Bro I'm completely new to Tekken what the fuck am I getting myself into by playing Steve. I play on stick too, my damn wrist gonna have carpal tunnel syndrome with all these cancels lol
Hmm. I thought pkb df2 combos to dck 1? At the very least it combos with ws 1 Also I think instead of f21~b at the wall, run and 21~b does maybe 2 more damage? Might not hit as low as f21 though
Hi Shinblade, thanks for the guide. Im wondering if you could do an offence/ pressure guide. Im currently at flame ruler rank and I struggle to get offence going, especially after a 112 punish. I cant seem to find good pressure from it! Thanks again
@@ShinBladeTV I think I’m used to more standardised characters like Lee/AK so often after a punish I’ll check them with df1 which is uninterruptible, but after a Steve 112 punish into duck, I can check with duck f1 but that’s a high. Is there a mid I can use from ducking that’s uninterruptible?
I seem to struggle against a lot of players heavily blocking constantly i dont know if im not applying enough pressure or if im just not playing him optimally i lose to every law and drag i see. Like whats the game plan if you notice they are blocking every offensive tool?
For some reason when I do the combo at ~10:15, near of end of it, I do the f21 -> PKB into machine gun, but the combo count resets at the machine gun and just counts as a 7-hit combo, any suggestions?
i know imma get clowned on this but when i do the back 1 in practice it does not do the stun effect its just a quick hook, am i doing something wrong or is it just the stun is on counter hit?
Thoughts on using the slightly different df 1 2 1 cancel (not sure of the notation) its similar to df 1 cancel but its slightly longer it feints the 1 at the end of df 1 2 1. Is it too unsafe of a cancel?
Im gonna keep at it this is my first Tekken so Steve is really hard to use compared to me other characters ive been getting cooked in ranked and haven't struggled like this with my other Characters aside from Ling at first but i eventually got use to her but steve tough rn i play Reina, Ling, Steve,and Feng
the route I use from pkb df2 is a little different and I think it does more damage, it involves canceling pkb with db after the elbow, and then doing ws1 into the usual bnb, so if anyone in here doesnt want to have a million different routes for each combo then this one is pretty useful, I personally cannot force my brain to use pkb f1+2 yet, it's still new to me even though they added it in 7 lol edit: also would've been a cool way to show that you can cancel pkb with db too 😂
Small tip for training ducking cancels. You can do a punish setting and set it to “fast mid” instead of “record, wait 1-2 seconds, and then mid.” This way you can df 2 on block, ducking cancel, block yourself. Unless there a reason this is a bad way?
FWIW (also a noob), when I setup the bot move as a punish, I couldn't for the life of me get it safe, but when I input it as an action in defense mode I could get it. Not sure what the implication is there, I guess it's just not safe from punish? Or I'm just bad lol.
Sometimes that flicker b2 whiffs for some reason for me during the shinblade special, so if anyone else is having that same problem, you can do PB f1+2 then do b1,2, lionheart 2 to tornado and you only lose like 2 damage and a little bit of wall carry if you do the rest of the combo the same way. You might have to push them forward a little before sonic fang to make it all the way to the wall though.
a tip for practicing timing like you said with df1, you can set the second action to punish and record any move you and it will do it instantly when it can
yo @ShinBladeTV just wondering what is that easy ender😅 that you did for the b1 combo before the fang? This my first tekken I played other fighting games but combing in this game a little unintuitive for me.
I started to watched your videos, since your first steve fox guide, and I started to watch your live stream here on YT. I liked too much… Tks for your videos, I’m a Steve fox fan, and I learned to much on your videos and streams. I’m from Brazil… 🥊
this helped me so much lol, especially the holding down back for the duck cancel, idk why in my mind it was just a quick tap of d/b into back, this did wonders for my muscle memory once i consciously started holding it for a sec. thanks so much for the great video homie!
Yoooooo mad good info right here, some days my Steve feels lightning fast th e other days I can’t move. Gotta focus on those stance cancels and smash my local
@ShinBoadeTV What was that string that crumpled against the wall before forward 2 1 at 11:57? sorry for all the questions I couldn’t tell from your controller.
