TEKKEN 7 |OT| How I killed your mother

b+1+2 is your best easy punish tool. b+1 is your fastest interrupt tool.

ws+3, SS+4, qcf,3, uf+4, f+3,4 are all launchers. qcf,3 can also be mixed up with qcf,1 for sneaky low hits.

from there do a simple df+1,1, f+1+2, f+3,4, b+1+2 for around 70 damage.

?

Tekken cosplay is fun

I used to do a similar customization with Feng in TTT2. Looked a lot Yun because of his ponytail.

Is this game in any way newbie friendly? For a fighting game and an entry into the series?

E: And if so, PS4 (non-pro) vs PC (running a 970)?

Man, "connection to opponent has been lost" is real bad on pc too.
Okay, and just now I got some insta connections again, instead of every 6th try.

Netcode is great but getting a connection is wonky. 1st Dan now, yeah :p

Tekken is newbie friendly, easy moves und only 4 buttons. But doesn't expect a tutorial.


With a 970 you will get a way better experience than on ps4

So are 10 frames the limit for safe moves? Is -10 on block safe and once it goes to -11 on block you can get punished?

How is Kazuma (I think that's her name... The mother) in the tier list? She's really fun.

I usually hate shrine maiden trope characters but I'm really connecting with her for some reason.

Her tier position will make no difference if I play her or not, just curious.

No, the fastest moves are 10 frames so jab punishing starts at -10. -9 is where it's safe.

Kazumi is a fun character to roll with. Besides, she has a Real Tiger Uppercut!

I've only ever played Tekken 3 and 5, but I'm doing not too bad at the game so far.

This Tekken 7 (GTX970) is how it runs on my system with a GTX970. Got everything set to the max at 1080P (Blur disabled).

I'd recommend getting the game.

So thanks to Aris's great off the cuff tutorials and the ability to practice against "live" opponents in treasure battle I've gone 10 - 0 in my first 10 online ranked matches.

Not bad for my first ever Tekken if I do say so myself.

Been playing more Chloe and I've developed a bad habit of using her 3,4 string a lot for some reason. I think it's because it seems like it can hit-confirm for counter-hit combo, but it can't. It's something like -13 or 14 so I'm just waiting for my opponent to punish me hard.

Honestly, if I could change her right at this second is to 1) make her 3,4 string a 14 frame hit-conformable punisher like Lee's 3,3. It doesn't have to launch, but only having 2,2 or 4 or WS 1,4 for -14 moves kind of stinks. 2) It would be nice to have a command for back-turn like Lili and Feng has.

Other than that I'm getting good use out of WR3 as it jumps over lows, gives hard knockdown (belly down), catches people rolling on the ground, and is plus on block. It kind of reminds me of Dragunov's WR2 but maybe not quite as good. I'm also trying to incorporate b+4 more, as it covers a lot of space, is -9, but pushes them back a bit too. +8 on hit, CH launcher too.

^^^Good players have memorized a lot of common attack sequences (canned strings) and can block them on reaction. Mix it up more with a variety of custom poking and power hits to keep them on their toes. Also, realize that no one knows everything - figure out where their frame data is lacking and exploit it.

As said above, -9 is safe from i10 jabs.

However, keep in mind the range created between characters after blocking since sometimes the pushback is so much that an i10 jab won't reach someone who is even -15 on block.

Some moves characters do are really unsafe, so if you did one of those and they blocked you are open to punishment

My strategy is to always block high and mid. Always just take the low. Some characters have low combo starters so they're the exception. But usually those moves are easy to see coming. Just keep blocking mid and high until you get familiar with character strings.

As for offense who do you play? I play Steve so I struggle a bit as well. Someone here might be able to help.

Anyone know how to break Eliza's feeding throw?

I just got wrecked by someone hitting me with that over and over, I tried each button individually, 1+3, 2+4 and none of that worked.

How the hell do you perform Feng's lingering shadow. I hit the command cleanly but I must be messing up the timing because the move doesn't come out.

Throws can be broken by just pressing 1 or 2 if it's a normal grab *the slam on the ground and bite is that*

If it's the one where she grabs you from the front and does a teleport combo to you you need to press both punches.

Ay TekkenGAF, I'm sorry to ask you guys this but who is the most newbie-friendly in tutorials other than Aris? I really liked his stuff but I just found out about his Cross Assault BS and giant non-apology. Really left a terrible taste in my mouth.

Whyyy doesn't Xiaoyu have a uniform outfit, or at least a blouse with a tie, she even has an icon (From TTT2) in her school uniform.

I just want a proper tie damn it.

PC version has something superior.

*Turn BG music to zero. Play your own whatever song on your PC via wimamp, foobar, etc. No need for Tekken Jukebox.

*This applies to pretty much all PC games.
