Thanks for the info.
But yeah, I feel as tho I should be able to get this I can learn Kaz just fine. Sure I’ll have some trouble at first, but it’s only a matter of time.
You pretty much nailed it, especially the last part “you’ll be missing out on a lot of tactics you can use.”
Thing is even if your execution is tops, ie you can ewgf at will everytime, that doesn’t mean you will win. In tekken tag, it might have worked, but not in t5 or t6.
Pozer: Originally I wrote a long post about why new tekken players shouldn’t play kaz, with some examples from my local arcade. But to make it short, I think a person should learn “tekken” and have a lot of experience before they learn kazuya. Starting with mishimas, especially kazuya (even though he’s number 1) is actually going to hinder you learning how to play tekken in my opinion.
We all learn from losing, but honestly most of the losses of a mishima player can be attributed to execution, if you lose because of your execution, you can’t learn anything from that because execution is part of the physical game not the mental game. And suppose your execution is good (not you but any new kaz player), but you’re still losing, it’s because people already know (established tekken players) what to expect from kazuya. They don’t really have to learn how to beat him and you’re left wondering why you can’t win…
If you want to get into tekken while playing a top tier character, I would suggest Dragonuv. He’s like his tekken 5 character, people already know his stuff, but his stuff got really beefed up.
ewgf’s are your best friend
if he’s using bob df+2 and winning, then he’s playing bob the right way
I kind of see your point, but still…
I think I’ll give Kaz a shot and see what I can do about it. At this moment I know nothing about him, but once more info on when the new Arcade in Austin will open I will start looking up combos/mixs up and such.
If using Kaz is resulting me in really bad play the first week of the game, then I’ll possibly go back to Steve or Dragonuv. Until then, don’t hurt to try the guy.
What does ewgf mean?
I have no idea =(
Electric wind god fist. Mishima player myself actually, all I ever played from the start when I was new so it wasn’t too bad.
main whiff punisher, best launcher, really fast, high priority, and safe on block (+5 i think)
IF you do it right.
go get tekken 5 for ps2 for like $10 and get used to the motion
go on TZ for exact info i dont wanna go too into detail
<— someone who doesnt know crap about tekken, but i do know that
just use bob, the last thing the world needs is another mishima scrub
But, Crow uses Bob =(
then leo, you’ll find it alot easier, probably with better results at the start, she’s pretty good
How are Hwoarang and Steve in this game?
Hwoarang got better than his DR counterpart. He’s probably top 10 I think but I’m not sure.
Steve is not as high as he was before I think, but that doesn’t mean he got worse. I’ve never been familiar with steve so I can’t say much but he should still be a solid character just because he’s steve.
A lot of Steve players were crying when 6 first came out. lol He definitely is a CH baiter now since he can’t jab his way to victory anymore. He also doesn’t have his old df+2 CH launcher so he actually has to take some risk to get people in the air.
Here’s the plan: I’m importing. :tup:
its around $1 here at one of the places, and 1.50 at another arcade. t6 makes everyone think his/her character is top tier
edit- pozer, I wouldnt waste time with kazuya since youre still pretty new to tekken (plus Ive personally played you, etc etc etc). Bob is great, but since you mentioned dragonuv… i’ll say it now. Dragonuv is VERY GOOD! Dragonuv seems to have a lot more tricks up his sleeve than bob.
If I think I know who you are, then I suppose I’ll start learning Dragonuv.
Tho, when playing you it was possibly my 2nd time playing (and so on from weeklies). Thing was, I didn’t know anything about combos, and the only mind game I knew where getting throws in. I was good with my spacing, seeing as how I was almost always able to get my throws in from random whiffs, too bad they were all broke :sad:
So with that said, I suppose Dragonuv.
Then if anything, Kazuya ;o
EDIT: If your that dude from Houston, then give me a month once T6 is out in Austin.
YOUR DONE!! ;o
i thought it was just Dragnov… or is that a typo in the game >_<
Kaz is S class 
and super easy to play in 6
It was Dragunov (as in the Russian Sniper Rifle) in DR. Has his 6 name changed because he’s still listed as Dragunov on the official T6 website: http://www.tekken-official.jp/tk6ac/characters/dragunov.html
aw im hurt you dont remember me. I met you through jeff (crimsondisaster) at… some tourny somewhere. But yeah, indian tekken player. not too many of those. Either ways, if youre just starting out with tekken (which you are) you will get really frustrated if you use kaz as your main. By all means, please keep playing him. There is no other way to get better… but I dont think it should be too tough for you to work with 2 characters at the same time.
I just picked bob today and learned easy random stuff within a few seconds. Anyone know how to play bob and want to give an easy guide? I don’t like to look at zaibatsu.
All I found out was df+2 is mad good,
I follow up with neutral, 2, 2, 2 uf+1+2~1 B! f+3
db+4,3+4,3 hits somehow on wall.
2,1 is good poke. f+3+4 and b+3+4 are his crazy rolls.
b+1+2 works for something.
