 Tekken 8 is the first and only Tekken game I have ever taken seriously, and because of that, I am bad. Now in my last video to alleviate that problem, I tried learning another character, Leo. Since then, I've played the character more, gotten more refined, but I am still bad and need to play more if I'm ever going to get to Blue Rank. So in today's video, we are going to do exactly that. Only now, we're going to utilize even more of Leo's tools to hopefully get some wins. Okay, come on, we're so close to Red Rank and it's a king. I might get bodied here just off of the chances of getting bodied. 14 damage, alright, I'll take that. Oh no, legs, legs, mid? No, no, no mid. Oh, I wanted that so bad. Down two. What am I doing down two from that range for? Down two. That's plus. You gotta block all the way low every time. Okay, get off the ground. Stand up mid. Let's go. Oh, you gotta block. Oh, no, no grabs. Block that. Do I, I'm heat activation. Why not? Do it quick. Make it fast. We don't want to get hit by King. Alright. Oh no, can I at least get a little bit of chip? I'm block, I'm blocking. I'm too afraid of the heat activation raw. Oh no, what did I just tell myself right? No, now it's my turn to heat activation. Oh, don't ever try to get your hands off me. Alright, so you did pop up at the mid. Oh, I may be dead. Alright, we broke it, I think, or it just ended. Come on. Let's go. Why do I always go for the slowest stuff? Alright, good. I was just fishing for that. I was fishing for that at that point. King, get out of here. Let's go. Now jump up. What is it, my first day at King School, bro? No, get your hands off of me. No, didn't I just tell you to get your hands off of me? I told you, no grabs, I'm ducking all of them. In fact, I just love ducking on Leo, so I'm going to be out there. That's fine. Oh God, that's not fine. It's often much nicer. I feel like he's just going to heat activation. Get your hands off me. Oh, the heat activation. Why did I not think he'd do it at the last second? I was afraid of it the whole time. I should have expected that. 2-2, I need to put this away, though. No. No, no. Come on. Come on. Talk to me. In the clutch. What am I doing? What am I doing? No. Alright, good. If he just wants to whiff grabs, I'll let him whiff grabs all day. Oh, he did it again. He did it again. Oh, if you want to whiff grabs, I will be here all day to duck. I will be here all day. My God. Look at that. It's one way. Oh, wait a minute. What is that one point? Just give me the goddamn rank at that point. He always starts with armor. I think I'm going to wait and then armor to get through his armor. That was wrong. I go low, all the way low, all the way low. Come here. Come here. Get up. Now go mid. Now go mid. Yeah. Alright, I'll take it. I'll take it because why not? Because why not? The why not is I'm up against the wall. I'm going to get that splat. Oh, this is the red ranks. See, I knew I just needed a break last time, but I was down on my luck to it. Okay. Oh, big counter hit too. We just taking our time here. We just taking our time because I'll take my time all day. Please don't have blocked that. Heat attack. Now use your heat activation. Yep. Duck it. No, okay. He wanted to go for the mid. I can respect that. Okay. Alright, I need a miracle. I need a miracle. Hit a button right now. The comeback is over. And did he have to, did he have to choke me out though? Did he have to choke me out? That just didn't seem very nice. Whoa. Nice. I'll take that. I think I'm gonna walk him out. Oh, hands off the merchant. Nice buddy. And I keep crouching. Every time he's going to do that muscle. Alright, that kind of hurt. That's that's a big hurt. Let's go. No more attacks off the ground. Every time my opponent's on the ground, I make that mistake. I get a little too close. This is it. This is my game. He's got armor. Me too. Yeah. What is it? My first day in boating school. Come on. Why am I terrible at the game? Did I get a kick? Thank you. Launcher. Come here. Oh, I thought I could slam on the ground with that. Okay. Let's get the space then. That's a good trade. I'll take that. Come here. Oh, no. I did hit a button. It's true, bro. It's true. Is that what you wanted to hear? Is that what you wanted to hear? Come on. I don't care. I don't care. Go ahead. Smile. I just got to put it away. This is my promo chance. There's everything. No more, Mr. Nice guy, bro. Grapple gun. Nathan Drake. Bitch. Oh, I'm about to hit him with a lost legacy. Welcome to red ranks with a raw rage art. No skill needed. I'll take