Is there a way to get a hold of a support agent or something about this?

Become my grappler, once more.

Last post got taken down for low effort. Fair, I'mma try to help a couple of you out here. Quick side note: Yes, I don't like the game. Yes, I still like my character enough to have fun. Yes, I still have to play the current game to get better because no other Tekken game is supported. The game is widely critiqued, don't act like ts is new. Anyway. Got this promo off a demo to a VERY salty Asuka trash talker lmao.

Kay, so, weirdly enough getting to GoD6 was easier to me than 5. Why? I don't know. Here's what I did:

1. Whiff punishing to the point where I made them TERRIFIED to press a button that wasn't connecting and that opens up the ability for me to clip them coming in. These are two aspects I've trained since I was even starting out. If your character has solid keep out, practice this ad nauseum. Get to where you can launch jabs and electrics on whiff.

2. Understand your approach when they don't want to engage. A lot of players will just stand full screen and do jack and all, often times focusing on the former. When that happens, understand your best tools for approach. With Feng, it's snake dash into WS1. That's such a good get in tool that sets up for me to focus on his other (mediocre) tools. Some characters have amazing running moves (Drag) and some characters have a 50/50 on approach (Vic.) Avoid your bad incomings, like Feng's WR3 is really mediocre.

3. Frame trap them for easy chip. Do you know how many times I've spammed B3 into nothing and just looped it? Lol, a lot. People are so terrified to press in these instances that you can often times get like a quarter+ a health bar just from chip. This is arguably one of my favorite changes in this game as it shut down turtling without making offense overwhelming. (Side note: This shit is fake. You can ss and launch.)

4. Know your punishes. Yeah, this one's the easiest one I can tell you. You don't HAVE to know every punish, but know what's punishable when/where/why. Key moves. Understand a character's key moves and how to punish them. B1+2 (shoulder) often goes unpunished/only jab punished even though it's -19. It IS fast, but make sure you get more than just a jab punish.

And last, but CERTAINLY not least...

5. WATCH YOUR REPLAYS. So often I have someone go "HOW DO I DEAL WITH X?" and my first response is "Did you watch the replay to try to find out?" "Well, no-" There you go. The replay tool is *the* greatest weapon in your arsenal.

Otherwise, rank is fake and Roger is about to make me bald.

And will continue to be butt. You wanna get to god 6? do what you're doing now but faster.

I wonder what its moveset is gonna be... and does this mean we're going to have to fight Emerald underwater? Also, I can't wait for Ultimate's reveal. It was my favorite out of the fight-able weapons

Any second now...

The first time this season I feel accomplished in my rank because I'm starting to run into pro players, oldheads, top notch content creators, and likewise. I will say, getting to God5 from God4 was easier than getting to God1 from God in s2. Hell the climb from TE to God3 took me like... 9-ish hours? Across 3-4 gaming sessions.

I think this is where I'm going to take a break until the next balance patch as there's characters I'm *really* unhappy with. Victor, Law, Kuni. That being said, here's some advice that'll help you at any rank:

1. Use your frames. People mash too much, panic too much. Keep your pressure frame tight and lovingly sprinkle in frame traps. Every character has them, figure out yours!

2. Small Tekken is wounded but not dead. A lot of characters have really solid counterhit buttons now or strings that basically do the job for them. These are hilariously valuable tools if your character has them.

3. Safe launchers are crack. Force the mix up from dumbass low to safe launcher and watch them crumble.

4. Don't play Feng/get good at whiff punishing. You'd be surprised how easy whiff punishing actually is.

5. Watch your replays. That's the biggest takeaway I can give anyone. Watch them replays, see what you did wrong, see what you can duck, sidestep, hopkick, etc etc. Replays are everybody's greatest tool and makes labbing ridiculously easy combined with sites like Okizeme.

Alright. That's it. TIO!

Fucked around and went looking for the dragon scrolls but all I found was this fuckin ice like I was on the border.
