Jin Kazama thread

No one posted or even mentioned this so I guess I will:

At around 4:39:00 there is a quick overview of Jin by Max and Markman. They show pretty much his entire move list and experiment with a couple things.

:sunglasses: Nice! Now we are getting somewhere! This is going to help Jin players big time!

Filthy Rich just comfirmed on cross assault that only Kazuya and Jin have wavedashes (out of the Mishimas) and Jin can’t wavedash continuously.

Hwoarang has a wave dash too!!!

Haha yea, I meant out of the Mishimas.

Bob should have one too and if I remember correctly, King could wave dash in Tekken but not sure about SFxT.

I don’t really see what you’re not getting. I’m using Theory Fighter to supplement what data we already have available, all the statements before I made about teams is used off videos, gameplay a friend of mine has done, and my personal experiences with the game. So yeah, like what’s his face said, stop being so hostile bro, we’re all speculating, some more than others~

I ain’t even mad man, just be cool. It’s all good~

Huh… I guess I’m in the wrong then. I thought you were mocking my last few posts. Never mind then.

No man, I wasn’t mocking you, I was trying to just say that we can supplement what we think with what we know.

Great Video! Demonstrates a few things we will be seeing with Jin when the game comes out.

Notable things:
-Video starts with a demonstration of Jin’s moveset. Starts with Mental Alertness and follow ups. Then goes into Crouch Dash follow ups.
-Jin has a cross up. Probably j.mk or j.hk.
-EX f,b,f+p is a wall bounce.
-Can link normals like a shoto. Possibily doing cr.mp, cr.mp.
-Doesn’t experiment with unique command moves or chains but no big deal. Game is out soon anyways.

really don’t like how they made EWHF just a model swap of Kazuya’s hook. doesn’t look very useful either.

also, is it still Isshin Chiba doing his voice? in all the vids, I can barely hear Jin/doesn’t really sound like Jin. really missing “DAHH!” (I guess he kinda says it during the fb but not as cool…)

pretty sure its not the same VA, like seriously did u not hear his lines when he does his super?

he’s very popular , I wonder why nobody is picking him?

might be because he’s new

dunno

it’s just that the one guy has done Jin in every game, so it would be weird if he didn’t here. sometimes it sounds like classic Jin so far when he’s talking, but then other times it seems like they’ve told him to voice it a little differently. hmmm.

I don’t think he’s in most of the preview builds we’ve seen so far.

He’s probably one of the more unorthodox characters for a new player to learn (when do I use mental alertness/etc.?), so people who picked him mostly just messed with the orbs. Using power stance properly is one of the more technical inputs in the game considering how other inputs have been simplified.

he looks very technical

In tekken Mental alertness allowed jin to do his charge moves without charging.
His powerstance seems to allow him to do counter moves.

At around 4:16:20 Valle starts doing Jin’s trials and gets pretty far into them.

Haunts also goes through Jin’s trials and reaches trial 20 but gives up on that one.

    EX Power Stance

Notable things:
-The normals in trials 17 and 19 are not a chain since you cannot cancel a chain into a non ex special move.
-Leaping Side Kick might be useable as an anti-air.
-In trial 20, EX Power Stance can be use to reduce the recovery frames of cr.hp so you can link it into a Swaying Willow.
-Swaying Willow can link to Kazama Style 6 Hit Combo, possibly other moves.
-Alex Valle mentions Jin’s Cross up is j.hk and j.mk might be a decent for air to air attacks to fight moves like Vega’s Wall Dive.

Now the fun really begins…