it, bro. Oh, finally, finally after years, years of pain. Now let's get to Shinryu. All right. It's Alyssa, bro. I'm cooked. Alyssa basically means that I have a higher chance of demoting than getting to Shinryu, but I'm still going to. I like the, I like the outfit actually. I think the custom outfit actually goes hard here. Let me crouch. Oh, so you're, you Johnny, why, how'd you trick off my forehead? I don't know. Go for the, oh, I wanted the low. Oh, I keep crouching. Okay, I get, ah, okay. So you like following up at the low after that or the mid. Yes. Is what I would say if I could have followed it up there. That was still a good crotch though. That was still a good crotch. Let me pop off. Let me pop off. I can't get anything off that. All right. You go, you go low. I'm going to go lower. Double kick launch. Okay. Couple of jabs. Okay. The low, God, that low is crazy. What the fucking rocket punch? I can't do my worst. My worst trait in this game is sidestep and then keep walking. I can't, I can't for the life of me ever do that ever. It's, it's, it's actually the hardest input. Oh, come here. Oh, you're just, you're just getting stopped out. You're just getting stopped out. You didn't have it. You just didn't have it. All right. Fastest mid I've ever, I ever did see up against the wall. Roll out. Hey, damn, you think you hit me with enough lag? No, no more, no more of that. I'm just going to duck it now. Give me that. You can't do me like this. Come on. You even, you know, you can't do this dude. You're going to end my win streak like this. He's going to crouch. I've got to get off the ground. Are you almost died though? You almost died though. I know you're dirty little secret. I know you're dirty little secret. You were afraid even with the lag. I'm still going to get a win. I'm going to get a win and then get out of here. I was born in 19 frames. So to me, this is literally like a sunny day, bro. Oh, let's go. Kick him. No, not that one. Hello. What is happening? It's so slow. Oh God, thank God I stood up. You want to shoot your rocket? Cool. Oh, that was a sick dodge. I didn't even need to do that, but that looked cool. All right. Well, I think I died. Well, that was fun. Big red rank mirror match for all the points in the world. Let's go. Big first launcher. I'm going to keep it standard. Get him close to that wall. Side step range. Got him. Side step range. Don't got him. Oh, I try to get it back for. Oh, still still going to follow it up though. I'm going to be. Wow. What a response. Asked mid man. Fast mid. Whoa. That was not the move I thought it was. All right, I'll take it. Let's get a boy from this corner. Got there first again. Come on, bro. I know you're a drag it off player. I can see it in your eyes. And the heat activation was crazy. Oh God. Oh God, not my. No. No good day in the sun. I believe I'm cooked. All right. Keep him away. The low got me. All right. Three. All right. We can win two. Oh, we can win two. We can win two. I need the points. I need the points. That's what I need to remember. The first set is data. I agree. I need to use more down to here. More side step. Okay. That was too much range. All right. Full low. He never goes full low there. Take a bit of a key. All right. Running to didn't get him. I do much crouching. Let's go. Come on. I'm playing the dragon off game. I'm playing your game, bro. Come on. Oh, I thought I got a low there. Oh God. How much image? All right. We got him. We got him. A little heat activation. That was a dangerous situation. Dangerous situation. Oh God. He laid me out. How do I break that? I don't know how to break that. I don't know how to break that. And I just can't get out. And I don't know when to push buttons. I don't know when to push buttons. No. No, a counter hit down to it. I just wasn't there. All right. Again, we just got risky because I don't know when to push buttons. What do I do at what? Oh, could have been great. Get off the ground Leo. Oh, heat activation. Low. All right, we still fine. Wow. What a response. What a response. Hello. Nice. Come on. Okie. I'm starting to think maybe I just got to throw in some crouching jabs here. Crouching jabs to break up his offense. I think that might be the move. Oh, I wanted to grab there so bad. Armor. We have. I think I'm going to need a rage art here. All right, good. We'll take a rage art damage. We'll take some rage art damage. That's going to heal us up a little bit surely. We can win this. Crouching jabs to break up the offense. It's a shame we found the tool so late into the set, but we still have