 I have had a lot of time with Tekken 8 now and I am still hard stuck beneath the red ranks. And now I know it has nothing to do with the video, but I've also got a trip coming up that's going to take me away from the game for a week. So this is my last chance to make a good push towards this rank up. Will I be able to get it? I guess we're going to find out today. This is my last chance for a few weeks to get this red rank. I need to make it happen. But of course they got to put me up against a Jin on his promo match. So it's not going to be easy. I do like the fit though. Kind of reminds me of End of Z Goku. Chain grab! Call me Oob! What did you say about my mom? That's two hits already. I just got to, I got to make it happen. Vanquisher on a promo chance. I got to make him fight for it. If nothing else, I got to make him fight for it. What do I do? I just got to play the game, play the game, play the game. Go for the low. I'll take it. Jaguar hop. Jaguar hop. Oh, armor up. Go for the legs. Nice. Loving that. Armor up. Grab? That might be enough for game. It's not though. Go for a low. We're going to get a perfect on round one. Wasn't really too intense of a perfect, but I'm still feeling pretty good. Go for a side step. No. It's, it's snuck out. I'm not sure what I do about that. It didn't look like I could crouch. Oh, armor. Grab power by me. RKO. Sorry. I'm still working on crouch. No crouch. Okay. So you want to get grabbed. You enjoy, you enjoy the process of getting RKO. And I understand that. And I want to support you. That's one. Don't let me do it twice. All right. All right. So you didn't want to let me do it twice. Don't go low. Oh, bye-bye. Oh, you already know I got to do, you know what? I'm just going to armor up. Okay. Armor up. Heat attack. This is going to let us go into Jaguar stuff. Into an RKO. Oh, I would never do that twice. I would never do it twice. Is what I would say if I'm lying. Me when I lie. I would never do it three time. All right. So he got me there. You got me there. A little bit of heat left. Honestly, at this stage, I'm not sure if I should try to cheese out one more. I'm going to cheese out one more RKO again. It gave me a little bit of heat back. Okay. We're going to lose it now unless I spam low. Kind of goes into a crazy. I wanted to giant swing so bad. No. Check him. How are you not? How are you this calm in the clutch? How is he that calm in the clutch? I got to give it up. He did not flinch at the side of danger. Okay. Hopback. No, I'm sorry. Lariat. Safe. Give me your legs. Wow. Oh God. He got to grab. I'm kind of down right now. Can't lie. I can't lie. He's got me down. No rush. I'm just going to charge it. Why not? Right? Why not? Let it fly. Go low. No, he's got a hop kick. He's got out of the corner, but I got something for him. Go low. Oh no. No. This can't be happening. I'm going to have to wake up. Yo, I got him looking goofy. We'll take round one and 150 right points. Oh, it's going to be. It's going to be a bit of a long day out here. Heading into the rematch though. I'm definitely more worried than and then ever. I feel like he definitely had the stronger ending couple of rounds there and I have more stuff that I need to learn not to be as fraudulent about like these lows that have been cooking me. Oh, just grab him again. Why not? Oh, what a sidestep. That was a great sidestep. Okay. Can't do that. Can't do that. Wake up, cake. Wake up, cake into a grab. He doesn't take it. He doesn't take it. I'm just going to let it fly. Let it fly. Let it fly. Why not? Let it fly. Splash. Oh God. Armor. Oh, okay. I'll take that trade. I'll take that trade every day of the week. Okay. Maybe that. Maybe that trade not so much. Oh, I'm fishing. I'm fishing. I'm fishing. I'm fishing. Big splash damage. It was risky. It was kind of pointless. Don't crouch. Oh, down for the one. Thank you for the free load down for one. You've always been my guy armor up stand up so I get RKO out of nowhere. By God, he's going for it again. Imagine how how much damage I could get if I just didn't miss it every time. Like if I just if I waited long enough just to he actually crouched. Normally I'd be a little depressed but I'm kind of hyped because crouch. Oh, he didn't crouch that time. One, two, one, grab. Armor cake. We'll take it. We'll walk away from this one. GGs, two games up. Couple of right points. We're climbing back up eliminator. But still, it's a long climb. Going into game two. Leo in a suit. Damn, looking crisp. Side step. Oh, into a chain grab. Eight frames. You were not breaking that. In fact, I saw at the winter that I don't think you could break this at all now. So I don't even got to ask. Once you counter grab like that, you're just cooked for life, bros. Sorry about shining wizard. Don't make me side step. Grab you. How does that launch me on a side step, bro? Three dimensional plane. Leo just playing a 2D fighting game out