Man I personally started with Jin because I thought to myself he looks cool in tekken 5... and so i started spamming electrics to look and feel cool

[kuntahouen]

I just started playing T7 and I really like Kazuya. I feel like I am learning way faster. The fact that he really only has 10 moves is less intimidating as a noob and lets me focus on actual game plans and reading the opponent.

[CallousCyclone]

Sheer determination was my experience. No understanding of frames etc when I picked him up in TTT2 since childhood T3.
Win rate was around 32% iirc. ALOT of asswhoopins. But. When it clicks and you engage brain, the feeling and reward for your efforts is like the gift that keeps on giving.

Nothing really to add, great analogy and breakdown.
1st thing said defo the most important thing to consider.
"How serious are you about Tekken?" - cuts straight to the meat of the subject 👌

Kazuya was my first character that I actually learned inside & out. So I owned & played every tekken since Tekken 2. However I didn’t know the depths of the game until the 6th installment. From tekken 2 to 5, I was younger & didn’t even know about juggling & combos outside of the 10 hit combo. I knew the concept of punishing but didn’t know the term for it, I just simply knew how to block & attack back lol. But Tekken 6 was a year that I was a bit older & actually sat down & learned the command list. They had the sample combos at the bottom of the list of course & that was back when you couldn’t see the inputs for the sample juggles so you had to know the moves by memory. Tekken 6 also started the juggle off the ground animation which is when combos really started to get insane.
I picked Kazuya because I have memories going back as far as I can remember, as being a little kid & always losing to a guy with black hair, a red eye, lightning kicks, & a spinning lightning uppercut. So jump years later when I sat down & learned Kazuya, I realized that Kazuya was the character I have strong strong memories of. (My memories are also mixed with Jin from tekken 3 since he resembles kazuya a lot & literally still does the Mishima-style karate.)

& MainMan I’ve been watching you since Tekken 6 man. Lol. I wanted to get better at kazuya & YouTube was already going strong at the time so I looked into it & there I found you. Teaching me about EWGF.

Now we’re both fathers... playing tekken still to this day👌🏼💯🔥

He's the easiest mishima to start with to get a good fundamental foundation of how the game works. But will get extremely harder the further you excell. Whereas Devil Jin it gets easier once your execution and fundamental are solid. Heihachi is just all round hard due to no great lows to enforce mixups and rely mainly on frame pressure traps.

[IKI-KIKI]

Nice to hear Shaheen being recommended, he’s definitely a good character to learn the game with. You can focus on the matchup and not on a gigantic movelist. Having a fast slide takes some execution as well if you’re in to that.

[BiggestChungus]

Jin is the best character to learn the game with. He requires some execution so if you're serious about him spend a day or 3 to master the electric, kbdc, and learn some combos and spend another half day watching pros how they play the character. Jin is great for newbies who really are determined to learn because he has all the tools needed

[subrezon]

I recently added Kazuya to my roster, which consisted of Jin and Eddy. Now I feel like Kazuya is basically Jin-supercut, and feels extremely simple to me. With Kazuya you use like 10 moves, while in order to get results with Jin you pretty much have to utilize ~25 highly situational moves.

I enjoy Kazuya a lot, but he is far from Jin in terms of being hard to get into. But at the same time, you can only win with Kazuya by playing the correct way, while Jin has some bullshit you can cheese people with to some degree, but it tops out much sooner than on bullshit-focused characters, and then you have to start playing correctly.

[flurple]

tmm's explanations are actually so well done, i've learned tekken (especially kazuya) just by watching him often

[BabyBoyJr.]

Kazuya is a very technical character. Very hard to master. Its true what TMM said, if you Lab Kazuya, you don't lab him, you lab the opponent/dummy that you will chose to practice. Frame data is extremely important to Kazuya because he needs to maximize whiff and block punishes. Once you get good at Kazuya, he for me is the most satisfying and rewarding character in the game.

[ciscookies]

the best character ever (for me though)

[pungaaa]

Imagine playing a character with a steep learning curve LMAO

Jin just has that smoothness in his gameplay that no other Mishima can match. Despite having a slightly worse electric, he’s the full package

[jojoscar]

I have played law my whole life and when my brother and I battled, he always had a significant lead. I am pretty good with law, but I decided to switch things up a bit. I changed to Kazuya for 2 days and something clicked. He is my new main for now and I love him. I battled my brother today, and won for the first time. I will definitely be watching tmm’s Kazuya tutorial vids more now!! TMM, if you see this, thank you for being a huge inspiration to me, and everyone else here!! Keep doing what you are doing!! :)

[marcusmuntean]

Kazuya is hard to be good with, but damn he sure is fun to play with though.

[Zangetsu-gaTensho]

I think every beginner should give Jin a try
His tools are very encouraging at beginner level
~Safe rage art that no one ducks in beginner
~Rage drive that does more damage than his rage art(basically)
~B 2, 1 does wonders at beginner level
~Bread and butter is easy and does decent damage (can be done from majority of launchers)
~Very compatible with intermediate and higher level of play so you don't have to change character
~Permenant Character
~Up back 3 panic move
~Combo potential so you'll not get bored of doing same combo over and over not to mention stylish
~Electric is an option but not a necessity
~general poking is solid
~Launching Hell Sweep
~ He is the protagonist for god sake



So yeah give him a try

"Everyone thinks its easy but no one spends time with the character." You talking about Eliza?

[tyseanisaac]

I know your not gonna see this but thank you for the truthful insight and being blunt I won't rage or quit anymore and ive found my patients im striving to be like you with kazuya

[The_Humble_Hurricane]

Awesome video my brother and picture perfect breakdown of Kazuya, Tekken overall, Time demands, Pros and Cons, thought and training process etc I love the shout out to Bryan as well for being so difficult to master. That's MY guy and has always been my Secondary character. The passion for something can completely over shadow the hardship in many cases. I never saw Bryan as difficult to learn for years, but as people who asked me for advice that were losing started to approach me, I started to understand views I never thought about. While it felt natural for me to pick him up, actually explaining his game plan in comparison to other characters made me realize how hard he had it. Me loving him and enjoying him so much made me not feel the struggle at all. However, the more you understand, the easier it is to see the struggle haha. Makes me love em even more though because it makes you respect great Bryan players for the work they had to put in. Great video once again my man. Keep up the great work.

I basically RE-LEARNED Tekken from you bro. Great vids