something. Please tell me I'm too far for that. Oh, come on. Rematch added a third rematch. No, dude. Unfortunate just when I found a way to break up the offense. All right. I'm getting dangerously close to a demotion now. So I need to win. I need to find a win somewhere. All right. Can I just let me get the full low? Why not? A little bit of oaky damage. Why not? Oh, yes, dude. I love that counter hit. I need it. I need that counter hit every day. I'm going to go full low again. I'm going to go full low and you got to get off the ground. You got to get off the ground. Big perfect. What the hell? Why do you put his hands behind his back? Oh my God. I was not blocking that either. I think that's the scariest part is knowing that I'm so terrible at defense that was going to hit me. All right. Well, now I'm reacting. Bro, you shouldn't have used it to scare me earlier because now I'm afraid now I'm watching. All right. Heat activation might just have to cheese out a little damage here. Rage art. Are you not the type to rage art? Whoa. Hands off the merchandise, buddy. I thought he would go for a low. I'm not going to lie. A big kick mid. That was not what I was expecting. Wow. Instant. Where's A? I saw my heat startup. Where's my armor? All right. Let's let's relax. Let's relax. That's way too risky. All right. We're plus here. We're plus here. So I oh my God. I got to stop getting hit by that. Wow. The heat activation was nuts. Oh, that's traded, which I actually agree with. Unfortunately, I did not mean to block low. Drop it. Drop it. Drop it. I'm pissed. I'm pissed. All right. Now I got to win to him. I'm pissed. Oh, why don't I do that? I'm just not trying to get the hit by raw heat activation again. Yes. Oh God. Why am I? It's always it's always when I need the wins that I just I can't. I follow. Yep. A little bit of a little bit on top. I follow again. Why not? All right. Now I'm afraid of the stupid. I'm so I'm so afraid bro. I'm so afraid. No, I won't be there to see you launch. All right. All right. Raw heat activation, please. Just do raw heat activation. Just get it out the way for me, man. Oh, I tried to get raw heat activation. I know it's coming. There it is. All right. Follow again. Okay. This time you saw coming. Hello. Thank you. Thank you. I'm going to run up and get the damage. You know, I got to run up and get the damage. Oh, huge space thing. God, Leo, you are too nice. The spacing is too nice. And there's that heat activation we always talk about. No way. No way. I can't. Why do I not just punish that? I think he missed. All right. I got a little bit of help back. Oh, probably should have blocked that one. If I just block and launch, I think we're good. Yeah, I can literally launch punish that. This is crazy. This is crazy that I've just been getting hit by that. No. Wow. I got hit with the slow, slow. All right. Now I'm thinking too much though. I can just also rush down. Let's go. Easy. Easy. You can't get hit by that. You can't get hit by that. Add a little damage on top. Let's go. Oh, God, from way too downtown. Get off me. I hit mine at the last time. Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, you was so confident in that time or two. You was so confident in that time or two. I got to be there to sneak a little low in there. Now get my rematch. Coffee Queen blocked that. Yeah, you try to get a cheap shot in. What the hell was that? All right. All right. Don't block low. All big down to again. You can't get hit by that. All the rollout always gets me. Okay. All right. Hold on. I'm still alive. I'm still alive. I'm going to go full low here. Low parry. Oh, was that the stance? That was the stance. Every time I get low parried by this character, now I just think like maybe it wasn't. I'll take that. Come here. Now you're not ready. Huh? Now you're not ready. Huh? Stand up. Now you're not ready. That was an actual low parry. Oh, it was. Damn. Fraudulent by me. Double kick. Come here. Up against the wall. Okay. I understand. Oh, shit. Damn fucking rocket uppercut. All right. Well, now I'm around behind and feeling pretty bad about it. Damn. The sidestep jump punch is crazy. No, no, too many times. Oh, that's it. Damn. Well, that was a quick loss. I'm going. I'm winning this time. All right. Now it's my turn. Hit buttons, bro. Oh God. No, it's not. No, it's not. No, it's not. I don't know what to hit buttons against this character. Please. Let's go. Let's go. Get up. No. No. You didn't. You blocked high. Oh, you blocked low that time. You're actually just blocking. You're actually just blocking. No