Reversals and Countering Them - TEKKEN 8 #TEKKEN #tekken8 #fgc #gaming #xbox #ps5 #steam

You used to be able to chicken Asuka... those were the days...

For everyone asking about chickening, it doesn't work in TEKKEN 8.

[kodokijo]

asuka striking a pose and getting rammed by feng is stupidly funny😂

[lucadesanctis]

Proud Leroy player. Bring respect to the Grandmaster of drip

[MYCRYL]

King: Countering reversals? That's cute.

[tacitozetticci]

Can't believe they've removed chickens

something to note about jun, her genjutsu stance (f+3+4) parries throws and lows so keep that in mind.

[leonstanable]

knees/elbows/shoulders/heat burst/heat smash/rage art/airborne moves/throws/lows. all of these beat reversals

[ejrodriguez]

Alisa's model change is soooo underrated, it is also a counter attack. The best one I know

[TREALxx]

People forget feng also have a reversal

[Skelegoblin]

Fkn LOVE fighting asuka. Hit em with the power crush, power crush, Muscle Buster to counter the parry

[Carlisho]

Leroy (sadly) cannot parry everything anymore, all moves related to Heat and Rage Arts are a no go, as well as the Knees and Elbows rule.

[mikz]

doing a reversal on electric is always satisfying

[odd]

As Dragunov I love it but man is that window tint. Kinda wished it was a frame or two longer

[floatinsardines]

One cool thing to note for Bryan players. His b4 is best to punish a reversal because it gives an ff2 follow-up and it's fb2 on the wall, get's wall combo'd and brings up bryan's strong wall game from there.

[fableshearth]

Glad to know dripping combos isn't just me

[Triniwn]

Other things that beat parries:
Weapons
Projectiles (ie Jun light beams or DJ red stuff)
Airborne Attacks (hop kick/orbital, new in tekken 8)
Any armor break attack (Heat Burst/Heat Smash/Rage art/ unblockable)
Parry startup is 5 frames so if you have significant enough frame advantage, you can CH a parry

Basically, don't parry unless you know your opponent is going to autopilot into a parryable move and you can't beat it with step/block/duck/mash . Parrying against characters like King who are all grabs and elbows or Victor who are all guns and knives is inadvisable. Parrying against Steve is pretty free tho lol.

[shizamza]

As someone learning Leroy. This only makes me stronger

[Vaenus.]

"Knees and Elbows" Does Bryan DF, 2 and instantly get's parried by Asuka.

[meh_so_what]

I was expecting this to be a how to chicken vid.. chicken was a mechanic in previous tekken games to counter parries.

>"Leroy parries everything"
If I recall correctly, if his leg goes up he'll parry lows and mids - if he puts his hands to his sides he'll parry highs and mids.
