplified it to me, and of course all the way down to number 1, gotta start to stop my bad habits that were mentioned 😂 thanks peter!

Do you plan on doing this for every ranks? I think it would be really helpful.

thanks for helping us become better Bryan players

luv u sir

Glad to see that my instincts about match-up knowledge and frame data being what I need to progress was correct. Feel that as an Overlord King I know my own character pretty well and that my fundamentals are okay, it's the other characters that I need to start understanding better now. My list of "problem characters" is essentially "most of the cast". Or I know how to deal with, say, a green rank Steve but a more advanced purple rank is going to work me over because my depth of knowledge isn't good enough. I fought a Fujin rank Asuka not so long ago and I think the final score was 20:3. Mostly because beyond a few pieces of knowledge I just do not understand how to fight Asuka. From what I've seen fighting higher rank players, their fundamentals are better on average, but it's superior game-knowledge that puts them where they are.

Hi Peter! 😃 Oh I was there for a long time but now I feel even worse in red ranks. Just need to play more again 🤔

I can agree with most of these tips but I think Steve’s b1, 2 can be good to throw out occasionally cause unlike all the rest of the strings Steve has tons of options like a flicker cancel or crouch cancel or his weird junkyard style string, and in my experience it can be kinda good to mix up with a duck forward after a flicker cancel. It might not be too powerful but it’s not like every other string where you can just flash duck when you see the first hit. People don’t really crouch after b1 cause of all of Steve’s options, but what do I know.

Never start bothering with frame but after get out from green I start learn to recognize opponent moves and 1,4 instinctively when block stuffs that should send me fly, then slowly working up 4,3 and df2,1 and finally Jet Upper their butt if -14 or more. Realizing I've been letting so many moves get away without launch punish makes me wanna learn more about each MU and frame data.

@PeterYMao Great video as always! I'm curious about this part at 15:29 and was wondering if you could explain a bit more since it's definitely something I think could help me for character match ups Is it a general rule that if the opposing character has better keep out than you that you should avoid using keep out and play more aggressive? I've always thought it better to force the opponent to play more aggressive as otherwise I feel like I'm letting them play their preferred playstyle otherwise. For example, if I'm up against Bryan using a character with less range/keep out options, I force him to be the aggressor and I play more defensively, since he doesn't have as good poking or as many options to get plus frames, and if I start playing too aggressive I'll open myself up

can't wait for blue/purple

I really like this episode the most, special thanks for encouraging people checking unknown moves with 10f, it's really priceless. PS don't get too predictable with these checks though ;)

what is in common that we share the same name Peter lol. I am in the last four highest ranks. Actually I have stuck at Tekken King for months (I uploaded one promotion to Emperor video on my channel but only has 20 views lol) . At high level rank, these kind of mistakes are unforgivable. People not only know to punish u perfectly, they are also very quick to learn your game play and habits. IMHO, the best way to rank up in Orange is to focus on spacing and try to use safe moves. Learn not to push buttons and patiently wait for your turn. Don't gamble too much on 50/50 moves.

Two part question, what rank are you and do I need flogged for not knowing?

Good advice, regardless of ranks

main Paul Overlord ,I do most of the mistakes you mentioned in the video 🤣

I reckon a top 5 common launch punishment moves for character would be Sik...

5:19 you're wrong about that, Heihachi's hellsweep after they get hit by the first low and then blocks the 2nd is only -10 and it has a stagger block

Yea that B1 still hurts from that day...

Trust me *Peter* ... This video didn't *whiff* It Fisherman's hooked us with wahahaha

Huh...Back to replays for me...Gonna need to make sure im not doing some things...Cheers for the info!*tips hat* 5mistake learn matchups huh? I know matchups heavily depend on your character also but will you do a season 4 anti-"character" guide? Like for example Anti-Armor-king guide. Sidestep right. Armor king loves these moves. Also need to learn throw countering. All of it lighting fast. I dont see many people (myself included) having a very long attention span to know every move. Or people could just play the video as soon they see their new online opponent loading into the game and could get the info before the second round is over. Maybe at the end of the video it would turn into a video FOR Armor king that shows moves he should consider so people woudent side-step right (i think downforward 2 catches them). have a graph that what your gameplay should be as AK. 1 graph says poke and pictures of all the characters underneath it that Armor king should be poking against. 2.Graph says rushdown and pictures of all the characters you should be crazy aggressive against etc. Last graph could "special" that just means that nothing else works besides research. Hope the suggestion made some sense, wasent total trash and it could work somehow. It would be a ton of work but i would grateful for it.

As an orange rank (Savior) Bryan player, I see all of these mistakes in my gameplay.

I random launcher'd my way to Genbu and now I'm stuck, so I need to start from the teal rank video lol

Bad strings may be a habit I need to drop

How can I know which ss direction is better for each matchup?

So how do you know how your character should be playing the match up? 15:53

Bruh. I totally forgot to send in games. Time to grind for reds lol. I am getting pretty close to reds though. Just need to make the last push on a good day.

Rank: Overlord (Hei) My mistake score: 3/5 This is my first tekken i play competitively and ive been playing for 3 years now. My biggest weakness is character matchup knowledge, and having to buy a character to lab em doesn't help.

also what do I do if I have a problem(in literally every fighting game I have ever played) where I want to play literally every character. I started with Kazuya and thought he'd be my main forever, but after realizing I can win much more often with characters I have spent 2% of the time I spent on Kaz, I am discouraged from maining him. I really hate when I do this but I can't help but want to try legit every character. I know I will learn moves and match ups better but I'll undoubtedly be spreading myself too thin.

Another cool vid I have a recommendation Why not do a video about timing(specifically Bryans f3), its a short but important part of Tekken that I see a bunch of people ignoring

hey how high of a rank do you review? I'm mostly in red rank with my main in eternal ruler

I'm looking forward to the red and purples since that's where I am

I can't believe it In literaly 4 days, I went from juggernaut to savior and I can't thank enough I hope I can improve more and beat fakumrham for once (I main DVJ)

hey peter can i have that link for key moves I dont remember which lesson it was in

Autopiloting is still a very common mistake seen in red ranks too (I confess as being one of them lmao)

how to counter Leroy generally and how to counter leroy's parries. some ppl can be toxic and just use the taunt parry and it can get very frustrating not knowing what to do. where to attack when he taunt parry and more.😢.