here. I understand. I wish I could. All right. But you wouldn't do that twice. Okay. So it's kind of bad for me. Oh, my last chance. All right. So it's looking. It's looking horrible, bros. Damn. That's what I enjoy about playing Leo. The fast lows, man. That was supposed to be the low. One, two, one grab. Don't attack. Thank you very much for not attacking. I needed that 2D is all I need. But bro, don't crouch. You can't afford to damage. One, two, one grab. Can you I should really just down forward one spam down for one spam in that situation is all I think about. There we go. Make them make them a little confused. Okay. So you got your armor. Wow. That was good. Wow. That was unfortunate. Give me the grab. Thank you. Chain grab. Can you break it? Leo, please welcome back to our chain grab game show and our contestant broken into, but are they ready for the one million dollar bonus round in which you get hit with a counter hit and almost die and then okay. Get off me. Oh, no. No. Oh, wait. You're just getting grabbed. Thank you. God, I am such a scrub in this game, bro. All of my wins are fraudulent. I got a win with the Omega heat. Oh, give me that. Okay. I got it. I got to spam this. No, no, no, no hit spam it spam it. Ah, damn. How about this armor? Well, that was the worst decision I've ever made in my life. What do we grab? Okay. Down for one down for one. Thank you. Greatest move in the game. I'll take another win. I needed that 200 points. That's huge. If we get out of this set with just two wins and that's it. We're at a great position. I should have known. I like this guy for a reason DB Floyd. Could it be Dragon Ball? Oh God. All right. Well, I'm, I'm cooked. I'm cooked. I'm cooked. I got him in the corner though. What do we grab? No, get hands off me. Hands off the merchandise. All right. You can touch the merchandise round two though. Again, we're going to armor here. Okay. You can armor too. Oh, that launcher tracks. Leo give me the grab. Wow. I could have done so much more. I could have done so much more with that block. It's crazy. That's crazy. I need a miracle to win this set now. I need a goddamn miracle to win this set. What are we doing, King? What are we actually doing, King? All right. Let's just get, let's get, let's get scrubby. What? Come on. It's a goddamn miracle. I didn't lose right there and then. Come on, King. Show me what you can do, buddy. Let's go and let us down, King. That was all me. I just missed the inputs. Damn. I could have brought that back. Give me, give me another chance. All right. Heat up. I cancel it and then I crouch and then I crouch and get, I get launched and then I lose a considerable amount of health. Oh no. The wall rising. It's making me want to play Leo again. Making me want to play, making me want to play Leo again. Oh God. Hands off the merchandise. I'm just mashing. I'm straight mashing. I deserve to, what happened to me? What happened? We got exposed as fraudulent in the beginning of the round and now there we go. Am I doing that? I'm doing the order that wrong. Oh, what do we grab? Okay. Okay. That's not too bad. Okay. Okay. Not good. Not good no more. Not good anymore. Please. We barely live. I don't think this kills though. If this kills that is a highway robbery. I should actually serve 60 years. It's not going to except it does. Look at that smile. Look at that smile. That's why it killed. Okay. Big time. Just trigger the trigger the animation. Oh no. Okay. We get to grab. I'm so focused. I'm so tapped in right now. They do have heat. So I'm not trying to do too much. That's exactly why I was not trying to do too much. Get off of me. Get off of me. There we go. Freelo. Freelo. Freelo all we had to do all we had to do. Look, if I have to win with the cheap stuff, I will win with the cheap stuff armor. That sucked. That was just a good read though. No. Oh, RKO. You know what I got to do to cheese the win now. Somebody stopped the fight. Somebody stopped the fight. It's already too. He did that cancels out my armor. Barely take a good trade. It's kind of a good trade. Let's go. I can tell they were nervous. I was too, but I had to pretend I wasn't. Let's go. Okay. Decent. We're halfway through. Can we get closer to red? I feel like it's just a never ending fight. Of course, we run into another King who is just, he's just wearing whatever the outfit store had in stock. Oh, that was huge. Oh, he got, you know the route? You know the route? He knows the route. That was different from my route. I don't know whose route is better. Probably his. Hop kick. Get off me, bro. Get off me, bro. Okay, you got it. You got it. Get off me, bro. All right, you got it. Was I was I throwing out maybe one too many armor moves? Yeah, you could say that. Oh, I'm fishing now. Oh, he knows. I'm trying to jab lock into shining with it. I got counter hit on that. That's huge. Let's go. If I could jab lock him, I would. Okay, we're