RA of Paul it´s a Joke :(
Paul is so, so slow that.
I activate the RA.
Kazuya, Azucena, etc. They hit me with their fist/kick.
Mi Ra moves forward to hit them.
They recover before my fist arrives and block it.
Then they counterattack... and I don't have time to defend myself.
In other words, even when I catch them off guard because they are hitting me, I am not guaranteed to get even the first hit from my RA because they recover faster even though they hit me and my RA is launching.

For the love of God, stop saying that Paul is fine the way he is.
Seriously, it's an insult how they destroyed Paul.

RA is a slow move and recovers terribly.

If the opponent can hit you with a fast recovering move, they can recover before your RA lands and then proceed to block.

This is normal.

Incorrect.

In T8 they changed this, still works for powercrushes but not RA.

Although OP isn't TGP, in my opinion, I don't know if Paul's RA is slow on start-up still. I tried it online and an opponent was able to fully block punish after using d/f1...lol. Perhaps it is true?

Possibly, because overall recovering when enemy did RA even if you did a single jab and held B in anticipation you'll still get hit hard

I repeat it to all of you. I'm Tekken Good Prime in T7. Go look and see if I have a single post complaining about Paul in that game.
No, I don't have it because Paul in T7 is an S rank, almost S+, and I'm not going to complain about any mechanic because the character is very powerful, even if there are other more powerful characters, I'm not going to complain.
Paul here in T8 is practically B rank, and many of the mechanics have been ridiculously nerfed.


smells like BS in here

I like how you're A) entitled to a top tier Paul for some weird reason, and B) the only complaint you can bring up is doing a scrubby panic rage art on defense and having it not work. Your character isn't top tier because his rage art isn't a good panic move now? His RA in 7 was pretty crazy how he could cancel it and do normal combos, I can see how you're spoiled by that perhaps.

Any player who actually got to the tekken god ranks would cite some actual competitive tools of his and compare them to the past game to give context. It's okay that you're not at some high tournament level, it doesn't make your opinion less valid or whatever. It's embarassing though to make several threads complaining about this singular rage art, as well as entire bad review of the game just because Paul's rage art isn't amazing. It's fascinating how much you care about this super lol.

Lol all rage arts are the same, everyone gets that happen to them if its an errant jab no matter the character. They all take equal time to activate.

They fact you come on here complaining about a rage art at all is how I know you never got anywhere close to TGP

Rage arts are all same speed. And are equally as punishable. What you are describing is just flat not true
