I Will Never Lose in TEKKEN 8 Again 

You gon be the best like no one ever was when we're through.

7:05 “What’s he doing?” “He’s beginning to play TEKKEN”

I’m so glad he taught the fundamentals first. There’s so many green ranks on tiktok telling other green ranks to learn max damage combos first. How are you going to land those combos without knowing how to open up your opponent first?

i was really expecting that “im never gonna lose” to cut strait to a loss 😭

"I can see!" I felt this on a spiritual level when I started to understand Tekken, too. Happy to see the growth and excitement.

Watching Lotus completely dismantle that first opps confidence in a single round is probably the cleanest domain expansion I've ever seen!

Tekken series going HARD

Afro was like Boruto when he was using the Ninja Tool but now he knows the power that comes from putting the work in now he will thrive

A quick tip: The reason you were getting grabbed by that last Dragunov was because he wasn't using a 1+3 or 2+4 grab. He was using a special 1+2 grab which can only be broken by pressing both 1 and 2 at the same time! Also if your opponent keeps spamming the same grab you can tell which kind is coming depending on which arm they lead with: A 1+3 grab leads with the left arm (same arm as 1) and 2+4 grab leads with the right arm (same arm as 2) and a 1+2 grab leads with both! I think they simplified the 1+3 and 2+4 to be either punch breaks it in this game but the 1+2 grabs still needs both to break them.

We’re finally seeing the making a true Tekken warrior

7:08 "What is he doing"???👀👀👀 "....he's beginning to believe"😎😎😎

The Afro gojo “nah I’d win” is new PFP material and I’m not debating it

“I’m PLAYING TEKKEN” I love the energy on this vid 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

Avoid falling into the “throwing my moveset” mentality, glad to see the improvement

7:01 that string was dirty af

As a visual learner, the frame gaps between the enemy post attack is where to catch em! This helped A LOT

Lotus is killing it in this series. I love your dynamic. He's really knowledgeable and I'm actually learning.

Lotus has been a HUGE BOON to the growth of Afro. This Is Some Good Ass Tekken. Journey about to be a Movie.

Loving the confidence. Worst thing you said in the video though was "I won't lose and if you see me lose it wasn't me." Losses will make you unbelievably stronger if you let them. As the old adage goes, you have to get washed to get clean.

Maan when afro learns a combo and stops being so predicatble hes gonna go craaaazy. cannot wait to see the progress

Lotus really sitting there like beerus when goku woke up from the spirit bomb in the ToP talking bout “Here it comes”

That moment when you start understanding Tekken is one of the best feelings you can get in gaming for real, is like unlocking a part of yourself

I love seeing you get pointers in the lab, love seeing the growth and learning new things myself

That initial demonstration at the start of the video is honestly more valuable than a lot of the down forward 2 just frame ten frame punish combo showcase gibberish lessons that a lot of the Tekken community throw out. I think there’s almost an element of gatekeeping in the Tekken community. Watching you go from genuinely awful to starting to get the game is a much more valuable learning tool to beginners than most of the “lessons” on RU-vid.

@16:08 literally the same thing I say every time I fight a Zafina lololololololol

The Afro tekken character arc is insane

Damn the excitement I felt with you when you said "I'M PLAYING TEKKEN" like you finally understood it. Happy for you man you gone be the best ever

You don’t lose, you learn. Glad to see you sticking with some good ass Tekken

lotus has such a calm and patient style of teaching. very effective stuff!

One more training session and I think he’s gonna reach new heights.

4:38 "They didn't wanna run the set" Yeah can't really blame them after getting completely destroyed 3-0 😂

Man seeing you get that first win at 7:30 was so satisfying after everything you been putting yourself through these last few vids LOL

Nice you're getting there. One other tip i think will get you to rank up super fast is. To side step the more you play the more you'll get a feeling for the small gaps and openings in between the different characters strings. Typically what happens is people try to attack their opponent between the gaps in their opponents strings and they almost always get counter hit. What you should start doing is side stepping in those gaps instead of attacking.

Im actually so impressed thats crazy ngl keep it up!

The growth in your skills in Tekken is a beautiful thing. This Tekken series is lit !!!

Mans afro is on his kenichi strongest deciple arc now bro and he will succeed

This series is making me want to get Tekken 8. That mirror match up to end the video was hype!

Just a quick tip. Teching grabs can be complicated. Pressing 1 or 2 or 1+2. It's different for different grabs. If you're certain the opponent is going to grab, you can duck it and go in for a while rising punish etc.

he is finally playing Tekken for real this time

i am absolutely in love with this series, this genuinely such a beautiful thing to watch unfold. Seeing Afro go from being a Specialty Boy to A Fundamental Man is amazing. Please I can't wait to see more of this as it happens

Bro that spark bro I felt it the beginning of The training paying off

Dragonov dressed as Yuske is both Ill af and hilarious 😂

Yoooo this ep actually had me hype! MINK MINK

Love the tekken content nvr played before but may buy tbh looks fun

I hope this series goes on for months. I’m loving the Afro/Lotus content

I'm loving this tekken 8 series. you're definitely improving!