way. Why am I in the corner, bro? What? Get me out of here. Damn crumple. Damn. I just got to block that. Oh, no, brother. Oh, no. Hey, but if you want to go low, now I'm going to start just sending. I'm sending the whole force against you now. I crouched. Okay. I don't know how much space I have here. Okay. Just enough. No. No space. Okay. Okay. Hold on a little bit of like, but a like. Let's go. Big time doc. Big time doc. Bop, bop. Dude. No. All right. All right. Terrible place. Terrible place. No way. Was that the stance? I didn't do that move all set. That sucked. It also was a little laggy. All right. Match up against the shin Ryu. I really do need this win for more than just me. I did. Oh my God. He covered so much space. That was armored. That was crazy. Big range. All right. Come on. I didn't respect me. I thought I had the down to you there. Or I think I might have hit the launcher. That's a grab. All right. Didn't know that. Didn't know that that was a grab. All right. Come on. Oh my God. The trip was crazy. Hold on. I need to focus up. He's got combos. He's got combos. Just block high. All right. I'm not falling for that. I break up the offense a little bit. What? That was the headbutt, wasn't it? All right. Well, that just I just ran up and missed a grab armor. Okay. No. God, I just go for all the wrong options all the time. Did you just pick me up by my leg? What the fuck? All right. No more. No more lows. No more lows. We block that one. Let's let's try to make something happen here. I need. Oh, no, that was wrong. It kind of worked out still. No, down to what was that? Well, orbital heel. Nice, but I'm still pissed. It's about to be a demotion match. At this point, though, I kind of need to demo it and rank up again. It's the only it's the only way to get my the max points back, but I'm still not going to demo. It's still just a pride thing. I'm not going to let that happen. No, down to. Oh, I missed the down to all the missing of the down to is crazy. No. What the hell is that? What the hell was that? Armor? I didn't have enough help. Oh, even the armor is not the move. Even the armor is not the move. This is bad. Oh, this sucks. Orbital heel. I crouched orbital heel again because I crouched. I'm looking for the low is hopkick the move hopkick was technically a move. All right, coming around. I'll take it free damage. I'm going to get a win here. All right, big time. Big time. I'll take it. All right, rough. Oh, you went for the low again. Dude, how many lows you got, brother? Damn. All right, demoed it. But hey, now I can. Yeah, whoa, whoa, whoa, don't take that many points. Now don't take that many. Damn. Ever heard of just a little bit off the top? Oh, this. Oh, damn. Just this alone is a promo match. All right, well, now, now I got something to really play for. Oh, armor is Lisa. I think isn't his like a low heat activation too. I'm just terrified. He activation just to be plus. Full low. Thank you. Little bit off the top. No. God damn. Down around. I'm down around, but I need this promo. I need this promo. Oh, no. Oh, no. All right, big damage. All right, big damage. Well, this corner is not where I want to be. What do I do? Okay, you got to just stop. Damn. Knowledge check, bro. Daddy, I was holding back. Damn. Holy hell. Imagine getting bullied in the corner that crazy. All right, I'll take it, please. No. No. No, I lost it. Hey, still give me a promo chance? I mean, that was already a pretty egregious promo chance, but I'll take another one. The fuck is that? I don't think I've ever seen a Lee win. I've never seen that win animation. I'm blocking out, blocking out. All right, go low, go low, go low. Take it. Let's go. No. No, please. Lee, stop. All right, I think I'm good. Oh, three strings. I'm plus there. I'll take it. I'm going to go full low again. All right, I was waiting. I was waiting for the punish to be fair. Damn. Just getting stunt and all like that is crazy. No, the sidestep. That was too much damage through the armor on there, brother. I don't even know what that was. That sucks. That sucks. I think we're about where we started tough. Dude, it was. I can't block that. Oh, what? Is that a two grab? Is that a one plus two? I don't know. I don't know the grab. I don't know the grab. Help me. I'm not blocking out. Oh, no. I wish that I wish that check mid. I mean, maybe that'd be broken. Oh, no. I would still have been half health. So I'm feeling okay ish one plus two every time. Every time I just got to do one plus two. Ah, a big time, big time, big damage. And I soiled it, but that's