down two rounds and it's looking worse every day. I'm going to start with heat automatically. I think we just need. We just need something to get us going. That's a low. Oh, no. Not my day in the sun, bro. Not my day in the sun. It's clear to me that my cheap stuff isn't going to work. I got to I got to play this one a little more patient here. I got to play this one a little tiny bit more patient. It's a little bit just a little bit. Nothing nothing too crazy here. Guys, we're just going to try to get a little bit more informed. Let him crouch like that. That's really all we're doing here. We're just trying to play that patient game. Get thrown around. Oh God, we got to crouch that. Okay, mix up crouch. No crouch. Okay, it's your mouth. Fish him out. Fish him out. Okay, he's out of heat. There we go. That's what I'm saying. Let's let's play it. Let's play it a little slow. We gave him a we gave him a fast look. We gave him a fast look. Let's give him a slow look. Let's give him a nice slow look. Oh God. What the? Well, that was bro is hitting me with some new stuff, but now I got to hit him with some new stuff. What's good? I he never crouches these. So we just take that every day of the week. He never crouches these. So we take that every day of the week and then he crouches these. So we take those every day of the week. Nice. Two rounds again. This is what I'm looking for. It's it's embarrassing. How many times I can't get this giant swing to work again. He's just going to let me get these all goddamn day. Oh my God. And I'm not going to stop. That's the thing is I'm never going to stop. I'm never going to stop doing it. All right. Well, one one now one one. Does that kind of make a wow? What a payday. We're just win trading out here. That was huge for the amount of points we lost in the first one. But again, I was a very different look. Now we got to kind of hit him with a blend. We got to kind of hit him with a blend of techniques here. There we go. There we go. Oh, so now he's crouching. Oh, let's go. Oh, that's a huge fishing move. Why am I? I don't have to be fishing after it lands once. That's probably good for the round, bro. I'm probably good on the round. Don't kill me. All right. He got me. Bros in the ripped jeans, man. Where's King off to after this? Give me that chain grab. Can you break it? I don't care if you're another king. I'll snap your neck like a twig. Run the outside one more time over the back. I'm thinking maybe one more grab. What are we thinking here, boys? Oh, he broke out. Oh, God. Oh, no. No, thank you, dude. He's not crouching it though. There we go. He's finally crouched it. He's finally crouching and I'm going to use my last bit of heat just to add some damage to the combo. Shining with, I think he got my, I think he got my lungs. I think he got my lungs. I think he knocked the air out of me. I got it. I'm going to crash this every day. Okay. Okay. I was afraid. No. This is bad. I'm not going to lie to you. Okay. This is bad. This is very, very bad, boys. Very, very bad. It's over. I couldn't get it done. Koniki. Finally into our next match and we're back. Feel it hopeful. I just, I got it. I got to play better. I got to play better. Oh, no, it can't be. Why am I trying to play fair and square when I got heat? That's just not, that's not how you play the game. Oh, God. Oh, God. Oh, God. Don't block low. Don't block low. Never block low. Is it going to be our chance to get something going here? Take the legs. Oh, no, the heat. Damn you, King. Damn you. My buttons just don't be acting right sometimes. Man, I swear. All right. All right. One, two, one, grab. Okay. Come on. Come on. Hop kick. Big damage. All right. That's fine. One, two, one, grab. No, no, no. Why would I go for that? Why would I go for that? Oh, that was unfortunate and I do do a move getting up. I'll take, no, that trade wasn't really good. No, that, no, that wasn't, it wasn't really my kind of trade either. No, no, thanks. Oh, God. Please. I'm getting cooked out here. It's not looking good. Um, was that trade in our favor? Give me the grab. Okay. All right. You crouch, you crouch, you crouch, you crouch. Is this person be crouching? Yeah, you like to crouch, huh? Yeah. Well, how about you crouch now? Yeah, but you crouch now. Yeah. Crouch again. There's no shame in it. There's definitely no shame in it. That's, that's for sure, dude. That's for sure. You should crouch again. Well, you shouldn't do that. Oh, I still got hit. I did a lot of damage though. I got mine before I got God. I think I just try to go into the heat mix as fast as possible here. I think that's actually the play. Oh, God. Oh, we don't even need to mix up portion. Just slam them into the dirt. Stayed up. Oh, so you like to crouch, huh? So you like to crouch. Oh, crouch then. Crouch then. Yeah. Go ahead. Keep crouching. Go ahead. Keep crouch. Ow, ow, ow, ow. Oh, God. Why don't you