Yessir, that's what I like to see. Nothing is better than when the pieces fall into place with a game like this! That flow zone be crazy when you get really good🤣

Afro there are special grab where you can’t just press 1 or 2. You have to press 1,2, or 1+2. It depends on what arms you see them reach out with. 1 is left arm and 1+2 looks like a bear hug

Lmaaooo Afro entering the villain arc 😂😂😂😂

The way I was invested in this video is INSANE, my guy really improved big time!!

AfroSenju: Mink mink mink LOW too funny 21:20

Bro about to become a tekken pro

Nah seeing afro improve so much is hype aff

These two together is hilarious 😂

Can't wait to see him hitting the wall once again 😂

Keep up the content fam!! Ur tekken skills are gettin better(slowly but surely)💪🏾💪🏾

Keep it up, this is your redemption arc.

im so proud to see you grinding. keep it up. :)

I was so proud seeing you cook last time I'm excited to see more of your progress afro good luck 😊

we need more of this afrosenju X lotus tekken content !!!

afro finally beginning to cook, never thought i would see the day 🔥🔥🔥💯💯🐐

Joker Draganov gave me nightmares in t7. Just too fkn solid. Sidenote: Excellent, Beautiful Afro. Marvelous

Can I just say I love the 180 glow up. My man got a good mentor and is flying now. But I warn you Afro there will come another storm. I hope you are prepared for it.

Been waiting for this video for a while good to see afro learning the bare minimum basics of tekken😂

It's been great seeing Afro learn Tekken, one of the most satisfying grinds there is imo. All he needs now is to move slightly better (dash a bit more instead of just walking back) and a basic combo for dragunov's common launchers (df 2 and ws 2), stuff like this took me from beginner blue ranks to almost red ranks, the red ranks are beating my ass tho so I need to improve nonetheless.

Seeing Afro progressively get better at tekken is just amazing, welcome to tekken brother

Yo these Tekken vids are amazing

Our boy got the 7 golden letters!

thats the secret Afro. . . it's always Dan 🤣🤣

7:04 now you're starting to play Tekken. excellent

Man's enthusiasm is a laugh in itself 🤣 you can't help but get into the video because of how into the game he is

This is honestly probably one of the most gentle introductions into tekken that I’ve seen, trying super hard to learn Yoshimitsu, and this has taught me so much, Lotus-Roshi sensei fr

this man speaks great truth!!!! fundamentals, there are key pokes, punishes and movement q's you need to learn that. then you set. 90% of the move list is situational so good to know but its not your core gameplay

I felt bad that he kept losing but now i realize he was just a villain the entire time. Man's trash talk is demoralizing 😂😂

I like in the previous videos how you would get bodied and frustrated understandingly so but I LOVE that you’re now learning the game and wanting to improve.

Omg watching this guy turning from total looser to decent player is so much fun

I don't comment a lot but, this ish right here man, this is awesome! Love watching the come up

YO AFRO congrats on learning tekken, having the opp shook. LMAO I CAN SEE EVERYTHING!!!! Has me cryn

He improved so much sense the last video I love it

Dude...to see you absorb what he was teaching you was great. There's no better feeling than when that light bulb bulb comes on in your head and you start to see improvement. 👏👏👏👏 Good job! I'm almost motivated to try to want to pick up another fighting game after 10 years of not playing them after seeing you.

Nah lotus and afro gotta be my favorite collabs

The commentary My Guy be having alone is worth a subscription all by itself. Utterly HILAAARRRIIIOOOUUUSSS

Happy Afro’s finally getting his Tekken legs, just hope he keeps up the P3R too

Loving this series Afro

This series is fire!!! It's making me want to buy tekken and get into it

Lmaoo vid funny asf but I'm so glad to see actual improvement good job afro

Nice shit right there, love the improvement, hope you get even better

daaammmnnnn you've gone a long way since the 1st episode, boy 😅 genuinely so proud to see how far you've come so far 😁

Lotus is a real one and Afro looking crazy skillful now 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Cant wait to see his expression when he manage connect hes first air combo

I need that doto collab the second Afro get back

Thumbnail hard asf

Afro is in his training arc and it's the most entertaining thing I've seen in awhile

Bruh 6 mins in on this video and Afro's skill has dramatically increased. Not gana lie thought the start of the video was cap but I'm seeing the growth.

Seeing lotus just hop on and stomp is something I needed to see lol sometimes I forget how talented he is

Yessir the boi afro finna go hard on this Tekken 😂

love you afro, seeing you come all this way and becoming more determined in games is really cool to watch. it's like watching an afro anime lol

I don't know why I get hyped up watching Afro playing Tekken 😂😂

“He new to this, you true to this” Line lowkey hard🔥

22:16 that grab's cancel is 1+2 (square+triangle)