fine. All right, maybe I should start implementing some armor here just to mix up the attack. Okay, but then you can't buy a low. So truly a lot of layers in this game. All right, that should be game unless I mess it up, but I'm still just going to step on his toes. All right, it's to one. I need to win two more rounds in a row. Holy little armor just to mix it up. I play him out. Dude, I always forget that that is it is not that move. All right, he's done. Oh, my God. Oh, thank you. Okay, come on. Come on. You did finally start clutching up, man. Start clutching up. Go mid, I mean low as many times as you want. I will never block. I just want you to understand that. So we're, oh, that was a shame. Oh, I never seen that one. That was new. I'll give it up. That was a new beat. What? Live it. Thank you. At least we lived it. At least we lived it. Get a little damage on here. It's two, two. So I don't care. We can watch the cutscene. I need that. Oh, the slide is crazy. All right, one more, one more, one more. I mean, well, I mean, hopefully two more, but hopefully two more. Got to keep them waiting. All right, we've seen it. We've seen him do that one before. The tricks are old. The tricks are old. I mean, now I'm not blocked. He tried to hit me with the low grab. I see the layer. He tried to add layer two to it. I actually appreciate that. I appreciate that. I can see his layers. Oh, there's the second layer. There's the second layer. It's a one plus two. Damn. All right, should be game. Let's go. That's a round. Yes, that was huge. We're just doing this to be plus, honestly. Now, can I get another one? Can I get another one to put me on the cusp of that rank up? Well-executed set. We need to see that same level of a prowess here. I don't know why I wanted to hop kick. It was just what was on my mind. It was what was on my heart. Big standard grab. Big, big command grab. OK, I'll take that trade. I tried to go for a hop kick again, man. Oh, living it. Living it. I can't believe we live that. I'll take it. No, stop. Bro, please. I'm not blocking that. I'm not blocking that. Oh, one plus two. I haven't broken one of those all set. I haven't broken one of those all set. One plus two. I always go to one. I always go to one. All right, that's a round. Below again. No, that's how me blocks it. That's fine. You know, I want him to experience blocking that one just so we can get this part. And now we're on the cusp again. Doesn't need to play king when he is one. Damn, promo match against the red rank. I just got to prove it. Damn, and he's using the good Jin outfit, too. Damn. Oh, hello, Jin. I didn't mean to miss. Oh, what are you doing going low? All right, that's fine. Wow, I thought I had the perfect spacing. All right, get off me. Get up off me. I was going to do that, too. I'm just getting outspaced. Yeah, outspaced, out, outspaced, outplayed. Let's do it better. Come on, hold on. Hold on. Let me try something different. Oh, I don't know why a down two came to mind. Come on. It's only he only up one round, only up one round. Play safe. All right, hold back, hold back, hold on. There we go. Check him a little bit. Check him a little bit. Just a little bit. OK, he went low. Oh, I wanted that, too. I don't know the break on that. OK, now we're down two rounds. So this is panic time, officially. Oh, hello. Try to get a low in. All right, let's just do this. A low? Thank you. Oh, no. Oh, space that. I believe, I believe. I need some believers. Let's go. Oh, no. I'm going for it. Oh, it was going to be sick. Heat drive engage. Let's go. Oh, no. I should have still won that. Damn, I hit rage art because I wanted to be funny. I wanted to get rid of. I wanted to get at the rage, right with the rage art again. Oh, it wasn't funny, though. It wasn't very funny, was it? I should have just went for the stupid quarter circle forward low. Still a promo match. All right, well, we've got a formula here. We've got a winning formula. We know after two jabs, he likes to duck usually, unless he ducks already. How do we, what? What, in the rollback? That was an alternate universe, bro. We saw the universe I was looking for. Why did they make me watch the universe I wanted, bro? Okay, okay, okay, okay. But I need, I'm just, I need to check that. I need to check that. Oh, no. That time, the timer got me. Now I need to do another three in a row. Okay, big damage on the grab. More big damage from a grab. Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no. Dude, check. Fuck. We could have just promo that first round if I didn't rage art. Damn, tough. All right. Onto the next one. All right, let's make it a, let's make it a quick rank up. I need a red rank here. Jack eight. Well, this is probably going to suck. Oh, no. Oh, God. Big grab. I'm going to try to make a comeback. All right. Big comeback just by flipping them around a little bit. I'll take that trade, I guess. Hello. Wow, that was bad. Double leg chop. Double leg chop. I'm going to be there. Pretty decent on the points. Pretty decent on the points. I was trying to get a little cheesy there. I was definitely trying to get a little cheesy. I was definitely trying to get a little cheesy there, but we'll lock it up. I was, I held forward for some unknown reason. Holding forward was not the move. All right. Boom. Big armor. Nice. Let's try that again. Heat attack. Just, ah, just to use it too fast of a move. I was trying to cheese. I was trying to get in there. Okay. Let's go. That was huge. No. No, I just wanted to lock it up. Okay. Huge. I was trying to lock up that forward forward too, man. I wanted to, I wanted it so bad. Huge. Possibly the ending. Okay. That's one more win down and that's going to put us probably right on the line. Yeah, we're right on the line. So any one win we'll do to get this rank up back. Will we get it though? That's another question. That's another question chat. Bro's got the lightning fist name and also Lars, but he's, he's on gin right now. So I think we might have an advantage. I think this guy is a Lars player. Oh, that's huge. If I was good at the game. Oh, no. No fuck. Damn. That did a lot of damage. Cause I just got crouched after one jab. Okay. Maybe not. I tried it again anyway just to make sure. Okay. That is a two, a one plus two break. Maybe I don't know. It's a rough situation to be in. I do not like being down two rounds. I'm not liking the situation. The situation is not looking too good. Let's go. Little cheesy, a little cheesy, but I'll take it. I still believe in the plus two wins here. I still believe. Let's go. Don't crouch. Oh, no. Oh, no. That is not good. Oh, get out of there. Armor. Thank you. Let's go. Hit a button. All right. I'll take that one plus two. God, if Tekken was just like there's one throw and you break it by using this button. Damn. I would just be having some brothers. Let me just break that. Just let it be a reaction, please for the newcomers. Always. What's the break? I need the break. I need the break. I don't know the break. Okay. I don't know the break. It's true. It's true what they say. I don't know the break to that. Literally, if you just do that grab, you will win, but please do not. It's just a one break. Oh, what the fuck? How is it not? How is that not a punish? Is that just too slow in the history of trades? What was that? That was the worst trade I've ever seen. He was very brave to do that again. He crouched again. All right. Another game run down two rounds on a promo chance. Call her to be shocked, dude. Oh, shoot. Oh, no, grab. I knew. I knew. I knew it. I knew it. I knew. So I didn't know he was going to grab, but I knew if I lost to grab, I was going to be pissed. So I just done because I don't know how to break it. No. Oh, no. That's that felt very decided. Oh, no. No, dude, there's just there's no shot. Oh, man. Oh, man. Where is this promo? It's got to be in here somewhere. Not not this one. Emotion match. Oh, hey, that was my move. Oh, low parry. Okay, my bad, my bad, my bad. My bad. I would never do that. I would never do that. Okay. Just cheese it out. Cheese it out. That's all we need. This full low every time. No low block. All right. I understand getting hit by lows. Yeah, that's me. That was that was the story of my life right there on the cusp again on the cusp again. It's double promo match. Double promo match. I got a lot on the line. Oh, that shoe barely clipped me. You got size 13's on. I know that feeling. I know that feeling. I really know that feeling. I got to be honest. I'm just going to go heat drive because I'm in a bad way. I'm going to be plus here, which you know what that means. Oh, you did it. You did it. I am proud of you, but also fuck you, dude. Got him. To be honest, I wasn't even sure I was going to go for a low. Got to take those. I want another grab. Got to take those. You got to break it. Save me, maharaga. Save me, timer. Get me to where I want to be. What the fuck? Oh, you're stupid fucking head. Oh, no, you got to crouch. You got to crouch. Damn, that hurts. Oh, you broke it. I'm proud of you. Bye-bye. We did it. The rise and fall and rise again. Now let's do it all over again.
