Yeeeeeeeees. Thanks Kadey.
King is finally out of the turquoise ranks
#jaguars
he can never be used in a Ranked match again
So sick... and that's what they can do with lag
Sometimes I'm glad there's no online pair play lol

Don't think of it like "I'm not playing Tekken until I can get movement down" and such. Still play Tekken but just make small goals for yourself every time you play. For example, in one match, just say I'm going to punish an unsafe move my enemy does with this move at least 5 times throughout this match. Don't just set the goal to win, set the goal to apply certain tools your character has. In the next match, another example can be duck all the high parts of a string your opponent does and punish with a while rising move accordingly. And simultaneously you just practice backdash cancelling. Break it down systematically and you can efficiently level up. Don't worry about winning just yet, that will come in due time.
And thanks for the regards
Those were some amazing prodcution values you did for the stream page. That must have taken quite a while to do.Lee Chaolan

Congrats! Welcome to the club
Yup, just in time for my bday.
I am now as old as Jin when he entered Tekken 3!
Kadey, just to add to what AAK posted, this game is a never-ending journey to improvement (and don't take it as a bad thing please). Even the pros learn something from time to time. The satisfying part of playing this game is learning to do something and actually use it to win a match. So don't get intimidated about not having time or worry about not being good enough, you will be on time, just enjoy the game. You will improve as long as you got good folks to compete with...

You stop playing ranked at the Yellow ranks, dude.
Good job, though! Good shit, also to AAK and Wonkey for being able to do combos in lag!

Wanna pick up Hwoarang after finals hype. That'd be like 10th character, I just can't never settle on one/two.
Btw second gif from top is actually spliced from 2 gifs from 2 videos of different qualities. That juggle started at end of the yt clip and continued in second clip. Kinda bizarre it looks the same throughout both videos I download in different resolution.

Congratulations on your victory AAK. You guys were really going at it and the matches were great. You and Wonkey are truly pros even while playing in lag. Tournament players. Nice.
Yeah. Everything that was said is true. We all know Tekken has a much bigger learning curve than any other fighter. What I know now is from playing the series since the beginning, knowing some moves and doing basic stuff. This is one game where you do need to spend a good amount of time in training mode learning how to approach certain things.
With SFIV, I just kinda picked a character and learned to do certain moves and picked up on habits while actually playing an opponent. And once you played any SF game, you have a good background to help you with other 2D fighters because of the universal inputs and such. Tekken is different because of it being more faster paced and it leaves less room for error. There is so much thought process to knowing the spacing, the move to use, the timing, everything. And the series has a much more concentrated higher level of play than other fighters because of the way it is. For a beginner it is much more grueling. For me it's just the lack of time to invest in the game.

We can practice online if you ever want to Kadey.
She's really REALLY good at annoying your enemy. The thing about Asuka is that she is one of the easier characters to play in this game.
Break your opponent's defense with quick mids and low pokes and grabs. Some great poke moves include d/f+1 ; d/b+3 ; b+2,1 and do some grabs once in a while. When your opponent whiffs anything, she has one of the best whiff punishers in the game which is f+2. That move is also tag bufferable so it can result in A LOT of damage. Another whiff punisher if you're unsure about whether or not it'll connect is f,f+2. f,f+2 has a followup that is 1 which is safe but high or she can follow that up with 1+2 which is mid, does more damage, but is unsafe. If the f,f+2 hits any followup is guaranteed. They do a lot of damage too especially in rage mode.
The cool thing about her f+2 is that you can also cancel it and use it as a tool to advance into your opponent. If you do f+2~d you basically dash forward and cancel into your crouching stance where you can do her FC,d/f,d,d/f+1+2 launching grab among other mixups.
Asuka also probably the best "get-off-me" move in the game tied with Lars's u/f+3. It's her d+3+4 can-can kick. The first kick is low and and the second kick is high and it's absolutely safe. On counterhit, it launches and it's tag bufferable. Also, it crushes all low hitting moves simultaneously and is 14 frames only. Those are some extremely good qualities for a move.
Her SS+2 is a really good evasive move but it's punishable with 12 frame moves. However one of coolest tools is f+4, it's a high tracking kick but it's beauty is that it's +1 on block! That's why if your opponent blocks it and pushes any button to retaliate you are guaranteed to get a counter hit on them. I usually follow up with d/f+1,2 in case they do some kind of crushing move but you can do a lot of juicy things after that.
And of coarse Asuka has a reversal that parries almost all mid or high hitting attacks EXCEPT for knees, elbows, heads, bodies, and some aerial attacks like a dropkick for example.
I learned her after I got my butt kicked by Howling in a Montreal tournament