crouch? Yeah. Go ahead. Okay. I didn't do that, right? No, no, I just need to mix up and I'm failing. I just need the heat mix up. The heat mix up is all I need to win here. There's no way. Oh, I'm sorry. That was so lucky. I'll step on them. Oh, let's go. And I didn't get the last piece of that heat mix up. You got heat. I respect that. I respect that. Ouch. No crouch. I'll take the grab damage then. You gotta, you gotta, you gotta want it. I'm worried about that rage. They couldn't turn around. They couldn't turn around in time. King's gonna steal a win. Oh my God. That was okay. All right. That was a hard set. I'm not gonna lie. A lot of cheap, cheap stuff in my favor there, but that's, that's definitely where I'm at as a player though. I feel like I'm only really winning off cheap stuff and like big damage hits from King, which don't get me wrong. I'll take all day every day of the week. Don't crouch. Oh, hello. Hello. Call me Alex. Okay. Heat attack. Why did I not let that fly? Crouch. Thank you. I jumped it. No way. They know a combo off that. Oh my God. Oh God. What was happening there? All right. We'll take it around one loss. Take it around one loss. Just think about what we did. Oh no. I'm definitely going for a cheesy. You broke it. What the? Listen, man. I don't even know what you're doing, but you're going to get you're, I can't believe you're breaking these. I crouched on the last one because I just, I believe that I was going to get my day in court. I will have my day. Oh, you are not Jaguar stepping out of that one. You are not Jaguar stepping out of that one me. Wow. Free damage. We're not out of this just yet. Shining. No way. Well, we died as they told us to. Haha. Hopkick. I knew a hopkick would work. Don't ask me why I knew. I don't know why I did that specific route because it's not really a route. It was just buttons, but I'm feeling pretty. I'm just spamming out. Oh God. Oh, wow. What was me, dude? I can put together something though. I can put together something. You give me a few seconds. I'll put together something. Nope. It's over. I hated that. I was not a fan. Not a fan of how the last one ended, but we still got to go out here and what? What? Okay, just down for one down for one spam it out. Okay. I'm happy to have gotten around that. I'm not going to lie. What do I do? What do I do to stop her from doing that in the air? I just block. Is there is there a clear punish after that? Okay. Oh, I would never do it twice. I would do it twice. Oh, I just lie all the time. I'm sorry. It's over. I'm sorry. I just it's a real habit of mine. I got to stop. It's a bad habit. Don't say it up. What are you doing? I'll take it. Hey, if you're going to roll around in the crowd. Hey, I'll take my free round. Say it up. Oh, oh, it's true. I wanted it. What is happening? What is happening? That move on King is so cheap. Oh, chain grab. Oh, you're you're a crafty one. I'll give that. I'll give you that. I'll give you a shining with. Oh, you do not get to do that for free. No longer do you get to do that for free? I'm up two rounds. I'm feeling good. Okay. I was going to go into the giant swing, but okay. I couldn't I couldn't hop kick there. I'm not sure where the hop kick spot I did was. Okay. A little cheap damage. Kind of cheap damage. No, he'd attack against the wall, but we I stay alive. I stay alive. A little cheese there as the corner kind of pushes us out, but that's what the game's all about. We escape with 300 points and we're we were still pretty far from I'm not sure we're going to get there today. Oh my goodness to lag. What? Why was I lagging? What happened? Okay. The connection doesn't look all that bad now. Oh, armor up. Come on. Get up. Oh, sorry. Sorry. Don't hit me that hard, man. I'm sorry. Hey, bro. We both have one win. We both got out of our last sets to one. I can't I can't let you do that one to one grab. I feel like that's going to get me pretty far in this set. So I got it. I got to let him see. Oh, okay. If you want to. Oh, it is like you know who? Oh my God is it is laggy. It is like you, but I just got to get I got it. I got to do it. I got to do it. I was born in 19 frames. I don't care where it is or who it is 19 frames or less. Give me that low counter hit. That's cheap. Oh, so you know, don't crouch against it. Very few people get to crouch against that and lift to tell the tail. Get up, get up. Hop kick. You got to stay up. Get up. That low kick is going to be my guiding light. Hop kick round start. Who ordered the hop kick? Hey, who ordered the hop kick? Midi, we got a hop kick. Going down. You know, I got to be the cheap stuff. You know, I got to be cheap. This is literally my favorite map to play as King. You want to know why? Let me show you why it's my favorite map to play as King. Get this goddamn floor out of here. Get this goddamn floor out of here. And you know what's coming next except I dropped the combo, but I'm