His model looks weird. Too wide.
I feel like there's a thematic element to the design of Heihachi.
Reina is younger, smaller and more athletic. So she's faster, evasive and overwhelming inheriting Tekken 7 Hei's bulldog playstyle with the focus on jabs, pokes and then stance mixups.
Heihachi is older and wiser (also got a fist to the chest). He's gotten slower but also powered up and is stronger. You have to be patient with punishment and his just frame charge moves. He trades his original rushdown for very strong combo damage and warrior instinct.
To me it doesn't feel like its Heihachi because of animations, he looks too different from all of his past games.
Hi Joka
Bro, Heihachi seems mad hard to play. Glad to see they didn't dumb him down like Dragunov.
Thanks, it's cool if you make more videos like that. About Feng like example 😊
So like mainmanswe said, more defense less offense. I do see it in your gameplay too. Not much df1,1 and f4 compared to Tekken 7
6:55 I think I just discovered something ( I’m not sure if you know it but it’s not mentioned here ) during the wind god stance you can actually hold ( forward + down ) then press two and it gives you a free EWGF 😂 I just did it in training mode
Awesome breakdown btw
I wish either 1,1 or df1 were -1 or -3 :/
Hi, Do u play on ds4 controller? if yes do i need an adapter to connect it with my ps5?? thanks
the evasion heat move could be use for a get out jail free card when you are running out of heat from the start n not plus in the neutral but yea it looks useless other than that
I honestly think he would be a much better character if he was more solid outside of Warrior's Instinct and as compensation, WI is nerfed. It feels like they made him weaker in normal state for the sake of him having a potential 75-25 chance of winning your Instinct round which makes the character feel so incomplete in design. I would rather the gimmick not exist entirely and instead get a complete, solid package personally but it is what it is. At times I wonder how much I enjoy this Heihachi even because he is so dramatically different than T7 Heihachi. The execution and punishment or combo freedom (carry + damage) feels great but the lack of neutral freedom (easily steppable and committal pokes) feels awful.
Bro heihachi vs lili is absurd you can't do shit against her all of heihachi moves whiffs to a small side step by her
So having a guard break move is becoming a trend in this boring ass game! Imagine the difference between taunt jet upper and this!
Heihachi has been so much fun, I think he is quite balanced with his warrior instinct bringing his more agressive style for one round, anyway, they should nerf devil Jin in the next patch
I'm just happy they gave him the alt input for the electric, makes it easier for a scrub like me :v
Heihachi T7 is different to T8. Heihachi had 2 stances and warrior instinct was too amazing. I think you'll better play with Heihachi in the next tournament.
11:13 Actually even Devil Jin can do an i13 EWGF now. This changed very recently with the latest patch!
Best character, but still hard to play. Warrior instinct is broken.
I'm honestly surprised they didn't give him another beefy low or a low poke, considering how they keep changing every character's archetype and making them all-rounders. But I guess they just gave him a stance game
B4 should have never been a safe, hoaming, ch launch, wall splatting mid. That was egregious
The fact that shadow step uses the entire heat bar is the ultimate buff to its BM value
The old man is so fun to play with. I'm nowhere as good as you but I make him work ❤
I think his sweep from crouch having a clean hit is a super nerf also
I hate what they did to b4. It's very slow and linear. But I guess it makes sense. High risk/high reward.
Very well put review that acts as a guide as well. Straight to the point and no bullshit.
Bro I swear I see your face on a poster for a supermarket or something or am I bugging? Lemme know where I can send you this photo
great video Joka!
I was waiting for this video. Thank you
1,000 matches in a week 😭😭😭
2 etudes a day? Your thoughts?
The biggest crime they did with heihachi is not making his new ff1+2 a great move. It would’ve had so much potential if it had better hitbox and tracking.