Why on earth would you gif that failure. -_-
Regardless, thanks for the gifs! That last one reminds me to that I should use DVJ's snapback item move a little more haha.

That gif is a testament of evasion and jf inputs on 1 bar lagfest. Impressive.
If you used DJ from the start you could've taken it.

Currently on a 43 game winstreak. If he gets to 50, which he surely will, then Rip is supposedly gonna give him money.
*edit* Well I got ahead of myself, the streak ends at 45.
Guys I'm such a noob. I had no idea you could charge Miguel's d/b+1. There were a few times when I saw my opponent spin around after getting hit by it but I thought it was cause they were trying to tag out. Turns out when you charge it the opponent spins like crazy when hit and you can get a full combo in. 66 damage sure does beat 44 damage. Now if only I was good with Miguel.

Was feeling good yesterday, 9-6 in ranked. Today, 3-15, 13 straight losses. -___- I'll stop sucking one day. Maybe when I learn to stop playing while sleepy.

Why no more Mike Woodson av?????
Well it's also slower so that's why you rarely see it used.
Even that would be considered a hassle to me. When I'm all settled down at night, I just want to relax and multitask doing various things. Usually having some random stream on one monitor and surfing on the other and chatting with whomever. If I do play a game, it's just something easy pick up and play for a little while. I know having practice sessions with any kind of game would require some patience and full attention to make the most of. Most of the time, I'm not in that kind of mood. But thanks for the offer.

He needs to make a comeback once the playoffs start.
Guys, I've wanted this ever since I saw it at funcoland around 17 years ago. I am happy to say that it is finally mine.

Fun games Wonkey. At least I won one of them. ;_;
As you rank up you'll definitely see very skilled opponents. But you should be fine in the beginner ranks of online play. Also, you don' thave to play ranked match, there is simple player matches that you can participate in as well for fun.

Razor rush, sweep and ff+3 is all you need.
GGs! Screw Leo's f+1+2 lol.

lol, I was cracking up after hitting like 6 of those in a row. Should have spammed it more.
What was that combo you did off of Feng's d/b+4? I must steal it.
Flying Wonkey

Feng/Leo (forgot which stances are which haha)
FENG d/b+4, 2~1 B! LEO ssl 3,2,4 > 1~d > 1, 2 FENG 3~4, 3 = 97 dmg
Because who says you can't get high damage off a low sweep?

Oh and by the way Nobi and Only Practice recently vsed each other online for anyone that's interested.
https://twitter.com/bemmi0/status/308971989350096896
You can download some of the replays from this by looking their names up on the leader board. (eg Miguel top rank > nobi_bemi > download replays)
and I just heard from Jung over on the Green Arcade stream that the next Tekken League on CafeId stream (on the 16th) will feature Knee, Hao, Only Practice, Saint and Triple H. Fun times all round.
Ahhh, so that's why I don't see anymore death match vids of OP... he became an online warrior
And man, it's amazing how many characters Nobi can proficiently play. And man, I really REALLY miss Tekken Crash/Busters
He needs to make a comeback once the playoffs start.

That's awesome and very classic.
Yeah, I'm much pretty much the exact way after a long day of work. Thankfully, I still got some free days to just play and practice before school begins.