still going to take some damage. It's over. I probably won't be rematching because well, it's running in three frames right now, but GG's got the grab. Still a great match. I'll see. I'll get it. I'll get us better interconnection. We'll run it again one day. An important set in the overall state of this game. I've got to be hit. Oh, God. No, you can't afford to miss combos that easy, dude. Park Hill. One, two, one, grab. All right. This person loves crouching. This person loves crouching. We can use that against them. Oh, if we're not already dead. I think I'm going to get hit. Look chain grabs. I didn't know I didn't know you had those. I'm going to be honest. I didn't know Nita could do that. All right. Stand up. Oh, it was a combo. I didn't. I'm sorry. I didn't know. No, I didn't know. Stand up. Crouch. Thank you. Stand up. Stand up. Oh, so now you're blocking. Now you now you respect little old King. Okay. Maybe you don't. Okay. Maybe you don't. It's low and then mid upper. I get it. I get it. I think it's low, mid, mid honestly, but. Give me that chain grab. Can you break it? Can you break it? I saw you hit one of your own. So, you know, hey, maybe you can't three. Can I get four, four, about five. Can I do it? Can I do you for five? I'll take it. I think that move is going to cook me all day. No, hey, it's off. Walk him down. Get off me. I'm going immediately into this. I could tell. I could tell you were the kind to click buttons. Oh, that is not good damage though. That is not good damage. Give me your legs. I knew that was going to be cheesy. I will never be able to pull that off in this set again, but I'll take it. No, what? I can't escape this. I can't escape this Nina on slot, dude. In the corner. You got a fear for your life back there. No, I hate it here. I hate it here, bro. I what what if I think on the bright side, maybe I can still get two wins here. I don't know what to do with that. This is this. These are the moments. These are these are the tech in moments. I don't know how to get around that string. I'm not sure what to do, but I need to find a way right now or it is not going to end pretty for me. Oh, no, clipped out of my armor. I need to find a way around that movement. Okay, the game kind of gave us out there. What can I punish that with? I don't know. I don't know what I can punish it with. I'm scared. Okay, I'm scared. Give me your legs. I was pretty nasty. I even said when I hit it last time, I was not getting away with that again. I just didn't think it was going to be in that fashion. That is so crazy. What do I do about that? I don't know what to do. Oh, the worst feeling in the world. Whoa, that was a mid. Damn, I got washed. I wonder who this character is. Last set of the video. Let's try to make it a decent one. Crouch. Oh, yes. Don't crouch. Yes. Okay, I'm feeling good now. I'm feeling good with that beginning. Now that being said, I still have to play the game. Oh my goodness. I can't play. Oh, dude. What the fuck? This game just is so many rules, bro. So many made up experiences. Give me that splash. Now I got to make some stuff up. Okay. All right. Oh, you want it? You want to dance, huh? You want to dance to my fate? Let's dance. Let's dance it. Are we dancing yet? Oh, God. You know, somebody told me to use that move more on one of my twitch streams. Uh, I'm just, I'm not sure if how good Larry it is. It's like a check. I'm, I'm not sure where I should be using it. Stop. No, take that. Ah, I always try to span that heat move, man. I get clipped. No, I'm out of it. Clearly the tech. No, clearly the tech in the tech. It has left my veins. I, I just don't have it in my system. Maybe I never did. I'll take the grab. I can't give up. Uh-oh. Oh, that sucks. Another chance. Also there in their promo match. Are we actually going to see a red, a red red rank right up, but for the opposite side, it definitely seems that way as I'm getting right over the corner. Help me. Oh, I got a fight. No, now that all the armor in the world is not making up for that health day. I'm getting thrown around. No, there's just no, there's no way. There's no way. I can't. I can't. I can't. I, I'm no warrior and I will never fight again. Okay, big kick. You just got to ask yourself, what does it actually mean though? Okay, three rounds in a row. You know what? Even if I'm feeling down, I got to believe that I'm the greatest ever do it. I just, I just don't know how I'm going to make that happen though. I just don't know. I don't even know how to beat this. I don't know how to beat this. No, it's what you thought. I'm taking that and I'm going to win. I don't care how unlikely it is. Oh, good heavens. She has a taser, bro. I mean, what am I going to do? Well, I tried my best. Now I've got to go take a trip. So I'm not going to be able to play any Tekken for a while. And I was already rusty in this video at the end of it. So it's looking rough for me.
